Dhuteronomi 27
1 Zvino Mozisi navakuru veIsraeri vakarayira vanhu vachiti, “Chengetai mirayiro iyi yose yandinokupai nhasi.
Moses and the Israelite elders of Israel gave these instructions to the people: Keep all the commandments I am giving you today.
2 Kana muchinge mayambuka Jorodhani muchipinda munyika yamuri kupiwa naJehovha Mwari wenyu, munofanira kumisa mabwe makuru mugoapenda nesuko.
The day you cross the Jordan into the country the Lord your God is giving you, set up some large stones and paint them with whitewash.
3 Mugonyora pamusoro pawo mashoko ose nomurayiro uyu kana muchinge mayambuka mhiri kuti mupinde munyika yamuri kupiwa naJehovha Mwari wenyu, nyika inoyerera mukaka nouchi, sezvamakavimbiswa naJehovha, iye Mwari wamadzibaba enyu.
Then write all these laws on them once you've crossed over to enter the country that the Lord your God is giving you, a land flowing with milk and honey, just as the Lord, the God of your forefathers, promised you.
4 Zvino kana muchinge mayambuka Jorodhani, misai mabwe aya paGomo reEbhari, sezvandakurayirai nhasi, mugoapenda nesuko.
After you've crossed the Jordan, you are to set up these stones on Mount Ebal, having painted them with whitewash, as I've ordered you to do today.
5 Muvake aritari yaJehovha Mwari wenyu ipapo, aritari yamabwe. Musashandisa simbi pakumisa mabwe aya.
Also build a stone altar there to the Lord your God, an altar of stones. Don't use any stone tools in its construction.
6 Muvake aritari yaJehovha Mwari wenyu namabwe asina kuvezwa uye mugobayirapo kuna Jehovha Mwari wenyu zvipiriso zvinopiswa.
Build the altar of the Lord your God with uncut stones and sacrifice burnt offerings on it to the Lord your God.
7 Mubayire zvipiriso zvokuwadzana ipapo, muzvidye muchipembera pamberi paJehovha Mwari wenyu.
That is also where you are to sacrifice and eat your peace offerings, celebrating in the presence of the Lord your God.
8 Uye munofanira kunyora mashoko aya ose omurayiro pamabwe amakamisa aya zvinonyatsoonekwa.”
Write all these laws clearly on the stones.
9 Ipapo Mozisi navaprista vanova vaRevhi, vakataura kuvaIsraeri vose vakati, “Nyararai imi Israeri, uye muteerere! Iye zvino mava rudzi rwaJehovha Mwari wenyu.
Moses and the Levitical priests gave these orders to all the Israelites: “Be quiet, people of Israel, and listen! Today you have become the people of the Lord your God.
10 Naizvozvo teererai Jehovha Mwari wenyu uye mugotevera mirayiro nemitemo yandinokupai nhasi.”
So obey what the Lord your God tells you, and follow commandments and regulations that I'm giving you today.”
11 Pazuva rimwe chetero Mozisi akarayira vanhu achiti:
That day Moses gave these orders to the people:
12 Kana muchinge mayambuka Jorodhani, aya ndiwo marudzi anofanira kundomira pamusoro peGomo reGerizimu kuti varopafadze vanhu: Simeoni, Revhi, Judha, Isakari, Josefa naBhenjamini.
After you've crossed the Jordan, the following tribes are to stand on Mount Gerizim to bless the people: Simeon, Levi, Judah, Issachar, Joseph, and Benjamin.
13 Uye marudzi aya ndiwo achamira paGomo reEbhari kuti vadanidzire kutuka: Rubheni, Gadhi, Asheri, Zebhuruni, Dhani, naNafutari.
The following tribes are to stand on Mount Ebal for the curse: Reuben, Gad, Asher, Zebulun, Dan, and Naphtali.
14 VaRevhi vachataura kuvanhu vose veIsraeri nenzwi guru vachiti:
Then the Levites will shout in a loud voice so Israelite can hear:
