Kushi nĩwe warĩ ithe wa Nimurodi, ũrĩa wakũrire agĩtuĩka njamba ya hinya ya ita gũkũ thĩ.
9 He was a powerful fighter who defied the Lord; which is why there's the expression, “Like Nimrod, a powerful fighter who defied the Lord.”
Aarĩ mũguĩmi warĩ hinya mbere ya Jehova; na nĩkĩo kwĩragwo atĩrĩ, “O ta Nimurodi, mũguĩmi ũrĩ hinya mbere ya Jehova.”
10 His kingdom began in the cities of Babel, Erech, Akkad, and Calneh, all located in the land of Shinar.
Matũũra ma mbere ma ũthamaki wake maarĩ Babeli, na Ereku, na Akadi na Kaline, kũu Shinaru.
11 From there he moved into Assyria and built the cities of Nineveh, Rehoboth-Ir, Calah,
Kuuma bũrũri ũcio wa Shinaru agĩthiĩ bũrũri wa Ashuri, nakuo kũu agĩaka matũũra ma Nineve, na Rehobothu-Iru, na Kala,
12 and Resen, which lies between Nineveh and the great city of Calah.

19 and the territory of the Canaanites stretched from Sidon towards Gerar and all the way to Gaza, then towards Sodom, Gomorrah, Admah, and Zeboiim, all the way to Lasha.
mĩhaka ya Akaanani yoimĩte Sidoni ĩrorete Gerari ĩgakinya Gaza, ningĩ ĩkarora Sodomu, na Gomora, na Adima, na Zeboimu, o nginya Lasha.

25 Eber had two sons. One was named Peleg, because in his time the earth was divided; the name of his brother was Joktan.
Eberi nake nĩaciarĩirwo ariũ eerĩ: Ũmwe eetagwo Pelegu, tondũ hĩndĩ yake thĩ nĩyagayũkanire; mũrũ wa nyina eetagwo Jokitani.

Rũgongo rũrĩa maatũũraga ruoimĩte Mesha rũgathiĩ rũrorete Sefari, kũu mwena wa irathĩro wa bũrũri ũrĩa ũrĩ irĩma.
31 These were the sons of Shem, according to their tribes, languages, lands, and nations.
Acio nĩo ariũ a Shemu kũringana na mĩhĩrĩga yao, na thiomi ciao, marĩ ngʼongo ciao na mabũrũri-inĩ mao.
32 These were all the tribes descended from Noah's sons, according to their genealogies and national groups. From these ancestors the different nations of the earth spread around the world after the flood.
Ĩyo nĩyo mĩhĩrĩga ya ariũ a Nuhu kũringana na njiaro ciao, marĩ mabũrũri-inĩ mao. Kuuma kũrĩ o, ndũrĩrĩ ikĩhurunjũka thĩ yothe thuutha wa mũiyũro wa maaĩ.
