Deuteronomy 5
1 And Moses calls to all Israel and says to them, “Hear, O Israel, the statutes and the judgments which I am speaking in your ears today, and you have learned them and have observed 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 Our God YHWH made a covenant with us in Horeb;
Mukama Katonda waffe yakola naffe endagaano nga tuli e Kolebu.
3 YHWH has not made this covenant with our fathers, but with us, we—these here—all of us living today.
Endagaano eyo Mukama Katonda teyagikola ne bazadde baffe, naye yagikola naffe abali wano era abalamu ku lunaku lwa leero.
4 YHWH has spoken with you face to face on the mountain, out of the midst of the fire;
Mukama Katonda yayogera nammwe nga mwolekaganye naye, ye ng’asinziira mu muliro ku lusozi olunene.
5 I am standing between YHWH and you, at that time, to declare the word of YHWH to you, for you have been afraid from the presence of the fire, and you have not gone up into the mountain; for [He] says:
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, YHWH, [am] your God who has brought you out from the land of Egypt, from a house of servants.
“Nze Mukama Katonda wo, eyakuggya mu Misiri, mu nsi gye mwafuulibwa abaddu.
7 You have no other gods in My presence.
“Tobeeranga na bakatonda balala wabula Nze nzekka.
8 You do not make a carved image for yourself, any likeness which [is] in the heavens above, or which [is] in the earth beneath, or which [is] in the waters 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 You do not bow yourself to them, nor serve them: for I, your God YHWH, [am] a zealous God, charging iniquity of fathers on sons, and on a third and on a fourth [generation] of those hating 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 doing kindness to thousands, of those loving Me and of those keeping My commands.
Naye abo enkumi n’enkumi abanjagala era abakwata amateeka gange, mbalaga okwagala kwange okutaggwaawo.
11 You do not take up the Name of your God YHWH for a vain thing, for YHWH does not acquit him who takes up His Name for a vain thing.
Tokozesanga linnya lya Mukama Katonda wo ng’olayira ebitaliimu nsa: kubanga Mukama talirema kumusalira musango ne gumusinga omuntu oyo alayirira obwereere erinnya lye.
12 Observe the Sabbath day to sanctify it, as your God YHWH has commanded you;
Olunaku lwa Ssabbiiti lujjukirenga era olutukuzenga, nga Mukama Katonda wo bwe yakulagira.
13 six days you labor and have done all your work,
Kolanga emirimu gyo, ofaabiine mu nnaku omukaaga,
14 and the seventh day [is] a Sabbath to your God YHWH; you do not do any work, you, and your son, and your daughter, and your manservant, and your handmaid, and your ox, and your donkey, and all your livestock, and your sojourner who [is] within your gates, so that your manservant and your handmaid rest like yourself.
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 you have remembered that you have been a servant in the land of Egypt, and your God YHWH brings you out from there by a strong hand and by an outstretched arm; therefore your God YHWH has commanded you to keep 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 your father and your mother, as your God YHWH has commanded you, so that your days are prolonged, and so that it is well with you on the ground which your God YHWH is giving to you.
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 You do not murder.
Tottanga.
18 You do not commit adultery.
Toyendanga.
19 You do not steal.
Tobbanga.
20 You do not answer [with] a false testimony against your neighbor.
Towaayirizanga muntu munno.
21 You do not desire your neighbor’s wife, nor do you covet your neighbor’s house, his field, and his manservant, and his handmaid, his ox, and his donkey, and anything which [is] your 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 YHWH has spoken these words to all your assembly in the mountain, out of the midst of the fire, [and] of the cloud, and of the thick darkness, [with] a great voice; and He has not added; and He writes them on two tablets of stone and gives them to 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 comes to pass, as you hear the voice out of the midst of the darkness and of the mountain burning with fire, that you come near to me, all [the] heads of your tribes and your elderly,
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 say, Behold, our God YHWH has showed us His glory and His greatness; and we have heard His voice out of the midst of the fire; this day we have seen that God speaks with man—and he has lived.
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 And now, why do we die? For this great fire consumes us if we add to hear the voice of our God YHWH anymore—then we have died.
Kale, kaakano tufiira ki? Kubanga omuliro guno omungi bwe guti gujja kutusaanyaawo, tufe tuggweewo, singa twongera okuwulira eddoboozi lya Mukama Katonda waffe.
26 For who of all flesh [is] he who has heard the voice of the living God speaking out of the midst of the fire like us, and lives?
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 Draw near and hear all that which our God YHWH says, and you, you speak to us all that which our God YHWH speaks to you, and we have listened and done 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 YHWH hears the voice of your words in your speaking to me, and YHWH says to me, I have heard the voice of the words of this people which they have spoken to you; 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 O that their heart had been thus to them, to fear Me and to keep My commands [for] all the days, that it may be well with them and with their sons for all time!
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 for yourselves, to your tents;
Genda obagambe baddeyo mu weema zaabwe.
31 and you, stand here with Me, and let Me speak to you all the command, and the statutes, and the judgments which you teach them, and they have done [them] in the land which I am giving to 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 And you have observed to do as your God YHWH has commanded you, you do not turn aside [to] the right or left;
“Noolwekyo mwegenderezenga nnyo, mukolenga nga Mukama Katonda wammwe bw’abalagidde; mulemenga okukyama okulaga ku mukono ogwa ddyo oba ogwa kkono.
33 in all the way which your God YHWH has commanded you—walk, so that you live, and [it is] well with you, and you have prolonged days in the land which you 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.”
