Deuteronomo 11
1 Muzikonda Yehova Mulungu wanu ndipo nthawi zonse muzitsata zimene Iyeyo anakulamulani, malangizo, zikhazikitso ndi malamulo ake.
'And thou hast loved Jehovah thy God, and kept His charge, and His statutes, and His judgments, and His commands, all the days;
2 Lero kumbukirani kuti si ana anu amene anaona ndi kulawa chilango cha Yehova Mulungu wanu: ukulu wake, dzanja lake lamphamvu, mkono wake wotambasuka;
and ye have known to-day — for it is not your sons who have not known, and who have not seen the chastisement of Jehovah your God, His greatness, His strong hand, and His stretched-out arm,
3 zizindikiro zozizwitsa zimene anazionetsa ndi zinthu zimene anazichita mʼkati mwa Igupto, Farao mfumu ya Igupto ndi kwa dziko lake lonse;
and His signs, and His doings, which He hath done in the midst of Egypt, to Pharaoh king of Egypt, and to all his land;
4 zimene Iye anachita kwa gulu lankhondo la Aigupto, kwa akavalo ndi magaleta awo, mmene Iye anawamizira ndi madzi a mu Nyanja Yofiira pamene amakuthamangitsani, ndi mmene Yehova anawagonjetsera kufikira lero.
and that which He hath done to the force of Egypt, to its horses, and to its chariot, when He hath caused the waters of the Red Sea to flow against their faces in their pursuing after them, and Jehovah destroyeth them, unto this day;
5 Si ana anu amene anaona zimene Iye anakuchitirani mʼchipululu kufikira pamene munafika pa malo anu,
and that which He hath done to you in the wilderness, till your coming in unto this place;
6 ndi zimene anachitira Datani ndi Abiramu, ana aamuna a Eliabu mwana wa Rubeni, pamene nthaka inatsekula pakamwa pake pakati pa Aisraeli onse ndi kuwameza pamodzi ndi katundu wawo, matenti awo ndi chilichonse chawo.
and that which He hath done to Dathan, and to Abiram, sons of Eliab, sons of Reuben, when the earth hath opened her mouth and swalloweth them, and their houses, and their tents, and all that liveth, which is at their feet, in the midst of all Israel:
7 Koma ndinuyo amene munaona ntchito zonse zikuluzikulu zimenezi Yehova anakuchitirani.
' — But [it is] your eyes which are seeing all the great work of Jehovah, which He hath done;
8 Tsono muzisunga malamulo onse amene ndikukupatsani lero kuti mukhale ndi mphamvu ndi kuti mupite kukalanda mʼdziko limene mwakhala pangʼono kulowamo mukawoloka Yorodani,
and ye have kept all the command which I am commanding thee to-day, so that ye are strong, and have gone in, and possessed the land whither ye are passing over to possess it,
9 ndiponso kuti mukhalitse mʼdziko limene Yehova analumbira kupatsa makolo anu ndi zidzukulu zawo, lomwe ndi dziko loyenda mkaka ndi uchi.
and so that ye prolong days on the ground which Jehovah hath sworn to your fathers to give to them and to their seed — a land flowing with milk and honey.
10 Dziko limene mukukalanda ndi kulowamo silokhala ngati dziko la ku Igupto kumene mukuchokera ayi, kuja mumadzala mbewu ndi kumathirira ndi mapazi anu ngati ku dimba.
'For the land whither thou art going in to possess it, is not as the land of Egypt whence ye have come out, where thou sowest thy seed, and hast watered with thy foot, as a garden of the green herb;
11 Koma dziko limene mukalande mukawoloka Yorodani ndi dziko la mapiri ndi zigwa, dziko limene limalandira mvula kuchokera kumwamba.
but the land whither ye are passing over to possess it, [is] a land of hills and valleys; of the rain of the heavens it drinketh water;
12 Ili ndi dziko limene Yehova Mulungu wanu amalisamalira. Maso a Yehova Mulungu wanu amaliyangʼanira nthawi zonse kuchokera ku mayambiriro a chaka mpaka kumapeto kwake.
a land which Jehovah thy God is searching; continually [are] the eyes of Jehovah thy God upon it, from the beginning of the year even unto the latter end of the year.
13 Choncho mukasunga mokhulupirika malamulo amene ndikukupatsani lero lino, kukonda Yehova Mulungu wanu ndi kumutumikira Iyeyo ndi mtima wanu wonse ndi moyo wanu wonse,
'And it hath been — if thou hearken diligently unto My commands which I am commanding you to-day, to love Jehovah your God, and to serve Him with all your heart, and with all your soul —
14 pamenepo ndidzatumiza mvula mʼdziko mwanu pa nthawi yake mʼnyengo ya dzinja ndi chilimwe, kuti mudzakolole tirigu wambiri ndi kuti mudzakhale ndi vinyo watsopano ndi mafuta.
that I have given the rain of your land in its season — sprinkling and gathered — and thou hast gathered thy corn, and thy new wine, and thine oil,
15 Ndidzakupatsani udzu mʼminda mwanu woti muzidzadyetsera ngʼombe zanu ndipo inuyo mudzadya ndi kukhuta.
and I have given herbs in thy field for thy cattle, and thou hast eaten, and been satisfied.
16 Dzisamalireni nokha, kuopa kuti mungakopeke mtima ndi kubwerera mʼmbuyo kuyamba kutumikira milungu ina ndi kumayigwadira.
'Take heed to yourselves, lest your heart be enticed, and ye have turned aside, and served other gods, and bowed yourselves to them,
17 Mukatero Yehova Mulungu wanu adzakukwiyirani kwambiri, nadzaletsa thambo kuti lisabweretsenso mvula ndipo dziko silidzapereka zokolola. Choncho mudzawonongeka msanga mʼdziko limene Yehova akukupatsani.
and the anger of Jehovah hath burned against you, and He hath restrained the heavens, and there is no rain, and the ground doth not give her increase, and ye have perished hastily from off the good land which Jehovah is giving to you.
18 Sungani mawu amenewa mu mtima mwanu ndi mʼmaganizo mwanu, muwamangirire pa mikono yanu ndipo muwayike pamphumi panu.
'And ye have placed these my words on your heart, and on your soul, and have bound them for a sign on your hand, and they have been for frontlets between your eyes;
19 Mawuwa muziphunzitsa ana anu, muzikamba za iwo pamene mukhala pansi mʼnyumba zanu, pamene mukuyenda mʼnjira, pamene mugona ndi pamene mukudzuka.
and ye have taught them to your sons, by speaking of them in thy sitting in thy house, and in thy going in the way, and in thy lying down, and in thy rising up,
20 Muwalembe pa mphuthu za nyumba zanu ndi pa zipata zanu,
and hast written them on the side-posts of thy house, and on thy gates,
21 kuti inu ndi ana anu mukhale mʼdziko limene Yehova analumbira kupatsa makolo anu mpaka kalekale monga umakhalira mlengalenga pamwamba pa dziko.
so that your days are multiplied, and the days of your sons, on the ground which Jehovah hath sworn to your fathers to give to them, as the days of the heavens on the earth.
22 Mukatsatira mosamalitsa malamulo amene ndikukupatsaniwa, kukonda Yehova Mulungu wanu, kuyenda mʼnjira zake zonse ndi kumugwiritsitsa Iye
'For, if ye diligently keep all this command which I am commanding you — to do it, to love Jehovah your God, to walk in all His ways, and to cleave to Him,
23 Yehova adzapirikitsa mitundu ina yonseyi inu musanafike ndipo mudzagonjetsa mitundu ikuluikulu ndi yamphamvu kuposa inu.
then hath Jehovah dispossessed all these nations from before you, and ye have possessed nations, greater and mightier than you;
24 Malo aliwonse amene mudzaponda adzakhala anu: dziko lanu lidzachokera ku chipululu mpaka ku Lebanoni, ndi ku Mtsinje wa Yufurate mpaka ku nyanja ya kumadzulo.
every place on which the sole of your foot treadeth is yours; from the wilderness, and Lebanon, from the river, the river Phrat, even unto the farther sea is your border;
25 Palibe munthu amene adzalimbana nanu. Monga analonjezera, Yehova adzachititsa kuti anthu onse mʼdziko limene mukupitalo adzachite nanu mantha ndi kukuopani.
no man doth station himself in your presence; your dread and your fear doth Jehovah your God put on the face of all the land on which ye tread, as He hath spoken to you.
26 Taonani, lero ndikuyika dalitso ndi temberero pakati panu,
'See, I am setting before you to-day a blessing and a reviling:
27 dalitso ngati mumvera malamulo a Yehova Mulungu wanu amene ndikukupatsani lero.
the blessing, when ye hearken unto the commands of Jehovah your God, which I am commanding you to-day;
28 Temberero ngati simumvera malamulo a Yehova Mulungu wanu ndi kupatuka pa njira imene ndikulamulirani lero potsata milungu ina imene simunayidziwe.
and the reviling, if ye do not hearken unto the commands of Jehovah your God, and have turned aside out of the way which I am commanding you to-day, to go after other gods which ye have not known.
29 Yehova Mulungu wanu akakakufikitsani mʼdziko mukukalandalo kuti mulowemo mukanene za madalitso pa Phiri la Gerizimu, ndi za matemberero pa Phiri la Ebala.
'And it hath been, when Jehovah thy God doth bring thee in unto the land whither thou art going in to possess it, that thou hast given the blessing on mount Gerizim, and the reviling on mount Ebal;
30 Monga mudziwa, mapiriwa ali kutsidya kwa Yorodani, kumadzulo kolowera dzuwa, kufupi ndi mitengo ya thundu ya More, mʼdziko la Akanaani aja okhala ku Araba moyangʼanana ndi Giligala.
are they not beyond the Jordan, behind the way of the going in of the sun, in the land of the Canaanite, who is dwelling in the plain over-against Gilgal, near the oaks of Moreh?
31 Mwatsala pangʼono kuwoloka Yorodani kuti mulowe ndi kutenga dziko limene Yehova Mulungu wanu akukupatsani. Mukadzalitenga dzikolo ndi kukhalamo,
for ye are passing over the Jordan to go in to possess the land which Jehovah your God is giving to you; and ye have possessed it, and dwelt in it,
32 mudzaonetsetse kuti mukumvera malangizo ndi malamulo amene ndikukuwuzani lero.
and observed to do all the statutes and the judgments which I am setting before you to day.
