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,
And Yahweh spake unto Moses in the desert of Sinai, in the second year by their coming forth 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 sons of Israel therefore, keep the passover in its appointed season:
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.”
on the fourteenth day of this month between the two evenings, shall ye keep it, in its appointed season, —according to all the statute thereof and according to all the regulations thereof, shall ye keep it.
4 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Musa akĩĩra andũ a Isiraeli makũngũĩre Gĩathĩ-kĩa-Bathaka.
Then spake Moses unto the sons of Israel that they should keep the passover.
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.
So they kept the passover in the first [month], on the fourteenth day of the month between the two evenings, in the desert of Sinai, —according to all that Yahweh commanded Moses, so, did the sons of Israel.
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 so it was that there were, certain men who had become unclean by a dead person, and could not keep the passover on that day, —therefore came they near before Moses and before Aaron on that day.
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?”
Then said those men unto him, We, are unclean by a dead person, —wherefore should we become of less esteem for want of offering the oblation of Yahweh in its appointed season, in the midst of the sons of Israel?
8 Musa akĩmacookeria atĩrĩ, “Etererai nyambe nduĩrie ũhoro wa ũrĩa Jehova egwathana ũhoro wanyu.”
And Moses said unto them, —Stay, and let me hear, what Yahweh shall command concerning you!
9 Jehova agĩcooka akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ,
Then spake Yahweh unto 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.
Speak unto the sons of Israel, saying, —Though, any man, be unclean by a dead person or be on a journey afar off, whether in the case of yourselves or of your generations, yet shall he keep a passover unto Yahweh.
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 between the two evenings, shall they keep it, —with unleavened cakes and bitter herbs, shall they eat it.
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 thereof until morning, and no bone, shall they break therein—according to all the statutes of the passover, shall they keep it.
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 as for the man who is, clean, and no a journey, doth not chance to be and yet faileth to keep the passover, that person shall he cut off from among his kinsfolk, —for the oblation of Yahweh, hath he not offered in its appointed season, his own sin, shall, that man, bear.
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.’”
When moreover there may sojourn with you a sojourner, who would keep a passover unto Yahweh, according to the statute of the passover, and according to the regulation thereof, so, must he keep [it], —one statute, shall there be for you, both for the sojourner and for the native of 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 the habitation was reared, the cloud covered the habitation, even the tent of the testimony, —and in the evening, it was over the habitation, like an appearance of fire, until morning,
16 Ũguo nĩguo gwathiire na mbere gũikara; itu rĩkamĩhumbĩra ũtukũ na rĩkoonagwo rĩhaana ta mwaki.
Thus, came it to pass continually, the cloud, covered it, —and an appearance of fire, by night;
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.
but at the bidding of the upgoings of the cloud from off the tent, then, after that, the sons of Israel set forward, —and in the place where the cloud abode, there the sons of Israel encamped:
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 bidding of Yahweh, the sons of Israel set forward, and at the bidding of Yahweh, they encamped, —all the days that the cloud abode upon the habitation, they remained encamped.
19 Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa itu rĩaikara igũrũ rĩa Hema-ĩyo-Nyamũre kahinda karaaya-rĩ, andũ a Isiraeli magaathĩkĩra Jehova na makaaga kuumagara.
And when the cloud lengthened out its stay upon the habitation, many days, then would the sons of Israel keep the watch of Yahweh, and would not set forward.
20 Mahinda mamwe itu rĩu rĩaikaraga igũrũ rĩa Hema-ĩyo-Nyamũre o matukũ manini; no Jehova aathana makaamba hema, na ningĩ aathana, makoimagara magathiĩ.
And, so it was, when the cloud would be a few days upon the habitation, at the bidding of Yahweh, they remained encamped, and at the bidding of Yahweh, they set forward.
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.
And, so it was, when the cloud would be from evening until morning, as soon as the cloud went up in the morning, so soon did they set forward: whether by day or by night, as soon as the cloud went up, so soon did they set forward.
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.
Whether for two days or a month or a year, the cloud lengthened out its stay upon the habitation abiding thereupon, the sons of Israel remained encamped and set not forward, —but at the upgoings thereof, they set forward.
23 Jehova aathana makaamba hema, na ningĩ Jehova aathana makoimagara magathiĩ. Maathĩkagĩra watho wa Jehova kũringana na ũrĩa aathaga Musa.
At the bidding of Yahweh, they encamped, and at the bidding of Yahweh, they set forward, —the watch of Yahweh, they kept, at the bidding of Yahweh by the hand of Moses.
