Thaama 20
1 Nake Ngai akĩaria ciugo ici ciothe, akiuga atĩrĩ:
And Elohim spake all these words, saying,
2 “Nĩ niĩ Jehova Ngai waku, ũrĩa wakũrutire bũrũri wa Misiri, kuuma bũrũri wa ũkombo.
I am YHWH thy Elohim, which have brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.
3 “Ndũkanagĩe na ngai ingĩ tiga niĩ.
Thou shalt have no other elohim before me.
4 “Ndũkanethondekere mũhianano mũicũhie wa mũhianĩre wa kĩndũ o gĩothe kĩrĩ kũũrĩa igũrũ kana gũkũ thĩ, kana kĩrĩ maaĩ-inĩ marĩa marĩ mũhuro wa thĩ.
Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth:
5 Ndũkanacinamĩrĩre kana ũcihooe, nĩgũkorwo niĩ, Jehova Ngai waku, ndĩ Ngai ũrĩ ũiru, herithagia ciana nĩ ũndũ wa mehia ma maithe mao nginya rũciaro rwa gatatũ na rwa kana rwa andũ arĩa maathũire,
Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I YHWH thy Elohim am a jealous Elohim, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me;
6 no ngonania wendo kũrĩ njiarwa ngiri na ngiri cia andũ arĩa manyendete na magaathĩkĩra maathani makwa.
And shewing mercy unto thousands of them that love me, and keep my commandments.
7 “Ndũkanagwete rĩĩtwa rĩa Jehova Ngai waku na itherũ, nĩgũkorwo Jehova ndagatua atĩ mũndũ ndehĩtie ũrĩa ũgwetaga rĩĩtwa rĩake na itherũ.
Thou shalt not take the name of YHWH thy Elohim in vain; for YHWH will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain.
8 “Ririkanaga mũthenya wa Thabatũ ũwamũrage.
Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy.
9 Rutaga wĩra waku wothe mĩthenya ĩtandatũ,
Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work:
10 no mũthenya wa mũgwanja nĩ Thabatũ ya Jehova Ngai waku. Mũthenya ũcio ndũkanarute wĩra o na ũrĩkũ, wee mwene, kana mũrũ-guo, kana mwarĩ-guo, kana ndungata yaku ya mũndũ mũrũme, kana ya mũndũ-wa-nja, kana ũhiũ waku, kana mũgeni ũrĩ gwaku mũciĩ.
But the seventh day is the Sabbath of YHWH thy Elohim: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates:
11 Nĩgũkorwo Jehova ombire igũrũ na thĩ, na iria rĩrĩa inene na indo ciothe iria irĩ kuo, na mĩthenya ĩtandatũ, no akĩhurũka mũthenya wa mũgwanja. Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Jehova akĩrathima mũthenya ũcio wa Thabatũ, akĩwaamũra.
For in six days YHWH made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore YHWH blessed the Sabbath day, and hallowed it.
12 “Tĩĩa thoguo na nyũkwa, nĩgeetha ũtũũre matukũ maingĩ bũrũri ũrĩa Jehova Ngai waku egũkũhe.
Honour thy father and thy mother: that thy days may be long upon the land which YHWH thy Elohim giveth thee.
13 “Ndũkanoragane.
Thou shalt not kill.
14 “Ndũkanatharanie.
Thou shalt not commit adultery.
15 “Ndũkanaiye.
Thou shalt not steal.
16 “Ndũkanaigĩrĩre mũndũ ũrĩa ũngĩ kĩgeenyo.
Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbour.
17 “Ndũkanacumĩkĩre nyũmba ya mũndũ ũrĩa ũngĩ. Ndũkanacumĩkĩre mũtumia wa mũndũ ũngĩ, kana ũcumĩkĩre ndungata yake ya mũndũ mũrũme kana ya mũndũ-wa-nja, kana ndegwa yake kana ndigiri yake, o na kana kĩndũ gĩothe gĩake.”
Thou shalt not covet thy neighbour's house, thou shalt not covet thy neighbour's wife, nor his manservant, nor his maidservant, nor his ox, nor his ass, nor any thing that is thy neighbour's.
18 Rĩrĩa andũ maiguire marurumĩ, na makĩona rũheni, na makĩigua coro ũkĩgamba, na makĩona kĩrĩma gĩgĩtoga ndogo, makĩinaina nĩ guoya. Magĩikara o haraaya,
And all the people saw the thunderings, and the lightnings, and the noise of the trumpet, and the mountain smoking: and when the people saw it, they removed, and stood afar off.
19 na makĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ, “Twarĩrie arĩ we, na nĩtũgũkũigua, no tiga kũreka twarĩrio nĩ Ngai, tũtigakue.”
And they said unto Moses, Speak thou with us, and we will hear: but let not Elohim speak with us, lest we die.
20 Musa akĩĩra andũ acio atĩrĩ, “Tigai gwĩtigĩra. Ngai okĩte kũmũgeria, nĩgeetha mũtũũre mwĩtigĩrĩte Ngai, mwagage kwĩhia.”
And Moses said unto the people, Fear not: for Elohim is come to prove you, and that his fear may be before your faces, that ye sin not.
21 Andũ acio magĩgĩikara o haraaya, nowe Musa agĩthengerera harĩa haarĩ nduma ndumanu, harĩa Ngai aarĩ.
And the people stood afar off, and Moses drew near unto the thick darkness where Elohim was.
22 Ningĩ Jehova akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ, “Ĩra andũ a Isiraeli ũndũ ũyũ: ‘Nĩmweyonera inyuĩ ene atĩ ndaaria na inyuĩ ndĩ o igũrũ:
And YHWH said unto Moses, Thus thou shalt say unto the children of Israel, Ye have seen that I have talked with you from heaven.
23 Mũtikanathondeke ngai ingĩ cia kũhooyagwo hamwe na niĩ; mũtikanethondekere ngai cia betha kana ngai cia thahabu.
Ye shall not make with me elohim of silver, neither shall ye make unto you elohim of gold.
24 “‘Njakĩrai kĩgongona gĩa tĩĩri, na mũrutĩre ngʼondu na mbũri na ngʼombe cianyu ho irĩ magongona manyu ma njino na ma ũiguano. Kũrĩa guothe ngaatũma rĩĩtwa rĩakwa rĩtĩĩagwo, nĩndĩũkaga kũrĩ inyuĩ na ngamũrathima.
An altar of earth thou shalt make unto me, and shalt sacrifice thereon thy burnt offerings, and thy peace offerings, thy sheep, and thine oxen: in all places where I record my name I will come unto thee, and I will bless thee.
25 Mũngĩnjakĩra kĩgongona kĩa mahiga, mũtigagĩake na mahiga marĩa maacũhie, nĩgũkorwo mũngĩgaatũmĩra kĩndũ gĩa gwacũhia nĩmũgagĩthaahia.
And if thou wilt make me an altar of stone, thou shalt not build it of hewn stone: for if thou lift up thy tool upon it, thou hast polluted it.
26 Mũtikanahaice kĩgongona gĩakwa na ngathĩ, nĩguo njaga yanyu ndĩkanonekanĩre ho.’
Neither shalt thou go up by steps unto mine altar, that thy nakedness be not discovered thereon.
