Deuteronomy 14
1 You are the children of the Lord your God: you shall not make any baldness between you eyes for the dead.
Inu ndinu ana a Yehova Mulungu wanu. Osamadzichekacheka kapena kudzimeta pamphumi chifukwa cha abale anu amene amwalira,
2 For you are a holy people to the Lord your God, and the Lord your God has chosen you to be a peculiar people to himself of all the nations on the face of the earth.
pakuti ndinu anthu opatulika a Yehova Mulungu wanu. Pakati pa anthu onse pa dziko lonse lapansi, Yehova wasankha inu kuti chikhale chuma chake chamtengo wapatali.
3 You shall not eat any abominable thing.
Musamadye chinthu chilichonse chonyansa.
4 These [are] the beasts which you shall eat; the calf of the herd, and lamb of the sheep, and kid of the goats;
Nyama zomwe mukhoza kudya ndi izi: ngʼombe, nkhosa, mbuzi,
5 the stag, and doe, and pygarg, and wild goat, and camelopard.
mbawala, gwape, mphoyo, mphalapala, ngoma, nyumbu ndi mbalale.
6 Every beast that divides the hoofs, and makes claws of two divisions, and that chews the cud among beasts, these you shall eat.
Nyama iliyonse imene ili ndi chipondero chogawikana pakati ndi yobzikula mukhoza kudya.
7 And these you shall not eat of them that chew the cud, and of those that divide the hoofs, and make distinct claws; the camel, and the hare, and the rabbit; because they chew the cud, and do not divide the hoof, these are unclean to you.
Komabe pakati pa nyama zimene zimabzikula kapena zogawikana zipondero, zimene simukuyenera kudya ndi ngamira, kalulu ndi mbira. Zimenezi ngakhale zimabzikula, zipondero zake sizogawikana, choncho ndi zodetsedwa, musadye.
8 And as for the swine, because he divides the hoof, and makes claws of the hoof, yet he chews not the cud, he is unclean to you; you shall not eat of their flesh, you shall not touch their dead bodies.
Nkhumba simabzikula ndi yodetsedwanso ngakhale ili ndi zipondero zogawikana. Musamadye nyama yake kapena kukhudza imene yafa.
9 And these you shall eat of all that are in the water, you shall eat all that have fins and scales.
Mwa zamoyo zonse zimene zimakhala mʼmadzi, mukhoza kudya chilichonse chimene chili ndi minga ya pa msana ndi mamba.
10 And all that have not fins and scales you shall not eat; they are unclean to you.
Koma chilichonse chimene chilibe minga ya pa msana ndi mamba musadye pakuti nʼchodetsedwa.
11 You shall eat every clean bird.
Mukhoza kudya mbalame iliyonse yoyenera kudya.
12 And these of them you shall not eat; the eagle, and the ossifrage, and the sea-eagle,
Koma simukuyenera kudya izi: mphungu, nkhwazi, mwimba,
13 and the vulture, and the kite and the like to it,
nankapakapa, akamtema, akhungubwi a mitundu yonse, ndi mtundu uliwonse wa miphamba,
mtundu uliwonse wa khwangwala,
15 and the sparrow, and the owl, and the cormorant,
kadzidzi wamphondo, kadzidzi wodzuma, chipudo, mtundu uliwonse wa akabawi,
16 and the heron, and the swan, and the stork,
kadzidzi wamngʼono, chiswankhono ndi mantchichi,
17 and the cormorant, and the hawk, and its like, and the hoopoe, and the raven,
tsekwe, vuwo, dembo,
18 and the pelican, and the diver and the like to it, and the red-bill and the bat.
indwa, zimeza za mitundu yonse, nsadzu ndi mleme.
19 All winged animals that creep are unclean to you; you shall not eat of them.
Zowuluka zonse za miyendo inayi ndi zodetsedwa. Musamadye zimenezi.
20 You shall eat every clean bird.
Koma chowuluka chilichonse choyenera kudya mukhoza kudya.
21 You shall eat nothing that dies of itself; it shall be given to the sojourner in your cities and he shall eat it, or you shall sell it to a stranger, because you are a holy people to the Lord your God. You shall not boil a lamb in his mother's milk.
Musamadye chilichonse chimene mwachipeza chofaifa. Mukhoza kupatsa mlendo amene akukhala mu mzinda wina uliwonse wa mizinda yanu. Iyeyo akhoza kudya kapena mukhoza kugulitsa kwa wina aliyense amene sali wa mtundu wanu. Koma inu ndinu anthu opatulika a Yehova Mulungu wanu. Musamaphike mwana wambuzi mu mkaka wa mayi wake.
22 You shall tithe a tenth of all the produce of your seed, the fruit of your field year by year.
Muzionetsetsa kuti mukupatula chakhumi pa zokolola zanu chaka chilichonse.
23 And you shall eat it in the place which the Lord your God shall choose to have his name called there; you shall bring the tithe of your corn and of your wine, and of your oil, the firstborn of your herd and of your flock, that you may learn to fear the Lord your God always.
Muzidyera chakhumi cha tirigu wanu, vinyo wanu watsopano ndi mafuta, ndi ana oyamba kubadwa a ngʼombe zanu pamaso pa Yehova Mulungu wanu pa malo amene adzasankhe ngati kokhalako dzina lake, kuti muphunzire kuopa Yehova Mulungu wanu.
24 And if the journey be too far for you, and you are not able to bring them, because the place [is] far from you which the Lord your God shall choose to have his name called there, because the Lord your God will bless you;
Koma ngati malo amenewa ali kutali kwambiri ndipo kuti inu mwadalitsidwa ndi Yehova Mulungu wanu, ndipo simungathe kunyamula chakhumi chanu (chifukwa chakuti malo amene Yehova adzasankha kukayikako dzina lake ali kutali kwambiri),
25 then you shall sell them for money, and you shall take the money in your hands, and you shall go to the place which the Lord your God shall choose.
ndiye musinthitse chakhumi chanucho ndi siliva, ndipo mutenge silivayo ndi kupita naye kumalo kumene Yehova Mulungu wanu adzasankhe.
26 And you shall give the money for whatever your soul shall desire, for oxen or for sheep, or for wine, or [you shall lay it out] on strong drink, or on whatever your soul may desire, and you shall eat there before the Lord your God, and you shall rejoice and your house,
Gwiritsani ntchito silivayo kugula chilichonse chimene muchifuna monga ngʼombe, nkhosa, vinyo kapena zakumwa zina zosasitsa, kapena china chilichonse chimene muchifuna. Ndipo inu ndi anthu a pa banja panu mudzazidyera komweko pamaso pa Yehova Mulungu wanu ndi kukondwera.
27 and the Levite that is in your cities, because he has not a portion or inheritance with you.
Alevi okhala mʼmizinda yanu musaleke kuwathandiza popeza alibe gawo lawo la chuma kapena cholowa chawochawo.
28 After three years you shall bring out all the tithes of your fruits, in that year you shall lay it up in your cities.
Kumapeto kwa zaka zitatu zilizonse muzibweretsa zakhumi zonse pa zokolola za chaka chimenecho ndi kuzisunga mʼmidzi yanu,
29 And the Levite shall come, because he has no part or lot with you, and the stranger, and the orphan, and the widow which is in your cities; and they shall eat and be filled, that the Lord your God may bless you in all the works which you shall do.
kuti Alevi (amene alibe gawo lawo la chuma kapena cholowa chawochawo), alendo, ana ndi akazi amasiye, amene akukhala mʼmizinda yanu akhoza kubwera kudzadya ndi kukhuta. Ndipo kuti akutero Yehova Mulungu wanu akudalitseni pa ntchito zanu zonse.
