< Dhuteronomi 5 >
1 Mozisi akadana vaIsraeri vose, akati: Inzwai imi vaIsraeri, mitemo nemirayiro yandinotaura muchinzwa nhasi. Idzidzei muchenjerere kuti muiteerere
Then Moses called all Israiel, and saide vnto them, Heare, O Israel, the ordinances and the lawes which I propose to you this day, that yee may learne them, and take heede to obserue them.
2 Jehovha Mwari wedu akaita sungano nesu paHorebhi.
The Lord our God made a couenant with vs in Horeb.
3 Jehovha haana kuita sungano iyi namadzibaba edu, asi akaiita nesu, nesu tose vapenyu nhasi pano.
The Lord made not this couenant with our fathers onely, but with vs, euen with vs all here aliue this day.
4 Jehovha akataura nemi chiso nechiso ari mukati memoto pagomo.
The Lord talked with you face to face in the Mount, out of the middes of the fire.
5 Panguva iyo ndakanga ndimire pakati paJehovha nemi kuti ndizivise kwamuri shoko raJehovha, nokuti makanga muchitya moto mukasakwira mugomo. Uye iye akati:
(At that time I stoode betweene the Lord and you, to declare vnto you ye word of the Lord: for ye were afraid at the sight of the fire, and went not vp into the mount, and he said,
6 “Ndini Jehovha Mwari wako akakubudisa kubva munyika yeIjipiti, munyika youranda.
I am the Lord thy God, which haue brought thee out of the lande of Egypt, from the house of bondage.
7 “Usava navamwe vamwari kunze kwangu.
Thou shalt haue none other gods before my face.
8 Usazviitira mufananidzo wechinhu chipi zvacho chiri kudenga kumusoro kana panyika pasi kana pasi mumvura.
Thou shalt make thee no grauen image or any likenesse of that that is in heauen aboue, or which is in the earth beneath, or that is in the waters vnder 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 neither bowe thy selfe vnto them, nor serue them: for I the Lord thy God am a ielous God, visiting the iniquitie of the fathers vpon the children, euen vnto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me:
10 asi ndichiratidza rudo kune chiuru chemarudzi avanondida, vanochengeta mirayiro yangu.
And shewing mercie vnto thousandes of them that loue me, and keepe my commandements.
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 vaine: for the Lord will not holde him giltlesse that taketh his Name in vaine.
12 Chengeta zuva reSabata rive dzvene, sezvawakarayirwa naJehovha Mwari wako.
Keepe the Sabbath day, to sanctifie it, as the Lord thy God hath commanded thee.
13 Ubate basa mazuva matanhatu, nokuita basa rako rose,
Sixe dayes thou shalt labour, and shalt doe all thy worke:
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.
But the seuenth day is the Sabbath of the Lord thy God: thou shalt not doe any worke therein, thou, nor thy sonne, nor thy daughter, nor thy man seruant, nor thy mayd, nor thine oxe, nor thine asse, neither any of thy cattel, nor the stranger that is within thy gates: that thy man seruant and thy mayde may rest aswell as thou.
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.
For, remember that thou wast a seruant in the land of Egypt, and that the Lord thy God brought thee out thence by a mightie hand and a stretched out arme: therefore the Lord thy God commanded thee to obserue 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 thy mother, as the Lord thy God hath comanded thee, that thy dayes may be prolonged, and that it may go well with thee vpon the land, which the Lord thy God giueth thee.
Neither shalt thou commit adulterie.
Neither shalt thou steale.
20 Usapupura nhema pamusoro pomuvakidzani wako.
Neither shalt thou beare false witnesse 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.”
Neither shalt thou couet thy neighbours wife, neither shalt thou desire thy neighbours house, his fielde, nor his man seruant, nor his mayd, his oxe, nor his asse, nor ought that thy neighbour hath.
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 wordes the Lord spake vnto all your multitude in the mount out of the mids of the fire, the cloude and the darkenes, with a great voyce, and added no more thereto: and wrote them vpon two tables of stone, and deliuered them vnto me.
23 Pamakanzwa inzwi richibva mukati merima, negomo richipfuta nomoto, varume vose vanotungamira marudzi enyu, navakuru venyu vakauya kwandiri.
And when ye heard the voyce out of the middes of the darkenes, (for the mountaine did burne with fire) then ye came to me, all the chiefe of your tribes, and your Elders:
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.
And ye sayd, Beholde, the Lord our God hath shewed vs his glory and his greatnes, and we haue heard his voyce out of the middes of the fire: we haue seene this day that God doeth talke with man, and he liueth.
25 Asi zvino, tingafireiko? Uyu moto mukuru uchatiparadza, uye tichafa kana tikaramba tichinzwa inzwi raJehovha Mwari wedu.
Now therefore, why should we dye? for this great fire wil consume vs: if we heare ye voyce of the Lord our God any more, we shall dye.
26 Nokuti ndianiko munhu anofa akambonzwa inzwi raMwari mupenyu achitaura ari mumoto, sesu, uye akararama?
For what flesh was there euer, that heard the voyce of the liuing God speaking out of the middes of the fire as we haue, and liued?
27 Swedera undonzwa zvose zvicharehwa naJehovha Mwari wedu. Zvino iwe ugozotiudza zvose hazvo zvauchaudzwa naJehovha Mwari wedu. Tichazvinzwa tigozviita.”
Go thou neere and heare all that the Lord our God saith: and declare thou vnto vs all that the Lord our God saith vnto thee, and we will heare it, and doe it.
28 Jehovha akakunzwai pamakataura kwandiri uye Jehovha akati kwandiri, “Ndanzwa zvataurwa navanhu kwauri. Zvose zvavataura zvakanaka.
Then the Lord heard the voyce of your wordes, when ye spake vnto me: and the Lord sayd vnto me, I haue heard the voyce of ye wordes of this people, which they haue spoken vnto thee: they haue well sayd, all that they haue spoken.
29 Haiwa, dai mwoyo yavo yainditya nokuchengeta zvose zvandakarayira nguva dzose, kuti zvivaitire zvakanaka ivo navana vavo nokusingaperi!
Oh that there were such an heart in them to feare me, and to keepe all my commandements alway: that it might go well with them, and with their children for euer.
30 “Enda undovaudza kuti vadzokere kumatende avo.
Go, say vnto them, Returne you into your tentes.
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 wil tell thee all the commandements, and the ordinances, and the lawes, which thou shalt teach them: that they may doe them in the land which I giue them to possesse it.
32 Saka chenjerai kuti muite zvamakarayirwa naJehovha Mwari wenyu; musatsauka kurudyi kana kuruboshwe.
Take heede therefore, that ye doe as the Lord your God hath commanded you: turne not aside 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 walke in all the wayes which the Lord your God hath commanded you, that ye may liue, and that it may goe well with you: and that ye may prolong your dayes in the land which ye shall possesse.
