Gũcookerithia 7
1 Rĩrĩa Jehova Ngai waku agaagũkinyia bũrũri ũrĩa ũratoonya ũkawĩgwatĩre na aingate ndũrĩrĩ nyingĩ ikweherere, nacio nĩ Ahiti, na Agirigashi, na Aamori, na Akaanani, na Aperizi, na Ahivi na Ajebusi, ndũrĩrĩ mũgwanja nene na irĩ hinya gũgũkĩra-rĩ,
When the Lord thy God shall have brought thee into the land, which thou art going in to possess, and shall have destroyed many nations before thee, the Hethite, and the Gergezite, and the Amorrhite, and the Chanaanite, and the Pherezite, and the Hevite, and the Jebusite, seven nations much more numerous than thou art, and stronger than thou:
2 na rĩrĩa Jehova Ngai waku agaacineana kũrĩ we nawe ũkorwo ũcitooretie, hĩndĩ ĩyo no nginya ũgaciniina biũ. Ndũkanagĩe na kĩrĩkanĩro nacio na ndũkanaciiguĩre tha.
And the Lord thy God shall have delivered them to thee, thou shalt utterly destroy them. Thou shalt make no league with them, nor shew mercy to them:
3 Mũtikanagũrane nacio. Mũtikanaheane airĩtu anyu kũrĩ aanake ao kana aanake anyu mahikie airĩtu ao,
Neither shalt thou make marriages with them. Thou shalt not give thy daughter to his son, nor take his daughter for thy son:
4 nĩgũkorwo nĩmakagarũra aanake anyu matige gũcooka kũnũmĩrĩra, na matuĩke a gũtungatĩra ngai ingĩ, namo marakara ma Jehova nĩmakamũũkĩrĩra, mamũcine na mamũniine o narua.
For she will turn away thy son from following me, that he may rather serve strange gods, and the wrath of the Lord will be kindled, and will quickly destroy thee.
5 Ũũ nĩguo mũkaameeka: Mũkoinanga igongona ciao, na mũharaganie mahiga ma igongona ciao, na mũtemange itugĩ ciao cia Ashera, o na mũcine mĩhianano yao na mwaki.
But thus rather shall you deal with them: Destroy their altars, and break their statues, and cut down their groves, and burn their graven things.
6 Nĩgũkorwo inyuĩ mũrĩ rũrĩrĩ rwamũrĩirwo Jehova Ngai wanyu. Jehova Ngai wanyu aamũthurire kuuma ndũrĩrĩ-inĩ ciothe cia thĩ mũtuĩke rũrĩrĩ rwake, rũrĩrĩ rũrĩ bata mũno harĩ we.
Because thou art a holy people to the Lord thy God. The Lord thy God hath chosen thee, to be his peculiar people of all peoples that are upon the earth.
7 Jehova ndaamwendire na akĩmũthuura tondũ mwarĩ aingĩ gũkĩra ndũrĩrĩ iria ingĩ, nĩgũkorwo nĩ inyuĩ mwarĩ anini mũno gũkĩra andũ arĩa angĩ othe.
Not because you surpass all nations in number, is the Lord joined unto you, and hath chosen you, for you are the fewest of any people:
8 No nĩ ũndũ wa Jehova kũmwenda na kũmenyerera mwĩhĩtwa ũrĩa eehĩtĩire maithe manyu ma tene, nĩkĩo aamũrutire na guoko gwake kũrĩ hinya, na akĩmũkũũra akĩmũruta bũrũri wa ũkombo, kuuma hinya-inĩ wa Firaũni mũthamaki wa bũrũri wa Misiri.
But because the Lord hath loved you, and hath kept his oath, which he swore to your fathers: and hath brought you out with a strong hand, and redeemed you from the house of bondage, out of the hand of Pharao the king of Egypt.
9 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio kĩmenyei atĩ Jehova Ngai wanyu nĩwe Ngai; o we Mũrungu ũrĩa mwĩhokeku, ũmenyagĩrĩra kĩrĩkanĩro gĩake kĩa wendo kũrĩ njiaro ngiri cia andũ arĩa mamwendete, na makamenyerera maathani make.
And thou shalt know that the Lord thy God, he is a strong and faithful God, keeping his covenant and mercy to them that love him, and to them that keep his commandments, unto a thousand generations:
10 No rĩrĩ, arĩa mamũthũire nĩakerĩhĩria na njĩra ya kũmaniina biũ makĩonaga; ndakagĩa thieya kwĩrĩhĩria harĩ andũ arĩa mamũthũire, makĩonaga.
And repaying forthwith them that hate him, so as to destroy them, without further delay immediately rendering to them what they deserve.
11 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, mwĩmenyererei mũrũmagĩrĩre maathani na kĩrĩra kĩa watho wake wa kũrũmĩrĩrwo, na mawatho marĩa ngũmũhe ũmũthĩ.
Keep therefore the precepts and ceremonies and judgments, which I command thee this day to do.
12 Mũngĩrũmbũiya mawatho macio na mũmamenyerere mũmarũmĩrĩre, nake Jehova Ngai wanyu nĩarĩigaga kĩrĩkanĩro gĩake kĩa wendo na inyuĩ, o ta ũrĩa eehĩtire mbere ya maithe manyu.
If after thou hast heard these judgments, thou keep and do them, the Lord thy God will also keep his covenant to thee, and the mercy which he swore to thy fathers:
13 Nĩarĩmwendaga na amũrathimage na atũmage mũingĩhage. Nĩarĩrathimaga maciaro ma nda cianyu, na maciaro ma mĩgũnda yanyu, marĩ ma ngano, na ma ndibei ya mũhihano, na ma maguta, na ma njaũ cia ndũũru cianyu na ma tũtũrũme twa ndũũru cia ngʼondu cianyu kũu bũrũri-inĩ ũrĩa eehĩtire harĩ maithe manyu atĩ nĩakamũhe.
And he will love thee and multiply thee, and will bless the fruit of thy womb, and the fruit of thy land, thy corn, and thy vintage, thy oil, and thy herds, and the flocks of thy sheep upon the land, for which he swore to thy fathers that he would give it thee.
14 Inyuĩ nĩmũkarathimwo gũkĩra rũrĩrĩ rũngĩ o ruothe; gũtirĩ mũndũ mũrũme kana mũndũ-wa-nja wanyu ũkaaga mwana, o na kana ũhiũ wanyu o wothe wage gũciara.
Blessed shalt thou be among all people. No one shall be barren among you of either sex, neither of men nor cattle.
15 Jehova nĩakamũgitĩra kuuma kũrĩ mĩrimũ yothe. Ndakamũrehithĩria mĩrimũ mĩũru ta ĩrĩa muoĩ rĩrĩa mwarĩ kũu bũrũri wa Misiri, no rĩrĩ, nĩakamĩrehithĩria andũ arĩa othe mamũthũire.
The Lord will take away from thee all sickness: and the grievous infirmities of Egypt, which thou knowest, he will not bring upon thee, but upon thy enemies.
16 No nginya mũkaaniina ndũrĩrĩ ciothe iria Jehova akaarekereria acineane kũrĩ inyuĩ; mũtikanaciguĩre tha kana mũtungatĩre ngai ciacio, nĩgũkorwo ũndũ ũcio no ũtuĩke mũtego kũrĩ inyuĩ.
Thou shalt consume all the people, which the Lord thy God will deliver to thee. Thy eye shall not spare them, neither shalt thou serve their gods, lest they be thy ruin.
17 Mwahota kwĩĩra atĩrĩ, “Ndũrĩrĩ ici irĩ na hinya gũtũkĩra. Tũngĩhota atĩa gũciingata?”
If thou say in thy heart: These nations are more than I, how shall I be able to destroy them?
18 No mũtikanaciĩtigĩre; ririkanagai wega ũrĩa Jehova Ngai wanyu eekire Firaũni, o na ũrĩa eekire bũrũri wa Misiri guothe.
Fear not, but remember what the Lord thy God did to Pharao and to all the Egyptians,
19 Nĩmweyoneire na maitho manyu maũndũ manene marĩa andũ acio maageririo namo, o na ciama iria ciaringirwo, na maũndũ ma kũgegania marĩa meekirwo; ningĩ mũririkane ũrĩa Jehova Ngai wanyu aamũrutire bũrũri wa Misiri na guoko kwa hinya na gũtambũrũkĩtio. Ũguo noguo Jehova Ngai wanyu ageeka ndũrĩrĩ icio ciothe mũretigĩra rĩu.
The exceeding great plagues, which thy eyes saw, and the signs and wonders, and the strong hand, and the stretched out arm, with which the Lord thy God brought thee out: so will he do to all the people, whom thou fearest.
20 O na ningĩ, Jehova Ngai wanyu nĩagatũma magi ma mboora gatagatĩ ga cio, nginya o na matigari ma cio marĩa makaamwĩhitha makorwo mathirĩte.
Moreover the Lord thy God will send also hornets among them, until he destroy and consume all that have escaped thee, and could hide themselves.
21 Mũtikamakio nĩcio, nĩgũkorwo Jehova Ngai wanyu, ũrĩa ũrĩ hamwe na inyuĩ, nĩ Mũrungu mũnene na wa gwĩtigĩrwo.
Thou shalt not fear them, because the Lord thy God is in the midst of thee, a God mighty and terrible:
22 Jehova Ngai wanyu nĩakarutũrũra ndũrĩrĩ icio ciehere mbere yanyu hanini o hanini. Mũtigetĩkĩrio mũciniine o rĩmwe, nĩguo nyamũ cia gĩthaka itikamũingĩhĩre imũrigiicĩrie.
He will consume these nations in thy sight by little and little and by degrees. Thou wilt not be able to destroy them altogether: lest perhaps the beasts of the earth should increase upon thee.
23 No Jehova Ngai wanyu nĩakaneana ndũrĩrĩ icio kũrĩ inyuĩ, atũme igĩe na kĩrigiicano kĩnene o nginya iniinwo.
But the Lord thy God shall deliver them in thy sight: and shall slay them until they be utterly destroyed.
24 Athamaki ao nĩakamaneana moko-inĩ manyu, na inyuĩ nĩmũkaniina marĩĩtwa mao biũ mehere gũkũ thĩ mũhuro wa riũa. Gũtirĩ mũndũ ũkaahota kũmwĩtiiria; nĩ mũkaamaniina.
And he shall deliver their kings into thy hands, and thou shalt destroy their names from under Heaven: no man shall be able to resist thee, until thou destroy them.
25 Mĩhiano ya ngai ciao nĩmũkamĩcina na mwaki. Mũtikanacumĩkĩre betha na thahabu iria ciĩkĩrĩtwo igũrũ rĩayo, kana mũmĩoe ĩtuĩke yanyu, mũtikaguucĩrĩrio nĩyo mũheeneke, nĩgũkorwo nĩĩrĩ magigi kũrĩ Jehova Ngai wanyu.
Their graven things thou shalt burn with fire: thou shalt not covet the silver and gold of which they are made, neither shalt thou take to thee any thing thereof, lest thou offend, because it is an abomination to the Lord thy God.
26 Ndũkanarehe kĩndũ kĩrĩ thaahu nyũmba-inĩ yaku, nĩgeetha ndũkaamũrwo hamwe na kĩndũ kĩu mũniinwo. Kĩrege biũ na ũgĩthũũre, nĩgũkorwo nĩgĩtuĩtwo gĩa kũniinwo.
Neither shalt thou bring any thing of the idol into thy house, lest thou become an anathema, like it. Thou shalt detest it as dung, and shalt utterly abhor it as uncleanness and filth, because it is an anathema.
