UDutheronomi 15
1 “Ekupheleni kweminyaka eyisikhombisa kumele lesule izikwelede.
“ʻI he ngataʻanga ʻo hono fitu ʻoe taʻu kotoa pē ke ke fai ʻae vete ange.
2 Nanso indlela elizakuphatha ngayo: Wonke umuntu owake waboleka omunye wakibo wako-Israyeli impahla yakhe kumele esule lesosikwelede. Akusafanelanga ukuthi adinge ukuhlawulwa ngomunye wakhe wako-Israyeli loba umfowabo, ngoba isikhathi sikaThixo sokwesula izikwelede sesimenyezelwe.
Pea ko hono anga ʻoe vete ange eni: Ko ia kotoa pē naʻe nō atu ha meʻa ki hono kaungāʻapi ke vete ʻe ia ia; ʻoua naʻa ʻeke ia ʻi hono kaungāʻapi, pe ki hono tokoua; koeʻuhi ʻoku ui ia ko e vete ange kia Sihova.
3 Lilakho ukuthi lihlawulwe ngabezizweni, kodwa kumele lesule isikwelede umfowenu ayabe elaso kini.
ʻE ngofua ʻa hoʻo ʻeke ia ki he muli ka ko ia ʻoku ʻaʻau mo ho tokoua ʻe tukuange ia ʻe ho nima;
4 Kodwa akungabi lomuntu oswelayo phakathi kwenu, ngoba elizweni lelo uThixo uNkulunkulu wenu alinika lona ukuze libe yilifa lenu, uzalibusisa kakhulu,
Koeʻuhi ke ʻoua naʻa ai ha kau masiva ʻiate kimoutolu; koeʻuhi ʻe tāpuaki lahi koe ʻe Sihova ʻi he fonua ʻaia ʻoku foaki ʻe Sihova ko ho ʻOtua ke ke maʻu ko e tofiʻa:
5 nxa lizalalela uThixo uNkulunkulu wenu linanzelele njalo ukuthi liyayilandela yonke imilayo yakhe engilethulela yona lamuhla.
ʻO kapau te ke fanongo lelei ki he leʻo ʻo Sihova ko ho ʻOtua, ke tokanga ʻo fai ʻae ngaahi fekau ni kotoa pē ʻaia ʻoku ou fekau kiate koe he ʻaho ni.
6 Kungenxa yalokho uThixo uNkulunkulu wenu azalibusisa njengokulithembisa kwakhe, njalo lizakweboleka izizwe ezinengi kodwa lina aliyikweboleka lutho kuzo. Lizabusa phezu kwezizwe ezinengi kodwa lina akulasizwe esizalibusa.
He ʻoku tāpuakiʻi koe ʻe Sihova ko ho ʻOtua, ʻo hangē ko ʻene talaʻofa kiate koe: pea te ke nō atu ki he ngaahi puleʻanga lahi, ka ʻe ʻikai te ke nō mai; pea te ke pule koe ki he ngaahi puleʻanga lahi, ka ʻe ʻikai tenau pule kiate koe.
7 Nxa ekhona ongumyanga phakathi kwabafowenu emadolobheni la uThixo uNkulunkulu wenu alinika wona lasemazweni eliwaphiweyo, lingabi lezinhliziyo ezilukhuni loba ukuba ngabancitshanayo kumfowenu ongumyanga.
“Kapau ʻe ʻiate kimoutolu ha tangata masiva ʻi ho kāinga ʻi he ngaahi matanikolo ʻo ho fonua ʻaia ʻoku foaki ʻe Sihova ko ho ʻOtua kiate koe, ʻoua naʻa ke fakafefeka ho loto, pe tāpuni ho nima ki ho tokoua masiva:
8 Kuhle ukuthi libe ngabaphanayo limeboleke ngokukhululeka loba yini ayiswelayo.
Ka te ke mafola ke lahi ho nima kiate ia, pea ke nō atu moʻoni kiate ia ke tatau mo ʻene masiva, ʻaia ʻoku ne masiva ai.
9 Limukani lingagcini umnakano omubi othi: ‘Umnyaka wesikhombisa, umnyaka wokwesulwa kwezikwelede, ususondele,’ ukuze lingabi lomoya omubi ngomfowenu oswelayo lingabe lisamnika lutho. Kungenzeka acele kuThixo ukuba alihlanekele, libe selifunyanwa lilesono.
Vakai telia naʻa ai ha mahalo ʻi ho loto kovi, ʻo pehē, ʻOku ofi ʻa hono fitu ʻoe taʻu, ko e taʻu ʻoe vete ange: pea kovi ai ho mata ki ho tokoua masiva, pea ʻoku ʻikai te ke tuku ha meʻa kiate ia; pea tangi lāunga ai ia kia Sihova ʻiate koe, pea hoko ia ko e angahala kiate koe.
10 Mupheni okunengi njalo lokhu likwenze ngezinhliziyo ezingelamona; kanti-ke ngenxa yalokho uThixo uNkulunkulu wenu uzalibusisa kuyo yonke imisebenzi yenu lakukho konke elibeka izandla zenu kukho.
Ko e moʻoni te ke foaki kiate ia, pea ʻoua naʻa mamahi ho loto ʻi hoʻo foaki kiate ia: he koeʻuhi ko e meʻa ni ʻe tāpuaki ai koe ʻe Sihova ko ho ʻOtua ʻi hoʻo ngaahi ngāue kotoa pē, pea ʻi he meʻa kotoa pē ʻoku mafao atu ho nima ki ai.
11 Kuzahlala kulokhu kulabantu abangabayanga elizweni. Ngakho ngiyalilaya ukuba phanini ngezandla ezivulekileyo kubafowenu kanye lakubo bonke abangabayanga labaswelayo elizweni lenu.”
Koeʻuhi ʻe ʻikai ʻaupito ngata ʻae masiva mei ho fonua: ko ia ʻoku ou fekauʻi koe, ʻo pehē, Ke ke mafola ho nima ʻo lahi ki ho tokoua, ki he masiva, mo ia ʻoku tuʻutāmaki, ʻi ho fonua.
12 “Nxa omunye wenu ongumHebheru, owesilisa loba owesifazane, ezithengisile kini, angasebenza iminyaka eyisithupha, ngomnyaka wesikhombisa kumele limkhulule azihambele.
“Pea kapau kuo fakatau kiate koe ho tokoua, ko e tangata Hepelū, pe ko e fefine Hepelū, ʻo ne tauhi koe ʻi he taʻu ʻe ono; ke ke toki tukuange ia ke ʻataʻatā meiate koe ʻi hono fitu ʻoe taʻu.
13 Mhla limkhulula lingamyekeli ehamba eze engaphethe lutho.
Pea ʻoka ke ka fekau ia ke ʻalu ʻo ʻataʻatā meiate koe, ʻoua naʻa ke tuku ia ke ʻalu masiva;
14 Mnikeni emihlambini yenu ngomoya wokuphana, lasemabeleni asebhuliwe kanye lewayini eselihluziwe. Mnikeni njengokubusiswa kwenu nguThixo uNkulunkulu wenu.
Ka te ke tuku ʻae meʻa lahi kiate ia mei hoʻo fanga manu, pea mei hoʻo hahaʻanga, pea mei hoʻo tataʻoʻanga uaine: ʻi he meʻa ʻaia kuo tāpuakiʻi ai koe ʻe Sihova ko ho ʻOtua te ke ʻatu kiate ia.
15 Khumbulani ukuthi laliyizigqili eGibhithe uThixo uNkulunkulu wenu walikhulula. Yikho ngilinika umlayo lo lamuhla.
Pea ke manatu ko e tangata pōpula koe ʻi he fonua ko ʻIsipite, pea naʻe huhuʻi koe ʻe Sihova ko ho ʻOtua: ko ia ʻoku ou fekau ai ʻae meʻa ni kiate koe he ʻaho ni.
16 Kodwa nxa isisebenzi senu singathi kini, ‘Angifuni ukusuka lapha,’ ngenxa yokuthi siyalithanda lina labendlu yenu njalo sihlezi kuhle lani,
Pea ʻe pehē, kapau ʻe pehē ʻe ia kiate koe, ʻE ʻikai te u ʻalu ʻiate koe; ko e meʻa ʻi heʻene ʻofa kiate koe mo ho fale, pea ko e meʻa ʻi heʻene lelei ʻiate koe;
17 thathani usungulo libhobozele indlebe yaso emnyango, sihle sibe yisisebenzi senu kokuphela. Lokhu likwenze lasesigqilini sesifazane.
Te ke toki toʻo mai ha vili, pea tui ʻaki ia hono telinga [ke maʻu ki ]he matapā, pea ʻe hoko ia ko hoʻo tamaioʻeiki ʻo taʻengata. Pea ke fai pehē foki ki hoʻo kaunanga.
18 Lingakuthathi njengomthwalo onzima ukukhulula izisebenzi zenu, ngoba umsebenzi esiyabe sikwenzele wona eminyakeni eyisithupha uyalingana lomsebenzi ophindwe kabili owenziwa ngoqhatshiweyo. Ngakho uThixo uNkulunkulu wenu uzalibusisa kukho konke elikwenzayo.”
ʻOua naʻa matamata faingataʻa kiate koe, ʻoka ke ka tukuange ia ke ʻalu ʻo ʻataʻatā meiate koe; he naʻe tatau ia kiate koe mo e tamaioʻeiki ʻe toko ua ʻoku ngāue ki he totongi, ʻi heʻene tauhi koe ʻi he taʻu ʻe ono: pea ʻe tāpuaki koe ʻe Sihova ko ho ʻOtua ʻi he meʻa kotoa pē ʻoku ke fai.
19 “Yehlukaniselani uThixo uNkulunkulu wenu amazibulo wonke amaduna emihlambini yenu kanye leyezimvu. Lingasebenzisi loba yiliphi izibulo emhlambini loba owezimvu njalo lingagundi uboya bamazibulo ezimvu zenu.
“Ko e ʻuluaki fānau tangata kotoa pē ʻoku tupu ʻi hoʻo fanga manu lalahi mo hoʻo fanga manu siʻi ke ke fakatapui kia Sihova ko ho ʻOtua: ʻoua naʻa ke fai ha ngāue ʻe taha ʻaki ʻae ʻuluaki ʻo hoʻo fanga pulu, pea ʻoua naʻa kosi ʻae ʻuluaki fānau ʻa hoʻo sipi.
20 Ngayo yonke iminyaka lina kanye labendlu yenu lizawadla phambi kukaThixo uNkulunkulu wenu endaweni azayikhetha yena.
Ka ke kai ia, ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova ko ho ʻOtua, ʻe koe mo ho fale kotoa, ʻi he taʻu tukufakaholo kotoa pē, ʻi he potu ʻaia ʻe fili ʻe Sihova.
21 Nxa inyamazana ilesici, iqhula loba iyisiphofu, loba ilokunye okusolekayo, linganikeli ngayo kuThixo uNkulunkulu wenu.
Pea kapau ʻoku ai hano mele, kapau ʻoku ketu, pe kui, pe[ʻi ai ]ha lavea kovi, ʻoua naʻa ke feilaulau ʻaki ia kia Sihova ko ho ʻOtua.
22 Leyo lizayidlela emadolobheni enu. Bonke abahlanzekileyo labangahlanzekanga ngokomkhuba balakho ukuyidla, kungani badla ithaka lembabala.
Ke ke kai ia ʻi ho lotoʻā: ʻe fakatou kai ʻi ai ʻae taʻemaʻa mo e maʻa, ʻo hangē ko e ʻanitelope, mo e haʻate.
23 Kodwa lingadli igazi lazo, lichitheleni emhlabathini kungathi lichitha amanzi.”
Kaeʻoua naʻa ke kai ʻa hono toto ka ke lilingi ia ki he kelekele ʻo hangē ko e vai.
