Rapar Mar Chik 25
1 Ka ji ariyo larore e wach moro, to nyaka giter wachno e od ngʼado bura kendo jongʼad bura nongʼadnegi bura kare, ka giweyo ngʼat makare thuolo to ngʼat man giketho ikumo.
If there be a controversy between men, and they call upon the judges: they shall give the prize of justice to him whom they perceive to be just: and him whom they find to be wicked, they shall condemn of wickedness.
2 Ka ngʼat moyud giketho onego chwadi, to jangʼad bura nowachne mondo onind piny ochwade maromre gi kethoneno,
And if they see that the offender be worthy of stripes: they shall lay him down, and shall cause him to be beaten before them. According to the measure of the sin shall the measure also of the stripes be:
3 to ok onego chwade del moloyo piero angʼwen. Ka ochwade moloyo mano, to wadu diyud wichkuot e wangʼe.
Yet so, that they exceed not the number of forty: lest thy brother depart shamefully torn before thy eyes.
4 Kik utwe dho dhiangʼ kaywayo lodi ma idinogo cham.
Thou shalt not muzzle the ox that treadeth out thy corn on the floor.
5 Ka owete odak kanyakla kae to moro otho kaonge wuowi, to ngʼat moro nono ma ok ja-dalano ok onego kend chiegeno. Owadgi chwore hie ema mondo okawe okende mondo otimne gik moko duto ma yuoro onego otimne chi owadgi.
When brethren dwell together, and one of them dieth without children, the wife of the deceased shall not marry to another: but his brother shall take her, and raise up seed for his brother:
6 Nyathi ma wuowi mokwong nywolo ema notingʼ kar nying wuon mare mane otho mondo kik nyinge lal nono e dier oganda jo-Israel.
And the first son he shall have of her he shall call by his name, that his name be not abolished out of Israel.
7 To ka ngʼato ok dwar kendo chi owadgi ma chwore othono, to dhakono mondo odhi ir jodongo e dhoranga dala kendo owach niya, “Owadgi chwora odagi ok onyal tingʼo kar owadgi ei Israel, odagi timona gima yuoro onego timne chi owadgi.”
But if he will not take his brother’s wife, who by law belongeth to him, the woman shall go to the gate of the city, and call upon the ancients, and say: My husband’s brother refuseth to raise up his brother’s name in Israel: and will not take me to wife.
8 Eka jodong dala noluong ngʼatno mondo owuo kode. To kapod odagi kowacho niya, “Ok adwar kende,”
And they shall cause him to be sent for forthwith, and shall ask him. If he answer: I will not take her to wife:
9 chi owadgino nodhi ire e nyim jodongo mi olony wuochene achiel e tiende kendo ongʼudh olawo e wangʼe kowachone niya, “Ma e gima itimo ne ngʼat modagi rito dala owadgi mondo ochungi.”
The woman shall come to him before the ancients, and shall take off his shoe from his foot, and spit in his face, and say: So shall it be done to the man that will not build up his brother’s house:
10 Ngʼatno kothgi nongʼere e Israel kaka koth joma ne olony wuochegi.
And his name shall be called in Israel, the house of the unshod.
11 Ka ji ariyo dhawo kae to chi ngʼat achiel kuomgi obiro konyo chwore, mi omake gi duongʼne,
If two men have words together, and one begin to fight against the other, and the other’s wife willing to deliver her husband out of the hand of the stronger, shall put forth her hand, and take him by the secrets,
12 to dhakono nyaka ngʼad lwete, kendo kik timne ngʼwono.
Thou shalt cut off her hand, neither shalt thou be moved with any pity in her regard.
13 Kik ubed gi rapim ariyo e okapu magu mamoro pek to moro yot.
Thou shalt not have divers weights in thy bag, a greater and a less:
14 Bende kik ubed gi rapim ariyo e uteu mag pimo, ma moro duongʼ to moro tin.
Neither shall there be in thy house a greater bushel and a less.
15 Nyaka ubed gi gige pimo mowinjore kendo makare mondo udagi amingʼa e piny ma Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu miyou.
Thou shalt have a just and a true weight, and thy bushel shall be equal and true: that thou mayest live a long time upon the land which the Lord thy God shall give thee.
16 Nimar Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu mon gi joma timo gik ma kamago; ngʼat matimo gi mibadhi.
For the Lord thy God abhorreth him that doth these things, and he hateth all injustice.
17 Paruru gima ne jo-Amalek otimonu kane uwuok Misri.
Remember what Amalec did to thee in the way when thou camest out of Egypt:
18 Kane uol kendo tekou norumo, negimonjou e yo ma ginego joma ne wuoth oolo; kendo ne ok giluoro Nyasaye.
How he met thee: and slew the hindmost of the army, who sat down, being weary, when thou wast spent with hunger and labour, and he feared not God.
19 Emomiyo ka Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu osemiyou kwe e piny mobiro miyou mondo ukaw kaka girkeni, to kik wiu wil ma ok utieko jo-Amalek duto.
Therefore when the Lord thy God shall give thee rest, and shall have subdued all the nations round about in the land which he hath promised thee: thou shalt blot out his name from under heaven. See thou forget it not.
