< Deuteronomy 10 >
1 At that time the LORD said to me, “Cut two stone tablets like the first, and come up to me onto the mountain, and make an ark of wood.
Hĩndĩ ĩyo Jehova akĩnjĩĩra atĩrĩ, “Acũhia ihengere igĩrĩ cia mahiga ihaana ta iria cia mbere, ũcooke wambate gũkũ kũrĩ niĩ kĩrĩma-inĩ. Na ũcooke ũthondeke ithandũkũ rĩa mbaũ.
2 I will write on the tablets the words that were on the first tablets which you broke, and you shall put them in the ark.”
Nĩngwandĩka ciugo iria ciaandĩkĩtwo ihengere-inĩ iria cia mbere, iria woragire. Nawe nĩũgũcooka ũciĩkĩre thĩinĩ wa ithandũkũ rĩu rĩa kĩrĩkanĩro.”
3 So I made an ark of acacia wood, and cut two stone tablets like the first, and went up onto the mountain, having the two tablets in my hand.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio ngĩgĩthondeka ithandũkũ rĩu na mbaũ cia mũtĩ wa mũgaa, na ngĩicũhia ihengere igĩrĩ cia mahiga ihaanaine na iria cia mbere, ngĩambata kĩrĩma-inĩ nguuĩte ihengere icio igĩrĩ na moko.
4 He wrote on the tablets, according to the first writing, the ten commandments, which the LORD spoke to you on the mountain out of the middle of the fire in the day of the assembly; and the LORD gave them to me.
Jehova akĩandĩka Maathani macio Ikũmi ihengere-inĩ icio, o ta ũrĩa maandĩkĩtwo hĩndĩ ya mbere, o marĩa aamwarĩirie kũu kĩrĩma-inĩ arĩ thĩinĩ wa mwaki, mũthenya ũrĩa mwagomanĩte. Jehova agĩcooka akĩĩnengera ihengere icio.
5 I turned and came down from the mountain, and put the tablets in the ark which I had made; and there they are as the LORD commanded me.
Na niĩ ngĩcooka ngĩgarũrũka, ngĩikũrũka, ngiuma kĩrĩma igũrũ, ngĩĩkĩra ihengere icio ithandũkũ-inĩ rĩu ndaathondekete o ta ũrĩa Jehova aanjathĩte, na nĩho irĩ o na rĩu.
6 (The children of Israel traveled from Beeroth Bene Jaakan to Moserah. There Aaron died, and there he was buried; and Eleazar his son ministered in the priest’s office in his place.
(Andũ a Isiraeli nĩmathiire rũgendo moimĩte ithima-inĩ cia andũ a Jaakani, magĩkinya Mosera. Kũu nĩkuo Harũni aakuĩrĩire, na nokuo aathikirwo; nake mũriũ Eliazaru agĩtuĩka mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai ithenya rĩake.
7 From there they traveled to Gudgodah; and from Gudgodah to Jotbathah, a land of brooks of water.
Kuuma kũu magĩthiĩ nginya Gudugoda, na magĩcooka magĩthiĩ magĩkinya Jotibatha, bũrũri ũrĩ tũrũũĩ.
8 At that time the LORD set apart the tribe of Levi to bear the ark of the LORD’s covenant, to stand before the LORD to minister to him, and to bless in his name, to this day.
Ihinda-inĩ rĩu Jehova nĩamũrire mũhĩrĩga wa Lawi ũkuuage ithandũkũ rĩa kĩrĩkanĩro kĩa Jehova, na ũrũgamage mbere ya Jehova, ũtungatage na ũrathimanage ũkĩgwetaga rĩĩtwa rĩake, o ta ũrĩa meekaga ũmũthĩ.
9 Therefore Levi has no portion nor inheritance with his brothers; the LORD is his inheritance, according as the LORD your God spoke to him.)
Kĩu nĩkĩo gĩtũmi kĩa Alawii gũkorwo matarĩ na igai rĩao kĩũmbe gatagatĩ ka ariũ a ithe wao; Jehova nĩwe igai rĩao, o ta ũrĩa Jehova Ngai wanyu aameerire.)
10 I stayed on the mountain, as at the first time, forty days and forty nights; and the LORD listened to me that time also. The LORD would not destroy you.
Nĩndaikarire kũu kĩrĩma-inĩ matukũ mĩrongo ĩna, mũthenya na ũtukũ, o ta ũrĩa ndeekĩte hĩndĩ ya mbere, na ihinda rĩĩrĩ o narĩo Jehova nĩanjiguire. Ndwarĩ wendo wake amũniine.
11 The LORD said to me, “Arise, take your journey before the people; and they shall go in and possess the land which I swore to their fathers to give to them.”
Jehova akĩnjĩĩra atĩrĩ, “Thiĩ ũgatongorie andũ aya kũrĩa megũthiĩ, nĩguo mathiĩ megwatĩre bũrũri ũrĩa nderĩire maithe mao na mwĩhĩtwa atĩ nĩngamahe.”
12 Now, Israel, what does the LORD your God require of you, but to fear the LORD your God, to walk in all his ways, to love him, and to serve the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul,
Na rĩrĩ, wee Isiraeli, nĩ ũndũ ũrĩkũ Jehova Ngai waku endaga wĩke, tiga o wĩtigagĩre Jehova Ngai waku, na ũthiiage na njĩra ciake ciothe, na ũmwendage, na ũtungatagĩre Jehova Ngai waku na ngoro yaku yothe o na muoyo waku wothe,
13 to keep the LORD’s commandments and statutes, which I command you today for your good?
na ũmenyagĩrĩre maathani ma Jehova, na kĩrĩra kĩa watho wake wa kũrũmĩrĩrwo ũrĩa ngũkũhe ũmũthĩ nĩguo maũndũ maku magĩrĩre?
14 Behold, to the LORD your God belongs heaven, the heaven of heavens, and the earth, with all that is therein.
Jehova Ngai waku nĩwe mwene igũrũ, o na igũrũ rĩrĩa rĩrĩ kũraya kũu matu-inĩ, o na thĩ no yake na indo ciothe iria irĩ kuo.
15 Only the LORD had a delight in your fathers to love them, and he chose their offspring after them, even you above all peoples, as it is today.
No rĩrĩ, o na kũrĩ ũguo, Jehova nĩakenirio nĩ maithe manyu ma tene na akĩmeenda, na akĩmũthuura inyuĩ njiaro ciao harĩ ndũrĩrĩ iria ingĩ ciothe, o ta ũrĩa gũtariĩ ũmũthĩ.
16 Circumcise therefore the foreskin of your heart, and be no more stiff-necked.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, ruithiai ngoro cianyu na mũtigacooke kũũmia ngingo cianyu rĩngĩ.
17 For the LORD your God, he is God of gods and Lord of lords, the great God, the mighty, and the awesome, who does not respect persons or take bribes.
Nĩgũkorwo Jehova Ngai wanyu nĩwe Ngai wa ngai iria ingĩ, na Mwathani wa aathani, o we Mũrungu ũrĩa mũnene, ũrĩa ũrĩ hinya mũno na wa kũmakania, ũrĩa ũtathutũkanagia, na ndoyaga mahaki.
18 He executes justice for the fatherless and widow and loves the foreigner in giving him food and clothing.
Nĩarũagĩrĩra ciira wa ciana cia ngoriai na wa atumia a ndigwa, na nĩendaga mũndũ wa kũngĩ, akamũheaga irio na nguo.
19 Therefore love the foreigner, for you were foreigners in the land of Egypt.
O na inyuĩ no nginya mwendage andũ a kũngĩ, nĩgũkorwo o na inyuĩ mwatũũire mũrĩ andũ a kũngĩ bũrũri-inĩ wa Misiri.
20 You shall fear the LORD your God. You shall serve him. You shall cling to him, and you shall swear by his name.
Wĩtigagĩre Jehova Ngai waku na ũmũtungatagĩre. Wĩnyiitanagie nake, na ũkĩĩhĩta ũgwetage rĩĩtwa rĩake.
21 He is your praise, and he is your God, who has done for you these great and awesome things which your eyes have seen.
Ũcio nowe ũrĩgoocaga; na nĩwe Ngai waku, ũrĩa wagwĩkĩire maũndũ macio manene na ma kũmakania marĩa weyoneire na maitho maku.
22 Your fathers went down into Egypt with seventy persons; and now the LORD your God has made you as the stars of the sky for multitude.
Maithe manyu ma tene arĩa maikũrũkire magĩthiĩ bũrũri wa Misiri maarĩ andũ mĩrongo mũgwanja, na rĩu Jehova Ngai waku nĩakũingĩhĩtie o ta njata cia matu-inĩ.
