Exodus 33
1 And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, 'Go, ascend from this [place], thou and the people, whom thou hast brought up out of the land of Egypt, unto the land which I have sworn to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, saying, To thy seed I give 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 have sent before thee a messenger, and have cast out the Canaanite, the Amorite, and the Hittite, and the Perizzite, the Hivite, and the Jebusite, )
Nĩngũtũma mũraika mbere yanyu na nĩngaingata Akaanani, na Aamori, na Ahiti, na Aperizi, na Ahivi, na Ajebusi.
3 unto a land flowing with milk and honey, for I do not go up in thy midst, for thou [art] a stiff-necked people — lest 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 the people hear this sad thing, and mourn; and none put his ornaments on him.
Rĩrĩa andũ acio maiguire ciugo icio cia kũmathĩĩnia ngoro, makĩambĩrĩria gũcakaya na gũtirĩ mũndũ wacookire kwĩhumba mathaga.
5 And Jehovah saith unto Moses, 'Say unto the sons of Israel, Ye [are] a stiff-necked people; one moment — I come up into thy midst, and have consumed thee; and now, put down thine ornaments from off thee, and I know what I do to 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 and the sons of Israel take off their ornaments at mount Horeb.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio andũ a Isiraeli makĩrutĩra mathaga mao hau kĩrĩma-inĩ kĩa Horebu.
7 And Moses taketh the tent, and hath stretched it out at the outside of the camp, afar off from the camp, and hath called it, 'Tent of Meeting;' and it hath come to pass, every one seeking Jehovah goeth out unto the tent of meeting, which [is] at the outside of the camp.
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 it hath come to pass, at the going out of Moses unto the tent, all the people rise, and have stood, each at the opening of his tent, and have looked expectingly after Moses, until his going into the tent.
Na rĩrĩa rĩothe Musa aathiiaga hema-inĩ, andũ othe mookĩraga makarũgama nja ya hema ciao, magacũthĩrĩria Musa nginya rĩrĩa arĩtoonya hema ĩyo.
9 And it hath come to pass, at the going in of Moses to the tent, the pillar of the cloud cometh down, and hath stood at the opening of the tent, and He hath spoken with Moses;
Musa agĩtoonya hema ĩyo, gĩtugĩ gĩa itu gĩaikũrũkaga gĩgaikara itoonyero-inĩ Jehova akĩaria na Musa.
10 and all the people have seen the pillar of the cloud standing at the opening of the tent, and all the people have risen and bowed themselves, each at the opening of his tent.
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 Jehovah hath spoken unto Moses face unto face, as a man speaketh unto his friend; and he hath turned back unto the camp, and his minister Joshua, son of Nun, a youth, departeth not out of the tent.
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 And Moses saith unto Jehovah, 'See, Thou art saying unto me, Bring up this people, and Thou hast not caused me to know whom Thou dost send with me; and Thou hast said, I have known thee by name, and also thou hast found grace in Mine eyes.
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 'And now, if, I pray Thee, I have found grace in Thine eyes, cause me to know, I pray Thee, Thy way, and I know Thee, so that I find grace in Thine eyes, and consider 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 saith, 'My presence doth go, and I have given rest to thee.'
Jehova akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Niĩ Mwene nĩngũtwarana na inyuĩ na ndĩmũhe ũhurũko.”
15 And he saith unto Him, 'If Thy presence is not going — take us not up from this [place];
Nake Musa akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Angĩkorwo ndũgũtwarana hamwe na ithuĩ, ndũgatũme tuume haha.
16 and in what is it known now, that I have found grace in Thine eyes — I and Thy people — is it not in Thy going with us? and we have been distinguished — I and Thy people — from all the people who [are] on the face of the ground.'
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 Jehovah saith unto Moses, 'Even this thing which thou hast spoken I do; for thou hast found grace in Mine eyes, and I know thee by name.'
Nake Jehova akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ, “Nĩngwĩka o ũrĩa ũnjũũrĩtie njĩke, tondũ nĩngenetio nĩwe, na nĩngũũĩ na rĩĩtwa rĩaku.”
18 And he saith, 'Shew me, I pray Thee, Thine honour;'
Ningĩ Musa akiuga atĩrĩ, “Nyonia riiri waku ũrĩa ũtariĩ.”
19 and He saith, 'I cause all My goodness to pass before thy face, and have called concerning the Name of Jehovah before thee, and favoured him whom I favour, and loved him whom I love.'
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 He saith also, 'Thou art unable to see My face, for man doth not see Me, and live;'
No Jehova akiuga atĩrĩ, “Ndũngĩona ũthiũ wakwa, nĩgũkorwo gũtirĩ mũndũ ũngĩona ũthiũ wakwa na acooke atũũre muoyo.”
21 Jehovah also saith, 'Lo, a place [is] by Me, and thou hast stood on the rock,
Ningĩ Jehova akiuga atĩrĩ, “Nĩ harĩ handũ hakuhĩ na niĩ, harĩa ũngĩrũgama igũrũ rĩa mwaro rwa ihiga.
22 and it hath come to pass, in the passing by of Mine honour, that I have set thee in a cleft of the rock, and spread out My hands over thee, until My passing 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 and I have turned aside My hands, and thou hast seen My back parts, and My face is not seen.'
Rĩrĩa ndĩrĩeheria guoko gwakwa, nawe nĩũrĩnyona na thuutha; no ũthiũ wakwa ndũngĩonwo.”
