1Zvino Jehovha wakataura naMozisi akati,
1And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
2Taura navana vaIsiraeri, uti kwavari, Ndini Jehovha, Mwari wenyu.
2Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, I am the LORD your God.
3Regai kuita sezvakanga zvichiitwa panyika yeEgipita mamakanga mugere, uye regai kuita sezvinoitwa panyika yeKanani, kwandichazokuisai; musafamba netsika dzavo.
3After the doings of the land of Egypt, wherein ye dwelt, shall ye not do: and after the doings of the land of Canaan, whither I bring you, shall ye not do: neither shall ye walk in their ordinances.
4Itai zvandakatonga ini, chengetai zviga zvangu, kuti mufambe mazviri; ndini Jehovha, Mwari wenyu.
4Ye shall do my judgments, and keep mine ordinances, to walk therein: I am the LORD your God.
5Naizvozvo chengetai zviga zvangu, nezvandakatonga; kana munhu akazviita uchararama nazvo; ndini Jehovha.
5Ye shall therefore keep my statutes, and my judgments: which if a man do, he shall live in them: I am the LORD.
6Ngakurege kuva nomunhu unoswedera kuhama yake yomumba, kuti amufukure, ndini Jehovha.
6None of you shall approach to any that is near of kin to him, to uncover their nakedness: I am the LORD.
7Usafukura baba vako, namai vako; ndimai vako, usavafukura.
7The nakedness of thy father, or the nakedness of thy mother, shalt thou not uncover: she is thy mother; thou shalt not uncover her nakedness.
8Usafukura mukadzi wababa vako; ndiko kufukura baba vako.
8The nakedness of thy father's wife shalt thou not uncover: it is thy father's nakedness.
9Usafukura hanzvadzi yako, mwanasikana wababa vako, kana mwanasikana wamai vako, kana vakaberekerwa mumusha kana vakaberekerwa kumwe.
9The nakedness of thy sister, the daughter of thy father, or daughter of thy mother, whether she be born at home, or born abroad, even their nakedness thou shalt not uncover.
10Usafukura mwanasikana womwanakomana wako, kana mwanasikana womwanasikana wako; nekuti kufukurwa kwavo ndiko kwako.
10The nakedness of thy son's daughter, or of thy daughter's daughter, even their nakedness thou shalt not uncover: for theirs is thine own nakedness.
11Usafukura mwanasikana womukadzi wababa vako, wakaberekwa nababa vako, ihanzvadzi yako.
11The nakedness of thy father's wife's daughter, begotten of thy father, she is thy sister, thou shalt not uncover her nakedness.
12Usafukura vatete vako; ihama yomumba mababa vako.

13Usafukura mainini vako, nekuti ihama yomumba mamai vako.

14Usafukura babamunini vako, usaswedera kumukadzi wake, ndimainini vako.
14Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy father's brother, thou shalt not approach to his wife: she is thine aunt.
15Usafukura mukadzi womwanakomana wako, ndimukadzi womwanakomana wako; usamufukura.
15Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy daughter in law: she is thy son's wife; thou shalt not uncover her nakedness.
16Usafukura mukadzi womunin'ina wako, ndiko kufukurwa komwanakomana wako.
16Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy brother's wife: it is thy brother's nakedness.
17Usafukura mukadzi pamwechete nomwanasikana wake; usatora mwanasikana womwanakomana wake, kuti umufukure; ihama dzomumba; zvakashata.
17Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of a woman and her daughter, neither shalt thou take her son's daughter, or her daughter's daughter, to uncover her nakedness; for they are her near kinswomen: it is wickedness.
18Usatora mukadzi pamwechete nomunin'ina wake, arwidzane naye, kuti umufukure pamwechete nomumwe achiri mupenyu.
18Neither shalt thou take a wife to her sister, to vex her, to uncover her nakedness, beside the other in her life time.
19Usaswedera kumukadzi kuti umufukure, achakaipa nokuva kumwedzi kwake.
19Also thou shalt not approach unto a woman to uncover her nakedness, as long as she is put apart for her uncleanness.
20Usavata nomukadzi wowokwako panyama, kuti uzvisvibise naye.
20Moreover thou shalt not lie carnally with thy neighbor's wife, to defile thyself with her.
21Usapa mumwe wavana vako kuti apinde mumoto kuna Moreki, uye usamhura zita raMwari wako; ndini Jehovha.

22Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it is abomination.
23Usavata nechipfuwo chipi nechipi kuti uzvisvibise nacho; nomukadzi ngaarege kumira pamberi pechipfuwo kuti akwirwe nacho; zvinonyangadza kwazvo.
23Neither shalt thou lie with any beast to defile thyself therewith: neither shall any woman stand before a beast to lie down thereto: it is confusion.
24Regai kuzvisvibisa kune chinhu chimwe chaizvozvi; nekuti vahedheni vakasvibiswa nezvinhu izvi zvose, ivo vandakadzinga pamberi penyu;
24Defile not ye yourselves in any of these things: for in all these the nations are defiled which I cast out before you:
25nenyika yakasvibiswa; naizvozvo ndinoirova pamusoro pezvakaipa zvayo, nyika irutse vanhu vageremo.
25And the land is defiled: therefore I do visit the iniquity thereof upon it, and the land itself vomiteth out her inhabitants.
26Naizvozvo imwi chengetai mitemo yangu nezvandakatonga, kuti murege kuita chinhu chimwe chaizvozvo zvinonyangadza; kana ari wakaberekerwa munyika yenyu, kana ari mutorwa ugere pakati penyu.
26Ye shall therefore keep my statutes and my judgments, and shall not commit any of these abominations; neither any of your own nation, nor any stranger that sojourneth among you:
27(Nokuti vanhu venyika ino, vakakutangirai, vakaita zvinhu izvi zvose zvinonyangadza, nyika ikasvibiswa;)
27(For all these abominations have the men of the land done, which were before you, and the land is defiled;)
28kuti nyika irege kukurutsaiwo, kana muchiisvibisa, sezvayakarutsa vanhu vakakutangirai.
28That the land spue not you out also, when ye defile it, as it spued out the nations that were before you.
29Nekuti ani naani unoita chinhu chimwe chaizvozvi zvinonyangadza, vanhu vanozviita vachabviswa pakati porudzi rwavo.
29For whosoever shall commit any of these abominations, even the souls that commit them shall be cut off from among their people.
30Naizvozvo chengetai zvandakakurairai, kuti murege kuita tsika idzo dzose dzinonyangadza, dzaiitwa musati mavapo, kuti murege kuzvisvibisa nazvo; ndini Jehovha Mwari wenyu.
30Therefore shall ye keep mine ordinance, that ye commit not any one of these abominable customs, which were committed before you, and that ye defile not yourselves therein: I am the LORD your God.
