Deuteronomy 17
1 Thou shalt offer vnto the Lord thy God no bullocke nor sheepe wherein is blemish or any euill fauoured thing: for that is an abomination vnto the Lord thy God.
Toleetanga kiweebwayo eri Mukama Katonda wo eky’ente oba eky’endiga ng’eriko akamogo oba ekikyamu kyonna, kubanga ebiri ng’ebyo Katonda wo abikyayira ddala.
2 If there be founde among you in any of thy cities, which the Lord thy God giueth thee, man or woman that hath wrought wickednes in the sight of the Lord thy God, in transgressing his couenant,
Omuntu yenna omusajja oba omukazi abeera mu mmwe, mu kimu ku bibuga Mukama Katonda wo by’akuwa, bw’anaakwatibwanga ng’akoze ebibi mu maaso ga Mukama Katonda wo, ng’amenye endagaano ya Mukama,
3 And hath gone and serued other gods, and worshipped them: as the sunne, or the moone, or any of the hoste of heauen, which I haue not commanded,
era ng’ajeemedde ekiragiro kyange n’asinza bakatonda abalala, ng’enjuba, oba omwezi, oba emmunyeenye ez’oku ggulu, bye siragiranga okubisinzanga,
4 And it be tolde vnto thee, and thou hast heard it, then shalt thou inquire diligently: and if it be true, and the thing certaine, that such abomination is wrought in Israel,
ekikolwa ekyo ne kikutegeezebwangako; kale onookinoonyerezangako n’obwegendereza. Bwe kinaakakasibwanga nga kya mazima, ng’ekibi ekyo kikoleddwa mu Isirayiri,
5 Then shalt thou bring foorth that man, or that woman (which haue committed that wicked thing) vnto thy gates, whether it be man or woman, and shalt stone them with stones, til they die.
onoofulumyanga omusajja oyo, oba omukazi oyo, akoze ekibi ekyo, wabweru wa wankaaki w’ekibuga n’omukuba amayinja, n’afa.
6 At the mouth of two or three witnesses shall he that is woorthie of death, die: but at the mouth of one witnesse, he shall not die.
Omuntu anattibwanga nga wamaze kulabikawo obujulizi bw’abantu babiri oba basatu, naye omuntu tattibwenga ku bujulizi bw’omuntu omu yekka.
7 The handes of the witnesses shall be first vpon him, to kill him: and afterward the hands of all the people: so thou shalt take the wicked away from among you.
Abajulizi be banaasookanga okukasuukirira omuntu oyo amayinja, n’abalala ne bagoberera. Kinaakusaaniranga okwemalangako ebibi ebinaabeeranga wakati mu mmwe.
8 If there rise a matter too harde for thee in iudgement betweene blood and blood, betweene plea and plea, betweene plague and plague, in the matters of controuersie within thy gates, then shalt thou arise, and goe vp vnto the place which the Lord thy God shall chuse,
Bwe wanaabangawo emisango egireeteddwa mu mbuga yo nga mizibu gikukaluubiridde okusala, oba nga gya kuyiwa musaayi, oba gya kuwozaŋŋanya, oba kukubagana, oba ensonga endala zonna ezinaabangamu enkaayana mu bibuga byo, ensonga ezo zonna onoozitwalanga mu kifo Mukama Katonda wo ky’anaabanga yeerondedde.
9 And thou shalt come vnto the Priestes of the Leuites, and vnto the iudge that shall be in those daies, and aske, and they shall shewe thee the sentence of iudgement,
Bw’onootuukanga eyo oneebuuzanga ku bakabona, be Baleevi, ne ku mulamuzi anaabanga akola omulimu ogwo mu kiseera ekyo. Banaakutegeezanga ensala yaabwe.
10 And thou shalt do according to that thing which they of that place (which the Lord hath chosen) shewe thee, and thou shalt obserue to doe according to all that they informe thee.
Onookoleranga ku nsala yaabwe eyo gye banaakuwanga mu kifo ekyo Mukama ky’anaabanga yeerondedde. Weegenderezanga nnyo n’okola ebyo bye banaabanga bakulagidde.
11 According to the Lawe, which they shall teach thee, and according to the iudgement which they shall tell thee, shalt thou doe: thou shalt not decline from the thing which they shall shew thee, neither to the right hand, nor to the left.
Kinaakugwaniranga okukola ng’amateeka ge banaabanga bakunnyonnyodde bwe gagamba, n’ensala yaabwe nga bw’eneebanga gye banaakutegeezanga. Bye banaakutegeezanga tobivangako kulaga ku mukono ogwa ddyo oba ku gwa kkono.
12 And that man that wil doe presumptuously, not hearkening vnto the Priest (that standeth before the Lord thy God to minister there) or vnto the iudge, that man shall die, and thou shalt take away euill from Israel.
Omuntu yenna anaanyoomanga omulamuzi oba kabona eyateekebwawo okuweereza Mukama Katonda wo, omuntu oyo wa kufa. Bw’otyo bw’onoomalangamu ekibi mu Isirayiri.
13 So all the people shall heare and feare, and doe no more presumptuously.
Abantu bonna banaabiwuliranga ne batya, ne bataddayo nate kukola bya kyejo.
14 Whe thou shalt come vnto ye land which the Lord thy God giueth thee, and shalt possesse it, and dwell therein, if thou say, I will set a King ouer me, like as all the nations that are about me,
Bw’olimala okuyingira mu nsi Mukama Katonda wo gy’akuwa, n’ogirya, n’obeera omwo, oliyinza okugamba nti, “Leka neeteekerewo kabaka ananfuganga okufaanana ng’amawanga amalala gonna aganneebunguludde;”
15 Then thou shalt make him King ouer thee, whome the Lord thy God shall chuse: from among thy brethren shalt thou make a King ouer thee: thou shalt not set a stranger ouer thee, which is not thy brother.
Weegenderezanga n’ossaawo kabaka oyo Mukama Katonda wo gw’anaakulonderanga. Kikugwanira okumuggyanga mu bantu bo bennyini. Tokkirizibwenga kwessizangawo kabaka omunnaggwanga anaabanga tavudde mu baganda bo bennyini, okukufuganga.
16 In any wise he shall not prepare him many horses, nor bring the people againe to Egypt, for to encrease the number of horses, seeing the Lord hath sayd vnto you, Ye shall henceforth goe no more againe that way.
Kabaka oyo tateekwa kwefuniranga mbalaasi nnyingi, wadde okutumanga abantu mu Misiri bamufunirengayo embalaasi endala okwongeranga ku z’alina obungi; kubanga Mukama yagamba nti, “Temuddangayo kukwata kkubo eryo,”
17 Neither shall hee take him many wiues, lest his heart turne away, neither shall he gather him much siluer and golde.
Tawasanga bakazi bangi kubanga bagenda kumukyamyanga. So tekimugwanira kwetuumangako zaabu n’effeeza ennyingi ennyo.
18 And when he shall sit vpon the throne of his kingdo, then shall he write him this Law repeted in a booke, by the Priests of the Leuites.
Bw’anaamalanga okutebenkera ku ntebe ey’obwakabaka bwe, anaakoppololeranga amateeka gano mu kitabo ng’agaggyanga ku ga bakabona, Abaleevi.
19 And it shall be with him, and he shall reade therein all daies of his life, that he may learne to feare the Lord his God, and to keepe all ye words of this Lawe, and these ordinances for to doe them:
Ekitabo ekyo anaabeeranga nakyo bulijjo, era anaakisomanga ennaku zonna ez’obulamu bwe, alyokenga ayige okutyanga Mukama Katonda we, ng’agobereranga n’obwegendereza ebigambo byonna ebiri mu mateeka gano, ne mu biragiro,
20 That his heart be not lifted vp aboue his brethren, and that he turne not from the commandement, to the right hand or to the left, but that he may prolong his daies in his kingdom, he, and his sonnes in the middes of Israel.
nga teyeekulumbaza kusukkirira ku bannansi banne, era nga takyama kuva ku mateeka gano okulaga ku mukono ogwa ddyo oba ku gwa kkono. Bw’anaakolanga bw’atyo, ye, n’ezzadde lye banaafuganga mu bwakabaka bwe, mu Isirayiri, okumala ennaku nnyingi.
