Dutelonome 17:1-20
17 “Kuena ne bua kulambula Yehowa Nzambi webe ngombe mulume anyi mukoko bidi ne bulema kampanda anyi bidi kabiyi bimpe to, bualu mulambu au newikale mubi kumpala kua Yehowa Nzambi webe.+
2 “Fuanyikija ne: mbasangane muntu mulume anyi muntu mukaji munkatshi muebe, mu tshimenga kayi tshionso tshidi Yehowa Nzambi webe ukupesha, udi wenza malu mabi ku mêsu kua Yehowa Nzambi webe ne unyanga tshipungidi tshiende,+
3 ne muntu au udi usesuka ne utendelela nzambi mikuabu, uyinamina anyi winamina dîba anyi ngondo anyi musumba wonso wa bintu bia mu diulu,+ bualu bundi tshiyi mutume dîyi bua kuenza.+
4 Padibu bakuambila bualu abu anyi paudi ubumvua, dîba adi neukebulule bualu abu bimpe menemene. Bobu bajadike bulelela+ ne: bualu bubi ebu mbuenzeke mu Isalele,
5 udi ne bua kuya ne muntu mulume anyi muntu mukaji udi muenze bualu bubi ebu ku biibi bia tshimenga, ne badi ne bua kushipa muntu mulume anyi muntu mukaji au ne mabue.+
6 Badi ne bua kushipa muntu udi mukumbanyine lufu au anu ku bujadiki* bua bantemu babidi anyi bantemu basatu.+ Kabena ne bua kumushipa ku bujadiki bua ntemu umue to.+
7 Bianza bia bantemu abu ke bikala bia kumpala bua kubanga kumushipa, ne bianza bia bantu bonso nebilonde pashishe. Udi ne bua kumbusha malu mabi munkatshi muebe.+
8 “Bikalaku kujuke tshilumbu tshidi tshipite bukole bua kutshikosa mu tshimue tshia ku bimenga biebe, nansha tshiotshi tshikale tshilumbu tshidi tshitangila diela mashi panshi,+ anyi muntu yeye mulue kufunda mukuabu, anyi mbenze bualu kampanda bua tshikisu, anyi bilumbu bikuabu bia bantu bakokangana, neujuke, wewe kuya muaba udi Yehowa Nzambi webe usungula.+
9 Uye kudi bakuidi bena Lewi ne kudi mulumbuluishi+ udi ulumbuluisha mu matuku au, ubakuatshile tshilumbu, ne bobu nebakuambile tshia kuenza.+
10 Nunku udi ne bua kuenza malu bilondeshile tshidibu bakuambila muaba udi Yehowa usungula. Udimuke bua kuenza malu bilondeshile bionso bidibu bakuambila.
11 Udi ne bua kuenza malu bilondeshile mukenji udibu bakuleje, ne bilondeshile tshidibu bakuambile bua kuenza.+ Kubengi tshiakuambilabu bua kuenza, wenza tshia tshianana, uya ku dia balume anyi ku dia bakaji to.+
12 Muntu udi wenza malu ne dikamakama, kayi uteleja muakuidi udi wenzela Yehowa Nzambi webe mudimu anyi kayi uteleja mulumbuluishi, udi ne bua kufua.+ Udi ne bua kumbusha malu mabi mu Isalele.+
13 Dîba adi bantu bonso nebumvue, nebikale ne buôwa, ne kabakuenza kabidi malu ne dikamakama to.+
14 “Paudi ubuela mu buloba budi Yehowa Nzambi webe ukupesha, ubuangata ne usombamu, wewe muambe ne: ‘Nditekele mukalenge ku mutu kuanyi bu mudi bisamba bionso bidi binnyunguluke bienza,’+
15 dîba adi, kakuyi mpata neuteke mukalenge udi Yehowa Nzambi webe usungula.+ Neuteke mukalenge wa munkatshi mua bana benu. Mbakukandike bua kuditekela muntu wa ku babende udi kayi muanenu ku mutu kuebe.
16 Kadi yeye kena ne bua kudikebela tubalu tua bungi+ anyi kupingaja bantu mu Ejipitu bua kupetaye tubalu tupite bungi,+ bualu Yehowa uvua munuambile ne: ‘Kanuena ne bua kupinganyina kabidi mu njila eu to.’
17 Kena nansha ne bua kusela bakaji ba bungi, bua muoyo wende kawulu kupambuka;+ anyi kena ne bua kupeta arjan ne or bia bungi menemene to.+
18 Padiye usomba mu nkuasa wa bukalenge buende, yeye udi ne bua kudifundila mukanda,* utentulamu Mikenji eyi, uyitentula mu mukanda udi bakuidi bena Lewi nawu.+
19 “Neashale nawu, ne yeye udi ne bua kuwubala matuku ende onso a muoyo,+ bua alonge bua kutshina Yehowa Nzambi wende ne alame mêyi onso a mu Mikenji eyi ne mêyi ne mikandu ebi pa kubitumikila.+
20 Nunku muoyo wende kawakudibandisha ku mutu kua bana babu ne kakusesuka ku dîyi edi bua kuya ku dia balume anyi ku dia bakaji bua ashale matuku a bungi mu bukalenge buende, yeye ne bana bende munkatshi mua Isalele.
