< Deuteronomy 11 >
1 Therefore love the Lord thy God and observe his precepts and ceremonies, his judgments and commandments at all times.
Endaga Jehova Ngai waku na ũmenyagĩrĩre maũndũ marĩa endaga, arĩ kĩrĩra kĩa watho wake wa kũrũmĩrĩrwo, na mawatho make, na maathani make hĩndĩ ciothe.
2 Know this day the things that your children know not, who saw not the chastisements of the Lord your God. his great doings and strong hand, and stretched out arm,
Ririkana ũmũthĩ atĩ ciana ciaku itionire na itiamenyire kũherithania kwa Jehova Ngai waku: o na itionire ũnene wake na guoko gwake kũrĩa kũrĩ hinya, o na guoko gwake gũtambũrũkĩtio;
3 The signs and works which he did in the midst of Egypt to king Pharao, and to all his land,
o na ciama iria aaringire, na maũndũ marĩa eekire kũu bũrũri wa Misiri, na kũrĩ Firaũni mũthamaki wa bũrũri wa Misiri, na bũrũri wake wothe;
4 And to all the host of the Egyptians, and to their horses and chariots: how the waters of the Red Sea covered them, when they pursued you, and how the Lord destroyed them until this present day:
na ũrĩa eekire mbũtũ cia ita cia bũrũri wa Misiri, na mbarathi ciao, na ngaari ciao cia ita, na ũrĩa aamahubĩkanirie na maaĩ ma Iria Itune hĩndĩ ĩyo maathingatanĩte nao, na ũrĩa Jehova aamarehithĩirie mũthiro wa gũtũũra.
5 And what he hath done to you in the wilderness, till you came to this place:
Ciana cianyu ticio cionire ũrĩa aamwĩkĩire mũrĩ kũu werũ-inĩ, nginya rĩrĩa mwakinyire gũkũ;
6 And to Dathan and Abiron the sons of Eliab, who was the son of Ruben: whom the earth, opening her mouth swallowed up with their households and tents, and all their substance, which they had in the midst of Israel.
o na ũrĩa eekire Dathani na Abiramu, ariũ a Eliabu ũrĩa Mũrubeni, rĩrĩa thĩ yamaathamĩirie kanua kayo marĩ gatagatĩ ka andũ a Isiraeli othe, thĩ ĩkĩmameria hamwe na nyũmba ciao, na hema ciao, na kĩrĩa gĩothe maarĩ nakĩo.
7 Your eyes have seen all the greet works of the Lord, that he hath done,
No nĩ maitho manyu meeyoneire maũndũ macio mothe manene marĩa Jehova ekĩte.
8 That you may keep all his commandments, which I command you this day, and may go in, and possess the land, to which you are entering,
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio menyagĩrĩrai maathani mothe marĩa ndĩramũhe ũmũthĩ, nĩgeetha mũgĩe na hinya wa gũtoonya na wa gũtunyana bũrũri ũrĩa mũraringa Rũũĩ rwa Jorodani mũkawĩgwatĩre,
9 And may live in it a long time: which the Lord promised by oath to your fathers, and to their seed, a land which floweth with milk and honey.
na nĩgeetha mũgaatũũra matukũ maingĩ bũrũri ũcio Jehova eehĩtire na mwĩhĩtwa atĩ nĩakahe maithe manyu ma tene na njiaro ciao, bũrũri ũrĩ bũthi wa iria na ũũkĩ.
10 For the land, which thou goest to possess, is not like the land of Egypt, from whence thou camest out, where, when the seed is sown, waters are brought in to water it after the manner of gardens.
Bũrũri ũrĩa mũrathiĩ mũkaũtunyane ndũhaana ta bũrũri wa Misiri, kũrĩa muumĩte, kũrĩa mwahaandaga mbegũ cianyu na mũgaciunithagĩria maaĩ na magũrũ taarĩ mũgũnda wa mboga.
11 But it is a land of hills and plains, expecting rain from heaven.
No rĩrĩ, bũrũri ũrĩa mũraringa Rũũĩ rwa Jorodani mũkegwatĩre nĩ bũrũri ũrĩ irĩma na cianda iria inyuuaga maaĩ ma mbura kuuma igũrũ.
12 And the Lord thy God doth always visit it, and his eyes are on it from the beginning of the year unto the end thereof.
Nĩ bũrũri ũmenyagĩrĩrwo nĩ Jehova Ngai wanyu; maitho ma Jehova Ngai wanyu maikaraga maũcũthĩrĩirie kuuma kĩambĩrĩria kĩa mwaka nginya mũthia waguo.
13 If then you obey my commandments, which I command you this day, that you love the Lord your God, and serve him with all your heart, and with all your soul:
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio mũngĩathĩkĩra maathani marĩa ndĩramũhe ũmũthĩ mũrĩ na wĩhokeku, na mwendage Jehova Ngai wanyu, na mũmũtungatagĩre na ngoro cianyu ciothe na muoyo wanyu wothe-rĩ,
14 He will give to your land the early rain and the latter rain, that you may gather in your corn, and your wine, and your oil,
hĩndĩ ĩyo nĩngoiria mbura bũrũri wanyu kĩmera kĩayo gĩakinya, mbura ya mũringo na ya gũkũria irio, nĩgeetha mũgaacookagĩrĩria ngano yanyu, na ndibei ya mũhihano na maguta.
15 And your hay out of the fields to feed your cattle, and that you may eat and be filled.
Nĩngatũma kũgĩe na nyeki ithaka-inĩ nĩ ũndũ wa ngʼombe cianyu, na mũkarĩĩaga mũkahũũna.
16 Beware lest perhaps your heart be deceived, and you depart from the Lord, and serve strange gods, and adore them:
Mwĩmenyagĩrĩrei mũtikanaguucĩrĩrio, mũgarũrũke mũhooe ngai ingĩ na mũciinamĩrĩre.
17 And the Lord being angry shut up heaven, that the rain come not down, nor the earth yield her fruit, and you perish quickly from the excellent land, which the Lord will give you.
Mũngĩkaguucĩrĩrio, marakara ma Jehova nĩmakamũũkĩrĩra mamũcine, na nĩakahinga igũrũ nĩgeetha gũtikoire nayo thĩ yage kũruta maciaro, na inyuĩ nĩmũgathira o narua mwehere bũrũri ũcio mwega Jehova aramũhe.
18 Lay up these my words in your hearts and minds, and hang them for a sign on your hands, and place them between your eyes.
Igaai ciugo ici ciakwa ngoro-inĩ cianyu na meciiria-inĩ manyu; ciohagĩrĩrei moko-inĩ manyu irĩ imenyithia, na mũciohagĩrĩre mothiũ-inĩ manyu.
19 Teach your children that they meditate on them, when thou sittest in thy house, and when thou walkest on the way, and when thou liest down and risest up.
Cirutagei ciana cianyu, na mũciaragie rĩrĩa mũikarĩte kwanyu mĩciĩ na rĩrĩa mũrathiĩ na njĩra, na rĩrĩa mũkomete na rĩrĩa muokĩra.
20 Thou shalt write them upon the posts and the doors of thy house:
Ciandĩkei hingĩro-inĩ cia mĩrango ya nyũmba cianyu o na mũciandĩke ihingo-inĩ cianyu,
21 That thy days may be multiplied, and the days of thy children in the land which the Lord swore to thy fathers, that he would give them as long as the heaven hangeth over the earth.
nĩgeetha matukũ manyu na matukũ ma ciana cianyu maingĩhe kũu bũrũri-inĩ ũcio Jehova eehĩtire na mwĩhĩtwa atĩ nĩakahe maithe manyu ma tene; maingĩhe o ta matukũ marĩa igũrũ rĩgũtũũra rĩ igũrũ wa thĩ.
22 For if you keep the commandments which I command you, and do them, to love the Lord your God, and walk in all his ways, cleaving unto him,
Mũngĩmenyerera wega maathani maya mothe ndĩramũhe mũmarũmagĩrĩre, mwendage Jehova Ngai wanyu, na mũthiage na njĩra ciake ciothe na mũikarage mwĩgwatanĩtie nake-rĩ,
23 The Lord will destroy all these nations before your face, and you shall possess them, which are greater and stronger than you.
hĩndĩ ĩyo Jehova nĩakaingata ndũrĩrĩ icio ciothe ciehere mbere yanyu, na inyuĩ mwĩgwatĩre kũndũ kũu kwa ndũrĩrĩ nene na irĩ hinya kũmũkĩra.
24 Every place, that your foot shall tread upon, shall be yours. From the desert, and from Libanus, from the great river Euphrates unto the western sea shall be your borders.
Kũndũ guothe kũrĩa mũgaakinyithia makinya manyu gũgaatuĩka kwanyu; bũrũri wanyu ũkoima werũ-inĩ ũkinye Lebanoni, na uume Rũũĩ rwa Farati ũkinye iria-inĩ rĩa mwena wa ithũĩro.
25 None shall stand against you: the Lord your God shall lay the dread and fear of you upon all the land that you shall tread upon, as he hath spoken to you.
Gũtirĩ mũndũ ũkaahota kũmwĩtiiria. O ta ũrĩa aamwĩrĩire, Jehova Ngai wanyu nĩagatũma mwĩtigĩrwo nĩ andũ a bũrũri wothe kũrĩa guothe mũgaathiĩ.
26 Behold I set forth in your sight this day a blessing and a curse:
Atĩrĩrĩ, ũmũthĩ ndĩramũigĩra kĩrathimo mbere yanyu na ngamũigĩra kĩrumi,
27 A blessing, if you obey the commandments of the Lord your God, which I command you this day:
ndĩramũigĩra kĩrathimo angĩkorwo nĩmũgwathĩkĩra maathani ma Jehova Ngai wanyu marĩa ndĩramũhe ũmũthĩ;
28 A curse, if you obey not the commandments of the Lord your. God, but revolt from the way which now I shew you, and walk after strange gods which you know not.
na ngamũigĩra kĩrumi angĩkorwo nĩmũrĩagaga gwathĩkĩra maathani ma Jehova Ngai wanyu mũgatiga gũthiĩ na njĩra ĩrĩa ngũmwatha ũmũthĩ, na ũndũ wa kũrũmĩrĩra ngai ingĩ, iria mũtooĩ.
29 And when the Lord thy God shall have brought thee into the land, whither thou goest to dwell, thou shalt put the blessing upon mount Garizim, the curse upon mount Hebal:
Rĩrĩa Jehova Ngai wanyu akaamũkinyia bũrũri ũrĩa mũrathiĩ mũkawĩgwatĩre, nĩmũkanĩrĩra ũhoro wa kĩrathimo kĩu kĩrĩma-inĩ kĩa Gerizimu, nakĩo kĩrumi mũheanĩre ũhoro wakĩo kĩrĩma-inĩ kĩa Ebali.
30 Which are beyond the Jordan, behind the way that goeth to the setting of the sun, in the land of the Chanaanite who dwelleth in the plain country over against Galgala, which is near the valley that reacheth and entereth far.
O ta ũrĩa mũũĩ, irĩma icio irĩ kũu mũrĩmo wa Rũũĩ rwa Jorodani, mwena wa ithũĩro wa njĩra kwerekera na kũrĩa riũa rĩthũagĩra, gũkuhĩ na mĩtĩ ĩrĩa mĩnene ya More, kũu bũrũri wa andũ a Kaanani arĩa matũũraga Araba gũkuhĩ na Giligali.
31 For you shall pass over the Jordan, to possess the land, which the Lord your God will give you, that you may have it and possess it.
Mũrĩ hakuhĩ kũringa Rũũĩ rwa Jorodani mũtoonye mũkegwatĩre bũrũri ũcio Jehova Ngai wanyu aramũhe. Rĩrĩa mũgaakorwo mũwoete na mũgatũũra kuo-rĩ,
32 See therefore that you fulfill the ceremonies and judgments, which I shall set this day before you.
menyagĩrĩrai gwathĩkĩra kĩrĩra kĩa watho wa kũrũmĩrĩrwo, na mawatho marĩa ndĩramũhe ũmũthĩ.
