Gũcookerithia 14
1 Inyuĩ nĩ inyuĩ ciana cia Jehova Ngai wanyu. Mũtikanetemange kana mwenjwo ihara ũthiũ-inĩ nĩ ũndũ wa mũndũ mũkuũ,
You are the children of the LORD your God. You shall not cut yourselves, nor make any baldness between your eyes for the dead.
2 nĩgũkorwo mũrĩ andũ mamũrĩirwo Jehova Ngai wanyu. Kuuma ndũrĩrĩ-inĩ ciothe cia thĩ, Jehova nĩamũthuurĩte mũtuĩke andũ ake a bata.
For you are a holy people to the LORD your God, and the LORD has chosen you to be a people for his own possession, above all peoples who are on the face of the earth.
3 Mũtikanarĩe kĩndũ o nakĩ kĩrĩ thaahu.
You shall not eat any abominable thing.
4 Ici nĩcio nyamũ iria mwagĩrĩirwo kũrĩa: nĩ ndegwa, na ngʼondu, na mbũri,
These are the animals which you may eat: the ox, the sheep, the goat,
5 na thwariga, na thiiya, na thwara, na mbũri ya werũ, na ndoo, na ngondi, o na ngʼondu cia irĩma-inĩ.
the deer, the gazelle, the roebuck, the wild goat, the ibex, the antelope, and the chamois.
6 No mũrĩe nyamũ o yothe ĩrĩ mahũngũ maatũku na makarekania na nĩĩcookagia ithagumia.
Every animal that parts the hoof, and has the hoof split in two and chews the cud, among the animals, you may eat.
7 No rĩrĩ, harĩ nyamũ iria ĩcookagia ithagumia kana irĩ mahũngũ maatũku marekanĩtie biũ, mũtikanarĩe ngamĩĩra, kana mbũkũ, kana ikami. O na gũtuĩka nĩicookagia ithagumia, mahũngũ ma cio ti maatũku, icio irĩ thaahu harĩ inyuĩ.
Nevertheless these you shall not eat of them that chew the cud, or of those who have the hoof split: the camel, the hare, and the rabbit. Because they chew the cud but do not part the hoof, they are unclean to you.
8 Nayo ngũrwe, o na akorwo mahũngũ mayo nĩmarekanĩtie biũ-rĩ, ndĩcookagia ithagumia; ĩyo ĩrĩ thaahu harĩ inyuĩ. Mũtikanarĩe nyama ciacio kana mũhutie ciimba ciacio.
The pig, because it has a split hoof but does not chew the cud, is unclean to you. You shall not eat their meat. You shall not touch their carcasses.
9 Thĩinĩ wa nyamũ ciothe iria itũũraga maaĩ-inĩ, no mũrĩĩage ĩrĩa yothe ĩrĩ mathagu manyiitaine na ĩrĩ ngaracũ mwĩrĩ.
These you may eat of all that are in the waters: you may eat whatever has fins and scales.
10 No ĩrĩa yothe ĩtarĩ tũthagu na ngaracũ, mũtikanamĩrĩe; nĩgũkorwo ĩrĩ thaahu harĩ inyuĩ.
You shall not eat whatever does not have fins and scales. It is unclean to you.
11 No mũrĩe nyoni o yothe ĩrĩa ĩtarĩ thaahu.
Of all clean birds you may eat.
12 No ici mũtikanarĩe: nderi, na ndiyũ, na ndiyũ iria njirũ,
But these are they of which you shall not eat: the eagle, the vulture, the osprey,
13 na hũngũ ĩrĩa ndune na mũthemba o wothe wa hũngũ iria njirũ,
the red kite, the falcon, the kite of any kind,
14 na mũthemba o wothe wa mahuru

All winged creeping things are unclean to you. They shall not be eaten.

Of all clean birds you may eat.
21 Mũtikanarĩe kĩndũ o na kĩrĩkũ kĩrĩa mũgaakora gĩkuĩte. No mũkĩhe mũndũ wa kũngĩ ũrĩa ũtũũraga itũũra-inĩ o rĩothe rĩa matũũra manyu, nake no akĩrĩe, kana ũkĩenderie mũrũrĩrĩ. No inyuĩ mũrĩ andũ maamũrĩirwo Jehova Ngai wanyu. Mũtikanaruge koori na iria rĩa nyina.
You shall not eat of anything that dies of itself. You may give it to the foreigner living among you who is within your gates, that he may eat it; or you may sell it to a foreigner; for you are a holy people to the LORD your God. You shall not boil a young goat in its mother’s milk.
22 Menyererai mũrutage gĩcunjĩ gĩa ikũmi kĩa maciaro mothe ma mĩgũnda yanyu mwaka o mwaka.
You shall surely tithe all the increase of your seed, that which comes out of the field year by year.
23 Rĩagĩrai gĩcunjĩ gĩa ikũmi kĩa ngano yanyu, na ndibei yanyu ya mũhihano, na maguta manyu, na marigithathi manyu ma ndũũru cianyu cia ngʼombe na cia mbũri mbere ya Jehova Ngai wanyu mũrĩ handũ harĩa agaathuura ha gũtũũria Rĩĩtwa rĩake, nĩgeetha mwĩrute gwĩtigĩra Jehova Ngai wanyu hĩndĩ ciothe.
You shall eat before the LORD your God, in the place which he chooses to cause his name to dwell, the tithe of your grain, of your new wine, and of your oil, and the firstborn of your herd and of your flock; that you may learn to fear the LORD your God always.
24 No rĩrĩ, handũ hau hangĩkorwo nĩ haraihu mũno, na Jehova Ngai wanyu nĩamũrathimĩte na mũtingĩhota gũkuua gĩcunjĩ kĩanyu gĩa ikũmi mũtware handũ hau (nĩ ũndũ handũ hau Jehova agaathuura ha gũtũũria Rĩĩtwa rĩake nĩhamũraihĩrĩirie mũno-rĩ),
If the way is too long for you, so that you are not able to carry it because the place which the LORD your God shall choose to set his name there is too far from you, when the LORD your God blesses you,
25 hĩndĩ ĩyo mũgaakũũrania gĩcunjĩ kĩanyu gĩa ikũmi na betha, na inyuĩ mũtware betha ĩyo handũ harĩa Jehova Ngai wanyu agaathuura.
then you shall turn it into money, bind up the money in your hand, and shall go to the place which the LORD your God shall choose.
26 Hũthĩrai betha ĩyo na kũgũra kĩrĩa gĩothe mũngĩenda: ngʼombe, kana ngʼondu, kana ndibei o na kana kĩndũ kĩgagatie gĩa kũnyua, kana o kĩndũ gĩothe kĩrĩa mũngĩenda. Ningĩ inyuĩ na andũ a nyũmba cianyu mũkaarĩĩra indo icio o hau mbere ya Jehova Ngai wanyu mũkenete.
You shall trade the money for whatever your soul desires: for cattle, or for sheep, or for wine, or for strong drink, or for whatever your soul asks of you. You shall eat there before the LORD your God, and you shall rejoice, you and your household.
27 Na mũtikanarekererie Alawii arĩa matũũraga matũũra-inĩ manyu, nĩgũkorwo matirĩ gĩthaka kana igai rĩao ene.
You shall not forsake the Levite who is within your gates, for he has no portion nor inheritance with you.
28 Na rĩrĩ, o mĩaka ĩtatũ yathira, mũrutage icunjĩ cia ikũmi cia uumithio wanyu wothe wa mwaka ũcio, mũgaaciga kũu matũũra-inĩ manyu,
At the end of every three years you shall bring all the tithe of your increase in the same year, and shall store it within your gates.
29 nĩgeetha Alawii (arĩa matarĩ agaĩre gĩthaka kana igai rĩao ene), na andũ a kũngĩ, na ciana cia ngoriai, na atumia a ndigwa arĩa matũũraga matũũra-inĩ manyu, magookaga makarĩa na makahũũna, nĩguo Jehova Ngai wanyu amũrathimage wĩra-inĩ wothe wa moko manyu.
The Levite, because he has no portion nor inheritance with you, as well as the foreigner living among you, the fatherless, and the widow who are within your gates shall come, and shall eat and be satisfied; that the LORD your God may bless you in all the work of your hand which you do.
