< Deuteronomy 11 >
1 “And you have loved your God YHWH, and kept His charge, and His statutes, and His judgments, and His commands, [for] all the days;
Muzikonda Yehova Mulungu wanu ndipo nthawi zonse muzitsata zimene Iyeyo anakulamulani, malangizo, zikhazikitso ndi malamulo ake.
2 and you have known today—for it is not your sons who have not known and who have not seen the discipline of your God YHWH, His greatness, His strong hand, and His outstretched arm;
Lero kumbukirani kuti si ana anu amene anaona ndi kulawa chilango cha Yehova Mulungu wanu: ukulu wake, dzanja lake lamphamvu, mkono wake wotambasuka;
3 and His signs and His doings which He has done in the midst of Egypt, to Pharaoh king of Egypt and to all his land;
zizindikiro zozizwitsa zimene anazionetsa ndi zinthu zimene anazichita mʼkati mwa Igupto, Farao mfumu ya Igupto ndi kwa dziko lake lonse;
4 and that which He has done to the force of Egypt, to its horses, and to its chariot, when He has caused the waters of the Red Sea to flow against their faces in their pursuing after them, and YHWH destroys them, to this day;
zimene Iye anachita kwa gulu lankhondo la Aigupto, kwa akavalo ndi magaleta awo, mmene Iye anawamizira ndi madzi a mu Nyanja Yofiira pamene amakuthamangitsani, ndi mmene Yehova anawagonjetsera kufikira lero.
5 and that which He has done to you in the wilderness until your coming to this place;
Si ana anu amene anaona zimene Iye anakuchitirani mʼchipululu kufikira pamene munafika pa malo anu,
6 and that which He has done to Dathan and to Abiram, sons of Eliab, sons of Reuben, when the earth has opened her mouth and swallows them, and their houses, and their tents, and all that lives which is at their feet, in the midst of all Israel—
ndi zimene anachitira Datani ndi Abiramu, ana aamuna a Eliabu mwana wa Rubeni, pamene nthaka inatsekula pakamwa pake pakati pa Aisraeli onse ndi kuwameza pamodzi ndi katundu wawo, matenti awo ndi chilichonse chawo.
7 but [it is] your eyes which are seeing all the great work of YHWH which He has done.
Koma ndinuyo amene munaona ntchito zonse zikuluzikulu zimenezi Yehova anakuchitirani.
8 And you have kept all the command which I am commanding you today, so that you are strong, and have gone in, and possessed the land to where you are passing over to possess it,
Tsono muzisunga malamulo onse amene ndikukupatsani lero kuti mukhale ndi mphamvu ndi kuti mupite kukalanda mʼdziko limene mwakhala pangʼono kulowamo mukawoloka Yorodani,
9 and so that you prolong days on the ground which YHWH has sworn to your fathers to give to them and to their seed—a land flowing with milk and honey.
ndiponso kuti mukhalitse mʼdziko limene Yehova analumbira kupatsa makolo anu ndi zidzukulu zawo, lomwe ndi dziko loyenda mkaka ndi uchi.
10 For the land to where you are going in to possess it is not as the land of Egypt from where you have come out, where you sow your seed and have watered with your foot, as a garden of the green herb;
Dziko limene mukukalanda ndi kulowamo silokhala ngati dziko la ku Igupto kumene mukuchokera ayi, kuja mumadzala mbewu ndi kumathirira ndi mapazi anu ngati ku dimba.
11 but the land to where you are passing over to possess it [is] a land of hills and valleys—it drinks water of the rain of the heavens—
Koma dziko limene mukalande mukawoloka Yorodani ndi dziko la mapiri ndi zigwa, dziko limene limalandira mvula kuchokera kumwamba.
12 a land which your God YHWH is searching; the eyes of your God YHWH [are] continually on it, from the beginning of the year even to the latter end of the year.
Ili ndi dziko limene Yehova Mulungu wanu amalisamalira. Maso a Yehova Mulungu wanu amaliyangʼanira nthawi zonse kuchokera ku mayambiriro a chaka mpaka kumapeto kwake.
13 And it has been, if you listen diligently to My commands which I am commanding you today, to love your God YHWH, and to serve Him with all your heart and with all your soul,
Choncho mukasunga mokhulupirika malamulo amene ndikukupatsani lero lino, kukonda Yehova Mulungu wanu ndi kumutumikira Iyeyo ndi mtima wanu wonse ndi moyo wanu wonse,
14 then I have given the rain of your land in its season—autumn rain and spring rain—and you have gathered your grain, and your new wine, and your oil,
pamenepo ndidzatumiza mvula mʼdziko mwanu pa nthawi yake mʼnyengo ya dzinja ndi chilimwe, kuti mudzakolole tirigu wambiri ndi kuti mudzakhale ndi vinyo watsopano ndi mafuta.
15 and I have given herbs in your field for your livestock, and you have eaten and been satisfied.
Ndidzakupatsani udzu mʼminda mwanu woti muzidzadyetsera ngʼombe zanu ndipo inuyo mudzadya ndi kukhuta.
16 Take heed to yourselves lest your heart be enticed, and you have turned aside, and served other gods, and bowed yourselves to them,
Dzisamalireni nokha, kuopa kuti mungakopeke mtima ndi kubwerera mʼmbuyo kuyamba kutumikira milungu ina ndi kumayigwadira.
17 and the anger of YHWH has burned against you, and He has restrained the heavens and there is no rain, and the ground does not give her increase, and you have perished quickly from off the good land which YHWH is giving to you.
Mukatero Yehova Mulungu wanu adzakukwiyirani kwambiri, nadzaletsa thambo kuti lisabweretsenso mvula ndipo dziko silidzapereka zokolola. Choncho mudzawonongeka msanga mʼdziko limene Yehova akukupatsani.
18 And you have placed these words of mine on your heart and on your soul, and have bound them for a sign on your hand, and they have been for frontlets between your eyes;
Sungani mawu amenewa mu mtima mwanu ndi mʼmaganizo mwanu, muwamangirire pa mikono yanu ndipo muwayike pamphumi panu.
19 and you have taught them to your sons by speaking of them in your sitting in your house, and in your going in the way, and in your lying down, and in your rising up,
Mawuwa muziphunzitsa ana anu, muzikamba za iwo pamene mukhala pansi mʼnyumba zanu, pamene mukuyenda mʼnjira, pamene mugona ndi pamene mukudzuka.
20 and have written them on the doorposts of your house and on your gates,
Muwalembe pa mphuthu za nyumba zanu ndi pa zipata zanu,
21 so that your days are multiplied, and the days of your sons, on the ground which YHWH has sworn to your fathers to give to them, as the days of the heavens above the earth.
kuti inu ndi ana anu mukhale mʼdziko limene Yehova analumbira kupatsa makolo anu mpaka kalekale monga umakhalira mlengalenga pamwamba pa dziko.
22 For if you diligently keep all this command which I am commanding you to do—to love your God YHWH, to walk in all His ways, and to cleave to Him—
Mukatsatira mosamalitsa malamulo amene ndikukupatsaniwa, kukonda Yehova Mulungu wanu, kuyenda mʼnjira zake zonse ndi kumugwiritsitsa Iye
23 then YHWH has dispossessed all these nations from before you, and you have possessed nations greater and mightier than you.
Yehova adzapirikitsa mitundu ina yonseyi inu musanafike ndipo mudzagonjetsa mitundu ikuluikulu ndi yamphamvu kuposa inu.
24 Every place on which the sole of your foot treads is yours: from the wilderness and Lebanon, from the river, the Euphrates River, even to the Western Sea, is your border.
Malo aliwonse amene mudzaponda adzakhala anu: dziko lanu lidzachokera ku chipululu mpaka ku Lebanoni, ndi ku Mtsinje wa Yufurate mpaka ku nyanja ya kumadzulo.
25 No man stations himself in your presence; your God YHWH puts your dread and your fear on the face of all the land on which you tread, as He has spoken to you.
Palibe munthu amene adzalimbana nanu. Monga analonjezera, Yehova adzachititsa kuti anthu onse mʼdziko limene mukupitalo adzachite nanu mantha ndi kukuopani.
26 See, today I am setting before you a blessing and a reviling:
Taonani, lero ndikuyika dalitso ndi temberero pakati panu,
27 the blessing when you listen to the commands of your God YHWH which I am commanding you today;
dalitso ngati mumvera malamulo a Yehova Mulungu wanu amene ndikukupatsani lero.
28 and the reviling if you do not listen to the commands of your God YHWH, and have turned aside from the way which I am commanding you today, to go after other gods which you have not known.
Temberero ngati simumvera malamulo a Yehova Mulungu wanu ndi kupatuka pa njira imene ndikulamulirani lero potsata milungu ina imene simunayidziwe.
29 And it has been, when your God YHWH brings you into the land to where you are going in to possess it, that you have given the blessing on Mount Gerizim and the reviling on Mount Ebal;
Yehova Mulungu wanu akakakufikitsani mʼdziko mukukalandalo kuti mulowemo mukanene za madalitso pa Phiri la Gerizimu, ndi za matemberero pa Phiri la Ebala.
30 are they not beyond the Jordan, behind the way of the going in of the sun, in the land of the Canaanite who is dwelling in the plain opposite Gilgal, near the oaks of Moreh?
Monga mudziwa, mapiriwa ali kutsidya kwa Yorodani, kumadzulo kolowera dzuwa, kufupi ndi mitengo ya thundu ya More, mʼdziko la Akanaani aja okhala ku Araba moyangʼanana ndi Giligala.
31 For you are passing over the Jordan to go in to possess the land which your God YHWH is giving to you; and you have possessed it, and dwelt in it,
Mwatsala pangʼono kuwoloka Yorodani kuti mulowe ndi kutenga dziko limene Yehova Mulungu wanu akukupatsani. Mukadzalitenga dzikolo ndi kukhalamo,
32 and observed to do all the statutes and the judgments which I am setting before you today.”
mudzaonetsetse kuti mukumvera malangizo ndi malamulo amene ndikukuwuzani lero.
