Gũcookerithia 18
1 Athĩnjĩri-Ngai, arĩa Alawii, hamwe na mũhĩrĩga ũcio wothe wa Lawi, matikagĩa na gĩthaka kana igai hamwe na andũ a Isiraeli arĩa angĩ. Magaatũũragio nĩ indo iria irutĩirwo Jehova cia igongona rĩa njino, nĩgũkorwo rĩu nĩrĩo igai rĩao.
The priests, the Levites, even the whole tribe of Levi, shall have no part nor inheritance with Israel; the burnt offerings of the Lord [are] their inheritance, they shall eat them.
2 Matikagaya igai gatagatĩ ka ariũ a ithe wao; nĩgũkorwo Jehova nĩwe igai rĩao, o ta ũrĩa aamerĩire.
And they shall have no inheritance among their brethren; the Lord himself [is] his portion, as he said to him.
3 Indo ici nĩcio athĩnjĩri-Ngai magĩrĩirwo nĩ kũheagwo ciumĩte kũrĩ andũ arĩa marĩrutaga igongona rĩa ndegwa kana rĩa ngʼondu: nĩ guoko, na thĩĩa cierĩ, na nyama cia nda.
And this [is] the due of the priests in the things coming from the people from those who offer sacrifices, whether it be a calf or a sheep; and you shall give the shoulder to the priest, and the cheeks, and the great intestine:
4 No nginya mũmaheage maciaro ma mbere ma ngano yanyu, na ma ndibei yanyu ya mũhihano, na maguta, o na guoya wa mbere wa ngʼondu cianyu cienjwo,
and the first fruits of your corn, and of your wine, and of your oil; and you shall give to him the first fruits of the fleeces of your sheep:
5 nĩgũkorwo Jehova Ngai wanyu nĩamathuurĩte hamwe na njiaro ciao kuuma harĩ mĩhĩrĩga yanyu yothe, nĩgeetha marũgamage magatungataga thĩinĩ wa Rĩĩtwa rĩa Jehova hĩndĩ ciothe.
because the Lord has chosen him out of all your tribes, to stand before the Lord your God, to minister and bless in his name, himself and his sons among the children of Israel.
6 Mũlawii angĩthaama, oime kũrĩa atũũraga itũũra-inĩ rĩmwe rĩa matũũra manyu thĩinĩ wa Isiraeli, na oke endete mũno gũkinya handũ harĩa Jehova agaathuura-rĩ,
And if a Levite come from one of the cities of all the children of Israel, where he himself dwells, accordingly as his mind desires, to the place which he shall have chosen,
7 no atungate thĩinĩ wa rĩĩtwa rĩa Jehova Ngai wake, o ta Alawii arĩa angĩ arĩa matungataga hau mbere ya Jehova.
he shall minister to the name of the Lord his God, as all his brethren the Levites, who stand there present before the Lord your God.
8 Nake akaagaĩrwo indo ciiganaine na cia arĩa angĩ, o na gũtuĩka nĩamũkĩrĩte mbeeca ciumanĩte na kwendia indo cia nyũmba yao.
He shall eat an allotted portion, besides the sale of his hereditary property.
9 Rĩrĩa mũgaathiĩ bũrũri ũrĩa Jehova Ngai wanyu ekũmũhe, mũtikanerute maũndũ ma kwĩgerekania na mĩthiĩre ĩrĩa ĩrĩ magigi ya ndũrĩrĩ iria irĩ kuo.
And when you shall have entered into the land which the Lord your God gives you, you shall not learn to do according to the abominations of those nations.
10 Rekei gũtikanoneke mũndũ thĩinĩ wanyu ũkũruta igongona rĩa gũcina mũriũ kana mwarĩ, kana ũkũragũra, kana ũkũrogana, kana mũtuĩria wa nyoni ya mũndũ, kana mũndũ-mũgo,
There shall not be found in you one who purges his son or his daughter with fire, one who uses divination, who deals with omens, and augury,
11 kana mũrogani wa ithitũ, kana mũndũ ũrĩ na maroho ma kũragũra, kana mũrogi, o na kana mũndũ ũkaragũra na maroho ma andũ akuũ.
a sorcerer employing incantation, one who has in him a divining spirit, and observer of signs, questioning the dead.
12 Mũndũ ũrĩa wĩkaga maũndũ macio nĩonagwo arĩ magigi nĩ Jehova, na nĩ ũndũ wa maũndũ macio marĩ magigi, nĩkĩo Jehova Ngai wanyu ekũrutũrũra ndũrĩrĩ icio ciehere mbere yanyu.
For every one that does these things is an abomination to the Lord your God; for because of these abominations the Lord will destroy them from before your face.
13 Inyuĩ no nginya mũtuĩke andũ matarĩ ũcuuke mbere ya Jehova Ngai wanyu.
You shall be perfect before the Lord your God.
14 Ndũrĩrĩ iria mũgaatunya bũrũri-rĩ, nĩithikagĩrĩria arogi na andũ arĩa maragũraga. No inyuĩ, Jehova Ngai wanyu ndamwĩtĩkĩrĩtie gwĩka ũguo.
For all these nations whose [land] you shall inherit, they will listen to omens and divinations; but the Lord your God has not permitted you so [to do].
15 Jehova Ngai wanyu nĩakamũtũmĩra mũnabii o ta niĩ kuuma harĩ ariũ a thoguo. No nginya mũmũiguage.
The Lord your God shall raise up to you a prophet of your brethren, like me; him shall you hear:
16 Nĩgũkorwo ũguo nĩguo mworirie Jehova Ngai wanyu mũrĩ kũu Horebu mũthenya ũrĩa muonganĩte, rĩrĩa mwoigire atĩrĩ, “Ndũkareke tũigue mũgambo wa Jehova Ngai witũ, kana tuone mwaki ũcio mũnene rĩngĩ, nĩgeetha tũtigakue.”
according to all things which you did desire of the Lord your God in Choreb in the day of the assembly, saying, We will not again hear the voice of the Lord your God, and we will not any more see this great fire, and [so] we shall not die.
17 Jehova aanjĩĩrire atĩrĩ: “Ũguo moiga nĩ wega.
And the Lord said to me, They have spoken rightly all that they have said to you.
18 Nĩngamarahũrĩra mũnabii o tawe oime thĩinĩ wa ariũ a ithe wao; na nĩngekĩra ciugo ciakwa kanua gake, nake nĩakameera ũrĩa wothe ngaamwatha.
I will raise up to them a prophet of their brethren, like you; and I will put my words in his mouth, and he shall speak to them as I shall command him.
19 Mũndũ o wothe ũkaarega kũigua ciugo ciakwa iria mũnabii ũcio akaaria thĩinĩ wa rĩĩtwa rĩakwa-rĩ, niĩ mwene nĩ niĩ ngamũũria ũhoro ũcio.
And whatever man shall not listen to whatever words that prophet shall speak in my name, I will take vengeance on him.
20 No rĩrĩ, mũnabii ũrĩa ũkaaria ũndũ o na ũrĩkũ na mwĩgerero akĩgwetaga rĩĩtwa rĩakwa, oige ũndũ itamwathĩte, kana mũnabii ũrĩa ũkaaria akĩgwetaga rĩĩtwa rĩa ngai ingĩ, no nginya akooragwo.”
But the prophet whoever shall impiously speak in my name a word which I have not commanded him to speak, and whoever shall speak in the name of other gods, that prophet shall die.
21 Mwahota kwĩyũria atĩrĩ, “Tũngĩkĩmenya atĩa rĩrĩa ndũmĩrĩri ĩtaarĩtio nĩ Jehova?”
But if you shall say in your heart, How shall we know the word which the Lord has not spoken?
22 Ũndũ ũrĩa mũnabii angĩaria rĩĩtwa-inĩ rĩa Jehova, naguo ũndũ ũcio wage kuoneka kana kũhinga, ĩyo nĩ ndũmĩrĩri ĩtaarĩtio nĩ Jehova. Mũnabii ũcio aarĩtie na mwĩgerero. Mũtikanamwĩtigĩre.
Whatsoever words that prophet shall speak in the name of the Lord, and they shall not come true, and not come to pass, this [is] the thing which the Lord has not spoken; that prophet has spoken wickedly: you shall not spare him.
