28 “Andũ arĩa angĩ, nĩo athĩnjĩri-Ngai, na Alawii, na aikaria a ihingo, na aini, o na ndungata cia hekarũ na arĩa othe meyamũranĩtie na andũ arĩa maariganĩtie nao nĩguo maathĩkĩre Watho wa Ngai, marĩ hamwe na atumia ao, na aanake, na airĩtu ao othe arĩa mangĩhota gũtaũkĩrwo nĩ maũndũ,
The rest of the people, the priests, the Levites, the gatekeepers, the singers, the Nethinim, and all those who had separated themselves from the peoples of the lands to the law of God, their wives, their sons, and their daughters, everyone who had knowledge, and understanding—
29 andũ aya othe maanyiitana na ariũ a ithe wao arĩa marĩ igweta, na meeohe na kĩrumi na mwĩhĩtwa atĩ nĩmarĩrũmagĩrĩra Watho wa Ngai ũrĩa waheirwo Musa ndungata ya Ngai, na mamenyagĩrĩre gwathĩkĩra maathani mothe, na mawatho, na kĩrĩra gĩa kũrũmĩrĩrwo kĩa Jehova Mwathani witũ.
they joined with their brothers, their nobles, and entered into a curse, and into an oath, to walk in God's law, which was given by Moses the servant of God, and to observe and do all the commandments of the LORD, and his ordinances and his statutes;
30 “Tweranĩra atĩ tũtikaheana airĩtu aitũ mahikio nĩ andũ arĩa matũrigiicĩirie o na kana aanake aitũ mahikie airĩtu ao.
and that we would not give our daughters to the peoples of the land, nor take their daughters for our sons;
31 “Rĩrĩa andũ a mabũrũri marĩa tũriganĩtie marĩrehaga indo na ngano ya kwendia mũthenya wa Thabatũ, tũtikamagũrĩra mũthenya ũcio wa Thabatũ o na kana mũthenya ũngĩ o wothe mwamũre. O mwaka wa mũgwanja wakinya tũtirĩrĩmaga mĩgũnda iitũ, na nĩtũrĩĩrekanagĩra mathiirĩ mothe.
and if the peoples of the land bring wares or any grain on the Sabbath day to sell, that we would not buy of them on the Sabbath, or on a holy day; and that we would forego the seventh year, and the exaction of every debt.
32 “Nĩtuoya mũrigo wa kũhingia mawatho ma kũheanaga gĩcunjĩ gĩa gatatũ gĩa cekeri o mwaka nĩ ũndũ wa wĩra wa nyũmba ya Ngai witũ:
Also we made ordinances for ourselves, to charge ourselves yearly with the third part of a shekel for the service of the house of our God;
33 nĩ ũndũ wa mĩgate ĩrĩa ĩigagwo metha-inĩ; nĩ ũndũ wa mahinda ma maruta ma mũtu na ma njino; na nĩ ũndũ wa maruta marĩa marutagwo mũthenya wa Thabatũ, na wa ciathĩ cia Karũgamo ka Mweri, na wa ciathĩ iria ciathanĩtwo; nĩ ũndũ wa maruta marĩa maamũre; nĩ ũndũ wa maruta ma kũhoroheria mehia ma Isiraeli; o na nĩ ũndũ wa mawĩra mothe ma nyũmba ya Ngai witũ.
for the show bread, and for the continual meal offering, and for the continual burnt offering, for the Sabbaths, for the new moons, for the set feasts, and for the holy things, and for the sin offerings to make atonement for Israel, and for all the work of the house of our God.
34 “Ithuĩ athĩnjĩri-Ngai, na Alawii o na andũ aya angĩ nĩtũcuukĩte mĩtĩ tũgatuanĩra rĩrĩa o nyũmba iitũ ĩrĩĩrehaga ngũ nyũmba-inĩ ya Ngai witũ, cia gũikaragia mwaki wakanĩte kĩgongona-inĩ kĩa Jehova Ngai witũ mahinda marĩa matuanĩirwo o mwaka, o ta ũrĩa kwandĩkĩtwo Watho-inĩ.
We cast lots, the priests, the Levites, and the people, for the wood offering, to bring it into the house of our God, according to our fathers' houses, at times appointed, year by year, to burn on the altar of the LORD our God, as it is written in the law;
35 “O na nĩtuoya mũrigo wa kũrehaga maciaro ma mbere ma mĩgũnda iitũ na ma mũtĩ o wothe wa matunda nyũmba-inĩ ya Jehova o mwaka.
and to bring the first fruits of our ground, and the first fruits of all fruit of all kinds of trees, year by year, to the house of the LORD;
36 “O ta ũrĩa kwandĩkĩtwo Watho-inĩ, nĩtũrĩĩrehaga marigithathi maitũ ma aanake, na ma ngʼombe, na ma ndũũru cia ngʼombe na cia mbũri ciitũ gũkũ nyũmba-inĩ ya Ngai witũ kũrĩ athĩnjĩri-Ngai arĩa matungataga kuo.
also the firstborn of our sons, and of our livestock, as it is written in the law, and the firstborn of our herds and of our flocks, to bring to the house of our God, to the priests who minister in the house of our God;
37 “O na ningĩ nĩtũrĩĩrehaga thĩinĩ wa makũmbĩ ma nyũmba ya Ngai, tũnengere athĩnjĩri-Ngai mũtu wa mbere, na magongona maitũ ma ngano ma mbere, na maruta ma matunda ma mĩtĩ iitũ yothe ma mbere, na ma ndibei iitũ ya mũhihano o na ma maguta. O na nĩtũrĩĩrehaga gĩcunjĩ gĩa ikũmi kĩa maciaro ma mĩgũnda iitũ, tũkanengera Alawii, nĩgũkorwo nĩ Alawii maamũkagĩra icunjĩ cia ikũmi kuuma matũũra mothe kũrĩa tũrutaga wĩra.
and that we should bring the first fruits of our coarse meal, our contributions, the fruit of every tree, the new wine and the oil to the priests to the storerooms of the house of our God; and the tithes of our land to the Levites, for the Levites take the tithes in all the cities where we work.
38 Mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai wa rũciaro rwa Harũni nĩarĩkoragwo ho Alawii makĩamũkĩra gĩcunjĩ kĩu gĩa ikũmi, nao Alawii nĩmarĩĩrehaga gĩcunjĩ gĩa ikũmi kĩa indo ciothe makũmbĩ-inĩ ma kĩgĩĩna kĩa nyũmba ya Ngai witũ.
The priest the son of Aaron shall be with the Levites, when the Levites take tithes: and the Levites shall bring up the tithe of the tithes to the house of our God, to the rooms, into the treasure house.
39 Andũ a Isiraeli, hamwe na Alawii, nĩmarĩĩrehaga maruta mao ma ngano, na ndibei ya mũhihano, na maguta thĩinĩ wa makũmbĩ marĩa indo cia handũ-harĩa-haamũre ciigagwo, na kũrĩa athĩnjĩri-Ngai, arĩa maratungata, na aikaria a ihingo, na aini maikaraga. “Tũtirĩrekagĩrĩria nyũmba ya Ngai witũ.”
For the children of Israel and the descendants of Levi shall bring the wave offering of the grain, of the new wine, and of the oil, to the rooms, where are the vessels of the sanctuary, and the priests who minister, and the gatekeepers, and the singers. We will not forsake the house of our God.
