Dhuteronomi 25
1 Kana vanhu vane gakava, vanofanira kuenda kudare uye vatongi vachatonga nyaya iyi, vachiruramisira asina mhosva nokupa mhosva uyo akatadza.
Uba kukhona ukuxabana phakathi kwabantu, baye esahlulelweni, ukuthi babahlulele, bazalungisisa olungileyo, balahle olecala.
2 Kana munhu ane mhosva achifanira kurohwa, mutongi anofanira kumuti arare pasi agoita kuti arohwe pamberi pake neshamhu dzakafanira mhosva yake.
Kuzakuthi-ke uba olecala efanele ukutshaywa, umahluleli uzamlalisa phansi, atshaywe phambi kwakhe, njengokulingene icala lakhe, ngokwenani.
3 Asi haafaniri kupiwa shamhu dzinodarika makumi mana. Kana akarohwa zvakapfurikidza mwero, hama yako inenge yazvidzwa pamberi pako.
Angatshaywa imivimvinya engamatshumi amane, angengezeleli, hlezi nxa esedlule ukumtshaya okwedlula le ngemivimvinya eminengi, kuze kuthi umfowenu ayangeke emehlweni akho.
4 Usasunga muromo wenzombe kana ichipura zviyo.
Ungayifaki isayeke inkabi nxa ibhula.
5 Kana hama dzichigara pamwe chete mumwe wavo akafa asina mwanakomana, chirikadzi yake haifaniri kuwanikwa kunze kwemhuri. Hama yomurume wake inofanira kumutora nokumuwana uye agoita zvinofanira kuitwa nehama yomurume wake kwaari.
Uba izelamani zihlala ndawonye, lomunye wazo esifa, engelandodana, umfazi wofileyo kangendeli kowemzini ongaphandle; umfowabo wendoda yakhe uzangena kuye, amthathe abe ngumkakhe, enze kuye imfanelo yomfowabo wendoda.
6 Mwanakomana wokutanga waachabereka anofanira kutora zita rehama yake yakafa kuitira kuti zita rake rirege kudzimwa muIsraeri.
Kuzakuthi-ke izibulo alizalayo lizakuma ebizweni lomfowabo ofileyo, ukuze ibizo lakhe lingacitshwa koIsrayeli.
7 Asi, kana munhu asingadi kuwana mukadzi wehama yake, mukadzi achaenda kuvakuru pasuo reguta agoti, “Hama yomurume wangu yaramba kumutsa zita romukoma wake muIsraeri. Haadi kuita zvinofanira kuitwa nehama yomurume kwandiri.”
Uba umuntu engathandi ukuthatha umkamfowabo, umkamfowabo uzakwenyukela esangweni kubadala athi: Umfowabo wendoda yami uyala ukuvusela umfowabo ibizo koIsrayeli; kafuni ukwenza kimi imfanelo yomfowabo wendoda.
8 Ipapo vakuru veguta romurume uyu vanofanira kumudana vataure naye. Kana akaramba achiti, “Handidi zvangu kumuwana,”
Abadala bomuzi wakhe bazambiza-ke, bakhulume laye. Uba eqinisa esithi: Kangithandi ukumthatha;
9 chirikadzi yehama yake inofanira kuenda kwaari pamberi pavakuru, agomubvisa imwe yeshangu dzake, uye agomusvipira mate kumeso achiti, “Izvi ndizvo zvinoitwa kumurume anoramba kuvaka imba yomukoma wake.”
umkamfowabo uzasondela-ke kuye phambi kwamehlo abadala, akhuphe inyathela lakhe enyaweni lwakhe, amkhafulele ebusweni, aphendule, athi: Kuzakwenziwa njalo kulowomuntu ongayakhiyo indlu yomfowabo.
10 Imba yomurume uyu ichazivikanwa muIsraeri nezita rokuti Imba yoMurume Akabviswa Shangu Yake.
Lebizo lakhe lizakuthiwa koIsrayeli: Indlu yolenyathela elakhutshwayo.
11 Kana varume vaviri vachirwa ipapo mukadzi womumwe wavo akauya kuzonunura murume wake pane anomurwisa, uye akaswedera akabata murume uya nhengo dzake,
Nxa amadoda esilwa, omunye lomunye, kusondele umfazi wenye ukuthi ayikhulule indoda yakhe esandleni soyitshayayo, elule isandla sakhe ayibambe ngamaphambili,
12 munofanira kugura ruoko rwake. Musamunzwira tsitsi.
usiqume isandla sakhe, ilihlo lakho lingabi lasihawu.
13 Usava nezviyereso zviviri zvisina kuenzana muhomwe yako, chimwe chinorema, chimwe chakareruka.
Ungabi lamatshe okulinganisa ehlukeneyo esikhwameni sakho, elikhulu lelincinyane.
14 Usava nezvipimiso zviviri zvakasiyana mumba mako, chimwe chikuru, chimwe chiduku.
Ungabi lama-efa ehlukeneyo endlini yakho, esikhulu lesincinyane.
15 Unofanira kuva nezviereso nezvipimiso zvakanaka uye zvechokwadi kuitira kuti ugorarama mazuva mazhinji munyika yauri kupiwa naJehovha Mwari wako.
Woba lelitshe lokulinganisa elipheleleyo lelilungileyo, woba le-efa epheleleyo lelungileyo, ukuze insuku zakho zelulwe elizweni iNkosi uNkulunkulu wakho ekunika lona.
16 Nokuti Jehovha Mwari wako anonyangadzwa nomunhu anoita zvinhu izvi, munhu upi zvake, anoita zvinhu nokusatendeka.
Ngoba wonke owenza izinto ezinje, wonke owenza ukungalungi, uyisinengiso eNkosini uNkulunkulu wakho.
17 Murangarire zvamakaitirwa navaAmareki parwendo rwenyu pamakabuda kubva muIjipiti.
Khumbula lokho uAmaleki akwenza kuwe endleleni ekuphumeni kwenu eGibhithe,
18 Pamakanga maziya uye maneta, vakasangana nemi parwendo rwenyu vakauraya vose vakanga vachisaririra shure; vakanga vasingatyi Mwari.
ukuthi wakuhlangabeza endleleni, watshaya phakathi kwakho ababebuthakathaka emva kwakho, usudiniwe usuphele amandla; kanti kamesabanga uNkulunkulu.
19 Kana Jehovha Mwari wenyu akupai zvose kubva kuvavengi vakakupoteredzai munyika yaari kukupai kuti ive yenyu senhaka, munofanira kudzima kurangarirwa kwaAmareki kubva pasi pedenga. Musazokanganwa!
Ngakho kuzakuthi, nxa iNkosi uNkulunkulu wakho isikuphumuzile kuzo zonke izitha zakho inhlangothi zonke, elizweni iNkosi uNkulunkulu wakho ekunika lona libe yilifa ukudla ilifa lalo, uzakwesula ukukhunjulwa kukaAmaleki ngaphansi kwamazulu; ungakhohlwa.
