Malaki 2
1 “Na rĩrĩ, rĩathani rĩrĩ nĩ rĩanyu, inyuĩ athĩnjĩri-Ngai.”
And now [is] to you the commandment this O priests.
2 Jehova Mwene-Hinya-Wothe ekuuga atĩrĩ, “Mũngĩaga gũũthikĩrĩria na mwage gũtua itua na ngoro cianyu gũtĩĩa rĩĩtwa rĩakwa-rĩ, niĩ nĩngamũtũmĩra kĩrumi o na irathimo iria ndĩmũrathimaga nacio ndĩcirume. Ĩĩ, o na rĩu nĩndĩcirumĩte, tondũ mũtituĩte itua na ngoro cianyu kũndĩĩa.
If not you will listen and if not you will put on heart to give honor to name my he says Yahweh of hosts and I will send on you the curse and I will curse blessings your and also I have cursed it for not you [are] putting on heart.
3 “Nĩngarũithia njiaro cianyu nĩ ũndũ wanyu; nĩngamũminjĩria taatha wa nyamũ cia magongona ma ciathĩ cianyu na mũgaatahwo mũrĩ o naguo.
Here I [am] about to rebuke of you the offspring and I will spread dung on faces your [the] dung of festivals your and someone will carry away you with it.
4 Na nĩmũkamenya atĩ nĩ niĩ ndĩmũtũmĩire rĩathani rĩrĩ, nĩgeetha kĩrĩkanĩro gĩakwa na Lawi gĩtũũre kĩrũmĩte,” ũguo nĩguo Jehova Mwene-Hinya-Wothe ekuuga.
And you will know that I have sent to you the commandment this to be covenant my with Levi he says Yahweh of hosts.
5 “Kĩrĩkanĩro gĩakwa kĩarĩ giitũ nake, nakĩo kĩarĩ kĩrĩkanĩro kĩa muoyo na gĩa thayũ, na niĩ ngĩmũhe cio; ũndũ ũcio warĩ wa gũtũma eĩndigĩre, nake akĩndĩĩa na agĩtũũra etigĩrĩte rĩĩtwa rĩakwa.
Covenant my - it was with him life and well-being and I gave them to him fear and he feared me and because of name my he was in awe he.
6 Ũrutani wa ma warĩ kanua-inĩ gake, na gũtirĩ maheeni moonirwo mĩromo-inĩ yake. Aatwaranire na niĩ na thayũ na mĩthiĩre mĩrũngĩrĩru, na akĩgarũra andũ aingĩ moime mehia-inĩ.
Instruction of truth it was in mouth his and unrighteousness not it was found on lips his in peace and in uprightness he walked with me and many [people] he turned away from iniquity.
7 “Tondũ mĩromo ya mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai yagĩrĩirwo nĩgũtũũria ũũgĩ, nao andũ magĩrĩirwo nĩgũcaria ũrutani kuuma kanua gake tondũ nĩwe mũtũmwo wa Jehova Mwene-Hinya-Wothe.
For [the] lips of a priest they will preserve knowledge and instruction people will seek from mouth his for [is] [the] messenger of Yahweh of hosts he.
8 No inyuĩ nĩmũgarũrũkĩte mũgatiga njĩra, naguo ũrutani wanyu ũgatũma andũ aingĩ mahĩngwo; nĩmũthũkĩtie kĩrĩkanĩro giitũ na Lawi,” ũguo nĩguo Jehova Mwene-Hinya-Wothe ekuuga.
And you you have turned aside from the way you have caused to stumble many [people] by the instruction you have corrupted [the] covenant of Levi he says Yahweh of hosts.
9 “Nĩ ũndũ ũcio-rĩ, nĩndũmĩte mũmenwo na mũconorithio mbere ya andũ othe, tondũ mũtirũmagĩrĩra njĩra ciakwa no nĩmũthuuranagia andũ mũgĩtua ciira.”
And also I I have made you despised and lowly to all the people according to [the] mouth of that not you [are] keeping ways my and [you are] lifting up faces in instruction.
10 Githĩ ithuothe tũtirĩ a ithe ũmwe? Githĩ ti Ngai ũmwe watũũmbire? Nĩ kĩĩ gĩgũtũma tũthaahie kĩrĩkanĩro kĩa maithe maitũ na ũndũ wa kwaga kwĩhokana mũndũ na ũrĩa ũngĩ?
¿ Not [does] a father one [belong] to all of us ¿ not God one did he create us why? do we deal treacherously each with brother his to profane [the] covenant of ancestors our.
11 Andũ a Juda nĩmatigĩte gũtuĩka ehokeku. Ũndũ wa magigi nĩwĩkĩtwo Isiraeli na Jerusalemu: Andũ a Juda nĩmathaahĩtie handũ harĩa hatheru harĩa Jehova endete, nĩ ũndũ wa kũhikia airĩtu a andũ arĩa mahooyaga ngai ngʼeni.
It has acted treacherously Judah and an abomination it has been done in Israel and in Jerusalem for - it has profaned Judah [the] sanctuary of Yahweh which he loves and it has married a daughter of a god of foreignness.
12 Mũndũ o wothe wĩkaga ũguo-rĩ, arĩ ũ kana ũ, Jehova aromweheria hema-inĩ cia Jakubu, o na angĩkorwo nĩarehage maruta make kũrĩ Jehova Mwene-Hinya-Wothe.
May he cut off Yahweh the person who he does it a protector and [one who] answers from [the] tents of Jacob and [one who] brings near an offering to Yahweh of hosts.
13 Kũrĩ ũndũ ũngĩ mwĩkaga. Mũiyũragia kĩgongona kĩa Jehova na maithori. Mũrĩraga na mũkagirĩka tondũ nĩatigire kũrũmbũiya maruta manyu, kana kũmaamũkĩra na gĩkeno kuuma harĩ inyuĩ.
And this second [thing] you do to cover tear[s] [the] altar of Yahweh weeping and groaning from not still turning to the offering and to take pleasure from hand your.
14 Mũũragia atĩrĩ, “Nĩ kĩĩ gĩtũmi?” Nĩ tondũ Jehova nĩwe mũira gatagatĩ gaku na mũtumia wa ũnini waku, tondũ ndũrĩ mwĩhokeku harĩ we, o na gũtuĩka nĩwe mũrata waku, o we mũtumia wa kĩrĩkanĩro kĩa ũhiki waku.
And you say concerning what? on for Yahweh he has testified between you and between - [the] wife of youth your whom you you have dealt treacherously with her and she [was] companion your and [the] wife of covenant your.
15 Githĩ Jehova ndamatuĩte ũmwe? Matuĩkĩte ake mwĩrĩ na roho. Amatuĩte ũmwe nĩkĩ? Tondũ nĩacaragia rũciaro rwa etigĩri Ngai. Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, gitagĩra roho waku, na ũtũũre ũrĩ mwĩhokeku kũrĩ mũtumia ũcio wa ũnini waku.
And not one he made and a remnant of spirit to him and what? [was] the one seeking offspring of God and you will take heed in spirit your and with [the] wife of youth your may not anyone deal treacherously.
16 Jehova Ngai wa Isiraeli ekuuga atĩrĩ, “Nĩthũire ndigano ya mũthuuri na mũtumia wake, na nĩthũire mũndũ wĩhumbaga haaro ta nguo,” ũguo nĩguo Jehova Mwene-Hinya-Wothe ekuuga. Nĩ ũndũ ũcio gitĩra roho waku, na ndũkaage kwĩhokeka.
For he hates sending away he says Yahweh [the] God of Israel and he will cover violence over clothing his he says Yahweh of hosts and you will take heed in spirit your and not you must act treacherously.
17 Inyuĩ nĩmũnogetie Jehova na ciugo cianyu. No mũrooria atĩrĩ, “Tũmũnogetie atĩa?” Mũmũnogetie na kuuga atĩrĩ, “Othe arĩa mekaga ũũru nĩmagĩrĩire maitho-inĩ ma Jehova, na nĩakenagio nĩo.” Ningĩ mũkooria atĩrĩ, “Ngai wa kĩhooto-rĩ, akĩrĩ ha?”
You have wearied Yahweh with words your and you say how? did we weary [him] by saying you every [one who] does evil [is] good - in [the] eyes of Yahweh and in them he he delights or where? [is] [the] God of justice.
