Exodus 20
1 And God speaks all these words, saying,
Chineke kwuru okwu ndị a niile sị:
2 “I [am] your God YHWH, who has brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of a house of servants.
“Mụ onwe m bụ Onyenwe anyị Chineke unu, onye kpọpụtara unu site nʼIjipt, bụ ala nke ibu ohu.
3 You have no other Gods before Me.
“Ị gaghị enwe chi ọzọ tinyere m.
4 You do not make a carved image for yourself, or any likeness which [is] in the heavens above, or which [is] in the earth beneath, or which [is] in the waters under the earth.
Gị emerela onwe gị arụsị a pịrị apị, nʼoyiyi nke ụdị ọbụla nke yiri ihe dị nʼeluigwe maọbụ nke yiri ihe dị nʼụwa, nʼokpuru ya maọbụ nʼime mmiri, nʼokpuru ụwa.
5 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, on a third and on a fourth [generation] of those hating Me,
Gị akpọla isiala nye ha, efekwala ha ofufe, nʼihi na Mụ onwe m bụ Onyenwe anyị Chineke gị, abụ m Chineke ekworo. Onye na-ata ụmụ na ụmụ ụmụ ahụhụ, nʼihi ajọ omume nke ndị mụrụ ha, ọ bụladị ruo nʼọgbọ nke atọ na nke anọ, nke ndị ahụ kpọrọ m asị.
6 and doing kindness to thousands, of those loving Me and keeping My commands.
Ma na egosi ịhụnanya nye puku ọgbọ niile nke ndị hụrụ m nʼanya, bụ ndị na-edebe ihe niile m nyere nʼiwu.
7 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.
Gị ejikwala aha Onyenwe anyị bụ Chineke gị eme ihe efu, nʼihi na Onyenwe anyị agaghị agụ onye ji aha ya eme ihe efu dịka onye ikpe na-amaghị.
8 Remember the Sabbath day to sanctify it;
Cheta ụbọchị izuike site nʼido ya nsọ.
9 six days you labor and have done all your work,
Nʼime ụbọchị isii ka ị ga-eje ozi gị niile. Ọ bụkwa nʼime ha ka ị ga-arụzu ọrụ gị niile.
10 and the seventh day [is] a Sabbath to your God YHWH; you do not do any work, you, and your son, and your daughter, your manservant, and your handmaid, and your livestock, and your sojourner who is within your gates—
Ma ụbọchị nke asaa bụ ụbọchị izuike nke Onyenwe anyị Chineke gị. Ị gaghị arụ ọrụ ọbụla nʼụbọchị ahụ, gị onwe gị, nwa gị nwoke na nwa gị nwanyị, onye ọrụ gị nwoke, onye ọrụ gị nwanyị, maọbụ anụ ụlọ gị ọbụla, ọbụladị onye ọbịa bi nʼobodo gị.
11 for [in] six days YHWH has made the heavens and the earth, the sea, and all that [is] in them, and rests in the seventh day; therefore YHWH has blessed the Sabbath day and sanctifies it.
Nʼihi na ọ bụ nʼime ụbọchị isii ka Onyenwe anyị kere eluigwe na ụwa, na oke osimiri, na ihe niile dị nʼime ha. O zuru ike nʼụbọchị nke asaa. Nʼihi nke a Onyenwe anyị gọziri ụbọchị nke asaa doo ya nsọ, ka ọ bụrụ ụbọchị izuike.
12 Honor your father and your mother, so that your days are prolonged on the ground which your God YHWH is giving to you.
Sọpụrụ nne gị na nna gị, dịka Onyenwe anyị Chineke gị nyere gị nʼiwu, ka ụbọchị ndụ gị dị ogologo nʼala ahụ nke Onyenwe anyị Chineke gị na-enye gị.
13 You do not murder.
Gị egbula mmadụ.
14 You do not commit adultery.
Gị akwala iko.
15 You do not steal.
Gị ezula ohi.
16 You do not answer [with] a false testimony against your neighbor.
Agbala ama ụgha megide onye agbataobi gị.
17 You do not desire the house of your neighbor, you do not desire the wife of your neighbor, or his manservant, or his handmaid, or his ox, or his donkey, or anything which [is] your neighbor’s.”
Gị enwela anya ukwu nʼebe ụlọ onye agbataobi gị dị. Gị enwekwala anya ukwu nʼebe nwunye onye agbataobi gị dị, maọbụ ohu ya nwoke maọbụ ohu ya nwanyị, ehi ya maọbụ ịnyịnya ibu ya, ma ọ bụkwanụ nʼihe ọbụla nke onye agbataobi gị nwere dị.”
18 And all the people are seeing the voices, and the flames, and the sound of the horn, and the mountain smoking; and the people see, and move, and stand far off,
Mgbe ndị Izrel hụrụ egbe eluigwe, na amụma ọkụ, na opi ike, hụkwa ugwu ahụ ka o jupụtakwara nʼanwụrụ ọkụ, ha mara jijiji nʼihi egwu. Ha guzoro nʼebe dị anya,
19 and say to Moses, “Speak with us, and we hear, and do not let God speak with us, lest we die.”
sị Mosis, “Biko ka gị onwe gị gwa anyị okwu, anyị ga-anụ ma ka Chineke gharakwa ịgwa anyị okwu, ma ọ bụghị ya, anyị ga-anwụ.”
20 And Moses says to the people, “Do not fear, for God has come to try you, and in order that His fear may be before your faces—that you do not sin.”
Mosis sịrị ndị Izrel, “Unu atụkwala ụjọ, nʼihi na Chineke bịara ịnwale unu ime ka unu na-atụ ya egwu mgbe ọbụla ka unu ghara imehie megide ya.”
21 And the people stand far off, and Moses has drawn near to the thick darkness where God [is].
Nʼihi nke a, mmadụ niile guzoro nʼebe dị anya site nʼugwu ahụ. Ma Mosis bara nʼime igwe ojii ahụ, ebe Chineke nʼonwe ya nọ.
22 And YHWH says to Moses, “Thus you say to the sons of Israel: You have seen that I have spoken with you from the heavens;
Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis okwu sị ya, “Gwa ụmụ Izrel okwu sị, ‘Unu onwe unu ahụla na m si nʼeluigwe gwa unu okwu.
23 you do not make gods of silver and gods of gold [to be] with Me—you do not make [any idol] for yourselves.
Unu emerela onwe unu chi ọzọ tinyere m, chi ọlaọcha maọbụ chi ọlaedo. Unu emerela onwe unu ha.
24 You make an altar of earth for Me, and you have sacrificed on it your burnt-offerings and your peace-offerings, your flock and your herd; in every place where I cause My Name to be remembered I come to you, and have blessed you.
“‘Ebe ịchụ aja unu ga-ewuru m ga-abụ nke unu ji naanị aja wuo. Nʼebe ahụ ka unu ga-achụrụ m aja nsure ọkụ na aja udo. Unu ga-ejikwa igwe ewu na atụrụ, na ehi chụọrọ m aja. Unu ga-ewuru m ebe ịchụ aja naanị ebe ọbụla m mere ka aha m bụrụ ihe a na-asọpụrụ, nʼebe ahụ ka m ga-abịa gọzie unu.
25 And if you make an altar of stones for Me, you do not build them of hewn work; when you have waved your tool over it, then you defile it;
Ọ bụrụ na unu ewuo ebe ịchụ aja nkume, unu ejikwala nkume a wara awa, nʼihi na unu ga-eme ka ọ ghara ịdị nsọ ma ọ bụrụ na unu ejiri ngwa ọrụ wagharịa nkume ya.
26 neither do you go up by steps on My altar, that your nakedness is not revealed on it.
Unu ejila ihe nrigo gbagoro nʼebe ịchụ aja m, ka a ghara ikpughe ọtọ unu nʼelu ya.’
