ULevi 26
1 “‘Lingazenzeli izithombe loba imifanekiso kumbe amatshe akhonzwayo, njalo lingafaki matshe elizweni lenu ukuba liwakhothamele. Mina nginguThixo uNkulunkulu wenu.
“E ʻikai te mou ngaohi hamou ʻotua loi, pe ha fakatātā kuo tongitongi, pea ʻoua naʻa mou fokotuʻu hake ha meʻa fakatātā ke tuʻu, pea ʻe ʻikai te mou fokotuʻu hake ha fakatātā maka ʻi homou fonua, ke punou hifo ki ai: he ko au Sihova ko homou ʻOtua.
2 Gcinani amaSabatha ami, lihloniphe indlu yami engcwele. Mina nginguThixo.
“Ke mou tauhi hoku ngaahi Sāpate, pea fai fakaʻapaʻapa ki hoku faletapu: Ko au ko Sihova.
3 Lingalalela izimiso zami, ligcine imilayo yami,
“Kapau ʻoku mou ʻalu ʻi heʻeku ngaahi tuʻutuʻuni, pea tauhi ʻeku ngaahi fekau, pea fai ki ai;
4 ngizalehlisela izulu ngesikhathi salo, umhlabathi uthele amabele, lezihlahla zeganga zithele izithelo zazo.
Te u tuku ai kiate kimoutolu ʻae ʻuha ʻi hono faʻahitaʻu lelei, pea ʻe tupu ʻi he fonua ʻa hono fua, pea ʻe tupu mei he ngaahi ʻakau ʻoe ngoue honau ngaahi fua.
5 Ukubhula kwenu kuzaqhubeka kuze kufike isikhathi sokuvunwa kwamavini, kuthi ukuvunwa kwamavini kuqhubeke kuze kufike isikhathi sokuhlanyela, njalo lizakudla konke ukudla elikufunayo lihlale ngokuvikeleka elizweni lenu.
Pea ʻe hoko atu homou kuonga haha ki he tataʻo ʻoe vaine, pea ko e tataʻo vaine ʻe hoko atu ia ki he tūtuuʻi: pea te mou kai hoʻomou mā pea mākona, pea nofo fiemālie pe ʻi homou fonua.
6 Ngizaletha ukuthula elizweni lenu, kungekho muntu ozalethusa. Ngizasusa izinyamazana eziyingozi elizweni; inkemba ayiyikwedlula phakathi kwelizwe lenu.
Pea te u foaki ʻae melino ki he fonua, pea te mou tokoto hifo, pea ʻe ʻikai fakamanavahēʻi ʻakimoutolu ʻe ha tokotaha: pea te u fakaseʻeseʻe ʻae fanga manu kovi mei he fonua, pea ʻe ʻikai ʻalu ʻae heletā ʻo ʻasi ʻi homou fonua.
7 Lizazixotsha izitha zenu, ziwe ngenkemba phambi kwenu.
Pea te mou tuli homou ngaahi fili, pea tenau tō ʻi he heletā ʻi homou ʻao.
8 Abahlanu benu bazaxotsha abalikhulu, kuthi abalikhulu benu baxotshe abayinkulungwane, njalo izitha zenu zizakuwa ngenkemba phambi kwenu.
Pea ʻe tuli ʻe homou toko nima ʻae toko teau, pea ko e toko teau ʻomoutolu ʻe hola ai ʻae toko mano: pea ʻe hinga homou ngaahi fili ʻi homou ʻao ʻi he heletā.
9 Ngizakuba lomusa kini ngilinike inzalo lande; njalo ngizagcina isivumelwano sami lani.
He teu tokanga kiate kimoutolu, ʻo tāpuaki ʻakimoutolu, ʻo fakatokolahi ʻakimoutolu, ʻo fakatuʻumaʻu ʻeku fuakava mo kimoutolu.
10 Lizakudla okwesivuno sanyakenye lapho okuzamele lisisuse ukuze kube lendawo yesivuno esitsha.
Pea te mou kai ʻae meʻa motuʻa, pea ʻomi ʻae meʻa motuʻa koeʻuhi ko e meʻa foʻou.
11 Ngizabeka indawo yami yokuhlala phakathi kwenu, njalo kaliyikunginenga.
Pea te u fokotuʻu hoku fale fehikitaki ʻiate kimoutolu: pea ʻe ʻikai fehiʻa hoku laumālie kiate kimoutolu.
12 Ngizahamba phakathi kwenu, ngibe nguNkulunkulu wenu lina libe ngabantu bami.
Pea te u ʻeveʻeva ʻiate kimoutolu, pea ko homou ʻOtua au, pea te mou hoko ko hoku kakai.
13 Mina nginguThixo uNkulunkulu wenu owalikhupha elizweni laseGibhithe ukuze lingabi yizigqili zamaGibhithe futhi. Ngizaphule izikeyi zejogwe lenu njalo ngenza ukuba lenelise ukuhamba amakhanda enu ephakeme.’”
Ko au ko Sihova ko homou ʻOtua, ʻaia naʻe ʻomi ʻakimoutolu mei he fonua ko ʻIsipite, koeʻuhi ke ʻoua naʻa mou nofo pōpula kiate kinautolu; pea naʻaku fesiʻi ʻae noʻo ʻo hoʻomou haʻamonga, ʻo ngaohi ʻakimoutolu ke mou ʻalu totonu.
14 “‘Kodwa nxa lingayikungilalela, lingayigcini lemilayo yonke le,
“Pea kapau ʻe ʻikai te mou tokanga kiate au, pea ʻikai fai ʻae ngaahi fekau ni;
15 njalo nxa lizakwala izimiso zami, linengwe yimithetho yami, lingenzi okwemilayo yami yonke, ngalokho lephule isivumelwano sami,
Pea kapau te mou liʻaki ʻeku ngaahi tuʻutuʻuni ni, pea kapau ʻe fehiʻa homou laumālie ki heʻeku ngaahi fakamaau, pea ʻikai te mou fai ʻeku ngaahi fekau kotoa pē, ka mou liʻaki ʻeku fuakava:
16 ngizakwenza lokhu kini: Ngizalilethela ukwesaba okukhulu, izifo ezicikizayo, loqhuqho oluzafiphaza amehlo enu, lunciphise impilo yenu. Lizahlanyela inhlanyelo ingasizi ngalutho, ngoba izitha zenu zizayidla.
Ko au foki te u fai eni kiate kimoutolu; Te u tuku kiate kimoutolu ʻae fakailifia, mo e fakaʻauʻausino, mo e pupuke vela, ʻaia ʻe fakakui ai ho mata, pea ne langaʻi ʻae mamahi ʻi loto: pea te mou tūtuuʻi taʻeʻaonga hoʻomou ngaahi tenga, koeʻuhi ʻe kai ia ʻe homou ngaahi fili.
17 Ngizaliphendukela lehlulwe yizitha zenu, abalizondayo bazalibusa; lizabaleka lanxa kungekho olixotshayo.
Pea te u sio fakafulofula kiate kimoutolu, pea ʻe tāmateʻi ʻakimoutolu ʻi he ʻao ʻo homou ngaahi fili: ʻe pule kiate kimoutolu ʻakinautolu ʻoku fehiʻa kiate kimoutolu; pea te mou hola ka ʻoku ʻikai tuli ʻakimoutolu ʻe ha tokotaha.
18 Nxa emva kwakho konke lokhu lingayikungilalela, ngizalijezisa ngokuphindwe kasikhombisa ngenxa yezono zenu.
Pea kapau te mou liʻaki kotoa pē ia, ʻo ʻikai siʻi tokanga kiate au, pea te u toki tautea ʻakimoutolu ke tā tuʻo fitu ʻi hoʻomou ngaahi angahala.
19 Ngizabudiliza ubuqholo bokuzazisa kwenu, ngenze umkhathi phezu kwenu ube njengensimbi, kuthi umhlabathi ngaphansi kwenu ube njengethusi.
Pea te u fesiʻi ʻae laukau ʻo homou mālohi; pea te u ngaohi homou langi ke hangē ko e ukamea, mo homou kelekele ke hangē ko e palasa:
20 Amandla enu azachithelwa ize, ngoba umhlabathi wenu awuyikulinika amabele, lezihlahla zelizwe aziyikuthela izithelo zazo.
Pea ʻe fakaʻosi taʻeʻaonga homou mālohi: koeʻuhi ʻe ʻikai tuku hake ʻe he fonua hono tupu, pea ʻe ʻikai tupu ʻi he ngaahi ʻakau ʻoe fonua honau fua.
21 Lingaqhubeka liyizitha kimi, lale ukungilalela, ngizalithumela inhlupheko zenu kasikhombisa njengokufanele izono zenu.
“Pea kapau te mou ʻalu kehe pe, pea ʻikai tokanga kiate au; te u ʻomi kiate kimoutolu ʻae mamahi ke tā tuʻo fitu ʻo fakatatau mo hoʻomou ngaahi angahala.
22 Ngizalithumela izilo zeganga, ezizalemuka abantwabenu, zibulale inkomo zenu, zilenze libe balutshwana, imigwaqo yenu ize isale ingaselamuntu.
Pea te u ʻomi ʻae ngaahi manu fekai kiate kimoutolu, ʻaia ʻe kaihaʻasi hoʻomou fānau meiate kimoutolu, pea fakaʻauha hoʻomou fanga manu, ʻo fakatokosiʻi ʻakimoutolu; pea ʻe vaoa homou ngaahi hala motuʻa.
23 Nxa phezu kwalezizinto lingemukeli iziqondiso zami, liqhubeke liyizitha kimi,
“Pea kapau ʻe ʻikai te mou tui kiate au ʻi he ngaahi meʻa ni ʻo liliu ai, ka mou angatuʻu kiate au;
24 mina ngokwami ngizakuba yisitha kini, ngilitshaye okuphindwe kasikhombisa ngenxa yezono zenu.
Pehē te u ʻalu hake foki kiate kimoutolu, pea te u tautea ʻakimoutolu ke tā tuʻo fitu ʻi hoʻomou ngaahi angahala.
25 Njalo ngizaletha lenkemba phezu kwenu ukuba kuphindiselwe ukwephulwa kwesivumelwano. Lingahlehlela emadolobheni enu, ngizathumela isifo phakathi kwenu, linikelwe lezandleni zezitha.
Pea te u ʻomi ʻae heletā kiate kimoutolu, ʻaia te ne totongi kiate kimoutolu ʻi hono maumauʻi ʻo ʻeku fuakava: pea ka mou ka kātoa fakataha ʻi hoʻomou ngaahi kolo, te u fekau ʻae mahaki lahi kiate kimoutolu; pea ʻe tukuange ʻakimoutolu ki he nima ʻoe fili.
26 Lapho sengimise ukulethwa kwezinkwa zenu, abesifazane abalitshumi bazapheka izinkwa zenu eziko elilodwa, babele izinkwa zenu ngobunzima bazo; lizakudla kodwa lingasuthi.
Pea hili ʻeku fesiʻi ʻae tokotoko ʻo hoʻomou mā, ko e kau fefine ʻe toko hongofulu tenau taʻo hoʻomou mā ʻi he ngotoʻumu pe taha, pea tenau toe ʻatu fakatuhotuha pe hoʻomou mā kiate kimoutolu: pea te mou kai, kae ʻikai mākona.
27 Nxa lingaqhubeka lingangilaleli, liqhubeka liyizitha kimi,
“Pea kapau ʻe ʻikai te mou tui kiate au neongo ʻa ʻeku fai eni kotoa pē, ka mou fai kehe pe kiate au:
28 lami ngolaka lwami ngizakuba yisitha kini, njalo mina ngokwami ngizalijezisa okuphindwe kasikhombisa ngenxa yezono zenu.
Pea te u toki ʻalu kehe pe au ʻiate kimoutolu ʻi he houhau lahi: pea ko au, ʻio, ko au te u tautea ʻakimoutolu ke tā tuʻo fitu ʻi hoʻomou ngaahi angahala.
29 Lizakudla inyama yemizimba yamadodana enu, lidle lenyama yemizimba yamadodakazi enu.
Pea te mou kai ʻae sino ʻo homou ngaahi foha, mo e sino ʻo homou ngaahi ʻofefine te mou kai.
30 Ngizabhidliza izindawo zenu eziphakemeyo, ngidilize lama-alithare enu empepha, besengibuthelela izidumbu zenu phezu kwezithombe zenu ezingaphiliyo, nginengeke ngani.
Pea te u maumauʻi homou ngaahi potu māʻolunga, pea tā hifo hoʻomou ngaahi meʻa fakatātā, ʻo laku homou ngaahi ʻangaʻanga ki he ʻangaʻanga ʻo homou ngaahi ʻotua loi, pea te u fakaliliʻa kiate kimoutolu.
31 Ngizakwenza amadolobho enu abe ngamanxiwa, ngidilize izindlu zenu ezingcwele, njalo angiyikuthokoziswa yikunuka mnandi kwephunga leminikelo yenu.
Pea te u ngaohi hoʻomou ngaahi kolo ke lala, pea te u tuku liʻaki pe homou ngaahi faletapu, pea ʻe ʻikai te u nanamu ki he namu kakala ʻo hoʻomou meʻa namu kakala.
32 Ilizwe ngizalitshabalalisa kuze kumangale izitha zenu ezihlala kulo.
Pea te u fakalala ʻae fonua; pea ko homou ngaahi fili ʻaia ʻoku nofo ai tenau ofo ki ai.
33 Ngizalihlakazela phakathi kwezizwe, ngikhokhe inkemba yami, ngilixotshe. Ilizwe lenu lizatshabalaliswa, amadolobho enu abe ngamanxiwa.
Pea te u fakahēʻi ʻakimoutolu ki he ngaahi fonua taʻelotu, pea teu toho ʻae heletā ke tuli ʻaki ʻakimoutolu: pea ʻe lala homou fonua, pea ʻe liʻaki homou ngaahi kolo.
34 Lapho-ke ilizwe lizathokoziswa ngamasabatha alo ngesikhathi sonke lichithekile, lina liselizweni lezitha zenu. Emva kwalokho, ilizwe lizaphumula lithokoze ngamasabatha alo.
Pea ʻe toki maʻu mālie pe ʻe he fonua hono ngaahi Sāpate, lolotonga ʻa ʻene lala, ka ʻoku mou ʻi he fonua ʻo homou fili ʻakimoutolu; ʻio, ʻe toki mālōlō ʻae fonua, pea maʻu pe hono ngaahi Sāpate.
35 Ngasosonke lesosikhathi ilizwe lichithekile lizakuba lokuphumula elingazange libe lakho ngamasabatha esikhathi lina lisahlala kulo.
Lolotonga hono tuku liʻaki ia ʻe mālōlō; koeʻuhi naʻe ʻikai mālōlō ia ʻi homou ngaahi Sāpate, lolotonga ʻa hoʻomou nofo ki ai.
36 Mayelana lalabo abasele bephila, ngizakwenza inhliziyo zabo zibe lokwesaba okukhulu bekhonale emazweni ezitha zabo baze babalekele lomsindo wehlamvu liphetshulwa ngumoya. Bazagijima angathi babalekela inkemba; bazakuwa lanxa kungekho muntu obaxotshayo.
“Pea kiate kinautolu ʻoku moʻui mo toe, ʻiate kimoutolu te u tuku ʻae vaivai ki honau loto ʻi he ngaahi fonua ʻo honau fili; pea ko e mumuhu ʻoe louʻakau vilingia te ne tulia ʻakinautolu; pea tenau hola ʻo hangē ko e hola mei he heletā; pea tenau hinga ʻi he ʻikai tuli ʻakinautolu ʻe ha tokotaha.
37 Bazagwenxana angathi babalekela inkemba, lanxa kungekho muntu obaxotshayo. Ngakho aliyikuba lamandla okumelana lezitha zenu.
Pea tenau tō ʻo fetaʻotaʻomi pe ʻakinautolu, ʻo hangē ko e tō ʻi he ʻao ʻoe heletā, ka ʻoku ʻikai ha tokotaha ʻoku tulia ʻakinautolu: pea ʻe ʻikai te mou maʻu ha mālohi ke tuʻu ʻi he ʻao ʻo homou fili:
38 Lizabhubha phakathi kwezizwe, lidliwe yilizwe lezitha zenu.
Pea te mou ʻauha ʻi he ngaahi fonua taʻelotu, pea ko e fonua ʻo homou ngaahi fili te ne kai ʻo ʻosi ʻakimoutolu.
39 Abenu labo abasalayo bazahlala behlulukelwe emazweni ezitha zabo ngenxa yezono zabo, njalo bazahlulukelwa ngenxa yezono zaboyise.
Pea ko kinautolu ʻoku toe ʻiate kimoutolu tenau fakaʻaʻau ʻo ʻosi ʻi heʻenau hia ʻi he fonua ʻo homou fili: pea ʻi he hia ʻa ʻenau ngaahi tamai foki tenau fakaʻaʻau ʻo mole ai.
40 Kodwa bangavuma izono zabo lezono zaboyise, inkohliso abayenza kimi, lokumelana kwabo lami,
“Kapau tenau vete ʻenau ngaahi hia, pea mo e hia ʻa ʻenau ngaahi tamai, mo ʻenau ngaahi fai hala ʻaia kuo nau angahala ai kiate au, pea pehē mai foki, kuo nau ʻalu ʻo angatuʻu kiate au;
41 okwenza lami ngaba yisitha kubo ngaze ngabasa elizweni lezitha zabo, kuthi lapho inhliziyo zabo ezingasokwanga sezithobekile, behlawulela lezono zabo futhi,
Pea kuo u ʻalu ʻo fai kehe kiate kinautolu, pea kuo u ʻomi ʻakinautolu ki he fonua ʻo honau fili; kapau kuo toki fakavaivai ʻa honau loto taʻekamu, pea nau maʻu loto lelei ʻae tautea ʻo ʻenau ngaahi hia:
42 ngizasikhumbula isivumelwano sami loJakhobe, lesivumelwano sami lo-Isaka, lesivumelwano sami lo-Abhrahama, besengilikhumbula ilizwe.
Pehē te u manatu ai ki heʻeku fuakava kia Sēkope, pea mo ʻeku fuakava mo ʻAisake, pea mo ʻeku fuakava foki mo ʻEpalahame te u manatuʻi; pea te u manatuʻi ʻae fonua.
43 Ngoba ilizwe bazalitshiya lithokoze ngamasabatha alo lapho lichithekile, bengekho kulo. Bazahlawulela izono zabo ngoba imithetho yami bayala, benengeka ngezimiso zami.
ʻE tuku liʻaki pe foki ʻae fonua ʻekinautolu, pea te ne maʻu mālie hono ngaahi Sāpate, ʻi heʻene tuku liʻaki pe ʻekinautolu: pea tenau tali lelei ʻae tautea ʻo ʻenau hia: koeʻuhi, ʻio, ko e meʻa ʻi heʻenau liʻaki ʻeku ngaahi fono, pea ko e meʻa ʻi heʻenau fehiʻa ki heʻeku ngaahi tuʻutuʻuni.
44 Ikanti lanxa kunjalo, nxa sebeselizweni lezitha zabo angiyikubalahla loba nginengeke ngabo, besengibatshabalalisa ngephule lesivumelwano sami labo. Mina nginguThixo uNkulunkulu wabo.
Ka neongo ʻa eni kotoa pē, ʻoka nau ka ʻi he fonua ʻo honau fili, ʻe ʻikai te u liʻaki ʻakinautolu, pea ʻe ʻikai te u fehiʻa kiate kinautolu, ke fakaʻosi ʻaupito ʻakinautolu, pea ke liʻaki ʻeku fuakava mo kinautolu: he ko au ko Sihova ko honau ʻOtua.
45 Kodwa ngenxa yabo ngizasikhumbula isivumelwano sami labokhokho babo engabakhupha elizweni laseGibhithe, izizwe zikhangele ukuba ngibe nguNkulunkulu wabo. Mina nginguThixo.’”
Ka te u manatu koeʻuhi ko kinautolu, ki he fuakava ʻa ʻenau ʻuluaki mātuʻa, ʻaia naʻaku ʻomi mei he fonua ko ʻIsipite ʻi he ʻao ʻoe kakai taʻelotu, koeʻuhi ke u hoko ai ko honau ʻOtua: Ko au ko Sihova.”
46 Lezi yizimiso, imithetho lemilayo eyabekwa nguThixo ngoMosi entabeni iSinayi phakathi kwakhe labako-Israyeli.
Ko eni ʻae ngaahi tuʻutuʻuni mo e ngaahi fono, mo e ngaahi fekau, ʻaia naʻe fokotuʻu ʻe Sihova ke kau kiate ia mo e fānau ʻa ʻIsileli ʻi he moʻunga ko Sainai ʻi he nima ʻo Mōsese.
