Deuteronomo 16
1 Samalirani mwezi wa Abibu ndi kukondwerera Paska wa Yehova Mulungu wanu, chifukwa pa mwezi wa Abibu, usiku, Iye anakutulutsani mu Igupto.
Keep the month of Abib, and celebrate the passover to Jehovah thy God; for in the month of Abib Jehovah thy God brought thee forth out of Egypt by night.
2 Mumuphere Yehova Mulungu wanu nsembe ya Paska, chiweto chochokera pa nkhosa zanu kapena ngʼombe zanu kumalo kumene Yehova adzasankha kuti akhazikeko dzina lake.
And thou shalt sacrifice the passover to Jehovah thy God, of the flock and of the herd, in the place which Jehovah will choose to cause his name to dwell there.
3 Musadyere pamodzi ndi buledi wopanga ndi yisiti, koma kwa masiku asanu ndi awiri muzidya buledi wopanda yisiti, buledi wa masautso, chifukwa munachoka ku Igupto mwamsangamsanga kuti pa masiku onse a moyo wanu muzikumbukira nthawi imene munanyamukira ku Igupto.
Thou shalt eat no leavened bread along with it; seven days shalt thou eat unleavened bread with it, bread of affliction; for thou camest forth out of the land of Egypt in haste, — that thou mayest remember the day when thou camest forth out of the land of Egypt, all the days of thy life.
4 Yisiti asapezeke kwa masiku asanu ndi awiri pa katundu wanu mʼdziko lanu lonse. Ndipo musasunge nyama imene mwapereka nsembe madzulo a tsiku loyamba mpaka mmawa.
And there shall be no leaven seen with thee in all thy borders seven days; neither shall any of the flesh, which thou sacrificedst at even on the first day, be left over night until the morning. —
5 Musamangopereka nsembe ya Paska mu mzinda wina uliwonse umene Yehova Mulungu wanu wakupatsani,
Thou mayest not sacrifice the passover in one of thy gates, which Jehovah thy God giveth thee;
6 koma ku malo wokhawo amene Iye adzawasankhe kukhazikitsako Dzina lake. Kumeneko ndiye muzikapereka nsembe ya Paska madzulo, pamene dzuwa likulowa, pa tsiku lokumbukira kutuluka mu Igupto.
but at the place that Jehovah thy God will choose, to cause his name to dwell in, there thou shalt sacrifice the passover at even, at the going down of the sun, at the time that thou camest forth out of Egypt.
7 Muyiwotche ndi kuyidya pa malo pamene Yehova Mulungu wanu adzasankhe. Kenaka mmawa mubwerere ku matenti anu.
And thou shalt cook and eat it at the place which Jehovah thy God will choose; and in the morning shalt thou turn and go unto thy tents.
8 Kwa masiku asanu ndi limodzi muzidya buledi wopanda yisiti ndipo pa tsiku lachisanu ndi chiwiri muzikhala ndi msonkhano wa Yehova Mulungu wanu ndipo musamagwire ntchito iliyonse.
Six days thou shalt eat unleavened bread, and on the seventh day is a solemn assembly to Jehovah thy God; thou shalt do no work.
9 Muziwerenga masabata asanu ndi awiri kuyambira pamene mwatenga chikwakwa ndi kuyamba kumweta tirigu wachilili.
Seven weeks shalt thou count: from the beginning of putting the sickle into the corn shalt thou begin to count seven weeks.
10 Pamenepo muzichita Chikondwerero cha Masabata pamaso pa Yehova Mulungu wanu popereka chopereka chaufulu mofanana ndi madalitso amene Yehova Mulungu wakupatsani
And thou shalt hold the feast of weeks to Jehovah thy God with a tribute of a voluntary-offering of thy hand, which thou shalt give, according as Jehovah thy God hath blessed thee;
11 Ndipo inu, ana anu aamuna, aakazi, antchito anu aamuna, adzakazi, Alevi a mʼmizinda mwanu, alendo, ana ndi akazi amasiye okhala pakati panu, mukondwere pamaso pa Yehova Mulungu wanu ku malo amene adzawasankhe kukhazikitsako dzina lake.
and thou shalt rejoice before Jehovah thy God, thou, and thy son, and thy daughter, and thy bondman, and thy handmaid, and the Levite that is in thy gates, and the stranger, and the fatherless, and the widow that are in thy midst in the place that Jehovah thy God will choose to cause his name to dwell there.
12 Kumbukirani kuti inunso munali akapolo ku Igupto, ndiye muzitsatira malangizo awa mosamalitsa.
And thou shalt remember that thou wast a bondman in Egypt, and thou shalt keep and do these statutes.
13 Mukatha kukolola tirigu wanu ndi kupsinya vinyo wanu, muzikhala ndi Chikondwerero cha Misasa kwa masiku asanu ndi awiri.
The feast of tabernacles shalt thou hold seven days, when thou hast gathered in [the produce] of thy floor and of thy winepress.
14 Musangalale pa chikondwerero chanu, inu, ana anu aamuna, aakazi, antchito anu aamuna, adzakazi, Alevi, alendo, ana ndi akazi amasiye amene ali mʼmizinda yanu.
And thou shalt rejoice in thy feast, thou, and thy son, and thy daughter, and thy bondman, and thy handmaid, and the Levite, and the stranger, and the fatherless, and the widow, that are in thy gates.
15 Kwa masiku asanu ndi awiri muzichita chikondwererochi kwa Yehova Mulungu wanu kumalo kumene Yehova adzasankhe. Pakuti Yehova Mulungu wanu adzakudalitsani inu pa zokolola zanu ndi pa ntchito za manja anu, ndipo chimwemwe chanu chidzakhala chathunthu.
Seven days shalt thou hold a feast to Jehovah thy God in the place which Jehovah will choose; for Jehovah thy God will bless thee in all thy produce, and in all the work of thy hands, and thou shalt be wholly joyful.
16 Amuna onse azionekera pamaso pa Yehova Mulungu katatu pa chaka ku malo amene Iye adzasankha. Pa Chikondwerero cha Buledi wopanda Yisiti, pa Chikondwerero cha Masabata ndi pa Chikondwerero cha Misasa. Munthu aliyense asadzapite pamaso pa Yehova wopanda kanthu mʼmanja mwake.
Three times in the year shall all thy males appear before Jehovah thy God in the place which he will choose, at the feast of unleavened bread, and at the feast of weeks, and at the feast of tabernacles; and they shall not appear before Jehovah empty:
17 Aliyense wa inu adzabweretse mphatso molingana ndi momwe Yehova Mulungu wanu wakudalitsirani.
each [shall give] according to that which is in his power to give, according to the blessing of Jehovah thy God which he hath given thee.
18 Musankhe oweruza ndi akuluakulu a fuko lanu lililonse mu mzinda uliwonse umene Yehova Mulungu wanu akukupatsani, ndipo adzaweruza anthuwa mwachilungamo.
Judges and officers shalt thou make thee in all thy gates, which Jehovah thy God giveth thee, throughout thy tribes, that they may judge the people with just judgment.
19 Musamakhotetse chiweruzo kapena kukondera. Musamalandire chiphuphu pakuti chiphuphu chimadetsa mʼmaso anthu a nzeru ndi kusintha mawu awo kuti mlandu uyipire osalakwa.
Thou shalt not wrest judgment; thou shalt not respect persons, neither take a bribe; for the bribe blindeth the eyes of the wise, and perverteth the words of the righteous.
20 Tsatani chilungamo chokhachokha basi kuti mukhale ndi moyo ndi kutenga dziko limene Yehova Mulungu wanu akukupatsani.
Perfect justice shalt thou follow, that thou mayest live, and possess the land that Jehovah thy God giveth thee.
21 Musazike mtengo wina uliwonse wa mafano a Asera pambali pa guwa lansembe la Yehova Mulungu wanu,
Thou shalt not plant thyself an Asherah of any wood near unto the altar of Jehovah thy God, which thou shalt make thee.
22 ndipo musayimike mwala wachipembedzo pakuti Yehova Mulungu wanu amadana nazo zimenezi.
Neither shalt thou set thee up a statue, which Jehovah thy God hateth.
