Wuok 32
1 Kane ji oneno ni Musa osedeko ewi got, negichokore ma gilworo Harun kendo giwachone niya, “Bi mondo ilosnwa nyiseche ma biro dhi nyimwa, nimar ok wangʼeyo gima osetimore ne Musa mane ogolowa ka waa e piny Misri.”
And, when the people saw that Moses delayed to come down out of the mount, the people gathered themselves together unto Aaron, and said unto him—Up, make for us gods, who shall go before us, for, as for this Moses—the man who brought us up out of the land of Egypt, we know not what hath befallen him.
2 Harun nodwokogi niya, “Kawuru sitadi mag dhahabu ma yawuotu kod nyiu orwako mondo ukelna.”
And Aaron said unto them, Break off the rings of gold, which are in the ears of your wives, of your sons and of your daughters, —and bring them unto me.
3 Kuom mano, ji duto nokawo sitadigi mi gikelogi ne Harun.
And all the people of themselves brake off the rings of gold which were in their ears, and brought them unto Aaron.
4 Nokawo gik mane omiyego monywaso kendo olosogo kido machalo gi mar nyaroya. Eka nowachonegi niya, “Magi e nyisecheu mane ogolou e piny Misri, yaye Israel.”
And he received [the gold] at their hand, and fashioned it with a graving tool, and made it a molten calf, and they said—These, are thy gods, O Israel, who brought thee up, out of the land of Egypt.
5 Kane Harun oneno kamano, nogero kendo mar misango e nyim nyaroyano kendo nolando niya, “Kiny notim sawo ne Jehova Nyasaye”
And when Aaron saw it, he built an altar before it. And Aaron made proclamation, and said, A festival to Yahweh, to-morrow!
6 Kuom mano, ji nochiewo kinyne kogwen mochiwo misango miwangʼo pep kendo negichiwo misango mag lalruok. Bangʼe negibedo piny mondo gichiem kendo gimethi kendo negia malo mondo gimiel miende dwanyruok.
So they rose up early, on the morrow, and offered ascending-sacrifices, and brought near peace-offerings, and the people sat down, to eat and to drink, and then rose up—to make sport!
7 Eka Jehova Nyasaye nowacho ne Musa niya, “Lor piny idog ir jogi mane igolo kawuok e piny Misri nikech gisekethore”
Then spake Yahweh unto Moses—Go get thee down, for thy people whom thou hast brought up out of the land of Egypt have corrupted themselves.
8 Giselokore mapiyo nono ka giweyo chike mane amiyogi kendo giseloso nyasaye maket gi nyaroya. Gisekulorene piny kendo gisechiwone misango mi giwacho niya, “Magi e nyisecheu mane ogolou e piny Misri, yaye Israel.”
They have turned aside quickly out of the way which I commanded them, they have made for themselves—a molten calf, and have bowed themselves down thereto and have sacrificed thereto, and have said. These, are thy gods, O Israel, who have brought thee up out of the land of Egypt.
9 Jehova Nyasaye nowacho ne Musa niya, “Aseneno jogi kendo gin joma tokgi tek.
So then Yahweh said unto Moses, —I have looked on this people, and lo! a stiff-necked people, it is.
10 Kuom mano, koro weya mondo mirimba mager otiekgi. Bangʼe to anaketi ibed oganda maduongʼ.”
Now, therefore, let me alone, that mine anger may kindle upon them and that I may consume them, and may make of thee a great nation.
11 To Musa nokwayo Jehova Nyasaye, ma Nyasache kowachone niya, “Yaye Jehova Nyasaye, en angʼo momiyo mirimbi mager ditiek jogi mane igolo gi teko maduongʼ kod lweti maratego kawuok e piny Misri?
And Moses besought the face of Yahweh his God, —and said—Wherefore, O Yahweh, should thine anger kindle upon thy people, whom thou hast brought forth out of the land of Egypt with great might and with a firm hand?
12 Angʼo momiyo dimi jo-Misri wuo gi ngʼayi kawacho ni, ‘Nogologi gi chuny marach mondo otiekgi ewi gode kendo mondo otiekgi e wangʼ piny?’ Kuom mano, we mirimbi mager, mondo ilok chunyi kik ikel kethruok ni jogi.
Wherefore should the Egyptians speak saying—For mischief, hath he taken them forth to slay them among the mountains, and to make an end of them from off the face of the ground? Turn thou from the kindling of thine anger, and be grieved over the calamity to thy people,
13 Par jotichni Ibrahim, Isaka kod Jakobo mane ikwongʼorini in iwuon kiwacho ni, ‘Abiro keto nyikwayi mondo obed mangʼeny kaka sulwe mar kor polo bende abiro miyo nyikwayi pinyni duto mane asingonegi ni nobed mwandugi nyaka chiengʼ.’”
Have remembrance of Abraham, of Isaac and of Israel thy servants to whom thou didst swear by thyself, and didst speak unto them saying, I will multiply your seed, as the stars of the heavens, —and, all this land of which I have spoken, will I give to your seed, and they shall inherit it to times age-abiding.
14 Kuom mano Jehova Nyasaye noloko pache mine ok okelone joge masira mane osewacho.
So then Yahweh was grieved, —over the calamity—which he had spoken of inflicting on his people.
15 Musa nolor koa e got kotingʼo kite ariyo mag Rapar e lwete kendo kitego nondik koni gi koni.
And Moses turned and went down out of the mount, with the two tables of testimony in his hand, —tables written upon on both sides of them, on this and on that, were they written.
16 Kitego ne gin tich Nyasaye; kendo ndiko mane ni kuomgi ne mar Nyasaye.
Now as for, the tables, the work of God, they were, —and, as for the writing, the writing of God, it was, graven upon the tables.
17 Kane Joshua owinjo koko mane ji goyo nowacho ne Musa niya, “Mahu mar lweny wuok e kambi.”
And Joshua heard the noise of the people as they shouted, —so he said unto Moses—The noise of war, in the camp!
18 To Musa nodwoke niya, “Ok en mahu mar loch kata ywak mar joma olo e lweny; to en mana koko mar wer ema awinjo.”
But he said—Not the noise of the cry of heroism, nor yet the noise of the cry of defeat, —the noise of alternate song, do I hear.
19 Kane Musa ochopo machiegni gi kambi koa e tiend got noneno ji kamiel e nyim nyaroya, kendo iye nowangʼ mi nodiro kite mopa mane ni e lwete piny ma gitore matindo tindo.
And it came to pass when he drew near unto the camp, and saw the calf, and the dancings, that the anger of Moses kindled, and he cast out of his hands the tables, and brake them in pieces at the foot of the mountain.
20 Bangʼe nokawo nyaroya mane giseloso mi owangʼe e mach kendo norege mayom kaka mogo mi noruwe gi pi momiyo jo-Israel mondo omodhi.
Then took he the calf which they had made and burned it in the fire, and ground it till it became powder, and strewed it on the face of the waters, and made the sons of Israel drink.
21 Nopenjo Harun niya, “Angʼo mane jogi otimoni momiyo irwakogi e richo maduongʼ kamano?”
And Moses said unto Aaron, What had this people done to thee, —that thou shouldst have brought upon them a great sin?
22 Harun nodwoke niya, “Kik ibed gi ich wangʼ ruodha nimar ingʼeyo kaka chuny jogi osiko kopongʼ gi richo.
And Aaron said, Let not the anger of my lord kindle, —thou thyself, knowest the people, that ready for mischief, they are.
23 Ne giwachona kama, ‘Losnwa nyiseche mabiro telonwa, nimar ok wangʼeyo gima otimo ngʼat ma Musa-ni mane ogolowa e piny Misri.’
So they said to me—Make for us gods, who shall go before us, —for, as for this, Moses—the man who brought us up out of the land of Egypt, we know not what hath befallen him.
24 Kuom mano nawachonegi ni, ‘Ngʼato ka ngʼato man-gi bangli mag dhahabu okaw mondo okel.’ Eka negimiya dhahabu kendo nakete e mach mi aloso nyaroyani!”
And I said to them—Whosoever hath gold let them break it off, So they gave it to me, —and I cast it into the fire, and there came out—this calf.
25 Musa noneno ka ji osenjawni kendo kaka Harun noketogi mi gibedo joma wigi tek ma ijaro gi wasikgi.
And Moses saw the people, that unbridled, they were, —for Aaron had given them the rein, for a whispering, among their enemies.
26 Kuom mano nochungʼ e dhoranga kambi mowacho niya, “Ngʼato angʼata man kor Jehova Nyasaye obi ira.” Kendo jo-Lawi duto nochungʼ e ngʼeye.
So Moses took his stand in the gate of the camp, and said—Who is for Yahweh? …To me! Then gathered unto him all the sons of Levi,
27 Eka nowachonegi niya, “Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye, ma Nyasach Israel wacho: ‘Ngʼato ka ngʼato okaw liganglane. Wuothuru ei kambi duto koni gi koni ka ngʼato ka ngʼato nego owadgi, osiepne kod ngʼat modak bute.’”
And he said to them—Thus, saith Yahweh, God of Israel, Put ye every man his sword upon his thigh, —pass through and return from gate to gate in the camp, and slay ye every man his brother and every man his friend and every man his neighbour.
28 Jo-Lawi notimo kaka Musa nochikogi kendo chiengʼno ji madirom alufu adek nonegi.
So the sons of Levi did, according to the word of Moses, —and there fell from among the people on that day, about three thousand men.
29 Eka Musa nowacho niya, “Un osewalu ni Jehova Nyasaye kawuono nimar ne ulokoru gi oweteu gi yawuotu kendo Jehova Nyasaye osegwedhou kawuono.”
And Moses said—Install yourselves to-day, unto Yahweh, yea every man for his son and for his brother, —so will he bestow upon you to-day, a blessing.
30 Kinyne Musa nowacho ni ji niya, “Usetimo richo maduongʼ to koro abiro dhi ir Jehova Nyasaye nimar dipoka akwayonu Jehova Nyasaye mondo owenu richou.”
And it came to pass, on the morrow, that Moses said unto the people, Ye, have sinned a great sin, —Now, therefore, I must go up unto Yahweh, Peradventure, I may make a propitiatory-covering for your sin.
31 Kuom mano Musa nodok ir Jehova Nyasaye mowacho niya, “Yaye, mano kaka jogi osetimo richo malich, ma giseloso nyisechegi mag dhahabu.
So Moses returned unto Yahweh, and said, —Oh now, this people hath sinned a great sin, and they have made for themselves—gods of gold.
32 To koro kiyie, to wenegi richogi, to ka ok kamano, to ruch nyinga oko e kitabu misendikono.”
Now, therefore, if thou wilt forgive their sin, …but if not, blot me I pray thee out of thy book, which thou hast written,
33 Eka Jehova Nyasaye nodwoko Musa niya, “Ngʼato angʼata motimo richo e nyima ema anaruch nyinge oko e kitabu mara.
And Yahweh said unto Moses, —Him who hath sinned against me, must I blot out of my book.
34 To koro, dhiyo mondo itelne ji kiterogi kama ne awacho kendo malaikana biro telo nyimu. To kata kamano, ka kindena mar kum ochopo to anakumgi nikech richogi.”
Now, therefore, go lead the people to the place of which I spake to thee, lo! my messenger, shall go before thee, —But, in the day when I do visit, then will I visit upon them their sin.
35 Kuom mano, Jehova Nyasaye nogoyo jogo gi tuoche kuom lamo nyaroya mane Harun oloso.
And Yahweh plagued the people, —for what they had done with the calf, which Aaron made.
