Ezekiel 20

1 Tarik apar dwe mar abich e higa mar abiriyo, jodong Israel moko nobiro ira mondo openj wach kuom Jehova Nyasaye mine girito mondo giwinj tiend wachno.

And in the seuenth yeere, in the fift moneth, the tenth day of the moneth, came certaine of the elders of Israel to enquire of the Lord, and sate before me.

2 Eka wach Jehova Nyasaye nobirona kama:

Then came the worde of the Lord vnto me, saying,

3 Wuod dhano, wuo gi jodong Israel kendo iwachnegi ni ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto wacho, Bende unyalo biro ira adier mondo upenja wach? Akwongʼora gi nyinga awuon ni ok abi yienu upenja wach, Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto osewacho.

Sonne of man, speake vnto the Elders of Israel, and say vnto them, Thus saith the Lord God, Are ye come to enquire of me? as I liue, sayth the Lord God, when I am asked, I wil not answer you.

4 Donge ibiro ngʼadonegi bura? Donge ibiro ngʼadonegi bura, wuod dhano? Ka en kamano, to mi gingʼe timbe mamono mag kweregi

Wilt thou iudge them, sonne of man? wilt thou iudge them? cause them to vnderstand the abominations of their fathers,

5 kendo iwachnegi ni ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto wacho: E odiechiengʼ mane ayieroe Israel, ne asingora ni dhood joka Jakobo kendo ne afwenyoranegi e piny Misri. Ne asingoranegi ka awachonegi niya, “An e Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu.”

And say vnto them, Thus saith the Lord God, In the day when I chose Israel, and lift vp mine hand vnto the seede of the house of Iaakob, and made my selfe knowen vnto them in the land of Egypt, when I lift vp mine hand vnto them, and sayd, I am the Lord your God,

6 Chiengʼno ne asingoranegi ni anagolgi e piny Misri mi atergi e piny mane asemanyo mi ayudonegi, ma en piny mopongʼ gi chak kod mor kich kendo piny maber moloyo pinje duto.

In the day that I lift vp mine hand vnto them to bring them forth of the land of Egypt, into a land that I had prouided for them, flowing with milke and hony which is pleasant among all lands,

7 Kendo ne awachonegi niya, “Neuru ni ngʼato ka ngʼato kuomu owito kido manono ma usechomo wengeu kuomgi kendo kik udok mogak kuom lamo nyiseche manono mag Misri. An e Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu.”

Then sayd I vnto them, Let euery man cast away the abominations of his eyes, and defile not your selues with the idols of Egypt: for I am the Lord your God.

8 To ne gingʼanyona kendo negitamore winja; ne ok giwito kido manono mane gisechomo wengegi kuome kagilamo, bende ne ok giweyo nyiseche manono mag jo-Misri. Omiyo ne awacho ni abiro olo mirimba mager kuomgi ka aketo mirimba kuomgi e piny Misri.

But they rebelled against me, and would not heare me: for none cast away the abominations of their eyes, neither did they forsake the idoles of Egypt: then I thought to powre out mine indignation vpon them, and to accomplish my wrath against them in the mids of the land of Egypt.

9 To nikech nyinga, ne atimo gima ne nyalo miyo kik yanye e nyim ogendini mane gidak e diergi, kendo mane ongʼeyo ni ne asefwenyora ni jo-Israel kane agologi e piny Misri.

But I had respect to my Name, that it should not be polluted before the heathen, among whome they were, and in whose sight I made my selfe knowen vnto them in bringing them forth of the land of Egypt.

10 Kuom mano ne agologi e piny Misri mi akelogi e piny motimo ongoro.

Nowe I caried them out of the land of Egypt, and brought them into the wildernes.

11 Ne amiyogi buchena kendo ne amiyo gingʼeyo chikena, nikech ngʼat marito buchena gi chikena ema biro bedo mangima.

And I gaue them my statutes, and declared my iudgements vnto them, which if a man doe, he shall liue in them.

12 Bende ne amiyogi Sabato maga kaka ranyisi e kinda kodgi, mondo omi gingʼe ni an Jehova Nyasaye ema ne amiyo gibedo maler.

Moreouer I gaue them also my Sabbaths to be a signe betweene me and them, that they might knowe that I am the Lord, that sanctifie them.

13 Kata kamano, jo-Israel nongʼanyona e thim. Ne ok giluwo buchena, kendo ne gidagi rito chikena. Ne ok girito chikena kata obedo ni chikego miyo gibedo mangima ok girito Sabato maga. Omiyo ne awacho ni abiro olo mirimba kuomgi kendo abiro tiekogi e thim.

But the house of Israel rebelled against me in the wildernes: they walked not in my statutes, and they cast away my iudgements, which if a man doe, he shall liue in them, and my Sabbaths haue they greatly polluted: then I thought to powre out mine indignation vpon them in the wildernes to consume them,

14 To nikech nyinga, ne atimo gimane nyalo miyo kik yanye e nyim ogendini mane oneno ka agologi e diergi.

But I had respect to my Name, that it shoulde not bee polluted before the heathen in whose sight I brought them out.

15 Bende ne asingoranegi e thim nine ok abi kelogi nyaka e piny mane asemiyogi, ma en piny mopongʼ gi chak kod mor kich, kendo en piny maber moloyo pinje duto

Yet neuerthelesse, I lift vp mine hande vnto them in the wildernes that I would not bring them into the lande, which I had giuen them, flowing with milke and hony, which was pleasant aboue all landes,

16 nikech ne gidagi luwo chikena gi buchena kendo ne ok girito Sabato maga. Ne ok atimo kamano nikech chunjegi ne otwere kuom nyisechegi manono.

Because they cast away my iudgments, and walked not in my statutes, but haue polluted my Sabbaths: for their heart went after their idoles.

17 To kata kamano ne akechogi kendo ne ok anegogi kata tiekogi chuth e thim.

Neuerthelesse, mine eye spared them, that I would not destroye them, neither would I consume them in the wildernes.

18 Ne awachone nyithindgi e thim niya, “Weuru luwo puonj mane wuoneu oketo kata rito chike mag-gi, kendo kik udwanyru gi nyisechegi manono.

But I said vnto their children in the wildernes, Walke ye not in the ordinances of your fathers, neither obserue their maners, nor defile your selues with their idoles.

19 An Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu; luwuru buchena kendo rituru chikena maber.

I am the Lord your God: walke in my statutes, and keepe my iudgements and doe them,

20 Rituru Sabato maga e yo maler, mondo gibedi ranyisi e kinda kodu. Eka unungʼe ni An e Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu.”

And sanctifie my Sabbaths, and they shall bee a signe betweene mee and you, that ye may knowe that I am the Lord your God.

21 To nyithindogo nongʼanyona kama: Ne ok giluwo buchena, ne ok girito chikena, kata obedo ni ngʼat moritogi bedo mangima, kendo ne ok girito Sabato maga. Omiyo ne awacho ni ne abiro olo mirimba kuomgi kendo tiekogi e thim.

Notwithstanding the children rebelled against mee: they walked not in my statutes, nor kept my iudgements to doe them, which if a man doe, hee shall liue in them, but they polluted my Sabbaths: then I thought to powre out mine indignation vpon them, and to accomplish my wrath against them in the wildernes.

22 To ne angʼwononegi ma ok atimo kamano mondo nyinga kik kethre e kind ogendini mane oneno kagolo jo-Israel e piny Misri.

Neuerthelesse I withdrew mine hand and had respect to my Name that it should not be polluted before the heathen, in whose sight I brought them foorth.

23 Ne asingoranegi e thim kakwongʼora ni abiro keyogi e dier ogendini e piny ngima,

Yet I lift vp mine hande vnto them in the wildernes, that I would scatter them among the heathen, and disperse them through the countreys,

24 nikech ne ok girito chikena gi buchena kendo ne ok girito Sabato maga, ka chunygi osiko kagombo nyiseche manono mag kweregi.

Because they had not executed my iudgements, but had cast away my statutes and had polluted my Sabbaths, and their eyes were after their fathers idoles.

25 Ne aweyogi bende mondo oritgi gi buche maricho kendo e bwo chike mane ok nyal rito ngimagi.

Wherefore I gaue them also statutes that were not good, and iudgements, wherein they should not liue.

26 Ne aweyogi thuolo mondo chiwo mane gigolo omi gidok mogak; ma en misango mar nyithindgi duto makayo, mondo omi kihondko omakgi eka gingʼe ni An e Jehova Nyasaye!

And I polluted them in their owne giftes in that they caused to passe by the fire all that first openeth ye wombe, that I might destroy them, to the ende, that they might know that I am ye Lord.

27 “Kuom mano, wuod dhano, wuo gi Israel kendo iwachnegi ni, ‘Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto wacho: Ma e yo machielo ma kwereu noweyago kayanya:

Therefore, sonne of man, speake vnto the house of Israel, and say vnto them, Thus saith the Lord God, Yet in this your fathers haue blasphemed me, though they had before grieuously transgressed against me.

28 Kane akelogi e piny mane asingora ni anamigi, to kane gineno wi thur moro amora gi yien moloth to negitimo misenginigi kanyo, kendo negigolo chiwo mag-gi mane ochiewo mirimba, kendo ne giwangʼo ubani madungʼ tik mangʼwe ngʼar kendo gipuko misangogi miolo piny.

For when I had brought them into the land, for the which I lifted vp mine hand to giue it to them, then they saw euery hie hill, and all the thicke trees, and they offred there their sacrifices, and there they presented their offering of prouocation: there also they made their sweete sauour, and powred out there their drinke offerings.

29 Eka nawacho nigi ni: Withur musiko kudhiye ni to nangʼo?’” Kanyo pod iluongo ni Bama nyaka chil kawuono.

Then I saide vnto them, What is the hie place whereunto ye goe? And the name thereof was called Bamah vnto this day.

30 Kuom mano, wachne dhood Israel kama: Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto wacho: Un bende ubiro dwanyoru kaka kwereu notimo ka gilamo nyisechegi manono?

Wherefore, say vnto the house of Israel, Thus saith the Lord God, Are ye not polluted after the maner of your fathers? and commit ye not whoredome after their abominations?

31 Ka uchiwo mich kendo uchiwo yawuotu kaka misango miwangʼo e mach, to mano nyiso ni pod udwanyoru mana gi nyisecheu manono nyaka kawuono. Bende dayienu mondo upenja wach adier, yaye dhood Israel? Akwongʼora gi nyinga awuon, an Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto ni ok abi yienu upenja wach.

For when you offer your giftes, and make your sonnes to passe through the fire, you pollute your selues with all your idoles vnto this day: shall I answere you when I am asked, O house of Israel? As I liue, saith the Lord God, I wil not answere you when I am asked.

32 Ka uparo ni udwaro chalo gi ogendini mamoko, kata ka dhoudi moa e pinje mamoko malamo gik mopa ma gin bao kod kidi, to mano ok bi timore.

Neither shall that be done that commeth into your minde: for ye say, We wil be as the heathen, and as the families of the countreys, and serue wood, and stone.

33 Akwongʼora gi nyinga awuon, an Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto ni abiro tiyou gi tekona duto gi mirimba mager.

As I liue, saith the Lord God, I will surely rule you with a mightie hand, and with a stretched out arme, and in my wrath powred out,

34 Abiro golou gi tekona duto gi mirimba mager e dier ogendini ka ua e pinje duto mosekeue.

And will bring you from the people, and will gather you out of the countreys, wherein ye are scattered, with a mighty hand, and with a stretched out arme, and in my wrath powred out,

35 Abiro terou e thim mag ogendini kendo kuno ema anangʼadnue bura e wangʼu kuneno.

And I will bring you into the wildernes of the people, and there wil I pleade with you face to face.

36 Kaka ne ayalo kwereu e thim mar piny Misri, e kaka abiro yalou, Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto osewacho.

Like as I pleaded with your fathers in the wildernes of the lande of Egypt, so will I pleade with you, saith the Lord God.

37 Abiro kwanou achiel achiel ka un e bwo lochna, kendo abiro miyo ubed joma orito singruokna.

And I wil cause you to passe vnder the rod, and wil bring you into the bond of the couenant.

38 Abiro pogou gi joma osiko kedo koda kendo ngʼanyona, kata obedo ni abiro gologi oko e piny ma gidake sani, to ok ginidonj e piny Israel. Eka unungʼe ni An e Jehova Nyasaye.

And I wil chuse out from among you the rebels, and them that transgresse against mee: I will bring them out of the land where they dwel, and they shall not enter into the lande of Israel, and you shall knowe that I am the Lord.

39 “To in, yaye dhood Israel, ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto wacho: Dhiuru uti ne nyisecheu, un duto ngʼato gi ngʼato! To gikone ni ubiro luora kendo ok unumi nyinga maler kethre kuom chiwo mich ni nyisecheu manono.

As for you, O house of Israel, thus saith the Lord God, Goe you, and serue euery one his idole, seeing that ye will not obey me, and pollute mine holy Name no more with your giftes and with your idoles.

40 Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto wacho niya: Ewi goda maler, ma en got mabor mar Israel, kendo e piny nogono, dhood Israel duto kar rombgi biro tiyonae, kendo kanyo ema anarwakgie. Kanyo ema anadwarie chiwo mau kod mich mau mabeyo moloyo, kaachiel gi misengni mau duto maler.

For in mine holy mountaine, euen in the hie mountaine of Israel, saith the Lord God, there shall all the house of Israel, and all in the lande, serue me: there will I accept them, and there will I require your offrings and the first fruites of your oblations, with all your holy things.

41 Abiro rwakou kaka ubani madungʼ tik mangʼwe ngʼar ka anagolu ua e dier ogendini kendo ka anachoku ua e pinje ma osekeue, kendo ananyisranu kaka ngʼama ler e dieru ka ogendini neno gi wengegi.

I will accept your sweete sauour, when I bring you from the people, and gather you out of the countreys, wherein ye haue bene scattered, that I may be sanctified in you before ye heathen.

42 Eka unungʼe ni An e Jehova Nyasaye, ka anaduogu e piny Israel, piny mane asingora kakwongʼora ni anami kwereu.

And ye shall knowe, that I am the Lord, when I shall bring you into the land of Israel, into the land, for the which I lifted vp mine hande to giue it to your fathers.

43 Kanyo ema unuparie timbeu kod yoreu duto ma usedwanyorugo, kendo ok unubed mamor gi timbe mamono duto musetimo.

And there shall ye remember your wayes, and all your workes, wherein ye haue bene defiled, and ye shall iudge your selues worthy to be cut off, for all your euils, that ye haue committed.

44 Unungʼe ni An e Jehova Nyasaye, ka anati e dieru nikech nyinga, to ok nikech yoreu maricho kod timbeu mobam, yaye dhood Israel, Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto osewacho.”

And ye shall knowe, that I am the Lord, when I haue respect vnto you for my Names sake, and not after your wicked wayes, nor according to your corrupt workes, O ye house of Israel, saith the Lord God.

45 Wach Jehova Nyasaye nobirona kama:

Moreouer, the worde of the Lord came vnto me, saying,

46 Wuod dhano, chom wangʼi yo milambo; yal wach kuom jo-milambo kendo ikor wach kuom bungu manie piny milambo.

Sonne of man, set thy face toward the way of Teman, and drop thy word toward the South, and prophecie towarde the forest of the fielde of the South,

47 Wach ni bungu man yo milambo kama: Winj wach Jehova Nyasaye. Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto wacho: Achiegni moko mach kuomi, kendo obiro tieko yiendegi duto, manumu kaachiel gi motwo. Mach mabebni ok nonegi, kendo ji duto kochakore milambo nyaka nyandwat, majni norew wengegi.

And say to the forest of the South, Heare the worde of the Lord: thus saith the Lord God, Beholde, I will kindle a fire in thee, and it shall deuoure all the greene wood in thee, and all the drie wood: the continuall flame shall not bee quenched, and euery face from the South to the North shall be burnt therein.

48 Ji duto none ni an Jehova Nyasaye ema asemoko majno, kendo ok notho.

And all flesh shall see, that I the Lord haue kindled it, and it shall not bee quenched.

49 Eka nawacho niya, “Yaye Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto, giwuoyo kuoma kagiwacho ni, ‘Donge owuoyonwa mana gi ngeche?’”

Then saide I, Ah Lord God, they say of me, Doeth not he speake parables?
