< Deuteronomy 11 >

1 Therefore thou shalt love the LORD thy God, and keep his charge, and his statutes, and his judgments, 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 And know ye this day: for I speak not 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 miracles, and his acts, 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 hath 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 ye 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 her mouth, and swallowed them up, and their households, and their tents, and all the substance that was in their possession, 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 acts of the LORD which he did.
No nĩ maitho manyu meeyoneire maũndũ macio mothe manene marĩa Jehova ekĩte.
8 Therefore shall ye keep all the commandments which I command you this day, that ye may be strong, and go in and possess the land, where ye go 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 ye may prolong your days in the land, which the LORD swore to your fathers to give to them and to their seed, a land that floweth 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 thou goest in to possess it, is not as the land of Egypt, from which ye came out, where thou didst sow thy seed, and water it with thy foot, 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 ye go to possess it, is a land of hills and valleys, and drinketh water of the rain of heaven:
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 thy God careth for: the eyes of the LORD thy God are always upon 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 And it shall come to pass, if ye shall hearken 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 you the rain of your land in its due season, the former rain and the latter rain, that thou mayest gather in thy grain, and thy wine, and thy 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 And I will give grass in thy fields for thy cattle, that thou mayest eat and be full.
Nĩngatũma kũgĩe na nyeki ithaka-inĩ nĩ ũndũ wa ngʼombe cianyu, na mũkarĩĩaga mũkahũũna.
16 Take heed to yourselves, that your heart be not deceived, and ye turn aside, and serve other gods, and worship them;
Mwĩmenyagĩrĩrei mũtikanaguucĩrĩrio, mũgarũrũke mũhooe ngai ingĩ na mũciinamĩrĩre.
17 And then the LORD’S wrath shall be kindled against you, and he shall shut up the heaven, that there shall be no rain, and the land shall not yield its fruit; and lest ye perish quickly from off the good land which the LORD giveth 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 shall ye lay up these my words in your heart and in your soul, and bind them for a sign upon your hand, that they may be as frontlets 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 And ye shall teach them to your children, speaking of them when thou sittest in thy house, and when thou walkest by the way, when thou liest down, and when thou risest up.
Cirutagei ciana cianyu, na mũciaragie rĩrĩa mũikarĩte kwanyu mĩciĩ na rĩrĩa mũrathiĩ na njĩra, na rĩrĩa mũkomete na rĩrĩa muokĩra.
20 And thou shalt write them upon the door posts of thy house, and upon thy 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 to them, as the days of heaven upon 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 ye shall diligently keep all these commandments which I command you, to do them, to love the LORD your God, to walk in all his ways, and to cleave 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 ye shall possess greater nations 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 on which the soles of your feet shall tread shall be yours: from the wilderness and Lebanon, from the river, the river Euphrates, even to the uttermost sea shall your border be.
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 There shall no man be able to stand before you: for the LORD your God shall lay the fear of you and the dread of you upon all the land that ye shall tread upon, as he hath said to you.
Gũtirĩ mũndũ ũkaahota kũmwĩtiiria. O ta ũrĩa aamwĩrĩire, Jehova Ngai wanyu nĩagatũma mwĩtigĩrwo nĩ andũ a bũrũri wothe kũrĩa guothe mũgaathiĩ.
26 Behold, I set before you this day a blessing and a curse;
Atĩrĩrĩ, ũmũthĩ ndĩramũigĩra kĩrathimo mbere yanyu na ngamũigĩra kĩrumi,
27 A blessing, if ye obey 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 a curse, if ye will not obey the commandments of the LORD your God, but turn aside from the way which I command you this day, to go after other gods, which ye 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 And it shall come to pass, when the LORD thy God hath brought thee in to the land where thou goest to possess it, that thou shalt put the blessing upon mount Gerizim, and the curse upon 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 Are they not on the other side of Jordan, by the way where the sun goeth down, in the land of the Canaanites, who dwell in the plain opposite Gilgal, beside the plains 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 ye shall pass over Jordan to go in to possess the land which the LORD your God giveth you, and ye 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 And ye shall observe to do all the statutes and judgments which I set before you this day.
menyagĩrĩrai gwathĩkĩra kĩrĩra kĩa watho wa kũrũmĩrĩrwo, na mawatho marĩa ndĩramũhe ũmũthĩ.
