iDuteronomi iDuteronomi 12 - Contemporary Xhosa Bible 2024

1Yiyo le imimiselo namasiko, owoyigcina, wenze ezweni elo, akunikayo uYehova uThixo wooyihlo, ukuba ulime yonke imihla yobomi bakho emhlabeni.

2Niya kuziqalekisa zonke iindawo eziya kuthi iintlanga nizidle ilifa zikhonze uthixo wazo ezintabeni eziphakamileyo nakwiinduli naphantsi kwemithi yonke eluhlaza;

3nizidilize izibingelelo zabo, niziqhekeze izimiso zabo zamatye, nizitshise ngomlilo iziqu zabo; yigawuleni imifanekiso eqingqiweyo yoothixo bazo nize niwacime amagama azo kuloo ndawo.

4Uze ungenjenjalo kuYehova uThixo wakho.

5Kodwa endaweni aya kuyinyula uYehova uThixo wenu ezizukulwaneni zenu zonke, ukuba alimise kuyo igama lakhe, kuleyo ndawo ahlala kuyo, eniya kuyimisela khona.

6Zisani khona amadini enu anyukayo, nemibingelelo yenu, nezishumi zenu, nomnikelo wokudla esandleni senu, nezibhambathiso zenu, nemibingelelo yenu yokuqhutywa yintliziyo, namazibulo eenkomo zenu, nasempahleni yenu emfutshane;

7nidle khona phambi koYehova uThixo wenu, nivuye ngenxa yento yonke eniya kuyibeka izandla zenu, nina nezindlu zenu, akusikeleleyo ngazo uYehova uThixo wakho.

8Musani ukwenza ngokwezinto zonke esizenzayo apha namhla, ukuba wonke umntu ozibona lilungisa kwawakhe amehlo.

9Kuba okwangoku anikafiki kwindawo yokuphumla nelizwe akunika lona uYehova uThixo wakho.

10Xa nithe nayiwela iYordan, nahlala ezweni elo, aninikayo uYehova uThixo wenu, ukuba libe lilifa lenu, waniphumza ezintshabeni zenu zonke ezingeenxa zonke kuni, nahlala ninoxolo;

11Kothi ke kubekho indawo aya kuyinyula uYehova uThixo wakho, alibeke kuyo igama lakhe; uya kuzisa khona zonke izinto endikuwisele umthetho ngazo; amadini enu anyukayo, nemibingelelo yenu, nezishumi zenu, nomrhumo wezandla zenu, nezibhambathiso zenu ezikhethekileyo, enibhambathise ngazo kuYehova;

12nivuye phambi koYehova uThixo wenu, nina noonyana benu, neentombi zenu, nabakhonzi benu, nezicakakazi zenu, nomLevi emasangweni enu; ngokuba akanasabelo nalifa nani.

13Uze uzigcine ungawanyuseli amadini akho anyukayo ezindaweni zonke ozibonayo.

14Ke endaweni leyo aya kuyinyula uYehova kwesinye sezizwe zakowenu, wowanyusa khona amadini akho anyukayo, ukwenze khona konke endikuwisela umthetho ngako.

15Kodwa inyama ungayixhela emasangweni akho onke uze udle ukutya okunqwenelwa ngumphefumlo wakho ngokwentsikelelo kaYehova uThixo wakho akunikileyo; intliziyo.

16Musani ukulidla igazi; liphalaze njengamanzi.

17Uze ungasidli isishumi sakho sengqolowa, nesewayini yakho entsha, neseoli yakho, nesamazibulo eenkomo zakho, nempahla yakho emfutshane, nesibhambathiso sakho osifungeleyo, nombingelelo wakho wokuqhutywa yintliziyo, nowokuqhutywa yintliziyo iminikelo hayi umnikelo wesandla sakho:

18Uze uzidlele phambi koYehova uThixo wakho endaweni leyo aya kuyinyula uYehova uThixo wakho, wena nonyana wakho nentombi yakho nekhoboka lakho nesicakakazi sakho nomLevi emasangweni akho; nibe nemihlali phambi koYehova uThixo wenu ngenxa yayo yonke into eniya kuyibeka izandla.

19Uze uzilumkele ukuba ungamshiyi umLevi yonke imihla yobomi bakho emhlabeni.

20Xa athe uYehova uThixo wakho wawenza banzi umda wakho, njengoko abethethe ngako kuwe, uthi, Ndiya kudla inyama, ngokuba umphefumlo wakho unqwenela ukuyidla inyama; ungadla inyama, ngokunqwena konke komphefumlo wakho.

21Ukuba ithe yakude kuwe indawo leyo, athe uYehova uThixo wakho wayinyulela ukulibeka kuyo igama lakhe, woxhela iinkomo zakho, nempahla yakho emfutshane, akunikileyo uYehova, njengoko ndakuwiselayo umthetho, udle emasangweni akho onke into oyinqwenelayo umphefumlo wakho.

22Uya kubadla njengokudliwa kwexhama nexhama; oyinqambi nohlambulukileyo boyidla ngokulinganayo.

23Lumkani, ningalidli igazi, kuba igazi libubomi; musani ukudla ubomi nenyama.

24Ungalidli; uyawuphalaza njengamanzi.

25Musani ukuyidla; ukuze kulunge kuwe, wena nabantwana bakho emva kwakho, ukuba nenza okulungileyo emehlweni kaYehova.

26Kuphela zizipho zakho ezingcwele onazo, nezibhambathiso zakho, onokuthi uhambe uye kwindawo aya kuyinyula uYehova;

27wenze amadini akho anyukayo, ngenyama negazi, esibingelelweni sikaYehova uThixo wakho; igazi lomnikelo wakho woligalela esibingelelweni sikaYehova uThixo wakho, uyidle inyama wena.

28Yivani nize niwaphulaphule la mazwi onke ndiniyalela wona, ukuze kulunge kuwe nakoonyana bakho emva kwakho ukusa kwixesha elingenammiselo, ukuba uthe wenza okulungileyo nokufanelekileyo emehlweni kaYehova uThixo wakho.

29Ngenxa enokuba uYehova uThixo wakho wazitshabalalisa phambi kwakho iintlanga, lowo ungena kuzo ukuba uzihluthe, ke wena wazilandela, wahlala ezweni lazo;

30Zilumkele ukuba ungaweli emgibeni wokuzilandela emva kokuba zitshatyalalisiwe phambi kwakho; ukuze ungabuzi koothixo bazo, uthi, Zibe zisithini na ezi ntlanga ukubakhonza oothixo bazo? Ndiza kwenza njalo.

31Uze ungenjenjalo kuYehova uThixo wakho; ngokuba ziyenzile koothixo bazo zonke izinto ezingamasikizi kuYehova, awazithiyileyo; ngenxa yokuba kwanoonyana bazo neentombi zabo babebatshisa oothixo bazo ngomlilo.

32Konke endikuwisela umthetho ngako, uze ukwenze ngenyameko;
