Chakruok 1
1 Kar chakruok Nyasaye nochweyo polo gi piny.
In the beginning God created heaven, and earth.
2 Koro piny ne onge kido kendo ne onge gimoro amora e iye. Mudho mandiwa noimo ataro mangʼongo kendo Roho mar Nyasaye ne wuotho ewi atarono.
And the earth was void and empty, and darkness was upon the face of the deep; and the spirit of God moved over the waters.
3 Eka Nyasaye nowacho niya, “Ler mondo obedie,” mi ler nobetie.
And God said: Be light made. And light was made.
4 Nyasaye noneno ni ler ber, kendo ne opogo ler kuom mudho.
And God saw the light that it was good; and he divided the light from the darkness.
5 Nyasaye noluongo ler ni “odiechiengʼ” kendo mudho noluongo ni “otieno.” Piny noyuso, kendo noru ma en chiengʼ mokwongo.
And he called the light Day, and the darkness Night; and there was evening and morning one day.
6 Eka Nyasaye nowacho niya, “Gima pogo pi mondo obedie mondo opog pi gi pige.”
And God said: Let there be a firmament made amidst the waters: and let it divide the waters from the waters.
7 Omiyo Nyasaye noketo gima pogo pi mamalo gi pi ma piny. Kendo nobedo kamano.
And God made a firmament, and divided the waters that were under the firmament, from those that were above the firmament, and it was so.
8 Nyasaye noluongo gima nopogo pigno ni “polo.” Piny noyuso kendo noru, ma en chiengʼ mar ariyo.
And God called the firmament, Heaven; and the evening and morning were the second day.
9 Kendo Nyasaye nowacho niya, “Pi manie bwo polo mondo ochokre kaachiel, kendo lowo motwo obedie.” Kendo notimore kamano.
God also said: Let the waters that are under the heaven, be gathered together into one place: and let the dry land appear. And it was so done.
10 Nyasaye nochako lowo ni “piny” kendo pige mane ochokore nochako ni “nembe.” Kendo Nyasaye noneno ni mano ber.
And God called the dry land, Earth; and the gathering together of the waters, he called Seas. And God saw that it was good.
11 Eka Nyasaye nowacho niya, “Buya nyaka nyag e piny, kothe manyago cham kod yiende manyago olembe man-gi kuthe eigi kaka kitgi obet kendo nobedo kamano.
And he said: Let the earth bring forth the green herb, and such as may seed, and the fruit tree yielding fruit after its kind, which may have seed in itself upon the earth. And it was so done.
12 Buya nonyak e piny: Cham nonywolo kothegi kaka kitgi nobet kendo yiende nonywolo olembe man-gi kodhi kaka kitgi nobet. Kendo Nyasaye noneno ni mano ber.
And the earth brought forth the green herb, and such as yieldeth seed according to its kind, and the tree that beareth fruit, having seed each one according to its kind. And God saw that it was good.
13 Piny noyuso kendo noru, ma en chiengʼ mar adek.”
And the evening and the morning were the third day.
14 Bangʼe Nyasaye nowacho niya, “Ler mondo obedie e kor polo mondo opog odiechiengʼ gi otieno, kendo gibed kaka ranyisi mag lokruok ndalo kod odiechienge, kod higni,
And God said: Let there be lights made in the firmament of heaven, to divide the day and the night, and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days and years:
15 kendo ginibedi ler mae kor polo mondo gi chiw ler e piny.” Kendo nobedo kamano.
To shine in the firmament of heaven, and to give light upon the earth. And it was so done.
16 Nyasaye noloso gik moko ariyo madongo makelo ler; ler maduongʼ ne rito odiechiengʼ, to ler matin ne rito otieno. Sulwe bende noloso.
And God made two great lights: a greater light to rule the day; and a lesser light to rule the night: and the stars.
17 Nyasaye noketogi e kor polo mondo gi chiw ler e piny,
And he set them in the firmament of heaven to shine upon the earth.
18 mondo girit odiechiengʼ gotieno, kendo gipog ler koa kuom mudho. Nyasaye noneno ni mano ber.
And to rule the day and the night, and to divide the light and the darkness. And God saw that it was good.
19 Piny noyuso kendo noru, ma en chiengʼ mar angʼwen.
And the evening and morning were the fourth day.
20 Kendo Nyasaye nowacho niya, “Pi mondo opongʼ gi gik mangima, kendo winy mondo ofu ewi piny e kor polo.”
God also said: Let the waters bring forth the creeping creature having life, and the fowl that may fly over the earth under the firmament of heaven.
21 Kamano Nyasaye nochweyo gik madongo mag nam kod gik mangima duto kod gik malak mag pi, kaka kitgi obet kod winy duto man-gi bwombegi kaka kitgi obet. Nyasaye noneno ni mano ber.
And God created the great whales, and every living and moving creature, which the waters brought forth, according to their kinds, and every winged fowl according to its kind. And God saw that it was good.
22 Nyasaye nogwedhogi kendo owacho niya, “Nywolreuru kendo umedru kuom kwan kendo upongʼ pi mag nembe kendo winy bende omedre e piny.”
And he blessed them, saying: Increase and multiply, and fill the waters of the sea: and let the birds be multiplied upon the earth.
23 Kendo piny noyuso, kendo noru, ma en chiengʼ mar abich.
And the evening and morning were the fifth day.
24 Kendo Nyasaye nowacho niya, “Piny mondo onywol gik mangima kaka kitgi obet: Jamni, kod gik moko duto mamol e lowo, kod le mag bungu, mana kaka kit moro ka moro obet.” Kendo nobet kamano.
And God said: Let the earth bring forth the living creature in its kind, cattle and creeping things, and beasts of the earth, according to their kinds. And it was so done.
25 Nyasaye noloso le mag bungu kaka kitgi obet; jamni kaka kitgi obet kendo gi gik mamol e lowo kaka kitgi obet. Nyasaye noneno ni mano ber.
And God made the beasts of the earth according to their kinds, and cattle, and every thing that creepeth on the earth after its kind. And God saw that it was good.
26 Eka Nyasaye nowacho niya, “We wachwe dhano e kido machal kodwa kendo gibed gi teko ewi rech mae nam kendo gi winy mae kor polo, ewi jamni, ewi piny duto kendo ewi chwech duto mawuotho ewi lowo.”
And he said: Let us make man to our image and likeness: and let him have dominion over the fishes of the sea, and the fowls of the air, and the beasts, and the whole earth, and every creeping creature that moveth upon the earth.
27 Kuom mano Nyasaye nochweyo dhano e kite owuon, e kit Nyasaye nochweye; nochweyogi dichwo gi dhako.
And God created man to his own image: to the image of God he created him: male and female he created them.
28 Nyasaye nogwedhogi mi owachonegi niya, “Nywolreuru kendo kwanu omedre; pongʼuru piny kendo urite. Beduru gi teko ewi rech ma e nam kod winy mae kor polo kendo ewi gik mangima duto mawuotho ewi lowo.”
And God blessed them, saying: Increase and multiply, and fill the earth, and subdue it, and rule over the fishes of the sea, and the fowls of the air, and all living creatures that move upon the earth.
29 Eka Nyasaye nowacho niya, “Amiyou kothe duto manyago cham e wangʼ piny duto kod yiende duto man kod olemo gi kodhi eigi. Ginibed magu kuom chiemo.
And God said: Behold I have given you every herb bearing seed upon the earth, and all trees that have in themselves seed of their own kind, to be your meat:
30 To ne le duto mag piny kod winy duto mafuyo e kor polo kod gik moko duto mawuotho e piny, gimoro amora mangima; amiyo lum duto mondo obed chiembgi.” Kendo nobedo kamano.
And to all beasts of the earth, and to every fowl of the air, and to all that move upon the earth, and wherein there is life, that they may have to feed upon. And it was so done.
31 Nyasaye nongʼiyo gik moko duto mane osechweyo kendo noneno ni gibeyo ahinya. Piny noyuso kendo noru, ma en chiengʼ mar auchiel.
And God saw all the things that he had made, and they were very good. And the evening and morning were the sixth day.
