< Deuteronomy 29 >
1 These are the words of the covenant, which the Lord commanded Moses to make with the children of Israel in the land of Moab, besides the covenant which he had made with them in Horeb.
Ici nĩcio ciugo cia kĩrĩkanĩro kĩrĩa Jehova aathire Musa arĩkanĩre na andũ a Isiraeli kũu Moabi, hamwe na kĩrĩkanĩro kĩrĩa aarĩkanĩire nao marĩ Horebu.
2 And Moses called unto all Israel, and said unto them, Ye yourselves have seen all that the Lord hath done before your eyes in the land of Egypt unto Pharaoh, and unto all his servants, and unto all his land;
Musa nĩetire andũ a Isiraeli othe, akĩmeera atĩrĩ: Maitho manyu nĩmeyoneire ũrĩa wothe Jehova eekire Firaũni kũu bũrũri wa Misiri, na ũrĩa eekire anene ake othe na bũrũri wake wothe.
3 The great proofs which thy eyes have seen, those great signs, and miracles:
Nĩmweyoneire na maitho manyu magerio macio manene, o na ciama na maũndũ manene ma kũgegania.
4 Yet the Lord gave you not a heart to perceive, and eyes to see, and ears to hear, until this day.
No nginya ũmũthĩ Jehova ndamũheete meciiria marĩ na ũmenyo, kana maitho me kuona, kana matũ me kũigua.
5 And I have led you forty years in the wilderness; your clothes did not fall worn out from off you, and thy shoe did not fall worn out from off thy foot.
Ihinda rĩu rĩa mĩaka mĩrongo ĩna ndamũtongoririe werũ-inĩ, nguo cianyu itiigana gũtuĩka, o na kana iraatũ iria ciarĩ magũrũ manyu igĩtarũka.
6 Bread have ye not eaten, and wine or strong drink have ye not drunk; in order that ye might understand that I am the Lord your God.
Mũtiigana kũrĩa irio, kana mũkĩnyua ndibei kana kĩndũ kĩngĩ o gĩothe kĩgagatu. Ndeekire ũndũ ũcio nĩgeetha mũmenye atĩ niĩ nĩ niĩ Jehova Ngai wanyu.
7 And when ye came unto this place, Sichon the king of Cheshbon, and 'Og the king of Bashan went out against us unto battle, and we smote them:
Rĩrĩa mwakinyire gũkũ, Sihoni mũthamaki wa Heshiboni, na Ogu mũthamaki wa Bashani nĩmookire kũhũũrana na ithuĩ, no nĩtwamatooririe.
8 And we took their land, and gave it for an inheritance unto the Reubenites, and to the Gadites, and to the half tribe of the Menassites.
Nĩtwegwatĩire bũrũri wao na tũkĩũheana ũtuĩke igai rĩa andũ a mũhĩrĩga wa Rubeni, na wa Gadi, na nuthu ya mũhĩrĩga wa Manase.
9 Keep ye therefore the words of this covenant, and do them, that ye may prosper in all that ye do.
Rũmĩrĩrai wega ciugo cia kĩrĩkanĩro gĩkĩ, nĩguo mũgaacĩre maũndũ-inĩ mothe marĩa mũrĩĩkaga.
10 Ye are standing this day, all of you, before the Lord your God; your heads of your tribes, your elders, and your officers, all the men of Israel,
Inyuĩ inyuothe mũrũgamĩte ũmũthĩ mbere ya Jehova Ngai wanyu, na atongoria anyu, na atongoria a mĩhĩrĩga yanyu, na athuuri anyu, na anene anyu, na arũme arĩa angĩ othe a Isiraeli,
11 Your little ones, your wives, and thy stranger that is in the midst of thy camp, from the hewer of thy wood unto the drawer of thy water:
hamwe na ciana cianyu, na atumia anyu, na andũ a kũngĩ arĩa matũũraga kambĩ-inĩ cianyu, arĩa mamunagĩra ngũ na makamũtahĩra maaĩ.
12 That thou shouldst enter into the covenant of the Lord thy God, and into his oath of denunciation, which the Lord thy God maketh with thee this day.
Mũrũgamĩte haha nĩguo mũgĩe na kĩrĩkanĩro na Jehova Ngai wanyu, kĩrĩkanĩro kĩrĩa Jehova ekũgĩa na inyuĩ ũmũthĩ, na akĩhũũre mũhũũri na ũndũ wa mwĩhĩtwa,
13 In order to raise thee up today unto himself for a people, and that he may be unto thee a God, as he hath spoken unto thee, and as he hath sworn unto thy fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob.
na agĩĩkĩre hinya kũna atĩ mũrĩ andũ ake ũmũthĩ, na atĩ atuĩke Ngai wanyu, o ta ũrĩa aamwĩrĩire, na ningĩ o ta ũrĩa eehĩtire kũrĩ maithe manyu Iburahĩmu, na Isaaka, na Jakubu.
14 And not with you alone do I make this covenant and this oath;
Ndirathondeka kĩrĩkanĩro gĩkĩ na mwĩhĩtwa na inyuĩ inyuiki,
15 But with him that is standing here with us this day before the Lord our God, and with him that is not here with us this day.
o inyuĩ mũrũgamĩte haha na ithuĩ ũmũthĩ mbere ya Jehova Ngai witũ, no nĩ hamwe na arĩa matarĩ haha ũmũthĩ.
16 (For ye know how we dwelt in the land of Egypt; and how we passed through the nations through which ye have passed;
Inyuĩ ene nĩmũũĩ ũrĩa twatũũraga bũrũri wa Misiri na ũrĩa twatuĩkanĩirie mabũrũri-inĩ tũgĩũka gũkũ.
17 And ye saw their abominations, and their idols, of wood and stone, silver and gold, which they had with them: )
Gatagatĩ-inĩ kao nĩmuonire mĩhianano yao ĩrĩ thaahu, na ngai cia kũhooywo cia mĩtĩ na cia mahiga, na cia betha na cia thahabu.
18 So that there may not be among you a man, or a woman, or a family, or a tribe, whose heart turneth away this day from the Lord our God, to go to serve the gods of these nations; that there may not be among you a root that beareth abundantly poison and wormwood.
Menyererai wega hatigakorwo mũndũ mũrũme kana mũndũ-wa-nja, kana andũ a nyũmba ĩmwe kana mũhĩrĩga gatagatĩ-inĩ kanyu ũmũthĩ, ũngĩgĩa na ngoro ya kũhutatĩra Jehova Ngai witũ athiĩ akahooe ngai cia ndũrĩrĩ icio; menyererai wega gũtikagĩe mũri mũrũrũ gatagatĩ kanyu ũngĩciara maciaro marũrũ ta nyongo.
19 And it might come to pass, when he heareth the words of this denunciation, that he would bless himself in his heart, saying, There will be peace unto me, though I walk in the stubbornness of my heart; in order that the indulgence of the passions may appease the thirst [for them]:
Rĩrĩa mũndũ ta ũcio aigua ciugo cia mwĩhĩtwa ũyũ, eĩtagĩria kĩrathimo, na nĩ ũndũ ũcio ageciiria atĩrĩ, “Ndikona ũgwati o na ingĩkĩrĩria gũthiĩ na njĩra yakwa mwene.” Ũndũ ũcio nĩũkarehe mwanangĩko bũrũri ũrĩa ũrĩ maaĩ, o na ũrĩa mũngʼaru.
20 The Lord will not pardon him; but then the anger of the Lord and his jealousy will smoke against that man, and there shall rest upon him all the curse that is written in this book; and the Lord will blot out his name from under the heavens.
Jehova ndarĩ hĩndĩ akenda kũmũrekera; marakara make na kĩyo gĩake nĩikarĩrĩmbũkĩra mũndũ ũcio. Irumi ciothe iria ciandĩkĩtwo ibuku-inĩ rĩĩrĩ nĩikamũkinyĩrĩra, nake Jehova nĩakahuura rĩĩtwa rĩake rĩehere gũkũ thĩ.
21 And the Lord will single him out unto evil out of all the tribes of Israel, according to all the denunciations of the covenant which is written in this book of the law.
Jehova nĩakamwamũra kuuma mĩhĩrĩga-inĩ yothe ya Isiraeli, anyiitwo nĩ mwanangĩko, kũringana na irumi ciothe cia kĩrĩkanĩro kĩrĩa kĩandĩke thĩinĩ wa Ibuku rĩĩrĩ rĩa Watho.
22 And the latest generation, your children that will rise up after you, and the stranger that will come from a far land, will say, when they see the plagues of that land, and its sufferings with which the Lord hath smitten it;
Ciana cianyu iria ikaamũrũmĩrĩra njiaro-inĩ iria igooka thuutha, o na ageni arĩa magooka moimĩte mabũrũri ma kũraya nĩmakona mathĩĩna marĩa makorete bũrũri o na mĩrimũ ĩrĩa Jehova ahũũrĩte bũrũri nayo.
23 [That] the whole soil thereof is brimstone, and salt, and a burning waste, which is not sown, and beareth not, and in which no kind of grass springeth up, like the overthrow of Sodom, and Gomorrah, Admah, and Zeboyim, which the Lord overthrew in his anger, and in his wrath: —
Bũrũri wothe ũgaatuĩka kũndũ gũtangĩkũra kĩndũ, kũiyũrĩte cumbĩ na ũbiriti, gũtirĩ kĩndũ gĩkahaandwo na gũtirĩ riya rĩgaakũra kuo, kana kĩndũ kĩmere kuo. Gũkahaana ta mwanangĩko wa matũũra ma Sodomu na Gomora, na Adima o na Zeboimu, marĩa Jehova aaharaganirie arĩ na marakara mahiũ.
24 Even all the nations will say, Wherefore hath the Lord done thus unto this land? whence the heat of this great anger?
Ndũrĩrĩ ciothe ikooria atĩrĩ, “Nĩ kĩĩ gĩtũmĩte Jehova eke bũrũri ũyũ ũguo? Marakara maya mahiũ ũũ, nĩ ma kĩ?”
25 Then shall men say, Because they had forsaken the covenant of the Lord, the God of their fathers, which he made with them when he brought them forth out of the land of Egypt;
Narĩo icookio rĩgaakorwo rĩrĩ atĩrĩ, “Nĩ tondũ andũ aya nĩmatiganĩirie kĩrĩkanĩro kĩa Jehova, Ngai wa maithe mao, kĩrĩkanĩro kĩrĩa aagĩire nao rĩrĩa aamarutire bũrũri wa Misiri.
26 And they went and served other gods, and bowed down to them, gods which they knew not, and which he had not assigned unto them;
Nĩmamwehereire magĩthiĩ kũhooya ngai ingĩ na magĩciinamĩrĩra, ngai matooĩ, na ngai Jehova ataamaheete.
27 And the anger of the Lord was kindled against this land, to bring upon it the entire curse that is written in this book;
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio marakara ma Jehova makĩrĩrĩmbũkĩra bũrũri ũyũ, akĩũkinyĩria irumi iria ciothe ciandĩkĩtwo ibuku-inĩ rĩĩrĩ.
28 And the Lord plucked them out of their land in anger, and in wrath, and in great indignation, and he cast them into another land, as it is this day.
Ningĩ Jehova, arĩ na marakara mahiũ na mangʼũrĩ manene, nĩamamunyire kuuma bũrũri wao akĩmaikia bũrũri ũngĩ, ta ũrĩa gũtariĩ rĩu.”
29 The secret things belong unto the Lord our God; but those things which are publicly known belong unto us and to our children for ever, to do all the words of this law.
Maũndũ ma hitho nĩ ma Jehova Ngai witũ, no maũndũ marĩa maguũrie nĩ maitũ na ciana ciitũ nginya tene, nĩguo tũrũmagĩrĩre ciugo ciothe cia watho ũyũ.
