Deuteronomy 23
1 He that is wounded in the stones, or has his private parts cut off, shall not enter into the congregation of the LORD.
Gũtirĩ mũndũ mũhakũre na ũndũ wa kũhihinywo kana gũtinio kĩĩga gĩake gĩa ũciari ũgaatoonya kĩũngano-inĩ kĩa Jehova.
2 A bastard shall not enter into the congregation of the LORD; even to his tenth generation shall he not enter into the congregation of the LORD.
Gũtirĩ mwana ũciarĩtwo kuuma ũhiki-inĩ mũgirie, kana mũndũ o wothe wa rũciaro rwake ũgaatoonya kĩũngano-inĩ kĩa Jehova, o nginya rũciaro rwa ikũmi.
3 An Ammonite or Moabite shall not enter into the congregation of the LORD; even to their tenth generation shall they not enter into the congregation of the LORD for ever:
Gũtirĩ Mũamoni kana Mũmoabi, kana mũndũ o wothe wa rũciaro rwake, ũgaatoonya kĩũngano-inĩ kĩa Jehova, o nginya rũciaro rwa ikũmi.
4 Because they met you not with bread and with water in the way, when all of you came forth out of Egypt; and because they hired against you Balaam the son of Beor of Pethor of Mesopotamia, to curse you.
Nĩgũkorwo matiigana gũũka kũmũtũnga na mĩgate na maaĩ mũrĩ njĩra mũkiuma bũrũri wa Misiri, na ningĩ nĩmarĩhire Balamu mũrũ wa Beori kuuma Pethori kũu Mesopotamia nĩguo oke amũrume.
5 Nevertheless the LORD your God would not hearken unto Balaam; but the LORD your God turned the curse into a blessing unto you, because the LORD your God loved you.
O na kũrĩ o ro ũguo-rĩ, Jehova Ngai wanyu ndaigana gũthikĩrĩria Balamu, no aagarũrire kĩrumi kĩu gĩgĩtuĩka kĩrathimo harĩ inyuĩ, nĩ ũndũ Jehova Ngai wanyu nĩamwendete.
6 You shall not seek their peace nor their prosperity all your days for ever.
Mũtikanagĩe kĩrĩko gĩa gũtũũra ũrata nao hĩndĩ ĩrĩa yothe mũgũtũũra muoyo.
7 You shall not detest an Edomite; for he is your brother: you shall not detest an Egyptian; because you were a stranger in his land.
Mũtikanamene Mũedomu nĩgũkorwo nĩ mũrũ wa ithe wanyu. Mũtikanamene Mũmisiri, nĩ ũndũ nĩmwatũire mũrĩ ageni bũrũri wake.
8 The children that are begotten of them shall enter into the congregation of the LORD in their third generation.
Andũ a rũciaro rwa gatatũ arĩa magaaciarwo nĩo, no matoonye kĩũngano-inĩ kĩa Jehova.
9 When the host goes forth against your enemies, then keep you from every wicked thing.
Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa mũngĩamba kambĩ mũngʼethanĩire na thũ cianyu, mũtikahutanie na kĩndũ kĩrĩ thaahu.
10 If there be among you any man, that is not clean by reason of uncleanness that chances him by night, then shall he go abroad out of the camp, he shall not come within the camp:
Mũndũ mũrũme ũmwe thĩinĩ wanyu angĩkorwo nĩathaahĩte nĩ ũndũ wa ũndũ ũrĩa ũmũkorete ũtukũ, nĩakoima na kũu nja ya kambĩ aikare kuo.
11 But it shall be, when evening comes on, he shall wash himself with water: and when the sun is down, he shall come into the camp again.
No rĩrĩ, gwatua gũtuka nĩethambe, na riũa rĩgĩthũa no acooke kambĩ-inĩ.
12 You shall have a place also without the camp, where you shall go forth abroad:
Thondekai handũ nja ya kambĩ harĩa mũrĩthiiaga gwĩteithia.
13 And you shall have a paddle upon your weapon; and it shall be, when you will ease yourself abroad, you shall dig therewith, and shall turn back and cover that which comes from you:
Harĩ indo cianyu cia wĩra-rĩ, gĩagai na kĩndũ gĩa gũcimbaga nakĩo, na rĩrĩa mũndũ athiĩ gwĩteithia, akenja irima agathika kĩoro gĩake.
14 For the LORD your God walks in the midst of your camp, to deliver you, and to give up your enemies before you; therefore shall your camp be holy: that he see no unclean thing in you, and turn away from you.
Nĩgũkorwo Jehova Ngai wanyu nĩaceraceeraga kũu kambĩ-inĩ yanyu nĩguo amũgitĩre na aneane thũ cianyu kũrĩ inyuĩ. Kambĩ yanyu no nginya ĩtuĩke theru, nĩgeetha ndakanoone ũndũ ũtagĩrĩire gatagatĩ-inĩ kanyu, nake amweherere.
15 You shall not deliver unto his master the servant which is escaped from his master unto you:
Ngombo ĩngĩgakorwo yũrĩire gwaku, ndũkanamĩneane kũrĩ mwathi wayo.
16 He shall dwell with you, even among you, in that place which he shall choose in one of your gates, where it likes him best: you shall not oppress him.
Reke ĩtũũre gatagatĩ kanyu kũrĩa guothe ĩngĩenda na itũũra-inĩ o rĩothe rĩrĩa ĩngĩthuura. Ndũkanamĩhinyĩrĩrie.
17 There shall be no whore of the daughters of Israel, nor a sodomite of the sons of Israel.
Gũtirĩ Mũisiraeli, mũndũ mũrũme kana mũndũ-wa-nja, ũgaatuĩka mũmaraya wa ihooero.
18 You shall not bring the hire of a whore, or the price of a dog, into the house of the LORD your God for any vow: for even both these are abomination unto the LORD your God.
Mũtikanarehe thĩinĩ wa nyũmba ya Jehova Ngai wanyu mbeeca ithũkũmĩtwo na njĩra ya ũmaraya wa andũ-a-nja kana wa arũme irĩ cia kũhingia mwĩhĩtwa o na ũrĩkũ, nĩ ũndũ Jehova Ngai wanyu nĩathũire maũndũ macio meerĩ.
19 You shall not lend upon interest to your brother; interest of money, interest of victuals, interest of any thing that is lent upon interest:
Ndũkanarĩhie mũrũ wa ithe wanyu uumithio wa kĩndũ ũmũheete, ũrĩ wa mbeeca kana irio kana wa kĩndũ kĩngĩ o gĩothe kĩngĩrehe uumithio.
20 Unto a stranger you may lend upon interest; but unto your brother you shall not lend upon interest: that the LORD your God may bless you in all that you set your hand to in the land where you go to possess it.
No ũrĩhie mũndũ wa kũngĩ uumithio wa kĩndũ ũmuohoreire, no ti mũrũ wa ithe wanyu Mũisiraeli, nĩgeetha Jehova Ngai wanyu amũrathimage maũndũ-inĩ mothe marĩa mũrĩĩkaga bũrũri-inĩ ũrĩa mũrathiĩ mũwĩgwatĩre.
21 When you shall vow a vow unto the LORD your God, you shall not slack to pay it: for the LORD your God will surely require it of you; and it would be sin in you.
Ũngĩkeehĩta mwĩhĩtwa kũrĩ Jehova Ngai waku, ndũgekĩre mũhũthia kũhingia mwĩhĩtwa ũcio, nĩgũkorwo Jehova Ngai waku ndarĩ hĩndĩ atagakũũria ũndũ ũcio, na nĩũgatuuo nĩwĩhĩtie.
22 But if you shall forbear to vow, it shall be no sin in you.
No ũngĩaga kwĩhĩta mwĩhĩtwa, ndũgaakorwo wĩhĩtie.
23 That which is gone out of your lips you shall keep and perform; even a freewill offering, according as you have vowed unto the LORD your God, which you have promised with your mouth.
Ũndũ ũrĩa wothe mĩromo yaku ĩriugaga no nginya ũũhingagie, nĩ ũndũ wehĩtire mwĩhĩtwa kũrĩ Jehova Ngai waku na kanua gaku wĩyendeire.
24 When you come into your neighbour's vineyard, then you may eat grapes your fill at your own pleasure; but you shall not put any in your vessel.
Ũngĩtoonya mũgũnda wa mĩthabibũ wa mũndũ ũngĩ, no ũrĩe thabibũ nginya ũhũũne, no ndũgekĩre o na ĩmwe kĩondo-inĩ gĩaku.
25 When you come into the standing corn of your neighbour, then you may pluck the ears with your hand; but you shall not move a sickle unto your neighbour's standing corn.
Ũngĩtoonya mũgũnda wa ngano wa mũndũ ũngĩ, no ũbute magira mayo na moko, no ndũkanagethe ngano ĩyo yake.
