Deuteronomy 10
1 At that time Jehovah said unto me, Hew for thyself two tables of stone like the first, and come up unto me into the mountain, and make thee an ark of wood;
Mu kiseera ekyo Mukama Katonda n’aŋŋamba nti, “Tema mu jjinja ebipande bibiri eby’amayinja ebifaanana nga biri ebyasooka, era obajje n’Essanduuko ey’omuti, olyoke oyambuke gye ndi ku lusozi.
2 and I will write on the tables the words that were on the first tables which thou didst break, and thou shalt lay them in the ark.
Nzija kuwandiika ku bipande ebyo ebigambo ebyali ku bipande ebyasooka, bye wayasa; olyoke obiteeke mu Ssanduuko.”
3 And I made an ark of acacia-wood, and hewed two tables of stone like the first, and went up the mountain with the two tables in my hand.
Bwe ntyo ne mbajja Essanduuko mu muti ogw’akasiya, ne ntema ne mu jjinja ebipande bibiri eby’amayinja nga bifaanana nga biri ebyasooka, ne ndyoka nyambuka ku lusozi nga nkutte ebipande byombi mu ngalo zange.
4 And he wrote on the tables, as the first writing, the ten words which Jehovah spoke unto you on the mountain, from the midst of the fire, on the day of the assembly, and Jehovah gave them unto me.
Mukama Katonda n’awandiika ku bipande ebyo ebigambo bye yali awandiise ku bipande biri ebyasooka, ge Mateeka Ekkumi ge yali abalangiridde ku lusozi ng’ali wakati mu muliro, ku lunaku lwe mwakuŋŋaanirako. Mukama Katonda n’abinkwasa.
5 And I turned and came down from the mountain, and put the tables in the ark which I had made; — and they are there, as Jehovah commanded me.
Bwe ntyo ne nkyusa obuwufu ne nzikirira okuva ku lusozi, ebipande ne mbiteeka mu Ssanduuko gye nabajja, nga Mukama Katonda bwe yandagira, ne kaakano mwe biri.
6 (And the children of Israel took their journey from Beeroth-Bene-Jaakan to Moserah: there Aaron died, and there he was buried; and Eleazar his son exercised the priesthood in his stead.
Abaana ba Isirayiri ne batambula okuva e Beeru Beneyaakani ne batuuka e Mosera. Awo Alooni we yafiira era we yaziikibwa. Mutabani we Eriyazaali n’amusikira n’atandika okukola emirimu gya Alooni egy’Obwakabona.
7 From thence they journeyed unto Gudgodah; and from Gudgodah to Jotbathah, a land of water-brooks.)
Bwe baava awo ne batambula okutuuka e Gudugoda; bwe baava e Gudugoda ne batuuka e Yotubasa, nga mu nsi eyo mulimu emigga egyali gikulukuta amazzi.
8 At that time Jehovah separated the tribe of Levi, to bear the ark of the covenant of Jehovah, to stand before Jehovah to do service unto him, and to bless in his name, unto this day.
Mu kiseera ekyo Mukama n’ayawula ekika kya Leevi okusitulanga Essanduuko ey’Endagaano ya Mukama, n’okuyimiriranga mu maaso ga Mukama Katonda, n’okwatulanga emikisa gye mu linnya lye, nga bwe bakyakola n’okutuusa leero.
9 Therefore Levi has no portion nor inheritance with his brethren; Jehovah is his inheritance, according as Jehovah thy God told him.
Noolwekyo Abaleevi tebaafuna mugabo wadde ekitundu eky’obusika mu nsi ensuubize nga baganda baabwe ab’ebika ebirala bwe baafuna; kubanga Mukama bwe busika bwabwe, nga Mukama Katonda wo bwe yabagamba.
10 But I stood upon the mountain according to the former days, forty days and forty nights; and Jehovah listened unto me also at that time: Jehovah would not destroy thee.
Nabeerayo ku lusozi ne mmalayo ennaku amakumi ana, emisana n’ekiro, ng’omulundi guli ogwasooka. Ne ku mulundi guno Mukama yampuliriza. Mukama Katonda yali tayagala kukuzikiriza.
11 And Jehovah said unto me, Rise up, take thy journey before the people, that they may enter in and possess the land, which I swore unto their fathers to give unto them.
Mukama n’aŋŋamba nti, “Genda okulembere abantu, bakwate olugendo lwabwe, bayingire mu nsi gye nalayirira bajjajjaabwe okugibawa, bagyefunire.”
12 And now, Israel, what doth Jehovah thy God require of thee, but to fear Jehovah thy God, to walk in all his ways, and to love him, and to serve Jehovah thy God with all thy heart and with all thy soul,
Kale nno, ggwe Isirayiri, kiki Mukama Katonda wo ky’akwetaagako wabula okutya Mukama Katonda wo, okutambuliranga mu makubo ge gonna, n’okumwagalanga, n’okuweerezanga Mukama Katonda wo n’omutima gwo gwonna n’emmeeme yo yonna,
13 to keep the commandments of Jehovah, and his statutes, which I command thee this day, for thy good?
n’okugonderanga amateeka ga Mukama n’ebiragiro bye, nga bwe nkukuutira leero olw’obulungi bwo?
14 Behold, the heaven and the heaven of heavens belong to Jehovah thy God; the earth and all that is therein.
Laba, Mukama Katonda wo ye nannyini ggulu, era n’eggulu erisinga okuba waggulu ennyo nalyo lirye, n’ensi ne byonna ebigirimu.
15 Only, Jehovah took pleasure in thy fathers, to love them, and he chose their seed after them, [even] you, out of all the peoples, as it is this day.
Kyokka era Mukama yakwana bajjajjaabo n’abaagala nnyo, ne yeerondera mmwe, bazzukulu baabwe, okubeera ku ntikko y’amawanga gonna nga bwe kiri leero.
16 Circumcise then the foreskin of your heart, and stiffen your neck no more.
Noolwekyo mukomole emitima gyammwe, era mukomye okubeera n’amawagali.
17 For Jehovah your God is the God of gods, and the Lord of lords, the great God, the mighty and the terrible, who regardeth not persons, nor taketh reward;
Kubanga Mukama Katonda wammwe ye Katonda wa bakatonda, era ye Mukama w’abakama, ye Katonda omukulu, nannyini buyinza era Katonda atiibwa, atalina kyekubiira, era atalya nguzi.
18 who executeth the judgment of the fatherless and the widow, and loveth the stranger, to give him food and clothing.
Bamulekwa abataliiko bakitaabwe, ne bannamwandu, abamalira ensonga zaabwe mu bwenkanya; era ayagala ne bannamawanga abatambuze, ng’abawa emmere n’ebyokwambala.
19 And ye shall love the stranger; for ye have been strangers in the land of Egypt.
Kale nno, mwagalenga bannamawanga kubanga nammwe mwaliko bannamawanga mu nsi ey’e Misiri.
20 Thou shalt fear Jehovah thy God; him thou shalt serve, and unto him shalt thou cleave, and swear by his name.
Otyanga Mukama Katonda wo era muweerezenga. Munywererengako, era mu linnya lye mw’onoolayiriranga.
21 He is thy praise, and he is thy God, who hath done for thee these great and terrible things, which thine eyes have seen.
Oyo, lye ttendo lyo era ye Katonda wo, eyakukolera ebyamagero ebyo byonna ebikulu ggwe kennyini bye weerabirako n’amaaso go.
22 With seventy souls thy fathers went down into Egypt; and now Jehovah thy God hath made thee as the stars of heaven for multitude.
Bajjajjaabo bwe baaserengeta e Misiri, bonna awamu baali bawera abantu nsanvu; kaakano Mukama Katonda wo abafudde bangi nnyo ng’emmunyeenye ez’oku ggulu.
