10 Jabez called on the God of Israel, saying, “Oh that you would bless me indeed, and enlarge my border! May your hand be with me, and may you keep me from evil, that I may not cause pain!” God granted him that which he requested.
Jabez noywagorene Nyasach Israel, “Yaye, yie igwedha mondo pinyruodha omedre! Mad lweti obed koda kendo orita mondo kik gima rach ohinya kendo abedi maonge rem.” To Nyasaye notimone mana kaka ne okwayono.

39 They went to the entrance of Gedor, even to the east side of the valley, to seek pasture for their flocks.

40 They found rich, good pasture, and the land was wide, and quiet, and peaceful, for those who lived there before were descended from Ham.
Neginwangʼo kuonde kwath mabeyo, piny ne lach kendo kwe ne nitie. Jo-Ham moko nodak kae mokwongo.
41 These written by name came in the days of Hezekiah king of Judah, and struck their tents and the Meunim who were found there; and they destroyed them utterly to this day, and lived in their place, because there was pasture there for their flocks.
Chwo ma nying-gi ondikgo nobiro e ndalo Hezekia ruodh Juda. Negimonjo jo-Ham kuma negidakie kod jo-Meun mane nitie kanyo ma gitiekogi duto mana kaka nyisore ratiro nyaka sani. Negidak ka nikech ne nitiere kar kwath ne jambgi.
