Mambo ya Walawi 19
1 Yahweh akazungumza na Musa, akisema.
And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
2 Zungumza na kusanyiko lote la watu wa Israeli na uwaambie, 'Ni lazima muwe watakatifu, kwa kuwa mimi Yahweh Mungu wenu ni mtakatifu.
Speak unto all the assembly of the children of Israel, and say unto them, Holy shall ye be, for I Jehovah your God am holy.
3 Kila mtu amstahi mama yake na baba yake. Na ni lazima muzishike Sabato zangu. Mimi ndimi Yahweh Mungu wenu.
Ye shall reverence every man his mother, and his father, and my sabbaths shall ye keep: I am Jehovah your God.
4 Msizigeukie sanamu zisizo na thamani, wala kujitengenezea wenyewe miungu kutokana na chuma. Mimi ndimi Yahweh Mungu wenu.
Ye shall not turn unto idols, and ye shall not make to yourselves molten gods: I am Jehovah your God.
5 Unapotoa dhabihu za sadaka ya ushirika kwa Yahweh, utatoa ili kupata kibali.
And if ye sacrifice a sacrifice of peace-offering to Jehovah, ye shall sacrifice it for your acceptance.
6 Ni sharti iliwe siku hiyo hiyo uliyoitoa, au siku inayofuata.
On the day when ye sacrifice it shall it be eaten, and on the morrow; and that which remaineth until the third day shall be burned with fire.
7 Kama kinabaki kitu cho chote hata siku ya tatu ni lazima kiteketezwe kwa moto. Kama kitaliwa katika siku ya tatu kitakuwa najisi. Hakitakubalika,
And if it be eaten at all on the third day, it is an unclean thing: it shall not be accepted.
8 lakini kila akilaye ni lazima atachukua hatia yake kwa sababu amekivunjia heshima kilicho kitakatifu kwa Yahweh. Mtu huyo ni lazima akatiliwe mbali na watu wake.
And he that eateth it shall bear his iniquity; for he hath profaned the hallowed thing of Jehovah; and that soul shall be cut off from among his peoples.
9 Unapovuna mavuno ya ardhi yako, usivune hata pembezo mwa shamba lako kabisa, wala hutakusanya mabaki ya mavuno yako yote.
And when ye reap the harvest of your land, thou shalt not wholly reap the corners of thy field, and the gleaning of thy harvest thou shalt not gather.
10 Usikusanye kila zabibu kutoka katika mizabibu yako, wala usiziokote dhabibu zilizoanguka chini katika shamba la mizabibu. Ni lazima uziache kwa ajili ya masikini na kwa ajili ya wageni. Mimi ndimi Yahweh Mungu wako.
And thy vineyard shalt thou not glean, neither shalt thou gather what hath been left of thy vineyard; thou shalt leave them for the poor and the stranger: I am Jehovah your God.
11 Usiibe. Usiseme uongo. Msidanganyane.
Ye shall not steal, and ye shall not deal falsely, and ye shall not lie one to another.
12 Usiape kwa jina langu kwa uongo na kulinajisi jina la Mungu wako. Mimi ndimi Yahweh
And ye shall not swear by my name falsely, and profane the name of thy God: I am Jehovah.
13 Usimgandamize jirani yako wala kumwibia. Usishikilie malipo ya kibarua usiku kucha hata asubuhi.
Thou shalt not oppress thy neighbour, neither rob him. The wages of the hired servant shall not abide with thee all night until the morning.
14 Usimlaani kiziwi au kuweka kikwazo mbele ya kipofu. Badala yake, yakupasa umwogope Mungu wako. Mimi ndimi Yahweh.
Thou shalt not revile a deaf person, and thou shalt not put a stumbling-block before a blind one; but thou shalt fear thy God: I am Jehovah.
15 Usisababishe hukumu ikawa ya uongo. Usionyeshe upendeleo kwa mtu fulani eti kwa kuwa tu yeye ni masikini na usionyeshe upendeleo kwa mtu fulani eti kwa kuwa tu yeye ni mtu muhimu. Badala yake, amua juu ya jirani yako kwa haki.
Ye shall do no unrighteousness in judgment; thou shalt not respect the person of the lowly, nor honour the person of the great; in righteousness shalt thou judge thy neighbour.
16 Usiende huku na huko ukisema habari za uchochezi miongoni mwa watu wako, bali tafuta kuyalinda maisha ya jirani yako. Mimi ndimi Yahweh.
Thou shalt not go about as a talebearer among thy people; thou shalt not stand up against the life of thy neighbour: I am Jehovah.
17 Usimchukie ndugu yako moyoni mwako. Mkemee jirani yako kwa heshima ili kwamba usishiriki katika dhambi kwa sababu yake.
Thou shalt not hate thy brother in thy heart; thou shalt earnestly rebuke thy neighbour, lest thou bear sin on account of him.
18 Usijilipize kisasi au kuwa na chuki yoyote dhidi ya mtu yeyote wa watu wako, lakini badala yake mpende jirani yako kama unavyojipenda wewe mwenyewe. Mimi ndimi Yahweh.
Thou shalt not avenge thyself, nor bear any grudge against the children of thy people, but thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself: I am Jehovah.
19 Shika amri zangu. Usiwazalishe wanyama wako kwa kutumia wanyama wa aina nyingine tofauti. Usichanganye aina mbili tofauti za mbegu unapopanda shamba lako. Usivae vazi lililofumwa kwa kutumia nyuzi za rangi mbili tofauti zilizochanganywa pamoja.
My statutes shall ye observe. Thou shalt not let thy cattle gender with another sort; thou shalt not sow thy field with seed of two sorts; and a garment woven of two materials shall not come upon thee.
20 Yeyote anayelala na msichana mtumwa aliyeposwa na mume mwingine, lakini ambaye hajakombolewa au hajaachwa huru, lazima waadhibiwe. Hawatauawa kwa sababu yule msichana hakuwa huru.
And if a man lie with a woman for copulation, and she is a bondwoman betrothed to a husband, but not at all ransomed, nor hath freedom been given to her, there shall be a chastisement: they shall not be put to death, for she was not free.
21 Ni lazima mtu huyo alete sadaka yake ya hatia kwenye ingilio la hema la kukutania—kondoo dume iwe sadaka ya hatia.
And he shall bring his trespass-offering to Jehovah, unto the entrance of the tent of meeting, a ram for a trespass-offering.
22 Kisha kuhani atafanya upatanisho kwa ajili yake kwa huyo kandoo dume mbele za Yahweh kutokana na dhambi aliyoitenda. Nayo dhambi iliyotendwa itasamehewa.
And the priest shall make atonement for him with the ram of the trespass-offering before Jehovah for his sin which he hath done; and the sin which he hath done shall be forgiven him.
23 Mtakapoingia katika nchi na kupanda aina zote za miti kwa chakula, kisha mtayahesabu matunda yatakayozaliwa kuwa yamekatazwa kuliwa. Tunda litakatazwa kwako kwa miaka mitatu. Halitaliwa.
And when ye come into the land and plant all manner of trees for food, then ye shall count its fruit as uncircumcised, three years shall it be uncircumcised unto you: it shall not be eaten of;
24 Lakini katika mwaka wa nne matunda yote yatakuwa matakatiifu, matoleo ya sifa kwa Yahweh.
and in the fourth year all the fruit thereof shall be holy for praise to Jehovah;
25 Katika mwaka wa tano unaweza kula tunda, ambalo umelisubiri ili kwamba mti uweze kuzaa zaidi. Mimi ndimi Yahweh Mungu wako.
and in the fifth year shall ye eat the fruit thereof, that it may increase unto you the produce thereof: I am Jehovah your God.
26 Usile nyama yoyote amabayo damu ingalimo ndani yake. Usiulize kwa roho juu ya wakati ujao,
Ye shall eat nothing with the blood. — Ye shall not practise enchantment, nor use auguries.
27 Usitafute kuwadhibiti wengine kwa njia ya nguvu za kichawi. Msifuate tabia za kipagani kama vile kunyoa denge au kunyoa pembe za ndevu zeu.
— Ye shall not shave the corners of your head round, neither shalt thou mutilate the corners of thy beard.
28 Usiukate mwili wako kwa ajili ya wafu au kuchanja chale juu ya mwili wako. Mimi ndimi Yahweh.
And cuttings for a dead person shall ye not make in your flesh, nor put any tattoo writing upon you: I am Jehovah.
29 Usimwaibishe binti yako kwa kumfanya kahaba, la sivyo taifa litaangukia kwenye ukahaba na nchi itajawa na uovu.
— Do not profane thy daughter, to give her up to whoredom; lest the land practise whoredom, and the land become full of infamy.
30 Utazitunza Sabato zangu na kupaheshimu mahali patakatifu pa hema langu la kukutania. Mimi ndimi Yahweh.
— My sabbaths shall ye keep, and my sanctuary shall ye reverence: I am Jehovah.
31 Msiwageukie wale wanaoongea na wafu au roho wachafu. msiwatafute, la sivyo watawanajisi ninyi, Mimi ndimi Yahweh Mungu wenu.
— Turn not unto necromancers and unto soothsayers; seek not after them to make yourselves unclean: I am Jehovah your God.
32 Ni lazima usimame mbele za mtu mwenye mvi na uheshimu uwepo wa mzee. Yakupasa umwegope Mungu wako. Mimi ndimi Yahweh.
Before the hoary head thou shalt rise up, and shalt honour the face of an old man; and thou shalt fear thy God: I am Jehovah.
33 Mgeni anapoishi miongoni mwenu katika nchi yanu, usimtendee lolote lililobaya.
And if a stranger sojourn with thee in your land, ye shall not molest him.
34 Mgeni anayeishi pamoja nanyi ni lazima awe kama mwenyeji Mwisraeli mzaliwa anayeishi kwenu, na sharti umpende kama unavyojipenda wewe mwenyewe, ni kwa sababu wewe ulikuwa mgeni katika nchi ya Misri. Mimi ndimi Yahweh Mungu wako.
As one born among you shall the stranger who sojourneth with you be unto you; and thou shalt love him as thyself; for ye were strangers in the land of Egypt: I am Jehovah your God.
35 Unapopima urefu, uzito, au wingi usitumie vipimo vya udanganyifu.
Ye shall do no unrighteousness in judgment, in measure of length, in weight, and in measure of capacity:
36 Tumia mizani iliyo halali, mawe ya kupimia uzito yaliyo halali, efa halali, hini iliyo halali. Mimi ndimi Yahweh Mungu wako, aliyekutoa katika nchi ya utumwa ya Misri.
just balances, just weights, a just ephah, and a just hin shall ye have: I am Jehovah your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt.
37 Utayatii maagizo yangu na sheria zangu zote na kuzitenda. Mimi ndimi Yahweh.
And ye shall observe all my statutes, and all mine ordinances, and do them: I am Jehovah.
