Deuteronomy 13
1 Maybe a prophet or someone who has dreams about the future comes along and gives you a prediction you about some sign or miracle,
Mũnabii kana mũroti wa irooto angĩkeyumĩria thĩinĩ wanyu, nake amwĩre ũhoro wa kĩama kana wa ũrirũ,
2 and the sign or wonder does happens. If after that they tell you, “Let's follow other gods that you don't know, and let's worship them,”
naguo ũhoro ũcio aarĩtie wa kĩama kana wa ũrirũ wĩkĩke-rĩ, acooke oige atĩrĩ, “Nĩtũrũmĩrĩrei ngai ingĩ (ngai iria mũtooĩ) mũreke tũcihooe,”
3 then you must not listen to what that prophet or dreamer has to say because the Lord your God is trying to find out whether you really love him with all your mind and with all your being.
mũtikanathikĩrĩrie ndeto cia mũnabii ũcio, kana cia mũroti ũcio wa irooto; Jehova Ngai wanyu nĩkũmũgeria aramũgeria amenye kana nĩmũmwendete na ngoro cianyu ciothe na mĩoyo yanyu yothe.
4 You are to follow the Lord your God and respect him. Keep his commandments and do what he says; worship him and hold onto him.
Jehova Ngai wanyu nĩwe mũrĩrũmagĩrĩra, na nĩwe mũrĩĩtigagĩra. Menyagĩrĩrai maathani make na mũmathĩkagĩre; mũtungatagĩrei na mwĩgwatanagie nake.
5 These kinds of prophet or dreamer must be executed, because they have promoted rebellion against the Lord your God, who led you out of Egypt and rescued you from the prison-house of slavery. They have tried to lead you from the way that the Lord your God has ordered you to follow. You must eliminate the evil among you.
Mũnabii ũcio kana mũroti ũcio no nginya ooragwo, tondũ nĩahunjĩtie ũhoro wa kũremera Jehova Ngai wanyu, ũrĩa wamũrutire bũrũri wa Misiri, akĩmũkũũra kuuma bũrũri wa ũkombo; nĩageretie kũmũgarũra mwehere njĩra ĩrĩa Jehova Ngai wanyu aamwathire mũrũmagĩrĩre. No nginya mũniine ũũru ũcio wehere gatagatĩ-inĩ kanyu.
6 Even if your own brother, or your son or daughter, or the wife you love, or your best friend secretly encourages you, saying, “Let's go and worship other gods” unfamiliar to you and your forefathers,
Mũrũ wa nyũkwa ũrĩa mũciaranĩirwo, kana mũrũguo kana mwarĩguo, kana mũtumia waku ũrĩa wendete, kana mũrataguo ũrĩa mumĩranĩtie ngoro nake angĩkũheenereria, akwĩre atĩrĩ, “Nĩtũthiĩ tũkahooe ngai ingĩ” (ngai iria wee kana maithe manyu matooĩ,
7 the gods of your pagan nation neighbors, whether they love close by or far away in any direction,
ngai cia andũ arĩa mamũthiũrũrũkĩirie, marĩ gũkuhĩ, kana marĩ kũraya, kuuma mwena ũmwe wa bũrũri nginya ũrĩa ũngĩ),
8 don't give into them or listen to them. Show them no mercy. Don't spare them or protect them.
ndũkanetĩkĩre ũhoro ũcio wake, kana ũmũthikĩrĩrie. Ndũkanamũiguĩre tha. Ndũkanamũtige arĩ muoyo kana ũmũhithĩrĩre.
9 No, you absolutely must kill them! You start killing them, and then have everyone else help.
No nginya ũkaamũũraga. Guoko gwaku nĩkuo gũgaakorwo kũrĩ kwa mbere ũhoro-inĩ ũcio wa kũmũũraga, gũcooke kũrũmĩrĩrwo nĩ moko ma andũ arĩa angĩ othe.
10 Stone the person to death for trying lead you away from the Lord your God, who led you out of Egypt, out of the prison-house of slavery.
Mũhũũrei na mahiga nyuguto nginya akue, nĩ ũndũ nĩageretie kũmũgarũra amũrute njĩra-inĩ ya Jehova Ngai wanyu ũrĩa wamũrutire bũrũri wa Misiri, kuuma bũrũri wa ũkombo.
11 Then every Israelite will hear about it and be afraid, and won't ever do such an evil thing among you.
Hĩndĩ ĩyo andũ othe a Isiraeli nĩmakaigua ũhoro ũcio nao nĩmagetigĩra, na gũtirĩ mũndũ gatagatĩ kanyu ũgeeka ũndũ mũũru ta ũcio rĩngĩ.
12 It may happen that once you're living in the towns the Lord your God is giving you, you hear
Mũngĩkaigua ũhoro ũkĩheanwo ũkoniĩ itũũra rĩmwe rĩa marĩa Jehova Ngai wanyu ekũmũhe mũtũũre kuo-rĩ,
13 that evil people have taken over in one of your towns and have led the people there astray, telling them, “Let's go and worship other gods” that you don't know.
atĩ andũ aaganu nĩmeyumĩrĩtie thĩinĩ wanyu na makahĩtithia andũ a itũũra rĩao njĩra, makameera atĩrĩ, “Nĩtũthiĩi tũkahooe ngai ingĩ” (ngai iria inyuĩ mũtooĩ),
14 If this does happen you need to make a full investigation, inquiring about the facts and interrogating witnesses. If it's proved beyond doubt that this awful sin has actually been committed among you,
hĩndĩ ĩyo no nginya mũkoorĩrĩria ũhoro ũcio, na mũũthuthuurie na mũũtuĩrie wega biũ. Mũngĩona nĩguo kũrĩ na kũmenyeke wega atĩ ũndũ ũcio ũrĩ magigi ũguo nĩwĩkĩkĩte thĩinĩ wanyu-rĩ,
15 then you have to kill the people living in that town with the sword. Set apart for destruction its people and its livestock.
no nginya mũkooraga andũ arĩa othe matũũraga itũũra rĩu na rũhiũ rwa njora. Itũũra rĩu nĩmũkarĩniina biũ, mũniine andũ a rĩo o na mahiũ makuo.
16 You must pile up all the people's possessions in the middle of the public square, and completely burn the town and everything in it as a complete burnt offering to the Lord your God. The town must remain a heap of ruins forever. It must never be rebuilt.
Mũgaacookanĩrĩria indo ciothe iria ndahe cia itũũra rĩu handũ hamwe o kũu gatagatĩ ga kĩhaaro gĩa itũũra, mũcine itũũra rĩu biũ hamwe na indo ciarĩo cia gũtahwo, ituĩke igongona rĩa njino rĩrutĩirwo Jehova Ngai wanyu. Rĩgaatũũra rĩrĩ rĩanange nginya tene, na rĩtigaakwo rĩngĩ.
17 Don't take for yourselves anything that has been set apart for destruction so that the Lord won't be angry any more. He will be merciful to you, showing you compassion, and giving you many descendants as he promised to your forefathers,
Gũtirĩ kĩndũ o na kĩmwe kĩa indo icio ituĩrĩirwo kũniinwo gĩgaakorwo kĩrĩ moko-inĩ manyu, nĩgeetha Jehova atige gũcinwo nĩ marakara make mahiũ; nake acooke amũiguĩre tha, na amwĩke maũndũ ma ũtugi, na atũme mũingĩhe, o ta ũrĩa erĩire maithe manyu ma tene na mwĩhĩtwa,
18 because you are obeying the Lord your God, keeping all his commandments that I'm giving you today, and doing what is right in the sight of the Lord your God.
nĩ ũndũ wa gwathĩkĩra Jehova Ngai wanyu na kũmenyerera maathani make mothe marĩa ngũmũhe ũmũthĩ, na gwĩka maũndũ marĩa magĩrĩire maitho-inĩ make.
