320:3 Ma 6:14; Yer 35:15Tobeeranga na bakatonda balala wabula Nze nzekka.
420:4 Lv 26:1; Ma 4:15-19, 23; 27:15Teweekoleranga kintu kyonna ekyole ekifaanana n’ekintu kyonna ekiri waggulu mu ggulu, oba wansi ku nsi, oba ekiri mu mazzi agali wansi w’ensi. 520:5 a Is 44:15, 17, 19 b Kuv 34:14; Ma 4:24 c Kbl 14:18; Yer 32:18Tobivuunamiranga so tobisinzanga. Kubanga, nze Mukama Katonda wo ndi Katonda wa buggya; mbonereza abaana olw’ebibi bya bakitaabwe n’ebya bajjajjaabwe okutuusa ku mulembe ogwokusatu n’ogwokuna ogw’abo abankyawa. 620:6 Ma 7:9Naye abo enkumi n’enkumi abanjagala era abakwata amateeka gange, mbalaga okwagala kwange okutaggwaawo.
720:7 Lv 19:12; Mat 5:33Tokozesanga linnya lya Mukama Katonda wo ng’olayira ebitaliimu nsa; kubanga Mukama talirema kumusalira musango ne gumusinga omuntu oyo alayirira obwereere erinnya lye.
820:8 Kuv 31:13-16; Lv 26:2Olunaku lwa Ssabbiiti lujjukirenga era olutukuzenga. 920:9 Kuv 34:21; Luk 13:14Kolanga emirimu gyo, ofaabiine mu nnaku omukaaga, 10naye olunaku olw’omusanvu ye Ssabbiiti ya Mukama Katonda wo. Ku lunaku olwo tokolerangako mulimu gwonna; ggwe, wadde mutabani wo, wadde muwala wo, wadde omuweereza wo omusajja, oba omuweereza wo omukazi, wadde ensolo zo, wadde omugenyi ali omumwo. 1120:11 Lub 2:2Kubanga mu nnaku omukaaga Mukama Katonda mwe yakolera eggulu n’ensi, n’ennyanja, ne byonna ebibirimu, n’awummulira ku lunaku olw’omusanvu. Mukama kyeyava awa omukisa olunaku olwa Ssabbiiti n’alutukuza.
1220:12 Mat 15:4*; Mak 7:10*; Bef 6:2Kitaawo ne nnyoko obassangamu ekitiibwa, olyoke owangaale mu nsi Mukama Katonda wo gy’akuwa.

1720:17 Bar 7:7*; 13:9*Teweegombanga nnyumba ya muliraanwa wo. Teweegombanga mukazi wa muliraanwa wo, newaakubadde omuweereza we omusajja, newaakubadde omuweereza we omukazi, wadde ente ye, oba endogoyi ye, oba ekintu kyonna ekya muntu munno.”
1820:18 Kuv 19:16-19; Beb 12:18-19Awo abantu bwe baalaba okumyansa kw’eraddu, ne bawulira n’okubwatuka kw’eggulu awamu n’eddoboozi ly’akagombe, ne balaba n’olusozi nga lunyooka ne bakankana nga batidde nnyo. Ne bayimirira walako, 1920:19 Ma 5:5, 23-27; Bag 3:19ne bagamba Musa nti, “Ggwe yogera naffe, tujja kubiwuliriza. Naye Katonda aleme kwogera naffe tuleme okufa.”
2020:20 a Ma 4:10; Is 8:13 b Nge 16:6Musa n’agamba abantu nti, “Temutya, kubanga Katonda azze kubagezesa, mumutyenga bulijjo, mulyoke muleme okwonoona.”
Ebiragiro ku Byoto
2120:21 Ma 5:22Abantu ne basigala nga bayimiridde walako, naye Musa n’asembera mu kizikiza ekikwafu Katonda mwe yali. 2220:22 Nek 9:13Mukama n’agamba Musa nti, “Bw’oti bw’oba otegeeza abaana ba Isirayiri nti, ‘Mmwe bennyini mwerabiddeko nga njogera nammwe nga nsinziira mu ggulu. 2320:23 a nny 3 b Kuv 32:4, 8, 31Temwekoleranga bakatonda balala wendi; temwekoleranga bakatonda ba ffeeza oba bakatonda ba zaabu.
2420:24 a Ma 12:5; 16:6, 11; 2By 6:6 b Lub 12:2“ ‘Munkolere ekyoto eky’ettaka, muweereyo okwo ssaddaaka zammwe ezookebwa, n’essaddaaka olw’emirembe, ey’endiga zo n’ente zo. Mu buli kifo mwe nnaaleeteranga erinnya lyange okuweebwa ekitiibwa, nnajjanga ne mbaweera omwo omukisa. 2520:25 Ma 27:5-6Bwe munzimbiranga ekyoto eky’amayinja, temukizimbisanga mayinja mayooyoote, kubanga ekyuma bwe kirigakoonako kirigafuula agatasaanira kyoto kyange. 26Ekyoto kyange temukizimbangako madaala, muleme okukiweebuula nga mulinnya amadaala.’ ”
The Ten Commandments
1And God spoke all these words:
2‘I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of Egypt, out of the land of slavery.
3‘You shall have no other gods before20:3 Or besides me.
4You shall not make for yourself an image in the form of anything in heaven above or on the earth beneath or in the waters below. 5You shall not bow down to them or worship them; for I, the Lord your God, am a jealous God, punishing the children for the sin of the parents to the third and fourth generation of those who hate me, 6but showing love to a thousand generations of those who love me and keep my commandments.
7You shall not misuse the name of the Lord your God, for the Lord will not hold anyone guiltless who misuses his name.
8Remember the Sabbath day by keeping it holy. 9Six days you shall labour and do all your work, 10but the seventh day is a sabbath to the Lord your God. On it you shall not do any work, neither you, nor your son or daughter, nor your male or female servant, nor your animals, nor any foreigner residing in your towns. 11For in six days the Lord made the heavens and the earth, the sea, and all that is in them, but he rested on the seventh day. Therefore the Lord blessed the Sabbath day and made it holy.
12Honour your father and your mother, so that you may live long in the land the Lord your God is giving you.
13You shall not murder.
14You shall not commit adultery.
15You shall not steal.
16You shall not give false testimony against your neighbour.
17You shall not covet your neighbour’s house. You shall not covet your neighbour’s wife, or his male or female servant, his ox or donkey, or anything that belongs to your neighbour.’
18When the people saw the thunder and lightning and heard the trumpet and saw the mountain in smoke, they trembled with fear. They stayed at a distance 19and said to Moses, ‘Speak to us yourself and we will listen. But do not let God speak to us or we will die.’
20Moses said to the people, ‘Do not be afraid. God has come to test you, so that the fear of God will be with you to keep you from sinning.’
21The people remained at a distance, while Moses approached the thick darkness where God was.
Idols and altars
22Then the Lord said to Moses, ‘Tell the Israelites this: “You have seen for yourselves that I have spoken to you from heaven: 23do not make any gods to be alongside me; do not make for yourselves gods of silver or gods of gold.
24‘ “Make an altar of earth for me and sacrifice on it your burnt offerings and fellowship offerings, your sheep and goats and your cattle. Wherever I cause my name to be honoured, I will come to you and bless you. 25If you make an altar of stones for me, do not build it with dressed stones, for you will defile it if you use a tool on it. 26And do not go up to my altar on steps, or your private parts may be exposed.”
