< Gũcookerithia 32 >

1 Ta thikĩrĩria, wee igũrũ, ngũhe ũhoro; o na we thĩ-rĩ, ta igua ciugo cia kanua gakwa.
Attend, O heaven, and I will speak; and let the earth hear the words out of my mouth.
2 Reke ũrutani wakwa uure ta mbura, nacio ciugo ciakwa igwe ta ime, ituĩke ta rũthuthuũ rũkiurĩra nyeki ya mũmerano, o na ĩtuĩke ta mbura nyingĩ ĩkiurĩra mĩmera mĩĩthĩ.
Let my speech be looked for as the rain, and my words come down as dew, as the shower upon the herbage, and as snow upon the grass.
3 Nĩngũhunjia ũhoro wa Rĩĩtwa rĩa Jehova. Hĩ, kĩgoocei ũnene wa Ngai witũ!
For I have called on the name of the Lord: assign you greatness to our God.
4 We nĩwe Rwaro rwa Ihiga, mawĩra make nĩ makinyanĩru, nacio njĩra ciake ciothe nĩ cia kĩhooto. Nĩ Ngai mwĩhokeku na ndahĩtagia, nĩ mũrũngĩrĩru, na nĩ wa kĩhooto.
[As for God], his works [are] true, and all his ways [are] judgment: God [is] faithful, and there is no unrighteousness [in him]; just and holy [is] the Lord.
5 Nĩmethaahĩtie harĩ we; ũndũ wa thoni nĩ atĩ ti ciana ciake rĩngĩ, no nĩ rũciaro rũremi na rwaganu.
They have sinned, not [pleasing] him; spotted children, a froward and perverse generation.
6 Ũũ nĩguo mũngĩrĩha wega wa Jehova, inyuĩ andũ aya akĩĩgu na mwagĩte ũũgĩ? Githĩ tiwe Ithe wanyu, o we Mũmbi wanyu, ũrĩa wamũmbire na agĩtũma mwĩhaande wega?
Do you thus recompense the Lord? [is the] people thus foolish and unwise? did not he himself your father purchase you, and make you, and form you?
7 Ririkana matukũ ma tene; wĩciirie ũhoro wa njiaro iria ihĩtũkĩte. Ũria thoguo na nĩegũkwĩra, O na athuuri anyu na nĩmegũgũtaarĩria.
Remember the days of old, consider the years for past ages: ask your father, and he shall relate to you, your elders, and they shall tell you.
8 Rĩrĩa Ũrĩa-ũrĩ-Igũrũ-Mũno aaheire ndũrĩrĩ igai rĩacio, rĩrĩa aagayanirie iruka ciothe cia andũ, nĩekĩrĩire andũ othe mĩhaka, kũringana na mũigana wa ariũ a Isiraeli.
When the Most High divided the nations, when he separated the sons of Adam, he set the bounds of the nations according to the number of the angels of God.
9 Nĩ gũkorwo igai rĩa Jehova nĩ andũ ake, Jakubu nĩwe igai rĩake rĩrĩa eegaĩire.
And his people Jacob became the portion of the Lord, Israel was the line of his inheritance.
10 Aamuonire arĩ kũndũ werũ-inĩ, werũ ũtarĩ kĩndũ, ũgambagwo nĩ nyamũ. Nake akĩmũgitĩra na akĩmũmenyerera; aamũrangagĩra o ta kĩũma kĩa riitho rĩake,
He maintained him in the wilderness, in burning thirst and a dry land: he led him about and instructed him, and kept him as the apple of an eye.
11 o ta ũrĩa nderi yarahũraga tũcui twayo gĩtara-inĩ kĩayo, ĩkareera igũrũ rĩa tũcui twayo, ĩtambũrũkĩtie mathagu mayo nĩguo ituoe, na ĩgatũkuua mathagu-inĩ mayo.
As an eagle would watch over his brood, and yearns over his young, receives them having spread his wings, and takes them up on his back:
12 Jehova o we wiki nĩwe wamũtongoririe; gũtiarĩ ngai ngʼeni yarĩ hamwe nake.
the Lord alone led them, there was no strange god with them.
13 Atũmire ahaice kũndũ kũrĩa gũtũũgĩru bũrũri-inĩ, na akĩmũhũũnia na matunda ma mĩgũnda. Nĩamũheire ũũkĩ uumĩte ihiga-inĩ, na akĩmũhe maguta moimĩte ihiga-inĩ rĩa nyaigĩ;
He brought them up on the strength of the land; he fed them with the fruits of the fields; they sucked honey out of the rock, and oil out of the solid rock.
14 akĩmũhe ngorono na iria kuuma ndũũru-inĩ cia ngʼombe, na cia mbũri na tũtũrũme tũnoru. o na mbũri na ndũrũme iria njega mũno cia Bashani, na ngano ĩrĩa njega mũno. Nĩwanyuire thakame ĩrĩ mũhũyũ ya thabibũ, nĩyo ndibei yacio.
Butter of cows, and milk of sheep, with the fat of lambs and rams, of calves and kids, with fat of kidneys of wheat; and he drank wine, the blood of the grape.
15 Jeshuruni nake aanorire, agĩikia haati; aahũũnire, agĩtunguha, na agĩkenga mwĩrĩ. Agĩgĩtigana na Ngai ũrĩa wamũmbire, na akĩrega Rwaro rwa Ihiga, o ruo Mũhonokia wake.
So Jacob ate and was filled, and the beloved one kicked; he grew fat, he became thick and broad: then he forsook the God that made him, and departed from God his Saviour.
16 Nĩmatũmire aigue ũiru nĩ ũndũ wa ngai icio ciao ngʼeni, na makĩmũrakaria na mĩhianano yao ĩrĩ magigi.
They provoked me to anger with strange gods; with their abominations they bitterly angered me.
17 Nĩmarutĩire ndaimono magongona, iria itarĩ Ngai: ngai iria matooĩ, ngai iria cieyumĩrĩtie o ica-ikuhĩ, ngai iria iteetigĩrĩtwo nĩ maithe manyu.
They sacrificed to devils, and not to God; to gods whom they knew not: new and fresh [gods] came in, whom their fathers knew not.
18 Nĩwatiganĩirie Rwaro rwa Ihiga, rũrĩa rwagũciarire; ũkĩriganĩrwo nĩ Mũrungu ũrĩa wagũciarire.
You have forsaken God that begot you, and forgotten God who feeds you.
19 Jehova nĩonire ũndũ ũcio nake akĩmarega nĩ ũndũ nĩarakarĩtio nĩ ariũ ake na airĩtu ake.
And the Lord saw, and was jealous; and was provoked by the anger of his sons and daughters,
20 Nake akiuga atĩrĩ, “Nĩngũmahitha ũthiũ wakwa, nyone ũrĩa marigĩrĩrio mao magaakorwo matariĩ; nĩgũkorwo nĩ rũciaro rũremi, ciana itaangĩĩhokeka.
and said, I will turn away my face from them, and will show what shall happen to them in the last days; for it is a perverse generation, sons in whom is no faith.
21 Manjiguithirie ũiru nĩ ũndũ wa ngai itarĩ bata, na makĩndakaria na ngai ciao itarĩ kĩene. Ngaamaiguithia ũiru na rũrĩrĩ hatarĩ; ngaatũma marakario nĩ rũrĩrĩ rũtarĩ na ũmenyo.
They have provoked me to jealousy with [that which is] not God, they have exasperated me with their idols; and I will provoke them to jealousy with them that are no nation, I will anger them with a nation void of understanding.
22 Nĩ gũkorwo mwaki nĩwakĩtio nĩ mangʼũrĩ makwa, ũrĩa wakanaga ũgakinya mũhuro wa kwa ngoma. Nĩũkaniina thĩ na magetha mayo, na ũmundie itina cia irĩma mwaki. (Sheol h7585)
For a fire has been kindled out of my wrath, it shall burn to hell below; it shall devour the land, and the fruits of it; it shall set on fire the foundations of the mountains. (Sheol h7585)
23 “Nĩngamombĩrĩra mĩtino na mĩguĩ yakwa ndĩmĩhũthĩre ngĩmahũũra nayo.
I will gather evils upon them, and will fight with my weapons against them.
24 Nĩngamarehithĩria ngʼaragu ya kũmahinyaria, ndĩmarehithĩrie gĩthĩĩna gĩa kũmaniina na mũthiro wa kũmooraga; Ngaamarehithĩria nyamũ cia gĩthaka irĩ magego moogĩ, ndĩmarehithĩrie ũrũrũ wa nduĩra iria inyororokaga rũkũngũ-inĩ.
[They shall be] consumed with hunger and the devouring of birds, and there shall be irremediable destruction: I will send forth against them the teeth of wild beasts, with the rage of [serpents] creeping on the ground.
25 Rũhiũ rwa njora nĩrũkaniina ciana ciao njĩra-inĩ ya itũũra; kĩmako gĩkaamaiyũra marĩ kwao mĩciĩ. Aanake na airĩtu nĩmagathira, o hamwe na ngenge, na andũ arĩa marĩ na mbuĩ.
Without, the sword shall bereave them of children, and terror [shall issue] out of the secret chambers; the young man shall perish with the virgin, the suckling with him who has grown old.
26 Ndoigire nĩngamaharagania, na tharie kũririkanwo kwao kuuma kũrĩ andũ,
I said, I will scatter them, and I will cause their memorial to cease from among men.
27 no nĩndetigĩrire kĩnyararo gĩa thũ, nĩguo mũmuku ndakaage gũtaũkĩrwo, oige atĩrĩ, ‘Guoko gwitũ nĩgũtooranĩtie; Jehova tiwe wĩkĩte ũũ wothe.’”
Were it not for the wrath of the enemy, lest they should live long, lest their enemies should combine against them; lest they should say, Our own high arm, and not the Lord, has done all these things.
28 Nĩ rũrĩrĩ rũteciiragia, matirĩ na gũkũũrana thĩinĩ wao.
It is a nation that has lost counsel, neither is there understanding in them.
29 Naarĩ korwo maarĩ oogĩ mahote kũmenya ũguo na makũũrane ũrĩa ũhoro wao wa kũrigĩrĩria ũgaakorwo ũtariĩ!
They had not sense to understand: let them reserve these things against the time to come.
30 Mũndũ ũmwe angĩhota atĩa gũtengʼeria andũ ngiri, kana andũ eerĩ matũme andũ ngiri ikũmi moore, tiga makorirwo meendetio nĩ Rwaro rwa Ihiga, tiga Jehova akorirwo amatiganĩirie?
How should one pursue a thousand, and two rout tens of thousands, if God had not sold them, and the Lord delivered them up?
31 Nĩ gũkorwo ihiga rĩao rĩtihaana ta Rwaro rwa Ihiga riitũ, o ta ũrĩa o na thũ ciitũ ciũĩ.
For their gods are not as our God, but our enemies [are] void of understanding.
32 Mũthabibũ wao uumĩte mũthabibũ-inĩ wa Sodomu, na ũkoima mĩgũnda-inĩ ya Gomora. Thabibũ ciayo ciyũrĩte thumu, nacio ikũmba ciacio ikarũra.
For their vine [is] of the vine of Sodom, and their vine-branch of Gomorrha: their grape [is] a grape of gall, their cluster [is] one of bitterness.
33 Ndibei yacio nĩ ũrũrũ wa nduĩra, o guo thumu ũrĩa mũũru mũno wa nduĩra.
Their wine [is] the rage of serpents, and the incurable rage of asps.
34 “Githĩ ndikoretwo njigĩte ũndũ ũyũ wega ngaikara ndĩũmenyereire mũthiithũ-inĩ wakwa?
Behold! are not these things stored up by me, and sealed among my treasures?
35 Kũrĩhanĩria nĩ gwakwa; nĩ niĩ ngaarĩhanĩria. Ihinda rĩakinya, kũgũrũ kwao nĩ gũgaatenderũka; mũthenya wao wa mwanangĩko ũrĩ hakuhĩ, naguo mũtino wao ũhiũhĩte ũmakore.”
In the day of vengeance I will recompense, whenever their foot shall be tripped up; for the day of their destruction [is] near to them, and the judgments at hand are close upon you.
36 Jehova nĩagaciirithia andũ ake, na aiguĩre ndungata ciake tha, rĩrĩa akoona nĩmathirĩtwo nĩ hinya, na gũtirĩ o na ũmwe wao ũtigarĩte, arĩ ngombo kana atarĩ ngombo.
For the Lord shall judge his people, and shall be comforted over his servants; for he saw that they were utterly weakened, and failed in the hostile invasion, and were become feeble:
37 Nake nĩ akoiga atĩrĩ, “Rĩu ngai ciao ikĩrĩ ha, ihiga rĩu meehithaga harĩ rĩo,
and the Lord said, Where are their gods on whom they trusted?
38 ngai iria ciarĩĩaga maguta ma magongona mao, na ikanyua ndibei ya indo iria ciarutagwo cia kũnyuuo? Reke cigĩũkĩre imũteithie! Reke imũhe kĩĩgitio!
the fat of whose sacrifices you ate, and you drank the wine of their drink-offerings? let them arise and help you, and be your protectors.
39 “Rĩu menyai atĩ niĩ mwene nĩ niĩ Ngai! Gũtirĩ ngai ũngĩ tiga niĩ. Nĩ niĩ njũraganaga na niĩ ndũũranagia muoyo, nĩndiihanĩtie na nĩngũhonia, na gũtirĩ o na ũmwe ũngĩhonokania kuuma guoko-inĩ gwakwa.
Behold, behold that I am [he], and there is no god beside me: I kill, and I will make to live: I will strike, and I will heal; and there is none who shall deliver out of my hands.
40 Nguoya guoko gwakwa na igũrũ njuge atĩrĩ: O ta ũrĩa ndũũraga muoyo nginya tene,
For I will lift up my hand to heaven, and swear by my right hand, and I will say, I live for ever.
41 rĩrĩa ngaanoora rũhiũ rwakwa rwa njora rũkahenia na ndĩrũnyiite na guoko gwakwa ngĩtua ciira, nĩngerĩhĩria kũrĩ thũ ciakwa, na ndĩĩrĩhĩrie kũrĩ arĩa maathũire.
For I will sharpen my sword like lightning, and my hand shall take hold of judgment; and I will render judgment to my enemies, and will recompense them that hate me.
42 Nĩngatũma mĩguĩ yakwa ĩnyue thakame ĩrĩĩo, Naruo rũhiũ rwakwa rwa njora rũrĩage nyama: ĩyo nĩ thakame ya arĩa moragĩtwo na arĩa matahĩtwo, na mĩtwe ya atongoria a thũ.”
I will make my weapons drunk with blood, and my sword shall devour flesh, [it shall glut itself] with the blood of the wounded, and from the captivity of the heads of [their] enemies that rule over them.
43 Inyuĩ ndũrĩrĩ, kenai hamwe na andũ ake, nĩgũkorwo nĩakarĩhanĩria thakame ya ndungata ciake; acirĩhĩrie harĩ thũ ciake, na ahoroherie bũrũri wake, o na andũ ake.
Rejoice, you heavens, with him, and let all the angels of God worship him; rejoice you Gentiles, with his people, and let all the sons of God strengthen themselves in him; for he will avenge the blood of his sons, and he will render vengeance, and recompense justice to his enemies, and will reward them that hate him; and the Lord shall purge the land of his people.
44 Musa nĩmookire na Joshua mũrũ wa Nuni, na makĩaria ciugo ciothe cia rwĩmbo rũrũ andũ makĩiguaga.
And Moses wrote this song in that day, and taught it to the children of Israel; and Moses went in and spoke all the words of this law in the ears of the people, he and Joshua the [son] of Naue.
45 Rĩrĩa Musa aarĩkirie kũhe andũ a Isiraeli ũhoro ũcio,
And Moses finished speaking to all Israel.
46 akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Ciugo ici ciothe ndaamwĩra ũmũthĩ itarĩ na itherũ, rekei ciikare ngoro-inĩ cianyu, nĩgeetha mũgaatha ciana cianyu gwathĩkĩra wega ciugo icio ciothe cia watho ũyũ.
And he said to them, Take heed with your heart to all these words, which I testify to you this day, which you shall command your sons, to observe and do all the words of this law.
47 To ciugo o ũguo harĩ inyuĩ, no nĩcio muoyo wanyu. Nĩigatũma mũtũũre matukũ maingĩ bũrũri ũrĩa mũraringa Rũũĩ rwa Jorodani mũkawĩgwatĩre.”
For this [is] no vain word to you; for it [is] your life, and because of this word you shall live long upon the land, into which you go over Jordan to inherit it.
48 Mũthenya o ro ũcio Jehova akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ,
And the Lord spoke to Moses in this day, saying,
49 “Ambata, ũkinye mwambato wa Abarimu o, kũu kĩrĩma kĩa Nebo bũrũri-inĩ wa Moabi, kũngʼethanĩra na Jeriko, wĩrorere Kaanani, bũrũri ũrĩa ndĩrahe andũ a Isiraeli ũtuĩke igai rĩao.
Go up to the mount Abarim, this mountain Nabau which is in the land of Moab over against Jericho, and behold the land of Chanaan, which I give to the sons of Israel:
50 Kĩrĩma kĩu ũkũhaica nĩkĩo ũgaakuĩra, nawe ũcookanĩrĩrio hamwe na andũ anyu, o ta ũrĩa mũrũ wa nyũkwa Harũni aakuĩrĩire kĩrĩma-inĩ kĩa Horu, nake agĩcookanĩrĩrio hamwe na andũ arĩa manakua.
and die in the mount whither you go up, and be added to your people; as Aaron your brother died in mount Or, and was added to his people.
51 Gĩtũmi kĩa ũguo nĩ tondũ inyuĩ eerĩ nĩmwagire kũnjĩtĩkia mũrĩ mbere ya andũ a Isiraeli o kũu maaĩ-inĩ ma Meriba Kadeshi werũ-inĩ wa Zini tondũ mũtiigana kũrũgamĩrĩra ũtheru wakwa harĩ andũ a Isiraeli.
Because you disobeyed my word among the children of Israel, at the waters of strife of Cades in the wilderness of Sin; because you sanctified me not among the sons of Israel.
52 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, nĩ ũkuona bũrũri ũcio ũrĩ o haraaya; no ndũgatoonya bũrũri ũcio ndĩrahe andũ a Isiraeli.”
You shall see the land before [you], but you shall not enter into it.
