Deuteronomy 27
1 Moses/I, along with the other Israeli leaders, said this to the people: “Obey all the commandments that I am giving to you today.
Mose ndi akuluakulu a Israeli analamula anthu kuti, “Sungani malamulo onse amene ndikukupatsani lero lino.
2 [Soon] you will cross the Jordan [River] and enter the land that Yahweh, the God whom our ancestors [worshiped], promised to give to you. There, in that very fertile [IDM] land on the [west] side of the Jordan [River], set up some large stones [on Ebal Mountain], and cover them with plaster. Then write on those stones all these laws and teachings/instructions.
Mukawoloka mtsinje wa Yorodani kulowa mʼdziko limene Yehova Mulungu wanu akukupatsani, muyimiritse miyala ingapo ikuluikulu ndi kuyikulungiza.
Mulembepo mawu onse a malamulo amenewa pamene muwoloka kulowa mʼdziko limene Yehova Mulungu wanu akukupatsani, dziko loyenda mkaka ndi uchi, monga momwe Yehova Mulungu wa makolo anu anakulonjezerani.
Ndipo mukawoloka Yorodani muyimike miyala iyi pa Phiri la Ebala monga momwe ndikukulamulirani lero lino ndipo muyikulungize.
5 And build a stone altar there to offer sacrifices to Yahweh, but do not cut those stones with iron tools.
Pamenepo mumange guwa lansembe la miyala la Yehova Mulungu wanu. Musagwiritse ntchito chida chilichonse chachitsulo pa miyalapo.
6 The altar that you make to burn sacrifices to Yahweh our God must be made with uncut stones.
Mumange guwa lansembe la Yehova Mulungu wanu ndi miyala yakutchire ndi kuperekerapo nsembe yopsereza kwa Yehova Mulungu wanu.
7 And there you must sacrifice offerings to maintain fellowship with Yahweh, and you must eat [your share of those offerings] and rejoice/celebrate in the presence of Yahweh.
Muperekerepo nsembe zopereka za chiyanjano, muzidye ndi kukondwera pamaso pa Yehova Mulungu wanu.
8 And, when you write these laws on those stones, you must write them very clearly.”
Ndipo pa miyalapo mudzalembepo mawu onse a malamulo ndi malemba akuluakulu.”
9 Then Moses/I, along with the priests, said to all the Israeli people, “You Israeli people, be quiet and listen [to what I am saying]. Today you have become the people who belong to Yahweh, our God.
Kenaka Mose ndi ansembe, amene ndi Alevi anati kwa Aisraeli onse, “Khalani chete Aisraeli inu ndipo mumvetsere! Tsopano inu ndinu anthu a Yehova Mulungu wanu.
10 So, you must do what he tells you, and obey all the rules and regulations that I am giving to you today.”
Muzimvera Yehova Mulungu wanu ndi kutsata malamulo ake ndi malangizo ake omwe ndikukupatsani lero lino.”
11 On that same day Moses/I said to the Israeli people,
Tsiku lomwelo Mose analamula anthu kuti:
12 “After you have crossed over the Jordan [River], the tribes of Simeon, Levi, Judah, Issachar, Joseph, and Benjamin must stand on Gerizim Mountain and [request Yahweh to] bless the people.
Mukawoloka Yorodani, mafuko awa akayimirire pa Phiri la Gerizimu ndi kudalitsa anthu: Simeoni, Levi, Yuda, Isakara, Yosefe ndi Benjamini.
13 And the tribes of Reuben, Gad, Asher, Zebulun, Dan, and Naphtali must stand on Ebal Mountain and listen to the things that Yahweh will do when he curses the people.
Ndipo mafuko awa akayimirire pa Phiri la Ebala ndi kutchula matemberero: Rubeni, Gadi, Aseri, Zebuloni, Dani ndi Nafutali.
14 The descendants of Levi must shout these words loudly:
Alevi adzayankhula mokweza kwa Aisraeli onse kuti:
15 ‘Yahweh will curse anyone who makes an idol of stone, or of wood, or of metal, and secretly sets it up [and worships it]. Yahweh considers that those things, made by humans [SYN], are detestable/disgusting.’ And all the people must reply, ‘(Amen/We want that to happen).’
“Ndi wotembereredwa munthu amene asema chifanizo kapena kupanga fano, ndi kuchiyika mobisa, pakuti chimenechi ndi chinthu chodetsedwa pamaso pa Yehova, ntchito za manja a anthu.”
16 ‘Yahweh will curse anyone who dishonors his father or his mother.’ And all the people must reply, ‘(Amen/We want that to happen).’
“Ndi wotembereredwa munthu amene sachitira ulemu abambo ake kapena amayi ake.”
17 ‘Yahweh will curse anyone who removes someone else’s markers of property boundaries.’ And all the people must reply, ‘(Amen/We want that to happen).’
“Ndi wotembereredwa munthu amene amasuntha mwala wa malire wa mnzake.”
18 ‘Yahweh will curse anyone who leads a blind person to go (in the wrong direction/where that person does not want to go).’ And all the people must reply, ‘(Amen/We want that to happen).’
“Ndi wotembereredwa munthu amene amasocheretsa munthu wosaona pa msewu.”
19 ‘Yahweh will curse anyone who deprives foreigners or orphans or widows of the things that the laws state must be done for them.’ And all the people must reply, ‘(Amen/We want that to happen).’
“Ndi wotembereredwa munthu amene sachitira chilungamo mlendo, ana amasiye kapena mkazi wamasiye.”
20 ‘Yahweh will curse anyone who (shows no respect for/disgraces his father) by having sex with [EUP] any of his father’s wives.’ And all the people must reply, ‘(Amen/We want that to happen).’
“Ndi wotembereredwa munthu amene agonana ndi mkazi wa abambo ake pakuti iye sachitira ulemu pogona pa abambo ake.”
21 ‘Yahweh will curse anyone who has sex [EUP] with any animal.’ And all the people must reply, ‘(Amen/We want that to happen).’
“Ndi wotembereredwa munthu amene achita chigololo ndi nyama ya mtundu uli wonse.”
22 ‘Yahweh will curse anyone who has sex with his sister or with his half-sister.’ And all the people must reply, ‘(Amen/We want that to happen).’
“Ndi wotembereredwa munthu amene agonana ndi mlongo wake, mwana wamkazi wa abambo ake kapena mwana wamkazi wa amayi ake.”
23 ‘Yahweh will curse anyone who has sex with [EUP] his mother-in-law.’ And all the people must reply, ‘(Amen/We want that to happen).’
“Ndi wotembereredwa munthu amene agonana ndi apongozi ake.”
24 ‘Yahweh will curse anyone who secretly murders someone else.’ And all the people must reply, ‘(Amen/We want that to happen).’
“Ndi wotembereredwa munthu amene apha mnzake mwachinsinsi.”
25 ‘Yahweh will curse anyone who accepts a bribe to murder someone who (is innocent/has not done something that is wrong.)’ And all the people must reply, ‘(Amen/We want that to happen).’
“Ndi wotembereredwa munthu amene alandira chiphuphu kuti aphe munthu wosalakwa.”
26 ‘Yahweh will curse anyone who disobeys these laws and refuses to declare that these laws [are good].’ And all the people must reply, ‘(Amen/We want that to happen).’”
“Ndi wotembereredwa aliyense amene sachita kapena sasunga mawu a malamulo awa.”
