< Deuteronomy 10 >
1 “At that time, the Lord said to me: ‘Hew for yourself two tablets of stone, like those that were before, and ascend to me on the mountain. And you shall 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 And I will write on the tablets the words which were on those that you broke before, and you shall place 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 And so, I made an ark of setim wood. And when I had hewn two tablets of stone like the former, I ascended onto the mountain, having them in my hands.
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 And he wrote on the tablets, according to that which he had written before, the ten words, which the Lord spoke to you on the mountain from the midst of fire, when the people were assembled. And he 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 And returning from the mountain, I descended and placed the tablets in the ark, which I had made, and they are still there even now, just as the Lord instructed 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 Then the sons of Israel moved their camp, from Beeroth among the sons of Jaakan, into Moserah, where Aaron died and was buried, and where his son Eleazar was installed in the priesthood 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 went into Gudgodah. From that place, they set out and camped at Jotbathah, in a land of waters and torrents.
Kuuma kũu magĩthiĩ nginya Gudugoda, na magĩcooka magĩthiĩ magĩkinya Jotibatha, bũrũri ũrĩ tũrũũĩ.
8 At that time, he separated the tribe of Levi, so that he would carry the ark of the covenant of the Lord, and stand before him in the ministry, and speak blessings in his name, even to the present 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 As a result, Levi has no portion or possession with his brothers. For the Lord himself is his possession, just as the Lord your God promised 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 Then I stood on the mountain, as before, for forty days and nights. And the Lord heeded me at this time also, and he was not willing to 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 And he said to me: ‘Go forth and walk before the people, so that they may enter and possess the land, which I swore to their fathers that I would deliver to them.’
Jehova akĩnjĩĩra atĩrĩ, “Thiĩ ũgatongorie andũ aya kũrĩa megũthiĩ, nĩguo mathiĩ megwatĩre bũrũri ũrĩa nderĩire maithe mao na mwĩhĩtwa atĩ nĩngamahe.”
12 And now, O Israel, what does the Lord your God require of you? Only that you fear the Lord your God, and walk in his ways, and love him, and serve the Lord your God with your whole heart and with your whole 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 and that you keep the commandments of the Lord, and his ceremonies, which I am instructing to you this day, so that it may be well with you.
na ũmenyagĩrĩre maathani ma Jehova, na kĩrĩra kĩa watho wake wa kũrũmĩrĩrwo ũrĩa ngũkũhe ũmũthĩ nĩguo maũndũ maku magĩrĩre?
14 Lo, heaven belongs to the Lord your God, and the heaven of heaven, and the earth, and all the things that are within these.
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 Now the Lord was closely joined to your fathers, and he loved them, and he chose their offspring after them, that is, you yourselves, out of all the nations, just as is being proven 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 Therefore, circumcise the foreskin of your heart, and no longer stiffen your neck.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, ruithiai ngoro cianyu na mũtigacooke kũũmia ngingo cianyu rĩngĩ.
17 For the Lord your God himself is the God of gods, and the Lord of lords, a God great and powerful and terrible, who favors no person and accepts no bribe.
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 accomplishes judgment for the orphan and the widow. He loves the sojourner, and he gives him food as well as clothing.
Nĩarũagĩrĩra ciira wa ciana cia ngoriai na wa atumia a ndigwa, na nĩendaga mũndũ wa kũngĩ, akamũheaga irio na nguo.
19 Therefore, you also should love sojourners, for you also were new arrivals 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, and him alone shall you serve. 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 your God. He has done for you these great and terrible 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 As seventy souls, your fathers descended into Egypt. And now, behold, the Lord your God has multiplied you to be like the stars of heaven.”
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.
