Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose sɛ,
2 “Tshela lonke ibandla lako-Israyeli uthi kulo: ‘Wobani ngcwele ngoba mina Thixo uNkulunkulu wenu ngingcwele.
“Ka kyerɛ Israelfoɔ no sɛ, ‘Ɛsɛ sɛ moyɛ kronkron, ɛfiri sɛ, me Awurade a meyɛ mo Onyankopɔn no, meyɛ kronkron.
3 Ngulowo lalowo kini kahloniphe unina loyise, njalo kumele ligcine amaSabatha ami. Mina nginguThixo uNkulunkulu wenu.
“‘Ɛsɛ sɛ mode anidie ma mo maamenom ne mo agyanom na modi me homeda mmara no so, ɛfiri sɛ, meyɛ Awurade mo Onyankopɔn.
4 Lingaphendukeli ezithombeni loba lizibumbele onkulunkulu benu. NginguThixo uNkulunkulu wenu.
“‘Monnsom ahoni, ɛfiri sɛ, meyɛ Awurade mo Onyankopɔn.
5 Nxa lisenza umhlatshelo womnikelo wobudlelwano kuThixo, wenzeni ngendlela ezakwenza wamukeleke ukusiza lina.
“‘Ɛsɛ sɛ mobɔ asomdwoeɛ afɔdeɛ ma Awurade a momfa ɛkwan pa so mmɔ na asɔ Awurade ani.
6 Kumele udliwe ngalo ilanga lomhlatshelo loba ngelanga lakusasa; lokho okuseleyo kuze kube lilanga lesithathu kumele kutshiswe.
Ɛda a mobɛbɔ saa afɔdeɛ no, monni no ɛda no ara, na aboro so koraa na ɛsɛ sɛ modi no adekyeeɛ. Monhye deɛ ɛbɛdi nnansa no.
7 Lokho okudliwa ngelanga lesithathu kuzabe sekungcolile, kungabe kusemukeleka.
Na deɛ mobɛdi no nnansa so no yɛ akyiwadeɛ ma me, enti mɛpo.
8 Lowo okudlayo uzakuba lomlandu, ngoba uzabe esengcolise lokho okungcwele kuThixo.
Sɛ modi no nnansa so a, modi ho fɔ na moagu Awurade kronkronyɛ nso ho fi, na wɔbɛtwa mo asuo afiri Awurade nkurɔfoɔ mu.
9 Lapho libutha isivuno samasimu enu, lingabuthi konke kuze kube semaphethelweni ensimu kumbe lize liqede konke.
“‘Sɛ motwa mo nnɔbaeɛ a, monntwa nnɔbaeɛ a ɛwɔ mo mfuo nhanoa no. Sɛ moretwa a, aba a ɛbɛgu fam no nso, monntase.
10 Lingakhi izithelo ezivinini zenu kabili kumbe lidobhe ezikhithikileyo. Zitshiyeleni abayanga lezihambi. Mina nginguThixo uNkulunkulu wenu.
Saa ara na mo bobe so aba no nso, ɛnsɛ sɛ mote so nyinaa. Na deɛ ɛbɛte agu aseɛ no nso, monntase. Monnya mma ahiafoɔ ne akwantufoɔ a wɔbɛfa hɔ no na mene Awurade mo Onyankopɔn.
11 Lingebi. Lingaqambi amanga. Lingakhohlisani.
“‘Mommmɔ korɔno. “‘Monntwa atorɔ. “‘Na monnsisi obiara.
12 Lingafungi amanga ngebizo lami, beselingcolisa ibizo likaNkulunkulu wenu. NginguThixo.
“‘Monnka ntanhunu mfa ngu mo Onyankopɔn din ho fi, ɛfiri sɛ, mene Awurade.
13 Lingaqilibezeli umakhelwane wenu, lingamkhuthuzi. Umuntu oqhatshiweyo lingambambeli iholo lakhe kuze kube kusasa.
“‘Nwia wo yɔnko na monnsisi obi. “‘Na mo apaafoɔ nso, montua wɔn ka ntɛm na mommma adeɛ nkye so.
14 Lingathuki isacuthe loba liphosele isikhubekiso phambi kwesiphofu, kodwa yesabani uNkulunkulu wenu. NginguThixo.
“‘Monnnome ɔsotifoɔ na monntwintwane onifirani akwan mu. Monsuro mo Onyankopɔn; Mene Awurade.
15 Lingawutshili umthetho; lingabandlululi umyanga kumbe litshengise ukukhetha abakhulu, kodwa mahluleleni ngokulunga umakhelwane wenu.
“‘Ɛsɛ sɛ ɛberɛ biara atemmufoɔ bu atɛntenenee a wɔnhwɛ sɛ deɛ wɔrebu no atɛn no yɛ ohiani anaa osikani. Ɛsɛ sɛ daa wɔn atemmuo yɛ pɛpɛɛpɛ.
16 Lingahambi linyeya kwabakini. Ungenzi lutho olulimaza umakhelwane wakho. NginguThixo.
“‘Monnni nsekuro. “‘Mfa bɔne bi ho asɛm nto wo yɔnko so, na mene Awurade.
17 Lingamzondi umfowenu ngezinhliziyo zenu. Khuzani umakhelwane likhululekile ukuze lingabi lomlandu njengaye.
“‘Ntane wo nua. Ka obiara a ɔyɛ bɔne anim; mma ɔbɔnefoɔ mfa ne ho nni. Sɛ woyɛ saa a, wo nso wodi ho fɔ saa ara.
18 Lingaphindiseli loba libambe isikhwili komunye wabantu bakini, kodwa thandani omakhelwane benu njengalokhu lizithanda lina. NginguThixo.
“‘Ntɔ were. Nnya obi ho menasepɔ; na mmom, dɔ wo yɔnko sɛ wo ho, na mene Awurade.
19 Gcinani izimemezelo zami. Lingenzi izifuyo zenu zikhwele ezolunye uhlobo. Lingahlanyeli insimu yinye ngemihlobo emibili yenhlanyelo etshiyeneyo. Lingavunuli izigqoko ezenziwe ngemihlobo yamalembu amabili atshiyeneyo.
“‘Monni me mmara so: “‘Mma wo nantwie mforo aboa foforɔ bi. “‘Nnua afifideɛ a ɛgu ahodoɔ mmienu wɔ wʼafuo mu. “‘Nhyɛ atadeɛ a ɛfa yɛ kuntu na ɛfa nso yɛ serekye.
20 Nxa indoda ingalala lowesifazane oyisigqili osethembise enye indoda kodwa ongakahlengwa loba waphiwa inkululeko, kayijeziswe leyondoda. Kodwa akumelanga babulawe ngoba owesifazane lowo kakakhululwa.
“‘Sɛ obi bɔ afenaa bi a obi asi no asiwaa asɔn a, ɛsɛ sɛ wɔdi wɔn asɛm wɔ asɛnniiɛ nanso ɛnsɛ sɛ wɔkum wɔn, ɛfiri sɛ, afenaa no nne ne ho.
21 Kodwa indoda kumele ilethe inqama esangweni lethente lokuhlangana, ibe ngumnikelo wecala kuThixo.
Ɔbarima no na ɔde ne fɔdie afɔrebɔdeɛ bɛbrɛ Awurade wɔ Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no kwan ano. Ɛsɛ sɛ afɔrebɔdeɛ no yɛ odwennini.
22 Ngaleyonqama yomnikelo wecala, umphristi kamenzele indlela yokubuyisana kuThixo ngenxa yesono esenzileyo. Isono sayo sizathethelelwa.
Ɔsɔfoɔ no de odwennini no bɛyɛ mpatadeɛ ama ɔbarima no bɔne a ɔyɛeɛ no na ama wɔde ne bɔne no akyɛ no.
23 Nxa selingenile elizweni, lahlanyela zonke izihlahla ezidliwayo, lingadli izithelo zazo ngoba kuyazila. Ziyazila okweminyaka emithathu; kazingadliwa.
“‘Sɛ mokɔ asase bi so kɔdua nnuaba ahodoɔ pii wɔ so a, nnɔbaetwa mmiɛnsa a ɛdi ɛkan no, monnni, ɛfiri sɛ, wɔbu no sɛ ɛho agu fi.
24 Ngomnyaka wesine, zonke izithelo zazo zizabangcwele, zibe ngumnikelo wokudumisa uThixo.
Na ne mfeɛ ɛnan so no, momfa aba no nyinaa mma Awurade mfa nkamfo no.
