“Ungahambi ukhuluma izindaba zamanga. Ungahlanganyeli lomuntu omubi ngoba ngufakazi olomona.
2 “Tokolagananga na kibiina ky’omanyi nga bye kiriko bikyamu. Bw’obanga owa obujulirwa mu musango, tokkirizanga kusikibwa kibiina ne kikuweesa obujulizi obw’obulimba nga weekubira ku ludda lwe kiriko;
Ungenzi okubi ulandela inengi labantu. Nxa ufakaza emthethwandaba, ungaphenduleli iqiniso ngokuvumelana labanengi,

njalo ungazweli umuntu ecaleni ngoba engumyanga.
4 “Bw’osanganga ente y’omulabe wo, oba endogoyi ye, ng’ebuzze ogimuddizangayo eka.
Ungahlangana lenkomo kumbe ubabhemi wesitha sakho elahlekile, mnqande umbuyisele kumnikazi.
5 Bw’olabanga endogoyi y’omuntu atakwagala, ng’omugugu gugisudde wansi, togirekanga, naye omuyambangako okugiyimusa.
Nxa ufica ubabhemi womuntu okuzondayo ewiswe ngumthwalo, ungamtshiyi, umncedise umvuse.
6 “Tolemanga kusalirawo muntu nsonga ze mu bwenkanya, olwokubanga mwavu.
Ahlulela kuhle abayanga bakini emacaleni.
7 Teweeyingizanga mu nsonga za bulimba, era tottanga muntu atalina kibi oba atazzizza musango, kubanga aliko omusango sigenda kumwejjeereza.
Ungabungeni ubufakazi bamanga, njalo ungabulali muntu ongelacala loba oqotho ngoba kangiyi kumyekela olecala.
8 “Tolyanga nguzi, kubanga enguzi eziba omuntu amaaso n’ekyamya n’abatuukirivu.
Lingavumi ukufunjathiswa ngoba ukufunjathiswa kufiphaza ababonayo besebeguqula amazwi omuntu omsulwa.
9 “Temuwalagganyanga munnaggwanga, kubanga mmwe bennyini mumanyi nga bwe kiri okuba bannaggwanga, kubanga mwali bannaggwanga mu nsi y’e Misiri.
Ungancindezeli owezizweni, lina ngokwenu liyakwazi ukuthi kunjani ukuba ngabezizweni, njengoba lalingabezizweni eGibhithe.”
10 “Mu myaka omukaaga osigirangamu emmere yo mu nnimiro zo era n’ogikungula;
“Okweminyaka eyisithupha lizalima amasimu enu livune amabele,
11 naye mu mwaka ogw’omusanvu ettaka olirekanga ne liwummula, abaavu mu mmwe basobolenga okulya ku mmere okuva mu bimererezi; eneefikkangawo ebisolo by’omu nsiko binaagiryanga. Era bw’otyo bw’onookolanga n’ennimiro zo ez’emizabbibu n’ez’emizeeyituuni.
kodwa kuzakuthi ngomnyaka wesikhombisa liyekele amasimu enu alaluke engalinywanga. Ngakho abangabayanga phakathi kwenu bazazuza ukudla kuwo, kuthi lezinyamazana zeganga zidle okuseleyo. Lizakwenza njalo okufananayo ngezivini zenu kanye lezihlahla zenu zama-oliva.
12 “Mu nnaku omukaaga mw’okoleranga emirimu gyo, naye ku lunaku olw’omusanvu tokolanga, ente yo n’endogoyi yo ziryoke zisobole okuwummulako; ne mutabani w’omuweereza wo, ne munnaggwanga ali mu maka go bawummuleko baddemu endasi.
Uzakwenza imisebenzi yakho okwensuku eziyisithupha, kodwa ngosuku lwesikhombisa ungasebenzi, ukuze inkabi yakho lobabhemi wakho kuphumule, kuthi isigqili esazalelwa endlini yakho kanye lowezizweni baphumule.
13 “Weegenderezanga n’okolanga byonna bye nkulagidde. Bakatonda abalala toboogerangako, era amannya gaabwe tegayitanga mu kamwa ko.
Qaphelisisani lenze konke engilitshela khona. Lingamemezi amabizo abanye onkulunkulu; kawangezwakali ephuma ezindebeni zenu.”
14 “Ononkoleranga embaga emirundi esatu buli mwaka.
“Kathathu ngomnyaka kufanele lingithakazelele umkhosi.
15 “Onookolanga Embaga ey’Emigaati Egitali Mizimbulukuse. Onoolyanga omugaati ogutaliimu kizimbulukusa okumala ennaku musanvu, nga bwe nakulagira. Kino okikolanga mu kiseera ekyategekebwa, mu mwezi gwa Abibu, kubanga mu mwezi ogwo mwe waviira mu nsi y’e Misiri. “Tewabangawo ajja gye ndi engalo ensa.
Lizathakazelela uMkhosi weSinkwa esingelaMvubelo; okwensuku eziyisikhombisa dlanini isinkwa esingelamvubelo, njengokulilaya kwami. Kwenzeni lokhu ngesikhathi esimisiweyo senyanga ka-Avivi, ngoba ngaleyonyanga yikho elaphuma khona eGibhithe. Kakungabi lamuntu ozakuma phambi kwami engaphathanga lutho.
16 “Onookolanga Embaga ey’Amakungula ey’ebibala ebibereberye eby’ebirime bye wasiga mu nnimiro yo. “Onookolanga Embaga ey’Amayingiza buli nkomerero ya mwaka, bw’onookuŋŋaanyanga ebibala by’omu nnimiro, n’obiyingiza.
Lithakazelele uMkhosi wokuVuna lokolibo kwenu ezilimweni zenu zemasimini. Lithakazelele uMkhosi wokuButhelela nxa selibutha izilimo zenu emasimini.
17 “Abasajja bonna banajjanga awali Mukama Katonda emirundi egyo esatu buli mwaka.
Kathathu ngomnyaka amadoda wonke kufanele ayebonakala phambi kukaThixo Wobukhosi.
18 “Temuwangayo kintu kyonna gye ndi ekirimu ekizimbulukusa nga mundeetedde ssaddaaka erimu omusaayi; n’amasavu aga ssaddaaka yange tegasulangawo kutuusa nkeera.
Linganikeli igazi lomhlatshelo kimi ndawonye laloba yini elemvubelo. Amahwahwa eminikelo yemikhosi yami akumelanga agcinwe kuze kuse.
19 “Ebibala ebisinga obulungi mu ebyo ebisoose okuva mu ttaka lyo obitwalanga mu nnyumba ya Mukama Katonda wo. Tofumbanga akaana k’embuzi mu mata ga nnyina waako.
Lethani okolibo kwenu okuhle kakhulu endlini kaThixo uNkulunkulu wenu. Lingapheki izinyane lembuzi ngochago lukanina.”
20 “Laba, ntuma malayika akukulembere, akutuuse bulungi mu kifo kye nteeseteese.
“Khangelani, sengithumela ingilosi phambi kwenu ukuze ilivikele endleleni yenu njalo ize ilifikise endaweni engililungisele yona.
21 Omuwulirizanga, era ogonderanga by’agamba. Tomujeemeranga; bw’olijeema tagenda kukusonyiwa, kubanga aliba akola mu Linnya lyange.
Liyinanzelele ingilosi yami njalo lilalele ekutshoyo. Lingayihlamukeli ngoba kayizukulithethelela nxa lingayihlamukela, njengoba iBizo lami likuyo.
22 Naye bw’onoowulirizanga eddoboozi lye, n’okola nga bwe ŋŋamba, kale nnaakyawanga abakukyawa, n’abalabe bo banaabanga balabe bange.
Nxa lingalalelisisa ekutshoyo njalo lenze konke engikutshoyo, ngizakuba yisitha sezitha zenu njalo ngizamelana lalabo abamisana lani.
23 Malayika wange alikwesooka mu maaso akukulemberenga akutuuse mu nsi y’Abamoli, ne mu y’Abakiiti, ne mu y’Abaperezi, ne mu y’Abakanani, ne mu y’Abakiivi, ne mu y’Abayebusi, nange ndibazikiririza ddala.
Ingilosi yami izahamba phambi kwenu ize ilingenise elizweni lama-Amori, lamaHithi, lamaPherizi, lamaKhenani lamaHivi kanye lamaJebusi njalo ngizababhubhisa.
24 Tovuunamiranga bakatonda baabwe, so tobaweerezanga, era tokwatanga mpisa zaabwe, wabula obabetetaranga ddala, n’omenyaamenya n’empagi zaabwe.
Lingabakhothameli onkulunkulu babo, lingabakhonzi njalo lingalandeli imikhuba yabo. Kufanele libhidlize onkulunkulu babo njalo lidilize amatshe abo abawakhonzayo.
25 Oweerezanga Mukama Katonda wo yekka, emmere yo n’amazzi go ndyoke mbiwe omukisa. Ndiggyawo endwadde mu mmwe;
Mkhonzeni uThixo uNkulunkulu wenu, kuzakuthi isibusiso sakhe sibe phezu kokudla laphezu kwamanzi enu. Ngizasusa imikhuhlane phakathi kwenu,
26 tewaabengawo mugumba wadde avaamu olubuto. Ennaku z’obulamu bwo zonna nnaazituukirizanga.
njalo kakho ozaswela loba abe yinyumba ezweni lenu. Ngizaphelelisa insuku zenu.
27 “Nnaasindikanga ekikangabwa mu mawanga agaagala okukwolekera, ne ntabulatabula abo bonna abanaakwegezangamu, era abalabe bo nnaabafuumuulanga emisinde.
Ngizathumela uchuku lwami phambi kwenu njalo ngisanganise zonke izizwe elizahlangana lazo. Ngizakwenza zonke izitha zenu zifulathele zilibalekele.
28 Ndisindika ennumba ne zikukulembera, ne zigoba Abakiivi, n’Abakanani, n’Abakiiti ne bakuviira mu kkubo lyo.
Ngizathumela olonyovu phambi kwenu ukuze basuse amaHivi, amaKhenani kanye lamaHithi endleleni yenu.
29 Naye mu nsi omwo siribagobamu mu mwaka gumu, ebikande bireme kusukkirira, n’ensolo ez’omu nsiko ne zaala ne zibayitirira obungi.
Kodwa angiyikubasusa ngomnyaka munye, ngoba ilizwe lingasala lingasela muntu besekusithi izinyamazana zeganga zande zilikhulele.
30 Nzijanga kubagobamu mpola mpola, okutuusa nga mwaze ne mulyoka mulya ensi eyo.
Ngizabasusa kancanekancane phambi kwenu, lani lize lande lenelise ukuthatha ilizwe.
31 “Ndisala ensalo zammwe okuva ku Nnyanja Emyufu okutuuka ku Nnyanja y’Abafirisuuti, n’okuva ku ddungu okutuuka ku Mugga Fulaati. Abantu b’omu nsi omwo ndibabawa, ne mubagobamu.
Ngizabeka imingcele kusukela oLwandle oluBomvu kusiya oLwandle lwamaFilistiya, njalo kusuka enkangala kusiya emfuleni uYufrathe. Ngakho abantu abahlala kulelolizwe ngizabanikela ezandleni zenu ukuze libadudule.
32 Temukolanga nabo ndagaano, wadde ne bakatonda baabwe.
Lingenzi isivumelwano labo loba labonkulunkulu babo.
33 Temubakkirizanga kubeera mu nsi yammwe, tebalwa kubanyoomesa biragiro byange; kubanga singa muweereza bakatonda baabwe muliba mugudde mu mutego.”
Kabangahlali lani ezweni lenu, funa balenze lingonele, ngoba ukukhonza kwabo onkulunkulu babo kuzakuba yisifu kini.”
