Kĩambĩrĩria 20
1 Na rĩrĩ, Iburahĩmu nĩoimire kũu aarĩ, agĩthiĩ mwena wa Negevu, na agĩtũũra gatagatĩ ga Kadeshi na Shuri. Gwa kahinda nĩatũũrire Gerari
And Abraham departed thence towarde the southcontre and dwelled betwene Cades and Sur ad sogeorned in Gerar.
2 na arĩ kũu Iburahĩmu oigaga atĩrĩ ha ũhoro wa mũtumia wake Sara, “Ũyũ nĩ mwarĩ wa baba.” Tondũ ũcio Abimeleku mũthamaki wa Gerari agĩtũmanĩra Sara na akĩmuoya.
And Abraham sayde of Sara his wyfe that she was his sister. Than Abimelech kynge of Gerar sent and fett Sara awaye.
3 No rĩrĩ, Ngai akiumĩrĩra Abimeleku ũtukũ na kĩroto, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Wee-rĩ, no ta ũkuĩte tondũ mũndũ-wa-nja ũcio woete nĩ mũtumia wene.”
And God came to Abimelech by nyghte in a dreame and sayde to him: Se thou art but a deed man for the womas sake which thou hast taken awaye for she is a mans wyfe.
4 No Abimeleku ndaakoretwo akuhĩrĩirie Sara, nĩ ũndũ ũcio akĩũria atĩrĩ, “Mwathani, no wanange rũrĩrĩ rũtehĩtie?
But Abimelech had not yet come nye her and therfore sayde: lorde wilt thou sley rightewes people?
5 Githĩ ti we wanjĩĩrire, ‘Ũyũ nĩ mwarĩ wa baba?’ Na ningĩ o nake Sara githĩ ndoigire atĩrĩ, ‘Ũyũ nĩ mũrũ wa baba?’ Njĩkĩte ũndũ ũcio na ũrũngĩrĩru wa ngoro na moko matarĩ ũcuuke.”
sayde not he vnto me that she was hys sister? yee and sayde not she herself that he was hir brother? wyth a pure herte and innocent handes haue I done this.
6 Ningĩ Ngai akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ kĩroto-inĩ, “Ĩĩ, nĩnjũũĩ ũrekĩte ũguo na ũrũngĩrĩru wa ngoro, na nĩkĩo ndĩrakũgiririe ũnjĩhĩrie. Nĩkĩo itanareka ũmũhutie.
And God sayde vnto him in a dreame. I wot it well that thou dydest it in the purenesse of thi herte. And therfore I kepte ye that thou shuldest not synne agenst me nether suffred I the to come nygh her.
7 Rĩu-rĩ, cookeria mũndũ ũcio mũtumia wake, nĩgũkorwo nĩ mũnabii, nake nĩegũkũhooera, na nĩũgũtũũra muoyo. No waga kũmũcookia-rĩ, ũmenye ti-itherũ wee nĩũgũkua, na andũ aku othe nĩmegũkua.”
Now therfore delyuer the ma his wyfe ageyne for he is a prophete. And let him praye for the that thou mayst lyue. But and yf thou delyuer her not agayne be sure that thou shalt dye the deth with all that thou hast.
8 Mũthenya ũyũ ũngĩ rũciinĩ tene, Abimeleku agĩtũmanĩra anene ake othe, na aarĩkia kũmeera maũndũ marĩa mothe meekĩkĩte, andũ acio magĩĩtigĩra mũno.
Than Abimelech rose vp be tymes in the mornynge and called all his servauntes and tolde all these thinges in their eares and the men were sore a frayde.
9 Abimeleku agĩcooka agĩĩta Iburahĩmu na akĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Nĩ atĩa ũguo ũtwĩkĩte? Nĩ atĩa ngwĩhĩirie, nĩguo ũndeherere niĩ na ũthamaki wakwa ũũru mũnene ũguo? Ũnjĩkĩte maũndũ mataagĩrĩire gwĩkwo.”
And Abimelech called Abraham and sayde vnto him: What hast thou done vnto vs and what haue I offended the that thou shuldest brynge on me and on my kyngdome so greate a synne? thou hast done dedes vnto me that ought not to be done.
10 Ningĩ Abimeleku akĩũria Iburahĩmu atĩrĩ, “Nĩ kĩĩ gĩatũmire wĩke ũguo?”
And Abimelech sayde morouer vnto Abraham: What sawest thou that moved the to do this thinge?
11 Iburahĩmu akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Ndeĩrire atĩrĩ, ‘Kũndũ gũkũ andũ matiĩtigĩrĩte Ngai, na nĩmekũnjũraga nĩ ũndũ wa mũtumia wakwa.’
And Abraham Answered. I thought that peradveture the feare of God was not in this place and that they shulde sley me for my wyfes sake:
12 O na kũrĩ ũguo, ti-itherũ nĩ mwarĩ wa-baba, mũirĩtu wa baba; no tũtirĩ a nyina ũmwe, nĩkĩo aatuĩkire mũtumia wakwa.
yet in very dede she is my sister the doughter of my father but not of my mother: and became my wyfe.
13 Na rĩrĩa Ngai aandutire kuuma nyũmba-inĩ ya baba thiĩ ngorũũrage, ndeerire mũtumia wakwa atĩrĩ, ‘Ũũ nĩguo ũrĩnyonagia wendo waku: Kũrĩa guothe tũrĩthiiaga, uugage atĩrĩ ũhoro-inĩ ũnjĩgiĩ, “Ũyũ nĩ mũrũ wa baba.”’”
And after God caused me to wandre out of my fathers house I sayde vnto her: This kyndnesse shalt thou shewe vnto me in all places where we come that thou saye of me how that I am thy brother.
14 Iburahĩmu aarĩkia kwaria, Abimeleku akĩruta ngʼondu na ngʼombe, na ngombo cia arũme na cia andũ-a-nja, na agĩcihe Iburahĩmu, na akĩmũcookeria Sara mũtumia wake.
Than toke Abimelech shepe and oxen menservauntes and wemenseruauntes and gaue them vnto Abraham and delyvered him Sara his wyfe agayne.
15 Ningĩ Abimeleku akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Bũrũri wakwa ũrĩ mbere yaku; tũũra harĩa hothe ũngĩenda.”
And Abimelech sayde: beholde the lande lyeth be fore the dwell where it pleaseth ye best.
16 Nake Abimeleku akĩĩra Sara atĩrĩ, “Nĩngũhe mũrũ-wa-thoguo cekeri 1,000 cia betha ituĩke cia kũrĩhĩria ihĩtia rĩrĩa ũhĩtĩirio mbere ya andũ aya othe mũrĩ nao; we ndũrĩ ũũru wĩkĩte.”
And vnto Sara he sayde: Se I haue geuen thy brother a thousande peeces of syluer beholde he shall be a couerynge to thyne eyes vnto all that ar with the and vnto all men and an excuse.
17 Nake Iburahĩmu akĩhooya Ngai, nake Ngai akĩhonia Abimeleku, na mũtumia wake, na ngombo ciake cia airĩtu nĩguo mahote gũciara ciana rĩngĩ,
And so Abraham prayde vnto God and God healed Abimeleh and his wyfe and hys maydens so that they bare.
18 nĩgũkorwo Jehova nĩahingĩte nda cia andũ-a-nja othe a nyũmba ya Abimeleku, makaaga kũgĩa ciana, nĩ ũndũ wa Abimeleku kuoya Sara mũtumia wa Iburahĩmu.
For the LORde had closed to all the matryces of the house of Abimelech because of Sara Abrahams wyfe.
