< Deuteronomo 10 >
1 Pa nthawi imeneyo Yehova anati kwa ine, “Sema miyala iwiri yofanana ndi yoyamba ija ndipo ubwere nayo kwa Ine ku phiri. Upangenso bokosi lamatabwa.
'At that time hath Jehovah said unto me, Grave for thee two tables of stone, like the first, and come up unto Me, into the mount, and thou hast made for thee an ark of wood,
2 Ndidzalembapo mawu amene anali pa miyala yoyamba ija, imene unayiphwanya. Ndipo iwe ukuyenera kuyika miyalayo mʼbokosimo.”
and I write on the tables the words which were on the first tables, which thou hast broken, and thou hast placed them in the ark;
3 Choncho ndinapanga bokosi lamatabwa amtengo wa mkesha ndi kusema miyala iwiri yofanana ndi yoyamba ija, ndipo ndinapita ku phiri nditanyamula miyala iwiri mʼmanja mwanga.
and I make an ark of shittim wood, and grave two tables of stone like the first, and go up to the mount, and the two tables in my hand.
4 Yehova analemba pa miyala iwiriyo zimene analemba poyamba, Malamulo Khumi amene analengeza kwa inu pa phiri paja, mʼmoto, pa tsiku la msonkhano. Ndipo Yehova anawapereka kwa ine.
'And He writeth on the tables, according to the first writing, the Ten Matters, which Jehovah hath spoken unto you in the mount, out of the midst of the fire, in the day of the assembly, and Jehovah giveth them unto me,
5 Tsono ndinatsika ku phiri kuja ndi kuyika miyalayo mʼbokosi ndinapanga lija monga Yehova anandilamulira, ndipo panopa ili mʼmenemo.
and I turn and come down from the mount, and put the tables in the ark which I had made, and they are there, as Jehovah commanded me.
6 Aisraeli anayenda kuchokera ku Beeroti Beni Yaakani mpaka ku Mosera. Kumeneko Aaroni anamwalira nayikidwa mʼmanda, ndipo mwana wake Eliezara anakhala wansembe mʼmalo mwake.
'And the sons of Israel have journeyed from Beeroth of the sons of Jaakan to Mosera, there Aaron died, and he is buried there, and Eleazar his son doth act as priest in his stead;
7 Kuchokera kumeneko Aisraeli anapita ku Gudigoda, napitirira mpaka ku Yotibata, ku dziko la mitsinje ya madzi.
thence they journeyed to Gudgodah, and from Gudgodah to Jotbathah, a land of brooks of water.
8 Pa nthawi imeneyo Yehova anapatula fuko la Levi kuti anyamule bokosi la pangano la Yehova lija, kuti ayimirire pamaso pa Yehova, kutumikira ndi kunena madalitso pa dzina lake monga amachitira mpaka lero.
'At that time hath Jehovah separated the tribe of Levi, to bear the ark of the covenant of Jehovah, to stand before Jehovah, to serve Him, and to bless in His name, unto this day,
9 Nʼchifukwa chake Alevi alibe gawo kapena cholowa pakati pa abale awo. Yehova ndiye cholowa chawo monga momwe Yehova Mulungu wanu anawawuzira.
therefore there hath not been to Levi a portion and inheritance with his brethren; Jehovah Himself [is] his inheritance, as Jehovah thy God hath spoken to him.
10 Tsopano ndinakhala ku phiri kuja kwa masiku makumi anayi usana ndi usiku monga ndinachitira poyamba, ndipo Yehova anandimveranso nthawi iyi. Sichinali chifuniro chake kuti akuwonongeni.
'And I — I have stood in the mount, as the former days, forty days and forty nights, and Jehovah hearkeneth unto me also at that time; Jehovah hath not willed to destroy thee.
11 Yehova anati kwa ine, “Pita ndi kutsogolera anthuwa pa njira yawo, kuti alowe ndi kulandira dziko limene ndinalumbira kwa makolo awo kuti ndiwapatse.”
'And Jehovah saith unto me, Rise, go to journey before the people, and they go in and possess the land which I have sworn to their fathers to give to them.
12 Tsopano inu Aisraeli, nʼchiyani chimene Yehova afuna kwa inu? Iye akufuna kuti muzimuopa poyenda mʼnjira zake zonse ndi kumamukonda Iye, kumutumikira Yehova Mulungu wanu ndi mtima wanu wonse, ndi moyo wanu wonse,
'And now, Israel, what is Jehovah thy God asking from thee, except to fear Jehovah thy God, to walk in all His ways, and to love Him, and to serve Jehovah thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul,
13 ndi kusunga malamulo ndi malangizo amene ndikukupatsani lero kuti zizikuyenderani bwino.
to keep the commands of Jehovah, and His statutes which I am commanding thee to-day, for good to thee?
14 Yehova Mulungu wanu ndiye mwini wake kumwamba ngakhale mmwambamwamba, dziko lapansi ndi zonse zimene zili mʼmenemo.
'Lo, to Jehovah thy God [are] the heavens and the heavens of the heavens, the earth and all that [is] in it;
15 Yehova anayika mtima wake pa makolo anu okha ndipo anawakondadi nasankha adzukulu awo mwa mitundu yonse pa dziko lapansi, kunena inuyo monga mulili lero.
only in thy fathers hath Jehovah delighted — to love them, and He doth fix on their seed after them — on you, out of all the peoples as [at] this day;
16 Motero chitani mdulidwe wa mitima yanu ndipo musakhalenso opulupudza.
and ye have circumcised the foreskin of your heart, and your neck ye do not harden any more;
17 Pakuti Yehova Mulungu wanu ndi Mulungu wa milungu, Ambuye wa ambuye, Mulungu wamkulu, wamphamvu ndi woopsa, amene sakondera ndipo salandira ziphuphu.
for Jehovah your God — He [is] God of the gods, and Lord of the lords; God, the great, the mighty, and the fearful; who accepteth not persons, nor taketh a bribe;
18 Iye amatchinjiriza ana amasiye ndi akazi amasiye, ndipo amakonda mlendo namupatsa chakudya ndi chovala.
He is doing the judgment of fatherless and widow, and loving the sojourner, to give to him bread and raiment.
19 Muzikonda alendo popeza inuyo munali alendo mʼdziko la Igupto.
'And ye have loved the sojourner, for sojourners ye were in the land of Egypt.
20 Muziopa Yehova Mulungu wanu ndi kumutumikira Iye. Mumukakamire Iyeyo ndi kuchita malumbiro anu mʼdzina lake.
'Jehovah thy God thou dost fear, Him thou dost serve, and to Him thou dost cleave, and by His name thou dost swear.
21 Iye ndiye matamando anu, Mulungu wanu amene anakuchitirani zodabwitsa zazikulu ndi zoopsa zimene munaona ndi maso anu zija.
He [is] thy praise, and He [is] thy God, who hath done with thee these great and fearful [things] which thine eyes have seen:
22 Makolo anu amene anapita ku Igupto analipo makumi asanu ndi awiri onse pamodzi, ndipo tsopano Yehova Mulungu wanu wakuchulukitsani ngati nyenyezi zakumwamba.
with seventy persons did thy fathers go down to Egypt, and now hath Jehovah thy God made thee as stars of the heavens for multitude.
