< Exodus 33 >

1 Afterward the Lord sayd vnto Moses, Depart, goe vp from hence, thou, and the people (which thou hast brought vp out of lande of Egypt) vnto the lande which I sware vnto Abraham, to Izhak and to Iaakob, saying, Vnto thy seede will I giue it.
Ningĩ Jehova akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ, “Umai handũ haha, wee na andũ arĩa warutire kuuma bũrũri wa Misiri, mwambate bũrũri ũrĩa nderĩire Iburahĩmu, na Isaaka na Jakubu na mwĩhĩtwa ngiuga atĩrĩ, ‘Nĩngaũhe njiaro ciaku.’
2 And I will send an Angel before thee and will cast out the Canaanites, the Amorites, and the Hittites, and the Perizzites, the Hiuites, and the Iebusites:
Nĩngũtũma mũraika mbere yanyu na nĩngaingata Akaanani, na Aamori, na Ahiti, na Aperizi, na Ahivi, na Ajebusi.
3 To a lande, I say, that floweth with milke and hony: for I will not goe vp with thee, because thou art a stiffe necked people, least I consume thee in the way.
Ambatai mũthiĩ bũrũri ũcio ũrĩ bũthi wa iria na ũũkĩ. No niĩ ndigathiĩ na inyuĩ, tondũ mũrĩ andũ momĩtie ngingo na ndahota kũmũniinĩra njĩra-inĩ.”
4 And when the people heard this euill tydings, they sorowed, and no man put on his best rayment.
Rĩrĩa andũ acio maiguire ciugo icio cia kũmathĩĩnia ngoro, makĩambĩrĩria gũcakaya na gũtirĩ mũndũ wacookire kwĩhumba mathaga.
5 (For the Lord had said to Moses, Say vnto the children of Israel, Ye are a stiffe necked people, I wil come suddenly vpon thee, and consume thee: therefore now put thy costly rayment from thee, that I may know what to do vnto thee)
Nĩgũkorwo Jehova nĩeerĩte Musa atĩrĩ, “Ĩra andũ a Isiraeli atĩrĩ, ‘Inyuĩ mũrĩ andũ momĩtie ngingo. Ingĩtwarana na inyuĩ o na kahinda kanini, ndahota kũmũniina. Rĩu rutai mathaga manyu, na nĩngũmenya ũrĩa ngwĩka na inyuĩ.’”
6 So the children of Israel layed their good raiment from them, after Moses came downe from the mount Horeb.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio andũ a Isiraeli makĩrutĩra mathaga mao hau kĩrĩma-inĩ kĩa Horebu.
7 Then Moses tooke his tabernacle, and pitched it without the host farre off from the hoste, and called it Ohel-moed. And whe any did seeke to the Lord, he went out vnto the Tabernacle of the Congregation, which was without the hoste.
Na rĩrĩ, Musa nĩamenyerete kuoya hema akamĩamba nja ya kambĩ ĩyo handũ haraaya na kambĩ, akamĩĩta “Hema-ya-Gũtũnganwo.” Mũndũ o wothe ũngĩendire gũtuĩria ũhoro kũrĩ Jehova, aathiiaga hema-inĩ ĩyo ya gũtũnganwo kũu nja ya kambĩ.
8 And when Moses went out vnto the Tabernacle, all the people rose vp, and stood euery man at his tent doore, and looked after Moses, vntil he was gone into the Tabernacle.
Na rĩrĩa rĩothe Musa aathiiaga hema-inĩ, andũ othe mookĩraga makarũgama nja ya hema ciao, magacũthĩrĩria Musa nginya rĩrĩa arĩtoonya hema ĩyo.
9 And assoone as Moses was entred into the Tabernacle, the cloudie pillar descended and stood at the doore of the Tabernacle, and the Lord talked with Moses.
Musa agĩtoonya hema ĩyo, gĩtugĩ gĩa itu gĩaikũrũkaga gĩgaikara itoonyero-inĩ Jehova akĩaria na Musa.
10 Nowe when all the people saw the cloudie pillar stand at the Tabernacle doore, all the people rose vp, and worshipped euery man in his tent doore.
Rĩrĩa andũ mona gĩtugĩ kĩu gĩa itu kĩrũgamĩte itoonyero-inĩ rĩa hema ĩyo, othe maarũgamaga makahooya o mũndũ arĩ itoonyero-inĩ rĩa hema yake.
11 And the Lord spake vnto Moses, face to face, as a man speaketh vnto his friende. After he turned againe into the hoste, but his seruant Ioshua the sonne of Nun a yong man, departed not out of the Tabernacle.
Jehova agakĩaria na Musa makĩonanaga ũthiũ kwa ũthiũ o ta ũrĩa mũndũ maaragia na mũratawe. Thuutha ũcio Musa agacooka kambĩ, no Joshua mũrũ wa Nuni, mwanake ũrĩa wamũteithagia, ndoimaga hema-inĩ ĩyo.
12 Then Moses sayde vnto the Lord, See, thou sayest vnto me, Leade this people forth, and thou hast not shewed me whom thou wilt sende with mee: thou hast sayde moreouer, I knowe thee by name, and thou hast also found grace in my sight.
Musa akĩĩra Jehova atĩrĩ, “Ũkoretwo ũkĩnjĩĩra atĩrĩ, ‘Tongoria andũ aya,’ no ndũũmenyithĩtie ũrĩa ũkũndũmĩra tũthiĩ nake. Nĩũnjĩrĩte atĩrĩ, ‘Nĩngũũĩ na rĩĩtwa, na wĩ mwĩtĩkĩrĩku harĩ niĩ.’
13 Nowe therefore, I pray thee, if I haue founde fauour in thy sight, shewe mee nowe thy way, that I may knowe thee, and that I may finde grace in thy sight: consider also that this nation is thy people.
Angĩkorwo nĩũkenetio nĩ niĩ, menyithia njĩra ciaku nĩgeetha ngũmenye na thiĩ na mbere gwĩtĩkĩrĩka nĩwe. Ririkana atĩ rũrĩrĩ rũrũ nĩ andũ aku.”
14 And he answered, My presence shall go with thee, and I will giue thee rest.
Jehova akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Niĩ Mwene nĩngũtwarana na inyuĩ na ndĩmũhe ũhurũko.”
15 Then he sayd vnto him, If thy presence go not with vs, cary vs not hence.
Nake Musa akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Angĩkorwo ndũgũtwarana hamwe na ithuĩ, ndũgatũme tuume haha.
16 And wherein nowe shall it be knowen, that I and thy people haue found fauour in thy sight? shall it not be when thou goest with vs? so I, and thy people shall haue preeminence before all the people that are vpon the earth.
Mũndũ o na ũrĩkũ angĩkĩmenya atĩa atĩ nĩũkenetio nĩ niĩ, na ũgakenio nĩ andũ aku, tiga no ũtwaranire na ithuĩ? Nĩ kĩĩ kĩngĩ kĩngĩonania ngũũrani yakwa na ya andũ aku kuuma kũrĩ andũ arĩa angĩ othe marĩ thĩ ĩno?”
17 And the Lord sayde vnto Moses, I will doe this also that thou hast saide: for thou hast founde grace in my sight, and I knowe thee by name.
Nake Jehova akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ, “Nĩngwĩka o ũrĩa ũnjũũrĩtie njĩke, tondũ nĩngenetio nĩwe, na nĩngũũĩ na rĩĩtwa rĩaku.”
18 Againe he sayde, I beseech thee, shewe me thy glory.
Ningĩ Musa akiuga atĩrĩ, “Nyonia riiri waku ũrĩa ũtariĩ.”
19 And he answered, I wil make all my good go before thee, and I wil proclaime the Name of the Lord before thee: for I will shewe mercy to whom I will shewe mercy, and will haue compassion on whom I will haue compassion.
Nake Jehova akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Nĩngũtũma wega wakwa wothe ũhĩtũkĩre mbere yaku, na nĩngwanĩrĩra rĩĩtwa rĩakwa, Jehova, mbere yaku: Nĩndĩiguagĩra tha ũrĩa ndenda kũiguĩra tha, na nĩndĩcaayagĩra ũrĩa ndenda gũcaĩra.”
20 Furthermore he sayde, Thou canst not see my face, for there shall no man see me, and liue.
No Jehova akiuga atĩrĩ, “Ndũngĩona ũthiũ wakwa, nĩgũkorwo gũtirĩ mũndũ ũngĩona ũthiũ wakwa na acooke atũũre muoyo.”
21 Also the Lord sayd, Behold, there is a place by me, and thou shalt stand vpon the rocke:
Ningĩ Jehova akiuga atĩrĩ, “Nĩ harĩ handũ hakuhĩ na niĩ, harĩa ũngĩrũgama igũrũ rĩa mwaro rwa ihiga.
22 And while my glory passeth by, I will put thee in a cleft of the rocke, and will couer thee with mine hand whiles I passe by.
Rĩrĩa riiri wakwa ũrĩkorwo ũkĩhĩtũkĩra hau-rĩ, nĩndĩgũtoonyia mwanya-inĩ wa rwaro rũu rwa ihiga, ngũhumbĩre na guoko gwakwa nginya hĩtũke handũ hau.
23 After I will take away mine hande, and thou shalt see my backe parts: but my face shall not be seene.
Rĩrĩa ndĩrĩeheria guoko gwakwa, nawe nĩũrĩnyona na thuutha; no ũthiũ wakwa ndũngĩonwo.”
