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 these are the commandments, the statutes, and the judgments, which the LORD your God commanded to teach you, that ye may do them in the land where ye go 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 thou mayest fear the LORD thy God, to keep all his statutes and his commandments, which I command thee, thou, and thy son, and thy son’s son, all the days of thy life; and that thy 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.
Hear therefore, O Israel, and observe to do it; that it may be well with thee, and that ye may increase mightily, as the LORD God of thy fathers hath promised thee, in the land that floweth with milk and honey.
4 Tamvani inu Aisraeli, Yehova Mulungu wathu, Yehova ndi mmodzi.
Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God is one LORD:
5 Uzikonda Yehova Mulungu wako ndi mtima wako wonse, ndi moyo wako wonse, ndi mphamvu zako zonse.
And thou shalt love the LORD thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy might.
6 Malamulo amene ndakupatsani lero ayenera kukhala mu mtima mwanu.
And these words, which I command thee this day, shall be in thy heart:
7 Muziwaphunzitsa mwachangu kwa ana anu. Muzikamba za malamulowa pamene muli mʼnyumba zanu, pamene mukuyenda mʼnjira, pamene mukugona ndi pamene mukudzuka.
And thou shalt teach them diligently to thy children, and shalt talk of them when thou sittest in thy house, and when thou walkest by the way, and when thou liest down, and when thou risest up.
8 Muwamange ngati zizindikiro pa manja anu ndi kuwamangirira pa zipumi zanu.
And thou shalt bind them for a sign upon thy hand, and they shall be as frontlets between thy eyes.
9 Muwalembe pa mphuthu za nyumba zanu ndi pa zipata zanu.
And thou shalt write them upon the posts of thy house, and on thy 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,
And it shall be, when the LORD thy God shall have brought thee into the land which he swore to thy fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give thee great and goodly cities, which thou didst not 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 thou didst not fill, and dug wells, which thou didst not dig, vineyards and olive trees, which thou didst not plant; when thou shalt have eaten and be full;
12 samalani kuti mungayiwale Yehova amene anakutulutsani ku Igupto, kukuchotsani mu ukapolo.
Then beware lest thou shouldest forget the LORD, who brought thee forth from the land of Egypt, from the house of bondage.
13 Muziopa Yehova Mulungu wanu ndi kumutumikira Iye yekha, ndipo muzilumbira pa dzina lake.
Thou shalt fear the LORD thy God, and serve him, and shalt swear by his name.
14 Musamatsatire milungu ina, milungu ya anthu ena okuzungulirani,
Ye shall not go after other gods, of the gods of the people which are around you;
15 pakuti Yehova Mulungu wanu amene ali pakati panu, ndi Mulungu wansanje ndipo adzakukwiyirani kwambiri ndi kukuwonongani, kukufafanizani mʼdziko.
(For the LORD thy God is a jealous God among you) lest the anger of the LORD thy God should be kindled against thee, and destroy thee from off the face of the earth.
16 Musamuyese Yehova Mulungu wanu monga munachitira ku Masa.
Ye shall not tempt the LORD your God, as ye tempted him in Massah.
17 Onetsetsani kuti mukusunga malamulo a Yehova Mulungu wanu, malangizo ake ndi zikhazikitso zake zimene anakulamulirani.
Ye shall diligently keep the commandments of the LORD your God, and his testimonies, and his statutes, which he hath commanded thee.
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,
And thou shalt do that which is right and good in the sight of the LORD: that it may be well with thee, and that thou mayest go in and possess the good land which the LORD swore to thy fathers,
19 kupirikitsiratu adani anu onse, monga Yehova wanenera.
To cast out all thy enemies from before thee, as the LORD hath spoken.
20 Mʼtsogolo muno, ana anu akadzakufunsani kuti, “Kodi tanthauzo la ndondomeko, malangizo, zikhazikitso ndi malamulo amene Yehova Mulungu wathu anakulamulani nʼchiyani?”
And when thy son shall ask thee in time to come, saying, What mean the testimonies, and the statutes, and the judgments, which the LORD our God hath commanded you?
21 Inu mudzawawuze kuti, “Ife tinali akapolo a Farao ku Igupto, koma Yehova anatitulutsa ku Igupto ndi dzanja lamphamvu.
Then thou shalt say to thy son, We were Pharaoh’s slaves in Egypt; and the LORD brought us out of Egypt 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 the LORD showed signs and wonders, great and terrible, upon Egypt, upon Pharaoh, and upon all his household, 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.
And the LORD commanded us to do all these statutes, to fear the LORD our God, for our good always, that he might preserve us alive, as it is at this day.
25 Ndipo ngati tisamala kumvera malamulo onsewa pamaso pa Yehova Mulungu wathu monga momwe anatilamulira ife, chimenecho chidzakhala chilungamo chathu.”
And it shall be our righteousness, if we observe to do all these commandments before the LORD our God, as he hath commanded us.
