< Deuteronomo 6 >

1 Awa ndi malamulo, malangizo ndi ziphunzitso zimene Yehova Mulungu wanu anandilamula kuti ndikuphunzitseni kuti mukawatsatire mʼdziko limene mukuwolokera Yorodani kuti mukalitenge,
Now this is the mitzvot ·instructions·, the statutes, and the judgments, which Adonai your God enjoined to teach you, that you might do them in the land where you go over to possess it;
2 kuti inuyo, ana anu, ndi zidzukulu zanu mʼtsogolomo mudzaope Yehova Mulungu wanu moyo wanu wonse posunga malangizo ndi malamulo ake onse amene ndinakupatsani inu kuti musangalale ndi moyo wautali.
that you might fear Adonai your God, to keep all his statutes and his mitzvot ·instructions·, which I enjoin you; you, and your son, and your son’s son, all the days of your life; and that your days may be prolonged.
3 Mvera Israeli ndipo usamalitse kuchita malamulowa kuti zinthu zikuyendere bwino mʼdziko ndi kuti muchuluke kwambiri mʼdziko loyenda mkaka ndi uchi monga momwe Yehova Mulungu wa makolo anu anakulonjezerani.
Sh'ma ·Hear understand obey· therefore, Israel [God prevails], and observe to do it; that it may be well with you, and that you may increase mightily, as Adonai, the God of your fathers, has promised to you, in a land flowing with milk and honey.
4 Tamvani inu Aisraeli, Yehova Mulungu wathu, Yehova ndi mmodzi.
Sh'ma ·Hear obey·, Israel [God prevails]: Yahweh is our God. Yahweh is echad ·one, one unity·.
5 Uzikonda Yehova Mulungu wako ndi mtima wako wonse, ndi moyo wako wonse, ndi mphamvu zako zonse.
You shall את 'ahav ·affectionately love· Yahweh your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your might.
6 Malamulo amene ndakupatsani lero ayenera kukhala mu mtima mwanu.
These words, which I enjoin you today, shall be on your heart;
7 Muziwaphunzitsa mwachangu kwa ana anu. Muzikamba za malamulowa pamene muli mʼnyumba zanu, pamene mukuyenda mʼnjira, pamene mukugona ndi pamene mukudzuka.
and you shall teach them diligently to your children, and shall talk of them when you sit in your house, and when you walk by the way, and when you lie down, and when you rise up.
8 Muwamange ngati zizindikiro pa manja anu ndi kuwamangirira pa zipumi zanu.
You shall bind them for a sign on your hand, and they shall be for frontlets between your eyes.
9 Muwalembe pa mphuthu za nyumba zanu ndi pa zipata zanu.
You shall write them on the door posts of your house, and on your gates.
10 Pamene Yehova Mulungu wanu akukulowetsani ndi kukupatsani dziko limene analumbirira makolo anu Abrahamu, Isake ndi Yakobo, dziko lokhala ndi mizinda ikuluikulu imene inu simunamange,
It shall be, when Adonai your God brings you into the land which he swore to your fathers, to Abraham [Father of a multitude], to Isaac [Laughter], and to Jacob [Supplanter], to give you, great and goodly cities, which you didn’t build,
11 nyumba zodzaza ndi zinthu za mitundu yonse zimene inu simunayikemo, zitsime zimene inu simunakumbe, minda ya mpesa ndi mitengo ya olivi zimene inuyo simunadzale, tsono mukadya ndi kukhuta,
and houses full of all good things, which you didn’t fill, and cisterns dug out, which you didn’t dig, vineyards and olive trees, which you didn’t plant, and you shall eat and be full;
12 samalani kuti mungayiwale Yehova amene anakutulutsani ku Igupto, kukuchotsani mu ukapolo.
then beware lest you forget Adonai, who brought you out of the land of Egypt [Abode of slavery], out of the house of bondage.
13 Muziopa Yehova Mulungu wanu ndi kumutumikira Iye yekha, ndipo muzilumbira pa dzina lake.
You shall fear Adonai your God; and you shall abad ·serve· him, and shall swear by his name.
14 Musamatsatire milungu ina, milungu ya anthu ena okuzungulirani,
You shall not go after other deities, of the deities of the peoples who are around you;
15 pakuti Yehova Mulungu wanu amene ali pakati panu, ndi Mulungu wansanje ndipo adzakukwiyirani kwambiri ndi kukuwonongani, kukufafanizani mʼdziko.
for Adonai your God among you is El Kana' [Jealous God]; lest the anger of Adonai your God be kindled against you, and he destroy you from off the face of the earth.
16 Musamuyese Yehova Mulungu wanu monga munachitira ku Masa.
You shall not tempt Adonai your God, as you tempted him in Massah [Testing].
17 Onetsetsani kuti mukusunga malamulo a Yehova Mulungu wanu, malangizo ake ndi zikhazikitso zake zimene anakulamulirani.
You shall diligently keep the mitzvot ·instructions· of Adonai your God, and his testimonies, and his statutes, which he has enjoined you.
18 Chitani zoyenera ndi zabwino pamaso pa Yehova, kuti zikuyendereni bwino ndi kuti mukhoza kukalowa ndi kulanda dziko labwinolo limene Yehova analonjeza molumbira kwa makolo anu,
You shall do that which is right and good in Adonai’s sight; that it may be well with you, and that you may go in and possess the good land which Adonai swore to your fathers,
19 kupirikitsiratu adani anu onse, monga Yehova wanenera.
to thrust out all your enemies from before you, as Adonai has spoken.
20 Mʼtsogolo muno, ana anu akadzakufunsani kuti, “Kodi tanthauzo la ndondomeko, malangizo, zikhazikitso ndi malamulo amene Yehova Mulungu wathu anakulamulani nʼchiyani?”
Some day when your child asks you in time to come, saying, “What do the testimonies, the statutes, and the judgments, which Yahweh Eloheikhem [Yahweh our God] has enjoined you mean?”
21 Inu mudzawawuze kuti, “Ife tinali akapolo a Farao ku Igupto, koma Yehova anatitulutsa ku Igupto ndi dzanja lamphamvu.
then you shall tell your child, “We were Pharaoh’s slaves in Egypt [Abode of slavery]. Adonai brought us out of Egypt [Abode of slavery] with a mighty hand;
22 Ifeyo tikuona Yehova anatumiza zizindikiro zozizwitsa ndi zodabwitsa, zazikulu ndi zoopsa, pa Aigupto ndi Farao pamodzi ndi banja lake lonse.
and Adonai showed great and awesome signs and wonders on Egypt [Abode of slavery], on Pharaoh, and on all his house, before our eyes;
23 Koma anatitulutsa kumeneko ndi kutilowetsa kuno natipatsa dziko limene analonjeza mwa lumbiro kwa makolo athu.
and he brought us out from there, that he might bring us in, to give us the land which he swore to our fathers.
24 Yehova anatilamula kuti tizimvera malamulo onsewa, kuti tizimuopa kuti zinthu zizitiyendera bwino pa moyo wathu monga momwe zilili leromu.
Adonai enjoined us to do all these statutes, to fear Yahweh Eloheikhem [Yahweh our God], for our good always, that he might preserve us alive, as we are today.
25 Ndipo ngati tisamala kumvera malamulo onsewa pamaso pa Yehova Mulungu wathu monga momwe anatilamulira ife, chimenecho chidzakhala chilungamo chathu.”
It shall be righteousness to us, if we observe to do all this mitzvot ·instructions· before Yahweh Eloheikhem [Yahweh our God], as he has enjoined us.”
