¹Musazviitira zvifananidzo, kana kuzvimutsira mufananidzo wakavezwa kana shongwe yebwe; musaisa ibwe rinomufananidzo munyika yenyu kuti mupfugamirepo, nekuti ndini Jehovha Mwari wenyu.

¹Ye shall make you no idols, neither shall ye rear you up a graven image, or a pillar, neither shall ye place any figured stone in your land, to bow down unto it: for I am Jehovah your God.

²Munofanira kuchengeta masabata angu, nokukudza imba yangu tsvene; ndini Jehovha.

²Ye shall keep my sabbaths, and reverence my sanctuary: I am Jehovah.

³Kana muchifamba nemitemo yangu, nokuchengeta mirairo yangu, muchiiita;

³If ye walk in my statutes, and keep my commandments, and do them;

⁴ini ndichakunisirai mvura nenguva yayo, nenyika ichabereka zvibereko zvayo, nemiti yesango ichabereka zvibereko zvayo.

⁴then I will give your rains in their season, and the land shall yield its increase, and the trees of the field shall yield their fruit.

⁵Kupura kwenyu kuchasvika pakukohwa mazambiringa, nokukohwa mazambiringa kuchasvika panguva yokudzvara; muchadya zvokudya zvenyu mukaguta, nokugara munyika yenyu makachengeteka.

⁵And your threshing shall reach unto the vintage, and the vintage shall reach unto the sowing time; and ye shall eat your bread to the full, and dwell in your land safely.

⁶Ndichakupai rugare panyika, kuti muvate pasi musingavhunduswi nomunhu; zvikara ndichazvipedza panyika, nomunondo haungapfuuri nomunyika yenyu,

⁶And I will give peace in the land, and ye shall lie down, and none shall make you afraid: and I will cause evil beasts to cease out of the land, neither shall the sword go through your land.

⁷muchadzinga vavengi venyu, vakaparadzwa nomunondo pamberi penyu.

⁷And ye shall chase your enemies, and they shall fall before you by the sword.

⁸Vashanu venyu vachadzinga vane zana, navane zana venyu vachadzinga vane zviuru zvine gumi, vavengi venyu vachaparadzwa nomunondo pamberi penyu.

⁸And five of you shall chase a hundred, and a hundred of you shall chase ten thousand; and your enemies shall fall before you by the sword.

⁹Ini ndichakurangarirai, ndichakuberekesai nokukuwanzai; ndichasimbisa sungano yangu nemi.

⁹And I will have respect unto you, and make you fruitful, and multiply you, and will establish my covenant with you.

¹⁰Muchadya zviyo zvakachengetwa nguva huru, muchafanira kubudisa zvekare kudziurira zvitsva.

¹⁰And ye shall eat old store long kept, and ye shall bring forth the old because of the new.

¹¹Ndichagadza tabhenakeri yangu pakati penyu; mweya wangu haungakusemiyi.

¹¹And I will set my tabernacle among you: and my soul shall not abhor you.

¹²Uye ndichafamba pakati penyu, ndive Mwari wenyu, nemwi muchava vanhu vangu.

¹²And I will walk among you, and will be your God, and ye shall be my people.

¹³Ndini Jehovha Mwari wenyu, wakakubudisai munyika yeEgipita, kuti murege kuva vatapwa vavo; ndakavhuna matanda ejoko renyu, ndikakufambisai makati tasa.

¹³I am Jehovah your God, who brought you forth out of the land of Egypt, that ye should not be their bondmen; and I have broken the bars of your yoke, and made you go upright.

¹⁴Asi kana musingadi kunditeerera, musingadi kuita mirairo iyi yose;

¹⁴But if ye will not hearken unto me, and will not do all these commandments;

¹⁵kana muchiramba mitemo yangu, kana mweya yenyu ichisema zvandakatonga, kuti murege kuda kuita mirairo yangu yose, asi muchiputsa sungano yangu,

¹⁵and if ye shall reject my statutes, and if your soul abhor mine ordinances, so that ye will not do all my commandments, but break my covenant;

¹⁶neniwo ndichakuitirai izvi: Ndichauyisa zvinotyisa pamusoro penyu, hosha yorukosoro nefivhiri zvichaparadza meso nokuwondisa mweya yenyu; muchadzvara mbeu yenyu pasina, nekuti vavengi venyu vachazvidya.

¹⁶I also will do this unto you: I will appoint terror over you, even consumption and fever, that shall consume the eyes, and make the soul to pine away; and ye shall sow your seed in vain, for your enemies shall eat it.

¹⁷Ndichakutongai kuti mukundwe pamberi pavavengi venyu, vanokuvengai vachava vabati venyu; muchatiza kunyange kusina munhu unokudzingai.

¹⁷And I will set my face against you, and ye shall be smitten before your enemies: they that hate you shall rule over you; and ye shall flee when none pursueth you.

¹⁸Zvino kunyange zvakadaro kana musingadi kunditeerera, ndichawedzera kukurovai kanomwe pamusoro pezvivi zvenyu.

¹⁸And if ye will not yet for these things hearken unto me, then I will chastise you seven times more for your sins.

¹⁹Ndichaputsa kuzvikudza kwenyu pamusoro pesimba renyu, denga renyu ndichariita sesimbi, nenyika yenyu sendarira;

¹⁹And I will break the pride of your power: and I will make your heaven as iron, and your earth as brass;

²⁰simba renyu richaperera pasina, nekuti nyika yenyu haingabereki zvibereko zvayo, nemiti yenyika haingabereki zvibereko zvayo.

²⁰and your strength shall be spent in vain; for your land shall not yield its increase, neither shall the trees of the land yield their fruit.

²¹Kana muchindiramba, musingadi kunditeerera, ndichawedzera kanomwe matambudziko pamusoro pezvivi zvenyu.

²¹And if ye walk contrary unto me, and will not hearken unto me, I will bring seven times more plagues upon you according to your sins.

²²Ndichatuma zvikara zvesango pakati penyu, zvichakupedzerai vana venyu, nokuparadza zvipfuwo zvenyu, nokukutapudzai; nzira dzenyu dzichashaiwa vanhu.

²²And I will send the beast of the field among you, which shall rob you of your children, and destroy your cattle, and make you few in number; and your ways shall become desolate.

²³Zvino kana musingadi kudzorwa neni nezvinhu izvi, asi muchindiramba,

²³And if by these things ye will not be reformed unto me, but will walk contrary unto me;

²⁴neniwo ndichakurambai; neniwo, ini ndimene, ndichakurovai kanomwe pamusoro pezvivi zvenyu.

²⁴then will I also walk contrary unto you; and I will smite you, even I, seven times for your sins.

²⁵Ndichauyisa munondo pamusoro penyu, uchatsiva sungano yangu; muchaunganidzwa mumaguta enyu, ini ndichatuma matenda pakati penyu; muchaiswa mumaoko avavengi venyu.

²⁵And I will bring a sword upon you, that shall execute the vengeance of the covenant; and ye shall be gathered together within your cities: and I will send the pestilence among you; and ye shall be delivered into the hand of the enemy.

²⁶Kana ndichivhuna mudonzvo wenyu wechingwa, vakadzi vane gumi vachabika chingwa muchoto chimwe, vachikudzoserai chingwa chenyu chayerwa; muchadya, asi hamungaguti.

²⁶When I break your staff of bread, ten women shall bake your bread in one oven, and they shall deliver your bread again by weight: and ye shall eat, and not be satisfied.

²⁷Zvino kana musingadi naizvozvo zvose kunditeerera, asi muchindiramba,

²⁷And if ye will not for all this hearken unto me, but walk contrary unto me;

²⁸ipapo neniwo ndichakurambai nokutsamwa kukuru; ndichakurovai kanomwe pamusoro pezvivi zvenyu.

²⁸then I will walk contrary unto you in wrath; and I also will chastise you seven times for your sins.

²⁹Muchadya nyama yavanakomana venyu, nenyama yavanasikana venyu muchaidya.

²⁹And ye shall eat the flesh of your sons, and the flesh of your daughters shall ye eat.

³⁰Ndichaparadza nzvimbo dzenyu dzakakwirira, nokuputsa mifananidzo yenyu yezuva, nokukanda zvitunha zvenyu pamusoro pezvitunha zvezvifananidzo zvenyu; mweya wangu uchakusemai.

³⁰And I will destroy your high places, and cut down your sun-images, and cast your dead bodies upon the bodies of your idols; and my soul shall abhor you.

³¹Ndichaita maguta enyu matongo, nenzvimbo dzenyu tsene ndichadziparadza handinganhuwidzi munhuwi wezvinozipa zvenyu.

³¹And I will make your cities a waste, and will bring your sanctuaries unto desolation, and I will not smell the savor of your sweet odors.

³²Ndichaparadza nyika yenyu; vavengi venyu vachagaramo, vachashamiswa nazvo.

³²And I will bring the land into desolation; and your enemies that dwell therein shall be astonished at it.

³³Ndichakurashanyai pakati pavahedheni, nokuvhomora munondo shure kwenyu; nyika yenyu ichava renje, maguta enyu achava matongo.

³³And you will I scatter among the nations, and I will draw out the sword after you: and your land shall be a desolation, and your cities shall be a waste.

³⁴Zvino nyika ichafarira masabata ayo, panguva yokuparadzwa kwayo, imwi muri munyika yavavengi venyu; panguva iyo nyika ichazorora, ichifarira masabata ayo.

³⁴Then shall the land enjoy its sabbaths, as long as it lieth desolate, and ye are in your enemies' land; even then shall the land rest, and enjoy its sabbaths.

³⁵Panguva yose yokuparadzwa kwayo ichazorora nokuzorora kwayakashaiwa pamasabata enyu, panguva yamakagaramo.

³⁵As long as it lieth desolate it shall have rest, even the rest which it had not in your sabbaths, when ye dwelt upon it.

³⁶Kana vari vamwe venyu vakasara, ndichatuma kutya pamoyo yavo vari munyika yavavengi vavo; kana vachinzwa shizha richipepereka, vachatiza; vachatiza somunhu unotiza munondo, vachawa kunyange kusina munhu unovadzinga.

³⁶And as for them that are left of you, I will send a faintness into their heart in the lands of their enemies: and the sound of a driven leaf shall chase them; and they shall flee, as one fleeth from the sword; and they shall fall when none pursueth.

³⁷Vachawirana savanhu vanowa pamberi pomunondo, kusina munhu anovadzinga; hamungavi nesimba rokumira pamberi pavavengi venyu.

³⁷And they shall stumble one upon another, as it were before the sword, when none pursueth: and ye shall have no power to stand before your enemies.

³⁸Muchandofira pakati pavahedheni, nenyika yavavengi venyu ichakudyai.

³⁸And ye shall perish among the nations, and the land of your enemies shall eat you up.

³⁹Vamwe venyu vakasara vachawonda muzvivi zvavo panyika yavavengi vavo; vachawonda samadzibaba avo akawonda muzvivi zvavo.

³⁹And they that are left of you shall pine away in their iniquity in your enemies' lands; and also in the iniquities of their fathers shall they pine away with them.

⁴⁰Zvino vachazvireurura zvivi zvavo nezvivi zvamadzibaba avo, nokudarika kwavakadarika nako kwandiri, uye zvavakandiramba,

⁴⁰And they shall confess their iniquity, and the iniquity of their fathers, in their trespass which they trespassed against me, and also that, because they walked contrary unto me,

⁴¹neniwo ndakavaramba, ndikavaisa kunyika yavavengi vavo; zvino kana moyo yavo isina kudzingiswa ikazvininipisa, vakatenda kurohwa pamusoro pezvivi zvavo;

⁴¹I also walked contrary unto them, and brought them into the land of their enemies: if then their uncircumcised heart be humbled, and they then accept of the punishment of their iniquity;

⁴²ipapo ndicharangarira sungano yangu naJakove; nesungano yangu naIsaka, nesungano yangu naAbhurahamu, ndichairangarira; nyika ndichairangarirawo.

⁴²then will I remember my covenant with Jacob; and also my covenant with Isaac, and also my covenant with Abraham will I remember; and I will remember the land.

⁴³Nyika ichafanira kusiiwa navo, kuti ifarire masabata ayo ichaparadzwa ivo vasipo; vacharohwa pamusoro pezvivi zvavo, nekuti vakaramba zvandakanga ndatonga, mweya yavo ikasema mitemo yangu.

⁴³The land also shall be left by them, and shall enjoy its sabbaths, while it lieth desolate without them: and they shall accept of the punishment of their iniquity; because, even because they rejected mine ordinances, and their soul abhorred my statutes.

⁴⁴Kunyange zvakadaro, kana vari munyika yavavengi vavo, handingavarashi, handigavasemi, ndivaparadze chose, nokuputsa sungano yangu navo; nekuti ndini Jehovha Mwari wavo;

⁴⁴And yet for all that, when they are in the land of their enemies, I will not reject them, neither will I abhor them, to destroy them utterly, and to break my covenant with them; for I am Jehovah their God;

⁴⁵asi nokuda kwavo ndicharangarira sungano yangu namadziteteguru avo, vandakabudisa munyika yeEgipita pamberi pavahedheni, kuti ndive Mwari wavo; ndini Jehovha.

⁴⁵but I will for their sakes remember the covenant of their ancestors, whom I brought forth out of the land of Egypt in the sight of the nations, that I might be their God: I am Jehovah.

⁴⁶Ndiyo mitemo nezvakatongwa nemirairo yakaitwa naJehovha pakati pake navana vaIsiraeri pagomo reSinai nomuromo waMozisi.

⁴⁶These are the statutes and ordinances and laws, which Jehovah made between him and the children of Israel in mount Sinai by Moses.
