Torati 12
1 Hizi ndizo amri na sheria ambazo ni lazima mwe waangalifu kuzifuata katika nchi ambayo Bwana, Mungu wa baba zenu, amewapa kumiliki, kwa muda wote mtakaoishi katika nchi.
these [the] statute: decree and [the] justice: judgement which to keep: careful [emph?] to/for to make: do in/on/with land: country/planet which to give: give LORD God father your to/for you to/for to possess: take her all [the] day which you(m. p.) alive upon [the] land: planet
2 Haribuni kabisa kila mahali pao pa kuabudia kwenye milima mirefu, vilima na chini ya kila mti mkubwa ambamo mataifa haya mnayokwenda kuchukua ardhi yao huabudia miungu yao.
to perish to perish [emph?] [obj] all [the] place which to serve: minister there [the] nation which you(m. p.) to possess: take [obj] them [obj] God their upon [the] mountain: mount [the] to exalt and upon [the] hill and underneath: under all tree luxuriant
3 Bomoeni madhabahu zao, vunjeni yale mawe wanayoabudu, chomeni moto nguzo zao za Ashera; katilieni mbali sanamu za miungu yao na mfute majina yao mahali hapo.
and to tear [obj] altar their and to break [obj] pillar their and Asherah their to burn [emph?] in/on/with fire and idol God their to cut down/off [emph?] and to perish [obj] name their from [the] place [the] he/she/it
4 Kamwe msimwabudu Bwana Mungu wenu kama wanavyoabudu wao.
not to make: offer [emph?] so to/for LORD God your
5 Bali mtatafuta mahali Bwana Mungu wenu atakapopachagua katika makabila yenu yote ili aliweke jina lake huko kuwa makao yake. Mahali hapo ndipo iwapasapo kwenda;
that if: except if: except to(wards) [the] place which to choose LORD God your from all tribe your to/for to set: put [obj] name his there to/for to dwell his to seek and to come (in): come there [to]
6 hapo ndipo mtakapoleta sadaka zenu za kuteketezwa na dhabihu, zaka zenu na changizo zenu, kile ulichoweka nadhiri kutoa, sadaka zenu za hiari na malimbuko ya makundi yenu ya ngʼombe pamoja na mbuzi na kondoo.
and to come (in): bring there [to] burnt offering your and sacrifice your and [obj] tithe your and [obj] contribution hand: themselves your and vow your and voluntariness your and firstborn cattle your and flock your
7 Hapo, katika uwepo wa Bwana Mungu wenu, ninyi pamoja na jamaa zenu, mtakula na kufurahia kila kitu ambacho mmegusa kwa mikono yenu, kwa sababu Bwana Mungu wenu amewabariki.
and to eat there to/for face: before LORD God your and to rejoice in/on/with all sending hand: undertake your you(m. p.) and house: household your which to bless you LORD God your
8 Msifanye kama tunavyofanya hapa leo, kila mtu anavyopenda mwenyewe,
not to make: do [emph?] like/as all which we to make: do here [the] day man: anyone all [the] upright in/on/with eye: appearance his
9 kwa kuwa bado hamjafikia mahali pa mapumziko na urithi ambao Bwana Mungu wenu anawapa.
for not to come (in): come till now to(wards) [the] resting and to(wards) [the] inheritance which LORD God your to give: give to/for you
10 Lakini mtavuka Yordani na kuishi katika nchi Bwana Mungu wenu anayowapa kama urithi, naye atawapa pumziko kutokana na adui zenu wote wanaowazunguka ili ninyi mpate kuishi kwa salama.
and to pass [obj] [the] Jordan and to dwell in/on/with land: country/planet which LORD God your to inherit [obj] you and to rest to/for you from all enemy your from around and to dwell security
11 Kisha kuhusu mahali Bwana Mungu wenu atakapopachagua kuwa mahali pa makao ya Jina lake, hapo ndipo inapowapasa kuleta kila kitu ninachowaamuru: sadaka zenu za kuteketezwa na dhabihu, zaka zenu na changizo, pamoja na vitu vyote vyenye thamani ambavyo mmeweka nadhiri kumtolea Bwana.
and to be [the] place which to choose LORD God your in/on/with him to/for to dwell name his there there [to] to come (in): bring [obj] all which I to command [obj] you burnt offering your and sacrifice your tithe your and contribution hand: themselves your and all best vow your which to vow to/for LORD
12 Hapo furahini mbele za Bwana Mungu wenu, ninyi, wana wenu na binti zenu, watumishi wenu wa kiume na wa kike, pamoja na Walawi kutoka miji yenu ambao hawana mgawo wala urithi wao wenyewe.
and to rejoice to/for face: before LORD God your you(m. p.) and son: child your and daughter your and servant/slave your and maidservant your and [the] Levi which in/on/with gate: town your for nothing to/for him portion and inheritance with you
13 Kuweni waangalifu, msitoe dhabihu zenu za kuteketezwa mahali popote mnapopapenda.
to keep: careful to/for you lest to ascend: offer up burnt offering your in/on/with all place which to see: see
14 Mtazitoa tu mahali pale ambapo Bwana atachagua katika mojawapo ya makabila yenu, nanyi hapo zingatieni kila jambo ninalowaamuru.
that if: except if: except in/on/with place which to choose LORD in/on/with one tribe your there to ascend: offer up burnt offering your and there to make: do all which I to command you
15 Hata hivyo, mnaweza kuwachinja wanyama wenu katika miji yenu yoyote ile na kula nyama nyingi mpendavyo kama vile mmemchinja paa au kulungu, kulingana na baraka mtakazojaliwa na Bwana Mungu wenu. Watu walio najisi au walio safi wanaweza kula.
except in/on/with all desire soul: myself your to sacrifice and to eat flesh like/as blessing LORD God your which to give: give to/for you in/on/with all gate: town your [the] unclean and [the] pure to eat him like/as gazelle and like/as deer
16 Lakini kamwe usinywe damu; imwage juu ya ardhi kama maji.
except [the] blood not to eat upon [the] land: soil to pour: pour him like/as water
17 Hamruhusiwi kula katika miji yenu zaka yenu ya nafaka, ya divai mpya na ya mafuta, au mzaliwa wa kwanza wa makundi yenu ya ngʼombe na makundi yenu ya mbuzi na kondoo, wala chochote ambacho mmeweka nadhiri kukitoa, au sadaka zako za hiari, wala matoleo maalum.
not be able to/for to eat in/on/with gate: town your tithe grain your and new wine your and oil your and firstborn cattle your and flock your and all vow your which to vow and voluntariness your and contribution hand: themselves your
18 Badala yake, mtakula vitu hivyo katika uwepo wa Bwana Mungu wenu mahali ambapo Bwana Mungu wenu atapachagua: wewe, wana wako na binti zako, watumishi wako wa kiume na wa kike, na Walawi kutoka miji yenu. Mnatakiwa mfurahi mbele za Bwana Mungu wenu kwa kula kitu mtakachoweka mikono yenu.
that if: except if: except to/for face: before LORD God your to eat him in/on/with place which to choose LORD God your in/on/with him you(m. s.) and son: child your and daughter your and servant/slave your and maidservant your and [the] Levi which in/on/with gate: town your and to rejoice to/for face: before LORD God your in/on/with all sending hand: undertake your
19 Mwe waangalifu msiwapuuze Walawi kwa muda wote mnaoishi katika nchi yenu.
to keep: careful to/for you lest to leave: neglect [obj] [the] Levi all day: always your upon land: soil your
20 Bwana Mungu wenu atakapokuwa ameongeza nchi yenu kama alivyowaahidi, nanyi mkitamani nyama na mkisema, “Ningependa nyama,” hapo unaweza kula nyingi upendavyo.
for to enlarge LORD God your [obj] border: area your like/as as which to speak: promise to/for you and to say to eat flesh for to desire soul: appetite your to/for to eat flesh in/on/with all desire soul: appetite your to eat flesh
21 Kama mahali ambapo Bwana Mungu wenu atapachagua kuweka Jina lake ni mbali sana kutoka kwenu, unaweza kuchinja wanyama kutoka makundi yenu ya ngʼombe, ya mbuzi na ya kondoo ambayo Bwana amewapa, kama nilivyokuamuru, na mkiwa katika miji yenu wenyewe mnaweza kula nyingi mtakavyo.
for to remove from you [the] place which to choose LORD God your to/for to set: put name his there and to sacrifice from cattle your and from flock your which to give: give LORD to/for you like/as as which to command you and to eat in/on/with gate: town your in/on/with all desire soul: myself your
22 Mle kama vile mngekula paa na kulungu. Wote walio najisi kiibada na walio safi mwaweza kula.
surely like/as as which to eat [obj] [the] gazelle and [obj] [the] deer so to eat him [the] unclean and [the] pure together to eat him
23 Lakini hakikisheni kwamba hamkunywa damu, kwa sababu damu ni uhai, kamwe msile uhai pamoja na nyama.
except to strengthen: ensure to/for lest to eat [the] blood for [the] blood he/she/it [the] soul: life and not to eat [the] soul: life with [the] flesh
24 Hamruhusiwi kamwe kunywa damu; imwageni juu ya ardhi kama maji.
not to eat him upon [the] land: soil to pour: pour him like/as water
25 Msinywe damu, ili mweze kufanikiwa ninyi pamoja na watoto wenu baada yenu, kwa sababu mtakuwa mkifanya lililo haki machoni pa Bwana.
not to eat him because be good to/for you and to/for son: child your after you for to make: do [the] upright in/on/with eye: seeing LORD
26 Lakini vichukueni vitu vyenu vilivyowekwa wakfu pamoja na vile mlivyoweka nadhiri, mwende mahali pale Bwana atakapopachagua.
except holiness your which to be to/for you and vow your to lift: raise and to come (in): come to(wards) [the] place which to choose LORD
27 Leteni sadaka zenu za kuteketezwa juu ya madhabahu ya Bwana Mungu wenu, vyote nyama na damu. Damu ya dhabihu zenu lazima imiminwe kando ya madhabahu ya Bwana Mungu wenu, lakini nyama mnaweza kula.
and to make: offer burnt offering your [the] flesh and [the] blood upon altar LORD God your and blood sacrifice your to pour: pour upon altar LORD God your and [the] flesh to eat
28 Mwe waangalifu kutii masharti haya yote ninayowapa, ili kwamba siku zote mweze kufanikiwa, ninyi pamoja na watoto wenu baada yenu, kwa sababu mtakuwa mkifanya lililo jema na sahihi mbele za macho ya Bwana Mungu wenu.
to keep: careful and to hear: obey [obj] all [the] word [the] these which I to command you because be good to/for you and to/for son: child your after you till forever: enduring for to make: do [the] pleasant and [the] upright in/on/with eye: seeing LORD God your
29 Bwana Mungu wenu atayakatilia mbali mbele yenu mataifa ambayo punde kidogo mtayavamia na kuyaondoa. Lakini mtakapokuwa mmeyafukuza na kuishi katika nchi yao,
for to cut: eliminate LORD God your [obj] [the] nation which you(m. s.) to come (in): come there [to] to/for to possess: take [obj] them from face: before your and to possess: take [obj] them and to dwell in/on/with land: country/planet their
30 na baada ya kuangamizwa mbele yenu, mwe waangalifu msijiingize katika tanzi kwa kuuliza habari za miungu yao, mkisema, “Je, mataifa haya hutumikiaje miungu yao? Nasi tutafanya vivyo hivyo.”
to keep: careful to/for you lest to snare after them after to destroy they from face: before your and lest to seek to/for God their to/for to say how? to serve: minister [the] nation [the] these [obj] God their and to make: do so also I
31 Kamwe msimwabudu Bwana Mungu wenu kwa njia wanayoabudu miungu yao, kwa sababu katika kuabudu miungu yao, wanafanya aina zote za machukizo anayoyachukia Bwana. Hata huwateketeza wana wao na binti zao kwa moto kama kafara kwa miungu yao.
not to make: offer so to/for LORD God your for all abomination LORD which to hate to make: do to/for God their for also [obj] son: child their and [obj] daughter their to burn in/on/with fire to/for God their
32 Angalieni kwamba mnafanya yote niliyowaamuru; msiongeze kitu wala msipunguze kitu.
[obj] all [the] word: thing which I to command [obj] you [obj] him to keep: careful to/for to make: do not to add upon him and not to dimish from him
