Tim Jo-Lawi 11

1 Jehova Nyasaye nowacho ni Musa gi Harun niya,

And the LORD spake unto Moses and to Aaron, saying unto them,

2 “Nyis jo-Israel niya, ‘Kuom le duto manie piny, magi ema unyalo chamo:

Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, These [are] the beasts which ye shall eat among all the beasts that [are] on the earth.

3 Unyalo chamo kit le moro amora ma ombongʼ tiendegi opogore ariyo kendo manyamo kambula.

Whatsoever parteth the hoof, and is clovenfooted, [and] cheweth the cud, among the beasts, that shall ye eat.

4 “‘Nitie moko manyamo kambula kende kata moko ma ombongʼ tiendegi kende ema opogore ariyo, mago to kik ucham. Ngamia kata obedo ni onyamo kambula kamano, to nikech ombongʼ tiende ok opogore, chik ok oyieni mondo uchame nikech ogak.

Nevertheless these shall ye not eat of them that chew the cud, or of them that divide the hoof: [as] the camel, because he cheweth the cud, but divideth not the hoof; he [is] unclean unto you.

5 Aidha kata obedo ni onyamo kambula to ombongʼ tiende ok opogore, kik uchame nikech ok oler.

And the coney, because he cheweth the cud, but divideth not the hoof; he [is] unclean unto you.

6 Apwoyo kata obedoni onyamo kambula kamano, to ombongʼ tiende ok opogore, chik ok oyienu mondo uchamgi nikech gin gik makwero.

And the hare, because he cheweth the cud, but divideth not the hoof; he [is] unclean unto you.

7 Kata obedo ni ombongʼ tiend anguro opogore ariyo kamano, to ok onyam kambula; chik ok oyienu mondo uchamgi nikech gin gik makwero.

And the swine, though he divide the hoof, and be clovenfooted, yet he cheweth not the cud; he [is] unclean to you.

8 Kik ucham ring-gi kata kik umul ringregi motho. Gin gik makwero ne un.

Of their flesh shall ye not eat, and their carcase shall ye not touch; they [are] unclean to you.

9 “‘To kuom gik moko duto modakie nam gi aore to unyalo chamo mana mago man kod thuokgi kod kalagakla.

These shall ye eat of all that [are] in the waters: whatsoever hath fins and scales in the waters, in the seas, and in the rivers, them shall ye eat.

10 To gik moko duto manie nam gi aore maonge gi thuokgi kata kalagakla, bed nigimol kata gin achiel kuom gik mangima modak ei pi nyaka ukwer.

And all that have not fins and scales in the seas, and in the rivers, of all that move in the waters, and of any living thing which [is] in the waters, they [shall be] an abomination unto you:

11 Nikech gin gik makwero, kik ucham ring-gi bende kik umul motho kendgi.

They shall be even an abomination unto you; ye shall not eat of their flesh, but ye shall have their carcases in abomination.

12 Gimoro amora modak ei pi to gionge thuokgi kata kalagakla nyaka gibednu gik makwero.

Whatsoever hath no fins nor scales in the waters, that [shall be] an abomination unto you.

13 “‘Winy manyaka ukwer kendo kik ucham e magi: Ongo, achuth gi olith

And these [are they which] ye shall have in abomination among the fowls; they shall not be eaten, they [are] an abomination: the eagle, and the ossifrage, and the ospray,

14 gi otenga kod kit otenga duto,

And the vulture, and the kite after his kind;

15 gi kit agak duto,

Every raven after his kind;

16 tula, nyatawo gi okok kod kit olith duto

And the owl, and the night hawk, and the cuckow, and the hawk after his kind,

17 tula matin, gi osou, gi tula maduongʼ,

And the little owl, and the cormorant, and the great owl,

18 gi tula marachar gi tula modak e thim gi mbusi,

And the swan, and the pelican, and the gier eagle,

19 gi nyamnaha gi ngʼangʼa, tula kod olik tiga.

And the stork, the heron after her kind, and the lapwing, and the bat.

20 “‘Kute duto mafuyo kendo mawuotho gi tiende angʼwen nobednu gik makwero.

All fowls that creep, going upon [all] four, [shall be] an abomination unto you.

21 Kata kamano, nitiere kute moko ma unyalo chamo man-gi tiende angʼwen kod mago ma gichikorego.

Yet these may ye eat of every flying creeping thing that goeth upon [all] four, which have legs above their feet, to leap withal upon the earth;

22 Kuom mano unyalo chamo kit bonyo, osialo gi kit onjiri kaachiel gi kit ongogo duto.

[Even] these of them ye may eat; the locust after his kind, and the bald locust after his kind, and the beetle after his kind, and the grasshopper after his kind.

23 To gik moko duto mafuyo kod mago man-gi tiende angʼwen, nobednu gik makwero.

But all [other] flying creeping things, which have four feet, [shall be] an abomination unto you.

24 “‘Gik makamagi biro miyo ubed mogak, kendo ngʼato angʼata momulo ring chiayo motho kendeno nobed mogak nyaka odhiambo.

And for these ye shall be unclean: whosoever toucheth the carcase of them shall be unclean until the even.

25 Ngʼata angʼata motingʼo ring chiayo mothono nyaka luok lepe, kendo en bende obiro bedo mogak nyaka odhiambo.

And whosoever beareth [ought] of the carcase of them shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the even.

26 “‘Le moro amora ma ombongʼne ok obarore duto kata ma ok nyam kambula nobednu gima kwero, kendo ngʼato angʼata momulo ring-gino nobed mogak.

[The carcases] of every beast which divideth the hoof, and [is] not clovenfooted, nor cheweth the cud, [are] unclean unto you: every one that toucheth them shall be unclean.

27 To kuom le duto mawuotho gi tiende angʼwen, mago mawuotho kanyono piny gi kokegi nobednu mogak, kendo ngʼato angʼata momulo ring-gi nobed mogak nyaka odhiambo.

And whatsoever goeth upon his paws, among all manner of beasts that go on [all] four, those [are] unclean unto you: whoso toucheth their carcase shall be unclean until the even.

28 Ngʼato angʼata motingʼo ring chiayogo motho nyaka luok lepe kendo nobed mogak nyaka odhiambo. Nikech le ma kamago gin le mogak.

And he that beareth the carcase of them shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the even: they [are] unclean unto you.

29 “‘Le mogak manyaka ukwer e magi: oyieyo, oyiech gudhugudhu, ngʼech moro amora maduongʼ kata matindo,

These also [shall be] unclean unto you among the creeping things that creep upon the earth; the weasel, and the mouse, and the tortoise after his kind,

30 gi ogwe gi kalagwena gi olele gi obongo-bongo kod ongʼongruok.

And the ferret, and the chameleon, and the lizard, and the snail, and the mole.

31 Gigi duto nobednu makwero kendo ngʼato angʼata ma omulogi ka gisetho nobed mogak nyaka chop seche mag odhiambo.

These [are] unclean to you among all that creep: whosoever doth touch them, when they be dead, shall be unclean until the even.

32 Kaponi achiel kuom legi otho kendo molwar kuom gimoro amora mwakonyorego pile, to gino koro nobed mogak, bedni en gima olos gi yien, kata en law, kata pien kata ogunia. Gino koro nyaka nyum ei pi kendo nobed mogak nyaka chop seche mag odhiambo, eka bangʼe nobed maler.

And upon whatsoever [any] of them, when they are dead, doth fall, it shall be unclean; whether [it be] any vessel of wood, or raiment, or skin, or sack, whatsoever vessel [it be], wherein [any] work is done, it must be put into water, and it shall be unclean until the even; so it shall be cleansed.

33 Kaachiel kuomgi olwar ei agulu, gik moko duto man ei aguluno nobed mogak, kendo nyaka uto aguluno.

And every earthen vessel, whereinto [any] of them falleth, whatsoever [is] in it shall be unclean; and ye shall break it.

34 Chiemo moro amora minyalo cham moole pi moaye aguluno nobed mogak, kendo gimoro amora mimadho mowuok ei aguluno nobed mogak.

Of all meat which may be eaten, [that] on which [such] water cometh shall be unclean: and all drink that may be drunk in every [such] vessel shall be unclean.

35 Gimoro amora ma gima othono orere nobed mogak; ka orere kuom kendo kata kuom aguch kendo, to nyaka mukgi oko nikech gin gik mogak kendo nyaka kwan-gi kamano.

And every [thing] whereupon [any part] of their carcase falleth shall be unclean; [whether it be] oven, or ranges for pots, they shall be broken down: [for] they [are] unclean, and shall be unclean unto you.

36 Kata kamano soko kata yawo motingʼo pi nosik ka ler, to ngʼato angʼata momulo gimoro amora motho nobed mogak.

Nevertheless a fountain or pit, [wherein there is] plenty of water, shall be clean: but that which toucheth their carcase shall be unclean.

37 Kaponi achiel kuom gik mothogo olwar kuom kodhi mipidho, to kodhigo nosik ka ler,

And if [any part] of their carcase fall upon any sowing seed which is to be sown, it [shall be] clean.

38 to ka kodhigo gin mosebudi e pi, mi gimoro amora motho olwarie, to nobed mogak.

But if [any] water be put upon the seed, and [any part] of their carcase fall thereon, it [shall be] unclean unto you.

39 “‘Ka le moyienu chamo otho, to ngʼato angʼata momule nobed mogak nyaka chop seche mag odhiambo.

And if any beast, of which ye may eat, die; he that toucheth the carcase thereof shall be unclean until the even.

40 Ngʼato angʼata mochamo ringʼono nyaka luok lepe, kendo enobed mogak nyaka chop seche mag odhiambo. Kata ngʼato angʼata motingʼo chiayono bende nyaka luok lepe, bende nosik mogak nyaka chop seche mag odhiambo.

And he that eateth of the carcase of it shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the even: he also that beareth the carcase of it shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the even.

41 “‘Gimoro amora mamol kik ucham nikech gin gik makwero.

And every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth [shall be] an abomination; it shall not be eaten.

42 Kik ucham gimoro amora malak gi bund-igi kata mawuotho gi tiende angʼwen kata man-gi tiende mathoth nikech gin gik makwero.

Whatsoever goeth upon the belly, and whatsoever goeth upon [all] four, or whatsoever hath more feet among all creeping things that creep upon the earth, them ye shall not eat; for they [are] an abomination.

43 Kik gigi mi ubed mogak. Kik gik ma kamago mi ubed mogak kata mochido.

Ye shall not make yourselves abominable with any creeping thing that creepeth, neither shall ye make yourselves unclean with them, that ye should be defiled thereby.

44 An Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu, kuom mano pwodhreuru kendo ubed jomaler, nikech an aler. Kik uchidru gi gimoro amora mamol kata malak e lowo.

For I [am] the LORD your God: ye shall therefore sanctify yourselves, and ye shall be holy; for I [am] holy: neither shall ye defile yourselves with any manner of creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.

45 An e Jehova Nyasaye mane ogolou e piny Misri mondo abed Nyasachu, kuom mano beduru maler nikech an aler.

For I [am] the LORD that bringeth you up out of the land of Egypt, to be your God: ye shall therefore be holy, for I [am] holy.

46 “‘Magi e chike mag le gi mag winy, kod gik mangima mamol ei pi, kod mago malak ewi lowo.

This [is] the law of the beasts, and of the fowl, and of every living creature that moveth in the waters, and of every creature that creepeth upon the earth:

47 Nyaka uket pogruok e kind gik makwero kod gik ma ok kwero, kendo mondo upog gik mangima michamo kod mago ma ok cham.’”

To make a difference between the unclean and the clean, and between the beast that may be eaten and the beast that may not be eaten.
