Kaingĩ Bibilia ĩhũthagĩra kiugo gĩa Kĩngiriki stau·rosʹ ĩkĩaria ũhoro wa harĩa Jesu oragĩirũo. (Mathayo 27:40; Johana 19:17) O na gũtuĩka kaingĩ kiugo kĩu nĩ gĩtaũragwo “mũtharaba,” athomi aingĩ nĩ metĩkanagĩria atĩ kiugo kĩu kiugĩte “mũtĩ.” * Kũringana na A Critical Lexicon and Concordance to the English and Greek New Testament, kiugo stau·rosʹ “gĩtionanagia icunjĩ igĩrĩ cia mũtĩ ikĩranĩtio.”

Ngai aathĩte Aisiraeli matikahũthĩre “mũhianano wa mũthemba wothe” ũthathaiya-inĩ wao, na Akristiano o nao merĩtwo ũũ: “Ũragĩrai ũhoi mĩhianano.”—Gũcokerithia Maathani 4:15-19, The Holy Bible in Gĩkũyũ Language; 1 Akorintho 10:14.
