< Deuteronomy 23 >

1 He that is wounded or mutilated in his secrets, shall not enter into the congregation of the LORD.
Mwamuna aliyense wofulidwa kapena woduka chiwalo chachimuna asalowe nawo mu msonkhano wa Yehova.
2 A bastard shall not enter into the congregation of the LORD; even to his tenth generation shall he not enter into the congregation of the LORD.
Aliyense wobadwa mʼbanja losavomerezeka, kapena mdzukulu wake wina aliyense, ngakhale mibado khumi pambuyo pake, asalowe mu msonkhano wa Yehova.
3 An Ammonite or Moabite shall not enter into the congregation of the LORD; even to their tenth generation shall they not enter into the congregation of the LORD for ever:
Mwamoni kapena Mmowabu asalowe mu msonkhano wa anthu a Yehova ngakhale mibado khumi yobwera pambuyo pake.
4 Because they met you not with bread and with water in the way, when ye came forth from Egypt; and because they hired against thee Balaam the son of Beor of Pethor of Mesopotamia, to curse thee.
Pakuti iwowa sanabwere kudzakulonjerani ndi chakudya kapena madzi pamene mumadutsa pochokera ku Igupto, mʼmalo mwake anakalemba ganyu Balaamu mwana wa Beori wochokera ku Petori ku Mesopotamiya kuti akutemberereni.
5 Nevertheless, the LORD thy God would not hearken to Balaam: but the LORD thy God turned the curse into a blessing to thee, because the LORD thy God loved thee.
Komabe Yehova Mulungu wanu sanamvere Balaamu koma anatembenuza temberero kukhala dalitso kwa inu chifukwa Yehova Mulungu wanu amakukondani.
6 Thou shalt not seek their peace, nor their prosperity all thy days for ever.
Musachite nawo mgwirizano uliwonse wa mtendere pa moyo wanu wonse.
7 Thou shalt not abhor an Edomite, for he [is] thy brother: thou shalt not abhor an Egyptian, because thou wast a stranger in his land.
Musapeputse Mwedomu pakuti ndi mʼbale wanu ndithu. Musapeputse Mwigupto chifukwa munali alendo mʼdziko lake.
8 The children that are begotten by them shall enter into the congregation of the LORD in their third generation.
Mʼbado wachitatu wa ana awo akhoza kulowa mu msonkhano wa anthu a Yehova.
9 When the host goeth forth against thy enemies, then keep thee from every wicked thing.
Mukamakhala pa msasa pokonzekera adani anu, musayandikane ndi china chilichonse chodetsedwa.
10 If there shall be among you any man that is not clean by reason of uncleanness that chanceth to him by night, then shall he go abroad out of the camp, he shall not come within the camp:
Wina mwa asilikali anu akadziwonongera ndi umuna usiku, ayenera kuchoka pa msasapo ndipo akhale kunja kwa msasa.
11 But it shall be, when evening cometh on, he shall wash [himself] with water: and when the sun is down, he shall come into the camp [again].
Koma dzuwa likapendeka ayenera kusamba ndipo polowa dzuwa akhoza kubwerera ku msasa.
12 Thou shalt have a place also without the camp, whither thou shalt go forth abroad:
Mukonze malo kunja kwa msasa kumene mukhoza kukadzithandizirako.
13 And thou shalt have a paddle upon thy weapon: and it shall be when thou wilt ease thyself abroad, thou shalt dig with it, and shalt turn back, and cover that which cometh from thee:
Pakati pa zida zanu muzikhala ndi china chokumbira, ndipo pokadzithandiza muzikumba kadzenje ndi kukwirira chimbudzi chanu.
14 For the LORD thy God walketh in the midst of thy camp, to deliver thee, and to give up thy enemies before thee; therefore shall thy camp be holy: that he may see no unclean thing in thee, and turn away from thee.
Pakuti Yehova Mulungu wanu amayendayenda ku msasa wanu kukutchinjirizani ndi kupereka adani anu kwa inu. Nʼchifukwa chake msasa wanu uzikhala wopatulika kuti mwina angaone china chonyansa nabwerera osakuyandikirani.
15 Thou shalt not deliver to his master the servant who hath escaped from his master to thee:
Ngati kapolo wathawa mbuye wake nakabisala kwanu, musamuperekenso kwa mbuye wakeyo.
16 He shall dwell with thee, [even] among you in that place which he shall choose in one of thy gates where it pleaseth him best: thou shalt not oppress him.
Mumulole akhale pakati panu, paliponse pamene angakonde, mʼmudzi umene angasankhe ndipo musamupondereze.
17 There shall be no harlot of the daughters of Israel, nor a sodomite of the sons of Israel.
Pasapezeke Mwisraeli wamwamuna kapena wamkazi wochita chiwerewere ku Nyumba ya Mulungu.
18 Thou shalt not bring the hire of a harlot, or the price of a dog into the house of the LORD thy God for any vow: for even both these [are] abomination to the LORD thy God.
Musabweretse malipiro a wachiwerewere wamkazi kapena wamwamuna Mʼnyumba ya Yehova Mulungu wanu kudzapereka za malumbiro aliwonse, chifukwa Yehova Mulungu wanu amadana ndi zimenezi.
19 Thou shalt not lend upon interest to thy brother; interest of money, interest of victuals, interest of any thing that is lent upon interest:
Musamalipitse mʼbale wanu chiwongoladzanja, kaya pa ndalama, kapena pa chakudya, kapena pa china chilichonse choti nʼkupereketsa chiwongoladzanja.
20 To a stranger thou mayest lend upon interest; but to thy brother thou shalt not lend upon interest; that the LORD thy God may bless thee in all that thou settest thy hand to in the land whither thou goest to possess it.
Mlendo mukhoza kumulipitsa chiwongoladzanja koma osati mʼbale wanu Mwisraeli, kuti Yehova Mulungu wanu akudalitseni pa zochitika zanu zonse mʼdziko mukulowamoli.
21 When thou shalt vow a vow to the LORD thy God, thou shalt not defer to pay it: for the LORD thy God will surely require it of thee; and it would be sin in thee.
Mukalumbira kupereka kanthu kwa Yehova Mulungu wanu, musamachedwetse kupereka, chifukwa Yehova Mulungu wanu adzakufunsanibe kanthuko ndipo mudzapezeka wochimwa.
22 But if thou shalt forbear to vow, it shall be no sin in thee.
Koma ngati mupewa kupanga mapangano simudzapezeka ochimwa.
23 That which is uttered by thy lips thou shalt keep and perform; [even] a free-will-offering, according as thou hast vowed to the LORD thy God, which thou hast promised with thy mouth.
Zilizonse zimene mulumbira ndi pakamwa panu muzitsimikiza kuzichita, chifukwa mwalumbira mwaufulu pamaso pa Yehova Mulungu wanu ndi pakamwa panu.
24 When thou comest into thy neighbor's vineyard, then thou mayest satisfy thy appetite with grapes at thy own pleasure; but thou shalt not put [any] in thy vessel.
Mukalowa mʼmunda wamphesa wa mnzanu mukhoza kudya mphesa mmene mungafunire koma musayike zina mʼdengu mwanu.
25 When thou comest into the standing-corn of thy neighbor, then thou mayest pluck the ears with thy hand: but thou shalt not move a sickle to thy neighbor's standing-corn.
Mukalowa mʼmunda wa tirigu wa mʼbale wanu, mukhoza kutengako ngala mʼmanja mwanu, koma osasenga tirigu ndi chikwakwa.
