Rapar Mar Chik 21

1 Ka ngʼato onegi moyud ka oriere piny e pap kama Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu miyou mondo ukaw kendo ok ongʼere malongʼo ngʼama onege,

If one be founde slaine in the lande, which the Lord thy God giueth thee to possesse it, lying in the field, and it is not knowe who hath slaine him,

2 to jodongu gi jongʼad bura nodhi mondo opim gi tol chakre kama ringre ngʼatno nitie nyaka e mier machiegni kode.

Then thine Elders and thy Iudges shall come forth, and measure vnto the cities that are round about him that is slayne.

3 Eka jodongo manie dala machiegni kod ringre ngʼatno nokaw nyaroya mapok otiyo, kata mapok otwe e jok,

Aud let ye Elders of that citie, which is next vnto the slaine man, take out of the droue an heifer that hath not bene put to labour, nor hath drawen in the yoke.

4 kendo gilor kode e holo kama pok opur kata pidhoe cham, kochomo aora ma pi molie, kendo kanyo ema mondo giture ngʼute.

And let the Elders of that citie bring the heifer vnto a stonie valley, which is neyther eared nor sowen, and strike off the heifers necke there in the valley.

5 Jodolo, ma yawuot joka Lawi nochungʼ nyime, nimar Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu oseyierogi mondo gitine kendo mondo gichiw gweth e nying Jehova Nyasaye kendo mondo gingʼad buche mar larruok kod mag nek.

Also the Priests the sonnes of Leui (whom the Lord thy God hath chosen to minister, and to blesse in the name of the Lord) shall come forth, and by their word shall all strife and plague be tried.

6 Eka jodongo duto manie dala machiegni gi kama ringruokno nitie noluok lwetgi e nyaroyano ma ngʼute otur e holo,

And all the Elders of that citie that came neere to the slayne man, shall wash their hands ouer the heifer that is beheaded in the valley:

7 kendo giniwach niya, “Lwetwa ne ok osechwero remoni kata wangʼwa ne ok oneno ka otimore.

And shall testifie, and say, Our handes haue not shed this blood, neither haue our eies seene it.

8 Yie iwinj pwodhruok ma jogi Israel ma isereso yaye Jehova Nyasaye kendo kik ikaw jogi kaka joketho mochwero remo maonge ketho.” Kamano ginipwodhre kuom richo mar chwero remono.

O Lord, be mercifull vnto thy people Israel, whom thou hast redeemed, and lay no innocent blood to the charge of thy people Israel, and the blood shalbe forgiuen them.

9 Mano e kaka ubiro golo kuomu tim marach mar chwero remo maonge ketho, nikech usetimo gima kare e wangʼ Jehova Nyasaye.

So shalt thou take away the cry of innocet blood from thee, when thou shalt do that which is right in the sight of the Lord.

10 Ka udhi kedo gi wasigu kendo Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu ochiwogi e lwetu ma umakogi ka wasumbini magu,

Whe thou shalt go to warre against thine enemies, and the Lord thy God shall deliuer them into thine hands, and thou shalt take the captiues,

11 kendo ka ineno dhako moro ma jaber e kind mon momaki, ma idwaro kendo to inyalo kawe obed chiegi.

And shalt see among the captiues a beautifull woman, and hast a desire vnto her, and wouldest take her to thy wife,

12 Kel dhakono e odi, bangʼe liel wiye kendo ingʼad kokene,

Then thou shalt bring her home to thine house, and she shall shaue her head, and pare her nayles,

13 bende igol lepe mane omakego. Bangʼ ka osedak e odi kuom dwe achiel koywago wuon gi min, eka idhi ire mondo ibed chwore kendo en bende obed chiegi.

And she shall put off the garment that shee was taken in, and she shall remaine in thine house, and bewaile her father and her mother a moneth long: and after that shalt thou go in vnto her, and marry her, and she shalbe thy wife.

14 Ka ok imor kode, to iweye odhi kamoro amora ma ohero. Ok onego iuse kata kete jatichni, nimar isemiye wichkuot.

And if thou haue no fauour vnto her, then thou mayest let her go whither she will, but thou shalt not sell her for money, nor make marchandise of her, because thou hast humbled her.

15 Ka ngʼato nigi mon ariyo, kendo ohero moro maloyo machielo mi giduto ginywolone yawuowi, to wuowi mokwong nywol en wuod dhako ma ok ohero,

If a man haue two wiues, one loued and another hated, and they haue borne him children, both the loued and also the hated: if the first borne be the sonne of the hated,

16 ka ondiko mwandune ne yawuote kik okaw ratiro mar wuowi makayo omi wuod dhako moherono.

Then when the time commeth, that hee appointeth his sonnes to be heires of that which he hath, he may not make the sonne of the beloued first borne before the sonne of the hated, which is the first borne:

17 Nyaka one ni ochiwone wuowi maduongʼ ma wuod dhako ma ok oherocha pok nyadiriyo mar gige duto. Wuowino en e ranyisi mokwongo mar tekre wuon. Ratiro mar wuowi makayo en mare.

But he shall acknowledge the sonne of the hated for the first borne, and giue him double portion of all that he hath: for hee is the first of his strength, and to him belongeth the right of the first borne.

18 Ka ngʼato nigi wuowi ma jendeke ma ok winj wuon kod min kendo ok owinjgi ka okume,

If any man haue a sonne that is stubburne and disobedient, which wil not hearken vnto the voice of his father, nor the voyce of his mother, and they haue chastened him, and he would not obey them,

19 wuon gi min nyaka kawe mitere ir jodongo e ranga dalagi.

Then shall his father and his mother take him, and bring him out vnto the Elders of his citie, and vnto the gate of the place where he dwelleth,

20 Giniwach ne jodongo niya, “Wuodwani wiye tek kendo ja-jendeke, ok owinjwa, en janjore kendo jakongʼo.”

And shall say vnto the Elders of his citie, This our sonne is stubburne and disobedient, and he wil not obey our admonition: he is a riotour, and a drunkard.

21 Eka ji duto modak e gwengʼno nogoye gi kite motho. Nyaka ugol tim marachni e dieru kendo jo-Israel duto kowinjo wachno nobed maluor.

Then all the men of his citie shall stone him with stones vnto death: so thou shalt take away euill from among you, that all Israel may heare it, and feare.

22 Ka ngʼato motimo tim mamono onegi mi ringre ongʼaw e yien,

If a man also haue committed a trespasse worthy of death, and is put to death, and thou hangest him on a tree,

23 to kik uwe ringre dongʼ koliero ma piny ru. Une ni uike mana chiengʼno nikech ngʼato angʼata ma olier e yath en ngʼama Nyasaye okwongʼo. Kik udwany piny ma Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu miyou kaka girkeni.

His body shall not remaine all night vpon the tree, but thou shalt bury him the same day: for the curse of God is on him that is hanged. Defile not therfore thy land which the Lord thy God giueth thee to inherite.
