28 “Joma moko duto ma gin, jodolo, jo-Lawi, jorit dhorangeye, jower, jotij hekalu, to gi jogo duto mane owalore koa kuom jogo mokiewo kodgi nikech Chik mar Nyasaye, kaachiel gi mondegi kod yawuotgi kod nyigi duto manyalo winjo tiend chike,
And the rest of the people, the priests, the Levites, the doorkeepers, the singers, the Nethinim, and all they that had separated themselves from the peoples of the lands to the law of God, their wives, their sons and their daughters, every one having knowledge [and] having understanding,
29 noriwore gi owetegi ma joka ruoth mi gikwongʼore giduto kendo negikwongʼore ni ginilu Chike Nyasaye, mane ochiwo kokalo kuom Musa jatichne kendo ginirit chike duto gi yore duto kod puonj mag Jehova Nyasaye Ruodhwa.
joined with their brethren, their nobles, and entered into a curse and into an oath, to walk in the law of God, which had been given by Moses the servant of God, and to keep and do all the commandments of Jehovah our Lord, and his ordinances and his statutes;
30 “Wasingore ni ok wanachiw nyiwa mondo okendi gi jogo modak mokiewo kodwa to kata mana mondo yawuotwa okend nyigi.
and that we would not give our daughters to the peoples of the land, nor take their daughters for our sons:
31 “Ka jogo modak machiegni kodwa okelo gigegi mag ohala kata chambgi mondo giusi chiengʼ Sabato, ok wabi ngʼiewo kodgi chiengʼ Sabato kata e odiechiengʼ moro maler. E higa mar abiriyo ka mar abiriyo wabiro weyo tiyo e puodho kendo wabiro weyone ji gopegi duto.
and that if the peoples of the land brought wares or any grain on the sabbath day to sell, we would not take it of them on the sabbath, or on [any] holy day; and that we would leave [the land uncultivated] the seventh year, and the exaction of every debt.
32 “Higa ka higa wabiro kawo tingʼ mar kelo osuru madirom achiel kuom adek mar shekel ne tij od Nyasachwa,
And we made ordinances for us, to charge ourselves yearly with the third part of a shekel for the service of the house of our God,
33 mibiro ngʼiewogo makati miketo e nyim Nyasaye pile, gi misango mar cham mitimo pile, gi misengini miwangʼo pep, kod misengini mamoko mitimo chiengʼ Sabato, kod mago mitimo ka dwe opor kod ndalo mag sewni moyier kendo ni tich misengini mamoko kod misengini mag golo richo jo-Israel kaachiel gi tije duto mag od Nyasachwa.
for the bread to be set in rows, and for the continual oblation, and for the continual burnt-offering, [for that] of the sabbaths [and] of the new moons, for the set feasts and for the holy [things], and for the sin-offerings to make an atonement for Israel, and [for] all the work of the house of our God.
34 “Wan; jodolo, gi jo-Lawi kaachiel gi ji mamoko wasegoyo ombulu mondo wayier chiengʼ ma dala ka dala biro chiwoe yien miwangʼogo misengini ewi kendo mar misango mar Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachwa e kinde moketi higa ka higa, mana kaka ondiki e Chik.
And we cast the lots among the priests, the Levites, and the people, for the wood-offering, to bring [it] into the house of our God, according to our fathers' houses, at times appointed year by year, to burn upon the altar of Jehovah our God, as it is written in the law;
35 “Bende wachiwore mar kelo nyak mokwongo mar chambwa kod olemo moro amora higa ka higa e od Jehova Nyasaye.
and to bring the first-fruits of our land, and the first-fruits of all fruit of all trees, year by year to the house of Jehovah,
36 “Wabiro kelo yawuotwa makayo kod dhowa gi rombwa mokwong nywol ni jodolo matiyo e od Nyasachwa mana kaka ondik e Chik.
and the firstborn of our sons and of our cattle, as it is written in the law; and to bring the firstlings of our herds and of our flocks to the house of our God, to the priests that minister in the house of our God;
37 “Bende wabiro kelo e kar keno mar od Nyasaye gik machalo kaka; chiembwa mokwongo mar lowo, chiwo mar chambwa, olembe mar yiendwa duto kod divai manyien; chiembwa mokwongo mar lowo, chiwo mar chambwa, olembe mag yiendwa duto kod divai manyien gi mo ni jodolo. Kendo wabiro kelo achiel kuom apar mag chambwa ni jo-Lawi, nikech gin ema oyienigi choko achiel kuom apar e mier duto ma watiyoe.
and that we should bring the first-fruits of our coarse meal and our heave-offerings, and the fruit of all manner of trees, new wine and oil, to the priests, into the chambers of the house of our God, and the tithes of our ground to the Levites, that they, the Levites, should take the tithes in all the cities of our tillage.
38 Jadolo moa e anywola Harun nyaka dhi gi jo-Lawi sa ma gikawo achiel kuom apar, to jo-Lawi nyaka kel achiel kuom apar mar achiel kuom aparno e kuonde keno mag od Nyasachwa.
And the priest the son of Aaron shall be with the Levites, when the Levites take tithes; and the Levites shall bring up the tithe of the tithes to the house of our God, into the chambers of the treasure-house.
39 Jo-Israel kaachiel gi jo-Lawi, nyaka kel chiwo margi mar cham, divai manyien kod mo nyaka e kar keno kama gigo mag kama ler mar lemo ikanoe kendo kama jodolo, jorit dhorangeye kod jower odakie. “Ok wanajwangʼ od Nyasachwa.”
For the children of Israel and the children of Levi shall bring the heave-offering of the corn, of the new wine and the oil, into the chambers, where are the vessels of the sanctuary, and the priests that minister, and the doorkeepers and the singers. And we will not forsake the house of our God.
