< Torati 17 >
1 Haupaswi kumtolea dhabihu Yahwe Mungu wako ng'ombe au kondoo aliye na kasoro au kitu chochote kibaya, kwa kuwa hiyo itakuwa chukizo kwa Yahwe Mungu wako.
οὐ θύσεις κυρίῳ τῷ θεῷ σου μόσχον ἢ πρόβατον ἐν ᾧ ἐστιν ἐν αὐτῷ μῶμος πᾶν ῥῆμα πονηρόν ὅτι βδέλυγμα κυρίῳ τῷ θεῷ σού ἐστιν
2 Kama kunapatikana miongoni mwenu, ndani ya malango ya mji wowote ambao Yahwe Mungu wenu anawapatia, mwanaume yoyote au mwanamke ambaye anafanya uovu mbele ya Yahwe Mungu wenu kuiharibu agano lake -
ἐὰν δὲ εὑρεθῇ ἐν σοὶ ἐν μιᾷ τῶν πόλεών σου ὧν κύριος ὁ θεός σου δίδωσίν σοι ἀνὴρ ἢ γυνή ὅστις ποιήσει τὸ πονηρὸν ἐναντίον κυρίου τοῦ θεοῦ σου παρελθεῖν τὴν διαθήκην αὐτοῦ
3 yoyote ambaye ameenda na kuabudu miungu mingine na kuisujudia, wala jua, mwezi, au kati ya jeshi la mbinguni- hakuna chochote nimekuamuru,
καὶ ἐλθόντες λατρεύσωσιν θεοῖς ἑτέροις καὶ προσκυνήσωσιν αὐτοῖς τῷ ἡλίῳ ἢ τῇ σελήνῃ ἢ παντὶ τῶν ἐκ τοῦ κόσμου τοῦ οὐρανοῦ ἃ οὐ προσέταξεν
4 na kama ungeambiwa kuhusu hiki, au kama una mifugo- basi unapaswa kufanya uchunguzi wa makini. Kama ni kweli na hakika kwamba chukizo kama hilo limefanyika Israeli-
καὶ ἀναγγελῇ σοι καὶ ἐκζητήσεις σφόδρα καὶ ἰδοὺ ἀληθῶς γέγονεν τὸ ῥῆμα γεγένηται τὸ βδέλυγμα τοῦτο ἐν Ισραηλ
5 -basi utamleta huyo mwanaume au mwanamke, aliyefanya uovu huu, katika malango ya mji, kwamba mwanaume kabisa au mwanamke, na umponde huyo mtu mpaka kufa.
καὶ ἐξάξεις τὸν ἄνθρωπον ἐκεῖνον ἢ τὴν γυναῖκα ἐκείνην καὶ λιθοβολήσετε αὐτοὺς ἐν λίθοις καὶ τελευτήσουσιν
6 Kwa kinywa cha mashahidi wawili, au mashahidi watatu, itakuwa yeye anayepaswa kuuwawa; lakini kwa kinywa cha shahidi mmoja peke hatauwawa.
ἐπὶ δυσὶν μάρτυσιν ἢ ἐπὶ τρισὶν μάρτυσιν ἀποθανεῖται ὁ ἀποθνῄσκων οὐκ ἀποθανεῖται ἐφ’ ἑνὶ μάρτυρι
7 Mkono wa mashahidi unapaswa kuwa wa kwanza kumuuwa, na badae mkono wa watu wote; na mtamuondoa muovu miongoni mwenu.
καὶ ἡ χεὶρ τῶν μαρτύρων ἔσται ἐπ’ αὐτῷ ἐν πρώτοις θανατῶσαι αὐτόν καὶ ἡ χεὶρ παντὸς τοῦ λαοῦ ἐπ’ ἐσχάτων καὶ ἐξαρεῖς τὸν πονηρὸν ἐξ ὑμῶν αὐτῶν
8 Kama jambo linatokea ambalo ni gumu kwenu kufanya maamuzi- pengine swali la mauaji au kifo cha ajali, haki ya mtu mmoja na haki ya mtu mwingine, au swali moja la aina ya kuzulu kufanyika, au aina nyingine ya jambo-mambo ya utata ndani ya malango yenu, basi utapaswa kwenda kwenye eneo ambalo Yahwe Mungu wako atachagua kama patakatifu pake.
ἐὰν δὲ ἀδυνατήσῃ ἀπὸ σοῦ ῥῆμα ἐν κρίσει ἀνὰ μέσον αἷμα αἵματος καὶ ἀνὰ μέσον κρίσις κρίσεως καὶ ἀνὰ μέσον ἁφὴ ἁφῆς καὶ ἀνὰ μέσον ἀντιλογία ἀντιλογίας ῥήματα κρίσεως ἐν ταῖς πόλεσιν ὑμῶν καὶ ἀναστὰς ἀναβήσῃ εἰς τὸν τόπον ὃν ἂν ἐκλέξηται κύριος ὁ θεός σου ἐπικληθῆναι τὸ ὄνομα αὐτοῦ ἐκεῖ
9 Utapaswa kwenda kwa makuhani, wazao wa Lawi, na kwa mwamuzi atakayetumika kwa wakati huo; mtatafuta ushauri wao, na watawapa ninyi maamuzi.
καὶ ἐλεύσῃ πρὸς τοὺς ἱερεῖς τοὺς Λευίτας καὶ πρὸς τὸν κριτήν ὃς ἂν γένηται ἐν ταῖς ἡμέραις ἐκείναις καὶ ἐκζητήσαντες ἀναγγελοῦσίν σοι τὴν κρίσιν
10 Mnapaswa kufuata sheria mliyopewa, katika eneo Yahwe atachagua kama patakatifu pake. Mtakuwa makini kufanya kila kitu ambacho wanawaelekeza kufanya.
καὶ ποιήσεις κατὰ τὸ πρᾶγμα ὃ ἐὰν ἀναγγείλωσίν σοι ἐκ τοῦ τόπου οὗ ἂν ἐκλέξηται κύριος ὁ θεός σου ἐπικληθῆναι τὸ ὄνομα αὐτοῦ ἐκεῖ καὶ φυλάξῃ σφόδρα ποιῆσαι κατὰ πάντα ὅσα ἐὰν νομοθετηθῇ σοι
11 Fuata sheria wanayowafundisha, na kufanya kulingana na maamuzi wanawapa. Msigeuke kutoka kwa kile wanawambia, kwa kulia au kushoto.
κατὰ τὸν νόμον καὶ κατὰ τὴν κρίσιν ἣν ἂν εἴπωσίν σοι ποιήσεις οὐκ ἐκκλινεῖς ἀπὸ τοῦ ῥήματος οὗ ἐὰν ἀναγγείλωσίν σοι δεξιὰ οὐδὲ ἀριστερά
12 Yeyote anayefanya kwa kiburi, kwa kutomsikiliza kuhani anayesimama kutumika mbele ya Yahwe Mungu wako, au kwa kutomsikiliza mwamuzi- huyu mtu atakufa; mtaweka mbali uovu kutoka Israeli.
καὶ ὁ ἄνθρωπος ὃς ἂν ποιήσῃ ἐν ὑπερηφανίᾳ τοῦ μὴ ὑπακοῦσαι τοῦ ἱερέως τοῦ παρεστηκότος λειτουργεῖν ἐπὶ τῷ ὀνόματι κυρίου τοῦ θεοῦ σου ἢ τοῦ κριτοῦ ὃς ἂν ᾖ ἐν ταῖς ἡμέραις ἐκείναις καὶ ἀποθανεῖται ὁ ἄνθρωπος ἐκεῖνος καὶ ἐξαρεῖς τὸν πονηρὸν ἐξ Ισραηλ
13 Watu wote wanapaswa kusikia na kuogopa, na kutofanya kwa kiburi tena.
καὶ πᾶς ὁ λαὸς ἀκούσας φοβηθήσεται καὶ οὐκ ἀσεβήσει ἔτι
14 Wakati mlipokuja kwenye nchi ambayo Yahwe Mungu anawapa, na wakati mnamiliki na kuanza kuishi ndani yake, na halafu unasema, 'Nitajiwekea mfalme juu yangu, kama mataifa yote yanayonizunguka mimi,'
ἐὰν δὲ εἰσέλθῃς εἰς τὴν γῆν ἣν κύριος ὁ θεός σου δίδωσίν σοι ἐν κλήρῳ καὶ κληρονομήσῃς αὐτὴν καὶ κατοικήσῃς ἐπ’ αὐτῆς καὶ εἴπῃς καταστήσω ἐπ’ ἐμαυτὸν ἄρχοντα καθὰ καὶ τὰ λοιπὰ ἔθνη τὰ κύκλῳ μου
15 basi unapaswa kwa hakika kujiwekea mfalme juu yako mtu yeyote ambaye Yahwe atachagua. Unapaswa kujiweka kama mfalme juu yako mtu yeyote kutoka miongoni mwa ndugu zenu. Haupaswi kuweka mgeni, ambaye si ndugu yenu, juu yenu.
καθιστῶν καταστήσεις ἐπὶ σεαυτὸν ἄρχοντα ὃν ἂν ἐκλέξηται κύριος ὁ θεός σου αὐτόν ἐκ τῶν ἀδελφῶν σου καταστήσεις ἐπὶ σεαυτὸν ἄρχοντα οὐ δυνήσῃ καταστῆσαι ἐπὶ σεαυτὸν ἄνθρωπον ἀλλότριον ὅτι οὐκ ἀδελφός σού ἐστιν
16 Lakini hapaswi kuzidisha farasi kwa ajili yake, wala kusababisha watu kurudi Misri ili kwamba aweze kuzidisha farasi, kwa kuwa Yahwe alikwisha sema kwako, 'Unapaswa kuanzia sasa usirudi njia hiyo tena.'
διότι οὐ πληθυνεῖ ἑαυτῷ ἵππον οὐδὲ μὴ ἀποστρέψῃ τὸν λαὸν εἰς Αἴγυπτον ὅπως πληθύνῃ ἑαυτῷ ἵππον ὁ δὲ κύριος εἶπεν οὐ προσθήσετε ἀποστρέψαι τῇ ὁδῷ ταύτῃ ἔτι
17 Na hapaswi kuzidisha wake kwa ajili yake, ili kwamba moyo wake usigeuke kotoka kwa Yahwe; wala hapaswi sana kuzidisha kwa ajili yake fedha au dhahabu.
καὶ οὐ πληθυνεῖ ἑαυτῷ γυναῖκας οὐδὲ μεταστήσεται αὐτοῦ ἡ καρδία καὶ ἀργύριον καὶ χρυσίον οὐ πληθυνεῖ ἑαυτῷ σφόδρα
18 Wakati aketipo kwenye kiti cha enzi cha ufalme wake, anapaswa kuandika kwenye kitabu kwa ajili yake nakala ya sheria hii, kutoka kwenye sheria ambayo iko mbele ya makuhani, ambao ni Walawi.
καὶ ἔσται ὅταν καθίσῃ ἐπὶ τῆς ἀρχῆς αὐτοῦ καὶ γράψει ἑαυτῷ τὸ δευτερονόμιον τοῦτο εἰς βιβλίον παρὰ τῶν ἱερέων τῶν Λευιτῶν
19 Kitabu kinapaswa kuwa na yeye, na anapaswa kusoma ndani yake kwa siku zake zote, ili kwamba aweze kujifunza kumheshimu Yahwe Mungu wako, ili kwamba ashike maneno yote ya sheria hii na amri hizi, kuzishika.
καὶ ἔσται μετ’ αὐτοῦ καὶ ἀναγνώσεται ἐν αὐτῷ πάσας τὰς ἡμέρας τῆς ζωῆς αὐτοῦ ἵνα μάθῃ φοβεῖσθαι κύριον τὸν θεὸν αὐτοῦ φυλάσσεσθαι πάσας τὰς ἐντολὰς ταύτας καὶ τὰ δικαιώματα ταῦτα ποιεῖν
20 Anapaswa kufanya hivi ili kwamba moyo wake usiinuliwe zaidi ya ndugu zake, na ili kwamba asigeuke mbali na amri, kwa kulia au kwa kushoto' kwa kusudi kwamba aweze kuzidisha siku zake katika ufalme wake, yeye na watoto wake, miongoni mwa Israel.
ἵνα μὴ ὑψωθῇ ἡ καρδία αὐτοῦ ἀπὸ τῶν ἀδελφῶν αὐτοῦ ἵνα μὴ παραβῇ ἀπὸ τῶν ἐντολῶν δεξιὰ ἢ ἀριστερά ὅπως ἂν μακροχρονίσῃ ἐπὶ τῆς ἀρχῆς αὐτοῦ αὐτὸς καὶ οἱ υἱοὶ αὐτοῦ ἐν τοῖς υἱοῖς Ισραηλ
