Leviticus 19
1 The Lord spak to Moises, and seide,
Bwana akamwambia Mose,
2 Speke thou to al the cumpenye of the sones of Israel, and thou schalt seie to hem, Be ye hooli, for Y am hooli, youre Lord God.
“Sema na kusanyiko lote la Israeli na uwaambie: ‘Kuweni watakatifu, kwa kuwa mimi, Bwana Mungu wenu, ni mtakatifu.
3 Ech man drede his fadir and his modir. Kepe ye my sabatis; Y am youre Lord God.
“‘Kila mmoja wenu ni lazima amheshimu mama yake na baba yake, na pia ni lazima kuzishika Sabato zangu. Mimi ndimi Bwana Mungu wenu.
4 Nyle ye be turned to ydols, nether ye schulen make to you yotun goddis; Y am youre Lord God.
“‘Msiabudu sanamu, wala msijitengenezee miungu ya shaba. Mimi ndimi Bwana Mungu wenu.
5 If ye offren a sacrifice of pesible thingis to the Lord, that it be quemeful,
“‘Mnapotoa dhabihu ya sadaka ya amani kwa Bwana, toeni kwa namna ambayo itakubaliwa kwa niaba yenu.
6 ye schulen ete it in that day, in which it is offrid, and in the tother dai; sotheli what euer thing is residue in to the thridde dai, ye schulen brenne in fier.
Sadaka hiyo italiwa siku iyo hiyo mnayoitoa, au kesho yake; chochote kitakachobaki hadi siku ya tatu lazima kiteketezwe kwa moto.
7 If ony man etith therof aftir twei daes, he schal be vnhooli, and gilti of vnfeithfulnes `ether wickidnesse; and he schal bere his wickidnesse,
Kama sehemu yoyote ya sadaka hiyo italiwa siku ya tatu, itakuwa si safi, nayo haitakubaliwa.
8 for he defoulide the hooli thing of the Lord, and his soule schal perische fro his puple.
Yeyote atakayekula atawajibishwa, kwa sababu amenajisi kitu kilicho kitakatifu kwa Bwana; mtu huyo lazima akatiliwe mbali na watu wake.
9 Whanne thou schalt repe the fruytis of thi lond, thou schalt not kitte `til to the ground the corn of the lond, nether thou schalt gadere the eeris of corn that ben left;
“‘Wakati uvunapo mavuno ya nchi yako, usivune hadi kwenye mipaka ya shamba lako, wala usikusanye mabaki ya mavuno yako.
10 nethir in thi vyner thou schalt gadere reysyns and greynes fallynge doun, but thou schalt leeue to be gaderid of pore men and pilgryms; Y am youre Lord God.
Usirudi mara ya pili katika shamba lako la mizabibu, wala usiokote zabibu zilizoanguka chini. Ziache kwa ajili ya maskini na mgeni. Mimi ndimi Bwana Mungu wako.
11 Ye schulen not do thefte. Ye schulen not lye, and no man disseyue his neiybour.
“‘Usiibe. “‘Usiseme uongo. “‘Msidanganyane.
12 Thou schalt not forswere in my name, nethir thou schalt defoule the name of thi God; Y am the Lord.
“‘Usiape kwa uongo kwa Jina langu, na hivyo kulinajisi jina la Mungu wako. Mimi ndimi Bwana.
13 Thou schalt not make fals chalenge to thi neiybore, nethir thou schalt oppresse hym bi violence. The werk of thin hirid man schal not dwelle at thee til the morewtid.
“‘Usimdhulumu wala kumwibia jirani yako. “‘Usishikilie mshahara wa kibarua usiku kucha hadi asubuhi.
14 Thou schalt not curse a deef man, nether thou schalt sette an hurtyng bifor a blynd man; but thou schalt drede thi Lord God, for Y am the Lord.
“‘Usimlaani kiziwi, wala usiweke kikwazo mbele ya kipofu, lakini umche Mungu wako. Mimi ndimi Bwana.
15 Thou schalt not do that, that is wickid, nether thou schalt deme vniustli; biholde thou not the persoone of a pore man, nethir onoure thou the face of a myyti man; deme thou iustli to thi neiybore.
“‘Usipotoshe haki; usionyeshe kumpendelea maskini, wala upendeleo kwa mwenye cheo, bali mwamulie jirani yako kwa haki.
16 Thou schalt not be a sclaunderere, nether a priuey bacbitere in the puplis; thou schalt not stonde ayens the blood of thi neiybore; Y am the Lord.
“‘Usieneze uchochezi miongoni mwa watu wako. “‘Usifanye kitu chochote kile kinachohatarisha maisha ya jirani yako. Mimi ndimi Bwana.
17 Thou schalt not hate thi brothir in thin herte, but repreue hym opynly, lest thou haue synne on hym.
“‘Usimchukie ndugu yako moyoni mwako. Karipia jirani yako kwa uwazi ili usishiriki hatia yake.
18 Thou schalt not seke veniaunce, nether thou schalt be myndeful of the wrong of thi cyteseyns; thou schalt loue thi freend as thi silf; Y am the Lord.
“‘Usijilipizie kisasi wala kuwa na kinyongo dhidi ya mmoja wa jamaa yako, lakini mpende jirani yako kama unavyojipenda wewe mwenyewe. Mimi ndimi Bwana.
19 Kepe ye my lawis. Thou schalt not make thi beestis to gendre with the lyuynge beestis of another kynde. Thou schalt not sowe the feeld with dyuerse sede. Thou schalt not be clothid in a cloth, which is wouun of twei thingis.
“‘Mtazishika amri zangu. “‘Usiwaache wanyama wako wa kufugwa wakazaana na wengine wa aina tofauti. “‘Usipande mbegu za aina mbili katika shamba lako. “‘Usivae nguo iliyofumwa kwa nyuzi za aina mbili tofauti.
20 If a man slepith with a womman by fleischly knowyng of seed, which womman is an `hand maide, ye, a noble womman of kyn, and netheles is not ayenbouyt bi prijs, nethir rewardid with fredom, bothe schulen be betun, and thei schulen not die, for sche was not fre.
“‘Kama mwanaume anakutana kimwili na mwanamke ambaye ni msichana mtumwa aliyeposwa na mwanaume mwingine, lakini ambaye hajakombolewa wala hajapewa uhuru, lazima iwepo adhabu inayofaa. Hata hivyo hawatauawa, kwa sababu msichana alikuwa bado hajaachwa huru.
21 Sotheli the man for his trespas schal offre a ram to the Lord, at the dore of the tabernacle of witnessyng;
Lakini huyo mtu lazima alete kondoo dume kwenye ingilio la Hema la Kukutania kwa ajili ya sadaka ya hatia kwa Bwana.
22 and the preest schal preye for hym, and for his trespas, bifor the Lord; and the Lord schal be merciful to hym, and the synne schal be foryouun.
Kupitia kwa huyo kondoo dume wa sadaka ya hatia, kuhani atafanya upatanisho kwa ajili yake mbele za Bwana kwa ajili ya dhambi aliyotenda, naye atasamehewa dhambi yake.
23 Whanne ye han entrid in to the lond of biheest, and han plauntid therynne appil trees, ye schulen do awei the firste flouris; the applis whiche tho trees bryngen forth, schulen be vncleene to you, nethir ye schulen ete of tho.
“‘Mtakapoingia katika hiyo nchi na kupanda aina yoyote ya mti wa matunda, hesabuni matunda yake kama yaliyokatazwa. Kwa miaka mitatu mtayahesabu kwamba yamekatazwa; hayaruhusiwi kuliwa.
24 Forsothe in the fourthe yeer al the fruyt of tho trees schal be `halewid preiseful to the Lord;
Katika mwaka wa nne matunda yote ya mti huo yatakuwa matakatifu, sadaka ya sifa kwa Bwana.
25 forsothe in the fifthe yeer ye schulen ete fruytis, and schulen gadere applis, whiche tho trees bryngen forth; Y am youre Lord God.
Bali katika mwaka wa tano mnaweza kula matunda ya mti huo. Kwa njia hii mavuno yenu yataongezewa. Mimi ndimi Bwana Mungu wako.
26 Ye schulen not ete fleisch with blood. Ye schulen not make veyn diuynyng, nether ye schulen kepe dremes;
“‘Msile nyama yoyote yenye damu ndani yake. “‘Msifanye uaguzi wala uchawi.
27 nether ye schulen clippe the heer in round, nether ye schulen schaue the beerd;
“‘Msikate nywele za kichwa denge, wala kunyoa pembe za ndevu zenu.
28 and on deed men ye schulen not kitte youre fleischis, nether ye schulen make to you ony fyguris, ether markis in youre fleisch; Y am the Lord.
“‘Msichanje chale miili yenu kwa ajili ya mfu, wala msijichore alama juu ya miili yenu. Mimi ndimi Bwana.
29 Sette thou not thi douytir to do leccherie for hire, and the lond be defoulid, and be fillid with synne.
“‘Usimdhalilishe binti yako kwa kumfanya kahaba, la sivyo nchi itageukia ukahaba na kujaa uovu.
30 Kepe ye my sabatis, and drede ye my seyntuarie; Y `am the Lord.
“‘Shika Sabato zangu na kuheshimu mahali pangu patakatifu. Mimi ndimi Bwana.
31 Bowe ye not to astronomyers, nether axe ye ony thing of fals dyuynours, that ye be defoulid bi hem; Y am youre Lord God.
“‘Msiende kwa waaguzi, wala msitafute wapunga pepo, kwa maana watawanajisi. Mimi ndimi Bwana Mungu wako.
32 Rise thou bifor an hoor heed, and onoure thou the persoone of an eld man, and drede thou thi Lord God; Y am the Lord.
“‘Uwapo mbele ya mzee, simama ili kuonyesha heshima kwa wazee, nawe umche Mungu wako. Mimi ndimi Bwana.
33 If a comelyng enhabitith in youre lond, and dwellith among you, dispise ye not hym,
“‘Wakati mgeni anaishi pamoja nawe katika nchi yako, usimnyanyase.
34 but be he among you as a man borun in the lond; and ye schulen loue hym as you silf, for also ye weren comelyngis in the lond of Egipt; Y am youre Lord God.
Mgeni anayeishi pamoja nawe ni lazima umtendee kama mmoja wa wazawa wa nchi yako. Mpende kama unavyojipenda mwenyewe, kwa maana ulikuwa mgeni katika nchi ya Misri. Mimi ndimi Bwana Mungu wako.
35 Nyle ye do ony wickid thing in doom, in reule, in weiyte, and in mesure; the balance be iust,
“‘Usitumie vipimo vya udanganyifu unapopima urefu, kupima uzito, wala kupima wingi.
36 and the weiytis be euene, the buschel be iust, and the sextarie be euene; Y am youre Lord God, that ladde you out of the lond of Egipt.
Tumia mizani halali, mawe ya kupimia uzito halali, efa halali, na hini halali. Mimi ndimi Bwana Mungu wako, ambaye alikutoa katika nchi ya Misri.
37 Kepe ye alle myn heestis, and alle domes, and do ye tho; Y am the Lord.
“‘Shika amri zangu zote na sheria zangu zote, nawe uzifuate. Mimi ndimi Bwana.’”
