1 Nake Jehova akĩarĩria Musa kũu Werũ-inĩ wa Sinai mweri-inĩ wa mbere wa mwaka wa keerĩ thuutha wa andũ a Isiraeli kuuma bũrũri wa Misiri, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ,
The Lord spoke to Moses in the desert of Sinai, the second year after they were come out of the land of Egypt, in the first month, saying:
2 “Ĩra andũ a Isiraeli makũngũyagĩre Gĩathĩ-kĩa-Bathaka ihinda rĩrĩa rĩtuĩtwo.
Let the children of Israel make the phase in its due time,
3 Kũngũyagĩrai gĩathĩ kĩu ihinda rĩrĩa rĩtuĩtwo, hwaĩ-inĩ wa mũthenya wa ikũmi na ĩna wa mweri ũyũ, kũringana na mawatho makĩo mothe na mũtabarĩre wakĩo.”
The fourteenth day of this month in the evening, according to all the ceremonies and justifications thereof.
4 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Musa akĩĩra andũ a Isiraeli makũngũĩre Gĩathĩ-kĩa-Bathaka.
And Moses commanded the children of Israel that they should make the phase.
5 Nao magĩĩka o ro ũguo kũu Werũ-inĩ wa Sinai hwaĩ-inĩ wa mũthenya wa ikũmi na ĩna wa mweri wa mbere. Andũ a Isiraeli magĩĩka maũndũ mothe o ta ũrĩa Jehova aathĩte Musa.
And they made it in its proper time: the fourteenth day of the month at evening, in mount Sinai. The children of Israel did according to all things that the Lord had commanded Moses.
6 No amwe ao matingĩakũngũĩire Gĩathĩ-kĩa-Bathaka mũthenya ũcio nĩ ũndũ nĩmagwatĩtwo nĩ thaahu nĩ ũndũ wa kũhutania na kĩimba kĩa mũndũ. Nĩ ũndũ ũcio magĩũka kũrĩ Musa na Harũni mũthenya o ro ũcio
But behold some who were unclean by occasion of the soul of a man, who could not make the phase on that day, coming to Moses and Aaron,
7 makĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ, “Nĩ tũnyiitĩtwo nĩ thaahu nĩ ũndũ wa kũhutania na kĩimba kĩa mũndũ, no nĩ kĩĩ gĩgũtũma tũgirio kũneana indo cia kũrutĩra Jehova tũrĩ hamwe na andũ a Isiraeli arĩa angĩ ihinda rĩrĩa rĩtuĩtwo?”
Said to them: We are unclean by occasion of the soul of a man. Why are we kept back that we may not offer in its season the offering to the Lord among the children of Israel?
8 Musa akĩmacookeria atĩrĩ, “Etererai nyambe nduĩrie ũhoro wa ũrĩa Jehova egwathana ũhoro wanyu.”
And Moses answered them: Stay that I may consult the Lord what he will ordain concerning you.
9 Jehova agĩcooka akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ,
And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
10 “Ĩra andũ a Isiraeli atĩrĩ: ‘Rĩrĩa mũndũ wanyu o na ũrĩkũ kana njiaro cianyu marĩ na thaahu nĩ ũndũ wa kũhutania na kĩimba kĩa mũndũ, kana akorwo arĩ rũgendo-inĩ-rĩ, mũndũ ũcio o nake no akũngũĩre Gĩathĩ-kĩa-Bathaka ya Jehova.
Say to the children of Israel: The man that shall be unclean by occasion of one that is dead, or shall be in a journey afar off in your nation, let him make the phase to the Lord.
11 Marĩkũngũyagĩra gĩathĩ kĩu hwaĩ-inĩ wa mũthenya wa ikũmi na ĩna wa mweri wa keerĩ. Marĩrĩĩaga gatũrũme na mĩgate ĩtarĩ mĩĩkĩre ndawa ya kũimbia na nyeni ndũrũ.
In the second month, on the fourteenth day of the month in the evening, they shall eat it with unleavened bread and wild lettuce:
12 Matikanatigie gacunjĩ o na kamwe karaare nginya rũciinĩ kana moine ihĩndĩ rĩako o na rĩmwe. Rĩrĩa megũkũngũĩra Gĩathĩ-kĩa-Bathaka ĩyo no nginya marũmagĩrĩre mũtabarĩre wakĩo wothe.
They shall not leave any thing thereof until morning, a nor break a bone thereof, they shall observe all the ceremonies of the phase.
13 No mũndũ angĩkorwo ndarĩ na thaahu, na ndathiĩte rũgendo, na aage gũkũngũĩra Gĩathĩ-kĩa-Bathaka, mũndũ ũcio nĩakaingatwo athengio kuuma kũrĩ andũ ao, nĩ ũndũ ndaareheire Jehova indo iria arutagĩrwo ihinda rĩrĩa rĩtuĩtwo. Mũndũ ũcio nĩagacookererwo nĩ mehia make mwene.
But if any man is clean, and was not on a journey, and did not make the phase, that soul shall be cut off from among his people, because he offered not sacrifice to the Lord in due season: he shall bear his sin.
14 “‘Mũgeni ũikaranĩtie na inyuĩ na ende gũkũngũĩra Gĩathĩ-kĩa-Bathaka ya Jehova-rĩ, no nginya eke ũguo kũringana na watho na mũtabarĩre wakĩo. No nginya mũgĩage na mĩtabarĩre ya mũthemba ũmwe kũrĩ mũgeni na kũrĩ mũndũ ũrĩa ũciarĩirwo bũrũri wanyu.’”
The sojourner also and the stranger if they be among you, shall make the phase to the Lord according to the ceremonies and justifications thereof. The same ordinance shall be with you both for the stranger, and for him that was born in the land.
15 Mũthenya ũrĩa Hema-ĩrĩa-Nyamũre, o Hema-ĩyo-ya-Ũira yaambirwo-rĩ, itu rĩkĩmĩhumbĩra. Kuuma hwaĩ-inĩ nginya rũciinĩ itu rĩu rĩarĩ igũrũ rĩa Hema-ĩyo-Nyamũre na itu rĩu rĩkoonagwo rĩhaana ta mwaki.
Now on the day that the tabernacle was reared up, a cloud covered it. But from the evening there was over the tabernacle, as it were, the appearance of fire until the morning.
16 Ũguo nĩguo gwathiire na mbere gũikara; itu rĩkamĩhumbĩra ũtukũ na rĩkoonagwo rĩhaana ta mwaki.
So it was always: by day the cloud covered it, and by night as it were the appearance of fire.
17 Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa yothe itu rĩu rĩeheraga kuuma harĩ hema ĩyo, andũ a Isiraeli makoimagara magathiĩ; na rĩrĩ, itu rĩu rĩarũgamĩra handũ, andũ a Isiraeli makaamba hema ciao ho.
And when the cloud that covered the tabernacle was taken up, then the children of Israel marched forward: and in the place where the cloud stood still, there they camped.
18 Jehova aathana-rĩ, andũ a Isiraeli makoimagara magathiĩ, na aathana rĩngĩ makaamba hema ciao. Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa yothe itu rĩu rĩaikara igũrũ rĩa Hema-ĩyo-Nyamũre, maikaraga o hau kambĩ.
At the commandment of the Lord they marched, and at his commandment they pitched the tabernacle. All the days that the cloud abode over the tabernacle, they remained in the same place:
19 Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa itu rĩaikara igũrũ rĩa Hema-ĩyo-Nyamũre kahinda karaaya-rĩ, andũ a Isiraeli magaathĩkĩra Jehova na makaaga kuumagara.
And if it was so that it continued over it a long time, the children of Israel kept the watches of the Lord, and marched not,
20 Mahinda mamwe itu rĩu rĩaikaraga igũrũ rĩa Hema-ĩyo-Nyamũre o matukũ manini; no Jehova aathana makaamba hema, na ningĩ aathana, makoimagara magathiĩ.
For as many days soever as the cloud stayed over the tabernacle. At the commandment of the Lord they pitched their tents, and at his commandment they took them down.
21 Mahinda mamwe itu rĩu rĩaikaraga o kuuma hwaĩ-inĩ nginya rũciinĩ, na itu rĩehera rũciinĩ-rĩ, makoimagara magathiĩ. Kana nĩ mũthenya kana nĩ ũtukũ, hĩndĩ o yothe itu rĩu rĩehera nao makoimagara magathiĩ.
If the cloud tarried from evening until morning, and immediately at break of day left the tabernacle, they marched forward: and if it departed after a day and a night, they took down their tents.
22 Itu rĩu rĩngĩaikarire igũrũ rĩa hema ĩyo mĩthenya ĩĩrĩ, kana mweri, kana mwaka, andũ a Isiraeli maikaraga kũu kambĩ, na matingĩoimagarire mathiĩ, no itu rĩu rĩehera makoimagara magathiĩ.
But if it remained over the tabernacle for two days or a month or a longer time, the children of Israel remained in the same place, and marched not: but immediately as soon as it departed, they removed the camp.
23 Jehova aathana makaamba hema, na ningĩ Jehova aathana makoimagara magathiĩ. Maathĩkagĩra watho wa Jehova kũringana na ũrĩa aathaga Musa.
By the word of the Lord they pitched their tents, and by his word they marched: and kept the watches of the Lord according to his commandment by the hand of Moses.
