2 “Uti kuvaIsraeri, ‘MuIsraeri upi noupi kana mutorwa upi noupi agere muIsraeri achapa vana vake kuna Moreki anofanira kuurayiwa. Vanhu vomunyika yake vanofanira kumutaka namabwe.
“Tshela abako-Israyeli uthi: ‘Loba ngubani kwabako-Israyeli kumbe owezizweni ohlala kini onikela abantwana bakhe kunkulunkulu uMoleki, kumele abulawe. Izakhamizi kazimkhande ngamatshe.
3 Ndichanangana nomunhu iyeye uye ndichamubvisa pakati pavanhu vokwake, nokuti, nokuda kwokupa vana vake kuna Moreki, asvibisa nzvimbo yangu tsvene uye amhura zita rangu dzvene.
Mina ngizamdela lowomuntu, ngimkhuphe ebantwini bakibo; ngoba nxa enikele ngabantwabakhe kuMoleki, usengcolise indlu yami engcwele, wahlambaza lebizo lami elingcwele.
4 Kana vanhu vomunyika yake vakashaya hanya kana munhu uyu achipa mumwe wavana vake kuna Moreki vakasamuuraya,
Nxa izakhamizi zendawo zingangamnanzi lowomuntu enikela umntanakhe kuMoleki zingambulali,
5 ndichanangana nomunhu uyo nemhuri yake, uye ndichamubvisa pakati pavanhu vokwake, iye pamwe chete navose vanomutevera pakuita ufeve naMoreki.
mina ngizamhlamukela lowomuntu labomuzi wakhe, ngibakhuphe ebantwini bakibo, yena kanye labo bonke abahlanganyela laye njengeziphingi kuMoleki.
6 “‘Ndichanangana nomunhu uyo achaenda kumasvikiro, nokuvadzimu achiita ufeve nokuvatevera uye ndichamubvisa pakati pavanhu vokwake.
Ngizamhlamukela lowo oya ezangomeni lezanuseni njengesiphingi sazo, ngokulandelana lazo. Ngizamkhupha kwabakibo.
7 “‘Zvitsaurei mugove vatsvene nokuti ndini Jehovha Mwari wenyu.
Zingcweliseni libengcwele ngoba mina nginguThixo uNkulunkulu wenu.
8 Chengetai mitemo yangu mugoitevera. Ndini Jehovha anokuitai vatsvene.
Gcinani izimiso zami lizilandele. Mina nginguThixo olenza libengcwele.
9 “‘Ani naani anotuka baba kana mai vake anofanira kuurayiwa. Atuka baba kana mai vake uye ropa rake richava pamusoro pake.
Lowo othuka uyise loba unina kabulawe. Usethuke uyise loba unina ngakho usefanele ukufa.
10 “‘Kana mumwe akaita upombwe nomukadzi womumwe murume, kana nomukadzi womuvakidzani wake, vose murume mhombwe nomukadzi chifeve vanofanira kuurayiwa.
Nxa indoda ifeba lomfazi womunye, umfazi kamakhelwane, kababulawe bobabili isiphingi lesiphingikazi leso.
11 “‘Kana murume akavata nomukadzi wababa vake azvidza baba vake. Vose murume nomukadzi vanofanira kuurayiwa. Ropa ravo richava pamusoro pavo.
Nxa indoda ilala lomfazi kayise, isiyembule ubunqunu bukayise. Leyondoda lonina lowo kababulawe. Bafanele ukufa.
12 “‘Kana mumwe akavata nomuroora wake, vose vari vaviri vanofanira kuurayiwa, zvavaita kunyangadza kukuru; ropa ravo richava pamusoro pavo.
Nxa indoda ilala lomalokazana wayo, kababulawe bobabili. Lokho asebekwenzile kulihlazo. Bafanele ukufa.
13 “‘Kana mumwe akavata nomurume seanovata nomukadzi vose vari vaviri vaita zvinonyangadza. Vanofanira kuurayiwa. Ropa ravo richava pamusoro pavo.
Nxa indoda ilala lenye indoda ingathi ilala lomfazi, bobabili benze amanyala. Kababulawe. Bafanele ukufa.
14 “‘Kana mumwe akawana mukadzi pamwe chete namai vake, zvakaipa. Vose iye naivo vanofanira kupiswa mumoto kuitira kuti pasawanikwe kuipa pakati penyu.
Nxa indoda ithatha umfazi, ithathe lonina, kubi lokho. Yona indoda labesifazane labo kabatshiswe ngomlilo ukuze kungabi lokuxhwala phakathi kwenu.
15 “‘Kana murume akavata nemhuka anofanira kuurayiwa uye munofanira kuuraya mhuka yacho.
Nxa indoda iphinga lesifuyo, kayibulawe, lesifuyo leso sibulawe.
16 “‘Kana mukadzi akaswedera kumhuka kuti avate nayo, urayai zvose mukadzi nemhuka yacho. Vanofanira kuurayiwa; ropa ravo richava pamusoro pavo.
Nxa owesifazane ehahabela isifuyo aphinge laso, mbulaleni owesifazane lowo kanye lesifuyo leso sibulawe. Kumele kubulawe kokubili ngoba konke kulomlandu.
17 “‘Kana murume akawana hanzvadzi yake mwanasikana wababa vake, kana kuti wamai vake, uye vakavata vose, ichi chinyadziso. Vanofanira kubviswa pamberi pameso avanhu vokwavo. Azvidza hanzvadzi yake uye achava nemhosva.
Nxa indoda ithatha udadewabo, indodakazi kayise loba ekanina balale bonke, kulihlazo. Kabaxotshwe kwabakibo. Isinqunule udadewabo ngakho isibelomlandu.
18 “‘Kana murume akavata nomukadzi panguva yokuva kwake kumwedzi akasangana naye, afumura chaipo panobva kuyerera kwake, mukadziwo azvifumura. Vose vari vaviri vanofanira kubviswa pavanhu vokwavo.
Nxa indoda ilala lowesifazane esemfuleni, isinqunule umthombo walowomfula, lowesifazane lowo usewembulile. Bobabili kabaxotshwe ebantwini bakibo.
19 “‘Usavata namainini kana vatete vako nokuti uku kuzvidza hama yapedyo; mose muri vaviri muchava nemhosva.
Ungalali lodadewabo kanyoko loba okayihlo, ngoba kuyikunqunula isihlobo segazi. Lobabili lizakuba lomlandu.
20 “‘Kana murume akavata nomukadzi wababamunini vake azvidza babamunini vake. Vachava nemhosva; vachafa vasina vana.
Nxa umuntu elala lomkamfowabo kayise, usenqunule umfowabo kayise. Balomlandu. Bazakufa bengelamntwana.
21 “‘Kana murume akawana mukadzi womukoma kana womununʼuna ichi chinhu chisina kunaka, azvidza mukoma kana mununʼuna wake. Vachashaya vana.
Nxa indoda ithatha umfazi womfowabo, lokho kuyisenzo sokungcola; usembule ubunqunu bomfowabo. Bazakufa bengelamntwana.
22 “‘Chengetai mirayiro yangu nemitemo yangu mugoitevera kuitira kuti nyika yandiri kukuendesai kwairi irege kukurutsirai kunze.
Gcinani zonke izimiso zami lemithetho yami, liyilandele ukuze lelolizwe engililethe ukuba lihlale khona lingalikhafuli.
23 Hamufaniri kutevera tsika dzendudzi dzandichadzinga pamberi penyu. Nokuti dzakaita zvinhu zvose izvi, ndikadzisema.
Lingabolandela amasiko ezizwe engizazixotsha phambi kwenu. Ngoba bazenza zonke lezizinto ngabenyanya.
24 Asi ndakati kwamuri, “Muchatora nyika yavo. Ndichaipa kwamuri senhaka, nyika inoerera mukaka nouchi.” Ndini Jehovha Mwari wenyu uyo akakutsaurai kubva kune dzimwe ndudzi.
Kodwa ngathi kini, “Lizalithumba ilizwe labo; ngizalipha lona libe yilifa lenu, ilizwe eligeleza uchago loluju.” Mina yimi uThixo uNkulunkulu wenu olenze lehluka kwabezizwe.
25 “‘Naizvozvo unofanira kuisa mutsauko pakati pemhuka dzakachena nedzisina kuchena uye pakati peshiri dzakachena nedzisina kuchena. Musazvisvibisa nemhuka ipi zvayo kana shiri kana chimwe chinhu chinofamba pavhu, idzo dzandakatsaura sedzisina kuchena kwamuri.
Ngakho-ke kumele lazi umahluko phakathi kwezinyamazana ezihlanzekileyo lezingahlanzekanga; kanjalo lezinyoni. Lingazingcolisi ngezinyamazana loba ngezinyoni loba ngani ehuquzela phansi, lezo engiziphawule ngathi zingcolile kini.
26 Munofanira kuva vatsvene kwandiri nokuti ini Jehovha ndiri mutsvene. Ndakakutsaurai kubva kundudzi kuti muve vangu ndoga.
Kumele libengcwele kimi ngoba mina Thixo ngingcwele njalo ngilahlukanisile kwabezizwe ukuthi libe ngabami.
27 “‘Murume kana mukadzi svikiro kana anoita zvemidzimu pakati penyu anofanira kuurayiwa. Munofanira kuvataka namabwe. Ropa ravo richava pamusoro pavo.’”
Indoda loba umfazi ovumisayo loba oyisanuse phakathi kwenu, kabulawe. Bakhandeni ngamatshe. Yindaba yabo.’”
