Gũcookerithia 8
1 Maathani maya mothe ndĩramũhe ũmũthĩ ma kũrũmĩrĩra mamenyagĩrĩrei nĩgeetha mũtũũre, na mũingĩhe, na mũtoonye mwĩgwatĩre bũrũri ũrĩa Jehova erĩire maithe manyu ma tene na mwĩhĩtwa.
You shall observe to do all the commandments which I command you today, that you may live, and multiply, and go in and possess the land which Yahweh swore to your fathers.
2 Ririkanai ũrĩa Jehova Ngai wanyu aamũtongoririe njĩra-inĩ yothe kũu werũ-inĩ mĩaka ĩyo mĩrongo ĩna, akĩenda mwĩnyiihie na amũgerie nĩguo amenye maũndũ marĩa maarĩ ngoro-inĩ cianyu, kana hihi nĩmũkamenyagĩrĩra maathani make kana aca.
You shall remember all the way which Yahweh your God has led you these forty years in the wilderness, that he might humble you, to test you, to know what was in your heart, whether you would keep his commandments or not.
3 Nĩatũmire mwĩnyiihie, na akĩreka mũhũte agĩcooka akĩmũhũũnia na mana, marĩa mũtaamenyete kana makamenywo nĩ maithe manyu, nĩgeetha amũrute atĩ ti irio ciki ingĩtũũria mũndũ muoyo, no nĩ kiugo o gĩothe kĩrĩa kĩngiuma kanua ka Jehova.
He humbled you, allowed you to be hungry, and fed you with manna, which you didn’t know, neither did your fathers know, that he might teach you that man does not live by bread only, but man lives by every word that proceeds out of Yahweh’s mouth.
4 Nguo cianyu itiigana gũtuĩka kana magũrũ manyu makĩimba ihinda-inĩ rĩu rĩa mĩaka mĩrongo ĩna.
Your clothing didn’t grow old on you, neither did your foot swell, these forty years.
5 Kĩmenyei na ngoro cianyu atĩ o ta ũrĩa mũndũ ahũũraga mũriũ akĩmũrũnga, ũguo noguo Jehova Ngai wanyu amũhũũraga.
You shall consider in your heart that as a man disciplines his son, so Yahweh your God disciplines you.
6 Menyagĩrĩrai maathani ma Jehova Ngai wanyu, mũthiage na njĩra ciake na mũmwĩtigagĩre.
You shall keep the commandments of Yahweh your God, to walk in his ways, and to fear him.
7 Nĩgũkorwo Jehova Ngai wanyu aramũtwara bũrũri mwega mũno, bũrũri ũrĩ tũrũũĩ, na ũrĩ tũria twa maaĩ, na ithima cia maaĩ megũtherera kũu cianda-inĩ o na irĩma-inĩ;
For Yahweh your God brings you into a good land, a land of brooks of water, of springs, and underground water flowing into valleys and hills;
8 bũrũri ũrĩ na ngano na cairi, na ũrĩ na mĩthabibũ na mĩkũyũ, na mĩkomamanga, ningĩ nĩ bũrũri ũrĩ na maguta ma mĩtamaiyũ na ũũkĩ;
a land of wheat, barley, vines, fig trees, and pomegranates; a land of olive trees and honey;
9 nĩ bũrũri ũtakanyiihia irio, na inyuĩ mũtirĩ kĩndũ mũkaaga, bũrũri ũrĩa mahiga maguo arĩ igera, na no mwenje icango irĩma-inĩ ciaguo.
a land in which you shall eat bread without scarcity, you shall not lack anything in it; a land whose stones are iron, and out of whose hills you may dig copper.
10 Rĩrĩa mũkaarĩa mũhũũne, mũkaagooca Jehova Ngai wanyu nĩ ũndũ wa bũrũri ũcio mwega amũheete.
You shall eat and be full, and you shall bless Yahweh your God for the good land which he has given you.
11 Mwĩmenyagĩrĩrei mũtikanariganĩrwo nĩ Jehova Ngai wanyu, mwage kũmenyerera maathani make na mawatho make, na kĩrĩra kĩa watho wake wa kũrũmĩrĩrwo ũrĩa ndĩramũhe ũmũthĩ.
Beware lest you forget Yahweh your God, in not keeping his commandments, his ordinances, and his statutes, which I command you today;
12 Kwaga ũguo, mwarĩa mwahũũna, na mwaka nyũmba njega na mũcitũũre,
lest, when you have eaten and are full, and have built fine houses and lived in them;
13 na rĩrĩa ndũũru cianyu cia ngʼombe na cia mbũri ikaaneneha, nacio betha na thahabu ciongerereke, na indo ciothe iria mũrĩ nacio ikorwo ciongererekete mũno-rĩ,
and when your herds and your flocks multiply, and your silver and your gold is multiplied, and all that you have is multiplied;
14 hĩndĩ ĩyo ngoro cianyu nĩikaagĩa na mwĩtĩĩo, na nĩmũkariganĩrwo nĩ Jehova Ngai wanyu, o we ũrĩa wamũrutire bũrũri wa Misiri, akĩmũruta bũrũri wa ũkombo.
then your heart might be lifted up, and you forget Yahweh your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage;
15 Nĩamũtongoririe mũgĩtũĩkanĩria werũ ũcio mũnene na wa kũmakania, bũrũri ũcio mũngʼaru ũtarĩ maaĩ, na warĩ na nyoka njũru, o na tũngʼaurũ. Nĩamũrutĩire maaĩ ihiga-inĩ rĩa nyaigĩ.
who led you through the great and terrible wilderness, with venomous snakes and scorpions, and thirsty ground where there was no water; who poured water for you out of the rock of flint;
16 Nĩamũheire mana mũrĩĩre kũu werũ-inĩ, marĩa maithe manyu mataamenyete ũhoro wamo, nĩguo atũme mwĩnyiihie, na akĩmũgeria nĩgeetha thuutha-inĩ maũndũ manyu makaagĩrĩra.
who fed you in the wilderness with manna, which your fathers didn’t know, that he might humble you, and that he might prove you, to do you good at your latter end;
17 Mwahota gũkeĩĩra atĩrĩ, “Ũhoti witũ na hinya wa moko maitũ nĩcio ituoneire ũtonga ũyũ.”
and lest you say in your heart, “My power and the might of my hand has gotten me this wealth.”
18 No rĩrĩ, ririkanagai Jehova Ngai wanyu, nĩgũkorwo nĩwe ũmũheaga ũhoti wa kwĩgĩĩra na ũtonga, na nĩ ũndũ ũcio agakĩhingia kĩrĩkanĩro gĩake, kĩrĩa aarĩkanĩire na maithe manyu ma tene na mwĩhĩtwa, o ta ũrĩa gũtariĩ ũmũthĩ.
But you shall remember Yahweh your God, for it is he who gives you power to get wealth, that he may establish his covenant which he swore to your fathers, as it is today.
19 Mũngĩkariganĩrwo nĩ Jehova Ngai wanyu mũrũmĩrĩre ngai ingĩ, mũcihooe na mũciinamĩrĩre, ngũmumbũrĩra mũthenya wa ũmũthĩ atĩ ti-itherũ no mũkaaniinwo.
It shall be, if you shall forget Yahweh your God, and walk after other gods, and serve them and worship them, I testify against you today that you shall surely perish.
20 Mũkaaniinwo o ta ndũrĩrĩ iria Jehova aaniinire agĩcieheria mbere yanyu, nĩ ũndũ wa kwaga gwathĩkĩra Jehova Ngai wanyu.
As the nations that Yahweh makes to perish before you, so you shall perish, because you wouldn’t listen to Yahweh your God’s voice.
