Deuteronomy 27
1 Moses and the elders of Israel commanded the people, saying, “Keep all the commandment which I command you today.
Mose ndi akuluakulu a Israeli analamula anthu kuti, “Sungani malamulo onse amene ndikukupatsani lero lino.
2 It shall be on the day when you shall pass over the Jordan to the land which Yahweh your God gives you, that you shall set yourself up great stones, and coat them with plaster.
Mukawoloka mtsinje wa Yorodani kulowa mʼdziko limene Yehova Mulungu wanu akukupatsani, muyimiritse miyala ingapo ikuluikulu ndi kuyikulungiza.
3 You shall write on them all the words of this law, when you have passed over, that you may go in to the land which Yahweh your God gives you, a land flowing with milk and honey, as Yahweh, the God of your fathers, has promised you.
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.
4 It shall be, when you have crossed over the Jordan, that you shall set up these stones, which I command you today, on Mount Ebal, and you shall coat them with plaster.
Ndipo mukawoloka Yorodani muyimike miyala iyi pa Phiri la Ebala monga momwe ndikukulamulirani lero lino ndipo muyikulungize.
5 There you shall build an altar to Yahweh your God, an altar of stones. You shall not use any iron tool on them.
Pamenepo mumange guwa lansembe la miyala la Yehova Mulungu wanu. Musagwiritse ntchito chida chilichonse chachitsulo pa miyalapo.
6 You shall build Yahweh your God’s altar of uncut stones. You shall offer burnt offerings on it to Yahweh your God.
Mumange guwa lansembe la Yehova Mulungu wanu ndi miyala yakutchire ndi kuperekerapo nsembe yopsereza kwa Yehova Mulungu wanu.
7 You shall sacrifice peace offerings, and shall eat there. You shall rejoice before Yahweh your God.
Muperekerepo nsembe zopereka za chiyanjano, muzidye ndi kukondwera pamaso pa Yehova Mulungu wanu.
8 You shall write on the stones all the words of this law very plainly.”
Ndipo pa miyalapo mudzalembepo mawu onse a malamulo ndi malemba akuluakulu.”
9 Moses and the Levitical priests spoke to all Israel, saying, “Be silent and listen, Israel! Today you have become the people of Yahweh your 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 You shall therefore obey Yahweh your God’s voice, and do his commandments and his statutes, which I command you today.”
Muzimvera Yehova Mulungu wanu ndi kutsata malamulo ake ndi malangizo ake omwe ndikukupatsani lero lino.”
11 Moses commanded the people the same day, saying,
Tsiku lomwelo Mose analamula anthu kuti:
12 “These shall stand on Mount Gerizim to bless the people, when you have crossed over the Jordan: Simeon, Levi, Judah, Issachar, Joseph, and Benjamin.
Mukawoloka Yorodani, mafuko awa akayimirire pa Phiri la Gerizimu ndi kudalitsa anthu: Simeoni, Levi, Yuda, Isakara, Yosefe ndi Benjamini.
13 These shall stand on Mount Ebal for the curse: Reuben, Gad, Asher, Zebulun, Dan, and Naphtali.
Ndipo mafuko awa akayimirire pa Phiri la Ebala ndi kutchula matemberero: Rubeni, Gadi, Aseri, Zebuloni, Dani ndi Nafutali.
14 With a loud voice, the Levites shall say to all the men of Israel,
Alevi adzayankhula mokweza kwa Aisraeli onse kuti:
15 ‘Cursed is the man who makes an engraved or molten image, an abomination to Yahweh, the work of the hands of the craftsman, and sets it up in secret.’ All the people shall answer and say, ‘Amen.’
“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 ‘Cursed is he who dishonors his father or his mother.’ All the people shall say, ‘Amen.’
“Ndi wotembereredwa munthu amene sachitira ulemu abambo ake kapena amayi ake.”
17 ‘Cursed is he who removes his neighbor’s landmark.’ All the people shall say, ‘Amen.’
“Ndi wotembereredwa munthu amene amasuntha mwala wa malire wa mnzake.”

20 ‘Cursed is he who lies with his father’s wife, because he dishonors his father’s bed.’ All the people shall say, ‘Amen.’

“Ndi wotembereredwa munthu amene agonana ndi mlongo wake, mwana wamkazi wa abambo ake kapena mwana wamkazi wa amayi ake.”
23 ‘Cursed is he who lies with his mother-in-law.’ All the people shall say, ‘Amen.’
“Ndi wotembereredwa munthu amene agonana ndi apongozi ake.”
24 ‘Cursed is he who secretly kills his neighbor.’ All the people shall say, ‘Amen.’
“Ndi wotembereredwa munthu amene apha mnzake mwachinsinsi.”
25 ‘Cursed is he who takes a bribe to kill an innocent person.’ All the people shall say, ‘Amen.’
“Ndi wotembereredwa munthu amene alandira chiphuphu kuti aphe munthu wosalakwa.”
26 ‘Cursed is he who doesn’t uphold the words of this law by doing them.’ All the people shall say, ‘Amen.’”
“Ndi wotembereredwa aliyense amene sachita kapena sasunga mawu a malamulo awa.”
