Lea ki he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, ʻo pehē kiate kinautolu, “Ko au ko Sihova ko homou ʻOtua.
3 Lingabokwenza lokhu okwenziwa eGibhithe, lapho elalikhona, njalo lingabokwenza abakwenzayo ezweni laseKhenani, lapho engilisa khona. Lingalandeli abakwenzayo.
ʻOua naʻa mou fai ʻo hangē ko e faianga ʻae fonua ko ʻIsipite, ʻaia naʻa mou nofo ai: pea ʻe ʻikai te mou fai ʻo hangē ko e faianga ʻae fonua ko Kēnani, ʻaia te u ʻomi ʻakimoutolu ki ai; pea ʻoua naʻa mou ʻalu ʻi heʻenau ngaahi fekau.
4 Lalelani imithetho yami njalo linanzelele, lilandele izimiso zami. Mina nginguThixo uNkulunkulu wenu.
Ka mou fai ki heʻeku ngaahi fekau ʻo tauhi ʻeku ngaahi tuʻutuʻuni, ke fai ki ai; Ko au ko Sihova ko homou ʻOtua.

ʻOua naʻa ofi atu ha taha ʻiate kimoutolu ki ha tokotaha ʻoku kāinga moʻoni mo ia ko hono fakatelefuaʻi: Ko au ko Sihova.
7 Ungatheleli uyihlo ihlazo ngokulala lonyoko. Ngunyoko; ungalali laye.
Ko e telefua ʻo hoʻo tamai pe ko e telefua ʻo hoʻo faʻē ʻoua naʻa ke tatala: he ko hoʻo faʻē ia; ʻe ʻikai te ke fakatelefuaʻi ia.
8 Ungalali lomfazi kayihlo; lokho kuthelela uyihlo ihlazo.
ʻOua naʻa ke fakatelefua ʻae mali ʻo hoʻo tamai; he ko e telefua ia ʻo hoʻo tamai.
9 Ungalali lodadewenu, loba indodakazi kayihlo loba indodakazi kanyoko, kungakhathalekile ukuthi wazalelwa ekhaya loba kwenye indawo.
ʻOua naʻa ke fakatelefua ʻa ho tuofefine ko e ʻofefine ʻo hoʻo tamai, pe ko e tama ʻo hoʻo faʻē, pe kuo ne tupu ʻi ʻapi, pe tupu ʻi he mamaʻo, ʻoua naʻa ke tatala honau telefua.
10 Ungalali lendodakazi yendodana yakho loba indodakazi yendodakazi yakho; lokhu kuzakuthelela ihlazo.
ʻOua naʻa ke fakatelefua ʻae ʻofefine ʻo ho foha, pe ko e tama ʻa ho ʻofefine; he ko honau telefua ko ho telefua ʻoʻou ia.

Pea ko e telefua ʻoe tama ʻae mali ʻo hoʻo tamai, kuo tupu ʻi hoʻo tamai, ko hoʻo tuofefine ia, ʻoua naʻa ke fakatelefua ia.
12 Ungalali lodadewabo kayihlo; uyisihlobo sikayihlo esiseduze kakhulu.
ʻOua naʻa ke fakatelefua ʻae tuofefine ʻo hoʻo tamai: he ko e kāinga fefine ofi ia ʻo hoʻo tamai.
13 Ungalali lodadewabo kanyoko, uyisihlobo sikanyoko esiseduzane kakhulu.
ʻOua naʻa ke fakatelefua ʻae tokoua ʻo hoʻo faʻē: he ko e kāinga fefine ofi ia ʻo hoʻo faʻē.
14 Ungatheleli umfowabo kayihlo ihlazo ngokusondela kumkakhe ukuthi ulale laye, ngoba ungunyoko.
ʻOua naʻa ke fakatelefua ʻae tokoua ʻo hoʻo tamai; ʻoua naʻa ke ʻunuʻunu ʻo ofi ki hono mali; he ko ho mehikitanga ia,
15 Ungalali lomalokazana wakho, ngumfazi wendodana yakho; ungalali laye.
ʻOua naʻa ke fakatelefua ʻa ho ʻofefine ʻi he fono: he ko e mali ia ʻo ho foha; ʻoua naʻa ke fakatelefua ia.
16 Ungalali lomfazi womfowenu; kuzathelela umfowenu ihlazo.
ʻOua naʻa ke fakatelefua ʻae mali ʻo ho tokoua: he ko e telefua ʻo ho tokoua ia.
17 Ungalali lowesifazane kanye lendodakazi yakhe. Ungalali lendodakazi yendodana yakhe loba indodakazi yendodakazi yakhe; bayizihlobo zakho eziseduzane. Lokhu kuyikuxhwala.
ʻOua naʻa ke fakatelefua ha fefine mo ʻene tama, pea ʻoua naʻa ke ʻave ʻae ʻofefine ʻo ʻene tama, pe ko e tama ʻa ʻene tama, ke fakatelefua ia; he ko hono kāinga fefine ofi ʻakinautolu; ko e meʻa kovi ia.
18 Ungathathi udadewabo womkakho ukuthi ulale laye nxa umkakho esaphila.
Pea ʻoua naʻa ke mali mo e tokoua ʻo ho mali ke fakamamahi ʻaki ia, mo fakatelefua ia ʻi heʻene kei moʻui ʻaʻana.
19 Ungasondeli kowesifazane ukuthi ulale laye ngesikhathi esemfuleni ngoba ungcolile.
Pea ʻoua naʻa ke ʻunuʻunu ʻo ofi ki ha fefine ke fakatelefua ia, lolotonga kuo vaheʻi ia ʻi heʻene taʻemaʻa.
20 Ungalali lomfazi kamakhelwane wakho ngoba uyazingcolisa ngaye.
Pea ʻoua foki naʻa ke mohe angahala mo e uafi ʻo ho kaungāʻapi, ke fakaʻuliʻi koe mo ia.
21 Unganikeli loba nguphi wabantwabakho ukuthi abe ngumhlatshelo kunkulunkulu uMoleki, ngoba akufanelanga ukuthi ungcolise ibizo likaNkulunkulu wakho. Mina nginguThixo.
Pea ʻoua naʻa ke tuku ke ʻalu ʻa ho hako ʻi he afi kia Moleki, pea ʻoua naʻa ke fakaongokovi ʻae huafa ʻo ho ʻOtua; Ko au ko Sihova.
22 Ungalali lendoda njengendoda ilala lomfazi; lokhu kuyisinengiso.
ʻOua naʻa ke mohe mo ha tangata ʻo hangē ko e mohe mo e fefine: ko e meʻa fakalielia ia.
23 Ungafebi lenyamazana, ngoba uyazingcolisa ngalokho. Owesifazane angafebi lenyamazana, lokhu kuyisinengiso.
Pea ʻe ʻikai te ke mohe mo ha manu ke fakaʻuliʻi koe ʻi ai: pea ʻoua naʻa tuʻu ha fefine ʻi he ʻao ʻoe manu ke tokoto ki ai: ko e meʻa kovi fakaʻulia ia.
24 Lingazingcolisi noma kungayiphi yalezizindlela, ngoba yizo izindlela izizwe engizazidudula phambi kwenu ezazingcolisa ngazo.
ʻOua naʻa mou fakalieliaʻi ʻakimoutolu ʻi ha ngaahi meʻa pehē: he ʻoku ʻuliʻi ʻi he ngaahi meʻa ni ʻae ngaahi puleʻanga ʻaia ʻoku ou kapusi mei homou ʻao:
25 Kwaze kwangcola lelizwe; kungakho ngalijezisa ngesono salo, ilizwe ababehlala kulo labakhafula.
ʻOku fakalieliaʻi ʻae fonua: ko ia ʻoku ou totongi ki ai ʻene hia, pea ʻoku lua ʻaki foki ʻe he fonua ko ia ʻa hono kakai.
26 Kodwa kumele ligcine izimiso zami lemilayo yami. Lina banikazi belizwe labezizwe abaphakathi kwenu, akufanelanga benze lezizinto ezenyanyekayo,
Ko ia te mou tauhi ʻeku ngaahi tuʻutuʻuni mo ʻeku ngaahi fekau, pea ʻoua naʻa mou fai ha meʻa ʻe taha ʻi he ngaahi meʻa fakalielia ni, ʻe ha tokotaha ʻi homou puleʻanga, pe ha muli, ʻoku ʻāunofo ʻiate kimoutolu.
27 ngoba zonke lezizinto zenziwa ngabantu ababehlala kulelilizwe lina lingakafiki, ngakho ilizwe langcola.
(He ko e ngaahi meʻa fakalielia ni kuo fai ʻe he kau tangata ʻoe fonua, pea kuo pani ʻuli fōfō ʻae fonua: )
28 Nxa lingenza amanyala kulelilizwe, lizalikhafula njengendlela elakhafula ngayo izizwe ezalandulelayo.
Telia naʻa lua ʻaki ʻakimoutolu foki ʻe he fonua, ʻo hangē ko ʻene lua ʻaki kituʻa ʻae ngaahi puleʻanga naʻe muʻomuʻa ʻiate kimoutolu.
29 Loba ngubani owenza lezizinto ezenyanyekayo, kumele axotshwe ebantwini bakibo.
He ko ia ʻe fai ha meʻa ʻi he ngaahi meʻa fakalielia ni, ʻio, ko e laumālie ʻe fai ia ʻe motuhi ia mei hono kakai.
30 Gcinani iziqondiso zami, lingalandeli izindlela zamanyala lemikhuba eyayilandelwa ngabantu abalandulelayo, njalo lingazingcolisi ngayo. Mina nginguThixo uNkulunkulu wenu.’”
Ko ia te mou tauhi ai ʻeku ngaahi fekau, koeʻuhi ke ʻoua naʻa mou fai ha meʻa ʻe taha ʻi he ngaahi anga fakalielia ni, ʻaia naʻe fai ʻi muʻa ʻi homou ʻao, pea ke ʻoua naʻa mou ʻuliʻi ʻakimoutolu ʻi ai: Ko au ko Sihova ko homou ʻOtua.
