< Deuteronomy 23 >

1 He that is a eunuch, whether he have been crushed or cut, shall not come into the congregation of Jehovah.
Mwamuna aliyense wofulidwa kapena woduka chiwalo chachimuna asalowe nawo mu msonkhano wa Yehova.
2 A bastard shall not come into the congregation of Jehovah; even his tenth generation shall not come into the congregation of Jehovah.
Aliyense wobadwa mʼbanja losavomerezeka, kapena mdzukulu wake wina aliyense, ngakhale mibado khumi pambuyo pake, asalowe mu msonkhano wa Yehova.
3 An Ammonite or Moabite shall not come into the congregation of Jehovah; even their tenth generation shall not come into the congregation of Jehovah for ever;
Mwamoni kapena Mmowabu asalowe mu msonkhano wa anthu a Yehova ngakhale mibado khumi yobwera pambuyo pake.
4 because they met you not with bread and with water on the way, when ye came forth out of Egypt, and because they hired against thee Balaam the son of Beor, of Pethor of Mesopotamia, to curse thee.
Pakuti iwowa sanabwere kudzakulonjerani ndi chakudya kapena madzi pamene mumadutsa pochokera ku Igupto, mʼmalo mwake anakalemba ganyu Balaamu mwana wa Beori wochokera ku Petori ku Mesopotamiya kuti akutemberereni.
5 But Jehovah thy God would not listen to Balaam; and Jehovah thy God turned the curse into blessing unto thee, because Jehovah thy God loved thee.
Komabe Yehova Mulungu wanu sanamvere Balaamu koma anatembenuza temberero kukhala dalitso kwa inu chifukwa Yehova Mulungu wanu amakukondani.
6 Thou shalt not seek their peace nor their prosperity all thy days for ever.
Musachite nawo mgwirizano uliwonse wa mtendere pa moyo wanu wonse.
7 Thou shalt not abhor an Edomite; for he is thy brother. Thou shalt not abhor an Egyptian; because thou wast a sojourner in his land.
Musapeputse Mwedomu pakuti ndi mʼbale wanu ndithu. Musapeputse Mwigupto chifukwa munali alendo mʼdziko lake.
8 Children that are born to them shall come into the congregation of Jehovah in the third generation.
Mʼbado wachitatu wa ana awo akhoza kulowa mu msonkhano wa anthu a Yehova.
9 When thou goest forth into camp against thine enemies, then keep thee from every evil thing.
Mukamakhala pa msasa pokonzekera adani anu, musayandikane ndi china chilichonse chodetsedwa.
10 If there be with thee a man that is not clean from what hath happened in the night, then shall he go outside the camp; he shall not come inside the camp;
Wina mwa asilikali anu akadziwonongera ndi umuna usiku, ayenera kuchoka pa msasapo ndipo akhale kunja kwa msasa.
11 and it shall be, towards evening, he shall bathe in water: and at the going down of the sun he may come inside the camp.
Koma dzuwa likapendeka ayenera kusamba ndipo polowa dzuwa akhoza kubwerera ku msasa.
12 Thou shalt have a place also outside the camp, and shalt go forth thither.
Mukonze malo kunja kwa msasa kumene mukhoza kukadzithandizirako.
13 And thou shalt have a shovel amongst thy weapons, and it shall be, when thou sittest down abroad, thou shalt dig therewith, and shalt turn back and cover that which is come from thee.
Pakati pa zida zanu muzikhala ndi china chokumbira, ndipo pokadzithandiza muzikumba kadzenje ndi kukwirira chimbudzi chanu.
14 For Jehovah thy God walketh in the midst of thy camp, to deliver thee, and to give up thine enemies before thee; and thy camp shall be holy, that he see nothing unseemly with thee, and turn away from thee.
Pakuti Yehova Mulungu wanu amayendayenda ku msasa wanu kukutchinjirizani ndi kupereka adani anu kwa inu. Nʼchifukwa chake msasa wanu uzikhala wopatulika kuti mwina angaone china chonyansa nabwerera osakuyandikirani.
15 Thou shalt not hand over to his master a bondman that hath escaped from his master unto thee:
Ngati kapolo wathawa mbuye wake nakabisala kwanu, musamuperekenso kwa mbuye wakeyo.
16 he shall dwell with thee, even in thy midst, in the place that he shall choose in one of thy gates, where it seemeth good to him; thou shalt not oppress him.
Mumulole akhale pakati panu, paliponse pamene angakonde, mʼmudzi umene angasankhe ndipo musamupondereze.
17 There shall be no prostitute amongst the daughters of Israel, nor any Sodomite amongst the sons of Israel.
Pasapezeke Mwisraeli wamwamuna kapena wamkazi wochita chiwerewere ku Nyumba ya Mulungu.
18 Thou shalt not bring the hire of a harlot, or the price of a dog, into the house of Jehovah thy God for any vow; for even both these are an abomination to Jehovah thy God.
Musabweretse malipiro a wachiwerewere wamkazi kapena wamwamuna Mʼnyumba ya Yehova Mulungu wanu kudzapereka za malumbiro aliwonse, chifukwa Yehova Mulungu wanu amadana ndi zimenezi.
19 Thou shalt take no interest of thy brother, interest of money, interest of victuals, interest of anything that can be lent upon interest:
Musamalipitse mʼbale wanu chiwongoladzanja, kaya pa ndalama, kapena pa chakudya, kapena pa china chilichonse choti nʼkupereketsa chiwongoladzanja.
20 of a foreigner thou mayest take interest, but of thy brother thou shalt not take interest; that Jehovah thy God may bless thee in all the business of thy hand in the land whither thou goest to possess it.
Mlendo mukhoza kumulipitsa chiwongoladzanja koma osati mʼbale wanu Mwisraeli, kuti Yehova Mulungu wanu akudalitseni pa zochitika zanu zonse mʼdziko mukulowamoli.
21 When thou vowest a vow to Jehovah thy God, thou shalt not delay to perform it; for Jehovah thy God will certainly require it of thee, and it shall be sin in thee.
Mukalumbira kupereka kanthu kwa Yehova Mulungu wanu, musamachedwetse kupereka, chifukwa Yehova Mulungu wanu adzakufunsanibe kanthuko ndipo mudzapezeka wochimwa.
22 But if thou forbear to vow, it shall be no sin in thee.
Koma ngati mupewa kupanga mapangano simudzapezeka ochimwa.
23 What is gone out of thy lips thou shalt keep and do, as thou hast vowed to Jehovah thy God, the voluntary-offering that thou hast promised with thy mouth.
Zilizonse zimene mulumbira ndi pakamwa panu muzitsimikiza kuzichita, chifukwa mwalumbira mwaufulu pamaso pa Yehova Mulungu wanu ndi pakamwa panu.
24 When thou comest into thy neighbour's vineyard, thou mayest eat grapes thy fill, according to thy desire, but thou shalt not put any in thy vessel.
Mukalowa mʼmunda wamphesa wa mnzanu mukhoza kudya mphesa mmene mungafunire koma musayike zina mʼdengu mwanu.
25 When thou comest into the standing corn of thy neighbour, thou mayest pluck ears with thy hand; but thou shalt not wave the sickle against thy neighbour's standing corn.
Mukalowa mʼmunda wa tirigu wa mʼbale wanu, mukhoza kutengako ngala mʼmanja mwanu, koma osasenga tirigu ndi chikwakwa.
