Daniel 9
1 In the first yeere of Darius the sonne of Ahashuerosh, of the seede of the Medes, which was made King ouer the realme of the Caldeans,
Na rĩrĩ, mwaka-inĩ wa mbere wa Dario mũrũ wa Ahasuerusu (wa rũciaro rwa Amedi), ũrĩa watuĩtwo mũthamaki wa bũrũri wa Babuloni,
2 Euen in the first yeere of his reigne, I Daniel vnderstood by bookes the nomber of the yeeres, whereof the Lord had spoken vnto Ieremiah the Prophet, that he would accomplish seuentie yeeres in the desolation of Ierusalem.
mwaka-inĩ wa mbere wa wathani wake-rĩ, niĩ Danieli nĩndataũkĩirwo kuuma maandĩko-inĩ matheru nĩ kiugo kĩrĩa Jehova eerĩte mũnabii Jeremia atĩ Jerusalemu nĩgũgakira ihooru mĩaka mĩrongo mũgwanja.
3 And I turned my face vnto the Lord God, and sought by prayer and supplications with fasting and sackcloth and ashes.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio ngĩĩhũgũrĩra Jehova Ngai, ngĩmũhooya, ngĩmũthaithaga ndĩhingĩte kũrĩa irio, na ndĩhumbĩte nguo ya ikũnia, na ngehurĩria mũhu mũtwe.
4 And I prayed vnto the Lord my God, and made my confession, saying, Oh Lord God, which art great and fearefull, and keepest couenant and mercy toward them which loue thee, and toward them that keepe thy commandements,
Ngĩhooya Jehova Ngai wakwa, na ngiumbũra mehia, ngĩmwĩra atĩrĩ: “Wee Mwathani Ngai mũnene na wa gwĩtigĩrwo, o Wee ũhingagia kĩrĩkanĩro gĩake kĩa wendo kũrĩ andũ othe arĩa mamwendete na magaathĩkĩra maathani make,
5 We haue sinned, and haue committed iniquitie and haue done wickedly, yea, we haue rebelled, and haue departed from thy precepts, and from thy iudgements.
nĩtwĩhĩtie na tũgeka ũũru. Nĩtũkoretwo tũrĩ aaganu na tũkarema, tũkahutatĩra maathani maku na mawatho maku.
6 For we would not obey thy seruants the Prophets, which spake in thy Name to our Kings, to our princes, and to our fathers, and to all the people of the land.
Na tũkarega kũigua anabii acio ndungata ciaku, arĩa maaragia makĩgwetaga rĩĩtwa rĩaku makĩarĩria athamaki aitũ, na anene aitũ, o na maithe maitũ, o na andũ othe a bũrũri witũ.
7 O Lord, righteousnes belongeth vnto thee, and vnto vs open shame, as appeareth this day vnto euery man of Iudah, and to the inhabitants of Ierusalem: yea, vnto all Israel, both neere and farre off, through all the countreys, whither thou hast driuen them, because of their offences, that they haue committed against thee.
“Wee Mwathani-rĩ, ũrĩ mũthingu, no ithuĩ-rĩ, ũmũthĩ ũyũ tũiyũirwo nĩ thoni, ithuĩ andũ a Juda, na andũ a Jerusalemu, na andũ othe a Isiraeli, arĩa marĩ gũkuhĩ na arĩa marĩ kũraya, mabũrũri-inĩ mothe kũrĩa ũtũhurunjĩire nĩ ũndũ wa kwaga kwĩhokeka harĩwe.
8 O Lord, vnto vs apperteineth open shame, to our Kings, to our princes, and to our fathers, because we haue sinned against thee.
Atĩrĩrĩ Wee Jehova, ithuĩ na athamaki aitũ, na anene aitũ na maithe maitũ tũiyũrĩtwo nĩ thoni nĩ ũndũ wa mehia marĩa tũkwĩhĩirie.
9 Yet compassion and forgiuenesse is in the Lord our God, albeit we haue rebelled against him.
Jehova Ngai witũ nĩ wa tha na nĩarekanagĩra, o na gũkorwo ithuĩ nĩtũmũremeire;
10 For we haue not obeyed the voyce of the Lord our God, to walke in his lawes, which he had laide before vs by the ministerie of his seruants the Prophets.
tũtiathĩkĩire Jehova Ngai witũ kana tũkarũmia mawatho make marĩa aatũheire na tũnua twa anabii, ndungata ciake.
11 Yea, all Israel haue transgressed thy Lawe, and are turned backe, and haue not heard thy voyce: therefore the curse is powred vpon vs, and the othe that is written in the Lawe of Moses the seruant of God, because we haue sinned against him.
Bũrũri wothe wa Isiraeli nĩwagararĩte watho waku na ũgakũhutatĩra, na ũkarega gũgwathĩkĩra. “Nĩ ũndũ ũcio nĩtũkinyĩrĩirwo nĩ irumi na tũgacookererwo nĩ mwĩhĩtwa ũrĩa wandĩkĩtwo watho-inĩ wa Musa, ndungata ya Ngai, tondũ nĩtũkwĩhĩirie.
12 And he hath confirmed his wordes, which he spake against vs, and against our iudges that iudged vs, by bringing vpon vs a great plague: for vnder the whole heauen hath not bene the like, as hath bene brought vpon Ierusalem.
Na rĩu nĩũhingĩtie ciugo iria waririe cia gũtũũkĩrĩra ithuĩ na anene aitũ na ũndũ wa gũtũrehithĩria mwanangĩko mũnene. Gũkũ thĩ guothe gũtirĩ gwekwo ũndũ mũnene ta ũrĩa wĩkĩtwo Jerusalemu.
13 All this plague is come vpon vs, as it is written in the Lawe of Moses: yet made we not our prayer before the Lord our God, that we might turne from our iniquities and vnderstand thy trueth.
O ta ũrĩa kwandĩkĩtwo watho-inĩ wa Musa-rĩ, mwanangĩko ũyũ wothe nĩũtũkinyĩrĩire. No rĩrĩ, tũtirĩ tũramaatha gwĩtĩkĩrĩka nĩ Jehova Ngai witũ, nĩguo tũtigane na mehia maitũ na tũcũũranie ũhoro waku wa ma.
14 Therefore hath the Lord made ready the plague, and brought it vpon vs: for the Lord our God is righteous in all his works which he doeth: for we would not heare his voyce.
Jehova ndaatithirie gũtũrehere mwanangĩko ũcio, nĩgũkorwo Jehova Ngai witũ nĩ mũthingu maũndũ-inĩ mothe marĩa ekaga; no, ithuĩ tũtiigana kũmwathĩkĩra.
15 And nowe, O Lord our God, that hast brought thy people out of the land of Egypt with a mightie hand, and hast gotten thee renoume, as appeareth this day, we haue sinned, we haue done wickedly.
“Na rĩrĩ, Wee Mwathani Ngai witũ, o Wee warutire andũ aku bũrũri wa Misiri na guoko kwa hinya, na ũkĩĩgĩĩra igweta rĩrĩa rĩtũũraga ho nginya ũmũthĩ, ithuĩ Nĩtwĩhĩtie, na tũgeka ũũru.
16 O Lord, according to all thy righteousnes, I beseech thee, let thine anger and thy wrath be turned away from thy citie Ierusalem thine holy Mountaine: for because of our sinnes, and for the iniquities of our fathers, Ierusalem and thy people are a reproche to all that are about vs.
Atĩrĩrĩ Wee Mwathani, kũringana na ciĩko ciaku cia ũthingu, ehereria Jerusalemu, itũũra rĩu rĩaku inene, na kĩrĩma gĩaku gĩtheru marakara na mangʼũrĩ maku. Mehia maitũ na mawaganu ma maithe maitũ nĩmo matũmĩte Jerusalemu hamwe na andũ aku matuĩke kĩndũ gĩa gũconorithio harĩ andũ arĩa othe matũthiũrũrũkĩirie.
17 Nowe therefore, O our God, heare the prayer of thy serunant, and his supplications, and cause thy face to shine vpon thy Sanctuarie, that lyeth waste for the Lords sake.
“Na rĩrĩ, Ngai witũ, ĩtĩkĩra kũigua mahooya na mathaithana ma ndungata ĩno yaku. Nĩ ũndũ wa rĩĩtwa rĩaku Wee Mwathani, iguĩra handũ haku hatheru tha, o hau hakirĩte ihooru.
18 O my God, encline thine eare and heare: open thine eyes, and beholde our desolations, and the citie whereupon thy Name is called: for we doe not present our supplications before thee for our owne righteousnes, but for thy great tender mercies.
Atĩrĩrĩ, Wee Ngai thikĩrĩria, na ũtũigue, ũhingũre maitho maku wone ihooru rĩa itũũra inene rĩrĩa rĩĩtanĩtio na Rĩĩtwa rĩaku. Tũtiragũthaitha nĩ ũndũ tũrĩ athingu, no nĩ ũndũ wa tha ciaku nyingĩ.
19 O Lord, heare, O Lord forgiue, O Lord consider, and doe it: deferre not, for thine owne sake, O my God: for thy Name is called vpon thy citie, and vpon thy people.
Wee Mwathani, tũthikĩrĩrie! Wee Mwathani tũrekere! Wee Mwathani, tũigue na ũtũteithie! Nĩ ũndũ waku, Wee Ngai wakwa, ndũkagonderere nĩ ũndũ wa itũũra rĩaku inene na andũ aku metanĩtio na Rĩĩtwa rĩaku.”
20 And whiles I was speaking and praying, and confessing my sinne, and the sinne of my people Israel, and did present my supplication before the Lord my God, for the holy Mountaine of my God,
Na rĩrĩ, rĩrĩa niĩ ndaaragia ngĩhooyaga na ngiumbũraga mehia makwa na ma andũ akwa a Isiraeli, na ngĩthaitha Jehova Ngai wakwa nĩ ũndũ wa kĩrĩma gĩake gĩtheru,
21 Yea, while I was speaking in prayer, euen the man Gabriel, whome I had seene before in the vision, came flying, and touched mee about the time of the euening oblation.
o ndĩ o mahooya-inĩ-rĩ, Gaburieli, mũndũ ũrĩa ndonire kĩoneki-inĩ kĩa mbere, agĩũka harĩ niĩ ombũkĩte na ihenya ihinda rĩrĩa igongona rĩa hwaĩ-inĩ rĩrutagwo.
22 And he informed me, and talked with me, and sayd, O Daniel, I am now come forth to giue thee knowledge and vnderstanding.
Nake akĩndaarĩria atĩrĩ, “Atĩrĩrĩ Danieli, rĩu ndoka ngũhe ũmenyo na ũtaũku.
23 At the beginning of thy supplications the commandement came foorth, and I am come to shewe thee, for thou art greatly beloued: therefore vnderstande the matter and consider the vision.
O rĩrĩa wambĩrĩirie kũhooya-rĩ, noguo icookio rĩheanirwo, na niĩ ndatũmwo njũke ngwĩre, tondũ ũrĩ mũndũ mwende mũno. Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, cũrania ũhoro wa ndũmĩrĩri ĩno ngũkwĩra, na ũtaũkĩrwo nĩ kĩoneki kĩu:
24 Seuentie weekes are determined vpon thy people and vpon thine holy citie, to finish the wickednes, and to seale vp the sinnes, and to reconcile the inquitie, and to bring in euerlasting righteousnesse, and to seale vp the vision and prophecie, and to anoynt the most Holy.
“Atĩrĩrĩ, ihinda rĩa ciumia mĩrongo mũgwanja nĩrĩo rĩtuĩrĩirwo andũ aku, na rĩgatuĩrwo itũũra rĩaku itheru, nĩgeetha hagĩe na ihinda rĩa kũniina ũmaramari, na rĩa gũtigana na mehia, na rĩa kũhooroheria waganu, nĩguo ũhoro wa ũthingu ũrĩa ũtathiraga ũgĩe, nakĩo kĩoneki na ũrathi ciĩkĩrwo mũhũũri, nake ũrĩa mũtheru mũno aitĩrĩrio maguta.
25 Knowe therefore and vnderstande, that from the going foorth of the commandement to bring againe the people, and to builde Ierusalem, vnto Messiah the prince, shall be seuen weekes and threescore and two weekes, and the streete shalbe built againe, and the wall euen in a troublous time.
“Atĩrĩrĩ, menya na ũtaũkĩrwo atĩrĩ, ‘Kuuma rĩrĩa gwatuirwo atĩ itũũra rĩa Jerusalemu rĩcookererio na rĩakwo rĩngĩ, nginya rĩrĩa mũtongoria ũrĩa Mũitĩrĩrie Maguta agooka-rĩ, nĩgũkagĩa na ciumia mũgwanja na ciumia ingĩ mĩrongo ĩtandatũ na igĩrĩ. Itũũra rĩu nĩrĩgaakwo rĩngĩ, hamwe na njĩra ciarĩo na mũtaro, no gũgaakorwo kũrĩ mahinda ma thĩĩna.
26 And after threescore and two weekes, shall Messiah be slaine, and shall haue nothing, and the people of the prince that shall come, shall destroy the citie and the Sanctuarie, and the end thereof shalbe with a flood: and vnto the end of the battell it shalbe destroyed by desolations.
Thuutha wa ciumia mĩrongo ĩtandatũ na igĩrĩ, ũcio Mũitĩrĩrie Maguta nĩakooragwo na atigwo atarĩ na kĩndũ. Ningĩ andũ a mũtongoria ũrĩa ũgooka thuutha wake nĩmagathũkangia itũũra rĩu inene o na handũ-harĩa-haamũre. Ithirĩro rĩgooka ta mũiyũro wa maaĩ: Nayo mbaara ĩgaathiĩ na mbere o nginya ithirĩro, na nĩgũtuĩtwo atĩ nĩgũgacooka gũkire ihooru.
27 And he shall confirme the couenant with many for one weeke: and in the middes of the weeke he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, and for the ouerspreading of the abominations, he shall make it desolate, euen vntill the consummation determined shalbe powred vpon the desolate.
Nĩakagĩa na kĩrĩkanĩro kĩrũmu na andũ aingĩ handũ ha kiumia kĩmwe. Gatagatĩ-inĩ ga kiumia kĩu nĩagatũma magongona na maruta matige kũrutwo. Na handũ ha mo, mwena ũmwe wa hekarũ-rĩ, nĩakarũgamia kĩndũ kĩrĩ magigi na thaahu, o nginya ithirĩro rĩrĩa rĩtuĩtwo rĩgaakinya, nake atũũre aitagĩrĩrio mangʼũrĩ.’”
