< Deuteronomy 5 >

1 And Moses called all Israel, and said unto them, Hear, O Israel, the statutes and the ordinances which I speak in your ears this day, that ye may learn them, and that ye may observe to do them.
Awo Musa n’akuŋŋaanya Isirayiri yenna, n’abagamba nti, Wulira, Ayi Isirayiri, amateeka n’ebiragiro bye nkutegeeza ng’owulira ku lunaku lwa leero. Mubiyige era mubigobererenga n’obwegendereza.
2 The Lord our God made a covenant with us in Horeb.
Mukama Katonda waffe yakola naffe endagaano nga tuli e Kolebu.
3 Not with our fathers did the Lord make this covenant, but with us, we who are here all of us alive this day.
Endagaano eyo Mukama Katonda teyagikola ne bazadde baffe, naye yagikola naffe abali wano era abalamu ku lunaku lwa leero.
4 Face to face did the Lord speak with you on the mount, out of the midst of the fire,
Mukama Katonda yayogera nammwe nga mwolekaganye naye, ye ng’asinziira mu muliro ku lusozi olunene.
5 (I was standing between the Lord and between you at that time, to announce to you the word of the Lord; for ye were afraid by reason of the fire, and ye went not up into the mount; ) saying,
Mu kaseera ako nze nnali nnyimiridde wakati wa Mukama nammwe okubatuusaako ekigambo kya Mukama Katonda, kubanga mmwe mwali mutidde omuliro, noolwekyo ne mutalinnya ku lusozi olunene. N’abagamba nti:
6 I am the Lord thy God, who have brought thee out of the land of Egypt, from the house of slavery.
“Nze Mukama Katonda wo, eyakuggya mu Misiri, mu nsi gye mwafuulibwa abaddu.
7 Thou shalt have no other gods before me.
“Tobeeranga na bakatonda balala wabula Nze nzekka.
8 Thou shalt not make unto thyself any graven image, any likeness of any thing that is in the heavens above, or that is on the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth:
Teweekoleranga kintu kyonna ekyole ekifaanana n’ekintu kyonna ekiri waggulu mu ggulu, oba wansi ku nsi, oba ekiri mu mazzi agali wansi w’ensi.
9 Thou shalt not bow thyself down unto them, nor serve them; for I the Lord thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children, and upon the third and upon the fourth generation of them that hate me,
Ebyo tobivuunamiranga so tobisinzanga. Kubanga Nze Mukama Katonda wo ndi Katonda wa buggya; mbonereza abaana olw’ebibi bya bakitaabwe n’ebya bajjajjaabwe okutuusa ku mulembe ogwokusatu n’ogwokuna ogw’abo abankyawa.
10 And showing kindness unto the thousandth generation of them that love me, and keep my commandments.
Naye abo enkumi n’enkumi abanjagala era abakwata amateeka gange, mbalaga okwagala kwange okutaggwaawo.
11 Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord thy God in vain; for the Lord will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain.
Tokozesanga linnya lya Mukama Katonda wo ng’olayira ebitaliimu nsa: kubanga Mukama talirema kumusalira musango ne gumusinga omuntu oyo alayirira obwereere erinnya lye.
12 Keep the sabbath-day to sanctify it, as the Lord thy God hath commanded thee.
Olunaku lwa Ssabbiiti lujjukirenga era olutukuzenga, nga Mukama Katonda wo bwe yakulagira.
13 Six days shalt thou labor, and do all thy work;
Kolanga emirimu gyo, ofaabiine mu nnaku omukaaga,
14 But the seventh day is the sabbath in honor of the Lord thy God; on it thou shalt not do any work, neither thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, nor thy man-servant, nor thy maid-servant, nor thy ox, nor thy ass, nor any of thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates: in order that thy man-servant and thy maid-servant may rest as well as thou.
naye olunaku olw’omusanvu ye Ssabbiiti ya Mukama Katonda wo. Ku lunaku olwo tokolerangako mulimu gwonna; ggwe, wadde mutabani wo, wadde muwala wo, wadde omuweereza wo omusajja, oba omuweereza wo omukazi, oba ente yo eya sseddume, oba endogoyi yo, oba ku nte zo endala zonna, oba omugenyi ali omumwo, abaweereza bo abasajja, n’abaweereza bo abakazi, nabo balyoke bawummuleko nga ggwe.
15 And thou shalt remember that thou hast been a servant in the land of Egypt, and that the Lord thy God brought thee out from there by a mighty hand and by an outstretched arm; therefore hath the Lord thy God commanded thee to observe the sabbath-day.
Ojjukiranga nga wali muweereza mu nsi ey’e Misiri, Mukama Katonda wo n’akuggyayo n’omukono gwe omuwanvu era ogw’amaanyi. Mukama Katonda wo kyeyava akulagira okuumenga olunaku olwa Ssabbiiti.
16 Honor thy father and thy mother, as the Lord thy God hath commanded thee: in order that thy days may be prolonged, and in order that it may go well with thee, in the land which the Lord thy God giveth thee.
Kitaawo ne nnyoko obassangamu ekitiibwa, nga Mukama Katonda wo bwe yakulagira, olyoke owangaale, era obeerenga n’emirembe, mu nsi Mukama Katonda wo gy’akuwa.
17 Thou shalt not kill.
Tottanga.
18 Neither shalt thou commit adultery.
Toyendanga.
19 Neither shalt thou steal.
Tobbanga.
20 Neither shalt thou bear false witness against thy neighbor.
Towaayirizanga muntu munno.
21 Neither shalt thou covet thy neighbor's wife. Neither shalt thou desire thy neighbor's house, nor his field, nor his man-servant, nor his maid-servant, nor his ox, nor his ass, nor anything that is thy neighbor's.
Teweegombanga mukyala wa muntu munno. So teweegombanga nnyumba ya muntu munno, newaakubadde ennimiro ye, newaakubadde omuweereza we omusajja, newaakubadde omuweereza we omukazi, wadde ente ye, oba endogoyi ye, oba ekintu kyonna ekya muntu munno.”
22 These words did the Lord speak unto all your assembly on the mount out of the midst of the fire, of the cloud, and of the thick darkness, with a great voice, but he did so no more; and he wrote them on two tables of stone, and he gave them unto me.
Ago ge mateeka Mukama ge yalangirira eri ekibiina kyammwe kyonna, nga muli wansi w’olusozi Sinaayi, ng’ayogera n’eddoboozi ery’omwanguka eryava mu muliro, n’ekire, n’ekizikiza ekikutte ennyo; teyayongerako birala. Bw’atyo n’agawandiika ku bipande bibiri eby’amayinja, n’abinkwasa.
23 And it came to pass, when ye heard the voice out of the midst of the darkness, while the mount was burning with fire, that ye came near unto me, even all the heads of your tribes, and your elders;
Bwe mwawulira eddoboozi nga liva mu kizikiza, ate ng’olusozi lwaka omuliro, ne musembera gye ndi, n’abakulembeze bonna ab’ebika byammwe, n’abakulu bammwe bonna.
24 And ye said, Behold, the Lord our God hath caused us to see his glory and his greatness, and his voice have we heard out of the midst of the fire: this day have we seen that God can speak with man, who nevertheless may live.
Ne mugamba nti, “Laba, Mukama Katonda waffe atulaze ekitiibwa kye n’obukulu bwe, era n’eddoboozi lye ne tuliwulira nga lifuluma wakati mu muliro.
25 But now why should we die? for this great fire may consume us; if we continue to hear the voice of the Lord our God any more, then shall we die.
Kale, kaakano tufiira ki? Kubanga omuliro guno omungi bwe guti gujja kutusaanyaawo, tufe tuggweewo, singa twongera okuwulira eddoboozi lya Mukama Katonda waffe.
26 For where is there any flesh, that hath heard the voice of the living God speaking out of the midst of the fire, like us, and hath remained alive?
Kubanga, ani mu bantu omuntu eyali awulidde ku ddoboozi lya Katonda omulamu ng’ayogerera wakati mu muliro, nga ffe bwe tuliwulidde, n’asigala ng’akyali mulamu?
27 Do thou approach, and hear all that the Lord our God may say; and thou shalt speak unto us all that the Lord our God may speak unto thee; and we will hear and do it.
Ggwe, musemberere, owulirize bulungi byonna Mukama Katonda waffe by’anaayogera. Olyoke otubuulire ebyo byonna Mukama Katonda waffe by’anaakugamba. Tujja kubiwuliriza era tubigondere.”
28 And the Lord heard the voice of your words, while ye were speaking unto me; and the Lord said unto me, I have heard the voice of the words of this people, which they have spoken unto thee: they have done well in all that they have spoken.
Mukama yawulira ebigambo byammwe, bwe mwayogera nange, Mukama Katonda n’aŋŋamba nti, “Ebigambo abantu abo bye bakugambye mbiwulidde. Byonna bye boogedde bibadde birungi.
29 Who would grant that this their heart might remain in them, to fear me, and to keep all my commandments at all times; in order that it might be well with them, and with their children for ever!
Singa nno bulijjo emitima gyabwe gibeera bwe gityo; ne bantya, era ne bagonderanga amateeka gange gonna, ne balyoka balaba ebirungi awamu n’abaana baabwe emirembe gyonna!
30 Go, say to them, Return you unto your tents.
Genda obagambe baddeyo mu weema zaabwe.
31 But as for thee, remain thou here by me, and I will speak unto thee all the commandments, and the statutes, and the ordinances, which thou shalt teach them, that they may do them in the land which I give them to possess it.
Naye ggwe sigala wano nange, ndyoke nkutegeeze amateeka gonna n’ebiragiro, by’ojja okubayigiriza babikolerengako nga bali mu nsi gye mbawa okubeera obutaka bwabwe obw’enkalakkalira.
32 Observe ye then to do as the Lord your God hath commanded you: ye shall not turn aside to the right or to the left.
“Noolwekyo mwegenderezenga nnyo, mukolenga nga Mukama Katonda wammwe bw’abalagidde; mulemenga okukyama okulaga ku mukono ogwa ddyo oba ogwa kkono.
33 altogether in the way, which the Lord your God hath commanded you, shall ye walk; in order that ye may live, and that it may be well with you, and that ye may remain many days in the land which ye will possess.
Mutambulirenga mu kkubo Mukama Katonda wammwe ly’abalagidde, mulyoke mubenga balamu, mugaggawale, era muwangaalenga nga muli mu nsi ejja okubeera obutaka bwammwe obw’enkalakkalira.”
