Deuteronomo 32
1 Mverani, inu mayiko a mmwamba ndipo ine ndidzayankhula; imva, iwe dziko lapansi, mawu a pakamwa panga.
Attend, O heaven, and I will speak; and let the earth hear the words out of my mouth.
2 Chiphunzitso changa chigwe ngati mvula ndipo mawu anga atsike ngati mame, ngati mvumbi pa udzu watsopano, ngati mvula yochuluka pa zomera zanthete.
Let my speech be looked for as the rain, and my words come down as dew, as the shower upon the herbage, and as snow upon the grass.
3 Ndidzalalikira dzina la Yehova. Aa, tamandani ukulu wa Mulungu wathu!
For I have called on the name of the Lord: assign you greatness to our God.
4 Iye ndi Thanthwe, ntchito zake ndi zangwiro, njira zake zonse ndi zolungama. Mulungu wokhulupirika amene salakwitsa, Iye ndiye wolungama ndi wosalakwa.
[As for God], his works [are] true, and all his ways [are] judgment: God [is] faithful, and there is no unrighteousness [in him]; just and holy [is] the Lord.
5 Koma iwo achita mosakhulupirika pamaso pake, iwo si ana akenso, koma iwo ndi mʼbado wachinyengo ndi wokhotakhota.
They have sinned, not [pleasing] him; spotted children, a froward and perverse generation.
6 Kodi mukumubwezera Yehova chotere, inu anthu opusa ndi opanda nzeru? Kodi Iye si Atate anu, Mlengi wanu, amene anakupangani ndi kukuwumbani?
Do you thus recompense the Lord? [is the] people thus foolish and unwise? did not he himself your father purchase you, and make you, and form you?
7 Kumbukirani masiku amakedzana; ganizirani za mibado yakalekale. Funsa abambo ako ndipo adzakuwuza, akuluakulu ako, ndipo adzakufotokozera.
Remember the days of old, consider the years for past ages: ask your father, and he shall relate to you, your elders, and they shall tell you.
8 Pamene Wammwambamwamba anapereka mayiko kwa anthu a mitundu ina kukhala cholowa chawo, pamene analekanitsa anthu onse, anayikira malire anthu onse molingana ndi chiwerengero cha ana a Israeli.
When the Most High divided the nations, when he separated the sons of Adam, he set the bounds of the nations according to the number of the angels of God.
9 Pakuti gawo la Yehova ndi anthu ake, Yakobo ndiye cholowa chake.
And his people Jacob became the portion of the Lord, Israel was the line of his inheritance.
10 Anamupeza mʼchipululu, ku malo owuma ndi kopanda kanthu. Anamuteteza ndi kumusamalira; anamutchinjiriza ngati mwanadiso wake,
He maintained him in the wilderness, in burning thirst and a dry land: he led him about and instructed him, and kept him as the apple of an eye.
11 ngati chiwombankhanga chimene chimasasula chisa chake nʼkumazungulira pamwamba pa ana ake, chimene chimatambalalitsa mapiko ake kuti chigwire anawo ndi kuwanyamula pa mapiko ake otambalalawo.
As an eagle would watch over his brood, and yearns over his young, receives them having spread his wings, and takes them up on his back:
12 Yehova yekha ndiye anamutsogolera; popanda thandizo la mulungu wachilendo.
the Lord alone led them, there was no strange god with them.
13 Anamuyendetsa pamwamba pa mapiri a mʼdziko ndi kumudyetsa zipatso za mʼminda. Anamudyetsa uchi wofula pa thanthwe, ndiponso mafuta ochokera mʼnthaka ya miyala,
He brought them up on the strength of the land; he fed them with the fruits of the fields; they sucked honey out of the rock, and oil out of the solid rock.
14 pamodzi ndi chambiko ndi mkaka wochokera ku ngʼombe ndi nkhosa, ndiponso ana ankhosa onenepa ndi mbuzi, pamodzinso ndi nkhosa zazimuna zabwino za ku Basani ndiponso tirigu wabwino kwambiri. Munamwa vinyo wa thovu lofiira.
Butter of cows, and milk of sheep, with the fat of lambs and rams, of calves and kids, with fat of kidneys of wheat; and he drank wine, the blood of the grape.
15 Yesuruni ananenepa ndi kuyamba kuwukira; atakhuta, ananenepa ndi kukula thupi. Anasiya Mulungu amene anamulenga ndipo anakana Thanthwe ndi Mpulumutsi wake.
So Jacob ate and was filled, and the beloved one kicked; he grew fat, he became thick and broad: then he forsook the God that made him, and departed from God his Saviour.
16 Anamuchititsa nsanje ndi milungu yawo yachilendo ndiponso anamukwiyitsa ndi mafano awo onyansa.
They provoked me to anger with strange gods; with their abominations they bitterly angered me.
17 Anapereka nsembe kwa ziwanda zimene si Mulungu, milungu imene sankayidziwa nʼkale lomwe, milungu yongobwera kumene, milungu imene makolo anu sankayiopa.
They sacrificed to devils, and not to God; to gods whom they knew not: new and fresh [gods] came in, whom their fathers knew not.
18 Inu munasiya Thanthwe limene linakulerani; munayiwala Mulungu amene anakubalani.
You have forsaken God that begot you, and forgotten God who feeds you.
19 Yehova anaona zimenezi ndipo anawakana chifukwa ana ake aamuna ndi aakazi anamukwiyitsa.
And the Lord saw, and was jealous; and was provoked by the anger of his sons and daughters,
20 Iye anati, “Ndidzawabisira nkhope yanga, ndi kuona kuti mathero awo adzakhala otani; pakuti ndi mʼbado wopotoka, ana amene ndi osakhulupirika.
and said, I will turn away my face from them, and will show what shall happen to them in the last days; for it is a perverse generation, sons in whom is no faith.
21 Anandichititsa kukhala wansanje pamene ankapembedza chimene si mulungu ndi kundikwiyitsa chifukwa cha mafano awo achabechabe. Ine ndidzawachititsa kuti achite nsanje ndi mtundu wina wopandapake; ndidzawakwiyitsa ndi mtundu wina wachabechabe.
They have provoked me to jealousy with [that which is] not God, they have exasperated me with their idols; and I will provoke them to jealousy with them that are no nation, I will anger them with a nation void of understanding.
22 Pakuti mkwiyo wanga wayaka ngati moto, umene umayaka mpaka ku dziko la anthu akufa. Motowo udzanyeketsa dziko lapansi ndi zokolola zake ndipo udzapsereza maziko a mapiri. (Sheol h7585)
For a fire has been kindled out of my wrath, it shall burn to hell below; it shall devour the land, and the fruits of it; it shall set on fire the foundations of the mountains. (Sheol h7585)
23 “Ndidzawawunjikira masautso ndipo mivi yanga yonse idzathera pa iwo.
I will gather evils upon them, and will fight with my weapons against them.
24 Ndidzawatumizira njala yoopsa, malungo woopsa ndi nthenda zofa nazo; ndidzawatumizira zirombo zakuthengo zowavuta, ululu wa njoka ya mʼphiri imene imakwawa pa fumbi.
[They shall be] consumed with hunger and the devouring of birds, and there shall be irremediable destruction: I will send forth against them the teeth of wild beasts, with the rage of [serpents] creeping on the ground.
25 Mʼmisewu lupanga lidzawasandutsa kukhala wopanda ana; mantha adzalamulira nyumba zawo. Anyamata ndi atsikana adzafa, ngakhalenso makanda ndi okalamba.
Without, the sword shall bereave them of children, and terror [shall issue] out of the secret chambers; the young man shall perish with the virgin, the suckling with him who has grown old.
26 Ine ndinanena kuti ndidzawamwaza ndi kuwafafaniza kuti anthu asawakumbukirenso,
I said, I will scatter them, and I will cause their memorial to cease from among men.
27 koma sindinafune kuti adani anga adzandinyoze, mwina adani anga sadzandimvetsetsa ndipo adzanena kuti, ‘Tagonjetsa anthuwa ndife; Yehova sanachite zonsezi.’”
Were it not for the wrath of the enemy, lest they should live long, lest their enemies should combine against them; lest they should say, Our own high arm, and not the Lord, has done all these things.
28 Iwo ndi mtundu wopanda maganizo, iwo alibe nzeru nʼpangʼono pomwe.
It is a nation that has lost counsel, neither is there understanding in them.
29 Ngati iwo akanakhala anzeru akanamvetsetsa izi ndi kuzindikira kuti mathero awo adzakhala otani!
They had not sense to understand: let them reserve these things against the time to come.
30 Kodi munthu mmodzi akanathamangitsa bwanji anthu 1,000 kapena anthu awiri kuthamangitsa anthu 10,000, kuti awagonjetse, Thanthwe lawo likanapanda kuwagulitsa, Yehova akanapanda kuwataya?
How should one pursue a thousand, and two rout tens of thousands, if God had not sold them, and the Lord delivered them up?
31 Pakuti thanthwe lawo silofanana ndi Thanthwe lathu, ngakhale adani athu amavomereza zimenezi.
For their gods are not as our God, but our enemies [are] void of understanding.
32 Mpesa wawo umachokera ku mpesa wa ku Sodomu ndiponso ku minda ya ku Gomora. Mphesa zawo zili ndi ululu wakupha ndipo maphava ake ndi owawa.
For their vine [is] of the vine of Sodom, and their vine-branch of Gomorrha: their grape [is] a grape of gall, their cluster [is] one of bitterness.
33 Vinyo wawo ndi wa ululu wa njoka, ululu woopsa wa mphiri.
Their wine [is] the rage of serpents, and the incurable rage of asps.
34 “Kodi zimenezi sindinazisunge ndi kuzitsekera mʼkatikati mwa chuma changa?
Behold! are not these things stored up by me, and sealed among my treasures?
35 Kubwezera chilango nʼkwanga; ndidzawalanga ndine. Pa nthawi yake phazi lawo lidzaterera; tsiku lawo la masautso layandikira ndipo chiwonongeko chawo chikubwera pa iwo mofulumira.”
In the day of vengeance I will recompense, whenever their foot shall be tripped up; for the day of their destruction [is] near to them, and the judgments at hand are close upon you.
36 Yehova adzaweruza anthu ake ndipo adzachitira atumiki ake chifundo pamene adzaona kuti mphamvu zawo zatha ndipo kuti palibe amene watsala, kapolo kapena mfulu.
For the Lord shall judge his people, and shall be comforted over his servants; for he saw that they were utterly weakened, and failed in the hostile invasion, and were become feeble:
37 Iye adzanena kuti, “Nanga ili kuti milungu yawo, thanthwe limene ankabisalamo,
and the Lord said, Where are their gods on whom they trusted?
38 milungu imene inkadya mafuta a nsembe zawo ndi kumwa vinyo wa chopereka chawo cha chakumwa?” Iwuzeni ibwere kuti idzakuthandizeni! Ibwere kuti idzakutetezenitu!
the fat of whose sacrifices you ate, and you drank the wine of their drink-offerings? let them arise and help you, and be your protectors.
39 “Onani tsopano kuti Ine ndine Iyeyo! Palibe mulungu wina koma Ine ndekha. Ine ndimapha ndiponso kupereka moyo, ndavulaza ndipo ndidzachiritsa, ndipo palibe angathe kupulumutsa munthu mʼmanja mwanga.
Behold, behold that I am [he], and there is no god beside me: I kill, and I will make to live: I will strike, and I will heal; and there is none who shall deliver out of my hands.
40 Ndikweza dzanja langa kumwamba ndi kulumbira kuti, ‘Pali Ine wamoyo wamuyaya,
For I will lift up my hand to heaven, and swear by my right hand, and I will say, I live for ever.
41 pamene ndidzanola lupanga langa lonyezimira ndipo dzanja liligwira pakubweretsa chiweruzo, ndidzabwezera chilango adani anga ndi kulanga onse odana nane.
For I will sharpen my sword like lightning, and my hand shall take hold of judgment; and I will render judgment to my enemies, and will recompense them that hate me.
42 Mivi yanga idzakhuta magazi awo pamene lupanga langa lidzawononga mnofu: magazi a anthu ophedwa ndi ogwidwa ukapolo, mitu ya atsogoleri a adani.’”
I will make my weapons drunk with blood, and my sword shall devour flesh, [it shall glut itself] with the blood of the wounded, and from the captivity of the heads of [their] enemies that rule over them.
43 Kondwerani, inu mitundu yonse ya anthu pamodzi ndi anthu ake, pakuti Iye adzabwezera chilango anthu amene anapha atumiki ake; adzabwezera chilango adani ake ndipo adzakhululukira dziko lake ndi la anthu ake.
Rejoice, you heavens, with him, and let all the angels of God worship him; rejoice you Gentiles, with his people, and let all the sons of God strengthen themselves in him; for he will avenge the blood of his sons, and he will render vengeance, and recompense justice to his enemies, and will reward them that hate him; and the Lord shall purge the land of his people.
44 Mose anabwera ndi Yoswa mwana wa Nuni ndipo anayankhula mawu onsewa mʼnyimbo anthu akumva.
And Moses wrote this song in that day, and taught it to the children of Israel; and Moses went in and spoke all the words of this law in the ears of the people, he and Joshua the [son] of Naue.
45 Mose atatsiriza kunena mawu onsewa pamtima kwa Aisraeli,
And Moses finished speaking to all Israel.
46 iye anawawuza kuti, “Muwasunge bwino mu mtima mwanu, mawu onse amene lero lino ndikukuwuzani kuti mudzawuze ana anu, kuti adzamvere mosamalitsa mawu onse a malamulo amenewa.
And he said to them, Take heed with your heart to all these words, which I testify to you this day, which you shall command your sons, to observe and do all the words of this law.
47 Mawuwa sikuti ndi mawu achabe kwa inu. Mawuwa ndi moyo wanu. Mukawamvera mudzakhala ndi moyo wautali mʼdziko limene mukukalitenga kukhala lanu mukawoloka Yorodani.”
For this [is] no vain word to you; for it [is] your life, and because of this word you shall live long upon the land, into which you go over Jordan to inherit it.
48 Tsiku lomwelo Yehova anawuza Mose kuti,
And the Lord spoke to Moses in this day, saying,
49 “Pita ku mapiri a ku Abarimu ukakwere pa Phiri la Nebo ku Mowabu, moyangʼanana ndi Yeriko, ndipo ukaone dziko la Kanaani, dziko limene ndikulipereka kwa Aisraeli kukhala lawo.
Go up to the mount Abarim, this mountain Nabau which is in the land of Moab over against Jericho, and behold the land of Chanaan, which I give to the sons of Israel:
50 Iwe udzafera pa phiri limenelo ndipo udzapita kumene makolo ako anapita, monga mʼbale wako Aaroni anafera pa phiri la Hori ndipo anakakhala ndi anthu a mtundu wake.
and die in the mount whither you go up, and be added to your people; as Aaron your brother died in mount Or, and was added to his people.
51 Chifukwa chake nʼchakuti inu nonse awiri simunakhulupirike kwa Ine pamaso pa Aisraeli pa madzi a Meriba ku Kadesi mʼchipululu cha Zini chifukwa simunandilemekeze kokwanira pakati pa Aisraeli.
Because you disobeyed my word among the children of Israel, at the waters of strife of Cades in the wilderness of Sin; because you sanctified me not among the sons of Israel.
52 Choncho udzalionera kutali dziko limene ndikupereka kwa Aisraeli. Sudzalowa mʼdziko limene ndi kulipereka kwa Aisraeli.”
You shall see the land before [you], but you shall not enter into it.
