< Deuteronomy 11 >

1 Therefore you shall love the LORD your God, and keep his instructions, and his statutes, and his ordinances, and his commandments, always.
Endaga Jehova Ngai waku na ũmenyagĩrĩre maũndũ marĩa endaga, arĩ kĩrĩra kĩa watho wake wa kũrũmĩrĩrwo, na mawatho make, na maathani make hĩndĩ ciothe.
2 Know this day: for I do not speak with your children who have not known, and who have not seen the chastisement of the LORD your God, his greatness, his mighty hand, and his outstretched arm,
Ririkana ũmũthĩ atĩ ciana ciaku itionire na itiamenyire kũherithania kwa Jehova Ngai waku: o na itionire ũnene wake na guoko gwake kũrĩa kũrĩ hinya, o na guoko gwake gũtambũrũkĩtio;
3 and his signs, and his works, which he did in the midst of Egypt to Pharaoh the king of Egypt, and to all his land;
o na ciama iria aaringire, na maũndũ marĩa eekire kũu bũrũri wa Misiri, na kũrĩ Firaũni mũthamaki wa bũrũri wa Misiri, na bũrũri wake wothe;
4 and what he did to the army of Egypt, to their horses, and to their chariots; how he made the water of the Red Sea to overflow them as they pursued after you, and how the LORD has destroyed them to this day;
na ũrĩa eekire mbũtũ cia ita cia bũrũri wa Misiri, na mbarathi ciao, na ngaari ciao cia ita, na ũrĩa aamahubĩkanirie na maaĩ ma Iria Itune hĩndĩ ĩyo maathingatanĩte nao, na ũrĩa Jehova aamarehithĩirie mũthiro wa gũtũũra.
5 and what he did to you in the wilderness, until you came to this place;
Ciana cianyu ticio cionire ũrĩa aamwĩkĩire mũrĩ kũu werũ-inĩ, nginya rĩrĩa mwakinyire gũkũ;
6 and what he did to Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab, the son of Reuben; how the earth opened its mouth, and swallowed them up, and their households, and their tents, and every living thing that followed them, in the midst of all Israel:
o na ũrĩa eekire Dathani na Abiramu, ariũ a Eliabu ũrĩa Mũrubeni, rĩrĩa thĩ yamaathamĩirie kanua kayo marĩ gatagatĩ ka andũ a Isiraeli othe, thĩ ĩkĩmameria hamwe na nyũmba ciao, na hema ciao, na kĩrĩa gĩothe maarĩ nakĩo.
7 but your eyes have seen all the great work of the LORD which he did.
No nĩ maitho manyu meeyoneire maũndũ macio mothe manene marĩa Jehova ekĩte.
8 Therefore you shall keep every commandment which I command you this day, that you may be strong, and multiply, and go in and possess the land, where you go over to possess it;
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio menyagĩrĩrai maathani mothe marĩa ndĩramũhe ũmũthĩ, nĩgeetha mũgĩe na hinya wa gũtoonya na wa gũtunyana bũrũri ũrĩa mũraringa Rũũĩ rwa Jorodani mũkawĩgwatĩre,
9 and that you may prolong your days in the land, which the LORD swore to your fathers to give to them and to their descendants, a land flowing with milk and honey.
na nĩgeetha mũgaatũũra matukũ maingĩ bũrũri ũcio Jehova eehĩtire na mwĩhĩtwa atĩ nĩakahe maithe manyu ma tene na njiaro ciao, bũrũri ũrĩ bũthi wa iria na ũũkĩ.
10 For the land, where you go in to possess it, isn't as the land of Egypt, that you came out from, where you sowed your seed, and watered it with your feet, as a garden of herbs;
Bũrũri ũrĩa mũrathiĩ mũkaũtunyane ndũhaana ta bũrũri wa Misiri, kũrĩa muumĩte, kũrĩa mwahaandaga mbegũ cianyu na mũgaciunithagĩria maaĩ na magũrũ taarĩ mũgũnda wa mboga.
11 but the land, where you go over to possess it, is a land of hills and valleys which drinks water of the rain of the sky,
No rĩrĩ, bũrũri ũrĩa mũraringa Rũũĩ rwa Jorodani mũkegwatĩre nĩ bũrũri ũrĩ irĩma na cianda iria inyuuaga maaĩ ma mbura kuuma igũrũ.
12 a land which the LORD your God cares for: the eyes of the LORD your God are always on it, from the beginning of the year even to the end of the year.
Nĩ bũrũri ũmenyagĩrĩrwo nĩ Jehova Ngai wanyu; maitho ma Jehova Ngai wanyu maikaraga maũcũthĩrĩirie kuuma kĩambĩrĩria kĩa mwaka nginya mũthia waguo.
13 It shall happen, if you shall listen diligently to my commandments which I command you this day, to love the LORD your God, and to serve him with all your heart and with all your soul,
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio mũngĩathĩkĩra maathani marĩa ndĩramũhe ũmũthĩ mũrĩ na wĩhokeku, na mwendage Jehova Ngai wanyu, na mũmũtungatagĩre na ngoro cianyu ciothe na muoyo wanyu wothe-rĩ,
14 that I will give the rain of your land in its season, the former rain and the latter rain, that you may gather in your grain, and your new wine, and your oil.
hĩndĩ ĩyo nĩngoiria mbura bũrũri wanyu kĩmera kĩayo gĩakinya, mbura ya mũringo na ya gũkũria irio, nĩgeetha mũgaacookagĩrĩria ngano yanyu, na ndibei ya mũhihano na maguta.
15 I will give grass in your fields for your livestock, and you shall eat and be full.
Nĩngatũma kũgĩe na nyeki ithaka-inĩ nĩ ũndũ wa ngʼombe cianyu, na mũkarĩĩaga mũkahũũna.
16 Be careful, lest your heart be deceived, and you turn aside, and serve other gods, and worship them;
Mwĩmenyagĩrĩrei mũtikanaguucĩrĩrio, mũgarũrũke mũhooe ngai ingĩ na mũciinamĩrĩre.
17 and the anger of the LORD be kindled against you, and he shut up the sky, so that there shall be no rain, and the land shall not yield its fruit; and you perish quickly from off the good land which the LORD gives you.
Mũngĩkaguucĩrĩrio, marakara ma Jehova nĩmakamũũkĩrĩra mamũcine, na nĩakahinga igũrũ nĩgeetha gũtikoire nayo thĩ yage kũruta maciaro, na inyuĩ nĩmũgathira o narua mwehere bũrũri ũcio mwega Jehova aramũhe.
18 Therefore you shall lay up these my words in your heart and in your soul; and you shall bind them for a sign on your hand, and they shall be for symbols between your eyes.
Igaai ciugo ici ciakwa ngoro-inĩ cianyu na meciiria-inĩ manyu; ciohagĩrĩrei moko-inĩ manyu irĩ imenyithia, na mũciohagĩrĩre mothiũ-inĩ manyu.
19 You shall teach them your children, talking of them, when you sit in your house, and when you walk by the way, and when you lie down, and when you rise up.
Cirutagei ciana cianyu, na mũciaragie rĩrĩa mũikarĩte kwanyu mĩciĩ na rĩrĩa mũrathiĩ na njĩra, na rĩrĩa mũkomete na rĩrĩa muokĩra.
20 You shall write them on the door posts of your house, and on your gates;
Ciandĩkei hingĩro-inĩ cia mĩrango ya nyũmba cianyu o na mũciandĩke ihingo-inĩ cianyu,
21 that your days may be multiplied, and the days of your children, in the land which the LORD swore to your fathers to give them, as the days of the heavens above the earth.
nĩgeetha matukũ manyu na matukũ ma ciana cianyu maingĩhe kũu bũrũri-inĩ ũcio Jehova eehĩtire na mwĩhĩtwa atĩ nĩakahe maithe manyu ma tene; maingĩhe o ta matukũ marĩa igũrũ rĩgũtũũra rĩ igũrũ wa thĩ.
22 For if you shall diligently keep all this commandment which I command you to do, to love the LORD your God, to walk in all his ways, and to cling to him;
Mũngĩmenyerera wega maathani maya mothe ndĩramũhe mũmarũmagĩrĩre, mwendage Jehova Ngai wanyu, na mũthiage na njĩra ciake ciothe na mũikarage mwĩgwatanĩtie nake-rĩ,
23 then will the LORD drive out all these nations from before you, and you shall dispossess nations greater and mightier than yourselves.
hĩndĩ ĩyo Jehova nĩakaingata ndũrĩrĩ icio ciothe ciehere mbere yanyu, na inyuĩ mwĩgwatĩre kũndũ kũu kwa ndũrĩrĩ nene na irĩ hinya kũmũkĩra.
24 Every place whereon the sole of your foot shall tread shall be yours: from the wilderness, and Lebanon, from the river, the river Perath, even to the western sea shall be your border.
Kũndũ guothe kũrĩa mũgaakinyithia makinya manyu gũgaatuĩka kwanyu; bũrũri wanyu ũkoima werũ-inĩ ũkinye Lebanoni, na uume Rũũĩ rwa Farati ũkinye iria-inĩ rĩa mwena wa ithũĩro.
25 No man shall be able to stand before you: the LORD your God shall lay the fear of you and the dread of you on all the land that you shall tread on, as he has spoken to you.
Gũtirĩ mũndũ ũkaahota kũmwĩtiiria. O ta ũrĩa aamwĩrĩire, Jehova Ngai wanyu nĩagatũma mwĩtigĩrwo nĩ andũ a bũrũri wothe kũrĩa guothe mũgaathiĩ.
26 Look, I set before you this day a blessing and a curse:
Atĩrĩrĩ, ũmũthĩ ndĩramũigĩra kĩrathimo mbere yanyu na ngamũigĩra kĩrumi,
27 the blessing, if you shall listen to the commandments of the LORD your God, which I command you this day;
ndĩramũigĩra kĩrathimo angĩkorwo nĩmũgwathĩkĩra maathani ma Jehova Ngai wanyu marĩa ndĩramũhe ũmũthĩ;
28 and the curse, if you shall not listen to the commandments of the LORD your God, but turn aside out of the way which I command you this day, to go after other gods, which you have not known.
na ngamũigĩra kĩrumi angĩkorwo nĩmũrĩagaga gwathĩkĩra maathani ma Jehova Ngai wanyu mũgatiga gũthiĩ na njĩra ĩrĩa ngũmwatha ũmũthĩ, na ũndũ wa kũrũmĩrĩra ngai ingĩ, iria mũtooĩ.
29 It shall happen, when the LORD your God shall bring you into the land where you go to possess it, that you shall set the blessing on Mount Gerizim, and the curse on Mount Ebal.
Rĩrĩa Jehova Ngai wanyu akaamũkinyia bũrũri ũrĩa mũrathiĩ mũkawĩgwatĩre, nĩmũkanĩrĩra ũhoro wa kĩrathimo kĩu kĩrĩma-inĩ kĩa Gerizimu, nakĩo kĩrumi mũheanĩre ũhoro wakĩo kĩrĩma-inĩ kĩa Ebali.
30 Aren't they beyond the Jordan, behind the way of the going down of the sun, in the land of the Canaanites who dwell in the Arabah, over against Gilgal, beside the oaks of Moreh?
O ta ũrĩa mũũĩ, irĩma icio irĩ kũu mũrĩmo wa Rũũĩ rwa Jorodani, mwena wa ithũĩro wa njĩra kwerekera na kũrĩa riũa rĩthũagĩra, gũkuhĩ na mĩtĩ ĩrĩa mĩnene ya More, kũu bũrũri wa andũ a Kaanani arĩa matũũraga Araba gũkuhĩ na Giligali.
31 For you are to pass over the Jordan to go in to possess the land which the LORD your God gives you, and you shall possess it, and dwell in it.
Mũrĩ hakuhĩ kũringa Rũũĩ rwa Jorodani mũtoonye mũkegwatĩre bũrũri ũcio Jehova Ngai wanyu aramũhe. Rĩrĩa mũgaakorwo mũwoete na mũgatũũra kuo-rĩ,
32 You shall observe to do all the statutes and the ordinances which I set before you this day.
menyagĩrĩrai gwathĩkĩra kĩrĩra kĩa watho wa kũrũmĩrĩrwo, na mawatho marĩa ndĩramũhe ũmũthĩ.
