< Deuteronomy 26 >

1 It shall be, when you have come in to the land which Yahweh your God gives you for an inheritance, possess it, and dwell in it,
Rĩrĩa ũgaatoonya bũrũri ũrĩa Jehova Ngai waku egũkũhe ũrĩ igai, na ũwĩgwatĩre na ũtũũre kuo,
2 that you shall take some of the first of all the fruit of the ground, which you shall bring in from your land that Yahweh your God gives you. You shall put it in a basket, and shall go to the place which Yahweh your God shall choose to cause his name to dwell there.
nĩũkoya maciaro mamwe ma mbere ma kĩrĩa gĩothe ũgaakũria tĩĩri-inĩ wa bũrũri ũcio Jehova Ngai arakũhe na ũmekĩre kĩondo. Ũcooke ũthiĩ handũ harĩa Jehova Ngai waku agaathuura ha gũtũũria Rĩĩtwa rĩake,
3 You shall come to the priest who shall be in those days, and tell him, “I profess today to Yahweh your God, that I have come to the land which Yahweh swore to our fathers to give us.”
wĩre mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai ũrĩa ũrĩ wĩra-inĩ hĩndĩ ĩyo atĩrĩ, “Nĩndoiga ũmũthĩ ndĩ mbere ya Jehova Ngai wakwa atĩ nĩndĩkĩtie gũkinya bũrũri ũrĩa Jehova eerĩire maithe maitũ ma tene na mwĩhĩtwa atĩ nĩagatũhe.”
4 The priest shall take the basket out of your hand, and set it down before Yahweh your God’s altar.
Nake mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai ũcio nĩakamũkĩra kĩondo kĩu kuuma moko-inĩ maku, akĩige hau mbere ya kĩgongona kĩa Jehova Ngai waku.
5 You shall answer and say before Yahweh your God, “My father was a Syrian ready to perish. He went down into Egypt, and lived there, few in number. There he became a great, mighty, and populous nation.
Ningĩ nĩũkoiga ũrĩ hau mbere ya Jehova Ngai waku atĩrĩ: “Baba aarĩ Mũsuriata watũũraga orũũraga, nake agĩikũrũka agĩthiĩ bũrũri wa Misiri marĩ na andũ mataarĩ aingĩ, nao magĩtũũra kuo na magĩtuĩka rũrĩrĩ rũnene rũrĩ hinya na rwa andũ aingĩ.
6 The Egyptians mistreated us, afflicted us, and imposed hard labor on us.
No andũ a Misiri nĩmatũnyamaririe na magĩtũma tũthĩĩnĩke, na magĩtũrutithia wĩra wa hinya.
7 Then we cried to Yahweh, the God of our fathers. Yahweh heard our voice, and saw our affliction, our toil, and our oppression.
Hĩndĩ ĩyo tũgĩkaĩra Jehova, o we Ngai wa maithe maitũ, nake Jehova akĩigua mũgambo witũ, na akĩona mĩtangĩko iitũ, na wĩra mũritũ na ũrĩa twahiinyagĩrĩrio.
8 Yahweh brought us out of Egypt with a mighty hand, with an outstretched arm, with great terror, with signs, and with wonders;
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Jehova agĩtũruta bũrũri wa Misiri na guoko gwake kwa hinya, na gũtambũrũkĩtio, akĩhũthĩra maũndũ manene ma kũmakania, na akĩringa ciama, o na agĩĩka maũndũ ma magegania.
9 and he has brought us into this place, and has given us this land, a land flowing with milk and honey.
Nĩatũrehire kũndũ gũkũ na agĩtũhe bũrũri ũyũ, bũrũri ũrĩ bũthi wa iria na ũũkĩ;
10 Now, behold, I have brought the first of the fruit of the ground, which you, Yahweh, have given me.” You shall set it down before Yahweh your God, and worship before Yahweh your God.
na rĩrĩ, nĩndarehe maciaro ma mbere ma tĩĩri ũrĩa, Wee Jehova, ũheete.” Nawe ũkĩige kĩondo kĩu mbere ya Jehova Ngai waku na ũinamĩrĩre mbere yake.
11 You shall rejoice in all the good which Yahweh your God has given to you, and to your house, you, and the Levite, and the foreigner who is among you.
Wee mwene, na Alawii, o na andũ a kũngĩ arĩa marĩ thĩinĩ wanyu, nĩmũgakenera maũndũ mothe mega marĩa Jehova Ngai wanyu amũheete na akahe andũ a nyũmba cianyu.
12 When you have finished tithing all the tithe of your increase in the third year, which is the year of tithing, then you shall give it to the Levite, to the foreigner, to the fatherless, and to the widow, that they may eat within your gates and be filled.
Rĩrĩa ũgaakorwo ũrĩkĩtie kwamũra gĩcunjĩ gĩa ikũmi kĩa maciaro maku mothe mwaka-inĩ wa gatatũ, mwaka ũcio wa kũrutwo gĩcunjĩ gĩa ikũmi, nĩũgakĩheana kũrĩ Alawii, na kũrĩ mũndũ wa kũngĩ, na kũrĩ mwana wa ngoriai, o na kũrĩ mũtumia wa ndigwa, nĩgeetha marĩe mahũũne marĩ kũu matũũra-inĩ manyu.
13 You shall say before Yahweh your God, “I have put away the holy things out of my house, and also have given them to the Levite, to the foreigner, to the fatherless, and to the widow, according to all your commandment which you have commanded me. I have not transgressed any of your commandments, neither have I forgotten them.
Ũcooke wĩre Jehova Ngai waku atĩrĩ, “Nĩndĩkĩtie kũruta gĩcunjĩ kĩrĩa kĩamũre kuuma nyũmba-inĩ yakwa, na nĩ ndĩkĩheanĩte kũrĩ Mũlawii, na kũrĩ mũndũ wa kũngĩ, na kũrĩ mwana wa ngoriai, na kũrĩ mũtumia wa ndigwa o ta ũrĩa wothe wathanĩte. Nditiganĩirie maathani maku o na kana ngariganĩrwo nĩ rĩmwe rĩamo.
14 I have not eaten of it in my mourning, neither have I removed any of it while I was unclean, nor given of it for the dead. I have listened to Yahweh my God’s voice. I have done according to all that you have commanded me.
Ndirĩte gĩcunjĩ o na kĩmwe gĩa kĩrĩa kĩamũre hĩndĩ ya macakaya, kana ngeheria o na kĩmwe gĩakĩo rĩrĩa ndaarĩ mũthaahu, o na kana ngarutĩra arĩa akuũ kĩmwe gĩakĩo. Nĩnjathĩkĩire Jehova Ngai wakwa, nĩnjĩkĩte o ta ũrĩa wothe ũnjathĩte.
15 Look down from your holy habitation, from heaven, and bless your people Israel, and the ground which you have given us, as you swore to our fathers, a land flowing with milk and honey.”
Kĩrore ũrĩ o kũu igũrũ, o kũu gĩtũũro gĩaku gĩtheru, ũrathime andũ aku a Isiraeli na bũrũri ũyũ ũtũheete o ta ũrĩa werĩire maithe maitũ ma tene na mwĩhĩtwa, bũrũri ũrĩ bũthi wa iria na ũũkĩ.”
16 Today Yahweh your God commands you to do these statutes and ordinances. You shall therefore keep and do them with all your heart and with all your soul.
Jehova Ngai waku egũgwatha ũmũthĩ ũrũmagĩrĩre irĩra cia watho wa kũrũmĩrĩrwo, na mawatho; ũmenyerere kũmaathĩkĩra na ngoro yaku yothe na muoyo waku wothe.
17 You have declared today that Yahweh is your God, and that you would walk in his ways, keep his statutes, his commandments, and his ordinances, and listen to his voice.
Nĩumbũrĩte ũmũthĩ atĩ Jehova nĩwe Ngai waku, na atĩ nĩũrĩthiiaga na njĩra ciake, na nĩũrĩathĩkagĩra irĩra cia watho wake wa kũrũmĩrĩrwo, na maathani make, o na mawatho, na atĩ nĩũrĩmwathĩkagĩra.
18 Yahweh has declared today that you are a people for his own possession, as he has promised you, and that you should keep all his commandments.
Nake Jehova nĩoimbũrĩte ũmũthĩ atĩ wee ũrĩ rũrĩrĩ rwake, rũrĩrĩ rwa bata mũno o ta ũrĩa eeranĩire, na nĩ ũrĩmenyagĩrĩra maathani make mothe.
19 He will make you high above all nations that he has made, in praise, in name, and in honor, and that you may be a holy people to Yahweh your God, as he has spoken.
Nĩoimbũrĩte atĩ nĩagagũtũũgĩria, ũgĩe na ngumo na gĩtĩĩo gũkĩra ndũrĩrĩ ciothe iria oombĩte, na nĩũgatuĩka rũrĩrĩ rũtheru kũrĩ Jehova Ngai waku, o ta ũrĩa eeranĩire.
