< Zechariah 3 >

1 And the Lord schewide to me the greet prest Jhesu, stondynge bifore the aungel of the Lord; and Sathan stood on his riythalf, that he schulde be aduersarie to hym.
Ningĩ akĩnyonia Joshua, mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai ũrĩa mũnene, arũgamĩte mbere ya mũraika wa Jehova, nake Shaitani arũgamĩte mwena wake wa ũrĩo nĩguo amũcuuke.
2 And the Lord seide to Sathan, The Lord blame in thee, Sathan, and the Lord that chees Jerusalem, blame in thee. Whether this is not a deed broond rauyschid fro the fier?
Nake Jehova akĩĩra Shaitani atĩrĩ, “Jehova arogũkũũma, wee Shaitani! Jehova ũrĩa ũthuurĩte Jerusalemu arogũkũũma wee! Githĩ mũndũ ũyũ ti gĩcinga gĩtharĩtwo kuuma mwaki-inĩ?”
3 And Jhesus was clothid with foule clothis, and stood bifor the face of the aungel.
Na rĩrĩ, Joshua eehumbĩte nguo irĩ gĩko hĩndĩ ĩyo aarũgamĩte mbere ya mũraika.
4 Which answeride, and seide to hem that stoden bifor hym, and he seide, Do ye awei foule clothis fro him. And he seide to hym, Lo! Y haue don awei fro thee thi wickidnesse, and Y haue clothid thee with chaungynge clothis.
Mũraika ũcio akĩĩra arĩa maarũngiĩ mbere yake atĩrĩ, “Mũrutei nguo icio ciake irĩ na gĩko.” Agĩcooka akĩĩra Joshua atĩrĩ, “Atĩrĩrĩ, nĩnjeheretie mehia maku, na nĩngũkũhumba nguo cia goro.”
5 And he seide, Putte ye a clene mytre on his heed. And thei puttiden a cleene mytre on his heed, and clothide him with clothis. And the aungel of the Lord stood,
Ngĩcooka ngiuga atĩrĩ, “Muohei kĩremba gĩtheru mũtwe.” Nĩ ũndũ ũcio makĩmuoha kĩremba gĩtheru mũtwe, na makĩmũhumba nguo, mũraika wa Jehova arũgamĩte o hau.
6 and the aungel of the Lord witnesside to Jhesu,
Mũraika wa Jehova agĩatha Joshua, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ,
7 and seide, The Lord of oostis seith these thingis, If thou schalt go in my weies, and schalt kepe my kepynge, also and thou schalt deme myn hous, and schalt kepe my porchis; and Y schal yyue to thee goeris, of these that now here stonden niy.
“Jehova Mwene-Hinya-Wothe ekuuga ũũ, ‘Ũngĩrũmĩrĩra mĩthiĩre yakwa na ũmenyagĩrĩre maũndũ marĩa nyendaga mekwo, nĩũgaathaga nyũmba yakwa, o na ũtuĩke mũrũgamĩrĩri wa nja ciayo, na ngwĩtĩkĩrie ũtuĩke ũmwe wa andũ aya marũngiĩ haha.
8 Here thou, Jhesu, greet preest, thou and thi frendis that dwellen bifore thee, for thei ben men signefiynge thing to comyng. Lo! sotheli Y schal brynge my seruaunt spryngynge up, ether Crist borun.
“‘Ta thikĩrĩria, wee Joshua, mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai ũrĩa mũnene, hamwe na athiritũ aku aya maikarĩte thĩ mbere yaku, o acio kĩmenyithia kĩa maũndũ marĩa magooka: Nĩngarehe ndungata yakwa, o we Rũhonge.’
9 For lo! the stoon which Y yaf bifor Jhesu, on o stoon ben seuene iyen; and lo! Y schal graue the grauyng therof, seith the Lord of oostis, and Y schal do a wei the wickidnesse of that lond in o dai.
Jehova Mwene-Hinya-Wothe ekuuga ũũ, ‘Atĩrĩrĩ, nĩnjigĩte ihiga mbere ya Joshua! Ihiga rĩu rĩrĩ na maitho mũgwanja, na nĩngakurura maandĩko igũrũ warĩo, na njeherie mehia ma bũrũri ũyũ na mũthenya ũmwe.
10 In that dai, seith the Lord of oostis, a man schal clepe his frend vndur a vyn tre, and vndur a fige tre.
“‘Mũthenya ũcio-rĩ, o mũndũ wanyu nĩageeta mũndũ wa itũũra rĩake maikare rungu rwa mũtĩ wake wa mũthabibũ na wa mũkũyũ,’” ũguo nĩguo Jehova Mwene-Hinya-Wothe ekuuga.
