Rapar Mar Chik 8
1 Beduru motangʼ kurito chike duto ma amiyou kawuononi, mondo omi ubed mangima kendo unyaa mi udonji e piny ma Jehova Nyasaye nosingore ni nomi kwereu.
“You must faithfully obey all the commandments that I am giving you today. If you do that, you will live [a long time], you will become very numerous, and you will occupy the land that Yahweh solemnly promised your ancestors that he would give [to you].
2 Parieuru kaka Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu ne otelonu ka ukalo e piny motwo kuom higni piero angʼwen-gi duto, mondo opuonju bolruok, kopimo paro ma un-godo e chunyu ka bende unyalo rito chikene.
And do not forget how Yahweh our God led us as we traveled through the desert during these past 40 years. He [caused you to have many problems/difficulties], because he wanted to cause you to realize that you needed to trust him and not yourselves. And he wanted to test you, to find out what you intended to do [IDM], whether you would obey his commandments or not.
3 Nodwokou piny momiyo kech okayou, eka bangʼe nomiyou manna mondo ucham ma en chiemo mane pok uneno ma kata mana kwereu bende ne pok oneno. Notimonu kamano mondo opuonjugo ni dhano ok bed mangima nikech chiemo kende to nikech wach ka wach moa e dho Jehova Nyasaye.
So he caused you to have/experience difficulties. He allowed you to become hungry. Then he gave you manna [food from heaven], food that you and your ancestors had never eaten before. He did that to teach you that people need food [for their bodies]; but [they also need food for their spirits, which comes from paying attention to] everything that Yahweh says [MTY].
4 Lepu ne ok oti kendo tiendeu ne ok opudhore kata okuot kuom higni piero angʼwen-go duto.
During those 40 years [of walking through the desert], our clothes did not wear out and our feet did not swell [from walking a very long way through the desert].
5 Ngʼeuru e chunyu ni kaka ngʼato kumo wuode, omiyo Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu bende koro kumou.
Do not forget that Yahweh our God disciplines us, like parents discipline their children.
6 Rituru chike duto mag Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu, kuwuotho e yorene bende ka umiye luor.
“Do obey the commandments of Yahweh our God, and conduct your lives as he wants you to do, and revere him.
7 Nimar Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu kelou e piny maber, piny man-gi aore kod pi maber, man-gi thidhna mamol e holo koa e gode;
He is about to bring you into a good/fertile land, which has streams which flow down from the hills and pour/flow out of springs in the valleys.
8 ma en piny machiego ngano kod shairi, mzabibu kod ngʼowu, olemo mongʼinore, zeituni kod mor kich.
It is a land on which wheat and barley grow, a land where there are fig trees and pomegranates, and a land where there are olive trees and honey.
9 Pinyno nobed gi chiemo mangʼeny, bende ok unuchand gimoro; en piny ma kite mayudore gin nyinyo kendo en piny ma mula unyalo kunyo e godene.
It is a land where there will be plenty of food for you, where you will (not lack anything/have everything that you need) [LIT], a land which has iron [ore] in its rocks and from which you can dig copper [ore] from its hills.
10 Ka usechiemo ma uyiengʼ, to pakuru Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu kuom piny maber ma osemiyou.
[Every day] you will eat until your stomachs are full, and you will thank Yahweh our God for the fertile/good land that he has given you.
11 Beduru motangʼ mondo kik wiu wil kod Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu, ka uweyo luwo yorene, chikene kod buchene ma amiyou kawuononi.
But, [when that happens], be sure not to forget Yahweh our God by disobeying his commandments and rules and regulations that I am giving to you today.
12 Ka ok kamano, ka usechiemo ma uyiengʼ, ka usegero ute mabeyo ma udakie
When your stomachs are full [every day], and when you have built good houses and are living in them,
13 ka dhou kod jambu omedore, fedha kod dhahabu bende omedore ma gik ma un-godo duto omedore
and when the number of your cattle and sheep has greatly increased, and when you have accumulated a large amount of silver and gold, and the amount of all your other possessions has greatly increased,
14 to chunyu biro donjo e sunga ma wiu nowil kod Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu, mane ogolou Misri, e piny mane unie wasumbini.
be sure that you do not become proud [IDM] and forget Yahweh our God, who rescued your ancestors from being slaves in Egypt and brought them out from there.
15 Ne otelonu kokalo piny malach mar ongoro piny motwo maonge kata pi, motingʼo thuonde kwiri kod thomoni, ne omiyou pi koa e lwanda matek.
Do not forget that he led them [while they traveled] through that huge and terrible desert, where there were poisonous snakes and scorpions. And do not forget that where the ground was very dry and there was no water, he caused water to flow for them out of (solid/very hard) rock.
16 Ne omiyou manna ma uchamo e thim gimane kwereu ne ok ongʼeyo, mondo omi ubed ka uboloru kendo ka otemou mondo giko udhi maber.
Do not forget that in that desert he gave your ancestors manna to eat, food that they had never eaten before. He [caused them to have/experience many problems/difficulties], because he wanted them to realize that they needed to trust him and not themselves. And he wanted to test them, to find out whether they intended to obey him, in order that when [those difficulties] ended, he would do many good things for them.
17 Unyalo wacho e chunyu niya, “Tekona kod lucha kod tich lweta ema omiyo ayudo mwandugi.”
Be sure that you do not think to yourselves, ‘I have acquired all these things by my own power [MTY] and ability.’
18 To par Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachi, nimar en ema omiyi teko mar loso mwandu, kochopogo singruok mare mane osingore gi kwereu mana kaka en kawuononi.
Do not forget that it is Yahweh our God who has enabled you to become rich. He does this because he faithfully does what he solemnly promised our ancestors that he would do.
19 Kapo ni wiu owil gi Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu ma uluwo nyiseche moko, ulamo kendo ukulorunegi, to akwongʼora kawuononi ni notieku maonge kiawa.
“solemnly warn you that if you forget Yahweh our God and turn to other gods and start to serve them and worship them, you will certainly be destroyed.
20 Mana kaka ogendini mane Jehova Nyasaye otieko e wangʼu kuneno, omiyo un bende ibiro tieku nikech ok uluoro Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu.
If you do not obey Yahweh our God, he will certainly destroy you just like he will destroy the people-groups that you will fight against.”
