Chakruok 20
1 Ibrahim nowuotho moa kanyo modhi e gwenge mag Negev kendo odak e kind Kadesh kod Shur. Nodak Gerar kuom kinde matin,
And Abraham departed thence towards the south country, and dwelt between Kadesh and Shur, and sojourned at Gerar.
2 kendo kanyo ema Ibrahim nowachonegi niya, “Sara en nyaminwa.” Eka Abimelek ruodh Gerar nooro joote moomone Sara kendo nokawe kaka chiege.
And Abraham said of Sarah his wife, She is my sister. And Abimelech the king of Gerar sent and took Sarah.
3 To Nyasaye nofwenyore ne Abimelek e lek gotieno kendo owachone niya, “Dine ber ka itho nikech dhako ma ikawono; en chi ngʼato.”
But God came to Abimelech in a dream by night, and said to him, Behold, thou art [but] a dead man, because of the woman that thou hast taken; for she is a man's wife.
4 To ne oyudo Abimelek pok oriwore kode. Eka nowacho niya, “Jehova Nyasaye bende dineg joma onge ketho?
But Abimelech had not come near her. And he said, Lord, wilt thou also kill a righteous nation?
5 Donge ne onyisa ni ma nyaminwa; kendo donge Sara ema nowachona ni ma owadwa? Asetimo ma giparo malongʼo kod lwedo maler.”
Did he not say to me, She is my sister? and she, even she said, He is my brother. In the integrity of my heart and in the innocency of my hands have I done this.
6 Eka Nyasaye nowachone e lek niya, “Ee angʼeyo ni nitimo ma kod paro malongʼo omiyo aseriti mondo kik iketh e nyima. Mano ema nomiyo ok ayieni mondo iriwri kode.
And God said to him in a dream, I also knew that thou didst this in the integrity of thy heart, and I, too, have withheld thee from sinning against me: therefore have I not suffered thee to touch her.
7 Koro dwokne Ibrahim chiege, nimar en janabi, kendo obiro lamoni mi ok initho. To ka ok idwoke, to bed gadiera ni in gi jogi duto ubiro tho.”
And now, restore the man's wife; for he is a prophet, and will pray for thee, that thou mayest live. And if thou do not restore [her], know that thou shalt certainly die, thou and all that is thine.
8 Kinyne gokinyi mangʼich Abimelek noluongo jotichne duto kendo kane onyisogi gik moko duto mane osetimore, negibedo maluor ahinya.
And Abimelech rose early in the morning, and called all his servants, and spoke all these words in their ears; and the men were greatly afraid.
9 Eka Abimelek noluongo Ibrahim ire mi openje niya, “Angʼo ma isetimonwani? Ere gima rach ma asetimoni ma omiyo isekelo richo maduongʼni kuoma kod pinyruodha? Isetimona gik moko ma ok onego tim ne ngʼato.”
And Abimelech called Abraham and said to him, What hast thou done to us? And in what have I sinned against thee, that thou hast brought on me, and on my kingdom, a great sin? Thou hast done to me deeds that ought not to be done.
10 Kendo Abimelek nopenjo Ibrahim niya, “En angʼo miparo momiyo itimo gini?”
And Abimelech said to Abraham, What hast thou seen that thou hast done this?
11 Ibrahim nodwoke niya, “Ne awacho e chunya ni, ‘Adier luor mar Nyasaye onge ka, kendo gibiro nega nikech chiega.’
And Abraham said, Because I said, Surely the fear of God is not in this place, and they will kill me for my wife's sake.
12 To bende, kuom adier en nyaminwa, ma nyar wuora, to minewa ema opogore; kendo ne akende obedo chiega.
But she is also truly my sister, the daughter of my father, but not the daughter of my mother; and she became my wife.
13 Kendo kane Nyasaye ochika mondo awuog e od wuora mondo awuoth e pinje mamoko, nawachone Sara ni, ‘Mae kaka inyalo nyisa ni ihera: Kamoro amora ma wadhiye wach niya, “An owadu.”’”
And it came to pass when God caused me to wander from my father's house, that I said to her, Let this be thy kindness which thou shalt shew to me: at every place whither we shall come, say of me, He is my brother.
14 Eka Abimelek nokelo rombe gi dhok kod wasumbini mamon kod machwo kendo nomiyogi Ibrahim kendo Abimelek nodwokone Ibrahim Sara chiege.
And Abimelech took sheep and oxen, and bondmen and bondwomen, and gave [them] to Abraham, and restored him Sarah his wife.
15 Kendo Abimelek nowacho niya, “Pinya duto ni e lweti; dag kamoro amora ma ihero.”
And Abimelech said, Behold, my land is before thee: dwell where it is good in thine eyes.
16 Nonyiso Sara bende niya, “Asemiyo owadu shekel mar fedha maromo alufu achiel mondo obed ranyisi ne jou duto ni ionge gi ketho; nikech ok isetimo gimoro amora marach.”
And to Sarah he said, Behold, I have given thy brother a thousand [pieces] of silver; behold, let that be to thee a covering of the eyes, in respect of all that are with thee, and with all; and she was reproved.
17 Eka Ibrahim nolamo Nyasaye, kendo Nyasaye nochango Abimelek, chiege kod jotichne ma nyiri mondo omi ginywol nyithindo kendo,
And Abraham prayed to God, and God healed Abimelech, and his wife and his handmaids, and they bore [children].
18 nimar noyudo ka Jehova Nyasaye osedino ii mon man e od Abimelek nikech Sara chi Ibrahim.
For Jehovah had fast closed up all the wombs of the house of Abimelech because of Sarah Abraham's wife.
