5 Amubone, ndamuyiisya milawo ambeta,+ mbubonya Jehova Leza wangu mbwaakandilailila kutegwa mukazitobele munyika njayoomupa kuti ibe yanu.
6 Mweelede kuzibamba cakulomya,+ nkaambo kucita boobu kulamupa busongo+ akumvwisya+ kumeso aabantu ibayoomvwa milawo eeyi yoonse, alimwi bayakwaamba kuti, ‘Masimpe musyobo ooyu mupati, mbantu basongo alimwi bamvwisya.’+
7 Sena kuli musyobo uumbi mupati uujisi baleza ibali afwaafwi anguwo mbuli Jehova Leza wesu mbwali afwaafwi andiswe kufwumbwa ciindi notumwiita?+
8 Alimwi sena kuli musyobo uumbi mupati uujisi milawo iiluleme ambeta zili mbuli Mulawo ooyu woonse ngondamupa sunu?+
9 “Pele buyo amubikkile maano akucenjela ncobeni, kuti mutalubi zintu nzyomwakabona ameso aanu akuti zitazwi mumyoyo yanu mazuba oonse aabuumi bwanu. Alimwi mweelede kubazyibya nzizyo bana banu abazyukulu banu.+
10 Buzuba nimwakaima kumbele lya Jehova Leza wanu ku Horebu, Jehova wakandaambila kuti, ‘Kobunganya bantu antoomwe kulindime kutegwa ndibaambile majwi aangu,+ baiye kundiyoowa+ mazuba oonse ngobali baumi anyika alimwi akuti bayiisye bana babo.’+
11 “Aboobo mwakaboola afwaafwi akwiima munsi aacilundu, alimwi cilundu cakali kuyaka mulilo mane kusikila mujulu; kwakali mudima akkumbi lisiya mbi.+
12 Eelyo Jehova wakatalika kwaambaula andinywe kuzwa mukati kamulilo.+ Mwakamvwa buyo majwi alikke,+ pele taakwe ncomwakabona pe.+
13 Mpoonya wakamwaambila cizuminano cakwe,+ eeco ncaakamulailila kuti mucite, nkokuti Milawo Iili Kkumi.*+ Kuzwa waawo wakailemba amabwe obilo aapapalete.+
14 Alimwi Jehova wakandilailila aciindi eeco kuti ndimuyiisye milawo ambeta nzyomweelede kuyootobela munyika eeyo njomuyoobweza.
15 “Aboobo amucenjele ncobeni–nkaambo taakwe ncomwakabona mubuzuba obuya Jehova naakaambaula andinywe ku Horebu mukati kamulilo–
16 kuti mutabisyi kwiinda mukulipangila cikozyanyo cibezedwe cacintu cili coonse, cili mbuli mwaalumi naa mukaintu,+
17 cili mbuli munyama waanyika uuli woonse naa cili mbuli muyuni uuli woonse uuluka mujulu,+
18 cili mbuli cintu cili coonse ceenda anyika naa cili mbuli nswi iili yoonse yamumaanzi.+
19 Alimwi mwalanga kujulu akubona zuba, mwezi anyenyeezi, nkokuti makamu oonse aakujulu, mutoongelezyegwi kuti mutalike kuzikotamina akuzikomba.+ Jehova Leza wanu wazyaaba kubantu boonse baansi.
20 Pele nywebo ndinywe baabo Jehova mbaakayokola mubbibi lyamulilo wakunyenguluzya butale, nkokuti kuzwa mu Egepita, kuti mube bantu bakwe bamugeme*+ mbuli mbomubede sunu.
21 “Jehova wakandinyemena akaambo kandinywe,+ mane wakakonka kuti tandeelede kuzabuka Jordano naa kunjila munyika mbotu eeyo Jehova Leza wanu njayoomupa kuti ibe lukono lwanu.+
22 Nkaambo ndilafwa munyika iino; tandikouzabuka mulonga wa Jordano,+ pele nywebo mulazabuka alimwi muyookona nyika eeyi mbotu.
23 Amucenjele kuti mutalubi cizuminano ca Jehova Leza wanu ncaakapangana andinywe+ akuti mutalipangili cikozyanyo cakubeza cacintu cili coonse Jehova Leza wanu ncaakamukasya.+
24 Nkaambo Jehova Leza wanu mulilo uumpa cakumaninina,+ ngu Leza uuyanda kuti kakombwa buyo alikke.+
25 “Ikuti naa mukazyale bana akuba abazyukulu alimwi akupona ciindi cilamfwu munyika, mpoonya mukabisye akupanga cikozyanyo cakubeza+ cacintu cili coonse akucita zibi mumeso aa Jehova Leza wanu akumunyemya,+

27 Jehova uyoomumwaisya akati kabamasi,+ alimwi mbasyoonto buyo ibayoofwutuka+ mumasi aayo Jehova nkwayoomutandila.
28 Ooko muyookomba baleza bazisamu abaleza bamabwe ibakapangwa amaanza aabantu,+ baleza ibatakonzyi kubona, kumvwa, kulya naa kununkizya.
29 “Ikuti mukamuyandaule Jehova Leza wanu ooko, ncobeni muyoomujana,+ ikuti mukamuyandaule camoyo wanu woonse abuumi bwanu boonse.+
30 Kumazuba aaboola kumbele mwaakupenga kapati eelyo zintu zyoonse eezyi zyaakumucitikila, muyoopiluka kuli Jehova Leza wanu akuswiilila jwi lyakwe.+
31 Nkaambo Jehova Leza wanu ngu Leza siluse.+ Takamulekelezyi naa kulekela kuti munyonyooke naa kuluba cizuminano ncaakakonkezya kuli bamauso.+
32 “Lino amubuzye makani aaciindi camusyule kamutanabako, kuzwa buzuba Leza naakalenga muntu anyika; amuvwuntauzye kuzwa kumasimpilo aamwi aajulu kusikila kumasimpilo aambi. Sena kuli cintu cipati boobu cakacitika kale naa cintu cili boobu cakamvwigwa?+
33 Sena kuli bantu bambi bakamvwa jwi lya Leza kaambaula mukati kamulilo mbuli ndinywe mbomwakamvwa akuzumanana kupona?+
34 Naa sena Leza kuli naakasolede kubweza musyobo umwi kuti ube wakwe kuzwa akati kamusyobo uumbi kubelesya mbeta, zitondezyo, maleele,+ nkondo,+ janza lyanguzu,+ janza litandabede amilimo iiyoosya+ mbubonya Jehova Leza wanu mbwaakamucitila mucisi ca Egepita kamulangilila?
35 Nywebo mwakatondezyegwa kutegwa muzyibe kuti Jehova ngo Leza mwini-mwini;+ kunyina uumbi kunze lyanguwe.+
36 Wakapa kuti mumvwe jwi lyakwe kuzwa kujulu kutegwa amululamike, alimwi anyika wakamutondezya mulilo wakwe mupati, amajwi aakwe mwakaamvwa kuzwa mukati kamulilo.+
37 “Akaambo kakuti wakali kubayanda bamauso alimwi wakasala lunyungu lwabo,+ mwazumanana kupona alimwi wakamugwisya mu Egepita kali andinywe anguzu zyakwe zinji.
38 Wakatanda misyobo mipati alimwi iilaanguzu kwiinda ndinywe kuzwa kubusyu bwanu, kutegwa amulete akumupa nyika yayo kuti ibe lukono lwanu mbuli mbokubede sunu.+
39 Aboobo sunu amuzyibe akucibikka mumyoyo yanu kuti Jehova ngo Leza mwini-mwini kujulu aanyika.+ Taakwe uumbi pe.+
40 Mweelede kubamba malailile amilawo yakwe nzyendimulailila sunu, kutegwa zintu zimweendele kabotu abana banu, alimwi kutegwa mupone mazuba manji anyika eeyo Jehova Leza wanu njayanda kumupa.”+
