< Leviticus 26 >
1 'Ye do not make to yourselves idols; and graven image or standing image ye do not set up to yourselves; and a stone of imagery ye do not put in your land, to bow yourselves to it; for I [am] Jehovah your God.
“‘Musadzipangire mafano ndipo musayimike chifanizo chosema kapena mwala woti mudzipembedza. Musayike mwala wosema mʼdziko mwanu kuti muziwugwadira. Ine ndine Yehova Mulungu wanu.
2 'My sabbaths ye do keep, and My sanctuary ye do reverence; I [am] Jehovah.
“‘Muzisunga Masabata anga ndipo muzilemekeza malo anga wopatulika. Ine ndine Yehova.
3 'If in My statutes ye walk, and My commands ye keep, and have done them,
“‘Mukamayenda motsata malangizo anga ndi kumvera mosamalitsa malamulo anga,
4 then I have given your rains in their season, and the land hath given her produce, and the tree of the field doth give its fruit;
ndidzakupatsani mvula pa nyengo yake. Nthaka yanu idzabala zokolola zake, ndipo mitengo ya mʼmunda idzabala zipatso zake.
5 and reached to you hath the threshing, the gathering, and the gathering doth reach the sowing -[time]; and ye have eaten your bread to satiety, and have dwelt confidently in your land.
Mudzakhala mukupuntha tirigu mpaka nthawi yothyola mphesa, ndipo mudzakhala mukuthyola mphesa mpaka nthawi yodzala. Mudzadya chakudya chanu mpaka kukhuta ndipo mudzakhala mʼdziko lanu mwamtendere.
6 'And I have given peace in the land, and ye have lain down, and there is none causing trembling; and I have caused evil beasts to cease out of the land, and the sword doth not pass over into your land.
“‘Ndidzabweretsa mtendere mʼdziko lanu, ndipo muzidzagona popanda wokuopsezani. Ndidzachotsa nyama zakuthengo zoopsa mʼdziko mwanu, ndipo mʼdzikomo simudzakhala nkhondo.
7 'And ye have pursued your enemies, and they have fallen before you by the sword;
Mudzapirikitsa adani anu, ndipo mudzawagonjetsa ndi lupanga pamaso panu.
8 and five of you have pursued a hundred, and a hundred of you do pursue a myriad; and your enemies have fallen before you by the sword.
Anthu asanu mwa inu adzapirikitsa anthu 100, ndipo anthu 100 mwa inu adzathamangitsa anthu 10,000, ndipo adani anuwo mudzawagonjetsa ndi lupanga.
9 'And I have turned unto you, and have made you fruitful, and have multiplied you, and have established My covenant with you;
“‘Ndidzakukumbukirani ndi kukupatsani ana ambiri ndi kukuchulukitsani. Ndidzasunga pangano langa ndi inu.
10 and ye have eaten old [store], and the old because of the new ye bring out.
Mudzakhala mukudyabe chakudya chogonera ndipo mudzachotse chakudyacho mʼnkhokwe kuti mupezemo malo woyika chakudya china chatsopano.
11 'And I have given My tabernacle in your midst, and My soul doth not loathe you;
Ndidzakhala pakati panu, ndipo sindidzayipidwa nanu.
12 and I have walked habitually in your midst, and have become your God, and ye — ye are become My people;
Ine ndidzayendayenda pakati panu ndipo ndidzakhala Mulungu wanu. Inu mudzakhala anthu anga.
13 I [am] Jehovah your God, who have brought you out of the land of the Egyptians, from being their servants; and I break the bars of your yoke, and cause you to go erect.
Ine ndine Yehova Mulungu wanu amene ndinakutulutsani mʼdziko la Igupto kuti musakhalenso akapolo a Aigupto. Ndinadula mipiringidzo ya goli lanu ndi kukuthandizani kuti muziyenda momasuka.
14 'And if ye do not hearken to Me, and do not all these commands;
“‘Koma mukadzapanda kundimvera ndi kuphwanya malamulo anga onsewa,
15 and if at My statutes ye kick, and if My judgments your soul loathe, so as not to do all My commands — to your breaking My covenant —
ndipo ngati mudzanyoza malangizo anga ndi kunyansidwa ndi malamulo anga, ndi kulephera kumvera zonse zimene ndakulamulani, ndi kuswa pangano langa,
16 I also do this to you, and I have appointed over you trouble, the consumption, and the burning fever, consuming eyes, and causing pain of soul; and your seed in vain ye have sowed, and your enemies have eaten it;
Ine ndidzakuchitirani izi: ndidzabweretsa zoopsa zadzidzidzi monga chifuwa chachikulu chowondetsa ndiponso malungo amene adzawononga maso ndi kufowoketsa moyo wanu. Mudzangovutika kudzala mbewu zanu chifukwa adani anu adzazidya.
17 and I have set My face against you, and ye have been smitten before your enemies; and those hating you have ruled over you, and ye have fled, and there is none pursuing you.
Ndidzakufulatirani, kotero kuti adani anu adzakugonjetsani. Odana nanu adzakulamulirani ndipo inu muzidzagothawa popanda wokupirikitsani.
18 'And if unto these ye hearken not to Me, — then I have added to chastise you seven times for your sins;
“‘Ngati simudzandimvera mutaona zonsezi, ndidzakulanganinso mochulukitsa kasanu ndi kawiri chifukwa cha kuchimwa kwanu.
19 and I have broken the pride of your strength, and have made your heavens as iron, and your earth as brass;
Ndidzathyola mphamvu zanu zimene mukunyadirazo, ndipo ndidzasandutsa mitambo kuti ikhale yowuma ngati chitsulo, ndiponso nthaka yanu kuti ikhale ngati mkuwa.
20 and consumed hath been your strength in vain, and your land doth not give her produce, and the tree of the land doth not give its fruit.
Mphamvu zanu zidzapita pachabe chifukwa nthaka yanu sidzabala kanthu, ngakhale mitengo yake sidzabala zipatso zake.
21 'And if ye walk with Me [in] opposition, and are not willing to hearken to Me, then I have added to you a plague seven times, according to your sins,
“‘Ngati mudzapitirira kutsutsana nane ndi kukana kundimvera, ndidzachulukitsa masautso anu kasanu ndi kawiri molingana ndi machimo anu.
22 and sent against you the beast of the field, and it hath bereaved you; and I have cut off your cattle, and have made you few, and your ways have been desolate.
Ndidzabweretsa zirombo zolusa pakati panu, ndipo zidzakulandani ana anu ndi kuwononga ngʼombe zanu. Choncho zidzachepetsa chiwerengero chanu kotero kuti mʼnjira mwanu simudzapita anthu.
23 'And if by these ye are not instructed by Me, and have walked with Me [in] opposition,
“‘Mukadzapanda kutembenukira kwa Ine ngakhale nditakulangani motere, ndi kumachitabe zotsutsana ndi Ine,
24 then I have walked — I also — with you in opposition, and have smitten you, even I, seven times for your sins;
Ine mwini ndidzalimbana nanu, ndipo ndidzakulangani mochulukitsa kasanu ndi kawiri chifukwa cha machimo anu.
25 and I have brought in on you a sword, executing the vengeance of a covenant; and ye have been gathered unto your cities, and I have sent pestilence into your midst, and ye have been given into the hand of an enemy.
Ndipo ndidzabweretsa lupanga pa inu ndi kukulangani chifukwa chophwanya pangano langa. Mukadzasonkhana mʼmizinda yanu, ndidzatumiza miliri pakati panu ndipo ndidzakuperekani mʼmanja mwa adani anu.
26 'In My breaking to you the staff of bread, then ten women have baked your bread in one oven, and have given back your bread by weight; and ye have eaten, and are not satisfied.
Ndikadzachepetsa buledi wanu, akazi khumi adzaphika buledi wawo mu uvuni umodzi, ndipo adzakugawirani bulediyo pangʼonopangʼono. Choncho mudzadya koma wosakhuta.
27 'And if for this ye hearken not to Me, and have walked with Me in opposition,
“‘Mukadzapanda kundimvera ngakhale nditakulangani motere, ndi kumatsutsanabe ndi Ine,
28 then I have walked with you in the fury of opposition, and have chastised you, even I, seven times for your sins.
pamenepo ndidzalimbana nanu mwaukali, ndipo Ine mwini ndidzakulangani mochulukitsa kasanu ndi kawiri chifukwa cha kuchimwa kwanu.
29 'And ye have eaten the flesh of your sons; even flesh of your daughters ye do eat.
Mudzadya ana anu aamuna ndiponso mudzadya ana anu aakazi.
30 And I have destroyed your high places, and cut down your images, and have put your carcases on the carcases of your idols, and My soul hath loathed you;
Ine ndidzawononga malo anu opembedzera mafano a ku mapiri. Ndidzagwetsa maguwa anu ofukizira lubani, ndipo ndidzawunjika pamodzi mitembo ya mafano anu wopanda moyowo, ndipo ndidzanyansidwa nanu.
31 and I have made your cities a waste, and have made desolate your sanctuaries, and I smell not at your sweet fragrances;
Ndidzasandutsa mizinda yanu kukhala mabwinja ndi kuwononga malo anu wopatulika. Sindidzakondweranso ndi fungo lokoma la zopereka zanu.
32 and I have made desolate the land, and your enemies, who are dwelling in it, have been astonished at it.
Ndidzawononga dziko kotero kuti adani anu mʼmenemo adzadabwa.
33 And you I scatter among nations, and have drawn out after you a sword, and your land hath been a desolation, and your cities are a waste.
Ndidzakubalalitsani pakati pa mitundu ina ya anthu ndipo ndidzasolola lupanga langa ndi kukupirikitsani. Dziko lanu lidzawonongedwa, ndipo mizinda yanu idzasanduka mabwinja.
34 'Then doth the land enjoy its sabbaths — all the days of the desolation, and ye in the land of your enemies — then doth the land rest, and hath enjoyed its sabbaths;
Nthawi imeneyo nthaka idzasangalalira kuyipumitsa kwake nthawi yonse imene idzakhala yosalimidwa, pamene inu mudzakhala muli mʼdziko la adani anu. Pa nthawi imeneyo dziko lidzapumula ndi kukondwerera kulipumuza kwake.
35 all the days of the desolation it resteth that which it hath not rested in your sabbaths in your dwelling on it.
Nthawi zonse pamene dzikolo lidzakhala lopanda anthu, nthaka idzapumula. Mpumulo umenewu udzakhala umene nthakayo sinapumulepo pa nthawi zimene inu munkapumula muli mʼdzikomo.
36 'And those who are left of you — I have also brought a faintness into their heart in the lands of their enemies, and the sound of a leaf driven away hath pursued them, and they have fled — flight from a sword — and they have fallen, and there is none pursuing.
“‘Kunena za amene adzatsale, ndidzayika mantha mʼmitima mwawo mʼdziko la adani awo kotero kuti adzathawa ngakhale mtswatswa wa tsamba lowuluka ndi mphepo. Adzathawa ngati akuthawa lupanga, ndipo adzagwa pansi ngakhale padzakhale wopanda kuwapirikitsa.
37 And they have stumbled one on another, as from the face of a sword, and there is none pursuing, and ye have no standing before your enemies,
Iwo adzaphunthwitsana ngati akuthawa nkhondo, ngakhale padzakhale popanda wowapirikitsa. Choncho simudzatha kuyima pamaso pa adani anu.
38 and ye have perished among the nations, and the land of your enemies hath consumed you.
Mudzatheratu pakati pa mitundu ya anthu. Dziko la adani anu lidzakudyani.
39 'And those who are left of you — they consume away in their iniquity, in the lands of your enemies; and also in the iniquities of their fathers, with them they consume away.
Ngakhale iwo amene adzatsale adzatheratu mʼdziko la adani awo chifukwa cha machimo awo ndi machimo a makolo awo.
40 'And — they have confessed their iniquity, and the iniquity of their fathers, in their trespass which they have trespassed against Me, and also, that they have walked with Me, in opposition,
“‘Tsono adzawulula machimo awo ndi machimo a makolo awo, kusakhulupirika kwawo ndi mayendedwe awo otsutsana nane,
41 also I walk to them in opposition, and have brought them into the land of their enemies — or then their uncircumcised heart is humbled, and then they accept the punishment of their iniquity, —
zomwe zinandipangitsa kuwafulatira ndi kuwapereka mʼmanja mwa adani awo. Ndipo mitima yawo yowumayo ikadzadzichepetsa ndi kuvomera kulangidwa chifukwa cha machimo awo,
42 then I have remembered My covenant [with] Jacob, and also My covenant [with] Isaac, and also My covenant [with] Abraham I remember, and the land I remember.
Ine ndidzakumbukira pangano langa ndi Yakobo, pangano langa ndi Isake, pangano langa ndi Abrahamu. Ndidzakumbukiranso dzikolo.
43 'And — the land is left of them, and doth enjoy its sabbaths, in the desolation without them, and they accept the punishment of their iniquity, because, even because, against My judgments they have kicked, and My statutes hath their soul loathed,
Pakuti adzasiya dziko lawo lopanda anthu, nthaka idzakondwerera zaka zake zoyipumuza pamene iwo kudzakhala kulibe. Koma adzalangidwa chifukwa cha machimo awo popeza anakana malamulo anga ndipo mitima yawo inkayipidwa nawo malangizo anga.
44 and also even this, in their being in the land of their enemies, I have not rejected them, nor have I loathed them, to consume them, to break My covenant with them; for I [am] Jehovah their God; —
Komabe ngakhale adzachite zonsezi ali mʼdziko la adani awo, Ine sindidzawakana kapena kuyipidwa nawo kwakuti nʼkuwawononga kwathunthu ndi kuthetsa pangano langa ndi iwo. Ine ndine Yehova Mulungu wawo.
45 then I have remembered for them the covenant of the ancestors, whom I brought forth out of the land of Egypt before the eyes of the nations to become their God; I [am] Jehovah.'
Koma powachitira chifundo, ndidzakumbukira pangano langa ndi makolo awo amene ndinawatulutsa mʼdziko la Igupto mitundu ina ikuona kuti Ine ndikhale Mulungu wawo. Ine ndine Yehova.’”
46 These [are] the statutes, and the judgments, and the laws, which Jehovah hath given between Him and the sons of Israel, in mount Sinai, by the hand of Moses.
Amenewa ndi malamulo ndi malangizo amene Yehova anawayika pakati pa Iye mwini ndi Aisraeli pa Phiri la Sinai kudzera mwa Mose.
