1 Mu kiseera ekyo Mukama Katonda n’aŋŋamba nti, “Tema mu jjinja ebipande bibiri eby’amayinja ebifaanana nga biri ebyasooka, era obajje n’Essanduuko ey’omuti, olyoke oyambuke gye ndi ku lusozi.
At that time the LORD said to me, "Cut two tablets of stone like the first, and come up to me onto the mountain, and make an ark of wood.
2 Nzija kuwandiika ku bipande ebyo ebigambo ebyali ku bipande ebyasooka, bye wayasa; olyoke obiteeke mu Ssanduuko.”
I will write on the tables the words that were on the first tables which you broke, and you shall put them in the ark."
3 Bwe ntyo ne mbajja Essanduuko mu muti ogw’akasiya, ne ntema ne mu jjinja ebipande bibiri eby’amayinja nga bifaanana nga biri ebyasooka, ne ndyoka nyambuka ku lusozi nga nkutte ebipande byombi mu ngalo zange.
So I made an ark of acacia wood, and cut two tablets of stone like the first, and went up onto the mountain, having the two tablets in my hand.
4 Mukama Katonda n’awandiika ku bipande ebyo ebigambo bye yali awandiise ku bipande biri ebyasooka, ge Mateeka Ekkumi ge yali abalangiridde ku lusozi ng’ali wakati mu muliro, ku lunaku lwe mwakuŋŋaanirako. Mukama Katonda n’abinkwasa.
He wrote on the tables, according to the first writing, the ten commandments, which the LORD spoke to you on the mountain out of the midst of the fire in the day of the assembly: and the LORD gave them to me.
5 Bwe ntyo ne nkyusa obuwufu ne nzikirira okuva ku lusozi, ebipande ne mbiteeka mu Ssanduuko gye nabajja, nga Mukama Katonda bwe yandagira, ne kaakano mwe biri.
I turned and came down from the mountain, and put the tables in the ark which I had made; and there they are as the LORD commanded me.
6 Abaana ba Isirayiri ne batambula okuva e Beeru Beneyaakani ne batuuka e Mosera. Awo Alooni we yafiira era we yaziikibwa. Mutabani we Eriyazaali n’amusikira n’atandika okukola emirimu gya Alooni egy’Obwakabona.
(The children of Israel traveled from Beeroth Bene Jaakan to Moserah. There Aaron died, and there he was buried; and Eleazar his son ministered in the priest's office in his place.
7 Bwe baava awo ne batambula okutuuka e Gudugoda; bwe baava e Gudugoda ne batuuka e Yotubasa, nga mu nsi eyo mulimu emigga egyali gikulukuta amazzi.
From there they traveled to Gudgodah; and from Gudgodah to Jotbathah, a land of brooks of water.
8 Mu kiseera ekyo Mukama n’ayawula ekika kya Leevi okusitulanga Essanduuko ey’Endagaano ya Mukama, n’okuyimiriranga mu maaso ga Mukama Katonda, n’okwatulanga emikisa gye mu linnya lye, nga bwe bakyakola n’okutuusa leero.
At that time the LORD set apart the tribe of Levi, to bear the ark of the covenant of the LORD, to stand before the LORD to minister to him, and to bless in his name, to this day.
9 Noolwekyo Abaleevi tebaafuna mugabo wadde ekitundu eky’obusika mu nsi ensuubize nga baganda baabwe ab’ebika ebirala bwe baafuna; kubanga Mukama bwe busika bwabwe, nga Mukama Katonda wo bwe yabagamba.
Therefore Levi has no portion nor inheritance with his brothers; the LORD is his inheritance, according as the LORD your God spoke to him.)
10 Nabeerayo ku lusozi ne mmalayo ennaku amakumi ana, emisana n’ekiro, ng’omulundi guli ogwasooka. Ne ku mulundi guno Mukama yampuliriza. Mukama Katonda yali tayagala kukuzikiriza.
I stayed on the mountain, as at the first time, forty days and forty nights: and the LORD listened to me that time also, and the LORD would not destroy you.
11 Mukama n’aŋŋamba nti, “Genda okulembere abantu, bakwate olugendo lwabwe, bayingire mu nsi gye nalayirira bajjajjaabwe okugibawa, bagyefunire.”
The LORD said to me, "Arise, take your journey before the people; and they shall go in and possess the land, which I swore to their fathers to give to them."
12 Kale nno, ggwe Isirayiri, kiki Mukama Katonda wo ky’akwetaagako wabula okutya Mukama Katonda wo, okutambuliranga mu makubo ge gonna, n’okumwagalanga, n’okuweerezanga Mukama Katonda wo n’omutima gwo gwonna n’emmeeme yo yonna,
Now, Israel, what does the LORD your God require of you, but to fear the LORD your God, to walk in all his ways, and to love him, and to serve the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul,
13 n’okugonderanga amateeka ga Mukama n’ebiragiro bye, nga bwe nkukuutira leero olw’obulungi bwo?
to keep the commandments of the LORD, and his statutes, which I command you this day for your good?
14 Laba, Mukama Katonda wo ye nannyini ggulu, era n’eggulu erisinga okuba waggulu ennyo nalyo lirye, n’ensi ne byonna ebigirimu.
Look, to the LORD your God belongs heaven and the heaven of heavens, the earth, with all that is in it.
15 Kyokka era Mukama yakwana bajjajjaabo n’abaagala nnyo, ne yeerondera mmwe, bazzukulu baabwe, okubeera ku ntikko y’amawanga gonna nga bwe kiri leero.
Only the LORD had a delight in your fathers to love them, and he chose their descendants after them, even you above all peoples, as at this day.
16 Noolwekyo mukomole emitima gyammwe, era mukomye okubeera n’amawagali.
Circumcise therefore the foreskin of your heart, and be no more stiff-necked.
17 Kubanga Mukama Katonda wammwe ye Katonda wa bakatonda, era ye Mukama w’abakama, ye Katonda omukulu, nannyini buyinza era Katonda atiibwa, atalina kyekubiira, era atalya nguzi.
For the LORD your God, he is God of gods, and Lord of lords, the great God, the mighty, and the awesome, who doesn't respect persons, nor takes reward.
18 Bamulekwa abataliiko bakitaabwe, ne bannamwandu, abamalira ensonga zaabwe mu bwenkanya; era ayagala ne bannamawanga abatambuze, ng’abawa emmere n’ebyokwambala.
He does execute justice for the fatherless and widow, and loves the foreigner, in giving him food and clothing.
19 Kale nno, mwagalenga bannamawanga kubanga nammwe mwaliko bannamawanga mu nsi ey’e Misiri.
Therefore love the foreigner; for you were foreigners in the land of Egypt.
20 Otyanga Mukama Katonda wo era muweerezenga. Munywererengako, era mu linnya lye mw’onoolayiriranga.
You shall fear the LORD your God; you shall serve him; and you shall cling to him, and you shall swear by his name.
21 Oyo, lye ttendo lyo era ye Katonda wo, eyakukolera ebyamagero ebyo byonna ebikulu ggwe kennyini bye weerabirako n’amaaso go.
He is your praise, and he is your God, who has done for you these great and awesome things, which your eyes have seen.
22 Bajjajjaabo bwe baaserengeta e Misiri, bonna awamu baali bawera abantu nsanvu; kaakano Mukama Katonda wo abafudde bangi nnyo ng’emmunyeenye ez’oku ggulu.
Your fathers went down into Egypt with seventy persons; and now the LORD your God has made you as the stars of the sky for multitude.
