< Deuteronomo 12 >
1 Awa ndi malangizo ndi malamulo amene muyenera kusamalitsanso kuti muwatsatire mʼdziko limene Yehova Mulungu wa makolo anu wakupatsani kuti mutenge pa nthawi yonse imene muti mudzakhale mʼdzikomo.
These are the statutes and judgments, which ye shall observe to do in the land, which YHWH Elohim of thy fathers giveth thee to possess it, all the days that ye live upon the earth.
2 Muwonongeretu kwathunthu malo onse a pamwamba pa mapiri ataliatali ndi pa mapiri angʼonoangʼono ndi pansi pa mtengo uliwonse wotambalala pamene mitundu imene muyilande dzikolo ankapembedzerapo milungu yawo.
Ye shall utterly destroy all the places, wherein the nations which ye shall possess served their elohim, upon the high mountains, and upon the hills, and under every green tree:
3 Mugumule maguwa awo ansembe, ndi kuphwanya miyala yawo yachipembedzo ndipo mutenthe pa moto mafano awo a Asera: mugwetse mafano a milungu yawo ndi kufafaniza mayina awo mʼmalo amenewo.
And ye shall overthrow their altars, and break their pillars, and burn their groves with fire; and ye shall hew down the graven images of their elohim, and destroy the names of them out of that place.
4 Musapembedze Yehova Mulungu wanu monga mmene amachitira iwowa.
Ye shall not do so unto YHWH your Elohim.
5 Koma inu muzifunafuna kumalo kumene Yehova Mulungu wanu adzasankhe pakati pa mafuko anu kuti ayikeko dzina lake ndi kukhalako. Ku malo amenewa muyenera kupitako.
But unto the place which YHWH your Elohim shall choose out of all your tribes to put his name there, even unto his habitation shall ye seek, and thither thou shalt come:
6 Kumeneko muzipititsako zopereka zanu ndi nsembe zanu zopsereza, ndi chakhumi chanu ndi mphatso zapadera zimene munalonjeza kupereka ndi zopereka zanu zaufulu ndi ana oyamba a ngʼombe zanu ndi nkhosa zanu.
And thither ye shall bring your burnt offerings, and your sacrifices, and your tithes, and heave offerings of your hand, and your vows, and your freewill offerings, and the firstlings of your herds and of your flocks:
7 Kumeneko, pamaso pa Yehova Mulungu wanu, inu ndi mabanja anu mudzadya ndi kusangalalako pa china chilichonse chimene mudzakhudza, chifukwa Yehova Mulungu wanu wakudalitsani.
And there ye shall eat before YHWH your Elohim, and ye shall rejoice in all that ye put your hand unto, ye and your households, wherein YHWH thy Elohim hath blessed thee.
8 Musadzachite monga tikuchitira lero lino, aliyense kumachita zimene akuona kuti ndi zoyenera,
Ye shall not do after all the things that we do here this day, every man whatsoever is right in his own eyes.
9 pakuti simunafike ku malo opumulirako ndi ku cholowa chimene Yehova Mulungu wanu akukupatsani.
For ye are not as yet come to the rest and to the inheritance, which YHWH your Elohim giveth you.
10 Koma mudzawoloka Yorodani ndi kukhazikika mʼdziko limene Yehova Mulungu wanu akukupatsani ngati cholowa chanu, ndipo Iye adzakupatsani inu mpumulo ku adani anu okuzungulirani kuti mukhale motchinjirizidwa.
But when ye go over Jordan, and dwell in the land which YHWH your Elohim giveth you to inherit, and when he giveth you rest from all your enemies round about, so that ye dwell in safety;
11 Tsono kumalo kumene Yehova Mulungu wanu adzasankhe kuti azikhalako muzikabweretsako chilichonse chimene ndikulamulirani inu: zopereka ndi nsembe zanu zopsereza, chakhumi chanu ndi mphatso zapadera, ndi chuma chanu chonse chosankhika chimene munalonjeza kwa Yehova.
Then there shall be a place which YHWH your Elohim shall choose to cause his name to dwell there; thither shall ye bring all that I command you; your burnt offerings, and your sacrifices, your tithes, and the heave offering of your hand, and all your choice vows which ye vow unto YHWH:
12 Ndipo kumeneko inu mukasangalale pamaso pa Yehova Mulungu wanu pamodzi ndi ana anu aamuna ndi ana anu aakazi, antchito anu aamuna ndi adzakazi anu, ndi Alevi a mʼmidzi yanu, amene alibe gawo kapena cholowa chawochawo.
And ye shall rejoice before YHWH your Elohim, ye, and your sons, and your daughters, and your menservants, and your maidservants, and the Levite that is within your gates; forasmuch as he hath no part nor inheritance with you.
13 Musamalitse kuti musakaphere nsembe zanu zopsereza paliponse pamene mungafune.
Take heed to thyself that thou offer not thy burnt offerings in every place that thou seest:
14 Mukaphere pa malo okhawo amene Yehova adzawasankhe mwa limodzi la mafuko anu, ndipo kumeneko mukasunge chilichonse chimene ndikulamulireni.
But in the place which YHWH shall choose in one of thy tribes, there thou shalt offer thy burnt offerings, and there thou shalt do all that I command thee.
15 Koma mukhoza kumapha ziweto zanu mʼmizinda iliyonse ndi kudya nyama yake mmene mungafunire, ngati kuti ndi agwape kapena mbawala, monga mwadalitso limene Yehova Mulungu wanu akukupatsani. Woyeretsedwa ndi wosayeretsedwa akhoza kuyidya.
Notwithstanding thou mayest kill and eat flesh in all thy gates, whatsoever thy soul lusteth after, according to the blessing of YHWH thy Elohim which he hath given thee: the unclean and the clean may eat thereof, as of the roebuck, and as of the hart.
16 Koma musamadye magazi. Muziwathira pansi ngati madzi.
Only ye shall not eat the blood; ye shall pour it upon the earth as water.
17 Musamadyere mʼmizinda yanu chakhumi cha tirigu wanu ndi vinyo watsopano ndi mafuta, kapena za ana oyamba kubadwa a ngʼombe zanu ndi nkhosa zanu, kapena chilichonse chimene mwalonjeza kuchipereka, nsembe zanu zaufulu, kapena mphatso zapadera,
Thou mayest not eat within thy gates the tithe of thy corn, or of thy wine, or of thy oil, or the firstlings of thy herds or of thy flock, nor any of thy vows which thou vowest, nor thy freewill offerings, or heave offering of thine hand:
18 mʼmalo mwake, muzidya pamaso pa Yehova Mulungu wanu, kumalo kumene Yehova Mulungu wanu adzasankhira inu, ana anu aamuna ndi aakazi, antchito anu aamuna ndi adzakazi anu, ndi Alevi ochokera mʼmizinda yanu, ndipo mudzasangalale pamaso pa Yehova Mulungu wanu pa chilichonse chimene mudzachikhudza.
But thou must eat them before YHWH thy Elohim in the place which YHWH thy Elohim shall choose, thou, and thy son, and thy daughter, and thy manservant, and thy maidservant, and the Levite that is within thy gates: and thou shalt rejoice before YHWH thy Elohim in all that thou puttest thine hands unto.
19 Muonetsetse kuti musawataye Alevi pa masiku onse amene mukhale mʼdziko lanumo.
Take heed to thyself that thou forsake not the Levite as long as thou livest upon the earth.
20 Yehova Mulungu wanu akadzakulitsa dziko lanu monga anakulonjezerani, ndipo mukapukwa nyama mumanena kuti, “Ndikufuna nyama,” pamenepo mudzadya mmene mungafunire.
When YHWH thy Elohim shall enlarge thy border, as he hath promised thee, and thou shalt say, I will eat flesh, because thy soul longeth to eat flesh; thou mayest eat flesh, whatsoever thy soul lusteth after.
21 Ngati malo amene Yehova Mulungu wanu awasankha kuti ayike Dzina lake ali kutali kwambiri ndi inu, mukhoza kupha ziweto pakati pa ngʼombe ndi nkhosa zimene Yehova wakupatsani, monga ndinakulamulani, ndipo mʼmizinda yanuyanu mukhoza kuzidya mmene mungafunire.
If the place which YHWH thy Elohim hath chosen to put his name there be too far from thee, then thou shalt kill of thy herd and of thy flock, which YHWH hath given thee, as I have commanded thee, and thou shalt eat in thy gates whatsoever thy soul lusteth after.
22 Muzidye ngati mukudya gwape kapena mbawala. Onse oyeretsedwa monga mwa mwambo ndi osayeretsedwa omwe akhoza kudya.
Even as the roebuck and the hart is eaten, so thou shalt eat them: the unclean and the clean shall eat of them alike.
23 Koma muonetsetse kuti musadye magazi, chifukwa magazi ndi moyo, ndipo musamadye moyo pamodzi ndi nyama.
Only be sure that thou eat not the blood: for the blood is the life; and thou mayest not eat the life with the flesh.
24 Inu musamadye magazi, muziwathira pansi ngati madzi.
Thou shalt not eat it; thou shalt pour it upon the earth as water.
25 Musamadye magazi kuti zikuyendereni bwino inu pamodzi ndi ana anu a pambuyo panu, popeza mudzakhala mukuchita zoyenera pamaso pa Mulungu.
Thou shalt not eat it; that it may go well with thee, and with thy children after thee, when thou shalt do that which is right in the sight of YHWH.
26 Koma mutenge zinthu zanu zoyeretsedwa ndi china chilichonse chimene munalumbira kupereka, ndi kupita kumalo kumene Yehova adzasankhe.
Only thy holy things which thou hast, and thy vows, thou shalt take, and go unto the place which YHWH shall choose:
27 Mupereke nsembe zanu zopsereza pa guwa lansembe la Yehova Mulungu wanu, nyama pamodzi ndi magazi omwe. Magazi a nsembe zanu athiridwe pambali pa guwa lansembe la Yehova Mulungu wanu, koma nyamayo mukhoza kudya.
And thou shalt offer thy burnt offerings, the flesh and the blood, upon the altar of YHWH thy Elohim: and the blood of thy sacrifices shall be poured out upon the altar of YHWH thy Elohim, and thou shalt eat the flesh.
28 Onetsetsani kuti muzimvera mawu onsewa amene ndikukupatsani kuti zinthu zizikuyenderani bwino nthawi zonse inu ndi ana anu chifukwa mudzakhala mukuchita zabwino ndi zoyenera pamaso pa Yehova Mulungu wanu.
Observe and hear all these words which I command thee, that it may go well with thee, and with thy children after thee for ever, when thou doest that which is good and right in the sight of YHWH thy Elohim.
29 Yehova Mulungu wanu adzachotsa pamaso panu mitundu ya anthu amene mukufuna kuwathira nkhondo ndi kuwalanda dzikolo. Koma mukawapirikitsa ndi kukhazikika mʼdziko lawo,
When YHWH thy Elohim shall cut off the nations from before thee, whither thou goest to possess them, and thou succeedest them, and dwellest in their land;
30 ndipo pamene iwo awonongeka pamaso panu, samalirani kuti musakodwe mu msampha pa kufufuza za milungu yawo, nʼkumati, “Kodi anthu a mitunduwa amatumikira bwanji milungu yawo? Ifenso tichita momwemo.”
Take heed to thyself that thou be not snared by following them, after that they be destroyed from before thee; and that thou enquire not after their elohim, saying, How did these nations serve their elohim? even so will I do likewise.
31 Musapembedze Yehova Mulungu wanu momwe amachitira iwowo, chifukwa popembedza milungu yawoyo amachita zonyansa zamitundumitundu zimene Yehova amadana nazo. Amatentha ngakhale ana awo aamuna ndi aakazi pa moto ngati nsembe za kwa milungu yawo.
Thou shalt not do so unto YHWH thy Elohim: for every abomination to YHWH, which he hateth, have they done unto their elohim; for even their sons and their daughters they have burnt in the fire to their elohim.
32 Onetsetsani kuti mukuchita zimene ndikukulamulirani. Musawonjezerepo kapena kuchotserapo.
What thing soever I command you, observe to do it: thou shalt not add thereto, nor diminish from it.
