“ ‘Tewabanga omuntu yenna mu mmwe ajja eri munne gw’alinako oluganda ne yeebaka naye. Nze Mukama.

(E)“ ‘Toleeteranga kitaawo buswavu ng’okola ebyensonyi ne nnyoko. Oyo ye maama wo eyakuzaala, teweebakanga naye ne mukola ebyensonyi, n’omuleetako obuswavu.

(F)“ ‘Teweebakanga na muka kitaawo ne mukola ebyensonyi, ekyo kireetera kitaawo obuswavu ne kimumalamu ekitiibwa.

(G)“ ‘Teweebakanga na mwannyoko, azaalibwa kitaawo, oba azaalibwa nnyoko, ne bwe muba nga mwakulira mu maka gamu oba nga temwakulira wamu, tomukolangako bya nsonyi okumuleetera obuswavu.

10 “ ‘Teweebakanga na muwala azaalibwa mutabani wo, oba muwala w’omwana wo omuwala, n’okola naye ebyensonyi; ekyo ne kikuleetako obuswavu.

11 “ ‘Teweebakanga na mwana wa muka kitaawo ow’obuwala eyazaalibwa kitaawo n’omukolako ebyensonyi; oyo mwannyoko. Tomuleeteranga bya buswavu.

12 (H)“ ‘Teweebakanga na mwannyina wa kitaawo n’okola naye ebyensonyi; oyo ne kitaawo ba musaayi gwe gumu.

13 “ ‘Teweebakanga na muwala bwe bazaalibwa ne nnyoko n’okola naye ebyensonyi; kubanga oyo ne nnyoko ba musaayi gwe gumu.

14 (I)“ ‘Toweebuulanga muganda wa kitaawo, ng’olaga eri mukazi we weebake naye mukole ebyensonyi; oyo maama wo omuto.

15 (J)“ ‘Teweebakanga na muka mutabani wo ne mukola ebyensonyi; kubanga oyo ye mukyala wa mutabani wo; tomuleeteranga bya buswavu.

16 (K)“ ‘Teweebakanga na muka muganda wo ne mukola ebyensonyi, kubanga ekyo kinaaleeteranga muganda wo obuswavu.

17 (L)“ ‘Teweebakanga na mukazi ate ne muwala we n’okola nabo ebyensonyi. Era teweebakanga na mwana muwala owa mutabani wa mukazi oyo oba na mwana muwala owa muwala we; kubanga abo ba musaayi gwe gumu n’ogw’omukazi oyo. Ekyo kibi kinene.

18 “ ‘Toleetanga mukazi nga muganda wa mukyala wo ne badda mu kuvuganya, era ne weebaka naye ne mukola ebyensonyi nga mukyala wo akyali mulamu.

19 (M)“ ‘Tosembereranga mukazi ng’oyagala weebake naye omukoleko ebyensonyi ng’ali mu kiseera kye ekya buli mwezi eky’okuvaamu omusaayi mw’abeerera atali mulongoofu.

20 (N)“ ‘Teweebakanga na mukyala wa munnansi yammwe okumukolako ebyensonyi, n’akuleetera obutali bulongoofu.

21 (O)“ ‘Mu baana bo towangayo n’omu ng’ekiweebwayo ekyokeddwa mu muliro eri Moleki, kubanga erinnya lya Katonda wo tosaanira kuliweebuulanga. Nze Mukama.

22 (P)“ ‘Teweebakanga na musajja nga bwe wandyebase n’omukazi, ekyo kibi ekikyayibwa ennyo.

23 (Q)“ ‘Tokolanga bya nsonyi ku nsolo kubanga ekyo kinaakufuulanga atali mulongoofu. Omukazi teyeewangayo eri ensolo emukoleko ebyensonyi, okwo kwe kuwabira ddala.

24 (R)“ ‘Temwereetangako obutali bulongoofu nga mugoberera amayisa ago amabi; kubanga n’amawanga ge ŋŋenda okugoba mu nsi mwe mujja okuyingira bwe geefuula bwe gatyo agatali malongoofu; 25 (S)n’ensi n’efuuka etali nnongoofu, ne ngibonereza olw’ebyonoono byayo, n’abantu baamu abagibeeramu n’ebasesema. 26 Naye mmwe mukuumenga ebiragiro byange n’amateeka gange. Abazaaliranwa ne bannamawanga abali mu mmwe tewabanga n’omu anaakolanga ku bintu ebyo n’akatono ebikyayibwa ennyo bwe bityo. 27 Kubanga ebintu ebyo byonna byakolebwanga abantu abaabasooka mmwe okubeera mu nsi omwo, ensi n’efuuka etali nnongoofu. 28 Ensi eyo bwe muligifuula etali nnongoofu, egenda kubasesema nga bwe yasesema amawanga agaabasooka okugibeeramu.

29 “ ‘Abantu bonna abanaakolanga ebintu ebyo ebibi ebikyayibwa ennyo, abantu ng’abo banaagobwanga ne bagaanibwa okukolagana ne bannaabwe. 30 (T)Mukwatenga amateeka gange, nga mwewalanga okukola ebyonoono ebyo ebikyayibwa eby’amayisa amabi, abo abaabasooka ge beeyisanga si kulwa nga gabafuula abatali balongoofu. Nze Mukama Katonda wammwe.’ ”
