Rapar Mar Chik 18
1 Jodolo, magin jo-Lawi, adier oganda duto mawuok e dhood Lawi ok noyud pokgi kata girkeni gi jo-Israel. Gibiro dak kuom chiwo motimne Jehova Nyasaye gi mach, nimar mano e pokgi.
The priests and the Levites—all the tribe of Levi—shall have no portion nor inheritance with Israel. They shall eat the offerings of the LORD made by fire and his portion.
2 Ok ginibed gi pok e kind jowetegi, nimar Jehova Nyasaye e pok margi mana kaka nosesingorenegi.
They shall have no inheritance among their brothers. The LORD is their inheritance, as he has spoken to them.
3 Pok mowinjore jodolo kaw kuom misango mar rwath kod rombo ma ji ochiwo gin lemo mar bat, ring lemb kod chino.
This shall be the priests’ due from the people, from those who offer a sacrifice, whether it be ox or sheep, that they shall give to the priest: the shoulder, the two cheeks, and the inner parts.
4 Onego umigi keyo mokwongo mag puotheu kaka cham, divai manyien, gi mo kod yie rombe mukwongo ngʼado,
You shall give him the first fruits of your grain, of your new wine, and of your oil, and the first of the fleece of your sheep.
5 nimar Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu oseyierogi kod nyikwagi kagiwuok e dhoutu duto mondo gichungʼ e nyim Jehova Nyasaye ka gitiyone kinde duto.
For the LORD your God has chosen him out of all your tribes to stand to minister in the LORD’s name, him and his sons forever.
6 Ka ja-Lawi odhiyo e dalau moro amora e Israel modakie, kendo obiro gi dembruok kama Jehova Nyasaye biro yiero,
If a Levite comes from any of your gates out of all Israel where he lives, and comes with all the desire of his soul to the place which the LORD shall choose,
7 to onyalo timo tich dolo e nying Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasache mana kaka jo-Lawi mamoko matiyo kanyo e nyim Jehova Nyasaye.
then he shall minister in the name of the LORD his God, as all his brothers the Levites do, who stand there before the LORD.
8 Onego oyud pok maromre kodgi, kata obedo ni oseyudo pok makore koa e ndalo wuon-gi.
They shall have like portions to eat, in addition to that which comes from the sale of his family possessions.
9 Ka udonjo e piny ma Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu miyou, kik upuonjru timbe mamono mag ogendini man kuno.
When you have come into the land which the LORD your God gives you, you shall not learn to imitate the abominations of those nations.
10 Kik yud ngʼato kuomu matimo misango gi wuode kata nyare e kendo, kata matimo timbe nyakalondo, kata jwok, kata loko dhoch kata ido,
There shall not be found with you anyone who makes his son or his daughter to pass through the fire, one who uses divination, one who tells fortunes, or an enchanter, or a sorcerer,
11 kata jo-nyakalondo kata ajwoga kata ngʼat matiyo gi lang chunje maricho.
or a charmer, or someone who consults with a familiar spirit, or a wizard, or a necromancer.
12 Ngʼato angʼata matimo gik ma kamagi mono gi Jehova Nyasaye kendo nikech timbe mamonogi Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu biro riembo ogendini e nyimu.
For whoever does these things is an abomination to the LORD. Because of these abominations, the LORD your God drives them out from before you.
13 Nyaka ubed maonge ketho e nyim Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu.
You shall be blameless with the LORD your God.
14 Pinje ma ubiro kawo winjo rieko mag ajuoke nyakalondo, to un Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu ok oyienu timo kamano.
For these nations that you shall dispossess listen to those who practice sorcery and to diviners; but as for you, the LORD your God has not allowed you so to do.
15 Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu biro miyou janabi machal koda kowuok e dier oweteu, nyaka uwinje.
The LORD your God will raise up to you a prophet from among you, of your brothers, like me. You shall listen to him.
16 Nikech ma e gima ne upenjo Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu e got Horeb e chiengʼ chokruok kane uwacho niya, “Kik wawinj dwond Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachwa kata neno mach makakni kama dipo ka watho.”
This is according to all that you desired of the LORD your God in Horeb in the day of the assembly, saying, “Let me not hear again the LORD my God’s voice, neither let me see this great fire any more, that I not die.”
17 Jehova Nyasaye nowachona niya, “Gima giwachono nikare.”
The LORD said to me, “They have well said that which they have spoken.
18 Abiro miyogi janabi machal kodi moa kuom owetegi, abiro keto wechena e dhoge kendo obiro nyisogi gik moko duto ma achikogi.
I will raise them up a prophet from among their brothers, like you. I will put my words in his mouth, and he shall speak to them all that I shall command him.
19 Ka ngʼato ok owinjo wechena ma janabino hulo e nyinga, to an awuon ema natere e bura.
It shall happen, that whoever will not listen to my words which he shall speak in my name, I will require it of him.
20 To janabi mahedhore wacho wach moro amora e nyinga ma ok anyise ni mondo owachi kata janabi ma wuoyo e nying nyiseche mamoko nyaka negi.
But the prophet who speaks a word presumptuously in my name, which I have not commanded him to speak, or who speaks in the name of other gods, that same prophet shall die.”
21 Unyalo wacho e kindu uwegi niya, “Ere kaka wanyalo ngʼeyo ni wach mowachno oa kuom Jehova Nyasaye?”
You may say in your heart, “How shall we know the word which the LORD has not spoken?”
22 Ka gima janabi owachono ok otimore kata ochopo kare, to mano en wach ma Jehova Nyasaye ok owacho. Janabino rodho arodha wach, kik uluore.
When a prophet speaks in the LORD’s name, if the thing does not follow, nor happen, that is the thing which the LORD has not spoken. The prophet has spoken it presumptuously. You shall not be afraid of him.
