Vaprista vanova vaRevhi, zvirokwazvo rudzi rwose rwaRevhi, havafaniri kuva nomugove kana nhaka pamwe chete neIsraeri. Vachararama nezvipiriso zvinopiswa zvaJehovha, nokuti ndiyo nhaka yavo.
2 Iwowa sadzakhala ndi cholowa pakati pa abale awo pakuti Yehova ndiye cholowa chawo monga anawalonjezera.
Havazovi nenhaka pakati pehama dzavo: Jehovha ndiye nhaka yavo sezvaakavavimbisa.
3 Anthu amene abwera kudzapereka nsembe ya ngʼombe kapena nkhosa, azipereka kwa wansembe gawo lake motere: mwendo wakutsogolo, nyama yamʼmasaya ndi zamʼkati.
Uyu ndiwo mugove wakafanira vaprista kubva kuvanhu vanobayira nzombe kana gwai: bandauko neshaya dzacho uye nezvemukati.
4 Muziwapatsa zamasika zoyamba za tirigu wanu, vinyo watsopano ndi mafuta, ndi ubweya woyamba pometa nkhosa zanu,
Munofanira kuvapa zvibereko zvokutanga zvezviyo, waini itsva namafuta, uye namakushe okutanga amakwai ako,
5 pakuti Yehova Mulungu wanu wawasankha iwowa ndi ana awo pakati pa mafuko anu onse kuti aziyimirira ndi kutumikira mʼdzina la Yehova nthawi zonse.
nokuti Jehovha Mwari wenyu akavasarudza ivo nezvizvarwa zvavo, kubva pakati pamarudzi ose kuti vamire vachishumira muzita raJehovha nguva dzose.
6 Ngati Mlevi asuntha achoka ku mzinda wake ndi kupita kumalo kwina kumene Yehova wasankha mu Israeli momwemo ndi mtima wake wonse,
Kana muRevhi akabva mune rimwe ramaguta enyu, kupi zvako muIsraeri kwaanenge achigara, uye akauya nomwoyo wake wose kunzvimbo ichasarudzwa naJehovha,
7 kumeneko akhoza kukatumikirako mʼdzina la Yehova Mulungu wake monga Alevi anzake onse amene akutumikira pamaso pa Yehova.
anogona hake kushumira muzita raJehovha Mwari wake savamwe vake vose vaRevhi vanoshumira ipapo pamberi paJehovha.
8 Iye ayenera kulandira zogawana zawo mofanana ndi anzakewo ngakhale kuti iye anagulitsa kale cholowa cha pa banja pawo.
Anofanira kuwana mugove wakaenzana newavo, kunyange zvake akawana mari paakatengesa nhaka yemhuri yake.
9 Mukafika mʼdziko limene Yehova Mulungu wanu akukupatsani, musakaphunzire makhalidwe onyansa a anthu a mʼdzikolo.
Kana muchinge mapinda munyika yamuri kupiwa naJehovha Mwari wenyu, musadzidzira kutevedzera nzira dzinonyangadza dzendudzi dzirimo.
10 Pasapezeke pakati panu munthu wootcha pa moto mwana wake wamwamuna kapena wamkazi ngati nsembe. Asapezekenso pakati panu munthu wowombeza kapena wochita mawula, wolosera, wochita za ufiti,
Ngapasava nomumwe pakati penyu anoita mwanakomana wake kana mwanasikana wake chibayiro chinopiswa, kana anovuka kana anoita zvamazango kana anotenda zvamashura, kana kuita zvouroyi,
11 wolodza, kapena woyankhula ndi mizimu ya anthu akufa ndi kumafunsira nzeru kwa anthu akufawo.
kana anoita zvounʼanga, kana anotenda zvamasvikiro kana anobvunza vakafa.
12 Aliyense wochita zinthu zotere ndi wonyansa pamaso pa Yehova, ndipo chifukwa cha zonyansa zimenezi Yehova adzakupirikitsirani mitundu ya anthu imeneyi.
Ani naani anoita zvinhu izvi anonyangadza pamberi paJehovha, uye nokuda kwetsika idzi dzinonyangadza Jehovha Mwari wenyu achadzinga ndudzi idzi pamberi penyu.
13 Muzikhala angwiro pamaso pa Yehova Mulungu wanu.
Unofanira kuva wakarurama pamberi paJehovha Mwari wako.
14 Mitundu ya anthu imene mudzayipirikitseyo imamvera anyanga kapena owombeza mawula. Koma inu Yehova Mulungu wanu sanakuvomerezeni kutero.
Ndudzi dzamunotorera nyika dzinoteerera kuna avo vanoita zvamazango kana kuvuka. Asi kana muri imi Jehovha Mwari wenyu haana kukutenderai kuti muite izvozvo.
15 Yehova Mulungu wanu adzawutsa pakati pa abale anu mneneri ngati ine. Muyenera kumumvera ameneyo.
Jehovha Mwari wenyu achakumutsirai muprofita akaita seni kubva pakati pehama dzenyu. Munofanira kumuteerera.
16 Pakuti izi ndi zimene munapempha kwa Yehova Mulungu wanu ku Horebu pa tsiku la msonkhano lija pamene munati, “Ife tisamvenso mawu a Yehova Mulungu wathu kapena kuona moto woopsawu, kuopa kuti tingafe.”
Nokuti izvi ndizvo zvamakakumbira Jehovha Mwari wenyu paHorebhi pazuva reungano apo makati, “Hatidi kunzwa inzwi raJehovha Mwari wedu kana kuona moto mukuru uyu zvakare, nokuti tingafa.”
17 Yehova anati kwa ine, “Zimene akunenazi ndi zabwino.
Jehovha akati kwandiri, “Zvavataura zvakanaka.
18 Ndidzawawutsira mneneri ngati iwe pakati pa abale awo ndipo ndidzayika mawu anga mʼkamwa mwake ndipo adzawawuza chilichonse chimene ndidzamulamula.
Ndichavamutsira muprofita anobva pakati pehama dzavo akaita sewe; ndichaisa mashoko angu mumuromo wake, uye achavaudza zvose zvandichamurayira.
19 Ine mwini ndidzaweruza aliyense amene sadzamvera mawu anga amene mneneriyo adzayankhula mʼdzina langa.
Kana pane munhu acharega kuteerera mashoko angu anotaurwa nomuprofita muzita rangu, ini pachangu ndichamubvunza pamusoro pazvo.
20 Koma mneneri wonena zinthu mʼdzina langa ndisanamulamulire kutero, kapena mneneri wonenera mʼdzina la milungu ina, ayenera kuphedwa.”
Asi muprofita achataura muzita rangu mashoko api zvawo andisina kumurayira kuti ataure, kana muprofita anotaura muzita ravamwe vamwari, anofanira kuurayiwa.”
21 Mwina mukhoza kumadzifunsa kuti, “Kodi tingadziwe bwanji kuti uthengawu sanayankhule ndi Yehova?”
Ungati zvako mumwoyo mako, “Tingaziva seiko kuti shoko iri rataurwa naJehovha?”
22 Ngati zimene mneneriyo wanenera mʼdzina la Yehova sizinachitike kapena kukwaniritsidwa, ndiye kuti umenewo si uthenga umene Yehova wayankhula. Mneneri ameneyo amangoyankhula za mʼmutu mwake ndiye musadzidzimuke naye.
Kana zvakataurwa nomuprofita muzita raJehovha zvikasaitika kana zvikasava chokwadi, shoko iroro harina kutaurwa naJehovha. Muprofita iyeye ataura zvomusoro wake. Musamutya.
