< Kĩambĩrĩria 34 >
1 Na rĩrĩ, mũthenya ũmwe, Dina mũirĩtu ũrĩa Lea aaciarĩire Jakubu, nĩathiire gũceerera andũ-a-nja a bũrũri ũcio.
And Dinah, daughter of Leah, whom she hath borne to Jacob, goeth out to look on 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, son of Hamor the Hivite, a prince of the land, seeth her, and taketh her, and lieth with her, and humbleth her;
3 Na ngoro yake ĩkĩguucĩrĩrio nĩ Dina mwarĩ ũcio wa Jakubu, na akĩenda mũirĩtu ũcio na akĩmwarĩria wega.
and his soul cleaveth to Dinah, daughter of Jacob, and he loveth the young person, and speaketh unto the heart of the young person.
4 Nake Shekemu akĩĩra ithe Hamoru atĩrĩ, “Njarĩrĩria harĩ ithe wa mũirĩtu ũyũ atuĩke mũtumia wakwa.”
And Shechem speaketh unto Hamor his father, saying, 'Take for me this damsel for a 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 hath heard that he hath defiled Dinah his daughter, and his sons were with his cattle in the field, and Jacob kept silent till their coming.
6 Hĩndĩ ĩyo Hamoru ithe wa Shekemu agĩthiĩ kwaria na Jakubu.
And Hamor, father of Shechem, goeth out unto 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 in from the field when they heard, and the men grieve themselves, and it [is] very displeasing to them, for folly he hath done against Israel, to lie with the daughter of Jacob — and so it is not done.
8 No Hamoru akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Ngoro ya mũrũ wakwa Shekemu nĩĩguucĩrĩirio nĩ mwarĩ wanyu. Ndamũthaitha ĩtĩkĩrai amũhikie atuĩke mũtumia wake.
And Hamor speaketh with them, saying, 'Shechem, my son, his soul hath cleaved to your daughter; give her, I pray you, to him for a wife,
9 Rekei tũhikanagie; mũtũheage airĩtu anyu na inyuĩ tũkamũheaga airĩtu aitũ.
and join ye in marriage with us; your daughters ye give to us, and our daughters ye take to 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 ye dwell, and the land is before you; dwell ye and trade [in] it, and have possessions in it.'
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 saith unto her father, and unto her brethren, 'Let me find grace in your eyes, and that which ye say unto me, I 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.”
multiply on me exceedingly dowry and gift, and I give as ye say unto me, and give to me the young person for a 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 answer Shechem and Hamor his father deceitfully, and they speak (because he 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 say unto them, 'We are not able to do this thing, to give our sister to one who hath a foreskin: for it [is] a reproach to us.
15 Tũkũmwĩtĩkĩria tondũ wa gĩtũmi o kĩmwe tu; inyuĩ mũtuĩke ta ithuĩ na ũndũ wa kũruithia arũme anyu othe.
'Only for this we consent to you; if ye be as we, to have every male of you circumcised,
16 Hĩndĩ ĩyo nĩmũrĩhikagia airĩtu aitũ na nĩtũrĩhikagia airĩtu anyu. Nĩtũgũtũũrania na inyuĩ na tũtuĩke andũ amwe.
then we have given our daughters to you, and your daughters we take to ourselves, and we have dwelt with you, and have become one people;
17 No angĩkorwo mũtigwĩtĩkĩra kũrua-rĩ, tũkuoya mwarĩ witũ twĩthiĩre.”
and if ye hearken not unto us to be circumcised, then we have taken our daughter, and have gone.'
18 Ũhoro ũcio ũkĩoneka ũrĩ mwega nĩ Hamoru na mũriũ Shekemu.
And their words are good in the eyes of Hamor, and in the eyes of Shechem, Hamor's son;
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 delayed not to do the thing, for he had delight in Jacob's daughter, and he is honourable above 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 Hamor cometh — Shechem his son also — unto the gate of their city, and they speak unto 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 peaceable with us; then let them dwell in the land, and trade [in] it; and the land, lo, [is] wide before them; their daughters let us take to ourselves for wives, and our daughters give to them.
22 No andũ acio mangĩtĩkĩra gũtũũrania na ithuĩ ta rũrĩrĩ rũmwe angĩkorwo arũme aitũ othe nĩmekũrua, o ta ũrĩa o maruĩte.
'Only for this do the men consent to us, to dwell with us, to become one people, in every male of us being 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 all their beasts — are they not ours? only let us consent to them, and they 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 Hamor, and unto Shechem his son, hearken do all those going out of the gate of his city, and every male is circumcised, all those going 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 cometh to pass, on the third day, in their being pained, that two of the sons of Jacob, Simeon and Levi, Dinah's brethren, take each his sword, and come in against the city confidently, and slay every male;
26 Ningĩ makĩũraga Hamoru na mũriũ Shekemu na rũhiũ rwa njora, na makĩruta Dina nyũmba-inĩ ya Shekemu, magĩĩthiĩra.
and Hamor, and Shechem his son, they have slain by the mouth of the sword, and they take Dinah out of Shechem's house, and go out.
27 Ariũ arĩa angĩ a Jakubu magĩkinya kũu ciimba ciarĩ, na magĩĩtahĩra indo cia itũũra rĩu mwarĩ wa ithe wao aathũkĩirio.
Jacob's sons have come in upon the wounded, and they spoil 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.
their flock and their herd, and their asses, and that which [is] in the city, and that which [is] in the field, have they taken;
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 infants, and their wives they have taken captive, and they spoil also all that [is] 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 saith unto Simeon and unto Levi, 'Ye have troubled me, by causing me to stink among the inhabitants of the land, among the Canaanite, and among the Perizzite: and I [am] few in number, and they have been gathered against me, and have smitten me, and I have been destroyed, I and my house.'
31 Nao makĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Nĩkũraagĩrĩire atue mwarĩ wa maitũ ta mũmaraya?”
And they say, 'As a harlot doth he make our sister?'
