< Ezekieli 16 >

1 Kiugo kĩa Jehova nĩkĩanginyĩrĩire, ngĩĩrwo atĩrĩ,
Again the word of Jehovah came unto me, saying,
2 “Mũrũ wa mũndũ, ngʼethanĩra na itũũra rĩa Jerusalemu, ũrĩonie mĩtugo yarĩo ĩyo ĩrĩ magigi,
Son of man, cause Jerusalem to know her abominations;
3 uuge atĩrĩ, ‘Ũũ nĩguo Mwathani Jehova areera Jerusalemu: Kĩhumo gĩaku na gũciarwo gwaku cioimanire na bũrũri wa andũ a Kaanani; thoguo aarĩ Mũamori, nake maitũguo aarĩ Mũhiti.
and say, Thus saith the Lord Jehovah unto Jerusalem: Thy birth and thy nativity is of the land of the Canaanite; the Amorite was thy father, and thy mother was a Hittite.
4 Mũthenya ũrĩa waciarirwo-rĩ, ndwatinirio rũrĩra, o na kana ũgĩthambio na maaĩ nĩguo ũthere, o na kana ũkĩhakwo cumbĩ, kana ũgĩthaywo na nguo cia mwana.
And as for thy nativity, in the day thou wast born thy navel was not cut, neither wast thou washed in water to cleanse thee; thou wast not salted at all, nor swaddled at all.
5 Gũtirĩ mũndũ o na ũmwe wakũrorire, agĩkũiguĩra tha, kana agĩgũcaaĩra o kũigana nĩguo agwĩke ũndũ o na ũmwe wa macio. No rĩrĩ, wateirwo na kũu werũ-inĩ, nĩ ũndũ wamenirwo o mũthenya o ro ũcio waciarirwo.
No eye pitied thee, to do any of these things unto thee, to have compassion upon thee; but thou wast cast out in the open field, for that thy person was abhorred, in the day that thou wast born.
6 “‘Hĩndĩ ĩyo nĩndahĩtũkĩire hau warĩ ngĩkuona ũkĩĩgaragaria thakame-inĩ yaku, na rĩrĩa wakomete hau thakame-inĩ yaku-rĩ, ngĩkwĩra atĩrĩ, “Tũũra muoyo!”
And when I passed by thee, and saw thee weltering in thy blood, I said unto thee, [Though thou art] in thy blood, live; yea, I said unto thee, [Though thou art] in thy blood, live.
7 Nĩndatũmire ũkũre o ta mũtĩ wa mũgũnda. Nawe ũgĩkũra, ũkĩneneha, o na ũgĩtuĩka ithaga ithaka mũno gũkĩra marĩa mangĩ. Nyondo ciaku nacio ikĩĩhaanda, na njuĩrĩ yaku ĩgĩkũra, o wee ũrĩa warĩ njaga na ũkaaga nguo.
I caused thee to multiply as that which groweth in the field, and thou didst increase and wax great, and thou attainedst to excellent ornament; thy breasts were fashioned, and thy hair was grown; yet thou wast naked and bare.
8 “‘Thuutha ũcio nĩndahĩtũkĩire hau, na rĩrĩa ndaakũrorire ngĩona atĩ warĩ mũgima wa kwendeka, ngĩgũtambũrũkĩria gĩcũrĩ kĩa nguo yakwa, ngĩhumbĩra njaga yaku. Na niĩ ngĩkwĩhĩtĩra mwĩhĩtwa mũrũmu, na tũkĩgĩa kĩrĩkanĩro nawe, ũgĩtuĩka wakwa, ũguo nĩguo Mwathani Jehova ekuuga.
Now when I passed by thee, and looked upon thee, behold, thy time was the time of love; and I spread my skirt over thee, and covered thy nakedness: yea, I sware unto thee, and entered into a covenant with thee, saith the Lord Jehovah, and thou becamest mine.
9 “‘Nĩndagũthambirie na maaĩ, ngĩkũgiria thakame, na ngĩkũhaka maguta.
Then washed I thee with water; yea, I thoroughly washed away thy blood from thee, and I anointed thee with oil.
10 Nĩndakũhumbire nguo ngʼemie na ngĩgwĩkĩra nyamũga cia rũũa. Nĩndakũhumbire nguo njega ya gatani na ngĩkũhumba nguo cia goro.
I clothed thee also with broidered work, and shod thee with sealskin, and I girded thee about with fine linen, and covered thee with silk.
11 Nĩndakũgemirie na mathaga: ngĩgwĩkĩra bangiri moko, na mũgathĩ ngingo,
And I decked thee with ornaments, and I put bracelets upon thy hands, and a chain on thy neck.
12 ngĩcooka ngĩgwĩkĩra gĩcũhĩ iniũrũ, na icũhĩ matũ, na tanji thaka mũtwe.
And I put a ring upon thy nose, and ear-rings in thine ears, and a beautiful crown upon thy head.
13 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio ũkĩgemio na thahabu na betha: nacio nguo ciaku ciarĩ cia gatani ĩrĩa njega, na itambaya cia goro, na nguo ngʼemie. Irio ciaku ciarĩ mũtu mũhinyu, na ũũkĩ, na maguta ma mũtamaiyũ. Wee nawe ũgĩthakara mũno na ũkĩambatĩrio ũgĩtuĩka mũthamaki-mũndũ-wa-nja.
Thus wast thou decked with gold and silver; and thy raiment was of fine linen, and silk, and broidered work; thou didst eat fine flour, and honey, and oil; and thou wast exceeding beautiful, and thou didst prosper unto royal estate.
14 Nayo ngumo yaku ĩgĩtheerema ndũrĩrĩ-inĩ nĩ ũndũ wa ũthaka waku, nĩ ũndũ riiri ũrĩa ndaagwĩkĩrĩte nĩwatũmire ũthaka waku wagĩrĩre kũna, ũguo nĩguo Mwathani Jehova ekuuga.
And thy renown went forth among the nations for thy beauty; for it was perfect, through my majesty which I had put upon thee, saith the Lord Jehovah.
15 “‘No rĩrĩ, wee nĩwehokire ũthaka waku, na ũkĩhũthĩra ngumo yaku ĩgĩtũma ũtuĩke mũmaraya. Nĩwahũũrire ũmaraya na mwĩhĩtũkĩri o wothe, naguo ũthaka waku ũgĩtuĩka wake.
But thou didst trust in thy beauty, and playedst the harlot because of thy renown, and pouredst out thy whoredoms on every one that passed by; his it was.
16 Woire nguo imwe ciaku, ũkĩgemia mahooero ma kũndũ gũtũũgĩru kũrĩa wahũũragĩra ũmaraya. Maũndũ ta macio matiagĩrĩirwo nĩ gwĩkĩka, kana magĩe kuo o na rĩ.
And thou didst take of thy garments, and madest for thee high places decked with divers colors, and playedst the harlot upon them: [the like things] shall not come, neither shall it be [so].
17 Ningĩ ũgĩcooka ũkĩoya mathaga macio mega ndaakũheire, o mathaga macio mathondeketwo na thahabu yakwa na betha yakwa, ũgĩĩthondekera mĩhianano ya arũme, ũgĩcooka ũkĩhũũra ũmaraya nayo.
Thou didst also take thy fair jewels of my gold and of my silver, which I had given thee, and madest for thee images of men, and didst play the harlot with them;
18 Ningĩ ũkĩoya nguo icio ciaku ciarĩ ngʼemie, ũgĩcihumba mĩhianano ĩyo, ũgĩcooka ũkĩmĩrutĩra maguta makwa na ũbumba.
and thou tookest thy broidered garments, and coveredst them, and didst set mine oil and mine incense before them.
19 O nacio irio iria ndaakũheete ũrĩe, nacio nĩ mũtu mũhinyu, na maguta ma mũtamaiyũ, na ũũkĩ, wacirutĩire mĩhianano ĩyo ĩtuĩke ũbumba ũrĩ na mũtararĩko mwega. Ũguo nĩguo gwekĩkire, Mwathani Jehova nĩwe ugĩte ũguo.
My bread also which I gave thee, fine flour, and oil, and honey, wherewith I fed thee, thou didst even set it before them for a sweet savor; and [thus] it was, saith the Lord Jehovah.
20 “‘Na rĩrĩ, woire ariũ na aarĩ aku arĩa wanjiarĩire, ũkĩmaruta igongona matuĩke ta irio cia mĩhianano ĩyo. Ũhũũri waku wa ũmaraya-rĩ, kaĩ ũtaarĩ mũiganu?
Moreover thou hast taken thy sons and thy daughters, whom thou hast borne unto me, and these hast thou sacrificed unto them to be devoured. Were thy whoredoms a small matter,
21 Nĩwathĩnjire ciana ciakwa ũgĩciruta igongona harĩ mĩhianano ĩyo.
that thou hast slain my children, and delivered them up, in causing them to pass through [the fire] unto them?
22 Mĩtugo-inĩ yaku yothe ĩrĩ magigi ĩrĩa wekire, na ũhũũri-inĩ waku wa ũmaraya, ndwaririkanire matukũ ma ũnini waku, rĩrĩa warĩ njaga na ũtaarĩ na nguo, o rĩrĩa wegaragaragia thakame-inĩ yaku.
And in all thine abominations and thy whoredoms thou hast not remembered the days of thy youth, when thou wast naked and bare, and wast weltering in thy blood.
23 “‘Hĩ, kaĩ ũrĩ na haaro-ĩ! ũguo nĩguo Jehova ekuuga. O na wĩkĩte mawaganu macio mangĩ mothe,
And it is come to pass after all thy wickedness (woe, woe unto thee! saith the Lord Jehovah),
24 nĩweyakĩire kĩhumbu, na ũgĩaka ihooero itũũgĩru handũ harĩa hothe haarĩ na kĩhaaro gĩa kũgomanagwo.
that thou hast built unto thee a vaulted place, and hast made thee a lofty place in every street.
25 Gĩturi-inĩ kĩa o njĩra nĩweyakĩire mahooero matũũgĩru, na ũkĩagithia ũthaka waku gĩtĩĩo, ũgakĩrĩrĩria kũneana mwĩrĩ waku kũrĩ mwĩhĩtũkĩri o wothe atharie nawe.
Thou hast built thy lofty place at the head of every way, and hast made thy beauty an abomination, and hast opened thy feet to every one that passed by, and multiplied thy whoredom.
26 Nĩwahũũrire ũmaraya na andũ a Misiri arĩa mwariganĩtie nao, o acio maiyũrĩtwo nĩ merirĩria ma mwĩrĩ, ũgĩtũma ndakare nĩ ũndũ waku gũkĩrĩrĩria gũtharia.
Thou hast also committed fornication with the Egyptians, thy neighbors, great of flesh; and hast multiplied thy whoredom, to provoke me to anger.
27 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio ngĩgũtambũrũkĩria guoko ngĩgũũkĩrĩra, ngĩnyiihia bũrũri waku; nĩndakũneanire moko-inĩ ma thũ ciaku, o acio airĩtu a Afilisti, arĩa maamakirio nĩ mĩtugo yaku ya ũũra-thoni.
Behold therefore, I have stretched out my hand over thee, and have diminished thine ordinary [food], and delivered thee unto the will of them that hate thee, the daughters of the Philistines, that are ashamed of thy lewd way.
28 Nĩwahũũrire ũmaraya na andũ a Ashuri o nao, nĩ ũndũ ndũngĩaiganirie; o na thuutha ũcio-rĩ, ndwaiganirie.
Thou hast played the harlot also with the Assyrians, because thou wast insatiable; yea, thou hast played the harlot with them, and yet thou wast not satisfied.
29 Ningĩ ũgĩkĩrĩrĩria gũtharia o nginya ũgĩkinya Babuloni, bũrũri wa onjoria, no-o na weka ũguo ndwaiganirie.
Thou hast moreover multiplied thy whoredom unto the land of traffic, unto Chaldea; and yet thou wast not satisfied herewith.
30 “‘Mwathani Jehova ekuuga atĩrĩ, Hĩ! Kaĩ wee ũrĩ wa ngoro hũthũ-ĩ! Wĩkaga maũndũ macio mothe, o ta mũmaraya ũtarĩ thoni!
How weak is thy heart, saith the Lord Jehovah, seeing thou doest all these things, the work of an impudent harlot;
31 Rĩrĩa weyakĩire ihumbu gĩturi-inĩ kĩa o njĩra, na ũkĩĩakĩra mahooero matũũgĩru harĩa hothe haarĩ kĩhaaro gĩa kũgomanwo-rĩ, we wetuire ta ũtarĩ mũmaraya, nĩ ũndũ nĩwaregire irĩhi.
in that thou buildest thy vaulted place at the head of every way, and makest thy lofty place in every street, and hast not been as a harlot, in that thou scornest hire.
32 “‘Wee mũtumia ũyũ mũtharia! Wee wendaga ageni handũ ha mũthuuriguo!
A wife that committeth adultery! that taketh strangers instead of her husband!
33 Mũmaraya o wothe nĩamũkagĩra irĩhi, no wee-rĩ, nĩwe ũheaga endwa aku othe iheo, ũkamahaka nĩguo mokage kũrĩ we kuuma kũndũ guothe nĩguo megwatĩre ikeno ciaku itaagĩrĩire.
They give gifts to all harlots; but thou givest thy gifts to all thy lovers, and bribest them, that they may come unto thee on every side for thy whoredoms.
34 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio wee ndũtariĩ ta arĩa angĩ ũmaraya-inĩ waku; gũtirĩ mũndũ ũkwĩringagĩrĩria ũmwĩtĩkĩre. Wee-rĩ, ũrĩ na ũtiganu mũno na arĩa angĩ, nĩgũkorwo wee nĩwe ũrĩhanaga, no gũtirĩ kĩndũ ũrĩhagwo.
And thou art different from [other] women in thy whoredoms, in that none followeth thee to play the harlot; and whereas thou givest hire, and no hire is given unto thee, therefore thou art different.
35 “‘Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, wee mũmaraya ũyũ, igua kiugo kĩa Jehova!
Wherefore, O harlot, hear the word of Jehovah:
36 Mwathani Jehova ekuuga atĩrĩ: Tondũ nĩwaitangire ũtonga waku, na ũkĩguũria njaga yaku ũgĩtharia na endwa aku, o na tondũ wa mĩhianano ĩyo yothe yaku ĩrĩ magigi, na tondũ nĩwamaheire thakame ya ciana ciaku,
Thus saith the Lord Jehovah, Because thy filthiness was poured out, and thy nakedness uncovered through thy whoredoms with thy lovers; and because of all the idols of thy abominations, and for the blood of thy children, that thou didst give unto them;
37 nĩ ũndũ ũcio nĩngũcookanĩrĩria endwa aku othe arĩa wanekenia nao, arĩa wendete o na arĩa ũthũire. Nĩngũmacookanĩrĩria magũũkĩrĩre kuuma mĩena yothe, na niĩ ngũguũrie nguo mbere yao, nao mone njaga yaku yothe.
therefore behold, I will gather all thy lovers, with whom thou hast taken pleasure, and all them that thou hast loved, with all them that thou hast hated; I will even gather them against thee on every side, and will uncover thy nakedness unto them, that they may see all thy nakedness.
38 Nĩngagũtuĩra ciira o ta ũrĩa andũ-a-nja arĩa matharagia na arĩa maitithagia thakame matuuagĩrwo; na ndũme ũkorwo nĩ mangʼũrĩ makwa na ũiguĩrwo ũiru nĩguo ũcookererwo nĩ thakame ĩyo.
And I will judge thee, as women that break wedlock and shed blood are judged; and I will bring upon thee the blood of wrath and jealousy.
39 Ningĩ nĩngakũneana moko-inĩ ma endwa aku, nao nĩmakaharagania ihumbu icio ciaku, na manange mahooero macio maku matũũgĩru. Nao nĩmagakũruta nguo, na moe mathaga maku ma goro, magũtige njaga na ũrĩ ũtheri.
I will also give thee into their hand, and they shall throw down thy vaulted place, and break down thy lofty places; and they shall strip thee of thy clothes, and take thy fair jewels; and they shall leave thee naked and bare.
40 Nĩmakarehe kĩrĩndĩ gĩgũũkĩrĩre, nao nĩmagakũhũũra na mahiga nyuguto, na magũtinangie na hiũ ciao cia njora.
They shall also bring up a company against thee, and they shall stone thee with stones, and thrust thee through with their swords.
41 Nĩmagacina nyũmba ciaku na makũherithie wĩroreirwo nĩ andũ-a-nja aingĩ. Nĩngakinyia ũmaraya waku mũthia, nawe ndũgacooka kũrĩha endwa acio aku.
And they shall burn thy houses with fire, and execute judgments upon thee in the sight of many women; and I will cause thee to cease from playing the harlot, and thou shalt also give no hire any more.
42 Hĩndĩ ĩyo mathũgũta makwa ma gũgũũkĩrĩra nĩmakahũahũa, namo marakara makwa maiyũrĩtwo nĩ ũiru makweherere. Nĩngahoorera na ndigacooka kũrakara.
So will I cause my wrath toward thee to rest, and my jealousy shall depart from thee, and I will be quiet, and will be no more angry.
43 “‘Na tondũ ndwaririkanire matukũ ma ũnini waku, no kũndakaria wandakaririe na maũndũ macio mothe-rĩ, ti-itherũ nĩngatũma ũcookererwo nĩ ũrĩa wĩkĩte, ũguo nĩguo Mwathani Jehova ekuuga. Githĩ nduongereire ũũra-thoni harĩ maũndũ marĩa mangĩ wĩkaga marĩ magigi?
Because thou hast not remembered the days of thy youth, but hast raged against me in all these things; therefore, behold, I also will bring thy way upon thy head, saith the Lord Jehovah: and thou shalt not commit this lewdness with all thine abominations.
44 “‘Mũndũ o wothe waragia na thimo-rĩ, nĩagakuuna thimo ĩno, oige atĩrĩ: “O ta ũrĩa nyina ahaana, no taguo mwarĩ ahaana.”
Behold, every one that useth proverbs shall use [this] proverb against thee, saying, As is the mother, so is her daughter.
45 Wee ũrĩ mwarĩ wa nyũkwa kũna, ũrĩa wanyararire mũthuuriwe na ciana ciake; na ũrĩ wa nyina kũna na aarĩ a maitũguo, arĩa maanyararire athuuri ao na ciana ciao. Maitũguo aarĩ Mũhiti, nake thoguo aarĩ Mũamori.
Thou art the daughter of thy mother, that loatheth her husband and her children; and thou art the sister of thy sisters, who loathed their husbands and their children: your mother was a Hittite, and your father an Amorite.
46 Mwarĩ wa nyũkwa ũrĩa mũkũrũ aarĩ Samaria ũrĩa watũũraga mwena waku wa gathigathini marĩ na airĩtu ake; nake mwarĩ wa nyũkwa ũrĩa mũnini aarĩ Sodomu, ũrĩa watũũraga mwena waku wa gũthini hamwe na airĩtu ake.
And thine elder sister is Samaria, that dwelleth at thy left hand, she and her daughters; and thy younger sister, that dwelleth at thy right hand, is Sodom and her daughters.
47 Wee-rĩ, to gũthiĩ wathiire na mĩthiĩre yao na ũkĩrũmĩrĩra mĩtugo yao ĩrĩ magigi, no mĩthiĩre-inĩ yaku yothe nĩwahiũhire gũthũka kũmakĩra.
Yet hast thou not walked in their ways, nor done after their abominations; but, as [if that were] a very little [thing], thou wast more corrupt than they in all thy ways.
48 Mwathani Jehova ekuuga atĩrĩ: Ti-itherũ o ta ũrĩa Niĩ ndũũraga muoyo-rĩ, mwarĩ wa nyũkwa Sodomu na airĩtu ake matiekire ta ũrĩa wee na airĩtu aku mwĩkĩte.
As I live, saith the Lord Jehovah, Sodom thy sister hath not done, she nor her daughters, as thou hast done, thou and thy daughters.
49 “‘Maya nĩmo maarĩ mehia ma mwarĩ wa nyũkwa Sodomu: We marĩ na airĩtu ake maarĩ andũ etĩĩi, a kwĩhũũnĩrĩria, na matiarũmbũyagia ũhoro wa andũ arĩa angĩ; matiateithirie andũ arĩa athĩĩni o na arĩa abatari.
Behold, this was the iniquity of thy sister Sodom: pride, fulness of bread, and prosperous ease was in her and in her daughters; neither did she strengthen the hand of the poor and needy.
50 Nĩmeĩkĩrĩire na magĩĩka maũndũ marĩ magigi maitho-inĩ makwa. Nĩ ũndũ ũcio nĩndamaingatire, o ta ũguo muonete.
And they were haughty, and committed abomination before me: therefore I took them away as I saw [good].
51 Samaria ndehirie nuthu ya mehia marĩa wee wehirie. Wee wĩkĩte maũndũ marĩ magigi maingĩ kũmakĩra, na nĩũtũmĩte aarĩ a maitũguo moneke ta marĩ athingu nĩ ũndũ wa maũndũ macio mothe wĩkĩte.
Neither hath Samaria committed half of thy sins; but thou hast multiplied thine abominations more than they, and hast justified thy sisters by all thine abominations which thou hast done.
52 Ũrokĩrĩrĩria gũconorithio, nĩgũkorwo nĩũtũmĩte aarĩ a maitũguo moneke ta marĩ athingu. Tondũ mehia maku maarĩ mooru gũkĩra mao, o mekuoneka marĩ athingu gũgũkĩra. Nĩ ũndũ ũcio-rĩ, igua thoni na ũconoke, nĩgũkorwo nĩũtũmĩte aarĩ a nyũkwa moneke marĩ athingu.
Thou also, bear thou thine own shame, in that thou hast given judgment for thy sisters; through thy sins that thou hast committed more abominable than they, they are more righteous than thou: yea, be thou also confounded, and bear thy shame, in that thou hast justified thy sisters.
53 “‘No rĩrĩ, nĩngacookeria Sodomu ũgaacĩru wake marĩ na airĩtu ake, o na Samaria marĩ na airĩtu ake, na nĩngagũcookeria ũgaacĩru waku o hamwe nao,
And I will turn again their captivity, the captivity of Sodom and her daughters, and the captivity of Samaria and her daughters, and the captivity of thy captives in the midst of them;
54 nĩguo ũigue thoni na ũconoke nĩ ũndũ wa maũndũ macio mothe wekire nĩ ũndũ wa kũmahe ũhurũko.
that thou mayest bear thine own shame, and mayest be ashamed because of all that thou hast done, in that thou art a comfort unto them.
55 Nao aarĩ acio a maitũguo, Sodomu marĩ na airĩtu ake, na Samaria marĩ na airĩtu ake-rĩ, nĩmagacooka o ta ũrĩa maarĩ mbere; nawe ũrĩ na airĩtu aku nĩmũgacooka o ta ũrĩa mwarĩ mbere.
And thy sisters, Sodom and her daughters, shall return to their former estate; and Samaria and her daughters shall return to their former estate; and thou and thy daughters shall return to your former estate.
56 O na ndũngĩagwetire rĩĩtwa rĩa mwarĩ wa nyũkwa Sodomu mũthenya ũcio wetĩĩaga,
For thy sister Sodom was not mentioned by thy mouth in the day of thy pride,
57 mbere ya waganu waku kũguũrio. O na kũrĩ ũguo-rĩ, rĩu ũrĩ mũnyarare nĩ airĩtu a Edomu, marĩ hamwe na andũ othe arĩa mariganĩtie nao, o na nĩ airĩtu a Afilisti, acio othe magũthũire na magakũrigiicĩria na mĩena yothe.
before thy wickedness was uncovered, as at the time of the reproach of the daughters of Syria, and of all that are round about her, the daughters of the Philistines, that do despite unto thee round about.
58 Wee nĩwe ũgaacookererwo nĩ maciaro ma ũũra-thoni waku, na ma maũndũ marĩa wĩkaga marĩ magigi, ũguo nĩguo Jehova ekuuga.
Thou hast borne thy lewdness and thine abominations, saith Jehovah.
59 “‘Ũũ nĩguo Mwathani Jehova ekuuga: Nĩngagwĩka o ta ũrĩa wagĩrĩire nĩ gwĩkwo, tondũ nĩũmenete mwĩhĩtwa wakwa na ũndũ wa gũthũkia kĩrĩkanĩro kĩu.
For thus saith the Lord Jehovah: I will also deal with thee as thou hast done, who hast despised the oath in breaking the covenant.
60 No rĩrĩ, nĩngaririkana kĩrĩkanĩro kĩrĩa ndarĩkanĩire nawe matukũ-inĩ ma ũnini waku, na nĩngahaanda kĩrĩkanĩro giitũ nawe gĩa gũtũũra.
Nevertheless I will remember my covenant with thee in the days of thy youth, and I will establish unto thee an everlasting covenant.
61 Hĩndĩ ĩyo nĩũkaririkana mĩthiĩre yaku, nawe ũconoke rĩrĩa ũkaamũkĩra aarĩ a maitũguo arĩa akũrũ gũgũkĩra na arĩa anini gũgũkĩra. Nĩngamaneana kũrĩ we marĩ ta aarĩ aku, no ti kũringana na kĩrĩkanĩro giitũ nawe.
Then shalt thou remember thy ways, and be ashamed, when thou shalt receive thy sisters, thine elder [sisters] and thy younger; and I will give them unto thee for daughters, but not by thy covenant.
62 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio nĩngahaanda kĩrĩkanĩro giitũ nawe, na nĩũkamenya atĩ niĩ nĩ niĩ Jehova.
And I will establish my covenant with thee; and thou shalt know that I am Jehovah;
63 Ningĩ rĩrĩa ngaakũhoroheria nĩ ũndũ wa maũndũ mothe marĩa wĩkĩte-rĩ, nĩũkaririkana na ũconoke, na ndũgacooka gũtumũra kanua gaku rĩngĩ nĩ ũndũ wa ũrĩa ũconorithĩtio, ũguo nĩguo Mwathani Jehova ekuuga.’”
that thou mayest remember, and be confounded, and never open thy mouth any more, because of thy shame, when I have forgiven thee all that thou hast done, saith the Lord Jehovah.
