Deotoronomia 5
1 Ary Mosesy niantso ny Isiraely rehetra ka nanao taminy hoe: Ry Isiraely ô, mihainoa ny didy sy ny fitsipika izay lazaiko eto anatrehanareo anio, ka ianaro ireo, sy mitandrema mba hankatò azy.
Then Moses called all the Israelites together and told them: Listen, people of Israel to the rules and regulations that I'm giving you today. Learn them and make sure you follow them carefully.
2 Jehovah Andriamanitsika nanao fanekena tamintsika tany Horeba;
Remember that the Lord our God made an agreement with us at Horeb.
3 tsy tamin’ ny razantsika no nanaovan’ i Jehovah izany fanekena izany, fa tamintsika, dia isika rehetra izay samy mbola velona eto anio.
He didn't make this agreement with our fathers, but with us, all of those who are still alive today.
4 Niteny nifanatrika taminareo Jehovah tao an-tendrombohitra, tao amin’ ny afo.
The Lord talked with you person to person from the fire on the mountain.
5 Izaho nitsangana teo anelanelan’ i Jehovah sy ianareo tamin’ izany andro izany, hanambara aminareo ny tenin’ i Jehovah, fa natahotra noho ny fahitana ny afo ianareo ka tsy niakatra tao amin’ ny tendrombohitra, ka hoy Izy:
This was the time when I stood between the Lord and you to tell you what the Lord said, because you were afraid of the fire and refused to go up the mountain. He told you,
6 Izaho no Jehovah Andriamanitrao, Izay nitondra anao nivoaka avy tany amin’ ny tany Egypta, tamin’ ny trano nahandevozana.
“I am the Lord your God, who led you out of Egypt, out of the prison-house of slavery.
7 Aza manana andriamani-kafa, fa Izaho ihany.
You must not have any other gods except me.
8 Aza manao sarin-javatra voasokitra ho anao, na ny mety ho endriky ny zavatra any amin’ ny lanitra ambony, na izay etỳ amin’ ny tany ambany, na izay any amin’ ny rano ambanin’ ny tany.
You must not make for yourself any kind of idol, whether in the form of anything in the heavens above, or on the earth beneath, or in the waters below.
9 Aza miankohoka eo anatrehany, ary aza manompo azy; fa Izaho, Jehovah Andriamanitrao, dia Andriamanitra saro-piaro ka mamaly ny heloky ny ray amin’ ny zanaka hatramin’ ny zafiafy sy ny zafindohalika, dia amin’ izay mankahala Ahy,
You must not bow down before them or worship them; for I am the Lord your God and I am passionately exclusive. I lay the consequences of the sin of those who hate me on their sons, grandsons, and great-grandsons;
10 nefa kosa mamindra fo amin’ ny olona arivo mandimby, izay tia Ahy ka mitandrina ny didiko.
but I show trustworthy love to the thousands of generations who love me and keep my commandments.
11 Aza manonona foana ny anaran’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrao; fa tsy hataon’ i Jehovah ho tsy manan-tsiny izay manonona foana ny anarany.
You must not use the name of the Lord your God in a wrong way, for the Lord will not forgive anyone who uses his name in a wrong way.
12 Mitandrema ny andro Sabata hanamasima azy, araka izay nandidian’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrao anao.
Remember the Sabbath day to keep it holy, as the Lord as the Lord your God has commanded you to do.
13 Henemana no hiasanao sy hanaovanao ny raharahanao rehetra.
You have six days to work and earn your living,
14 Fa Sabatan’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrao ny andro fahafito; koa aza manao raharaha akory ianao amin’ izany, na ny zanakao-lahy, na ny zanakao-vavy, na ny ankizilahinao, na ny ankizivavinao, na ny ombinao, na ny borikinao, na ny biby fiompinao rehetra, na ny vahininao izay tafiditra eo am-bavahadinao; mba hitsaharan’ ny ankizilahinao sy ny ankizivavinao tahaka anao koa.
but the seventh day is the Sabbath to honor the Lord your God. On this day you must not do any work—not you, not your son or daughter, not your male slave or female slave or your ox or donkey or any of your livestock, and not the foreigner who is staying with you, so that your male slave and females slave can have the same rest as you.
15 Ary tsarovy fa andevo tany amin’ ny tany Egypta ianao, ka tanana mahery sy sandry nahinjitra no nitondran’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrao anao nivoaka avy tany; izany no nandidian’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrao anao hitandrina ny andro Sabata.
Remember that you were once slaves in Egypt, and that the Lord your God led you out from there with his great power and incredible strength. This is why the Lord your God has ordered you to keep the Sabbath day.
16 Manajà ny rainao sy ny reninao, araka izay nandidian’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrao anao, mba ho maro andro ianao, ary mba hahita soa any amin’ ny tany izay omen’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrao ho anao.
Honor your father and your mother, as the Lord your God has commanded you to do, so that you may live a long time and do well in the land that the Lord your God is giving you.
17 Aza mamono olona.
You must not kill people.
18 Ary aza mijangajanga.
You must not commit adultery.
19 Ary aza mangalatra.
You must not steal.
20 Ary aza mety ho vavolombelona mandainga hanameloka ny namanao.
You must not give false evidence against others.
21 Ary aza mitsiriritra ny vadin’ ny namanao; ary aza mitsiriritra ny tranon’ ny namanao, na ny taniny, na ny ankizilahiny, na ny ankizivaviny, na ny ombiny, na ny borikiny, na izay mety ho an’ ny namanao akory aza.
You must not desire to have anyone else's wife. You must not desire to have their house or field, or their male slave or female slave, or their ox or donkey, or anything that belongs to them.”
22 Ireo teny ireo no nolazain’ i Jehovah tamin’ ny feo mahery tao amin’ ny afo sy ny rahona ary ny aizim-pito, raha nivory tany an-tendrombohitra ianareo, ka dia tsy nampiany intsony; ary nosoratany tamin’ ny vato fisaka roa ireo ka natolony ahy.
In a loud voice the Lord gave these commandments to all of you, speaking from the fire, the cloud, and the deep darkness that covered the mountain. He didn't add anything else. He wrote them down on two tablets of stone and gave them to me.
23 Ary rehefa renareo ny feo avy tao amin’ ny aizina, raha nirehitra afo ny tendrombohitra, dia nanatona ahy ianareo, dia ny loham-pirenenareo rehetra sy ny loholonareo,
When you heard the voice that came from the darkness while the mountain was on fire, all your tribal leaders and elders came to me,
24 ka hoy ianareo: Indro, efa nampahitain’ i Jehovah Andriamanitsika ny voninahiny sy ny fahalehibiazany isika, ary efa rentsika ny feony avy tao amin’ ny afo; koa efa hitantsika androany fa Andriamanitra miteny amin’ ny olona, nefa velona ihany izy.
and said, “Listen, the Lord our God has revealed glory and majesty to us, and we have heard his voice that came from the fire. Today we have seen that human beings can don't die even when God speaks with them.
25 Koa ankehitriny, nahoana no ho faty izahay? fa handevona anay io afo lehibe io; raha mbola mandre ny feon’ i Jehovah Andriamanitsika indray izahay, dia ho faty.
But we could still die, couldn't we? This enormous fire is going to burn us up, and we'll die if the Lord our God continues to speak to us.
26 Fa iza moa tamin’ ny nofo rehetra no efa nandre ny feon’ Andriamanitra velona niteny tao afovoan’ ny afo, tahaka antsika, ka velona ihany?
Has anybody else ever heard the living God speak from the fire and survived, we have?
27 Manatòna ianao, ka mihainoa izay rehetra holazain’ i Jehovah Andriamanitsika; ary ianao no aoka hilaza aminay izay rehetra holazain’ i Jehovah Andriamanitsika aminao, dia hohenoinay ka harahinay izany.
You go and listen to everything the Lord our God tells you. Then you can repeat to us everything the Lord our God tells you. We promise to listen and obey.”
28 Ary Jehovah nandre ny teninareo, raha niteny tamiko ianareo, ka hoy Izy tamiko: Efa reko ny tenin’ ireo olona ireo, izay nolazainy taminao, ka tsara izay rehetra nolazainy.
The Lord heard what you told me, and he said to me, “I've heard what these people told you. All that they've said is good.
29 Enga anie ka mba hanana fo toy izany izy hatahorany Ahy sy hitandremany ny didiko rehetra mandrakariva, mba hahita soa izy sy ny taranany mandrakizay
I only wish they really did respect me and always kept my commandments so that they and their children would do well for all time.
30 Mandehana, ka lazao aminy hoe: Miverena any an-dainareo ianareo.
Go and tell them: ‘You need to return to your tents.’
31 Fa ianao kosa dia mijanòna eto anilako, ka holazaiko aminao ny lalàna rehetra sy ny didy ary ny fitsipika, izay hampianarinao azy mba harahiny any amin’ ny tany izay omeko azy ho lovany.
But you are to stay here with me so that I can give you all the commandments and rules and regulations you are to teach them to follow in the country that I am giving them to take over and own.”
32 Koa tandremo mba hanao araka izay efa nandidian’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrareo anareo; aza mivily, na ho amin’ ny ankavanana, na ho amin’ ny ankavia;
So make sure you do what the Lord your God has ordered you to do—don't go astray in any direction.
33 fa ny lalana rehetra izay nandidian’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrareo anareo no halehanareo, mba ho velona ianareo ka hahita soa, ary ho maro andro any amin’ ny tany izay holovanareo.
Follow all the ways the Lord your God has shown you, so that you do well and live long lives in the country that you will occupy.
