Deuteronomy 5
1 And Moses called all Israel, and said to them, Hear, O Israel, the statutes and judgments which I speak in your ears this day, that you may learn them, and keep, and do them.
Mose anayitanitsa Aisraeli onse nati: Tamverani inu Aisraeli, malangizo ndi malamulo amene ndikuwuzeni lero. Muwaphunzire ndi kuonetsetsa kuti mukuwatsata.
2 The LORD our God made a covenant with us in Horeb.
Yehova Mulungu wathu anachita pangano ndi ife ku Horebu.
3 The LORD made not this covenant with our fathers, but with us, even us, who are all of us here alive this day.
Yehova sanachite pangano ndi makolo athu koma ndi ife, tonse amene tili moyo lero.
4 The LORD talked with you face to face in the mount out of the middle of the fire,
Yehova anayankhula nanu maso ndi maso kuchokera mʼmoto pa phiri paja.
5 (I stood between the LORD and you at that time, to show you the word of the LORD: for you were afraid by reason of the fire, and went not up into the mount; ) saying,
(Pa nthawi imeneyo ine ndinayimirira pakati pa Yehova ndi inu kuti ndikuwuzeni mawu a Yehova, chifukwa inu munkachita mantha ndi moto ndipo simunakwere ku phiri). Ndipo Iye anati:
6 I am the LORD your God, which brought you out of the land of Egypt, from the house of bondage.
“Ine ndine Yehova Mulungu wako amene ndinakutulutsa ku Igupto, mʼdziko la ukapolo.
7 You shall have none other gods before me.
“Usakhale ndi milungu ina koma Ine ndekha.
8 You shall not make you any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the waters beneath the earth:
“Usadzipangire chofanizira chinthu chilichonse chakumwamba kapena cha pa dziko lapansi kapena cha mʼmadzi a pansi pa dziko.
9 You shall not bow down yourself to them, nor serve them: for I the LORD your God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children to the third and fourth generation of them that hate me,
Usazigwadire kapena kuzipembedza, pakuti Ine Yehova Mulungu wako, ndine Mulungu wansanje, wolanga ana chifukwa cha tchimo la makolo awo mpaka mʼbado wachitatu ndi wachinayi wa iwo amene amadana nane,
10 And showing mercy to thousands of them that love me and keep my commandments.
koma ndimaonetsa chikondi chosasinthika ku mibado miyandamiyanda ya anthu amene amandikonda ndi kusunga malamulo anga.
11 You shall not take the name of the LORD your God in vain: for the LORD will not hold him guiltless that takes his name in vain.
“Usagwiritse ntchito molakwika dzina la Yehova Mulungu wako, pakuti Yehova adzamutenga kukhala wochimwa aliyense amene akugwiritsa ntchito dzina lakelo molakwika.
12 Keep the sabbath day to sanctify it, as the LORD your God has commanded you.
“Uzisunga tsiku la Sabata kuti likhale lopatulika monga momwe Yehova Mulungu wako anakulamulira.
13 Six days you shall labor, and do all your work:
Uzigwira ntchito zako zonse masiku asanu ndi limodzi,
14 But the seventh day is the sabbath of the LORD your God: in it you shall not do any work, you, nor your son, nor your daughter, nor your manservant, nor your maidservant, nor your ox, nor your ass, nor any of your cattle, nor your stranger that is within your gates; that your manservant and your maidservant may rest as well as you.
koma tsiku lachisanu ndi chiwiri ndi Sabata, tsiku loperekedwa kwa Yehova Mulungu wako. Tsiku limeneli musagwire ntchito iliyonse, inuyo kapena mwana wanu wamwamuna kapena mwana wanu wamkazi kapena wantchito wanu wamwamuna kapena mdzakazi wanu kapena ngʼombe yanu kapena bulu wanu kapena ziweto zanu kapena mlendo amene akukhala mʼmudzi mwanu, motero ndiye kuti wantchito wanu wamwamuna ndi wantchito wanu wamkazi adzapumula monga inuyo.
15 And remember that you were a servant in the land of Egypt, and that the LORD your God brought you out there through a mighty hand and by a stretched out arm: therefore the LORD your God commanded you to keep the sabbath day.
Kumbukira kuti unali kapolo ku Igupto ndipo Yehova Mulungu wako anakutulutsa kumeneko ndi dzanja lamphamvu ndi lotambasuka. Choncho Yehova Mulungu wako akukulamula kuti uzisunga tsiku la Sabata.
16 Honor your father and your mother, as the LORD your God has commanded you; that your days may be prolonged, and that it may go well with you, in the land which the LORD your God gives you.
“Lemekeza abambo ako ndi amayi ako monga Yehova Mulungu wako wakulamulira iwe kuti ukhale ndi moyo wautali ndi kuti zikuyendere bwino mʼdziko limene Yehova Mulungu wako akukupatsa.
17 You shall not kill.
“Usaphe.
18 Neither shall you commit adultery.
“Usachite chigololo.
19 Neither shall you steal.
“Usabe.
20 Neither shall you bear false witness against your neighbor.
“Usapereke umboni womunamizira mnzako.
21 Neither shall you desire your neighbor’s wife, neither shall you covet your neighbor’s house, his field, or his manservant, or his maidservant, his ox, or his ass, or any thing that is your neighbor’s.
“Usasirire mkazi wa mnzako. Usasirire nyumba ya mnzako kapena munda wake, wantchito wake wamwamuna kapena mdzakazi wake, ngʼombe yake kapena bulu wake, kapena chilichonse cha mnzako.”
22 These words the LORD spoke to all your assembly in the mount out of the middle of the fire, of the cloud, and of the thick darkness, with a great voice: and he added no more. And he wrote them in two tables of stone, and delivered them to me.
Awa ndi malamulo amene Yehova anayankhula ndi mawu okweza kwa gulu lanu lonse pa phiri paja mʼmoto, mtambo ndi mdima woopsa, sanawonjezerepo kanthu. Ndipo anawalemba pa mapale awiri amiyala ndi kundipatsa.
23 And it came to pass, when you heard the voice out of the middle of the darkness, (for the mountain did burn with fire, ) that you came near to me, even all the heads of your tribes, and your elders;
Mutamva mawu kuchokera mu mdimawo, phiri lili moto lawilawi, atsogoleri onse a mafuko anu ndi akuluakulu anu anabwera kwa ine.
24 And you said, Behold, the LORD our God has showed us his glory and his greatness, and we have heard his voice out of the middle of the fire: we have seen this day that God does talk with man, and he lives.
Ndipo munati, “Yehova Mulungu wathu wationetsa ulemerero ndi ukulu wake, ndipo tamva mawu ake kuchokera mʼmoto. Lero taona kuti munthu akhoza kukhala ndi moyo ngakhale Mulungu atayankhula naye.
25 Now therefore why should we die? for this great fire will consume us: if we hear the voice of the LORD our God any more, then we shall die.
Koma tsopano tife chifukwa chiyani? Moto waukuluwu utinyeketsa, ndipo tifa tikapitirirabe kumva mawu a Yehova Mulungu wathu.
26 For who is there of all flesh, that has heard the voice of the living God speaking out of the middle of the fire, as we have, and lived?
Pakuti ndi munthu uti wolengedwa amene anamvapo mawu a Mulungu wamoyo akuyankhula kuchokera mʼmoto, monga tachitiramu, nakhala ndi moyo?
27 Go you near, and hear all that the LORD our God shall say: and speak you to us all that the LORD our God shall speak to you; and we will hear it, and do it.
Pita pafupi kuti ukamvetsere zonse zimene Yehova Mulungu wathu akunena. Kenaka udzatiwuze chilichonse chimene Yehova Mulungu wathu akunena ndipo tidzamvera ndi kuchita.”
28 And the LORD heard the voice of your words, when you spoke to me; and the LORD said to me, I have heard the voice of the words of this people, which they have spoken to you: they have well said all that they have spoken.
Yehova anakumvani pamene munkayankhula kwa ine ndipo Yehova anati kwa ine, “Ndamva zimene anthuwa anena kwa iwe. Chilichonse chimene anena ndi chabwino.
29 O that there were such an heart in them, that they would fear me, and keep all my commandments always, that it might be well with them, and with their children for ever!
Zikanakhala bwino akanakhala ndi mtima wondiopa ndi kusunga malamulo anga nthawi zonse kuti zinthu ziziwayendera bwino, iwowo pamodzi ndi ana awo kwamuyaya.
30 Go say to them, Get you into your tents again.
“Pita uwawuze kuti abwerere ku matenti awo.
31 But as for you, stand you here by me, and I will speak to you all the commandments, and the statutes, and the judgments, which you shall teach them, that they may do them in the land which I give them to possess it.
Koma iwe ukhale kuno ndi ine kuti ndikupatse malamulo, malangizo ndi ziphunzitso zimene azitsatira mʼdziko limene ndiwapatse kuti alitenge.”
32 You shall observe to do therefore as the LORD your God has commanded you: you shall not turn aside to the right hand or to the left.
Choncho samalirani kuchita zimene Yehova Mulungu wanu akukulamulirani inu, musapatukire kudzanja lamanja kapena lamanzere.
33 You shall walk in all the ways which the LORD your God has commanded you, that you may live, and that it may be well with you, and that you may prolong your days in the land which you shall possess.
Muyende mʼnjira yonse imene Yehova Mulungu wanu wakulamulirani kuti mukhale ndi moyo ndi kupambana, ndi kuti masiku anu achuluke mʼdziko limene mudzatengelo.
