Ekyamateeka Olwokubiri 10
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 hath Jehovah said unto me, Grave for thee two tables of stone, like the first, and come up unto Me, into the mount, and thou hast made for thee an ark of wood,
2 Nzija kuwandiika ku bipande ebyo ebigambo ebyali ku bipande ebyasooka, bye wayasa; olyoke obiteeke mu Ssanduuko.”
and I write on the tables the words which were on the first tables, which thou hast broken, and thou hast placed 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.
and I make an ark of shittim wood, and grave two tables of stone like the first, and go up to the mount, and the two tables 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.
'And He writeth on the tables, according to the first writing, the Ten Matters, which Jehovah hath spoken unto you in the mount, out of the midst of the fire, in the day of the assembly, and Jehovah giveth them unto 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.
and I turn and come down from the mount, and put the tables in the ark which I had made, and they are there, as Jehovah 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.
'And the sons of Israel have journeyed from Beeroth of the sons of Jaakan to Mosera, there Aaron died, and he is buried there, and Eleazar his son doth act as priest in his stead;
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.
thence they journeyed 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 hath Jehovah separated the tribe of Levi, to bear the ark of the covenant of Jehovah, to stand before Jehovah, to serve Him, and to bless in His name, unto 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 there hath not been to Levi a portion and inheritance with his brethren; Jehovah Himself [is] his inheritance, as Jehovah thy God hath spoken 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.
'And I — I have stood in the mount, as the former days, forty days and forty nights, and Jehovah hearkeneth unto me also at that time; Jehovah hath not willed to destroy thee.
11 Mukama n’aŋŋamba nti, “Genda okulembere abantu, bakwate olugendo lwabwe, bayingire mu nsi gye nalayirira bajjajjaabwe okugibawa, bagyefunire.”
'And Jehovah saith unto me, Rise, go to journey before the people, and they go in and possess the land which I have sworn 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,
'And now, Israel, what is Jehovah thy God asking from thee, except to fear Jehovah thy God, to walk in all His ways, and to love Him, and to serve Jehovah thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul,
13 n’okugonderanga amateeka ga Mukama n’ebiragiro bye, nga bwe nkukuutira leero olw’obulungi bwo?
to keep the commands of Jehovah, and His statutes which I am commanding thee to-day, for good to thee?
14 Laba, Mukama Katonda wo ye nannyini ggulu, era n’eggulu erisinga okuba waggulu ennyo nalyo lirye, n’ensi ne byonna ebigirimu.
'Lo, to Jehovah thy God [are] the heavens and the heavens of the heavens, the earth and 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 in thy fathers hath Jehovah delighted — to love them, and He doth fix on their seed after them — on you, out of all the peoples as [at] this day;
16 Noolwekyo mukomole emitima gyammwe, era mukomye okubeera n’amawagali.
and ye have circumcised the foreskin of your heart, and your neck ye do not harden any more;
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 Jehovah your God — He [is] God of the gods, and Lord of the lords; God, the great, the mighty, and the fearful; who accepteth not persons, nor taketh a bribe;
18 Bamulekwa abataliiko bakitaabwe, ne bannamwandu, abamalira ensonga zaabwe mu bwenkanya; era ayagala ne bannamawanga abatambuze, ng’abawa emmere n’ebyokwambala.
He is doing the judgment of fatherless and widow, and loving the sojourner, to give to him bread and raiment.
19 Kale nno, mwagalenga bannamawanga kubanga nammwe mwaliko bannamawanga mu nsi ey’e Misiri.
'And ye have loved the sojourner, for sojourners ye were in the land of Egypt.
20 Otyanga Mukama Katonda wo era muweerezenga. Munywererengako, era mu linnya lye mw’onoolayiriranga.
'Jehovah thy God thou dost fear, Him thou dost serve, and to Him thou dost cleave, and by His name thou dost swear.
21 Oyo, lye ttendo lyo era ye Katonda wo, eyakukolera ebyamagero ebyo byonna ebikulu ggwe kennyini bye weerabirako n’amaaso go.
He [is] thy praise, and He [is] thy God, who hath done with thee these great and fearful [things] which thine 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.
with seventy persons did thy fathers go down to Egypt, and now hath Jehovah thy God made thee as stars of the heavens for multitude.
