< Deuteronomy 12 >

1 And these [are] the ordinances and the judgements, which you shall observe to do in the land, which the Lord God of your fathers gives you for an inheritance, all the days which you live upon the land.
Awa ndi malangizo ndi malamulo amene muyenera kusamalitsanso kuti muwatsatire mʼdziko limene Yehova Mulungu wa makolo anu wakupatsani kuti mutenge pa nthawi yonse imene muti mudzakhale mʼdzikomo.
2 You shall utterly destroy all the places in which they served their gods, whose [land] you inherit, on the high mountains and on the hills, and under the thick tree.
Muwonongeretu kwathunthu malo onse a pamwamba pa mapiri ataliatali ndi pa mapiri angʼonoangʼono ndi pansi pa mtengo uliwonse wotambalala pamene mitundu imene muyilande dzikolo ankapembedzerapo milungu yawo.
3 And you shall destroy their altars, and break in pieces their pillars, and you shall cut down their groves, and you shall burn with fire the graven images of their gods, and you shall abolish their name out of that place.
Mugumule maguwa awo ansembe, ndi kuphwanya miyala yawo yachipembedzo ndipo mutenthe pa moto mafano awo a Asera: mugwetse mafano a milungu yawo ndi kufafaniza mayina awo mʼmalo amenewo.
4 You shall not do so to the Lord your God.
Musapembedze Yehova Mulungu wanu monga mmene amachitira iwowa.
5 But in the place which the Lord your God shall choose in one of your cities to name his name there, and to be called upon, you shall even seek [him] out and go there.
Koma inu muzifunafuna kumalo kumene Yehova Mulungu wanu adzasankhe pakati pa mafuko anu kuti ayikeko dzina lake ndi kukhalako. Ku malo amenewa muyenera kupitako.
6 And you shall carry there your whole burnt offerings, and your sacrifices, and your first fruits, and your vowed-offerings, and your free will offerings, and your offerings of thanksgiving, the firstborn of your herds, and of your flocks.
Kumeneko muzipititsako zopereka zanu ndi nsembe zanu zopsereza, ndi chakhumi chanu ndi mphatso zapadera zimene munalonjeza kupereka ndi zopereka zanu zaufulu ndi ana oyamba a ngʼombe zanu ndi nkhosa zanu.
7 And you shall eat there before the Lord your God, and you shall rejoice in all the things on which you shall lay your hand, you and your houses, as the Lord your God has blessed you.
Kumeneko, pamaso pa Yehova Mulungu wanu, inu ndi mabanja anu mudzadya ndi kusangalalako pa china chilichonse chimene mudzakhudza, chifukwa Yehova Mulungu wanu wakudalitsani.
8 You shall not do altogether as we do here today, every man that which is pleasing in his own sight.
Musadzachite monga tikuchitira lero lino, aliyense kumachita zimene akuona kuti ndi zoyenera,
9 For hitherto you have not arrived at the rest and the inheritance, which the Lord our God gives you.
pakuti simunafike ku malo opumulirako ndi ku cholowa chimene Yehova Mulungu wanu akukupatsani.
10 And you shall go over Jordan, and shall dwell in the land, which the Lord our God takes as an inheritance for you; and he shall give you rest from all your enemies round about, and you shall dwell safely.
Koma mudzawoloka Yorodani ndi kukhazikika mʼdziko limene Yehova Mulungu wanu akukupatsani ngati cholowa chanu, ndipo Iye adzakupatsani inu mpumulo ku adani anu okuzungulirani kuti mukhale motchinjirizidwa.
11 And there shall be a place which the Lord your God shall choose for his name to be called there, there shall you bring all things that I order you today; your whole burnt offerings, and your sacrifices, and your tithes, and the first fruits of your hands, and every choice gift of yours, whatever you shall vow to the Lord your God.
Tsono kumalo kumene Yehova Mulungu wanu adzasankhe kuti azikhalako muzikabweretsako chilichonse chimene ndikulamulirani inu: zopereka ndi nsembe zanu zopsereza, chakhumi chanu ndi mphatso zapadera, ndi chuma chanu chonse chosankhika chimene munalonjeza kwa Yehova.
12 And you shall rejoice before the Lord your God, you and your sons, and your daughters, and your menservants and your maidservants, and the Levite that is at your gates; because he has no portion or inheritance with you.
Ndipo kumeneko inu mukasangalale pamaso pa Yehova Mulungu wanu pamodzi ndi ana anu aamuna ndi ana anu aakazi, antchito anu aamuna ndi adzakazi anu, ndi Alevi a mʼmidzi yanu, amene alibe gawo kapena cholowa chawochawo.
13 Take heed to yourself that you offer not your whole burnt offerings in any place which you shall see;
Musamalitse kuti musakaphere nsembe zanu zopsereza paliponse pamene mungafune.
14 save in the place which the Lord your God shall choose, in one of your tribes, there shall you offer your whole burnt offerings, and there shall you do all things whatever I charge you this day.
Mukaphere pa malo okhawo amene Yehova adzawasankhe mwa limodzi la mafuko anu, ndipo kumeneko mukasunge chilichonse chimene ndikulamulireni.
15 But you shall kill according to all your desire, and shall eat flesh according to the blessing of the Lord your God, which he has given you in every city; the unclean that is within you and the clean shall eat it on equal terms, as the doe or the stag.
Koma mukhoza kumapha ziweto zanu mʼmizinda iliyonse ndi kudya nyama yake mmene mungafunire, ngati kuti ndi agwape kapena mbawala, monga mwadalitso limene Yehova Mulungu wanu akukupatsani. Woyeretsedwa ndi wosayeretsedwa akhoza kuyidya.
16 Only you shall not eat the blood; you shall pour it out on the ground as water.
Koma musamadye magazi. Muziwathira pansi ngati madzi.
17 You shall not be able to eat in your cities the tithe of your corn, and of your wine, and of your oil, the firstborn of your herd and of your flock, and all [your] vows as many as you shall have vowed, and your thank-offerings, and the first fruits of your hands.
Musamadyere mʼmizinda yanu chakhumi cha tirigu wanu ndi vinyo watsopano ndi mafuta, kapena za ana oyamba kubadwa a ngʼombe zanu ndi nkhosa zanu, kapena chilichonse chimene mwalonjeza kuchipereka, nsembe zanu zaufulu, kapena mphatso zapadera,
18 But before the Lord your God you shall eat it, in the place which the Lord your God shall choose for himself, you, and your son, and your daughter, your man-servant, and your maidservant, and the stranger that is within your gates; and you shall rejoice before the Lord your God, on whatever you shall lay your hand.
mʼmalo mwake, muzidya pamaso pa Yehova Mulungu wanu, kumalo kumene Yehova Mulungu wanu adzasankhira inu, ana anu aamuna ndi aakazi, antchito anu aamuna ndi adzakazi anu, ndi Alevi ochokera mʼmizinda yanu, ndipo mudzasangalale pamaso pa Yehova Mulungu wanu pa chilichonse chimene mudzachikhudza.
19 Take heed to yourself that you do not desert the Levite all the time that you live upon the earth.
Muonetsetse kuti musawataye Alevi pa masiku onse amene mukhale mʼdziko lanumo.
20 And if the Lord your God shall enlarge your borders, as he said to you, and you shall say, I will eat flesh; if your soul should desire to eat flesh, you shall eat flesh according to all the desire of your soul.
Yehova Mulungu wanu akadzakulitsa dziko lanu monga anakulonjezerani, ndipo mukapukwa nyama mumanena kuti, “Ndikufuna nyama,” pamenepo mudzadya mmene mungafunire.
21 And if the place be far from you, which the Lord your God shall choose for himself, that his name be called upon it, then you shall kill of your herd and of your flock which God shall have given you, even as I commanded you, and you shall eat in your cities according to the desire of your soul.
Ngati malo amene Yehova Mulungu wanu awasankha kuti ayike Dzina lake ali kutali kwambiri ndi inu, mukhoza kupha ziweto pakati pa ngʼombe ndi nkhosa zimene Yehova wakupatsani, monga ndinakulamulani, ndipo mʼmizinda yanuyanu mukhoza kuzidya mmene mungafunire.
22 As the doe and the stag are eaten, so shall you eat it; the unclean in you and the clean shall eat it in like manner.
Muzidye ngati mukudya gwape kapena mbawala. Onse oyeretsedwa monga mwa mwambo ndi osayeretsedwa omwe akhoza kudya.
23 Take diligent heed that you eat no blood, for blood [is] the life of it; the life shall not be eaten with the flesh.
Koma muonetsetse kuti musadye magazi, chifukwa magazi ndi moyo, ndipo musamadye moyo pamodzi ndi nyama.
24 You shall not eat [it]; you shall pour it out on the ground as water.
Inu musamadye magazi, muziwathira pansi ngati madzi.
25 You shall not eat it, that it may be well with you and with your sons after you, if you shall do that which is good and pleasing before the Lord your God.
Musamadye magazi kuti zikuyendereni bwino inu pamodzi ndi ana anu a pambuyo panu, popeza mudzakhala mukuchita zoyenera pamaso pa Mulungu.
26 But you shall take your holy things, if you have any, and your vowed-offerings, and come to the place which the Lord your God shall choose to have his name named upon it.
Koma mutenge zinthu zanu zoyeretsedwa ndi china chilichonse chimene munalumbira kupereka, ndi kupita kumalo kumene Yehova adzasankhe.
27 And you shall sacrifice your whole burnt offerings, you shall offer the flesh upon the altar of the Lord your God; but the blood of your sacrifices you shall pour out at the foot of the altar of the Lord your God, but the flesh you shall eat.
Mupereke nsembe zanu zopsereza pa guwa lansembe la Yehova Mulungu wanu, nyama pamodzi ndi magazi omwe. Magazi a nsembe zanu athiridwe pambali pa guwa lansembe la Yehova Mulungu wanu, koma nyamayo mukhoza kudya.
28 Beware and listen, and you shall do all the commands which I charge you, that it may be well with you and with your sons for ever, if you shall do that which is pleasing and good before the Lord your God.
Onetsetsani kuti muzimvera mawu onsewa amene ndikukupatsani kuti zinthu zizikuyenderani bwino nthawi zonse inu ndi ana anu chifukwa mudzakhala mukuchita zabwino ndi zoyenera pamaso pa Yehova Mulungu wanu.
29 And if the Lord your God shall utterly destroy the nations, to whom you go in there to inherit their land, from before you, and you shall inherit it, and dwell in their land;
Yehova Mulungu wanu adzachotsa pamaso panu mitundu ya anthu amene mukufuna kuwathira nkhondo ndi kuwalanda dzikolo. Koma mukawapirikitsa ndi kukhazikika mʼdziko lawo,
30 take heed to yourself that you seek not to follow them after they are destroyed before you, saying, How do these nations act towards their gods? I will do likewise.
ndipo pamene iwo awonongeka pamaso panu, samalirani kuti musakodwe mu msampha pa kufufuza za milungu yawo, nʼkumati, “Kodi anthu a mitunduwa amatumikira bwanji milungu yawo? Ifenso tichita momwemo.”
31 You shall not do so to your God; for they have sacrificed to their gods the abominations of the Lord which he hates, for they burn their sons and their daughters in fire to their gods.
Musapembedze Yehova Mulungu wanu momwe amachitira iwowo, chifukwa popembedza milungu yawoyo amachita zonyansa zamitundumitundu zimene Yehova amadana nazo. Amatentha ngakhale ana awo aamuna ndi aakazi pa moto ngati nsembe za kwa milungu yawo.
32 Every word that I command you this day, it shall you observe to do: you shall not add to it, nor diminish from it.
Onetsetsani kuti mukuchita zimene ndikukulamulirani. Musawonjezerepo kapena kuchotserapo.
