Kwan 14

1 Otienono oganda duto mag gwengʼ notingʼo dwondgi malo mi giywak matek.

And all the congregation lifted up their voice, and cried; and the people wept that night.

2 Jo-Israel duto nongʼur ne Musa kod Harun, kendo chokruok mar oganda duto nowachonegi niya, “Donge dine ber ka watho Misri? Kata mana e thim ka!

And all the children of Israel murmured against Moses and against Aaron; and the whole congregation said unto them: 'Would that we had died in the land of Egypt! or would we had died in this wilderness!

3 Angʼo momiyo Jehova Nyasaye kelowa e pinyni mondo negwa gi ligangla? Mondewa kod nyithindwa ibiro kaw mana kaka gik moyaki. Donge deber ka wadok Misri?”

And wherefore doth the LORD bring us unto this land, to fall by the sword? Our wives and our little ones will be a prey; were it not better for us to return into Egypt?'

4 Kendo negiwacho e kindgi giwegi niya, “Onego wayier jatelo mondo wadog Misri.”

And they said one to another: 'Let us make a captain, and let us return into Egypt.'

5 Eka Musa kod Harun nopodho auma e nyim chokruok mar oganda Israel duto mane ochokore kanyo.

Then Moses and Aaron fell on their faces before all the assembly of the congregation of the children of Israel.

6 Joshua wuod Nun kod Kaleb wuod Jefune, ma gin achiel kuom joma ne odhi nono piny Kanaan, noyiecho lepgi

And Joshua the son of Nun and Caleb the son of Jephunneh, who were of them that spied out the land, rent their clothes.

7 mi owacho ne chokruok mar oganda jo-Israel duto niya, “Piny mane wakalo e iye kendo wanono ber miwuoro.

And they spoke unto all the congregation of the children of Israel, saying: 'The land, which we passed through to spy it out, is an exceeding good land.

8 Ka dipo ni Jehova Nyasaye mor kodwa, to obiro telonwa nyaka e pinyno, piny mopongʼ gi chak kod mor kich, kendo obiro miyowa pinyno.

If the LORD delight in us, then He will bring us into this land, and give it unto us — a land which floweth with milk and honey.

9 Gima utim en ni kik ungʼanyne Jehova Nyasaye. Kik uluor jopinyno, nikech wabiro mwonyogi duto. Jarit mag-gi osea, to wan to Jehova Nyasaye nikodwa kendo kik uluorgi.”

Only rebel not against the LORD, neither fear ye the people of the land; for they are bread for us; their defence is removed from over them, and the LORD is with us; fear them not.'

10 To chokruok mar oganda duto nowuoyo e kindgi giwegi mondo gichielgi gi kite. Eka duongʼ mar Jehova Nyasaye nothinyore ne jo-Israel duto e Hemb Romo.

But all the congregation bade stone them with stones, when the glory of the LORD appeared in the tent of meeting unto all the children of Israel.

11 Jehova Nyasaye nowacho ne Musa niya, “Nyaka karangʼo ma jogi biro jarae? Nyaka karangʼo ma jogi biro tamore yie kuoma, kata bangʼ timo honni mopogore opogore e kindgi?

And the LORD said unto Moses: 'How long will this people despise Me? and how long will they not believe in Me, for all the signs which I have wrought among them?

12 Abiro negogi gi masira mi atiekgi chuth, to un to abiro miyou ubed oganda maduongʼ kendo motegno moloyogi.”

I will smite them with the pestilence, and destroy them, and will make of thee a nation greater and mightier than they.'

13 Musa noywak ne Jehova Nyasaye niya, “Jo-Misri ongʼeyo wachni malongʼo ni in ema nigolo jo-Israel oa kuomgi gi tekoni iwuon.

And Moses said unto the LORD: 'When the Egyptians shall hear — for Thou broughtest up this people in Thy might from among them —

14 Kendo gibiro nyiso jopinyni wachni. To bende gisewinjo ni in, yaye Jehova Nyasaye, oseneni kitelonegi godiechiengʼ gi boche mag polo, to gotieno itelonegi gi pilni mar mach.

they will say to the inhabitants of this land, who have heard that Thou LORD art in the midst of this people; inasmuch as Thou LORD art seen face to face, and Thy cloud standeth over them, and Thou goest before them, in a pillar of cloud by day, and in a pillar of fire by night;

15 Ka inego jogi duto dichiel, to oganda mabiro winjo wach machalo kama kuomi biro wacho niya,

now if Thou shalt kill this people as one man, then the nations which have heard the fame of Thee will speak, saying:

16 ‘Jehova Nyasaye ne ok nyal chopo gi jogi e piny mane osingorenegi kokwongʼore, momiyo ne onegogi e thim.’

Because the LORD was not able to bring this people into the land which He swore unto them, therefore He hath slain them in the wilderness.

17 “Mad koro teko Jehova Nyasaye oyangre malongʼo, mana kaka isewacho:

And now, I pray Thee, let the power of the Lord be great, according as Thou hast spoken, saying:

18 ‘Jehova Nyasaye ok kech piyo, to en gihera mogundho kendo oweyo ne ji richogi kendo ongʼwono ne joma ongʼanyo. To kata kamano, joma oketho ok nyal we ma ok okum; okumo nyithindo kuom richo mag wuonegi nyaka tiengʼ mar adek kata nyaka tiengʼ mar angʼwen.’

The LORD is slow to anger, and plenteous in lovingkindness, forgiving iniquity and transgression, and that will by no means clear the guilty; visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children, upon the third and upon the fourth generation.

19 Kaluwore gihera mari maduongʼ, yie iwene jogi richo mag-gi, mana kaka isebedo ka ingʼwononegi chakre gia Misri nyaka sani.”

Pardon, I pray Thee, the iniquity of this people according unto the greatness of Thy lovingkindness, and according as Thou hast forgiven this people, from Egypt even until now.'

20 Jehova Nyasaye nodwoko niya, “Aseweyonegi richogi mana kaka ne ikwayo.

And the LORD said: 'I have pardoned according to thy word.

21 Kata kamano, akwongʼora gi nyinga awuon kod duongʼ mara mopongʼo piny,

But in very deed, as I live — and all the earth shall be filled with the glory of the LORD —

22 ni onge kata mana ngʼato achiel kuomgi mane oneno duongʼ mara kod ranyisi mag honni mane atimo Misri kendo e thim, to ne ok owinja kendo otema nyadipar; ma nochopi e piny mane asingonegi.

surely all those men that have seen My glory, and My signs, which I wrought in Egypt and in the wilderness, yet have put Me to proof these ten times, and have not hearkened to My voice;

23 Bende onge kata mana ngʼato achiel kuomgi mabiro neno piny mane asingone kweregi ka akwongʼora. Ngʼato angʼata ma osenyisa achaya ok none pinyno.

surely they shall not see the land which I swore unto their fathers, neither shall any of them that despised Me see it.

24 To nikech jatichna Kaleb nigi chuny mopogore kod mag-gi kendo ma luwa gi chunye duto, abiro tere e piny mane odhiyoeno, kendo nyikwaye nokaw pinyno kaka girkeni margi.

But My servant Caleb, because he had another spirit with him, and hath followed Me fully, him will I bring into the land whereinto he went; and his seed shall possess it.

25 To nikech jo-Amalek kod jo-Kanaan odak e kuonde mag holo, dwoguru kiny kendo udhi e thim mantiere e yo mochiko Nam Makwar.”

Now the Amalekite and the Canaanite dwell in the Vale; tomorrow turn ye, and get you into the wilderness by the way to the Red Sea.'

26 Jehova Nyasaye nowacho ne Musa kod Harun niya,

And the LORD spoke unto Moses and unto Aaron, saying:

27 “Nyaka karangʼo ma oganda ma timbegi richogi biro ngʼur koda? Asewinjo ngʼur mar jo-Israel ma jo-mibadhigi.

'How long shall I bear with this evil congregation, that keep murmuring against Me? I have heard the murmurings of the children of Israel, which they keep murmuring against Me.

28 Omiyo nyisgiuru ni Jehova Nyasaye owacho ni, ‘Akwongʼora gi nyinga awuon, ni abiro timonu mana gigo mane awinjo kuwacho:

Say unto them: As I live, saith the LORD, surely as ye have spoken in Mine ears, so will I do to you:

29 Ringreu nolwar mana e thimni; ngʼato angʼata kuomu ma hike piero ariyo ka dhi nyime mane okwan e ndalo kweno kendo mosengʼur koda.

your carcasses shall fall in this wilderness, and all that were numbered of you, according to your whole number, from twenty years old and upward, ye that have murmured against Me;

30 Onge ngʼato angʼata kuomu manodonji e piny mane asingone katingʼo bada malo mondo obed dalau, makmana Kaleb wuod Jefune kod Joshua wuod Nun.

surely ye shall not come into the land, concerning which I lifted up My hand that I would make you dwell therein, save Caleb the son of Jephunneh, and Joshua the son of Nun.

31 To kuom nyithindu mane uwacho ni ibiro kaw kaka gik moyaki, gin to abiro kelogi mondo giyud mor mar piny mane udagi.

But your little ones, that ye said would be a prey, them will I bring in, and they shall know the land which ye have rejected.

32 To un, ringreu nodongʼ e thim.

But as for you, your carcasses shall fall in this wilderness.

33 Nyithindu nobed jokwath e pinyni kuom higni piero angʼwen, ka giyudo thagruok nikech bedou maonge gi ratiro, nyaka ane ni ringre ngʼama ogik odongʼ e thim.

And your children shall be wanderers in the wilderness forty years, and shall bear your strayings, until your carcasses be consumed in the wilderness.

34 Ne ubet ka unono pinyno kuom ndalo piero angʼwen, omiyo unuchul richou kuom higni piero angʼwen, ka higa achiel ikwano kar ndalo achiel, mi unufweny malongʼo gima omiyo akwedou.’

After the number of the days in which ye spied out the land, even forty days, for every day a year, shall ye bear your iniquities, even forty years, and ye shall know My displeasure.

35 An, Jehova Nyasaye, asewacho, kendo abiro timo gigi adieri ne oganda ma timbegi richogi, moseriwore mar kweda. Giko mar ngimagi notimre e thim; kendo kae ema gibiro thoe.”

I the LORD have spoken, surely this will I do unto all this evil congregation, that are gathered together against Me; in this wilderness they shall be consumed, and there they shall die.'

36 Omiyo joma Musa ne oseoro mondo odhi onon pinyno, mi odwogo kendo omiyo oganda duto ma timbegi richogi ongʼur kode kaluwore gi wach marach mane gikelo kuom pinyno;

And the men, whom Moses sent to spy out the land, and who, when they returned, made all the congregation to murmur against him, by bringing up an evil report against the land,

37 jogi mane okelo wach marachni kuom pinyno noneg-gi gi masira e nyim Jehova Nyasaye.

even those men that did bring up an evil report of the land, died by the plague before the LORD.

38 Kuom joma nodhi nono pinyno, Joshua wuod Nun kod Kaleb wuod Jefune kende ema notony.

But Joshua the son of Nun, and Caleb the son of Jephunneh, remained alive of those men that went to spy out the land.

39 Ka Musa nowacho ne jo-Israel duto wachni kendo ne giywak gi lit ahinya.

And Moses told these words unto all the children of Israel; and the people mourned greatly.

40 Kiny gokinyi mangʼich ne giwuok mi gidhi e piny manie got. Negiwacho niya, “Wasetimo richo. Wabiro dhi nyaka kama Jehova Nyasaye nosingo.”

And they rose up early in the morning, and got them up to the top of the mountain, saying: 'Lo, we are here, and will go up unto the place which the LORD hath promised; for we have sinned.'

41 To Musa nowachonegi niya, “Angʼo momiyo utamoru winjo chik Jehova Nyasaye? Mano ok bi timore!

And Moses said: 'Wherefore now do ye transgress the commandment of the LORD, seeing it shall not prosper?

42 Kik udhi kuno, nikech Jehova Nyasaye oseweyou. Wasiku biro lou,

Go not up, for the LORD is not among you; that ye be not smitten down before your enemies.

43 nimar jo-Amalek kod jo-Kanaan noked kodu kuno. Nikech useweyo Jehova Nyasaye, ok enodhi kodu kendo nonegu gi ligangla.”

For there the Amalekite and the Canaanite are before you, and ye shall fall by the sword; forasmuch as ye are turned back from following the LORD, and the LORD will not be with you.'

44 To kata kamano, ne ok gidewo wachno, mi gichako dhi malo e piny got, to Musa kata Sandug Muma mar Jehova Nyasaye ne ok owuok e kambi.

But they presumed to go up to the top of the mountain; nevertheless the ark of the covenant of the LORD, and Moses, departed not out of the camp.

45 Eka jo-Amalek kod jo-Kanaan mane odak e piny got nolor mwalo mi omonjogi kendo neginegogi duto ma gichopo nyaka Horma.

Then the Amalekite and the Canaanite, who dwelt in that hill-country, came down, and smote them and beat them down, even unto Hormah.
