Ekyamateeka Olwokubiri 5
1 Awo Musa n’akuŋŋaanya Isirayiri yenna, n’abagamba nti, Wulira, Ayi Isirayiri, amateeka n’ebiragiro bye nkutegeeza ng’owulira ku lunaku lwa leero. Mubiyige era mubigobererenga n’obwegendereza.
And Moses called all Israel, and said unto them, Hear, O Israel, the statutes and judgments which I speak in your ears this day, that all of you may learn them, and keep, and do them.
2 Mukama Katonda waffe yakola naffe endagaano nga tuli e Kolebu.
The LORD our God made a covenant with us in Horeb.
3 Endagaano eyo Mukama Katonda teyagikola ne bazadde baffe, naye yagikola naffe abali wano era abalamu ku lunaku lwa leero.
The LORD made not this covenant with our fathers, but with us, even us, who are all of us here alive this day.
4 Mukama Katonda yayogera nammwe nga mwolekaganye naye, ye ng’asinziira mu muliro ku lusozi olunene.
The LORD talked with you face to face in the mount out of the midst of the fire,
5 Mu kaseera ako nze nnali nnyimiridde wakati wa Mukama nammwe okubatuusaako ekigambo kya Mukama Katonda, kubanga mmwe mwali mutidde omuliro, noolwekyo ne mutalinnya ku lusozi olunene. N’abagamba nti:
(I stood between the LORD and you at that time, to show you the word of the LORD: for all of you were afraid by reason of the fire, and went not up into the mount; ) saying,
6 “Nze Mukama Katonda wo, eyakuggya mu Misiri, mu nsi gye mwafuulibwa abaddu.
I am the LORD your God, which brought you out of the land of Egypt, from the house of bondage.
7 “Tobeeranga na bakatonda balala wabula Nze nzekka.
You shall have no other gods before me.
8 Teweekoleranga kintu kyonna ekyole ekifaanana n’ekintu kyonna ekiri waggulu mu ggulu, oba wansi ku nsi, oba ekiri mu mazzi agali wansi w’ensi.
You shall not make you any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the waters beneath the earth:
9 Ebyo tobivuunamiranga so tobisinzanga. Kubanga Nze Mukama Katonda wo ndi Katonda wa buggya; mbonereza abaana olw’ebibi bya bakitaabwe n’ebya bajjajjaabwe okutuusa ku mulembe ogwokusatu n’ogwokuna ogw’abo abankyawa.
You shall not bow down yourself unto them, nor serve them: for I the LORD your God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me,
10 Naye abo enkumi n’enkumi abanjagala era abakwata amateeka gange, mbalaga okwagala kwange okutaggwaawo.
And showing mercy unto thousands of them that love me and keep my commandments.
11 Tokozesanga linnya lya Mukama Katonda wo ng’olayira ebitaliimu nsa: kubanga Mukama talirema kumusalira musango ne gumusinga omuntu oyo alayirira obwereere erinnya lye.
You shall not take the name of the LORD your God in vain: for the LORD will not hold him guiltless that takes his name in vain.
12 Olunaku lwa Ssabbiiti lujjukirenga era olutukuzenga, nga Mukama Katonda wo bwe yakulagira.
Keep the sabbath day to sanctify it, as the LORD your God has commanded you.
13 Kolanga emirimu gyo, ofaabiine mu nnaku omukaaga,
Six days you shall labour, and do all your work:
14 naye olunaku olw’omusanvu ye Ssabbiiti ya Mukama Katonda wo. Ku lunaku olwo tokolerangako mulimu gwonna; ggwe, wadde mutabani wo, wadde muwala wo, wadde omuweereza wo omusajja, oba omuweereza wo omukazi, oba ente yo eya sseddume, oba endogoyi yo, oba ku nte zo endala zonna, oba omugenyi ali omumwo, abaweereza bo abasajja, n’abaweereza bo abakazi, nabo balyoke bawummuleko nga ggwe.
But the seventh day is the sabbath of the LORD your God: in it you shall not do any work, you, nor your son, nor your daughter, nor your manservant, nor your maidservant, nor your ox, nor your ass, nor any of your cattle, nor your stranger that is within your gates; that your manservant and your maidservant may rest as well as you.
15 Ojjukiranga nga wali muweereza mu nsi ey’e Misiri, Mukama Katonda wo n’akuggyayo n’omukono gwe omuwanvu era ogw’amaanyi. Mukama Katonda wo kyeyava akulagira okuumenga olunaku olwa Ssabbiiti.
And remember that you were a servant in the land of Egypt, and that the LORD your God brought you out thence through a mighty hand and by a stretched out arm: therefore the LORD your God commanded you to keep the sabbath day.
16 Kitaawo ne nnyoko obassangamu ekitiibwa, nga Mukama Katonda wo bwe yakulagira, olyoke owangaale, era obeerenga n’emirembe, mu nsi Mukama Katonda wo gy’akuwa.
Honour your father and your mother, as the LORD your God has commanded you; that your days may be prolonged, and that it may go well with you, in the land which the LORD your God gives you.
17 Tottanga.
You shall not kill.
18 Toyendanga.
Neither shall you commit adultery.
19 Tobbanga.
Neither shall you steal.
20 Towaayirizanga muntu munno.
Neither shall you bear false witness against your neighbour.
21 Teweegombanga mukyala wa muntu munno. So teweegombanga nnyumba ya muntu munno, newaakubadde ennimiro ye, newaakubadde omuweereza we omusajja, newaakubadde omuweereza we omukazi, wadde ente ye, oba endogoyi ye, oba ekintu kyonna ekya muntu munno.”
Neither shall you desire your neighbour's wife, neither shall you covet your neighbour's house, his field, or his manservant, or his maidservant, his ox, or his ass, or any thing that is your neighbour's.
22 Ago ge mateeka Mukama ge yalangirira eri ekibiina kyammwe kyonna, nga muli wansi w’olusozi Sinaayi, ng’ayogera n’eddoboozi ery’omwanguka eryava mu muliro, n’ekire, n’ekizikiza ekikutte ennyo; teyayongerako birala. Bw’atyo n’agawandiika ku bipande bibiri eby’amayinja, n’abinkwasa.
These words the LORD spoke unto all your assembly in the mount out of the midst of the fire, of the cloud, and of the thick darkness, with a great voice: and he added no more. And he wrote them in two tables of stone, and delivered them unto me.
23 Bwe mwawulira eddoboozi nga liva mu kizikiza, ate ng’olusozi lwaka omuliro, ne musembera gye ndi, n’abakulembeze bonna ab’ebika byammwe, n’abakulu bammwe bonna.
And it came to pass, when all of you heard the voice out of the midst of the darkness, (for the mountain did burn with fire, ) that all of you came near unto me, even all the heads of your tribes, and your elders;
24 Ne mugamba nti, “Laba, Mukama Katonda waffe atulaze ekitiibwa kye n’obukulu bwe, era n’eddoboozi lye ne tuliwulira nga lifuluma wakati mu muliro.
And all of you said, Behold, the LORD our God has showed us his glory and his greatness, and we have heard his voice out of the midst of the fire: we have seen this day that God does talk with man, and he lives.
25 Kale, kaakano tufiira ki? Kubanga omuliro guno omungi bwe guti gujja kutusaanyaawo, tufe tuggweewo, singa twongera okuwulira eddoboozi lya Mukama Katonda waffe.
Now therefore why should we die? for this great fire will consume us: if we hear the voice of the LORD our God any more, then we shall die.
26 Kubanga, ani mu bantu omuntu eyali awulidde ku ddoboozi lya Katonda omulamu ng’ayogerera wakati mu muliro, nga ffe bwe tuliwulidde, n’asigala ng’akyali mulamu?
For who is there of all flesh, that has heard the voice of the living God speaking out of the midst of the fire, as we have, and lived?
27 Ggwe, musemberere, owulirize bulungi byonna Mukama Katonda waffe by’anaayogera. Olyoke otubuulire ebyo byonna Mukama Katonda waffe by’anaakugamba. Tujja kubiwuliriza era tubigondere.”
Go you near, and hear all that the LORD our God shall say: and speak you unto us all that the LORD our God shall speak unto you; and we will hear it, and do it.
28 Mukama yawulira ebigambo byammwe, bwe mwayogera nange, Mukama Katonda n’aŋŋamba nti, “Ebigambo abantu abo bye bakugambye mbiwulidde. Byonna bye boogedde bibadde birungi.
And the LORD heard the voice of your words, when all of you spoke unto me; and the LORD said unto me, I have heard the voice of the words of this people, which they have spoken unto you: they have well said all that they have spoken.
29 Singa nno bulijjo emitima gyabwe gibeera bwe gityo; ne bantya, era ne bagonderanga amateeka gange gonna, ne balyoka balaba ebirungi awamu n’abaana baabwe emirembe gyonna!
O that there were such an heart in them, that they would fear me, and keep all my commandments always, that it might be well with them, and with their children for ever!
30 Genda obagambe baddeyo mu weema zaabwe.
Go say to them, Get you into your tents again.
31 Naye ggwe sigala wano nange, ndyoke nkutegeeze amateeka gonna n’ebiragiro, by’ojja okubayigiriza babikolerengako nga bali mu nsi gye mbawa okubeera obutaka bwabwe obw’enkalakkalira.
But as for you, stand you here by me, and I will speak unto you all the commandments, and the statutes, and the judgments, which you shall teach them, that they may do them in the land which I give them to possess it.
32 “Noolwekyo mwegenderezenga nnyo, mukolenga nga Mukama Katonda wammwe bw’abalagidde; mulemenga okukyama okulaga ku mukono ogwa ddyo oba ogwa kkono.
All of you shall observe to do therefore as the LORD your God has commanded you: all of you shall not turn aside to the right hand or to the left.
33 Mutambulirenga mu kkubo Mukama Katonda wammwe ly’abalagidde, mulyoke mubenga balamu, mugaggawale, era muwangaalenga nga muli mu nsi ejja okubeera obutaka bwammwe obw’enkalakkalira.”
All of you shall walk in all the ways which the LORD your God has commanded you, that all of you may live, and that it may be well with you, and that all of you may prolong your days in the land which all of you shall possess.
