Nsembe Zonse ndi Mitima Yosagawanika
Milandu ya imfa imafuna mboni ziwiri kapena zitatu, ndipo milandu yovuta imapita ku bwalo lalikulu. Kenako lamulo lodabwitsa: ngati Aisraeli afuna mfumu, ikhale mmodzi wa abale awo, isadziunjikire akavalo, akazi kapena siliva, ndipo ilembe lamulo ili ndi kuliwerenga moyo wake wonse.
17 1Musapereke nsembe kwa Atate wanu ng'ombe kapena nkhosa yokhala ndi chilema chilichonse kapena choyipa chachikulu; chimenechi ndi chonyansa kwa Atate wanu.
2Ngati mwa inu mukapezeka mwamuna kapena mkazi, m'mudzi wina uliwonse umene Atate wanu akupatsani, akuchita zoyipa pamaso pa Atate wanu mwa kuswa pangano lake, 3nakatumikira milungu ina, nagwadira iyo—dzuwa, mwezi, kapena chilichonse cha gulu lakumwamba—zimene Ine sindinalamule, 4ndipo mukauzidwa zimenezi nukuzimva, mufufuze mosamalitsa. Ngati ndi zoona, nkhaniyo ili yotsimikizika, kuti chinthu chonyansa ichi chinachitika mu Isiraeli, 5pamenepo mutulutsire kuzipata zanu mwamuna kapena mkazi amene anachita chinthu choyipa ichi—mwamuna kapena mkazi ameneyo—ndipo muwagende ndi miyala kufikira afa. 6Pa mau a mboni ziwiri kapena zitatu, woweruzidwayo afe; asafe pa mau a mboni imodzi. 7Dzanja la mboni likhale pa iye poyamba kuti amuphe, kenaka dzanja la anthu onse. Motero muchotsa choyipa pakati panu.
Mabwalo a Chiweruzo a Atate
8Ngati mlandu ukhala wovuta kwambiri kwa inu kuuweruza—pakati pa kukhetsa mwazi ndi kukhetsa mwazi, chidandaulo ndi chidandaulo, kumenyana ndi kumenyana, mikangano m'mizinda yanu—mupite kumalo kumene Atate wanu adzasankha. 9Mupite kwa ansembe a fuko la Levi ndi kwa woweruza amene adzatumikira pa nthawi imeneyo; mufunse, ndipo adzakuuzani chigamulo. 10Muchite monga mwa zimene adzakuuzani kuchokera kumalo kumene Atate wathu adzasankha; musamalitse kuchita zonse zimene adzakuphunzitsani. 11Mutsatire chilangizo chimene adzakuphunzitsani ndi chigamulo chimene adzakupatsani; musapatuke pa mau amene adzalengeza, kudzanja lamanja kapena lamanzere. 12Aliyense wochita modzikuza, wokana kumvera wansembe amene wayima kutumikira pamenepo pamaso pa Atate wanu, kapena woweruza, afe. Muchotse choyipa mu Isiraeli. 13Ndipo anthu onse adzamva naopa, ndipo sadzachitanso modzikuza.
Malangizo a Atate Okhudza Mfumu
14Pamene mukalowa m'dziko limene Atate wanu akukupatsani, nulitenga, nukhazikika m'menemo, ndipo mukanena kuti, “Ndiyike mfumu kuti indilamulire, monga mitundu yonse yondizungulira,” 15muyenera kuyika pa inu mfumu imene Atate wanu adzasankha; muyike pa inu mfumu yochokera pakati pa abale anu. Musayike mlendo pa inu, amene si m'bale wanu. 16Asadzipezere yekha akavalo ambiri, kapena kubwezera anthu ku Igupto kuti akapeze ambiri, popeza Atate wathu anakuuzani kuti, “Musabwerere njira imeneyo ku muyaya.” 17Asadzitengere akazi ambiri, kuti mtima wake ungapatuke; kapenanso kudziunjikira yekha siliva ndi golidi wambiri.
18Pamene wakhala pa mpando wake waufumu, adzilembere yekha chofanizira cha lamulo ili pa mpukutu, pamaso pa ansembe a fuko la Levi. 19Uzikhala ndi iye, ndipo aziwerenga mmenemo masiku onse a moyo wake, kuti aphunzire kuopa Atate wake, nasunga mau onse a lamulo ili ndi malamulo awa, nawachita, 20kuti mtima wake usadzikweze pamwamba pa abale ake, ndipo kuti asadzapatuke pa lamulo kudzanja lamanja kapena lamanzere, kuti iye ndi ana ake alamulire nthawi yaitali pa ufumu wake mu Isiraeli.
