Wuok 33

1 Eka Jehova Nyasaye nowacho ne Musa niya, “Wuoguru ka in kaachiel gi jok mane igolo e piny Misri kendo dhiuru e piny mane asingo ka akwongʼora ne Ibrahim, Isaka kod Jakobo kawachonegi ni, ‘Anamiye nyikwau.’

And the LORD said to Moses, Depart [and] go up hence, thou and the people which thou hast conducted from the land of Egypt, to the land which I swore to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, saying, to thy seed will I give it:

2 Abiro oro Malaika mondo otel e nyimu kendo obiro riembo jo-Kanaan gi jo-Amor gi jo-Hiti gi jo-Perizi gi jo-Hivi kod jo-Jebus.

And I will send an angel before thee; and I will drive out the Canaanite, the Amorite, and the Hittite, and the Perizzite, the Hivite, and the Jebusite:

3 Dhiuru e piny mopongʼ gi chak kod mor kich. To ok anadhi kodu nikech un oganda ma tokgi tek kendo dipo ka atiekou e wangʼ yo.”

To a land flowing with milk and honey: for I will not go up in the midst of thee; for thou [art] a stiff-necked people: lest I consume thee in the way.

4 Kane oganda owinjo weche manyoso chunygo negichako ywak maonge ngʼama nolichore gi gimoro amora e dende.

And when the people heard these evil tidings, they mourned: and no man put on him his ornaments.

5 Nimar Jehova Nyasaye nosewacho ni Musa niya, “Nyis jo-Israel kama, ‘Un oganda ma tokgi tek. Ka anyalo dhi kodu kata matin, to anyalo tiekou. Koro goluru oko gik mulichogo dendu eka anane gima anyalo timo kodu.’”

For the LORD had said to Moses, Say to the children of Israel, Ye [are] a stiff-necked people: I will come up into the midst of thee in a moment, and consume thee: therefore now put off thy ornaments from thee, that I may know what to do to thee.

6 Kuom mano jo-Israel nogolo oko gik mane gilichogo dendgi ka gin e tiend Got Horeb.

And the children of Israel stripped themselves of their ornaments, by the mount Horeb.

7 Koro Musa nohero kawo Hema kendo gure oko mar Kambi mochwalore matin koluonge ni “Hemb Romo.” Ngʼato angʼata mane dwaro penjo Jehova Nyasaye wach ne dhi e Hemb Romo oko mar kambi.

And Moses took the tabernacle, and pitched it without the camp far from the camp, and called it the Tabernacle of the congregation. And it came to pass, [that] every one who sought the LORD, went out to the tabernacle of the congregation, which [was] without the camp.

8 Kinde moro amora mane Musa odhi oko e Hema to ji duto ne wuok kendo chungʼ e dhoutgi mag hema ka gingʼiyo Musa nyaka chop odonji.

And it came to pass when Moses went out to the tabernacle, [that] all the people rose, and stood every man at his tent-door, and looked after Moses, until he had gone into the tabernacle.

9 Kane Musa dhi e Hema to bor polo ne lor piny kendo siko e dhoot ka Jehova Nyasaye wuoyo gi Musa.

And it came to pass, as Moses entered into the tabernacle, the cloudy pillar descended, and stood [at] the door of the tabernacle, and [the LORD] talked with Moses.

10 Kinde mane oganda oneno bor polono kochungʼ e dho Hema gin bende negichungʼ mi gilam ka ngʼato ka ngʼato nitie e dho Hembe.

And all the people saw the cloudy pillar stand [at] the tabernacle door: and all the people rose and worshiped, every man [in] his tent-door.

11 Jehova Nyasaye ne wuoyo gi Musa wangʼ gi wangʼ mana ka ngʼato ma wuoyo gi osiepne. Bangʼ mano Musa noduogo e kambi, to Joshua wuod Nun, ma en wuowi mane konye nodongʼ mana e Hema.

And the LORD spoke to Moses face to face, as a man speaketh to his friend. And he turned again into the camp; but his servant Joshua the son of Nun, a young man, departed not out of the tabernacle.

12 Musa nowacho ne Jehova Nyasaye niya, “Isebedo ka iwachona ni, ‘Telne jogi,’ to pok imiya ngʼeyo ngʼatno ma ibiro oro koda. Isewacho niya, ‘Angʼeyi gi nyingi kendo amor kodi.’

And Moses said to the LORD, See, thou sayest to me, Bring up this people: and thou hast not let me know whom thou wilt send with me. Yet thou hast said, I know thee by name, and thou hast also found grace in my sight.

13 Ka imor koda to puonja yoreni mondo angʼeyi kendo mondo asik ka amori. Par ni ogandani gin jogi.”

Now therefore, I pray thee, if I have found grace in thy sight, show me now thy way, that I may know thee, that I may find grace in thy sight: and consider that this nation [is] thy people.

14 Jehova Nyasaye nodwoke niya, “An awuon abiro dhi kodi kendo kwe mara nobed kodi.”

And he said, My presence shall attend [thee], and I will give thee rest.

15 Eka Musa nowacho niya, “Ka in iwuon ok idhi kodwa, to kik igolwa ka.

And he said to him, If thy presence shall not attend me, conduct us not hence.

16 Ere kaka ngʼato dingʼe ni imor koda kaachiel gi jogigi makmana ka idhi kodwa? Koso en angʼo ma dipoga gi jogigi kod ogendini mamoko mantie e piny?”

For wherein shall it be known here that I and thy people have found grace in thy sight? [Is it] not in that thou goest with us? So shall we be separated, I and thy people, from all the people that [are] upon the face of the earth.

17 Eka Jehova Nyasaye nowacho ne Musa niya, “Abiro timo mana gino ma isekwayo nimar amor kodi kendo angʼeyi gi nyingi.”

And the LORD said to Moses, I will do this thing also that thou hast spoken: for thou hast found grace in my sight, and I know thee by name.

18 Eka Musa nowachone niya, “Koro nyisa duongʼni.”

And he said, I beseech thee, show me thy glory.

19 Kendo Jehova Nyasaye nowachone niya, “Abiro miyo duongʼna duto kadho e nyimi kendo abiro hulo nyinga ma en Jehova Nyasaye e nyimi. Anakech ngʼama adwaro kecho kendo anangʼwon-ne ngʼama adwaro ngʼwonone.”

And he said, I will make all my goodness pass before thee, and I will proclaim the name of the LORD before thee; and will be gracious to whom I will be gracious, and will show mercy on whom I will show mercy.

20 Nowacho bende niya “Ok inyal neno wangʼa, nimar onge ngʼama nyalo nena mi dok mangima.”

And he said, Thou canst not see my face: for there shall no man see me, and live.

21 Eka Jehova Nyasaye nowacho niya, “Nitie wi lwanda moro buta ka ma inyalo chungʼie.

And the LORD said, Behold, [there is] a place by me, and thou shalt stand upon a rock:

22 Ka duongʼna kadho to abiro pandi e rogo mar lwanda kendo abiro umi gi lweta nyaka chop akadhi.

And it shall come to pass, while my glory passeth by, that I will put thee in a cleft of the rock: and will cover thee with my hand while I pass by:

23 Eka abiro golo lweta kuomi mi inine mana ngʼeya, to wangʼa to ok nine.”

And I will take away my hand, and thou shalt see my back parts: but my face shall not be seen.
