Rapar Mar Chik 4

1 Yaye, jo-Israel, winjuru buche kod chike ma amiyou, luwgi mondo udagi kendo mondo ukaw piny ma Jehova Nyasaye, ma Nyasach kwereu miyou.

And now give ear, O Israel, to the laws and the decisions which I am teaching you, and do them; so that life may be yours, and you may go in and take for yourselves the land which the Lord, the God of your fathers, is giving you.

2 Kik umedi kata ugol gimoro amora kuom chik ma amiyou, to rituru chike ma amiyou mag Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu.

Make no addition to the orders which I give you, and take nothing from them, but keep the orders of the Lord your God which I give you.

3 Ne uneno gi wengeu uwegi gima Jehova Nyasaye ne otimo Baal Peor. Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu notieko koa kuomu jogo duto mane oluwo Baal mar Peor,

Your eyes have seen what the Lord did because of Baal-peor: for destruction came from the Lord on all those among you who went after Baal-peor.

4 to ne un uduto mane usiko kupadoru kuom Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu pod ungima nyaka chil kawuono.

But you who kept faith with the Lord are living, every one of you, today.

5 Ne, asepuonjou buche kod chike kaka ne Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasacha nochika, mondo uluw chikenego e piny mudhidonjoe kendo kawo.

I have been teaching you laws and decisions, as I was ordered to do by the Lord my God, so that you might keep them in the land to which you are going to take it for your heritage.

6 Ritgiuru maber, nimar mano ema biro nyiso riekou gi ngʼeyou ni ogendini mamoko mabiro winjo buchegi duto wach niya, “Adier, onge oganda mariek kendo man-gi ngʼeyo koganda maduongʼni.”

So keep these laws and do them; for so will your wisdom and good sense be clear in the eyes of the peoples, who hearing all these laws will say, Truly, this great nation is a wise and far-seeing people.

7 Ere oganda machielo ma ogen man kod nyasachgi machiegni e yo ma Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachwa chiegnigo kodwa e yo moro amora ma walame?

For what great nation has a god so near to them as the Lord our God is, whenever we are turned to him in prayer?

8 Kara ere oganda machielo maduongʼ man kod buche gi chike makare machal gi chike mamiyou kawuononi?

And what great nation has laws and decisions so right as all this law which I put before you today?

9 Beduru motangʼ kendo neuru ni wiu ok owil gi gik museneno gi wangʼu kendo kik uwegi gia e chunyu ka pod ungima. Puonjuru nyithindu kod nyikwau wechegi.

Only take care, and keep watch on your soul, for fear that the things which your eyes have seen go from your memory and from your heart all the days of your life; but let the knowledge of them be given to your children and to your children's children;

10 Paruruane chiengʼ mane uchungʼ e nyim Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu e Horeb, kane owachona niya, “Chok ji e nyima ka mondo giwinj wechena mondo mi gipuonjre luora ndalo duto mag ngimagi kendo bende gipuonj nyithindgi wechegi.”

That day when you were waiting before the Lord your God in Horeb, and the Lord said to me, Make all the people come together, so that hearing my words they may go in fear of me all the days of their life on earth and give this teaching to their children.

11 Ne ubiro machiegni ma uchungʼ e tiend got. Godno mach ne liele mochopo nyaka e polo, ka en-gi rumbi maratengʼ kod mudho mandiwa.

And you came near, waiting at the foot of the mountain; and flames of fire went up from the mountain to the heart of heaven, with dark clouds, and all was black as night.

12 Eka Jehova Nyasaye ne owuoyonu kokalo ei mach. Ne uwinjo dwol kawuok ei mach, to ne ok uneno ngʼat mane wuoyono, to makmana dwol kende ema nuwinjo.

And the voice of the Lord came to you out of the fire: the sound of his words came to your ears but you saw no form; there was nothing but a voice.

13 Ne owachonu singruokne, ma gin Chike Apar, mane ochikou mondo uluw kendo ne ondikogi e kite mopa ariyo.

And he gave you his agreement with you, the ten rules which you were to keep, which he put in writing on the two stones of the law.

14 Kendo Jehova Nyasaye ne owachona e kindeno mondo apuonju buche kod chike ma onego uluw e piny ma udhiye loka Jordan mondo ukaw.

And the Lord gave me orders at that time to make clear to you these laws and decisions, so that you might do them in the land to which you are going, and which is to be your heritage.

15 Ne ok uneno Jehova Nyasaye gi wangʼu e kinde mane uwinjo dwonde koa e mach e got Horeb. Omiyo beduru motangʼ ahinya,

So keep watch on yourselves with care; for you saw no form of any sort on the day when the voice of the Lord came to you in Horeb out of the heart of the fire:

16 mondo kik ubed jo-mibadhi ka uloso nyisecheu uwegi, kata kido moro amora mochwe ka dichwo kata ka dhako,

So that you may not be turned to evil ways and make for yourselves an image in the form of any living thing, male or female,

17 kata ka chiayo moro e piny kata ka winyo mafuyo e kor polo,

Or any beast of the earth, or winged bird of the air,

18 kata ka gimoro amora mochwe mamol e lowo kata ka rech manie pi.

Or of anything which goes flat on the earth, or any fish in the water under the earth.

19 Ka ungʼiyo polo ma uneno chiengʼ, dwe kod sulwe karieny (ma gin gigo manyiso duongʼ mar polo), to kik gimak pachu mi ukulrunegi ka ulamo. Gin gigo ma Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu osemiyo jopinje duto manie piny bwo polo.

And when your eyes are lifted up to heaven, and you see the sun and the moon and the stars, all the army of heaven, do not let yourselves be moved to give them worship, or become the servants of what the Lord has given equally to all peoples under heaven.

20 To un, Jehova Nyasaye noresou mogolou e mach mager kuwuok e piny Misri mondo ubed kaka girkeni mare nyaka chiengʼ, mana kaka un sani.

But the Lord has taken you out of the flaming fire, out of Egypt, to be to him the people of his heritage, as you are today.

21 Jehova Nyasaye nokecho koda nikech un, kendo ne okwongʼoreni ok anangʼad aora Jordan mondo adonji e piny maber ma Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu miyou ka girkeni.

And the Lord was angry with me because of you, and made an oath that I was not to go over Jordan into the good land which the Lord is giving you for your heritage:

22 Abiro tho e pinyni, ok anangʼad aora Jordan, to un uchiegni ngʼado mondo udhi ukaw kereu e piny maberno.

But death is to come to me in this land, I may not go over Jordan: but you will go over and take that good land for your heritage.

23 Beduru motangʼ mondo kik wiu wil gi singruok mane Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu otimo kodu, kik ulos ne un uwegi kido moro amora milamo ma Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu okwero.

Take care that you do not let the agreement of the Lord your God, which he has made with you, go out of your mind, or make for yourselves images of any sort, against the orders which the Lord your God has given you.

24 Nimar Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu en mach matieko gik mowangʼo kendo en Nyasaye ma janyiego.

For the Lord your God is an all-burning fire, and he will not let the honour which is his be given to any other.

25 Bangʼ ka usedak e pinyno kuom higni mangʼeny mi ubedo gi nyithindo kod nyikwau, bangʼe ubedo jo-mibadhi ma uloso kido mopa kendo utimo gik mamono e wangʼ Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu, ka umiye mirima;

If, when you have had children and children's children, and have been living a long time in the land, you are turned to evil ways, and make an image of any sort, and do evil in the eyes of the Lord your God, moving him to wrath:

26 to aluongo polo gi piny mondo obed joneno kuomu kawuono, ni ubiro rumo mapiyo nono e piny ma ubiro kawo loka Jordan.

May heaven and earth be my witnesses against you today, that destruction will quickly overtake you, cutting you off from that land which you are going over Jordan to take; your days will not be long in that land, but you will come to a complete end.

27 Jehova Nyasaye biro keyou e dier ogendini kendo ji manok kuomu ema notony e kind pinje ma Jehova Nyasaye noterue.

And the Lord will send you wandering among the peoples; only a small band of you will be kept from death among the nations where the Lord will send you.

28 Kuno unulamie gik ma dhano oloso gi lwetgi, ma gin nyiseche molos gi bao kata gi kite mopa, gin gik ma ok nyal neno, winjo, chiemo kata winjo tik gimoro.

There you will be the servants of gods, made by men's hands, of wood and stone, having no power of seeing or hearing or taking food or smelling.

29 To ka udwaro Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu kanyo, to unuyude ka umanye gi chunyu duto kod ngimau duto.

But if in those lands you are turned again to the Lord your God, searching for him with all your heart and soul, he will not keep himself from you.

30 Bangʼ ka gigi duto osetimorenu mi ubedo gi chuny mool, eka unuduog ir Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu kendo uluore.

When you are in trouble and all these things have come on you, if, in the future, you are turned again to the Lord your God, and give ear to his voice:

31 Nimar Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu en Nyasaye ma jangʼwono ok enojwangʼu kata tiekou kata wiye wil kod singruok mane otimo gi kwereu kokwongʼore.

Because the Lord your God is a God of mercy, he will not take away his help from you or let destruction overtake you, or be false to the agreement which he made by an oath with your fathers.

32 Penj ane sani gik mane timore chon, ndalo mane pok onywolu, kochakore e ndalo mane Nyasaye ochweyo dhano e piny; penj ane koa e bath polo konchiel nyaka komachielo. Bende gima duongʼ kama osetimore kata gima chal kama osewinji?

Give thought now to the days which are past, before your time, from the day when God first gave life to man on the earth, and searching from one end of heaven to the other, see if such a great thing as this has ever been, or if anything like it has been talked of in story.

33 Bende nitie oganda moro mosewinjo dwond Nyasaye kawuoyo e mach kaka usewinjoni ma obedo mangima?

Has any people ever gone on living after hearing the voice of God out of the heart of the fire as you did?

34 Bende nitiere nyasaye moro mosegolo oganda kuom oganda machielo moselok wasumbini? Koso bende nitiere moro mosetemo timo timbe madongogi gi ranyisi, honni gi lweny kendo gi teko maduongʼ kod bat morie kaka Jehova Nyasaye notimonu e piny Misri e wangʼu kuneno.

Has God ever before taken a nation for himself from out of another nation, by punishments and signs and wonders, by war and by a strong hand and a stretched-out arm and great acts of wonder and fear, as the Lord your God did for you in Egypt, before your very eyes?

35 Osenyisu gigi duto mondo ungʼe ni Jehova Nyasaye en Nyasaye; onge Nyasaye moro ma ok en.

All this he let you see, so that you might be certain that the Lord is God and there is no other.

36 Noyie uwinjo dwonde gie polo mond opuonjugo. Bende noyienu ma uneno mach makakni e piny, kendo nuwinjo dwonde ei majno.

Out of heaven itself his voice came to you, teaching you; and on earth he let you see his great fire; and his words came to your ears out of the heart of the fire.

37 Nikech ne ohero kwereu mi oyiero nyikwagi bangʼ-gi, ne ogolou Misri en owuon kod tekone maduongʼ,

And because of his love for your fathers, he took their seed and made it his, and he himself, present among you, took you out of Egypt by his great power;

38 mondo ogol oko ogendini maroteke moloyou, kokelou e pinygi mondo omiu bedo girkeni kaka en kawuononi.

Driving out before you nations greater and stronger than you, to take you into their land and give it to you for your heritage, as at this day.

39 Yie kendo ikaw odiechiengni obed ei chunyi ni Jehova Nyasaye en Nyasaye e polo malo kendo e piny mwalo. Onge Nyasaye moro machielo.

So today be certain, and keep the knowledge deep in your hearts, that the Lord is God, in heaven on high and here on earth; there is no other God.

40 Emomiyo rituru buchene kod chikene ma amiyou kawuono, mondo gik moko odhi maber kodu gi nyithindu kendo mondo udag amingʼa e piny ma Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu miyou e kinde duto e piny.

Then keep his laws and his orders which I give you today, so that it may be well for you and for your children after you, and that your lives may be long in the land which the Lord your God is giving you for ever.

41 Eka Musa noketo tenge mier adek madongo man yo wuok chiengʼ mar aora Jordan,

Then Moses had three towns marked out on the far side of Jordan looking to the east;

42 ma gin kuonde ma ka ngʼato onego wadgi ka ok ochano, to onyalo ringo dhi pondo kuondego mantie e miechgi madongo mondo ores ngimane.

To which anyone causing the death of his neighbour in error and not through hate, might go in flight; so that in one of these towns he might be kept from death:

43 Mier madongo-go gin magi: Bezer manie pinje gode motwo, mano ne jo-Reuben; Ramoth ei Gilead, obed kar jo-Gad; kendo Golan ei Bashan obed mar jo-Manase.

The names of the towns were Bezer in the waste land, in the table-land, for the Reubenites; and Ramoth in Gilead for the Gadites; and Golan in Bashan for Manasseh.

44 Ma e chik mane Musa omiyo jo-Israel.

This is the law which Moses put before the children of Israel:

45 Magi e weche, buche kod chike mane Musa omiyogi kane giwuok Misri,

These are the rules and the laws and the decisions which Moses gave to the children of Israel after they came out of Egypt;

46 kane gin e holo machiegni gi Beth Peor man yo wuok chiengʼ mar Jordan, e piny Sihon ruodh jo-Amor mane nigi loch Heshbon kendo ne oloye gi Musa kod jo-Israel kane giwuok Misri.

On the far side of Jordan, in the valley facing Beth-peor, in the land of Sihon, king of the Amorites, who was ruling in Heshbon, whom Moses and the children of Israel overcame after they had come out of Egypt:

47 Negikawo pinye gi piny Og ruodh Bashan, mane gin gi ruodhi ariyo mag jo-Amor man loka yo wuok chiengʼ mar Jordan.

And they took his land for a heritage, and the land of Og, king of Bashan, the two kings of the Amorites, whose lands were on the other side of Jordan to the east;

48 Pinyni nochakore Aroer koa e dier holo mar Arnon mochopo nyaka Got Siyon (tiende ni, Hermon),

From Aroer on the edge of the valley of the Arnon as far as Mount Sion, which is Hermon,

49 kendo nokawo gwenge mag Araba man yo wuok chiengʼ mar Jordan, mochopo nyaka Nam mar Araba mantiere e tiend gode mag Pisga.

And all the Arabah on the far side of Jordan to the east, as far as the sea of the Arabah under the slopes of Pisgah.
