Revhitiko 26

1 “‘Musaita zvifananidzo kana kumisa chifananidzo kana ibwe rinoyera kwamuri, uye musaisa dombo rakavezwa munyika yenyu kuti mukotamire pamberi paro. Ndini Jehovha Mwari wenyu.

Ye shall make yourselves no idols, neither rear you up for yourselves carved image, or statue, nor shall ye set up a figured stone in your land, to bow down unto it; for I am Jehovah your God.

2 “‘Chengetai maSabata angu uye muremekedze nzvimbo yangu tsvene. Ndini Jehovha.

Ye shall observe my sabbaths, and my sanctuary shall ye reverence: I am Jehovah.

3 “‘Kana mukatevera mitemo yangu uye mukachenjerera kuti muteerere mirayiro yangu,

If ye walk in my statutes, and observe my commandments and do them,

4 ndichakutumirai mvura nenguva yayo, uye ivhu richabereka zvirimwa zvaro uye miti yesango ichabereka michero yayo.

then I will give your rain in the season thereof, and the land shall yield its produce, and the trees of the field shall yield their fruit;

5 Kupura kwenyu kuchasvika pakukohwa mazambiringa uye kukohwa mazambiringa kuchasvika pakudyara, uye muchadya zvose zvamunoda uye mugogara makachengetedzeka munyika menyu.

and your threshing shall reach unto the vintage, and the vintage shall reach unto the sowing-time; and ye shall eat your bread to the full, and dwell in your land securely.

6 “‘Ndichapa rugare panyika, uye muchavata pasi pasina achakuvhundutsai. Ndichabvisa zvikara zvesango panyika, uye munondo haungazopfuuri nomunyika yenyu.

And I will give peace in the land, and ye shall lie down, and none shall make you afraid; and I will put away the evil beasts out of the land; and the sword shall not go through your land.

7 Muchadzinganisa vavengi venyu, uye vachawa nomunondo pamberi penyu.

And ye shall chase your enemies, and they shall fall before you by the sword;

8 Vashanu venyu vachadzinganisa zana, uye zana renyu richadzinganisa zviuru gumi uye vavengi venyu vachawa nomunondo pamberi penyu.

and five of you shall chase a hundred, and a hundred of you shall put ten thousand to flight; and your enemies shall fall beside you by the sword.

9 “‘Ndichakutarisai nenyasha uye ndichaita kuti muve nezvibereko uye muwande, uye ndichachengeta sungano yangu nemi.

And I will turn my face towards you and make you fruitful, and multiply you, and establish my covenant with you.

10 Muchange muchiri kudya gohwo regore rakapera pamuchazobvisa kuti muise zvitsva.

And ye shall eat old store, and clear away the old because of the new.

11 Ndichadzika tabhenakeri yangu pakati penyu uye handizokusemai.

And I will set my habitation among you; and my soul shall not abhor you;

12 Ndichafamba pakati penyu ndigova Mwari wenyu, uye muchava vanhu vangu.

and I will walk among you, and will be your God, and ye shall be to me a people.

13 Ndini Jehovha Mwari wenyu, ndakakubudisai kubva munyika yeIjipiti kuti musazova varanda kuvaIjipita zvakare, ndakatyora matanda ejoko renyu ndikakufambisai makati twi.

I am Jehovah your God, who brought you forth out of the land of Egypt, that ye should not be their bondmen; and I have broken the bands of your yoke, and made you walk upright.

14 “‘Asi kana mukasanditeerera uye mukasaita zvose izvi zvandinorayira,

But if ye hearken not unto me, and do not all these commandments,

15 uye mukaramba mitemo yangu, mukasema mirayiro yangu, mukatadza kuzadzisa zvose zvandakarayira, saizvozvo mukaputsa sungano yangu,

and if ye shall despise my statutes, and if your soul shall abhor mine ordinances, so that ye do not all my commandments, that ye break my covenant,

16 ipapo ndichaita izvi kwamuri: Ndichauyisa pamusoro penyu zvinotyisa, zvirwere zvinoparadza nedenda richaparadza meso enyu, uye rigokusvetai upenyu hwenyu. Muchadyarira zviyo zvenyu pasina nokuti vavengi venyu vachazvidya.

I also will do this unto you — I will even appoint over you terror, consumption, and fever, which shall cause the eyes to fail, and the soul to waste away; and ye shall sow your seed in vain, for your enemies shall eat it.

17 Chiso changu chichanangana nemi zvokuti muchakundwa navavengi venyu. Avo vanokuvengai vachakutongai, uye muchatiza kunyange pasina anokudzinganisai.

And I will set my face against you, that ye may be routed before your enemies; they that hate you shall have dominion over you; and ye shall flee when none pursueth you.

18 “‘Kana mukasanditeerera mushure maizvozvi zvose, ndichakurangai kakapetwa kanomwe nokuda kwezvivi zvenyu.

And if for this ye hearken not unto me, I will punish you sevenfold more for your sins,

19 Ndichaputsa kuzvikudza kwenyu ndigoita kuti denga renyu rive sesimbi, uye ivhu riri pasi penyu sendarira.

and I will break the arrogance of your power; and I will make your heaven as iron, and your earth as bronze,

20 Simba renyu richaperera pasina nokuti ivhu renyu harizobereki zvibereko, kana miti yenyika yenyu, michero yayo.

and your strength shall be spent in vain, and your land shall not yield its produce; and the trees of the land shall not yield their fruit.

21 “‘Kana mukaramba muchirwisana neni uye mukaramba kunditeerera, ndichawedzera matambudziko enyu zvakapetwa kanomwe, sezvakafanira zvivi zvenyu.

And if ye walk contrary unto me, and will not hearken unto me, I will bring sevenfold more plagues upon you according to your sins.

22 Ndichatuma zvikara zvesango kuti zvizokurwisai, uye zvichakutorerai vana venyu, zvigoparadza mombe dzenyu zvigokuitai vashoma zvokuti nzira dzenyu dzichasara dzisina vanhu.

And I will send the beasts of the field among you, that they may rob you of your children, and cut off your cattle, and make you few in number; and your streets shall be desolate.

23 “‘Ipapo kana musingadi kudzorwa neni pazvinhu izvi, asi mukaramba muchirwisana neni,

And if ye will not be disciplined by me through these, but walk contrary unto me,

24 ini pachangu ndicharwisana nemi, uye ndichakurangai kakapetwa kanomwe nokuda kwezvivi zvenyu.

then will I also walk contrary unto you, and will smite you, even I, sevenfold for your sins.

25 Uye ndichauyisa munondo wehondo pamusoro penyu kuti unditsivire kuputswa kwesungano. Kana mukatizira mumaguta enyu ndichatumira denda pakati penyu, uye muchaiswa mumaoko avavengi.

And I will bring a sword upon you that avengeth with the vengeance of the covenant, and ye shall be gathered together into your cities, and I will send the pestilence among you; and ye shall be delivered into the hand of the enemy.

26 Kana ndikamisa mugove wenyu wechingwa, vakadzi gumi vachagona kubika chingwa chenyu pachoto chimwe chete, uye vachakanya chingwa chenyu zviri pamwero. Muchadya, asi hamungaguti.

When I break the staff of your bread, ten women shall bake your bread in one oven, and shall deliver you the bread again by weight; and ye shall eat, and not be satisfied.

27 “‘Mushure maizvozvi, mukaramba musinganditeereri asi mukaramba muchienderera mberi nokundirwisa,

And if for this ye hearken not to me, but walk contrary unto me,

28 ipapo mukutsamwa kwangu ndicharwisana nemi, uye ini pachangu ndichakurangai nokuda kwezvivi zvenyu kakapetwa kanomwe.

then I will walk contrary unto you also in fury; and I, even I, will chastise you seven-fold for your sins.

29 Muchadya nyama yavanakomana venyu nenyama yavanasikana venyu.

And ye shall eat the flesh of your sons, and the flesh of your daughters shall ye eat.

30 Ndichaparadza nzvimbo dzenyu dzakakwirira, ndigotemera pasi aritari dzenyu dzezvinonhuhwira uye ndigounganidza zvitunha zvenyu pamusoro pavamwari venyu vasina upenyu, uye ndichakusemai.

And I will lay waste your high places, and cut down your sun-pillars, and cast your carcases upon the carcases of your idols; and my soul shall abhor you.

31 Ndichaita kuti maguta enyu ave matongo uye ndigoparadza nzvimbo dzenyu tsvene, uye handizofariri munhuwi unonhuhwira zvinofadza wezvipiriso zvenyu.

And I will lay waste your cities and desolate your sanctuaries; and I will not smell your sweet odours.

32 Ndichaparadza nyika yenyu, zvokuti vavengi venyu vanogaramo vachashamiswa.

And I will bring the land into desolation; that your enemies who dwell there in may be astonished at it.

33 Ndichakuparadzirai pakati pendudzi uye ndichabudisa munondo wangu ndigokudzingirirai. Nyika yenyu ichaparara, uye maguta enyu achava matongo.

And I will scatter you among the nations, and will draw out the sword after you; and your land shall be desolation, and your cities waste.

34 Ipapo nyika ichafarira makore ayo esabata panguva yose yokuparadzwa kwayo pamunenge muri munyika yavavengi venyu; ipapo nyika ichazorora igofadzwa namasabata ayo.

Then shall the land enjoy its sabbaths all the days of the desolation, when ye are in your enemies' land; then shall the land rest, and enjoy its sabbaths.

35 Panguva yose yokuparadzwa kwayo nyika ichava nezororo rayakashayiwa pamasabata panguva yamakararama mairi.

All the days of the desolation it shall rest, [the days in] which it did not rest on your sabbaths, when ye dwelt therein.

36 “‘Kana vari vamwe venyu vanosara, ndichaita kuti hana dzavo dzizare nokutya munyika dzavavengi vavo zvokuti kurira kweshizha rinopeperetswa nemhepo kuchaita kuti vatize. Vachamhanya vachiwirana sokunge vari kutiza munondo, vachawa kunyange pasina ari kuvadzinganisa.

And as to those that remain of you — I will send faintness into their hearts in the lands of their enemies, that the sound of a driven leaf shall chase them, and they shall flee, as fleeing from a sword; and they shall fall when none pursueth;

37 Vachabonderana sokunge vanotiza munondo, kunyange pasina anovadzinganisa. Saka hamuzogoni kumira pamberi pavavengi venyu.

and they shall stumble one over another, as it were before a sword, when none pursueth; and ye shall have no power to stand before your enemies.

38 Muchaparara pakati pendudzi; nyika yavavengi venyu ichakuparadzai.

And ye shall perish among the nations, and the land of your enemies shall eat you up.

39 Avo pakati penyu vachasara, vachaonda munyika dzavavengi vavo nokuda kwezvivi zvavo; uye vachaonda nokuda kwezvivi zvamadzibaba avo.

And they that remain of you shall waste away through their iniquity in your enemies' lands; and also through the iniquities of their fathers shall they waste away with them.

40 “‘Asi kana vakareurura zvivi zvavo nezvivi zvamadzibaba avo, kundimukira kwavo noruvengo rwavo kwandiri,

And they shall confess their iniquity, and the iniquity of their fathers, through their unfaithfulness wherein they were unfaithful to me, and also that they have walked contrary unto me,

41 zvakaita kuti ndivarwise kusvikira ndavaendesa kunyika yavavengi vavo, ipapo kana mwoyo yavo isina kudzingiswa yaninipiswa, varipira zvivi zvavo,

so that I also walked contrary unto them, and brought them into the land of their enemies. If then their uncircumcised heart be humbled, and they then accept the punishment of their iniquity,

42 ndicharangarira sungano yangu naJakobho nesungano yangu naIsaka uye nesungano yangu naAbhurahama; uye ndicharangarira nyika iyi.

I will remember my covenant with Jacob, and also my covenant with Isaac, and also my covenant with Abraham will I remember; and I will remember the land.

43 Nokuti nyika yavachasiya icharamba ichifarira masabata ayo kunyange yaparadzwa saizvozvo vasimo. Vacharipira zvivi zvavo nokuti vakaramba mirayiro yangu vakasema mitemo yangu.

For the land shall be left by them, and shall enjoy its sabbaths, when it is in desolation without them; and they shall accept the punishment of their iniquity; because, even because they despised my judgments, and their soul abhorred my statutes.

44 Asi kunyange zvakadaro, kana vari munyika yavavengi vavo, handizovarambi kana kuvasema kuti ndivaparadze zvachose, ndichiputsa sungano yangu navo. Ndini Jehovha Mwari wavo.

And yet for all that, when they are in the land of their enemies, I will not despise them, and will not abhor them, to make an end of them utterly, to break my covenant with them, for I am Jehovah their God.

45 Asi nokuda kwavo ndicharangarira sungano yandakaita namadzitateguru avo vandakabudisa kubva muIjipiti pamberi pendudzi dzose kuti ndive Mwari wavo. Ndini Jehovha.’”

But I will remember toward them the covenant with their ancestors whom I brought forth out of the land of Egypt before the eyes of the nations, that I might be their God: I am Jehovah.

46 Iyi ndiyo mitemo, mirayiro nezvakatemwa zvakamiswa naJehovha pagomo reSinai pakati pake navaIsraeri kubudikidza naMozisi.

These are the statutes and ordinances and laws which Jehovah made between him and the children of Israel in mount Sinai, by the hand of Moses.
