Levitiko 26
1 “‘Musadzipangire mafano ndipo musayimike chifanizo chosema kapena mwala woti mudzipembedza. Musayike mwala wosema mʼdziko mwanu kuti muziwugwadira. Ine ndine Yehova Mulungu wanu.
“You do not make idols for yourselves; and you do not set up carved image or standing image for yourselves; and you do not put a stone of imagery in your land, to bow yourselves to it; for I [am] your God YHWH.
2 “‘Muzisunga Masabata anga ndipo muzilemekeza malo anga wopatulika. Ine ndine Yehova.
You keep My Sabbaths and you revere My sanctuary; I [am] YHWH.
3 “‘Mukamayenda motsata malangizo anga ndi kumvera mosamalitsa malamulo anga,
If you walk in My statutes, and you keep My commands, and have done them,
4 ndidzakupatsani mvula pa nyengo yake. Nthaka yanu idzabala zokolola zake, ndipo mitengo ya mʼmunda idzabala zipatso zake.
then I have given your rains in their season, and the land has given her produce, and the tree of the field gives its fruit;
5 Mudzakhala mukupuntha tirigu mpaka nthawi yothyola mphesa, ndipo mudzakhala mukuthyola mphesa mpaka nthawi yodzala. Mudzadya chakudya chanu mpaka kukhuta ndipo mudzakhala mʼdziko lanu mwamtendere.
and the threshing has reached to you, [and] the gathering, and the gathering reaches the sowing-[time]; and you have eaten your bread to satiety, and have dwelt confidently in your land.
6 “‘Ndidzabweretsa mtendere mʼdziko lanu, ndipo muzidzagona popanda wokuopsezani. Ndidzachotsa nyama zakuthengo zoopsa mʼdziko mwanu, ndipo mʼdzikomo simudzakhala nkhondo.
And I have given peace in the land, and you have lain down, and there is none causing trembling; and I have caused evil beasts to cease out of the land, and the sword does not pass over into your land.
7 Mudzapirikitsa adani anu, ndipo mudzawagonjetsa ndi lupanga pamaso panu.
And you have pursued your enemies, and they have fallen before you by the sword;
8 Anthu asanu mwa inu adzapirikitsa anthu 100, ndipo anthu 100 mwa inu adzathamangitsa anthu 10,000, ndipo adani anuwo mudzawagonjetsa ndi lupanga.
and five of you have pursued one hundred, and one hundred of you pursue a myriad; and your enemies have fallen before you by the sword.
9 “‘Ndidzakukumbukirani ndi kukupatsani ana ambiri ndi kukuchulukitsani. Ndidzasunga pangano langa ndi inu.
And I have turned to you, and have made you fruitful, and have multiplied you, and have established My covenant with you;
10 Mudzakhala mukudyabe chakudya chogonera ndipo mudzachotse chakudyacho mʼnkhokwe kuti mupezemo malo woyika chakudya china chatsopano.
and you have eaten old [store], and you bring out the old because of the new.
11 Ndidzakhala pakati panu, ndipo sindidzayipidwa nanu.
And I have given My Dwelling Place in your midst, and My soul does not loathe you;
12 Ine ndidzayendayenda pakati panu ndipo ndidzakhala Mulungu wanu. Inu mudzakhala anthu anga.
and I have habitually walked in your midst, and have become your God, and you become My people;
13 Ine ndine Yehova Mulungu wanu amene ndinakutulutsani mʼdziko la Igupto kuti musakhalenso akapolo a Aigupto. Ndinadula mipiringidzo ya goli lanu ndi kukuthandizani kuti muziyenda momasuka.
I [am] your God YHWH, who has brought you out of the land of the Egyptians, from being their servants; and I break the bars of your yoke and cause you to go erect.
14 “‘Koma mukadzapanda kundimvera ndi kuphwanya malamulo anga onsewa,
And if you do not listen to Me and do not do all these commands,
15 ndipo ngati mudzanyoza malangizo anga ndi kunyansidwa ndi malamulo anga, ndi kulephera kumvera zonse zimene ndakulamulani, ndi kuswa pangano langa,
and if you kick at My statutes, and if your soul loathes My judgments, so as not to do all My commands—to your breaking My covenant—
16 Ine ndidzakuchitirani izi: ndidzabweretsa zoopsa zadzidzidzi monga chifuwa chachikulu chowondetsa ndiponso malungo amene adzawononga maso ndi kufowoketsa moyo wanu. Mudzangovutika kudzala mbewu zanu chifukwa adani anu adzazidya.
I also do this to you: I have even appointed trouble over you, the consumption, and the burning fever, consuming eyes, and causing pain of soul; and you have sowed your seed in vain, and your enemies have eaten it;
17 Ndidzakufulatirani, kotero kuti adani anu adzakugonjetsani. Odana nanu adzakulamulirani ndipo inu muzidzagothawa popanda wokupirikitsani.
and I have set My face against you, and you have been struck before your enemies; and those hating you have ruled over you, and you have fled when there is none pursuing you.
18 “‘Ngati simudzandimvera mutaona zonsezi, ndidzakulanganinso mochulukitsa kasanu ndi kawiri chifukwa cha kuchimwa kwanu.
And if up to these you [still] do not listen to Me—then I have added to discipline you sevenfold for your sins;
19 Ndidzathyola mphamvu zanu zimene mukunyadirazo, ndipo ndidzasandutsa mitambo kuti ikhale yowuma ngati chitsulo, ndiponso nthaka yanu kuti ikhale ngati mkuwa.
and I have broken the pride of your strength, and have made your heavens as iron, and your earth as bronze;
20 Mphamvu zanu zidzapita pachabe chifukwa nthaka yanu sidzabala kanthu, ngakhale mitengo yake sidzabala zipatso zake.
and your strength has been consumed in vain, and your land does not give her produce, and the tree of the land does not give its fruit.
21 “‘Ngati mudzapitirira kutsutsana nane ndi kukana kundimvera, ndidzachulukitsa masautso anu kasanu ndi kawiri molingana ndi machimo anu.
And if you walk with Me [in] opposition, and are not willing to listen to Me, then I have added to you a plague sevenfold, according to your sins,
22 Ndidzabweretsa zirombo zolusa pakati panu, ndipo zidzakulandani ana anu ndi kuwononga ngʼombe zanu. Choncho zidzachepetsa chiwerengero chanu kotero kuti mʼnjira mwanu simudzapita anthu.
and sent the beast of the field against you, and it has bereaved you; and I have cut off your livestock, and have made you few, and your ways have been desolate.
23 “‘Mukadzapanda kutembenukira kwa Ine ngakhale nditakulangani motere, ndi kumachitabe zotsutsana ndi Ine,
And if by these you are not instructed by Me, and have walked with Me [in] opposition,
24 Ine mwini ndidzalimbana nanu, ndipo ndidzakulangani mochulukitsa kasanu ndi kawiri chifukwa cha machimo anu.
then I have walked—I also—with you in opposition, and have struck you, even I, sevenfold for your sins;
25 Ndipo ndidzabweretsa lupanga pa inu ndi kukulangani chifukwa chophwanya pangano langa. Mukadzasonkhana mʼmizinda yanu, ndidzatumiza miliri pakati panu ndipo ndidzakuperekani mʼmanja mwa adani anu.
and I have brought in a sword on you, executing the vengeance of a covenant; and you have been gathered to your cities, and I have sent pestilence into your midst, and you have been given into the hand of an enemy.
26 Ndikadzachepetsa buledi wanu, akazi khumi adzaphika buledi wawo mu uvuni umodzi, ndipo adzakugawirani bulediyo pangʼonopangʼono. Choncho mudzadya koma wosakhuta.
In My breaking your staff of bread, then ten women have baked your bread in one oven, and have given back your bread by weight; and you have eaten and are not satisfied.
27 “‘Mukadzapanda kundimvera ngakhale nditakulangani motere, ndi kumatsutsanabe ndi Ine,
And if for this you do not listen to Me, and have walked with Me in opposition,
28 pamenepo ndidzalimbana nanu mwaukali, ndipo Ine mwini ndidzakulangani mochulukitsa kasanu ndi kawiri chifukwa cha kuchimwa kwanu.
then I have walked with you in the fury of opposition, and have disciplined you, even I, sevenfold for your sins.
29 Mudzadya ana anu aamuna ndiponso mudzadya ana anu aakazi.
And you have eaten [the] flesh of your sons; and you eat [the] flesh of your daughters.
30 Ine ndidzawononga malo anu opembedzera mafano a ku mapiri. Ndidzagwetsa maguwa anu ofukizira lubani, ndipo ndidzawunjika pamodzi mitembo ya mafano anu wopanda moyowo, ndipo ndidzanyansidwa nanu.
And I have destroyed your high places, and cut down your images, and have put your carcasses on the carcasses of your idols, and My soul has loathed you;
31 Ndidzasandutsa mizinda yanu kukhala mabwinja ndi kuwononga malo anu wopatulika. Sindidzakondweranso ndi fungo lokoma la zopereka zanu.
and I have made your cities a ruin, and have made your sanctuaries desolate, and I do not smell your refreshing fragrance;
32 Ndidzawononga dziko kotero kuti adani anu mʼmenemo adzadabwa.
and I have made the land desolate, and your enemies who are dwelling in it have been astonished at it.
33 Ndidzakubalalitsani pakati pa mitundu ina ya anthu ndipo ndidzasolola lupanga langa ndi kukupirikitsani. Dziko lanu lidzawonongedwa, ndipo mizinda yanu idzasanduka mabwinja.
And I scatter you among nations, and have drawn out a sword after you, and your land has been a desolation, and your cities are a ruin.
34 Nthawi imeneyo nthaka idzasangalalira kuyipumitsa kwake nthawi yonse imene idzakhala yosalimidwa, pamene inu mudzakhala muli mʼdziko la adani anu. Pa nthawi imeneyo dziko lidzapumula ndi kukondwerera kulipumuza kwake.
Then the land enjoys its Sabbaths all the days of the desolation—and you [are] in the land of your enemies; then the land rests, and has enjoyed its Sabbaths;
35 Nthawi zonse pamene dzikolo lidzakhala lopanda anthu, nthaka idzapumula. Mpumulo umenewu udzakhala umene nthakayo sinapumulepo pa nthawi zimene inu munkapumula muli mʼdzikomo.
it rests all the days of the desolation [for] that which it has not rested in your Sabbaths, in your dwelling on it.
36 “‘Kunena za amene adzatsale, ndidzayika mantha mʼmitima mwawo mʼdziko la adani awo kotero kuti adzathawa ngakhale mtswatswa wa tsamba lowuluka ndi mphepo. Adzathawa ngati akuthawa lupanga, ndipo adzagwa pansi ngakhale padzakhale wopanda kuwapirikitsa.
And those who are left of you—I have also brought a faintness into their heart in the lands of their enemies, and the sound of a leaf driven away has pursued them, and they have fled [as in] flight from a sword—and they have fallen, and there is none pursuing.
37 Iwo adzaphunthwitsana ngati akuthawa nkhondo, ngakhale padzakhale popanda wowapirikitsa. Choncho simudzatha kuyima pamaso pa adani anu.
And they have stumbled on one another, as from the face of a sword, and there is none pursuing, and you have no standing before your enemies,
38 Mudzatheratu pakati pa mitundu ya anthu. Dziko la adani anu lidzakudyani.
and you have perished among the nations, and the land of your enemies has consumed you.
39 Ngakhale iwo amene adzatsale adzatheratu mʼdziko la adani awo chifukwa cha machimo awo ndi machimo a makolo awo.
And those who are left of you—they consume away in their iniquity, in the lands of your enemies; and also in the iniquities of their fathers, they consume away with them.
40 “‘Tsono adzawulula machimo awo ndi machimo a makolo awo, kusakhulupirika kwawo ndi mayendedwe awo otsutsana nane,
And [if] they have confessed their iniquity and the iniquity of their fathers, in their trespass which they have trespassed against Me, and also that they have walked with Me in opposition,
41 zomwe zinandipangitsa kuwafulatira ndi kuwapereka mʼmanja mwa adani awo. Ndipo mitima yawo yowumayo ikadzadzichepetsa ndi kuvomera kulangidwa chifukwa cha machimo awo,
when I also walk in opposition to them, and have brought them into the land of their enemies—if then their uncircumcised heart is humbled, and then they accept the punishment of their iniquity—
42 Ine ndidzakumbukira pangano langa ndi Yakobo, pangano langa ndi Isake, pangano langa ndi Abrahamu. Ndidzakumbukiranso dzikolo.
then I have remembered My covenant [with] Jacob, and also My covenant [with] Isaac, and also My covenant [with] Abraham I remember, and I remember the land.
43 Pakuti adzasiya dziko lawo lopanda anthu, nthaka idzakondwerera zaka zake zoyipumuza pamene iwo kudzakhala kulibe. Koma adzalangidwa chifukwa cha machimo awo popeza anakana malamulo anga ndipo mitima yawo inkayipidwa nawo malangizo anga.
And the land is left by them, and enjoys its Sabbaths, in the desolation without them, and they accept the punishment of their iniquity, because, even because, they have kicked against My judgments, and their soul has loathed My statutes,
44 Komabe ngakhale adzachite zonsezi ali mʼdziko la adani awo, Ine sindidzawakana kapena kuyipidwa nawo kwakuti nʼkuwawononga kwathunthu ndi kuthetsa pangano langa ndi iwo. Ine ndine Yehova Mulungu wawo.
and also even this, in their being in the land of their enemies, I have not rejected them, nor have I loathed them, to consume them, to break My covenant with them; for I [am] their God YHWH—
45 Koma powachitira chifundo, ndidzakumbukira pangano langa ndi makolo awo amene ndinawatulutsa mʼdziko la Igupto mitundu ina ikuona kuti Ine ndikhale Mulungu wawo. Ine ndine Yehova.’”
then I have remembered for them the covenant of the ancestors, whom I brought forth out of the land of Egypt before the eyes of the nations to become their God; I [am] YHWH.”
46 Amenewa ndi malamulo ndi malangizo amene Yehova anawayika pakati pa Iye mwini ndi Aisraeli pa Phiri la Sinai kudzera mwa Mose.
These [are] the statutes, and the judgments, and the laws, which YHWH has given between Him and the sons of Israel in Mount Sinai, by the hand of Moses.
