Deuteronomy 5
1 And Moses called all Israel, and said unto them, Hear, O Israel, the statutes and judgments which I speak in your ears this day, that ye may learn them, and keep, and do them.
UMozisi wasebiza uIsrayeli wonke, wathi kubo: Zwana, Israyeli, izimiso lezahlulelo engizikhuluma endlebeni zenu lamuhla, ukuze lizifunde, linanzelele ukuzenza.
2 YHWH our Elohim made a covenant with us in Horeb.
INkosi uNkulunkulu wethu yenza isivumelwano lathi eHorebe.
3 YHWH made not this covenant with our fathers, but with us, even us, who are all of us here alive this day.
INkosi kayisenzanga lesisivumelwano labobaba, kodwa lathi, thina sonke esilapha siphila lamuhla.
4 YHWH talked with you face to face in the mount out of the midst of the fire,
INkosi yakhuluma lani ubuso lobuso entabeni, iphakathi komlilo,
5 (I stood between YHWH and you at that time, to shew you the word of YHWH: for ye were afraid by reason of the fire, and went not up into the mount; ) saying,
(ngema phakathi kweNkosi lani ngalesosikhathi, ukulazisa ilizwi leNkosi; ngoba lesaba ngenxa yomlilo, kalenyukelanga entabeni) isithi:
6 I am YHWH thy Elohim, which brought thee out of the land of Egypt, from the house of bondage.
NgiyiNkosi uNkulunkulu wakho, eyakukhupha elizweni leGibhithe, endlini yobugqili.
7 Thou shalt have none other elohim before me.
Ungabi labanye onkulunkulu phambi kwami.
8 Thou shalt not make thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the waters beneath the earth:
Ungazenzeli isithombe esibaziweyo, loba yiwuphi umfanekiso wokusemazulwini phezulu loba wokusemhlabeni phansi, loba wokusemanzini ngaphansi komhlaba.
9 Thou shalt not bow down thyself unto them, nor serve them: for I YHWH thy Elohim am a jealous El, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me,
Ungakukhothameli, ungakukhonzi; ngoba mina iNkosi, uNkulunkulu wakho, nginguNkulunkulu olobukhwele, ngiphindisela ububi baboyise phezu kwabantwana, kuze kube sesizukulwaneni sesithathu lesesine sabangizondayo,
10 And shewing mercy unto thousands of them that love me and keep my commandments.
njalo ngibenzela umusa abayizinkulungwane zabangithandayo lezabagcina imilayo yami.
11 Thou shalt not take the name of YHWH thy Elohim in vain: for YHWH will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain.
Ungaliphathi ngeze ibizo leNkosi uNkulunkulu wakho; ngoba iNkosi kayiyikumyekela engelacala ophatha ibizo layo ngeze.
12 Keep the Sabbath day to sanctify it, as YHWH thy Elohim hath commanded thee.
Gcina usuku lwesabatha, ukulungcwelisa, njengokukulaya kweNkosi uNkulunkulu wakho.
13 Six days thou shalt labour, and do all thy work:
Insuku eziyisithupha uzasebenza, uwenze wonke umsebenzi wakho;
14 But the seventh day is the Sabbath of YHWH thy Elohim: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, nor thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thine ox, nor thine ass, nor any of thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates; that thy manservant and thy maidservant may rest as well as thou.
kodwa usuku lwesikhombisa lulisabatha leNkosi uNkulunkulu wakho; ungenzi loba yiwuphi umsebenzi ngalo, wena lendodana yakho lendodakazi yakho lenceku yakho lencekukazi yakho lenkabi yakho lobabhemi wakho loba yisiphi sezifuyo zakho, lowemzini wakho ophakathi kwamasango akho, ukuze iphumule inceku yakho lencekukazi yakho, njengawe.
15 And remember that thou wast a servant in the land of Egypt, and that YHWH thy Elohim brought thee out thence through a mighty hand and by a stretched out arm: therefore YHWH thy Elohim commanded thee to keep the Sabbath day.
Njalo ukhumbule ukuthi wawuyinceku elizweni leGibhithe, lokuthi iNkosi uNkulunkulu wakho yakukhupha khona ngesandla esilamandla langengalo eyeluliweyo. Ngakho iNkosi uNkulunkulu wakho yakulaya ukuthi ugcine usuku lwesabatha.
16 Honour thy father and thy mother, as YHWH thy Elohim hath commanded thee; that thy days may be prolonged, and that it may go well with thee, in the land which YHWH thy Elohim giveth thee.
Hlonipha uyihlo lonyoko, njengokukulaya kweNkosi uNkulunkulu wakho, ukuze insuku zakho zelulwe, lokuthi kukulungele elizweni iNkosi uNkulunkulu wakho ekunika lona.
17 Thou shalt not kill.
Ungabulali.
18 Neither shalt thou commit adultery.
Njalo ungafebi.
19 Neither shalt thou steal.
Njalo ungebi.
20 Neither shalt thou bear false witness against thy neighbour.
Njalo unganiki ubufakazi bamanga ngomakhelwane wakho.
21 Neither shalt thou desire thy neighbour's wife, neither shalt thou covet thy neighbour's house, his field, or his manservant, or his maidservant, his ox, or his ass, or any thing that is thy neighbour's.
Njalo ungafisi umkamakhelwane wakho; ungahawukeli indlu kamakhelwane wakho, insimu yakhe, lenceku yakhe, lencekukazi yakhe, inkabi yakhe, lobabhemi wakhe, njalo loba yini ekamakhelwane wakho.
22 These words YHWH spake unto all your assembly in the mount out of the midst of the fire, of the cloud, and of the thick darkness, with a great voice: and he added no more. And he wrote them in two tables of stone, and delivered them unto me.
Amazwi la iNkosi yawakhuluma ebandleni lenu lonke entabeni, iphakathi komlilo, eyezini, lemnyameni onzima, ngelizwi elikhulu; njalo kayengezelelanga. Yawabhala ezibhebheni ezimbili zamatshe, yanginika zona.
23 And it came to pass, when ye heard the voice out of the midst of the darkness, (for the mountain did burn with fire, ) that ye came near unto me, even all the heads of your tribes, and your elders;
Kwasekusithi lilizwa ilizwi livela phakathi komnyama, lentaba ivutha umlilo, lasondela kimi, zonke inhloko zezizwe zenu, labadala benu,
24 And ye said, Behold, YHWH our Elohim hath shewed us his glory and his greatness, and we have heard his voice out of the midst of the fire: we have seen this day that Elohim doth talk with man, and he liveth.
lathi: Khangela, iNkosi uNkulunkulu wethu isitshengisile inkazimulo yayo lobukhulu bayo, lelizwi layo silizwile livela phakathi komlilo; lamuhla sibonile ukuthi uNkulunkulu uyakhuluma lomuntu aphile.
25 Now therefore why should we die? for this great fire will consume us: if we hear the voice of YHWH our Elohim any more, then we shall die.
Ngakho-ke sizafelani? Ngoba lumlilo omkhulu uzasiqothula. Uba siphinda silizwa ilizwi leNkosi uNkulunkulu wethu futhi, sizakufa-ke.
26 For who is there of all flesh, that hath heard the voice of the living Elohim speaking out of the midst of the fire, as we have, and lived?
Ngoba ngubani enyameni yonke owezwa ilizwi likaNkulunkulu ophilayo likhuluma livela phakathi komlilo, njengathi, waphila?
27 Go thou near, and hear all that YHWH our Elohim shall say: and speak thou unto us all that YHWH our Elohim shall speak unto thee; and we will hear it, and do it.
Sondela wena, uzwe konke iNkosi uNkulunkulu wethu ezakutsho, usitshele wena konke iNkosi uNkulunkulu wethu ezakutsho kuwe, sizakuzwa, sikwenze.
28 And YHWH heard the voice of your words, when ye spake unto me; and YHWH said unto me, I have heard the voice of the words of this people, which they have spoken unto thee: they have well said all that they have spoken.
INkosi yasisizwa ilizwi lamazwi enu ekukhulumeni kwenu kimi; iNkosi yasisithi kimi: Ngizwile ilizwi lamazwi alababantu abawakhulume kuwe; kulungile konke abakukhulumileyo.
29 O that there were such an heart in them, that they would fear me, and keep all my commandments always, that it might be well with them, and with their children for ever!
O kungathi bangaba lenhliziyo enjalo yokungesaba, bagcine yonke imilayo yami, insuku zonke, ukuze kubalungele labantwana babo kuze kube nininini!
30 Go say to them, Get you into your tents again.
Hamba uthi kibo: Zibuyeleleni emathenteni enu.
31 But as for thee, stand thou here by me, and I will speak unto thee all the commandments, and the statutes, and the judgments, which thou shalt teach them, that they may do them in the land which I give them to possess it.
Kodwa wena, mana lapha phansi kwami, ke ngikhulume kuwe yonke imilayo lezimiso lezahlulelo ozabafundisa zona, ukuze bazenze elizweni engibanika lona ukuthi badle ilifa lalo.
32 Ye shall observe to do therefore as YHWH your Elohim hath commanded you: ye shall not turn aside to the right hand or to the left.
Ngakho qaphelani ukuthi lenze njengokulilaya kweNkosi uNkulunkulu wenu; lingaphambukeli ngakwesokunene langakwesokhohlo.
33 Ye shall walk in all the ways which YHWH your Elohim hath commanded you, that ye may live, and that it may be well with you, and that ye may prolong your days in the land which ye shall possess.
Lizahamba endleleni yonke iNkosi uNkulunkulu wenu elilaye yona, ukuze liphile, njalo kulilungele, libe seliselula izinsuku elizweni elizakudla ilifa lalo.
