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,
And the rest of the people, the priests, the Levites, the gatekeepers, the singers, the Nethinim, and every one who hath been separated from the peoples of the lands unto the law of God, their wives, their sons, and their daughters, every knowing intelligent one,
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.
are laying hold on their brethren, their honourable ones, and coming in to an execration, and in to an oath, to walk in the law of God, that was given by the hand of Moses, servant of God, and to observe and to do all the commands of Jehovah our Lord, and His judgments, 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 give not our daughters to the peoples of the land, and their daughters we take not to 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 the peoples of the land who are bringing in the wares and any corn on the sabbath-day to sell, we receive not of them on the sabbath, and on a holy day, and we leave the seventh year, and usury on every hand.
32 “Nĩtuoya mũrigo wa kũhingia mawatho ma kũheanaga gĩcunjĩ gĩa gatatũ gĩa cekeri o mwaka nĩ ũndũ wa wĩra wa nyũmba ya Ngai witũ:
And we have appointed for ourselves commands, to put on ourselves the third of a shekel in a year, 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 bread of the arrangement, and the continual present, and the continual burnt-offering of the sabbaths, of the new moons, for appointed seasons, and for holy things, and for sin-offerings, to make atonement for Israel, even 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.
And the lots we have caused to fall for the offering of wood, [among] the priests, the Levites, and the people, to bring in to the house of our God, by the house of our fathers, at times appointed, year by year, to burn on the altar of Jehovah 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 in the first fruits of our ground, and the first fruits of all fruit of every tree, year by year, to the house of Jehovah,
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.
and the firstlings of our sons, and of our cattle, as it is written in the law, and the firstlings of our herds and our flocks, to bring in to the house of our God, to the priests who are ministering 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 the beginning of our dough, and our heave-offerings, and the fruit of every tree, of new wine, and of oil, we bring in to the priests, unto the chambers of the house of our God, and the tithe of our ground to the Levites; and they — the Levites — have the tithes in all the cities of our tillage;
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.
and the priest, son of Aaron, hath been with the Levites in the tithing of the Levites, and the Levites bring up the tithe of the tithe to the house of our God unto the chambers, to 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 unto the chambers do they bring in — the sons of Israel and the sons of Levi — the heave-offering of the corn, the new wine, and the oil, and there [are] vessels of the sanctuary, and the priests, those ministering, and the gatekeepers, and the singers, and we do not forsake the house of our God.
