< Joshua 2 >

1 Nake Joshua mũrũ wa Nuni agĩtũma athigaani eerĩ kuuma Shitimu na hitho; akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Thiĩi mũbaare bũrũri ũcio, na makĩria Jeriko.” Nĩ ũndũ ũcio magĩthiĩ, magĩtoonya nyũmba ya mũmaraya wetagwo Rahabu, magĩikara kuo.
Therfor Josue, the sone of Nun, sente fro Sethym twei men, aspieris in hiddlis, and seide to hem, Go ye, and biholde ye the lond, and the citee of Jerico. Whiche yeden, and entriden into the hous of a womman hoore, `Raab bi name, and restiden at hir.
2 Nake mũthamaki wa Jeriko akĩĩrwo atĩrĩ, “Nĩ kũrĩ andũ amwe a Isiraeli mokire gũkũ ũtukũ ũyũ gũthigaana bũrũri ũyũ ũrĩa ũhaana.”
And it was teld, `and seid to the kyng of Jerico, Lo! men of the sones of Israel entriden hidir bi nyyt, to aspie the lond.
3 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio mũthamaki wa Jeriko agĩtũmana kũrĩ Rahabu, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Andũ acio mokire gwaku nyũmba marutũrũre na nja, tondũ mokĩte gũthigaana bũrũri ũyũ wothe.”
Therfor the kyng of Jerico sente to Raab the hoore, and seide, Brynge out the men, that camen to thee, and entriden in to thin hous; for thei ben aspieris, and thei camen to biholde al the lond.
4 No rĩrĩ, mũndũ-wa-nja ũcio nĩarĩkĩtie kuoya andũ acio eerĩ na akamahitha. Nake akiuga atĩrĩ, “Ĩĩ nĩguo, andũ acio nĩmegũkĩte gwakwa, no ndinamenya kũrĩa mekuumĩte.
And the womman took the men, and hidde hem, and seide, Y knowleche, thei camen to me, but Y wiste not of whenus thei weren;
5 Hwaĩ-inĩ rĩrĩa kĩhingo gĩa itũũra inene kĩhingagwo-rĩ, andũ acio nĩmathiire. Ndinamenya na kũrĩa mathiire. Marũmĩrĩrei na ihenya. Mwahota kũmakinyĩra.”
and whanne the yate was closid in derknessis, and thei yeden out to gidire, Y noot whidur thei yeden; pursue ye soone, and ye schulen take hem.
6 (No rĩrĩ, nĩamatwarĩte nyũmba igũrũ, na akamahitha rungu rwa ũguta ũrĩa aarĩte kũu nyũmba igũrũ).
Forsothe sche made the men to stie in to the soler of hir hows, and hilide hem with stobil of flex, that was there.
7 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio andũ acio maatũmĩtwo nĩ mũthamaki makiumagara, makĩmarũmĩrĩra na njĩra ĩrĩa ĩthiiaga mariũko-inĩ ma Rũũĩ rwa Jorodani, na rĩrĩa andũ acio mamarũmĩrĩire moimire na nja o ũguo-rĩ, kĩhingo gĩkĩhingwo.
Sotheli thei, that weren sent, sueden hem bi the weie that ledith to the fordis of Jordan; and whanne thei weren goon out, anoon the yate was closid.
8 Athigaani acio eerĩ matanakoma, mũndũ-wa-nja ũcio akĩambata kũu nyũmba igũrũ,
Thei that weren hid, slepten not yit, and lo! the womman stiede to hem, and seide,
9 na akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Nĩnjũũĩ atĩ Jehova nĩamũheete bũrũri ũyũ, na atĩ nĩtũnyiitĩtwo nĩ guoya mũnene nĩ ũndũ wanyu, o nginya ithuothe andũ arĩa tũtũũraga bũrũri ũyũ tũkaiyũrwo nĩ maaĩ nda nĩ ũndũ wanyu.
Y knowe that the Lord hath bitake to you this lond; for youre feerdfulnesse felde in to vs, and alle the dwelleris of the lond `weren sike.
10 Nĩtũiguĩte ũrĩa Jehova aahũithirie maaĩ ma Iria Itune nĩ ũndũ wanyu rĩrĩa mwoimire bũrũri wa Misiri, na ũrĩa mwekire Sihoni na Ogu, athamaki arĩa eerĩ a Aamori o kũu mwena wa irathĩro wa Rũũĩ rwa Jorodani, arĩa mwaninire biũ.
We herden, that the Lord driede the watris of the Reed See at youre entryng, whanne ye yeden out of Egipt; and what thingis ye diden to twei kyngis of Ammorreis, that weren biyende Jordan, to Seon and Og, whiche ye killiden;
11 Rĩrĩa twaiguire ũhoro ũcio, ngoro ciitũ nĩciaringĩkire na ũmĩrĩru wa mũndũ o mũndũ akĩũrwo nĩ hinya nĩ ũndũ wanyu, nĩgũkorwo Jehova Ngai wanyu nĩwe Ngai wa kũu igũrũ o na wa gũkũ thĩ.
and we herden these thingis, and we dredden, and oure herte `was sike, and spirit dwellide not in vs at youre entryng; for youre Lord God hym silf is God in heuene aboue, and in erthe bynethe.
12 Na rĩrĩ, ndamũthaitha mwĩhĩte na mwĩhĩtwa mũkĩgwetaga rĩĩtwa rĩa Jehova atĩ nĩmũkaiguĩra andũ a nyũmba iitũ tha, na mũmĩĩke wega, tondũ o na niĩ nĩndamũiguĩra tha na ndamwĩka wega. Na mũnyonie ũndũ ũcio na kĩmenyithia kĩa ma
Now therfor swere ye to me bi the Lord God, that as Y dide merci with you, so and ye do with the hows of my fadir; and yyue ye to me a veri signe,
13 kĩa atĩ nĩmũkahonokia baba na maitũ, na ariũ a baba o na aarĩ a baba, na andũ ao othe ciana ciao ciothe, na atĩ nĩmũgatũhonokia kuuma harĩ gĩkuũ.”
that ye saue my fadir and modir, and my britheren and sistris, and alle thingis that ben herne, and dilyuere oure lyues fro deeth.
14 Nao andũ acio makĩmũmĩrĩria, makĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Ithuĩ tũrokua tũngĩkaaga kũhonokia mĩoyo yanyu! Waga kuuga ũrĩa tũreeka, nĩtũkaamwĩka maũndũ ma ũtugi na ma kĩhooto rĩrĩa Jehova agaatũhe bũrũri ũyũ.”
Whiche answeriden to hir, Oure lijf be for you in to deeth, if netheles thou bitraiest not vs; and whanne the Lord hath bitake to vs the lond, we schulen do mercy and treuthe in thee.
15 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio akĩmaikũrũkia na mũkanda, akĩmoimĩria ndirica tondũ nyũmba ĩrĩa aikaraga yaakĩtwo rũthingo-inĩ rwa itũũra rĩu inene.
Therfor sche let hem doun fro the wyndow bi a corde; for hir hows cleuyde to the wal.
16 Na rĩrĩ, nĩameerĩte atĩrĩ, “Thiĩi kũrĩa irĩma-inĩ nĩgeetha andũ acio mamũrũmĩrĩire matikamuone. Mwĩhithei kũu mĩthenya ĩtatũ o nginya makorwo macookete, mũcooke mwĩthiĩre.”
And sche seide to hem, Stie ye to the hilli places, lest perauenture men turnynge ayen meete you; and be ye hidde there three daies, til thei comen ayen; and so ye schulen go bi youre weie.
17 Nao andũ acio makĩĩra mũndũ-wa-nja ũcio atĩrĩ, “Mwĩhĩtwa ũyũ watwĩhĩtithia ndũgatũcookerera kana ũtwĩke ũũru,
Whiche seiden to hir, We schulen be giltles of this ooth, bi which thou hast chargid vs,
18 o tiga wĩkire ũũ: rĩrĩa tũgaatoonya bũrũri ũyũ-rĩ, ũgaakorwo wohereire rũrigi rũrũ rũtune ndirica-inĩ o ĩno watũharũrũkĩria, nawe ũkorwo ũrehete thoguo na nyũkwa, na ariũ a thoguo, na andũ anyu othe gũkũ gwaku nyũmba.
if, whanne we entren in to the lond, this reed corde is not a signe, and thou byndist it not in the wyndow, bi which thou lettist vs doun; and thou gaderist not in to thi hows thi fadir and modir, and britheren, and al thi kynrede; the blood of hym schal be on his heed,
19 Mũndũ o wothe ũkoima nja ya nyũmba yaku athiĩ na kũu barabara-inĩ-rĩ, thakame yake ĩkamũcookerera we mwene; no ithuĩ tũtigacookererwo nĩ ũũru nĩ ũndũ wake. No ũhoro wa mũndũ o wothe ũgaakorwo nyũmba hamwe nawe, thakame yake nĩĩgatũcookerera angĩgeekwo ũũru nĩ guoko kwa mũndũ o na ũrĩkũ.
that goith out at the dore of thin hows, and we schulen be alien, that is, giltles; forsothe the blood of alle men that ben in the hows with thee, schal turne in to oure heed, if ony man touchith hem.
20 No rĩrĩ ũngĩaria ũhoro ũyũ witũ twĩ naguo, tũtigacookererwo nĩ ũũru ũkoniĩ mwĩhĩtwa ũrĩa watwĩhĩtithia.”
`That if thou wolt betraie vs, and brynge forth in to the myddis this word, we schulen be cleene of this ooth, bi which thou hast chargid vs.
21 Nake agĩcookia, akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Nĩndetĩkĩra; nĩgũtuĩke o ta ũguo mwoiga.” Nĩ ũndũ ũcio agĩkĩmoigĩra ũhoro, nao magĩthiĩ. Na akĩoherera rũrigi rũu rũtune hau ndirica-inĩ.
And sche answeride, As ye han spoke, so be it doon. And sche lefte hem, that thei schulden go, and sche hangide a reed corde in her wyndow.
22 Maarĩkia kuumagara-rĩ, magĩthiĩ irĩma-inĩ na magĩikara kuo mĩthenya ĩtatũ, nginya rĩrĩa andũ arĩa maamarũmĩrĩire maahũndũkire. Andũ acio maamacarĩtie kũu njĩra-inĩ ĩyo yothe kũrĩa maathiĩrĩire, no matiigana kũmona.
Sotheli thei yeden, and camen to the hilli places, and dwelliden there three daies, til thei turneden ayen that pursueden; for thei souyten bi ech weie, and founden not hem.
23 Thuutha wa ũguo Hĩndĩ ĩyo nao andũ acio eerĩ makĩambĩrĩria gũcooka. Magĩikũrũka moimĩte na irĩma-inĩ, makĩringa Rũũĩ rwa Jorodani, magĩkinya harĩ Joshua mũrũ wa Nuni, na makĩmũhe ũhoro wa maũndũ marĩa mothe maamakorete.
And whanne the sekeris entriden in to the citee, the spieris turneden ayen, and camen doun fro the hille; and whanne thei hadde passid Jordan, thei camen to Josue, the sone of Nun;
24 Makĩĩra Joshua atĩrĩ, “Ti-itherũ Jehova nĩatũheete bũrũri ũcio wothe, akaũneana moko-inĩ maitũ; andũ othe a kũu nĩmaiyũrĩtwo nĩ guoya mũnene nĩ ũndũ witũ.”
and thei telden to hym alle thingis that bifelden to hem, and seiden, The Lord hath bitake al the lond in to oure hondis, and alle the dwelleris thereof ben casten doun bi drede.
