Deuteronomy 28
1 Now if thou wilt hear the voice of the Lord thy God, to do and keep all his commandments, which I command thee this day, the Lord thy God will make thee higher than all the nations that are on the earth.
Ngati mumvera Yehova Mulungu wanu ndi kutsatira mosamalitsa malamulo ake onse amene ndikukupatsani lero lino, Yehova Mulungu wanu adzakukwezani pamwamba pa mitundu yonse ya pa dziko lapansi.
2 And all these blessings shall come upon thee and overtake thee: yet so if thou hear his precepts,
Madalitso awa adzabwera kwa inu ndi kuyenda nanu ngati mumvera Yehova Mulungu wanu:
3 Blessed shalt thou be in the city, and blessed in the field.
Mudzadalitsika mʼmizinda yanu ndi kudalitsika mʼdzikolo.
4 Blessed shall be the fruit of thy womb, and the fruit of thy ground, and the fruit of thy cattle, the droves of thy herds, and the folds of thy sheep.
Yehova adzadalitsa ana anu, zokolola za mʼdziko lanu, ngʼombe zanu pamodzi ndi ziweto zanu zonse.
5 Blessed shall be thy barns and blessed thy stores.
Dengu lanu ndi chiwaya chanu cha buledi zidzadalitsika.
6 Blessed shalt thou be coming in and going out.
Mudzadalitsika pa kulowa kwanu ndi pa kutuluka kwanu.
7 The Lord shall cause thy enemies, that rise up against thee, to fall down before thy face: one way shall they come out against thee, and seven ways shall they flee before thee.
Yehova adzaonetsetsa kuti adani anu amene adzakuwukirani agonjetsedwe pamaso panu. Iwo adzabwera kwa inu kuchokera mbali imodzi koma adzakuthawani ku mbali zisanu ndi ziwiri.
8 The Lord will send forth a blessing upon thy storehouses, and upon all the works of thy hands: and will bless thee in the land that thou shalt receive.
Yehova adzatumiza madalitso pa nkhokwe zanu ndi pa chilichonse chimene muchikhudza. Yehova Mulungu wanu adzakudalitsani mʼdziko limene akukupatsani.
9 The Lord will raise thee up to be a holy people to himself, as he swore to thee: if thou keep the commandments of the Lord thy God, and walk in his ways.
Yehova Mulungu wanu adzachititsa kuti mukhale anthu ake opatulika, monga momwe analonjezera pa malumbiro ake, ngati musunga malamulo ake ndi kuyenda mʼnjira zake.
10 And all the people of the earth shall see that the name of the Lord is invocated upon thee, and they shall fear thee.
Pamenepo anthu onse a dziko lapansi adzaona kuti mumadziwika ndi dzina la Yehova ndipo adzakuopani.
11 The Lord will make thee abound with all goods, with the fruit of thy womb, and the fruit of thy cattle, with the fruit of thy land, which the Lord swore to thy fathers that he would give thee.
Yehova adzakupambanitsani kwambiri ndipo adzakupatsani ana ambiri, ziweto zambiri, ndi zokolola zochuluka, mʼdziko limene Yehova analumbira kwa makolo anu kuti adzakupatsani.
12 The Lord will open his excellent treasure, the heaven, that it may give rain in due season: and he will bless all the works of thy hands. And thou shalt lend to many nations, and shalt not borrow of any one.
Yehova adzatsekula kumwamba kumene amasungirako chuma chake, kutumiza mvula mʼdziko lanu pa nthawi yake ndi kudalitsa ntchito yonse ya manja anu. Mudzakongoza mitundu yambiri koma inu simudzakongola kwa aliyense.
13 And the Lord shall make thee the head and not the tail: and thou shalt be always above, and not beneath: yet so if thou wilt hear the commandments of the Lord thy God which I command thee this day, and keep and do them,
Yehova adzakuthandizani kukhala mutu osati mchira. Mukakhala ndi chidwi ndi malamulo a Yehova Mulungu wanu amene ndikukupatsani lero lino ndi kuwatsata mosamalitsa, inu mudzakhala apamwamba nthawi zonse osati apansi.
14 And turn not away from them neither to the right hand, nor to the left, nor follow strange gods, nor worship them.
Musapatukire ku dzanja lamanja kapena lamanzere pa lamulo lina lililonse limene ndikukupatsani lero lino ndi kumatsatira kapena kuyitumikira milungu ina.
15 But if thou wilt not hear the voice of the Lord thy God, to keep and to do all his commandments and ceremonies, which I command thee this day, all these curses shall come upon thee, and overtake thee.
Koma ngati simumvera Yehova Mulungu wanu ndi kusatsata mosamalitsa malamulo ake ndi malangizo ake onse amene ndikukupatsani lero lino, matemberero awa adzabwera pa inu ndikukugonjetsani:
16 Cursed shalt thou be in the city, cursed in the field.
Mudzatembereredwa mu mzinda ndi kutembereredwa mʼmudzi.
17 Cursed shall be thy barn, and cursed thy stores.
Dengu lanu ndi chiwaya chanu cha buledi zidzatembereredwa.
18 Cursed shall be the fruit of thy womb, and the fruit of thy ground, the herds of thy oxen, and the flocks of thy sheep.
Zipatso za mʼmimba mwanu zidzatembereredwa, ndiponso zomera za mʼdziko lanu, ana angʼombe zanu ndi ana ankhosa zanu zidzatembereredwa.
19 Cursed shalt thou be coming in, and cursed going out.
Mudzatembereredwa pa kulowa kwanu ndi pa kutuluka kwanu.
20 The Lord shall send upon thee famine and hunger, and a rebuke upon all the works which thou shalt do: until he consume and destroy thee quickly, for thy most wicked inventions, by which thou hast forsaken me.
Yehova adzakutumizirani matemberero, chisokonezo ndi minyozo pa chilichonse chimene mudzachichita mpaka mudzawonongedwa ndi kukhala bwinja mofulumira chifukwa cha zoyipa zimene mwazichita pa kumutaya Yehova.
21 May the Lord set the pestilence upon thee, until he consume thee out of the land, which thou shalt go in to possess.
Yehova adzakugwetserani mliri wa matenda mpaka atakuwonongani mʼdziko limene mukulowa kukalitengali.
22 May the Lord afflict thee with miserable want, with the fever and with cold, with burning and with heat, and with corrupted air and with blasting, and pursue thee till thou perish.
Yehova adzakukanthani ndi nthenda yowondetsa, ya malungo ndi ya zotupatupa, ndi kutentha kwakukulu ndi chilala, ndi chinsikwi ndi chiwawu zimene zidzakusautsani mpaka mutawonongeka.
23 Be the heaven, that is over thee, of brass: and the ground thou treadest on, of iron.
Mitambo ya pamutu panu idzawuma ngati mkuwa ndipo sidzagwetsa mvula mpaka nthaka yanu idzawuma gwaa ngati chitsulo.
24 The Lord give thee dust for rain upon thy land, and let ashes come down from heaven upon thee, till thou be consumed.
Mʼmalo mwa mvula Yehova adzakupatsani fumbi ndi dothi ndipo lidzakugwerani kuchokera kumwamba mpaka mutawonongeka.
25 The Lord make thee to fall down before thy enemies, one way mayst thou go out against them, and flee seven ways, and be scattered throughout all the kingdoms of the earth.
Yehova adzalola kuti adani anu akugonjetseni. Mudzadzera njira imodzi pokalimbana ndi adani anu koma pothawa mudzabalalika mbali zisanu ndi ziwiri. Mudzakhala chinthu chochititsa mantha pakati pa maufumu onse a dziko lapansi.
26 And be thy carcass meat for all the Fowls of the air, and the beasts of the earth, and be there none to drive them away.
Mitembo yanu idzadyedwa ndi mbalame zamumlengalenga ndi nyama zakutchire, ndipo palibe amene adzaziyingitse.
27 The Lord strike thee with the ulcer of Egypt, and the part of thy body, by which the dung is cast out, with the scab and with the itch: so that thou canst not be healed.
Yehova adzakusautsani ndi zithupsa za ku Igupto ndi zotupatupa, zipere, ndi mphere zimene simudzachiritsika nazo.
28 The Lord strike thee with madness and blindness and fury of mind.
Yehova adzakusautsani inu ndi misala, khungu ndi chisokonekero cha maganizo.
29 And mayst thou grope at midday as the blind is wont to grope in the dark, and not make straight thy ways. And mayst thou at all times suffer wrong, and be oppressed with violence, and mayst thou have no one to deliver thee.
Masanasana mudzayenda ngati muli mu mdima, kumafufuzira njira ngati wosaona. Mudzakhala olephera pa chilichonse mungachite. Tsiku ndi tsiku mudzaponderezedwa ndi kuberedwa wopanda wokupulumutsani.
30 Mayst thou take a wife, and another sleep with her. Mayst thou build a house, and not dwell therein. Mayest thou plant a vineyard and not gather the vintage thereof.
Mudzachita chinkhoswe ndi mkazi, koma wina adzakulandani ndi kumukwatira. Mudzamanga nyumba koma simudzagonamo. Mudzalima munda wamphesa koma simudzadyako zipatso zake.
31 May thy ox be slain before thee, and thou not eat thereof. May thy ass be taken away in thy sight, and not restored to thee. May thy sheep be given to thy enemies, and may there be none to help thee.
Ngʼombe yanu yamtheno idzaphedwa inu muli pomwepo koma simudzadyako. Bulu wanu adzalandidwa kwa inu mwamakani osabwera nayenso. Nkhosa zanu zidzapatsidwa kwa adani anu, ndipo palibe amene adzazipulumutsa.
32 May thy sons and thy daughters be given to another people, thy eyes looking on, and languishing at the sight of them all the day, and may there be no strength in thy hand.
Ana anu aamuna ndi aakazi adzaperekedwa kwa anthu a mitundu ina ndipo inu mudzafika potopa ndi kulefuka nʼkudikirira tsiku ndi tsiku kuti mwina anawo abwerako.
33 May a people which thou knowest not, eat the fruits of thy land, and all thy labours: and mayst thou always suffer oppression, and be crushed at all times.
Anthu amene simukuwadziwa adzakudyerani zokolola zanu, ndipo mudzakhala mukuponderezedwa mwankhanza masiku onse.
34 And be astonished at the terror of those things which thy eyes shall see:
Zimene muzidzaziona zidzakusokonezani mitu.
35 May the Lord strike thee with a very sore ulcer in the knees and in the legs, and be thou incurable from the sole of the foot to the top of the head.
Yehova adzakusautsani ndi zithupsa zaululu ndi zosachiritsika za mʼmawondo ndi mʼmiyendo ndipo zidzafalikira kuchoka kuphazi mpaka kumutu.
36 The Lord shall bring thee, and thy king, whom thou shalt have appointed over thee, into a nation which thou and thy fathers know not: and there thou shalt serve strange gods, wood and stone.
Yehova adzakuthamangitsirani, inu ndi mafumu anu amene muwayika, ku dziko losadziwika kwa inu ndi kwa makolo anu. Kumeneko mudzakapembedza milungu ina, milungu ya mitengo ndi miyala.
37 And thou shalt be lost, as a proverb and a byword to all people, among whom the Lord shall bring thee in.
Inu mudzakhala chinthu chochititsa mantha kuchisunga ndiponso chinthu chotukwanidwa ndi chonyozeka kwa anthu a mitundu yonse kumene Yehova adzakuthamangitsirani.
38 Thou shalt cast much seed into the ground, and gather little: because the locusts shall consume all.
Mudzadzala mbewu zambiri ku munda koma mudzakolola pangʼono, chifukwa dzombe lidzaziwononga.
39 Thou shalt plant a vineyard, and dig it, and shalt not drink the wine, nor gather any thing thereof: because it shall be wasted with worms.
Mudzadzala mpesa ndi kulimirira koma vinyo wake simudzamumwa kapena kukolola mphesazo, chifukwa mphutsi zidzadya mphesazo.
40 Thou shalt have olive trees in all thy borders, and shalt not be anointed with the oil: for the olives shall fall off and perish.
Mudzakhala ndi mitengo ya olivi mʼdziko lanu lonse koma simudzagwiritsa ntchito mafuta ake, chifukwa zipatso zake zidzayoyoka.
41 Thou shalt beget sons and daughters, and shalt not enjoy them: because they shall be led into captivity.
Mudzabereka ana aamuna ndi aakazi koma sadzakhala anu, chifukwa adzapita ku ukapolo.
42 The blast shall consume all the trees and the fruits of thy ground.
Magulumagulu a dzombe adzawononga mitengo yanu ndi mbewu za mʼdziko lanu.
43 The stranger that liveth with thee in the land, shall rise up over thee, and shall be higher: and thou shalt go down, and be lower.
Mlendo wokhala pakati panu adzatukuka kuposa inu, koma inuyo mudzaloweralowera pansi.
44 He shall lend to thee, and thou shalt not lend to him. He shall be as the head, and thou shalt be the tail.
Iye adzakubwereketsani, koma inu simudzatha kubwereketsa. Iye adzakhala mutu ndipo inu mudzakhala mchira.
45 And all these curses shall come upon thee, and shall pursue and overtake thee, till thou perish: because thou heardst not the voice of the Lord thy God, and didst not keep his commandments and ceremonies which he commanded thee.
Matemberero onsewa adzabwera pa inu. Adzakulondolani ndi kukugonjetsani mpaka mutawonongeka, chifukwa simunamvere Yehova Mulungu wanu ndi kusunga malamulo ndi malangizo amene anakupatsani.
46 And they shall be as signs and wonders on thee, and on thy seed for ever.
Matemberero amenewa adzakhala chizindikiro ndi chozizwitsa kwa inu ndi zidzukulu zanu mpaka kalekale.
47 Because thou didst not serve the Lord thy God with joy and gladness of heart, for the abundance of all things:
Pakuti inu simunatumikire Yehova Mulungu wanu pa nthawi imene zinthu zinkakuyenderani bwino,
48 Thou shalt serve thy enemy, whom the Lord will send upon thee, in hunger, and thirst, and nakedness, and in want of all things: and he shall put an iron yoke upon thy neck, till he consume thee.
chomwecho pa nthawi ya njala ndi ludzu, ya maliseche ndi umphawi woopsa, mudzatumikira adani amene Yehova adzakutumizirani. Iye adzayika goli lachitsulo mʼkhosi mwanu kufikira atakuwonongani.
49 The Lord will bring upon thee a nation from afar, and from the uttermost ends of the earth, like an eagle that flyeth swiftly, whose tongue thou canst not understand,
Yehova adzakutumizirani mtundu wa anthu kuchokera kutali kumapeto kwa dziko lapansi nudzachita ngati mphungu yowulukira pansi, mtundu wa anthu umene chiyankhulo chawo simudzachimva,
50 A most insolent nation, that will shew no regard to the ancients, nor have pity on the infant,
mtundu wooneka wochititsa mantha, wopanda ulemu kwa okalamba kapena chisoni kwa ana.
51 And will devour the fruit of thy cattle, and the fruits of thy land: until thou be destroyed, and will leave thee no wheat, nor wine, nor oil, nor herds of oxen, nor flocks of sheep: until he destroy thee.
Iwo adzagwira ana a ziweto zanu, natenga zokolola za mʼdziko lanu kufikira mutawonongeka. Iwo sadzakusiyirani tirigu, vinyo watsopano kapena mafuta a olivi, kapena mwana wangʼombe aliyense kapena mwana wankhosa mpaka mutasanduka bwinja.
52 And consume thee in all thy cities, and thy strong and high walls be brought down, wherein thou trustedst in all thy land. Thou shalt be besieged within thy gates in all thy land which the Lord thy God will give thee:
Iwo adzathira nkhondo mizinda yonse mʼdziko lanu lonse mpaka malinga anu ataliatali omwe mumadalira aja atagwa. Adzathira nkhondo mizinda yonse ya mʼdziko limene Yehova Mulungu wanu akukupatsani.
53 And thou shalt eat the fruit of thy womb, and the flesh of thy sons and of thy daughters, which the Lord thy God shall give thee, in the distress and extremity wherewith thy enemy shall oppress thee.
Chifukwa cha zosautsa zimene mdani wanu adzabweretsa pa nthawi yokuthirani nkhondo, inu mudzadya ana anu, mnofu wa ana anu aamuna ndi aakazi amene Yehova Mulungu wanu wakupatsani.
54 The man that is nice among you, and very delicate, shall envy his own brother, and his wife, that lieth in his bosom,
Ngakhale munthu woleza mtima ndi wachifundo kwambiri pakati panu sadzakhala ndi chifundo pa mʼbale wake weniweni kapena mkazi wake amene iye amamukonda kapena ana ake otsalawo,
55 So that he will not give them of the flesh of his children, which he shall eat: because he hath nothing else in the siege and the want, wherewith thy enemies shall distress thee within all thy gates.
ndipo sadzagawirako aliyense wa iwo mnofu wa ana ake amene akudyawo. Kadzakhala kali komweko basi kamene kamutsalira chifukwa cha msautso umene mdani wanu adzagwetsa pa nthawi yothira nkhondo mizinda yanu yonse.
56 The tender and delicate woman, that could not go upon the ground, nor set down her foot for over much niceness and tenderness, will envy her husband who lieth in her bosom, the flesh of her son, and of her daughter,
Mayi woleza mtima ndi wachifundo kwambiri pakati panu, uja woti sangayerekeze kuponda pansi, adzabisira mwamuna wake amene amamukonda ndi ana ake omwe aamuna ndi aakazi
57 And the filth of the afterbirths, that come forth from between her thighs, and the children that are born the same hour. For they shall eat them secretly for the want of all things, in the siege and distress, wherewith thy enemy shall oppress thee within thy gates.
zotsalira za uchembere zochoka mʼmimba mwake ndi ana amene wabereka. Pakuti adzafuna kuti adye zimenezi yekha mobisa pa nthawi yothiridwa nkhondo chifukwa cha masautso amene mdani wanu adzagwetsa pa inu mʼmizinda yanu.
58 If thou wilt not keep, and fulfill all the words of this law, that are written in this volume, and fear his glorious and terrible name: that is, The Lord thy God:
Ngati simutsata mosamalitsa mawu onse a malamulo awa amene alembedwa mʼbuku lino, komanso ngati simuopa dzina la ulemerero ndi loopsa, dzina la Yehova Mulungu wanu,
59 The Lord shall increase thy plagues, and the plagues of thy seed, plagues great and lasting, infirmities grievous and perpetual.
Yehova adzatumiza pa inu ndi zidzukulu zanu miliri yoopsa, zosautsa zowawa ndi zokhalitsa, ndi matenda aakulu ndi ovuta kuchiritsika.
60 And he shall bring back on thee all the afflictions of Egypt, which thou wast afraid of, and they shall stick fast to thee.
Adzakubweretserani matenda onse a ku Igupto aja mumawaopawa ndipo adzakukanirirani.
61 Moreover the Lord will bring upon thee all the diseases, and plagues, that are not written in the volume of this law till he consume thee:
Yehova adzakubweretseraninso mtundu uliwonse wa matenda ndi zosautsa zimene sizinalembedwe mʼbuku la malamulo lino, mpaka mutawonongeka.
62 And you shall remain few in number, who before were as the stars of heaven for multitude, because thou heardst not the voice of the Lord thy God.
Inu aja munali ochuluka ngati nyenyezi zakumwamba mudzatsala ochepa chabe chifukwa simunamvere Yehova Mulungu wanu.
63 And as the Lord rejoiced upon you before doing good to you, and multiplying you: so he shall rejoice destroying and bringing you to nought, so that you shall be taken away from the land which thou shalt go in to possess.
Monga kunamukomera Yehova kukulemeretsani ndi kukuchulukitsani, momwemonso kudzamukondweretsa kukunthani ndi kukuwonongani. Inu mudzazulidwa kukuchotsani mʼdziko limene mukulowa kukalitengali.
64 The Lord shall scatter thee among all people, from the farthest parts of the earth to the ends thereof: and there thou shalt serve strange gods, which both thou art ignorant of and thy fathers, wood and stone.
Kenaka Yehova adzakubalalitsani pakati pa anthu a mitundu yonse, kuchokera ku mapeto a dziko kufika ku mapeto ena. Kumeneko mudzapembedza milungu ina, milungu ya mitengo ndi ya miyala, imene inu eni kapena makolo anu sanayidziwepo.
65 Neither shalt thou be quiet, even in those nations, nor shall there be any rest for the sole of thy foot. For the Lord will give thee a fearful heart, and languishing eyes, and a soul consumed with pensiveness:
Pakati pa mitundu ya anthu imeneyi simudzapeza mpata, popanda malo woti nʼkuyikapo phazi. Kumeneko Yehova adzakupatsani moyo wa nkhawa, maso otopa ndi chiyembekezo, ndi mtima wosakhazikika.
66 And thy life shall be as it were hanging before thee. Thou shalt fear night and day, neither shalt thou trust thy life.
Inu mudzakhala osakhazikika mopitirira, odzazidwa ndi mantha usiku ndi usana womwe, osowa chitsimikizo cha pa moyo wanu.
67 In the morning thou shalt say: Who will grant me evening? and at evening: Who will grant me morning? for the fearfulness of thy heart, wherewith thou shalt be terrified, and for those things which thou shalt see with thy eyes.
Mmawa muzidzati, “Chikhala anali madzulo!” ndipo madzulo mudzati, “Chikhala unali mmawa!” Mudzanena zimenezi chifukwa cha mantha amene adzakhale mu mtima mwanu ndi chifukwa cha zomwe muzidzaziona.
68 The Lord shall bring thee again with ships into Egypt, by the way whereof he said to thee that thou shouldst see it no more. There shalt thou be set to sale to thy enemies for bondmen and bondwomen, and no man shall buy you.
Yehova adzakubwezani ku Igupto pa sitima zapamadzi paulendo umene Ine ndinati musawuyendenso. Kumeneko mudzadzitsatsa nokha kwa adani anu monga akapolo aamuna ndi aakazi, koma palibe amene adzakuguleni.
