Dhuteronomi 5
1 Mozisi akadana vaIsraeri vose, akati: Inzwai imi vaIsraeri, mitemo nemirayiro yandinotaura muchinzwa nhasi. Idzidzei muchenjerere kuti muiteerere
And Moses called all Israel, and said to them: Hear, O Israel, the ceremonies and judgments, which I speak in your ears this day: learn them, and fulfill them in work.
2 Jehovha Mwari wedu akaita sungano nesu paHorebhi.
The Lord our God made a covenant with us in Horeb.
3 Jehovha haana kuita sungano iyi namadzibaba edu, asi akaiita nesu, nesu tose vapenyu nhasi pano.
He made not the covenant with our fathers, but with us, who are now present and living.
4 Jehovha akataura nemi chiso nechiso ari mukati memoto pagomo.
He spoke to us face to face in the mount out of the midst of fire.
5 Panguva iyo ndakanga ndimire pakati paJehovha nemi kuti ndizivise kwamuri shoko raJehovha, nokuti makanga muchitya moto mukasakwira mugomo. Uye iye akati:
I was the mediator and stood between the Lord and you at that time, to shew you his words, for you feared the fire, and went not up into the mountain, and he said:
6 “Ndini Jehovha Mwari wako akakubudisa kubva munyika yeIjipiti, munyika youranda.
I am the Lord thy God, who brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.
7 “Usava navamwe vamwari kunze kwangu.
Thou shalt not have strange gods in my sight.
8 Usazviitira mufananidzo wechinhu chipi zvacho chiri kudenga kumusoro kana panyika pasi kana pasi mumvura.
Thou shalt not make to thyself a graven thing, nor the likeness of any things, that are in heaven above, or that are in the earth beneath, or that abide in the waters under the earth.
9 Usazvipfugamira kana kuzvinamata; nokuti ini, Jehovha Mwari wako, ndiri Mwari ane godo, ndinoranga vana nokuda kwechivi chamadzibaba kusvikira kurudzi rwechitatu norwechina rwaavo vanondivenga,
Thou shalt not adore them, and thou shalt not serve them. For I am the Lord thy God, a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon their children unto the third and fourth generation, to them that hate me,
10 asi ndichiratidza rudo kune chiuru chemarudzi avanondida, vanochengeta mirayiro yangu.
And shewing mercy unto many thousands, to them that love me, and keep my commandments.
11 Usareva zita raJehovha Mwari wako pasina, nokuti Jehovha haangaregi kupa mhosva ani naani anoreva zita rake pasina.
Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord thy God in vain: for he shall not be unpunished that taketh his name upon a vain thing.
12 Chengeta zuva reSabata rive dzvene, sezvawakarayirwa naJehovha Mwari wako.
Observe the day of the sabbath, to sanctify it, as the Lord thy God hath commanded thee.
13 Ubate basa mazuva matanhatu, nokuita basa rako rose,
Six days shalt thou labour, and shalt do all thy works.
14 asi zuva rechinomwe iSabata kuna Jehovha Mwari wako. Nomusi uyo usabata basa ripi zvaro, kunyange iwe, kana mwanakomana wako, kana mwanasikana wako, uye murandarume kana murandakadzi wako, nenzombe yako kana mbongoro yako kana chimwe chezvipfuwo zvako, nomutorwa ari mukati mamasuo ako, kuitira kuti murandarume nomurandakadzi wako azorore sewe.
The seventh is the day of the sabbath, that is, the rest of the Lord thy God. Thou shalt not do any work therein, thou nor thy son nor thy daughter, nor thy manservant nor thy maidservant, nor thy ox, nor thy ass, nor any of thy beasts, nor the stranger that is within thy gates: that thy manservant and thy maidservant may rest, even as thyself.
15 Murangarire kuti imi maimbova varanda munyika yeIjipiti uye kuti Jehovha Mwari wenyu akakubudisai nechanza chine simba noruoko rwakatambanudzwa. Naizvozvo Jehovha Mwari wako anokurayira kuti uchengete zuva reSabata.
Remember that thou also didst serve in Egypt, and the Lord thy God brought thee out from thence with a strong hand, and a stretched out arm. Therefore hath he commanded thee that thou shouldst observe the sabbath day.
16 Kudza baba vako namai vako, sezvawakarayirwa naJehovha Mwari wako, kuti mazuva ako ave mazhinji uye kuti zvigokuitira zvakanaka panyika yaunopiwa naJehovha Mwari wako.
Honour thy father and mother, as the Lord thy God hath commanded thee, that thou mayst live a long time, and it may be well with thee in the land, which the Lord thy God will give thee.
17 Usauraya.
Thou shalt not kill.
18 Usaita upombwe.
Neither shalt thou commit adultery.
19 Usaba.
And thou shalt not steal.
20 Usapupura nhema pamusoro pomuvakidzani wako.
Neither shalt thou bear false witness against thy neighbour.
21 Usachiva mudzimai womuvakidzani wako. Usachochora imba kana munda womuvakidzani wako, muranda kana murandakadzi wake, nzombe kana mbongoro kana chimwe chinhu chomuvakidzani wako.”
Thou shalt not covet thy neighbour’s wife: nor his house, nor his field, nor his manservant, nor his maidservant, nor his ox, nor his ass, nor any thing that is his.
22 Iyi ndiyo mirayiro yakataurwa naJehovha nenzwi guru kuungano yenyu yose pagomo paya ari mukati memoto, mugore nerima guru, uye haana kuwedzera mamwe. Ipapo akaanyora pamahwendefa maviri amabwe ndokuapa kwandiri.
These words the Lord spoke to all the multitude of you in the mountain, out of the midst of the fire and the cloud, and the darkness, with a loud voice, adding nothing more: and he wrote them in two tables of stone, which he delivered unto me.
23 Pamakanzwa inzwi richibva mukati merima, negomo richipfuta nomoto, varume vose vanotungamira marudzi enyu, navakuru venyu vakauya kwandiri.
But you, after you heard the voice out of the midst of the darkness, and saw the mountain burn, came to me, all the princes of the tribes and the elders, and you said:
24 Uye makati, “Jehovha Mwari wedu atiratidza kubwinya kwake noukuru hwake, tikanzwa inzwi rake richibva mumoto. Nhasi taona kuti munhu anogona kurarama kunyange dai Mwari akataura naye.
Behold the Lord our God hath shewn us his majesty and his greatness, we have heard his voice out of the midst of the fire, and have proved this day that God speaking with man, man hath lived.
25 Asi zvino, tingafireiko? Uyu moto mukuru uchatiparadza, uye tichafa kana tikaramba tichinzwa inzwi raJehovha Mwari wedu.
Why shall we die therefore, and why shall this exceeding great Are consume us: for if we hear the voice of the Lord our God any more, we shall die.
26 Nokuti ndianiko munhu anofa akambonzwa inzwi raMwari mupenyu achitaura ari mumoto, sesu, uye akararama?
What is all flesh, that it should hear the voice of the living God, who speaketh out of the midst of the fire, as we have heard, and be able to live?
27 Swedera undonzwa zvose zvicharehwa naJehovha Mwari wedu. Zvino iwe ugozotiudza zvose hazvo zvauchaudzwa naJehovha Mwari wedu. Tichazvinzwa tigozviita.”
Approach thou rather: and hear all things that the Lord our God shall say to thee, and thou shalt speak to us, and we will hear and will do them.
28 Jehovha akakunzwai pamakataura kwandiri uye Jehovha akati kwandiri, “Ndanzwa zvataurwa navanhu kwauri. Zvose zvavataura zvakanaka.
And when the Lord had heard this, he said to me: I have heard the voice of the words of this people, which they spoke to thee: they have spoken all things well.
29 Haiwa, dai mwoyo yavo yainditya nokuchengeta zvose zvandakarayira nguva dzose, kuti zvivaitire zvakanaka ivo navana vavo nokusingaperi!
Who shall give them to have such a mind, to fear me, and to keep all my commandments at all times, that it may be well with them and with their children for ever?
30 “Enda undovaudza kuti vadzokere kumatende avo.
Go and say to them: Return into your tents.
31 Asi iwe mira pano pandiri kuti ndikupe zvandakarayira, mitemo nemirayiro yose yaunofanira kuvadzidzisa kuti vazviite panyika yandinovapa kuti ive yavo.”
But stand thou here with me, and I will speak to thee all my commandments, and ceremonies and judgments: which thou shalt teach them, that they may do them in the land, which I will give them for a possession.
32 Saka chenjerai kuti muite zvamakarayirwa naJehovha Mwari wenyu; musatsauka kurudyi kana kuruboshwe.
Keep therefore and do the things which the Lord God hath commanded you: you shall not go aside neither to the right hand, nor to the left.
33 Mufambe nenzira yose yamakarayirwa naJehovha Mwari wenyu, kuti murarame nokubudirira uye kuti mazuva enyu ave mazhinji panyika iyo ichava yenyu.
But you shall walk in the way that the Lord your God hath commanded, that you may live, and it may be well with you, and your days may be long in the land of your possession.
