Deuteronomy 16
1 Observe the month of Abib, and keep the Passover to Jehovah thy God, for in the month of Abib Jehovah thy God brought thee forth out of Egypt by night.
Menyagĩrĩrai mweri wa Abibu na mũkũngũyagĩre Bathaka ya Jehova Ngai wanyu, nĩ ũndũ mweri-inĩ wa Abibu nĩguo aamũrutire bũrũri wa Misiri kũrĩ ũtukũ.
2 And thou shall sacrifice the Passover to Jehovah thy God, of the flock and the herd, in the place which Jehovah shall choose to cause his name to dwell there.
Nĩmũgathĩnjĩra Jehova Ngai wanyu igongona rĩa Bathaka rĩa nyamũ kuuma rũũru-inĩ rwanyu rwa mbũri kana rwa ngʼombe, mũcithĩnjĩre handũ harĩa Jehova agaathuura ha gũtũũria Rĩĩtwa rĩake.
3 Thou shall eat no leavened bread with it. Seven days thou shall eat unleavened bread with it, even the bread of affliction, for thou came forth out of the land of Egypt in haste, that thou may remember the day when thou came forth out of the land of Egypt all the days of thy life.
Mũtikanamĩrĩĩanĩrie na mĩgate mĩĩkĩre ndawa ya kũimbia, no ihinda rĩa mĩthenya mũgwanja mũrĩe mĩgate ĩtarĩ mĩimbie, arĩ yo mĩgate ya mĩnyamaro, nĩ ũndũ mwoimire bũrũri wa Misiri na ihenya, na nĩgeetha matukũ-inĩ mothe ma muoyo wanyu mũririkanage mũthenya ũcio mwoimire bũrũri wa Misiri.
4 And there shall be no leaven seen with thee in all thy borders seven days. Neither shall any of the flesh, which thou sacrifice the first day at evening, remain all night until the morning.
Ihinda rĩa mĩthenya mũgwanja mũtikanakorwo mũrĩ na ndawa ya kũimbia bũrũri-inĩ wanyu wothe. Mũtikanareke nyama o ciothe cia iria mũkũruta igongona hwaĩ-inĩ wa mũthenya wa mbere iraare nginya rũciinĩ.
5 Thou may not sacrifice the Passover within any of thy gates, which Jehovah thy God gives thee,
Mũtikanathĩnjĩre igongona rĩa Bathaka itũũra-inĩ o rĩothe kũrĩa Jehova Ngai wanyu ekũmũhe,
6 but at the place which Jehovah thy God shall choose to cause his name to dwell in, there thou shall sacrifice the Passover at evening, at the going down of the sun, at the season that thou came forth out of Egypt.
tiga o harĩa agaathuura ha gũtũũria Rĩĩtwa rĩake. Hau nĩho mũkaarutĩra igongona rĩa Bathaka hwaĩ-inĩ rĩrĩa riũa rĩthũaga, rĩtuĩke rĩa kũririkana ihinda rĩrĩa mwoimire bũrũri wa Misiri.
7 And thou shall roast and eat it in the place which Jehovah thy God shall choose, and thou shall turn in the morning, and go to thy tents.
Mũkaarĩhĩhĩria na mũrĩrĩĩre handũ hau Jehova Ngai wanyu agaathuura. Ningĩ kwarooka gũkĩa mũcooke hema-inĩ cianyu.
8 Six days thou shall eat unleavened bread, and on the seventh day shall be a solemn assembly to Jehovah thy God. Thou shall do no work.
Ihinda rĩa mĩthenya ĩtandatũ mũkaarĩĩaga mĩgate ĩtarĩ mĩimbie, naguo mũthenya wa mũgwanja mũgĩe na kĩũngano kĩamũrĩirwo Jehova Ngai wanyu, na mũtikarute wĩra o na ũrĩkũ.
9 Thou shall number to thee seven weeks. From the time thou begin to put the sickle to the standing grain thou shall begin to number seven weeks.
Taragai ciumia mũgwanja kuuma mwambĩrĩria kũgetha ngano ĩrĩa ĩtarĩ ngethe.
10 And thou shall keep the feast of weeks to Jehovah thy God with a tribute of a freewill offering from thy hand, which thou shall give, according as Jehovah thy God blesses thee.
Mũcooke mũkũngũĩre Gĩathĩ gĩa Ciumia nĩ ũndũ wa Jehova Ngai wanyu, na ũndũ wa kũruta maruta ma kwĩyendera maringaine na irathimo iria Jehova Ngai wanyu amũrathimĩte nacio.
11 And thou shall rejoice before Jehovah thy God, thou, and thy son, and thy daughter, and thy man-servant, and thy maid-servant, and the Levite who is within thy gates, and the sojourner, and the fatherless, and the widow, who are in the midst of thee, in the place which Jehovah thy God shall choose to cause his name to dwell there,
Na mũkenagĩre Jehova Ngai wanyu mũrĩ handũ harĩa agaathuura ha gũtũũria Rĩĩtwa rĩake, inyuĩ, na ariũ anyu, na airĩtu anyu, na ndungata cianyu cia arũme na cia andũ-a-nja, na Alawii arĩa marĩ matũũra-inĩ manyu, na andũ a kũngĩ, na ciana cia ngoriai, o na atumia a ndigwa arĩa matũũranagia na inyuĩ.
12 and thou shall remember that thou were a bondman in Egypt. And thou shall observe and do these statutes.
Ririkanai atĩ mwarĩ ngombo kũu bũrũri wa Misiri, na mũrũmagĩrĩre wega irĩra icio cia watho wa kũrũmĩrĩrwo.
13 Thou shall keep the feast of tabernacles seven days after thou have gathered in from thy threshing-floor and from thy winepress.
Kũngũyagĩrai Gĩathĩ gĩa Ithũnũ mĩthenya mũgwanja thuutha wa gũcookereria maciaro marĩa moimĩte ihuhĩro-inĩ cianyu cia ngano, na ihihĩro-inĩ cianyu cia ndibei.
14 And thou shall rejoice in thy feast, thou, and thy son, and thy daughter, and thy man-servant, and thy maid-servant, and the Levite, and the sojourner, and the fatherless, and the widow, who are within thy gates.
Kenagĩrai Gĩathĩ kĩu kĩanyu, inyuĩ, na ariũ anyu, na airĩtu anyu, na ndungata cianyu cia arũme na cia andũ-a-nja, na Alawii, na andũ a kũngĩ, na ciana cia ngoriai, o na atumia a ndigwa arĩa matũũraga matũũra-inĩ manyu.
15 Seven days thou shall keep a feast to Jehovah thy God in the place which Jehovah shall choose, because Jehovah thy God will bless thee in all thine increase, and in all the work of thy hands, and thou shall be altogether joyful.
Kũngũyagĩrai Gĩathĩ kĩu kĩamũrĩirwo Jehova Ngai wanyu ihinda rĩa mĩthenya mũgwanja mũrĩ handũ hau Jehova agaathuura. Nĩgũkorwo Jehova Ngai wanyu nĩakamũrathima magetha-inĩ manyu mothe, na mawĩra-inĩ mothe ma moko manyu, nakĩo gĩkeno kĩanyu nĩgĩkaiganĩra.
16 Three times in a year all thy males shall appear before Jehovah thy God in the place which he shall choose: in the feast of unleavened bread, and in the feast of weeks, and in the feast of tabernacles. And they shall not appear before Jehovah empty.
Arũme othe anyu no nginya makeyumĩria mbere ya Jehova Ngai wanyu maita matatũ o mwaka marĩ handũ hau agaathuura: hĩndĩ ya Gĩathĩ kĩa Mĩgate ĩtarĩ Mĩimbie, na ya Gĩathĩ gĩa Ciumia, na ya Gĩathĩ gĩa Ithũnũ. Gũtikanagĩe mũndũ ũkoimĩra mbere ya Jehova moko matheri:
17 Every man shall give as he is able, according to the blessing of Jehovah thy God which he has given thee.
O ũmwe wanyu no nginya akarehaga kĩheo kĩringaine na ũrĩa Jehova Ngai wanyu amũrathimĩte.
18 Thou shall make judges and officers for thee in all thy gates, which Jehovah thy God gives thee, according to thy tribes, and they shall judge the people with righteous judgment.
Mũgaathuura aciiri, o na anene a o mũhĩrĩga kuuma mĩhĩrĩga-inĩ yothe yanyu o itũũra-inĩ o rĩothe Jehova Ngai wanyu ekũmũhe, nao nĩmagatuagĩra andũ ciira wega.
19 Thou shall not distort justice. Thou shall not respect persons, neither shall thou take a bribe, for a bribe blinds the eyes of the wise, and perverts the words of the righteous.
Mũtikanahotomie ciira kana mũgĩe na gũthutũkania. Mũtikanamũkĩre ihaki, nĩgũkorwo ihaki nĩrĩtũmaga maitho ma mũndũ mũũgĩ matuĩke matumumu, na rĩkoogomia ciugo cia mũndũ ũrĩa mũthingu.
20 Thou shall follow that which is altogether just, that thou may live, and inherit the land which Jehovah thy God gives thee.
Rũmagĩrĩrai kĩhooto kĩo giiki, nĩgeetha mũtũũre muoyo na mwĩgwatĩre bũrũri ũrĩa Jehova Ngai wanyu ekũmũhe.
21 Thou shall not plant for thee an Asherah of any kind of tree beside the altar of Jehovah thy God, which thou shall make for thee.
Mũtikanahaande gĩtugĩ kĩa Ashera mwena-inĩ wa kĩgongona kĩrĩa mũgaathondekera Jehova Ngai wanyu,
22 Neither shall thou set up a pillar for thee, which Jehovah thy God hates.
na mũtikanaake ihiga rĩa kũhooyagwo, nĩgũkorwo Jehova Ngai wanyu nĩathũire maũndũ macio.
