Deuteronomy 5
1 Then Moses called all the Israelites together and told them: Listen, people of Israel to the rules and regulations that I'm giving you today. Learn them and make sure you follow them carefully.
Mozisi akadana vaIsraeri vose, akati: Inzwai imi vaIsraeri, mitemo nemirayiro yandinotaura muchinzwa nhasi. Idzidzei muchenjerere kuti muiteerere
2 Remember that the Lord our God made an agreement with us at Horeb.
Jehovha Mwari wedu akaita sungano nesu paHorebhi.
3 He didn't make this agreement with our fathers, but with us, all of those who are still alive today.
Jehovha haana kuita sungano iyi namadzibaba edu, asi akaiita nesu, nesu tose vapenyu nhasi pano.
4 The Lord talked with you person to person from the fire on the mountain.
Jehovha akataura nemi chiso nechiso ari mukati memoto pagomo.
5 This was the time when I stood between the Lord and you to tell you what the Lord said, because you were afraid of the fire and refused to go up the mountain. He told you,
Panguva iyo ndakanga ndimire pakati paJehovha nemi kuti ndizivise kwamuri shoko raJehovha, nokuti makanga muchitya moto mukasakwira mugomo. Uye iye akati:
6 “I am the Lord your God, who led you out of Egypt, out of the prison-house of slavery.
“Ndini Jehovha Mwari wako akakubudisa kubva munyika yeIjipiti, munyika youranda.
7 You must not have any other gods except me.
“Usava navamwe vamwari kunze kwangu.
8 You must not make for yourself any kind of idol, whether in the form of anything in the heavens above, or on the earth beneath, or in the waters below.
Usazviitira mufananidzo wechinhu chipi zvacho chiri kudenga kumusoro kana panyika pasi kana pasi mumvura.
9 You must not bow down before them or worship them; for I am the Lord your God and I am passionately exclusive. I lay the consequences of the sin of those who hate me on their sons, grandsons, and great-grandsons;
Usazvipfugamira kana kuzvinamata; nokuti ini, Jehovha Mwari wako, ndiri Mwari ane godo, ndinoranga vana nokuda kwechivi chamadzibaba kusvikira kurudzi rwechitatu norwechina rwaavo vanondivenga,
10 but I show trustworthy love to the thousands of generations who love me and keep my commandments.
asi ndichiratidza rudo kune chiuru chemarudzi avanondida, vanochengeta mirayiro yangu.
11 You must not use the name of the Lord your God in a wrong way, for the Lord will not forgive anyone who uses his name in a wrong way.
Usareva zita raJehovha Mwari wako pasina, nokuti Jehovha haangaregi kupa mhosva ani naani anoreva zita rake pasina.
12 Remember the Sabbath day to keep it holy, as the Lord as the Lord your God has commanded you to do.
Chengeta zuva reSabata rive dzvene, sezvawakarayirwa naJehovha Mwari wako.
13 You have six days to work and earn your living,
Ubate basa mazuva matanhatu, nokuita basa rako rose,
14 but the seventh day is the Sabbath to honor the Lord your God. On this day you must not do any work—not you, not your son or daughter, not your male slave or female slave or your ox or donkey or any of your livestock, and not the foreigner who is staying with you, so that your male slave and females slave can have the same rest as you.
asi zuva rechinomwe iSabata kuna Jehovha Mwari wako. Nomusi uyo usabata basa ripi zvaro, kunyange iwe, kana mwanakomana wako, kana mwanasikana wako, uye murandarume kana murandakadzi wako, nenzombe yako kana mbongoro yako kana chimwe chezvipfuwo zvako, nomutorwa ari mukati mamasuo ako, kuitira kuti murandarume nomurandakadzi wako azorore sewe.
15 Remember that you were once slaves in Egypt, and that the Lord your God led you out from there with his great power and incredible strength. This is why the Lord your God has ordered you to keep the Sabbath day.
Murangarire kuti imi maimbova varanda munyika yeIjipiti uye kuti Jehovha Mwari wenyu akakubudisai nechanza chine simba noruoko rwakatambanudzwa. Naizvozvo Jehovha Mwari wako anokurayira kuti uchengete zuva reSabata.
16 Honor your father and your mother, as the Lord your God has commanded you to do, so that you may live a long time and do well in the land that the Lord your God is giving you.
Kudza baba vako namai vako, sezvawakarayirwa naJehovha Mwari wako, kuti mazuva ako ave mazhinji uye kuti zvigokuitira zvakanaka panyika yaunopiwa naJehovha Mwari wako.
17 You must not kill people.
Usauraya.
18 You must not commit adultery.
Usaita upombwe.
19 You must not steal.
Usaba.
20 You must not give false evidence against others.
Usapupura nhema pamusoro pomuvakidzani wako.
21 You must not desire to have anyone else's wife. You must not desire to have their house or field, or their male slave or female slave, or their ox or donkey, or anything that belongs to them.”
Usachiva mudzimai womuvakidzani wako. Usachochora imba kana munda womuvakidzani wako, muranda kana murandakadzi wake, nzombe kana mbongoro kana chimwe chinhu chomuvakidzani wako.”
22 In a loud voice the Lord gave these commandments to all of you, speaking from the fire, the cloud, and the deep darkness that covered the mountain. He didn't add anything else. He wrote them down on two tablets of stone and gave them to me.
Iyi ndiyo mirayiro yakataurwa naJehovha nenzwi guru kuungano yenyu yose pagomo paya ari mukati memoto, mugore nerima guru, uye haana kuwedzera mamwe. Ipapo akaanyora pamahwendefa maviri amabwe ndokuapa kwandiri.
23 When you heard the voice that came from the darkness while the mountain was on fire, all your tribal leaders and elders came to me,
Pamakanzwa inzwi richibva mukati merima, negomo richipfuta nomoto, varume vose vanotungamira marudzi enyu, navakuru venyu vakauya kwandiri.
24 and said, “Listen, the Lord our God has revealed glory and majesty to us, and we have heard his voice that came from the fire. Today we have seen that human beings can don't die even when God speaks with them.
Uye makati, “Jehovha Mwari wedu atiratidza kubwinya kwake noukuru hwake, tikanzwa inzwi rake richibva mumoto. Nhasi taona kuti munhu anogona kurarama kunyange dai Mwari akataura naye.
25 But we could still die, couldn't we? This enormous fire is going to burn us up, and we'll die if the Lord our God continues to speak to us.
Asi zvino, tingafireiko? Uyu moto mukuru uchatiparadza, uye tichafa kana tikaramba tichinzwa inzwi raJehovha Mwari wedu.
26 Has anybody else ever heard the living God speak from the fire and survived, we have?
Nokuti ndianiko munhu anofa akambonzwa inzwi raMwari mupenyu achitaura ari mumoto, sesu, uye akararama?
27 You go and listen to everything the Lord our God tells you. Then you can repeat to us everything the Lord our God tells you. We promise to listen and obey.”
Swedera undonzwa zvose zvicharehwa naJehovha Mwari wedu. Zvino iwe ugozotiudza zvose hazvo zvauchaudzwa naJehovha Mwari wedu. Tichazvinzwa tigozviita.”
28 The Lord heard what you told me, and he said to me, “I've heard what these people told you. All that they've said is good.
Jehovha akakunzwai pamakataura kwandiri uye Jehovha akati kwandiri, “Ndanzwa zvataurwa navanhu kwauri. Zvose zvavataura zvakanaka.
29 I only wish they really did respect me and always kept my commandments so that they and their children would do well for all time.
Haiwa, dai mwoyo yavo yainditya nokuchengeta zvose zvandakarayira nguva dzose, kuti zvivaitire zvakanaka ivo navana vavo nokusingaperi!
30 Go and tell them: ‘You need to return to your tents.’
“Enda undovaudza kuti vadzokere kumatende avo.
31 But you are to stay here with me so that I can give you all the commandments and rules and regulations you are to teach them to follow in the country that I am giving them to take over and own.”
Asi iwe mira pano pandiri kuti ndikupe zvandakarayira, mitemo nemirayiro yose yaunofanira kuvadzidzisa kuti vazviite panyika yandinovapa kuti ive yavo.”
32 So make sure you do what the Lord your God has ordered you to do—don't go astray in any direction.
Saka chenjerai kuti muite zvamakarayirwa naJehovha Mwari wenyu; musatsauka kurudyi kana kuruboshwe.
33 Follow all the ways the Lord your God has shown you, so that you do well and live long lives in the country that you will occupy.
Mufambe nenzira yose yamakarayirwa naJehovha Mwari wenyu, kuti murarame nokubudirira uye kuti mazuva enyu ave mazhinji panyika iyo ichava yenyu.
