And it will be just as it has come on you every word good which he spoke Yahweh God your to you so he will bring Yahweh on you every word bad until has destroyed he you from on the land good this which he has given to you Yahweh God your.
16 Mũngĩthũkia kĩrĩkanĩro kĩa Jehova Ngai wanyu kĩrĩa aamwathire mũrũmagĩrĩre, na mũcooke gũtungatagĩra ngai ingĩ na mũgaciinamĩrĩra-rĩ, marakara ma Jehova nĩmakamũrĩrĩmbũkĩra, na inyuĩ nĩmũgakua narua mũthire bũrũri ũyũ mwega amũheete.”
