UDutheronomi 1
1 La ngamazwi uMozisi awakhuluma kuIsrayeli wonke nganeno kweJordani enkangala, egcekeni eliqondene leSufi, phakathi kweParani leTofeli leLabani leHazerothi leDizahabi.
These [are] the words which he spoke Moses to all Israel on [the] other side of the Jordan in the wilderness in the desert plain opposite to Suph between Paran and between Tophel and Laban and Hazeroth and Di Zahab.
2 Kulensuku ezilitshumi lanye kusukela eHorebe ngendlela yentaba yeSeyiri kusiya eKadeshi-Bhaneya.
[is] one [plus] Ten day[s] from Horeb [the] way of [the] mountain of Seir to Kadesh Barnea.
3 Kwasekusithi ngomnyaka wamatshumi amane, ngenyanga yetshumi lanye, ngolokuqala lwenyanga, uMozisi wakhuluma kubantwana bakoIsrayeli njengakho konke iNkosi eyamlaya ngakho kubo,
And it was in forty year in [the] one [plus] ten month on [day] one of the month he spoke Moses to [the] people of Israel according to all that he had commanded Yahweh him to them.
4 esemtshayile uSihoni inkosi yamaAmori owayehlala eHeshiboni, loOgi inkosi yeBashani owayehlala eAshitarothi eEdreyi.
After had defeated he Sihon [the] king of the Amorite[s] who [was] dwelling in Heshbon and Og [the] king of Bashan who [was] dwelling in Ashtaroth in Edrei.
5 Nganeno kweJordani, elizweni lakoMowabi, uMozisi waqala ukuchasisa lumlayo esithi:
On [the] other side of the Jordan in [the] land of Moab he undertook Moses he made clear the law this saying.
6 INkosi uNkulunkulu wethu yakhuluma kithi eHorebe isithi: Selihlale isikhathi eseneleyo kulintaba.
Yahweh God our he spoke to us at Horeb saying [is] enough for you remaining at the mountain this.
7 Phendukani lisuke, liye entabeni yamaAmori, lendaweni ezakhelene lawo, egcekeni, entabeni, lesihotsheni, leningizimu, lekhunjini lolwandle, ilizwe lamaKhanani, leLebhanoni, kuze kube semfuleni omkhulu, umfula iYufrathi.
Turn - and set out for yourselves and go [the] hill country of the Amorite[s] and to all neighbors its in the desert plain in the hill country and in the Shephelah and in the Negev and on [the] coast of the sea [the] land of the Canaanite[s] and Lebanon to the river great [the] river of Euphrates.
8 Bonani, ngibeke ilizwe phambi kwenu. Ngenani, lidle ilifa lelizwe iNkosi eyalifungela oyihlo, oAbrahama, uIsaka, loJakobe, ukubanika lona lenzalo yabo emva kwabo.
See I set before you the land go and take possession of the land which he swore Yahweh to ancestors your to Abraham to Isaac and to Jacob to give to them and to offspring their after them.
9 Njalo ngakhuluma kini ngalesosikhathi ngisithi: Kangilakulithwala ngingedwa.
And I said to you at the time that saying not I am able to alone me to bear you.
10 INkosi uNkulunkulu wenu ilandisile, khangelani-ke, lamuhla linjengenkanyezi zamazulu ngobunengi.
Yahweh God your he has increased you and here you this day [are] like [the] stars of the heavens for multitude.
11 INkosi, uNkulunkulu waboyihlo, kayandise kini, njengoba linjalo, ngokuphindwe kankulungwane, ilibusise, njengokukhuluma kwayo kini.
Yahweh [the] God of ancestors your may he add to you like you a thousand times and may he bless you just as he spoke to you.
12 Ngingedwa ngingathwala njani ubunzima benu lomthwalo wenu lenkani yenu?
How? will I bear to alone me burden your and burden your and dispute[s] your.
13 Zithatheleni amadoda ahlakaniphileyo, azwisisayo, laziwayo ezizweni zenu, ngiwabeke-ke abe zinhloko zenu.
Provide for yourselves men wise and understanding and known to tribes your so I may appoint them chiefs your.
14 Laselingiphendula lisithi: Ilizwi olikhulumileyo lilungile ukulenza.
And you answered me and you said [is] good the word which you have spoken to do.
15 Ngasengithatha inhloko zezizwe zenu, amadoda ahlakaniphileyo, aziwayo, ngawabeka aba zinhloko phezu kwenu, induna zezinkulungwane, lenduna zamakhulu, lenduna zamatshumi amahlanu, lenduna zamatshumi, leziphathamandla zezizwe zenu.
And I took [the] chiefs of tribes your men wise and known and I appointed them chiefs over you leaders of thousands and leaders of hundreds and leaders of fifties and leaders of tens and officials of tribes your.
16 Ngasengilaya abahluleli benu ngalesosikhathi ngisithi: Zwanini okuphakathi kwabafowenu, lahlulele ngokulunga phakathi komuntu lomfowabo lowezizweni okuye.
And I commanded judges your at the time that saying hear between countrymen your and you will judge righteousness between anyone and between countryman his and between sojourner his.
17 Lingakhangeli ubuso ekwahluleleni, zwanini omncinyane njengomkhulu; lingesabi ubuso bomuntu, ngoba ukwahlulela kungokukaNkulunkulu. Lendaba elukhuni kini lizayiletha kimi, besengiyizwa.
Not you will pay regard to faces in judgment as the small as the great you will listen! not you will be afraid of anyone for the judgment [belongs] to God it and the matter which it will be [too] hard for you you will bring near! to me and I will hear it.
18 Langalesosikhathi ngalilaya zonke izinto elifanele ukuzenza.
And I commanded you at the time that all the things which you will do!
19 Sasesisuka eHorebe, sahamba kuyo yonke leyonkangala enkulu leyesabekayo elayibonayo ngendlela yentaba yamaAmori, njengokusilaya kweNkosi uNkulunkulu wethu, saze safika eKadeshi-Bhaneya.
And we set out from Horeb and we walked all the wilderness great and awesome that which you saw [the] way of [the] hill country of the Amorite[s] just as he had commanded Yahweh God our us and we came to Kadesh Barnea.
20 Ngasengisithi kini: Selifikile entabeni yamaAmori iNkosi uNkulunkulu wethu ezasinika yona.
And I said to you you have come to [the] hill country of the Amorite[s] which Yahweh God our [is] about to give to us.
21 Bona, iNkosi uNkulunkulu wakho ilinikile ilizwe phambi kwakho; yenyuka udle ilifa lalo, njengokutsho kweNkosi uNkulunkulu waboyihlo kuwe; ungesabi, ungadideki.
See he sets Yahweh God your before you the land go up take possession of [it] just as he spoke Yahweh [the] God of ancestors your to you may not you be afraid and may not you be dismayed.
22 Laselisondela kimi lonke lathi: Asithume amadoda phambi kwethu ukuze asihlolele ilizwe, abuyise ilizwi kithi, indlela esizakwenyuka ngayo, lemizi esizangena kuyo.
And you drew near! to me all of you and you said let us send out men before us so they may spy out for us the land so they may bring back us word the way which we will go up on it and the cities which we will go to them.
23 Lendaba yayinhle emehlweni ami; ngakho ngathatha kini amadoda alitshumi lambili, indodanye ngesizwe.
And it was good in view my the thing and I took from you two [plus] ten men a man one to the tribe.
24 Wona aphenduka, enyukela entabeni aze afika esihotsheni seEshikoli, asihlola.
And they turned and they went up the hill country towards and they came to [the] wadi of Eshcol and they spied out it.
25 Asethatha okwezithelo zelizwe esandleni sabo, azehlisela kithi; abuyisa ilizwi kithi athi: Ilizwe lihle iNkosi uNkulunkulu wethu esinika lona.
And they took in hand their some of [the] fruit of the land and they brought [it] down to us and they brought back us word and they said [is] good the land which Yahweh God our [is] about to give to us.
26 Kanti kalifunanga ukwenyuka, kodwa lavukela umlomo weNkosi uNkulunkulu wenu,
And not you were willing to go up and you rebelled toward [the] mouth of Yahweh God your.
27 langunguna emathenteni enu lathi: Ngoba iNkosi yayisizonda, yasikhupha elizweni leGibhithe ukusinikela esandleni samaAmori ukusibhubhisa.
And you murmured in tents your and you said in [the] hatred of Yahweh us he brought out us from [the] land of Egypt to give us in [the] hand of the Amorite[s] to destroy us.
28 Sizakwenyukela ngaphi? Abafowethu benze inhliziyo yethu iphele amandla besithi: Abantu bakhulu bade kulathi; imizi mikhulu, ibiyelwe ngemithangala efika emazulwini; futhi-ke sibonile khona amadodana amaAnaki.
Where? - [are] we going up countrymen our they have made melt heart our saying [the] people [is] great and lofty more than us [the] cities [are] large and fortified in the heavens and also [the] descendants of [the] Anakites we saw there.
29 Ngasengisithi kini: Lingatshaywa luvalo, libesabe.
And I said to you not you must be terrified! and not you must be afraid! from them.
30 INkosi uNkulunkulu wenu ehamba phambi kwenu, yona izalilwela njengakho konke eyalenzela khona eGibhithe phambi kwamehlo enu,
Yahweh God your [is] the [one who] goes before you he he will fight for you according to all that he did with you in Egypt to eyes your.
31 lenkangala, lapho obone khona ukuthi iNkosi uNkulunkulu wakho yakuthwala njengendoda ithwala indodana yayo, endleleni yonke elahamba ngayo laze lafika kulindawo.
And in the wilderness where you saw that he carried you Yahweh God your just as he carries anyone child his on all the journey which you walked until came you to the place this.
32 Kodwa ngalelilizwi kalikholwanga iNkosi uNkulunkulu wenu
And in the thing this not you [were] trusting in Yahweh God your.
33 eyahamba phambi kwenu endleleni, ukulidingela indawo ukuze limise inkamba, ngomlilo ebusuku, ukulitshengisa indlela elizahamba ngayo, langeyezi emini.
Who went before you on the journey to seek out for you a place to camp you in the fire - night to show you the way which you will go on it and in the cloud by day.
34 Kwathi iNkosi isizwile ilizwi lamazwi enu, yathukuthela yafunga yathi:
And he heard Yahweh [the] sound of words your and he was angry and he swore an oath saying.
35 Isibili kakho kulamadoda alesisizukulwana esibi ozabona ilizwe elihle engafunga ukulinika oyihlo,
If he will see anyone among the men these the generation evil this the land good which I swore to give to ancestors your.
36 ngaphandle kukaKalebi indodana kaJefune; yena uzalibona. Njalo ngizanika kuye ilizwe anyathela kulo, lakubantwana bakhe, ngoba ulandele iNkosi ngokupheleleyo.
Except Caleb [the] son of Jephunneh he he will see it and to him I will give the land which he has trodden on it and to sons his because that he filled after Yahweh.
37 Lami iNkosi yangithukuthelela ngenxa yenu, isithi: Lawe kawuyikungena khona.
Also with me he was angry Yahweh on account of you saying also you not you will go there.
38 UJoshuwa indodana kaNuni oma phambi kwakho, yena uzangena khona; mqinise, ngoba yena uzakwenza uIsrayeli adle ilifa lalo.
Joshua ([the] son of *L(abh)*) Nun who stands before you he he will go there towards him encourage for he he will give as an inheritance it Israel.
39 Labantwanyana benu elalisithi bazakuba yimpango, labantwana benu, abangaziyo lamuhla okuhle lokubi, bona bazangena khona; lakubo ngizalinika, bona-ke bazakudla ilifa lalo.
And little one[s] your who you said plunder he will become and children your who not they know this day good and evil they they will go there towards and to them I will give it and they they will take possession of it.
40 Kodwa lina ziphendukeleni, lisuke liye enkangala, indlela yoLwandle oluBomvu.
And you turn yourselves and set out the wilderness towards [the] way of [the] sea of reed[s].
41 Laseliphendula lisithi kimi: Sonile eNkosini; thina sizakwenyuka siyekulwa, njengakho konke iNkosi uNkulunkulu wethu eyasilaya khona. Selihlomile, ngulowo lalowo isikhali sakhe sempi, lacabanga ukuthi kulula ukwenyukela entabeni.
And you answered - and you said to me we have sinned to Yahweh we we will go up and we will fight according to all that he has commanded us Yahweh God our and you girded on everyone [the] weapons of war his and you regarded as easy to go up the hill country towards.
42 INkosi yasisithi kimi: Tshono kubo: Lingenyuki, lingalwi, ngoba kangikho phakathi kwenu, hlezi litshaywe phambi kwezitha zenu.
And he said Yahweh to me say to them not you must go up and not you must fight for not I [will be] in midst your and not you will be defeated before enemies your.
43 Ngasengikhuluma kini, kodwa kalilalelanga, lavukela umlomo weNkosi, laqholoza lenyukela entabeni.
And I spoke to you and not you listened and you rebelled against [the] mouth of Yahweh and you acted presumptuously and you went up the hill country towards.
44 Kwathi amaAmori ayehlala entabeni leyo aphuma ukumelana lani, alixotsha njengokwenziwa zinyosi, alihlakaza eSeyiri, kwaze kwaba seHorma.
And he came out the Amorite[s] who was dwelling in the hill country that to meet you and they pursued you just as they do bees and they scattered you in Seir to Hormah.
45 Laselibuya, lakhala inyembezi phambi kweNkosi, kodwa iNkosi kayilizwanga ilizwi lenu, kayibekanga indlebe kini.
And you returned and you wept before Yahweh and not he listened Yahweh to voice your and not he gave ear to you.
46 Laselihlala eKadeshi insuku ezinengi, njengensuku elahlala ngazo.
And you remained at Kadesh days many like the days which you remained.
