Kĩambĩrĩria 34
1 Na rĩrĩ, mũthenya ũmwe, Dina mũirĩtu ũrĩa Lea aaciarĩire Jakubu, nĩathiire gũceerera andũ-a-nja a bũrũri ũcio.
And Dinah the daughter of Leah, whom she had born unto Jacob, went out to look about among the daughters of the land.
2 Na rĩrĩa Shekemu mũrũ wa Hamoru ũrĩa Mũhivi, mũnene wa gĩcigo kĩu aamuonire, akĩmũnyiita, agĩkoma nake na hinya.
And Shechem the son of Chamor the Hivite, the prince of the country, saw her; and he took her, and lay with her, and did her violence.
3 Na ngoro yake ĩkĩguucĩrĩrio nĩ Dina mwarĩ ũcio wa Jakubu, na akĩenda mũirĩtu ũcio na akĩmwarĩria wega.
And his soul clave unto Dinah the daughter of Jacob, and he loved the maiden, and spoke kindly unto the maiden.
4 Nake Shekemu akĩĩra ithe Hamoru atĩrĩ, “Njarĩrĩria harĩ ithe wa mũirĩtu ũyũ atuĩke mũtumia wakwa.”
And Shechem spoke unto Chamor his father, saying, Get me this girl for wife.
5 Rĩrĩa Jakubu aiguire atĩ mwarĩ Dina nĩarĩkĩtie gũthũkio-rĩ, na tondũ ariũ ake maarĩ gĩthaka-inĩ na mahiũ make, agĩkira na ũhoro ũcio o nginya rĩrĩa mainũkire.
And Jacob heard that he had defiled Dinah his daughter; but his sons were with his cattle in the field: and Jacob held his peace until they were come.
6 Hĩndĩ ĩyo Hamoru ithe wa Shekemu agĩthiĩ kwaria na Jakubu.
And Chamor the father of Shechem went out unto to Jacob to speak with him.
7 Nao ariũ a Jakubu nĩmainũkĩte kuuma mĩgũnda-inĩ maigua ũrĩa gwekĩkĩte. Nao makĩiyũrwo nĩ kĩeha na mangʼũrĩ, tondũ Shekemu nĩekĩte ũndũ wa thoni thĩinĩ wa Isiraeli, nĩ gũkoma na mwarĩ wa Jakubu, ũndũ ũrĩa ũtagĩrĩirwo nĩ gwĩkwo.
And the sons of Jacob came from the field when they heard it, and the men were grieved, and it excited their anger greatly; because he had wrought a disgraceful thing in Israel to lie with the daughter of Jacob, and this ought not to be done.
8 No Hamoru akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Ngoro ya mũrũ wakwa Shekemu nĩĩguucĩrĩirio nĩ mwarĩ wanyu. Ndamũthaitha ĩtĩkĩrai amũhikie atuĩke mũtumia wake.
And Chamor spoke with them, saying, The soul of Shechem my son longeth for your daughter; give her, I pray you, unto him for wife.
9 Rekei tũhikanagie; mũtũheage airĩtu anyu na inyuĩ tũkamũheaga airĩtu aitũ.
And intermarry with us; your daughters ye shall give unto us, and our daughters ye may take unto yourselves.
10 Inyuĩ no mũtũũre hamwe na ithuĩ; bũrũri ũyũ gũtirĩ handũ mũrigĩrĩirio. Tũũrai kuo, mwonjorithagie kuo, na mwĩgĩĩre na indo ciaguo.”
And with us shall ye dwell; and the land shall be open before you; dwell and trade ye therein, and acquire possessions therein.
11 Ningĩ Shekemu akĩĩra ithe wa Dina na ariũ a ithe atĩrĩ, “Rekei njĩtĩkĩrĩke maitho-inĩ manyu na nĩngũmũhe o kĩrĩa gĩothe mũngĩnjĩtia.
And Shechem said unto her father and unto her brother, Let me but find grace in your eyes, and whatever ye may say unto me, I will give.
12 Njĩtiai rũracio rwa mũhiki na kĩheo kĩrĩa ingĩrehe, o mũigana ũrĩa mũngĩenda, na nĩngũrĩha o kĩrĩa gĩothe mũngĩnjĩtia. No ndamũthaitha mũũhe mũirĩtu ũyũ atuĩke mũtumia wakwa.”
Ask of me ever so much dowry and gift, and I will give, just as ye may say unto me; but give me the maiden for wife.
13 Na tondũ mwarĩ wa nyina Dina nĩarĩkĩtie gũthũkio-rĩ, ariũ a Jakubu rĩrĩa maaragia na Shekemu na ithe Hamoru, magĩcookia ũhoro ũcio na njĩra ya maheeni.
And the sons of Jacob answered Shechem and Chamor his father with cunning, and spoke; because he had defiled Dinah their sister.
14 Makĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Tũtingĩĩka ũndũ ta ũcio; tũtingĩheana mwarĩ witũ kũrĩ mũndũ ũtarĩ mũruu. Ũndũ ũcio no ũtuĩke wa gũtũnyararithia.
And they said unto them, We cannot do this thing, to give our sister to one that is uncircumcised; for that would be a reproach unto us.
15 Tũkũmwĩtĩkĩria tondũ wa gĩtũmi o kĩmwe tu; inyuĩ mũtuĩke ta ithuĩ na ũndũ wa kũruithia arũme anyu othe.
But on this condition will we consent unto you; if ye will become as we are, that every male of you be circumcised:
16 Hĩndĩ ĩyo nĩmũrĩhikagia airĩtu aitũ na nĩtũrĩhikagia airĩtu anyu. Nĩtũgũtũũrania na inyuĩ na tũtuĩke andũ amwe.
Then will we give our daughters unto you, and we will take your daughters unto us; and we will dwell with you, and we will become one people.
17 No angĩkorwo mũtigwĩtĩkĩra kũrua-rĩ, tũkuoya mwarĩ witũ twĩthiĩre.”
But if ye will not hearken unto us, to be circumcised, then will we take our daughter, and go our way.
18 Ũhoro ũcio ũkĩoneka ũrĩ mwega nĩ Hamoru na mũriũ Shekemu.
And their words were pleasing in the eyes of Chamor, and in the eyes of Shechem, the son of Chamor.
19 Tondũ nĩwe warĩ mũtĩĩe mũno kũrĩ andũ othe a nyũmba ya ithe, mwanake ũcio ndaateire ihinda rĩa gwĩka ũrĩa moigire, tondũ nĩakenetio nĩ mwarĩ wa Jakubu.
And the young man deferred not to do the thing, because he had delight in Jacob's daughter; and he was the most honored of all the house of his father.
20 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Hamoru na mũriũ Shekemu magĩthiĩ kĩhingo-inĩ gĩa itũũra rĩao inene makaarie na andũ ao a itũũra rĩu.
And Chamor and Shechem his son came unto the gate of their city, and spoke with the men of their city, saying,
21 Nao makiuga atĩrĩ, “Andũ aya nĩ arata aitũ; rekei matũũre bũrũri-inĩ witũ na monjorithagie kuo; bũrũri ũyũ nĩ mũnene wa kũmaigana. Ithuĩ no tũhikie airĩtu ao, nao no mahikie airĩtu aitũ.
These men are peaceably inclined with us; therefore let them dwell in the land, and trade therein; and the land, behold, it is large enough on all sides before them; their daughters we will take unto us for wives, and our daughters we will give unto them.
22 No andũ acio mangĩtĩkĩra gũtũũrania na ithuĩ ta rũrĩrĩ rũmwe angĩkorwo arũme aitũ othe nĩmekũrua, o ta ũrĩa o maruĩte.
Only with this condition will the men consent unto us to dwell with us, to become one people, if every male among us be circumcised, as they are circumcised.
23 Githĩ mahiũ mao, na indo ciao ciothe, o na nyamũ iria ingĩ ciao ciothe itigũgĩtuĩka ciitũ? Nĩ ũndũ ũcio rekei tũmetĩkĩre, na nĩ megũtũũrania na ithuĩ.”
Their cattle and their substance and every beast of theirs will they not be ours? only let us consent unto them, that they may dwell with us.
24 Arũme arĩa othe maathiĩte kĩhingo-inĩ gĩa itũũra rĩu inene magĩĩtĩkania na Hamoru na mũriũ Shekemu, na arũme othe a itũũra rĩu makĩrua.
And unto Chamor and unto Shechem his son hearkened all that went out of the gate of his city; and all the males were circumcised, all that went out of the gate of his city.
25 Thuutha wa mĩthenya ĩtatũ, hĩndĩ ĩrĩa othe maarĩ na ruo ariũ eerĩ a Jakubu, Simeoni na Lawi, ariũ a nyina na Dina, makĩoya hiũ ciao cia njora magĩtharĩkĩra itũũra rĩu hĩndĩ ĩrĩa rĩtekũũaga makĩũraga arũme othe.
And it came to pass on the third day, when they were sore, that two of the sons of Jacob, Simeon and Levi, Dinah's brothers, took each his sword, and came upon the city unresisted and slew all the males.
26 Ningĩ makĩũraga Hamoru na mũriũ Shekemu na rũhiũ rwa njora, na makĩruta Dina nyũmba-inĩ ya Shekemu, magĩĩthiĩra.
And they slew Chamor and Shechem his son with the edge of the sword; and they took Dinah out of Shechem's house, and went out.
27 Ariũ arĩa angĩ a Jakubu magĩkinya kũu ciimba ciarĩ, na magĩĩtahĩra indo cia itũũra rĩu mwarĩ wa ithe wao aathũkĩirio.
The sons of Jacob came upon the slain, and spoiled the city, because they had defiled their sister.
28 Nao magĩtaha ndũũru cia mbũri na cia ngʼombe na ndigiri, na indo iria ingĩ ciao ciothe iria ciarĩ itũũra-inĩ rĩu inene, na iria ciarĩ mĩgũnda-inĩ.
They took their sheep and their oxen, and their asses, and that which was in the city, and that which was in the field.
29 Na magĩkuua ũtonga wothe wa itũũra, na atumia othe na ciana, magĩtaha indo ciothe iria ciarĩ nyũmba-inĩ icio.
And all their wealth, and all their little ones, and their wives they took captive, and spoiled; and all that was in the house.
30 Nake Jakubu akĩĩra Simeoni na Lawi atĩrĩ, “Nĩmwandehera thĩĩna nĩ ũndũ wa gũtũma menwo nĩ Akaanani na Aperizi, andũ arĩa matũũraga bũrũri ũyũ. Ithuĩ tũrĩ anini tũgĩtarwo, na mangĩnyiitana manjũkĩrĩre na matharĩkĩre-rĩ, niĩ na nyũmba yakwa no tũniinwo.”
And Jacob said unto Simeon and Levi, Ye have troubled me, to cause me to be hated among the inhabitants of the land, among the Canaanites and the Perizzites: and as I am but few in number, they may gather themselves together against me, and slay me; and I would be destroyed, I and my house.
31 Nao makĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Nĩkũraagĩrĩire atue mwarĩ wa maitũ ta mũmaraya?”
And they said, Should he deal with our sister as with a harlot?
