< Leviticus 26 >

1 I [am] the Lord your God: you shall not make to yourselves gods made with hands, or graven; neither shall you rear up a pillar for yourselves, neither shall you set up a stone [for] an object in your land to worship it: I am the Lord your God.
“‘Mũtikanethondekere mĩhianano kana mwĩrũgamirie mũhianĩre wa kĩndũ kana ihiga rĩamũre rĩa kũhooywo, mũtikaige ihiga rĩacũhie bũrũri-inĩ wanyu atĩ nĩguo mũrĩinamagĩrĩre. Niĩ nĩ niĩ Jehova Ngai wanyu.
2 You shall keep my sabbaths, and reverence my sanctuaries: I am the Lord.
“‘Menyagĩrĩrai Thabatũ ciakwa na mũtĩĩage handũ hakwa harĩa haamũre. Niĩ nĩ niĩ Jehova.
3 If you will walk in my ordinances, and keep my commandments, and do them,
“‘Mũngĩrũmĩrĩra kĩrĩra kĩa watho wakwa na mũmenyagĩrĩre gwathĩkagĩra maathani makwa,
4 then will I give you the rain in its season, and the land shall produce its fruits, and the trees of the field shall yield their fruit.
nĩngamuuragĩria mbura imera ciayo ciakinya, na mĩgũnda yanyu nĩrĩciaraga irio, nayo mĩtĩ ya mĩgũnda yanyu ĩciarage maciaro mayo.
5 And your threshing time shall overtake the vintage, and your vintage shall overtake your seed time; and you shall eat your bread to the full; and you shall dwell safely upon your land, and war shall not go through your land.
Mũrĩhũũraga ngano yanyu mũgakinyĩria magetha ma thabibũ, namo magetha ma thabibũ magakinyĩria hĩndĩ ya mahaanda, na mũrĩrĩĩaga irio mũkahũũna, na mũtũũre bũrũri wanyu mũrĩ na thayũ.
6 And I will give peace in your land, and you shall sleep, and none [shall] make you afraid; and I will destroy the evil beasts out of your land,
“‘Nĩngatũma bũrũri wanyu ũgĩe na thayũ, na mũrĩkomaga gũtarĩ mũndũ ũngĩtũma mwĩtigĩre. Nĩnganiina nyamũ njũru ciehere bũrũri-inĩ wanyu. Nacio itigacooka kuoneka bũrũri-inĩ wanyu.
7 and you shall pursue your enemies, and they shall fall before you with slaughter.
Nĩmũkaingatithia thũ cianyu, na mũcihoote mbaara-inĩ.
8 And five of you shall chase a hundred, and a hundred of you shall chase tens of thousands; and your enemies shall fall before you by the sword.
Andũ atano anyu makaahũũra andũ igana, nao andũ anyu igana makaahũũra andũ ngiri ikũmi, nacio thũ nĩ mũgaacihoota mũciũrage na rũhiũ rwa njora.
9 And I will look upon you, and increase you, and multiply you, and establish my covenant with you.
“‘Nĩngamuonia ũtugi wakwa, na ndũme mũciarane na mũingĩhe, na nĩngatũũria kĩrĩkanĩro gĩakwa na inyuĩ.
10 And you shall eat that which is old and very old, and bring forth the old to make way for the new.
Mũgaakoragwo o mũkĩrĩa magetha ma mwaka mũthiru nginya rĩrĩa mũkaamaruta nja nĩguo mũgĩe na handũ ha kũiga magetha marĩa maragethwo.
11 And I will set my tabernacle among you, and my soul shall not abhor you;
Ngaiga gĩikaro gĩakwa gatagatĩ kanyu, na ndikamũthũũra.
12 and I will walk among you, and be your God, and you shall be my people.
Ngaathiiaga ndĩ gatagatĩ kanyu, nduĩke Ngai wanyu, na inyuĩ mũtuĩke andũ akwa.
13 I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, where you were slaves; and I broke the band of your yoke, and brought you forth openly.
Niĩ nĩ niĩ Jehova Ngai wanyu, ũrĩa wamũrutire bũrũri wa Misiri, nĩguo mũtige gũtuĩka ngombo cia andũ a Misiri; ndoinangire macooki ma ngingo cianyu ngĩtũma mũhotage gũthiĩ mwĩhaandĩte wega.
14 But if you will not listen to me, nor obey these my ordinances,
“‘No mũngĩkaaga kũnjigua, mwage kũhingia maathani macio mothe,
15 but disobey them, and your soul should loathe my judgments, so that you should not keep all my commands, so as to break my covenant,
na mũngĩrega kĩrĩra gĩakwa kĩa watho na mũthũũre mawatho makwa, na mwage kũhingia maathani makwa, na nĩ ũndũ ũcio mũthũkie kĩrĩkanĩro gĩakwa-rĩ,
16 then will I do thus to you: I will even bring upon you perplexity and the itch, and the fever that causes your eyes to waste away, and [disease] that consumes your life; and you shall sow your seeds in vain, and your enemies shall eat them.
Niĩ na niĩ nĩngamwĩka maũndũ maya: Nĩngamũrehere kĩmako, na ndĩmũrehere ndwari cia kũmũniina na ũndũ wa kũhiũha kwa mĩĩrĩ kũrĩa gũkaamũte maitho, na gũtũme mũũrwo nĩ hinya. Mũkaahaanda mbeũ tũhũ, nĩ ũndũ ikaarĩagwo nĩ thũ cianyu.
17 And I will set my face against you, and you shall fall before your enemies, and they that hate you shall pursue you; and you shall flee, no one pursuing you.
Nĩngamũrũithia ndĩmũũkĩrĩre nĩguo mũhootwo nĩ thũ cianyu; arĩa mamũthũire nĩo makaamwathaga, na mũkooraga hatarĩ mũndũ ũmũingatithĩtie.
18 And if you still refuse to listen to me, then will I chasten you yet more even seven times for your sins.
“‘Angĩkorwo o na mwekwo maũndũ macio mũtikanjigua-rĩ, ngaakĩrĩrĩria kũmũherithia nĩ ũndũ wa mehia manyu maita mũgwanja.
19 And I will break down the haughtiness of your pride; and I will make your heaven iron, and your earth as it were brass.
Nĩnganiina rũngʼathio rwa mwĩtĩĩo wanyu, na ndũme matu matuĩke ta cuuma, nayo thĩ yũme ĩtuĩke ta gĩcango.
20 And your strength shall be in vain; and your land shall not yield its seed, and the tree of your field shall not yield its fruit.
Mũkaahũthĩra hinya wanyu o tũhũ, tondũ tĩĩri wanyu ndũkagethwo kĩndũ, kana mĩtĩ ya bũrũri wanyu ĩciare maciaro mayo.
21 And if after this you should walk perversely, and not be willing to obey me, I will further bring upon you seven plagues according to your sins.
“‘Ningĩ mũngĩthiĩ na mbere na mĩthiĩre ya kũnemera, na mwage kũnjigua, nĩngakĩrĩrĩria kũmũingĩhĩria mahũũra mangĩ maita mũgwanja o ũrĩa mehia manyu magĩrĩirwo nĩ kũherithio.
22 And I will send upon you the wild beasts of the land, and they shall devour you, and shall consume your cattle: and I will make you few in number, and your ways shall be desolate.
Nĩngamũrehere nyamũ cia gĩthaka imũũkĩrĩre, nacio imũtunye ciana cianyu, na iniine ngʼombe cianyu, o na itũme mũigana wanyu ũnyiihe ũũ atĩ barabara cianyu ciage andũ.
23 And if hereupon you are not corrected, but walk perversely towards me,
“‘Ningĩ kũngĩkorwo o na mwekwo maũndũ macio no mũkaarega kũnjookerera na mũgĩthiĩ na mbere kũnjũkĩrĩra-rĩ,
24 I also will walk with you with a perverse spirit, and I also will strike you seven times for your sins.
niĩ na niĩ nĩngamũũkĩrĩra, na nĩngakĩrĩrĩria kũmũhũũra nĩ ũndũ wa mehia manyu maita mangĩ mũgwanja.
25 And I will bring upon you a sword avenging the cause of [my] covenant, and you shall flee for refuge to your cities; and I will send out death against you, and you shall be delivered into the hands of your enemies.
Nĩngamũrehithĩria rũhiũ rwa njora rũrĩhĩrie kĩrĩkanĩro kĩrĩa mũthũkĩtie. Muorĩra matũũra-inĩ marĩa manene manyu, nĩngamũrehithĩria mũthiro thĩinĩ wanyu, na ndĩmũrekererie moko-inĩ ma thũ cianyu.
26 When I afflict you with famine of bread, then ten women shall bake your loaves in one oven, and they shall render your loaves by weight; and you shall eat, and not be satisfied.
Rĩrĩa ngaamwehereria makũmbĩ manyu ma irio, andũ-a-nja ikũmi makaarugagĩra mĩgate yanyu riiko rĩmwe, nao macooke kũmũrehera mĩgate ĩyo ĩthimĩtwo na ratiri. Mũkaamĩrĩĩaga na mũtihũũne.
27 And if hereupon you will not obey me, but walk perversely towards me,
“‘Ningĩ kũngĩkorwo o na mwekwo maũndũ macio mũtikanjigua-rĩ, no mũthiĩ o na mbere kũnjũkĩrĩra,
28 then will I walk with you with a froward mind, and I will chasten you sevenfold according to your sins.
niĩ na niĩ nĩngamũũkĩrĩra na marakara na niĩ mwene ngĩrĩrĩrie kũmũherithia maita mangĩ mũgwanja nĩ ũndũ wa mehia manyu.
29 And you shall eat the flesh of your sons, and the flesh of your daughters shall you eat.
Mũkaarĩĩaga nyama cia ariũ na aarĩ anyu.
30 And I will render your pillars desolate, and will utterly destroy your wooden [images] made with hands; and I will lay your carcases on the carcases of your idols, and my soul shall loathe you.
Ningĩ nĩngananga kũndũ kwanyu kũrĩa gũtũũgĩru, na ndemange magongona manyu ma ũbani na njooke njigĩrĩre ciimba cianyu igũrũ rĩa mĩhianano ĩyo yanyu ĩtarĩ muoyo, na ndĩmũthũũre.
31 And I will lay your cities waste, and I will make your sanctuaries desolate, and I will not smell the savor of your sacrifices.
Matũũra manyu marĩa manene nĩngamananga na handũ hanyu harĩa haamũre ndĩhoonũhe, o na ndigakenio nĩ mũtararĩko mwega wa maruta manyu.
32 And I will lay your land desolate, and your enemies who dwell in it shall wonder at it.
Nĩngonũha bũrũri ũcio, nginya thũ cianyu iria itũũraga kuo igege.
33 And I will scatter you among the nations, and the sword shall come upon you and consume you; and your land shall be desolate, and your cities shall be desolate.
Nĩngamũharagania ndũrĩrĩ-inĩ na njomore rũhiũ rwakwa rwa njora ndĩmũingatithie. Naguo bũrũri wanyu ndĩũnũhe, namo matũũra manyu marĩa manene ndĩmanange.
34 Then the land shall enjoy its sabbaths all the days of its desolation.
Thuutha ũcio, bũrũri ũcio nĩũgakenera mĩaka ya Thabatũ hĩndĩ ĩyo yothe ũgaakorwo ũkirĩte ihooru, na inyuĩ mũrĩ bũrũri-inĩ wa thũ cianyu; naguo bũrũri nĩũkahurũka, na ũkenere thabatũ ciaguo.
35 And you shall be in the land of your enemies; then the land shall keep its sabbaths, and the land shall enjoy its sabbaths all the days of its desolation: it shall keep sabbaths which it kept not among your sabbaths, when you lived in it.
Ihinda rĩrĩa bũrũri ũcio ũgaakorwo ũkirĩte ihooru, nĩũkahurũka kũrĩa wagĩte kũhurũka hĩndĩ ya Thabatũ iria mwatũũrĩte kuo.
36 And to those who are left of you I will bring bondage into their heart in the land of their enemies; and the sound of a shaken leaf shall chase them, and they shall flee as fleeing from war, and shall fall when none pursues them.
“‘Nao arĩa anyu magaatigara, nĩngatũma ngoro ciao inyiitwo nĩ guoya marĩ mabũrũri-inĩ macio ma thũ ciao, o nginya ithangũ rĩabarabario nĩ rũhuho rĩgatũma moore. Nao makooraga o ta ũrĩa mũndũ ooragĩra rũhiũ rwa njora, na nĩmakagũũaga o na gũtarĩ mũndũ ũmaingatithĩtie.
37 And brother shall disregard brother as in war, when none pursues; and you shall not be able to withstand your enemies.
Makaahĩnganaga makĩũra o ta andũ maroorĩra rũhiũ rwa njora o na gũtarĩ mũndũ ũmaingatithĩtie. Nĩ ũndũ ũcio mũtikahota gwĩtiiria thũ cianyu.
38 And you shall perish among the Gentiles, and the land of your enemies shall devour you.
Mũgaathirĩra kũu ndũrĩrĩ-inĩ; bũrũri wa thũ cianyu ũkaamũrĩa ũmũniine.
39 And those who are left of you shall perish, because of their sins, and because of the sins of their fathers: in the land of their enemies shall they consume away.
Nao andũ anyu arĩa magaatigara nĩmakoorwo nĩ hinya marĩ kũu bũrũri-inĩ ũcio wa thũ ciao nĩ ũndũ wa mehia mao; o na ningĩ nĩ ũndũ wa mehia ma maithe mao, nĩ makoorwo nĩ hinya.
40 And they shall confess their sins, and the sins of their fathers, that they have transgressed and neglected me, and that they have walked perversely before me,
“‘No mangĩkoimbũra mehia mao na mehia ma maithe mao, o na mehia ma kũnemera na ma kũnjũkĩrĩra,
41 and I walked with them with a perverse mind; and I will destroy them in the land of their enemies: then shall their uncircumcised heart be ashamed, and then shall they acquiesce in [the punishment of] their sins.
kũrĩa gwatũmire ndĩmookĩrĩre nginya ngĩmatwarithia bũrũri wa thũ ciao, thuutha ũcio rĩrĩa ngoro icio ciao nyũmũ ikenyiihia na ciĩtĩkĩre ihũũra rĩa mehia mao-rĩ,
42 And I will remember the covenant of Jacob, and the covenant of Isaac, and the covenant of Abraam will I remember.

43 And I will remember the land, and the land shall be left of them; then the land shall enjoy her sabbaths, when it is deserted through them: and they shall accept [the punishment of] their iniquities, because they neglected my judgments, and in their soul loathed my ordinances.
Nĩgũkorwo bũrũri ũcio nĩũgatiganĩrio nĩo, naguo nĩũgakenera Thabatũ ciaguo rĩrĩa ũgaakira ihooru ũtarĩ nao. Nĩmakarĩhio mehia mao nĩ ũndũ nĩmaregire mawatho makwa na magĩthũũra kĩrĩra gĩakwa kĩa watho.
44 And yet not even thus, while they were in the land of their enemies, did I overlook them, nor did I loathe them so as to consume them, to break my covenant made with them; for I am the Lord their God.

46 These are my judgments and my ordinances, and the law which the Lord gave between himself and the children of Israel, in the mount Sina, by the hand of Moses.
