Rapar Mar Chik 17
1 Kik itim misango ne Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachi gi rwath kata gi rombo man-gi songa kata mbala, nimar mano en gima kwero e nyime.
'Thou dost not sacrifice to Jehovah thy God ox or sheep in which there is a blemish — any evil thing; for it [is] the abomination of Jehovah thy God.
2 Ka dichwo kata dhako modak e dieru e achiel kuom dalane ma Jehova Nyasaye omiyou oyud katimo richo e wangʼ Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu kendo koketho singruokne,
'When there is found in thy midst, in one of thy cities which Jehovah thy God is giving to thee, a man or a woman who doth the evil thing in the eyes of Jehovah thy God by transgressing His covenant,
3 mopogore gi chikena molamo nyiseche mamoko, kokulorenegi, bed ni en chiengʼ, dwe kata sulwe marieny e kor polo.
and he doth go and serve other gods, and doth bow himself to them, and to the sun, or to the moon, or to any of the host of the heavens, which I have not commanded —
4 Ka wachni okel e nyimu, to nyaka unon tiende malongʼo. Ka unono wachni ma uyudo ni gima kwerono otimore e Israel adier,
and it hath been declared to thee, and thou hast heard, and hast searched diligently, and lo, truth; the thing is established; this abomination hath been done in Israel —
5 to goluru dichwono kata dhakono mosetimo gima mononi e dhorangach mar dala maduongʼ kendo mondo uchiele gi kite nyaka otho.
'Then thou hast brought out that man, or that woman, who hath done this evil thing, unto thy gates — the man or the woman — and thou hast stoned them with stones, and they have died.
6 Kik ungʼadne ngʼato buch tho ka nitie mana janeno achiel kende, to ngʼadne ngʼato buch tho ka nitie joneno ariyo kata adek.
By the mouth of two witnesses or of three witnesses is he who is dead put to death; he is not put to death by the mouth of one witness;
7 Lwet jonenogo ema onego okuong ogoye motho, bangʼe eka joma moko nogoye. Nyaka ugol tim marachno oa e dieru.
the hand of the witnesses is on him, in the first place, to put him to death, and the hand of all the people last; and thou hast put away the evil thing out of thy midst.
8 Kokel buche matek e dieru ma ok unyal ngʼado, bedni gin buche mag nek, larruok kata mag goruok, to tergiuru kama Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu biro yiero.
'When anything is too hard for thee for judgment, between blood and blood, between plea and plea, and between stroke and stroke — matters of strife within thy gates — then thou hast risen, and gone up unto the place on which Jehovah thy God doth fix,
9 Dhiuru ir jodolo magin jo-Lawi kendo kuom jangʼad bura manie tich sano. Nonuru wach kuomgi kendo gini ngʼadnu bura.
and hast come in unto the priests, the Levites, and unto the judge who is in those days, and hast inquired, and they have declared to thee the word of judgment,
10 Gima giwachonu kama Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu biro yierono ema nyaka utim.
and thou hast done according to the tenor of the word which they declare to thee ([they] of that place which Jehovah doth choose; and thou hast observed to do according to all that they direct thee.
11 Nyaka une ni utimo mana kaka giwachonu ma ok uweyo kata matin. Kik ukwan ka nono gik ma giwachonu.
'According to the tenor of the law which they direct thee, and according to the judgment which they say to thee thou dost do; thou dost not turn aside from the word which they declare to thee, right or left.
12 Ngʼato monyiso wich teko ne jangʼad bura kata ne jadolo ma ochungʼ kanyo kachiwo weche Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu nyaka negi kendo nyaka ugol tim mamono e dier jo-Israel.
And the man who acteth with presumption, so as not to hearken unto the priest (who is standing to serve there Jehovah thy God), or unto the judge, even that man hath died, and thou hast put away the evil thing from Israel,
13 Ji duto biro winjo kendo nobed maluor bende ok ginichak gibed gi wich teko.
and all the people do hear and fear, and do not presume any more.
14 Ka udonjo e piny ma ruoth ma Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu miyou, mi ukawe kendo udakie ma uwacho niya, “We waket ruodhwa mana kaka ogendini moluorowa,”
'When thou comest in unto the land which Jehovah thy God is giving to thee, and hast possessed it, and dwelt in it, and thou hast said, Let me set over me a king like all the nations which [are] round about me, —
15 to neuru ni uyiero ruoth ma Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu ema ochiwo, kendo nyaka obed achiel kuom oweteu, kik uket ngʼat machielo, ma ok en ja-Israel wadu.
thou dost certainly set over thee a king on whom Jehovah doth fix; from the midst of thy brethren thou dost set over thee a king; thou art not able to set over thee a stranger, who is not thy brother.
16 To ruoth ok onego obed gi farese mangʼeny kata chuno ji mondo odog Misri dhi omo moko, nimar Jehova Nyasaye osewachonu niya, “Ok onego udog gi yorno kendo.”
'Only, he doth not multiply to himself horses, nor cause the people to turn back to Egypt, so as to multiply horses, seeing Jehovah hath said to you, Ye do not add to turn back in this way any more.
17 Kik obed gi mon mathoth nikech mano dipoka oketho parone. Bende kik obed gi fedha kod dhahabu mangʼeny.
And he doth not multiply to himself wives, and his heart doth not turn aside, and silver and gold he doth not multiply to himself — exceedingly.
18 Ka okawo loch mar pinyruodhe, to nyaka ondik chikgi kogologi e kitap chik ma jodolo ma gin jo-Lawi nigo.
'And it hath been, when he sitteth on the throne of his kingdom, that he hath written for himself the copy of this law, on a book, from [that] before the priests the Levites,
19 Chikgi nyaka obedgo kosomo pile ndalo duto mag ngimane mondo opuonjrego miyo Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasache luor korito chikenegi kod buchene duto.
and it hath been with him, and he hath read in it all days of his life, so that he doth learn to fear Jehovah his God, to keep all the words of this law, and these statutes, to do them;
20 Kendo kik okwanre ni ober maloyo owetene koweyo luwo chik. Bangʼe en kod nyikwaye nobedie loch ndalo mangʼeny e pinyruodh Israel.
so that his heart is not high above his brethren, and so as not to turn aside from the command, right or left, so that he prolongeth days over his kingdom, he and his sons, in the midst of Israel.
