1 Mũtikanarutĩre Jehova Ngai wanyu igongona rĩa ndegwa kana rĩa ngʼondu ĩrĩ na kaũũgũ kana ũũgũ, nĩgũkorwo ũndũ ũcio ũrĩ thaahu harĩ Jehova.
You shall not sacrifice to Jehovah your God an ox, or a sheep, in which is a blemish, or anything evil; for that is an abomination to Jehovah your God.
2 Mũndũ mũrũme kana mũndũ-wa-nja ũtũũranagia na inyuĩ itũũra-inĩ rĩmwe rĩa kũrĩa Jehova ekũmũhe, angĩoneka agĩĩka ũũru maitho-inĩ ma Jehova Ngai wanyu na ũndũ wa gũthũkia kĩrĩkanĩro gĩake,
If there is found in the midst of you, within any of your gates which Jehovah your God gives you, man or woman, who does that which is evil in the sight of Jehovah your God, in transgressing his covenant,
3 na agakararia rĩathani rĩakwa akahooya ngai ingĩ, na agaciinamĩrĩra kana akainamĩrĩra riũa, kana mweri, kana njata cia matu-inĩ,
and has gone and served other gods, and worshiped them, or the sun, or the moon, or any of the host of heaven, which I have not commanded;
4 na mũmenyithio ũhoro ũcio-rĩ, hĩndĩ ĩyo no nginya mũgaatuĩria ũhoro ũcio wega. Kũngĩkorwo ũhoro ũcio nĩ wa ma, na hakorwo na ũira atĩ ũndũ ũcio ũrĩ thaahu nĩwĩkĩtwo thĩinĩ wa Isiraeli,
and it be told you, and you have heard of it, then you shall inquire diligently; and look, if it be true, and the thing certain, that such abomination is done in Israel,
5 oyai mũndũ mũrũme kana mũndũ-wa-nja ũcio wĩkĩte ũndũ ũcio mũũru mũmũtware kĩhingo-inĩ gĩa itũũra rĩanyu inene na inyuĩ mũmũhũre na mahiga nyuguto nginya akue.
then you shall bring forth that man or that woman, who has done this evil thing, to your gates, even the man or the woman; and you shall stone them to death with stones.
6 Na ũndũ wa ũira wa andũ eerĩ kana atatũ, mũndũ no oragwo, no gũtirĩ mũndũ ũkooragwo na ũndũ wa ũira wa mũndũ ũmwe.
At the mouth of two witnesses, or three witnesses, shall he who is to die be put to death; at the mouth of one witness he shall not be put to death.
7 Moko ma aira acio no nginya makorwo marĩ ma mbere ũhoro-inĩ ũcio wa kũmũũraga, na thuutha ũcio marũmĩrĩrwo nĩ moko ma andũ arĩa angĩ othe. No nginya mũniine ũũru ũcio wehere gatagatĩ-inĩ kanyu.
The hand of the witnesses shall be first on him to put him to death, and afterward the hand of all the people. So you shall put away the evil from the midst of you.
8 Kũngĩkaagĩa maciira magooti-inĩ manyu mũtangĩhota gũtua, marĩ ma ũiti wa thakame, o na ma gũtuithania mũndũ na mũndũ ũrĩa ũngĩ, kana mũndũ ũhũũrĩte ũrĩa ũngĩ, matwaragei handũ harĩa Jehova Ngai wanyu agaathuura.
If there arises a matter too hard for you in judgment, between blood and blood, between plea and plea, and between stroke and stroke, being matters of controversy within your gates; then you shall arise, and go up to the place which Jehovah your God shall choose;
9 Thiĩi kũrĩ Alawii arĩa athĩnjĩri-Ngai, na kũrĩ mũtuithania ciira ũrĩa ũrĩ wĩra-inĩ ihinda rĩu. Mũmoorie ũhoro ũcio nao mamuonie ũrĩa ciira ũcio wagĩrĩire gũtuuo.
and you shall come to the priests the Levites, and to the judge who shall be in those days: and you shall inquire; and they shall show you the sentence of judgment.
10 No nginya mwĩke kũringana na matua marĩa makaamũhe mũrĩ handũ hau Jehova agaathuura. Menyagĩrĩrai mwĩkage ũrĩa wothe marĩmwathaga mwĩke.
You shall do according to the tenor of the sentence which they shall show you from that place which Jehovah shall choose; and you shall observe to do according to all that they shall teach you:
11 Ĩkagai kũringana na watho ũrĩa mamũrutĩte, na mũrũmĩrĩre matua mao marĩa mekũmũhe. Mũtikanehũgũre mwena wa ũrĩo kana wa ũmotho, mũtigane na ũrĩa mamwĩrĩte.
according to the tenor of the law which they shall teach you, and according to the judgment which they shall tell you, you shall do; you shall not turn aside from the sentence which they shall show you, to the right hand, nor to the left.
12 Mũndũ ũrĩa ũngĩonania kũnyarara mũtuithania ciira kana mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai, ũrĩa ũrũgamaga agĩtungatĩra Jehova Ngai wanyu, no nginya ooragwo. No nginya mũniine ũũru ũcio wehere Isiraeli.
The man who does presumptuously, in not listening to the priest who stands to minister there before Jehovah your God, or to the judge, even that man shall die: and you shall put away the evil from Israel.
13 Andũ othe nĩmakaigua ũhoro ũcio nao metigĩre, na matigacooka gũkorwo marĩ na kĩnyararo rĩngĩ.
All the people shall hear, and fear, and do no more presumptuously.
14 Rĩrĩa mũgaathiĩ bũrũri ũrĩa Jehova Ngai wanyu ekũmũhe, na mũkorwo mũwĩgwatĩire na mũgaatũũra kuo, na muuge atĩrĩ, “Rekei tũgĩe na mũthamaki witũ ta ndũrĩrĩ iria ciothe itũthiũrũrũkĩirie,”
When you have come to the land which Jehovah your God gives you, and shall possess it, and shall dwell in it, and shall say, "I will set a king over me, like all the nations that are around me";
15 Menyererai wega mũgaathuura mũthamaki ũrĩa Jehova Ngai wanyu amwamũrĩire. No nginya akoima gatagatĩ-inĩ ka ariũ a ithe wanyu. Mũtigathuure mũndũ wa kũngĩ atuĩke mũthamaki wanyu, mũndũ ũtarĩ mũrũ wa thoguo Mũisiraeli.
you shall surely set him king over yourselves, whom Jehovah your God shall choose: one from among your brothers you shall set king over you; you may not put a foreigner over you, who is not your brother.
16 Mũthamaki ũcio, o nake ndakaneingĩhĩrie mbarathi, kana atũme andũ macooke bũrũri wa Misiri makamũgĩĩrĩre ingĩ, nĩgũkorwo Jehova amwĩrĩte atĩrĩ, “Mũtikanacooke na thuutha, mũgere njĩra ĩyo rĩngĩ.”
Only he shall not multiply horses to himself, nor cause the people to return to Egypt, to the end that he may multiply horses; because Jehovah has said to you, "You shall not go back that way again."
17 Nake ndakanahikie atumia aingĩ, nĩguo ngoro yake ndĩkanagarũrũke. Ningĩ ndakaneingĩhĩrie betha na thahabu.
Neither shall he multiply wives to himself, that his heart not turn away: neither shall he greatly multiply to himself silver and gold.
18 Rĩrĩa agaikarĩra gĩtĩ gĩake kĩa ũthamaki, akoya ibuku rĩa gĩkũnjo, eyandĩkĩre watho ũyũ, aũrutĩte ibuku-inĩ rĩrĩa riumĩte harĩ athĩnjĩri-Ngai, arĩ o Alawii.
It shall be, when he sits on the throne of his kingdom, that he shall write him a copy of this law on a scroll in the presence of the Levitical priests.
19 Narĩo ibuku rĩu nĩaikarage narĩo, arĩthomage matukũ marĩa mothe egũtũũra muoyo nĩguo erutage gwĩtigĩra Jehova Ngai, na arũmagĩrĩre wega ciugo ciothe cia watho ũyũ na irĩra cia watho wa kũrũmagĩrĩrwo,
And it shall be with him, and he shall read it all the days of his life; that he may learn to fear Jehovah his God, to keep all the words of this law and these statutes, to do them;
20 na ndagetuage mwega gũkĩra ariũ a ithe agarũrũke mwena wa ũrĩo kana wa ũmotho atigane na watho. Hĩndĩ ĩyo, we na njiaro ciake nĩmagathamaka ihinda iraaya ũthamaki-inĩ wake kũu Isiraeli.
that his heart not be lifted up above his brothers, and that he not turn aside from the commandment, to the right hand, or to the left: to the end that he may prolong his days in his kingdom, he and his children, in the midst of Israel.
