< Numbers 32 >

1 Now the children of Reuben and the children of Gad had a very great multitude of livestock. They saw the land of Jazer, and the land of Gilead. Behold, the place was a place for livestock.
Jo-Reuben gi jo-Gad, mane nigi kweth mag rombe kod dhok, noneno ni piny Jazer kod piny Gilead ne nigi lek maber mar pidho jamni.
2 Then the children of Gad and the children of Reuben came and spoke to Moses, and to Eleazar the priest, and to the princes of the congregation, saying,
Omiyo negibiro ir Musa gi Eliazar jadolo kod jotend oganda mar jo-Israel, mi giwachonegi niya,
3 “Ataroth, Dibon, Jazer, Nimrah, Heshbon, Elealeh, Sebam, Nebo, and Beon,
Piny motingʼo Ataroth, Dibon, Jazer, Nimra, Heshbon, Eleale, Sebam, Nebo kod Beon
4 the land which the LORD struck before the congregation of Israel, is a land for livestock; and your servants have livestock.”
ma Jehova Nyasaye osekawo ka oganda mar jo-Israel neno en piny man-gi lek maber mar pidho jamni kendo ungʼeyo ni wan jotichu wan jopidh jamni.
5 They said, “If we have found favor in your sight, let this land be given to your servants for a possession. Do not bring us over the Jordan.”
Negiwachonegi niya, “Ka uyie kodwa, to miwauru pinyni wasumbiniu obed marwa mondo kik wakadh wadhi loka Jordan.”
6 Moses said to the children of Gad, and to the children of Reuben, “Shall your brothers go to war while you sit here?
Musa nowacho ne jo-Gad kod jo-Reuben niya, “Bende jou nyalo dhi e lweny ka un to udongʼ ka?
7 Why do you discourage the heart of the children of Israel from going over into the land which the LORD has given them?
Angʼo momiyo unego chuny jo-Israel mondo kik dhi e piny ma Jehova Nyasaye osemiyogi?
8 Your fathers did so when I sent them from Kadesh Barnea to see the land.
Ma e gima kwereu notimo kane aorogi kane wan Kadesh Barnea mondo gidhi ginon pinyno.
9 For when they went up to the valley of Eshcol, and saw the land, they discouraged the heart of the children of Israel, that they should not go into the land which the LORD had given them.
Kane gisechopo e Holo mar Eshkol mi giringo pinyno, negimiyo chuny jo-Israel onyosore mar dhi e piny mane Jehova Nyasaye osemiyogi.
10 The LORD’s anger burned in that day, and he swore, saying,
Negitugo mirimb Jehova Nyasaye chiengʼno mi nokwongʼore kama:
11 ‘Surely none of the men who came up out of Egypt, from twenty years old and upward, shall see the land which I swore to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob; because they have not wholly followed me,
‘Nikech ok giseluwa gi chunygi duto, onge kata ngʼato achiel ma ja-higa piero ariyo kadhi nyime mane oa Misri mabiro neno piny mane asingora ka akwongʼora ne Ibrahim, Isaka kod Jakobo;
12 except Caleb the son of Jephunneh the Kenizzite, and Joshua the son of Nun, because they have followed the LORD completely.’
onge ngʼato angʼata kuomgi manone pinyno makmana Kaleb wuod Jefune ma ja-Kenizi kod Joshua wuod Nun, nimar negiluwo bangʼ Jehova Nyasaye gi chunygi duto.’
13 The LORD’s anger burned against Israel, and he made them wander back and forth in the wilderness forty years, until all the generation who had done evil in the LORD’s sight was consumed.
Jehova Nyasaye nokecho gi jo-Israel kendo nomiyo giwuotho alanda e thim kuom higni piero angʼwen, nyaka ogandani duto mane otimo marach e nyim Jehova Nyasaye notho.
14 “Behold, you have risen up in your fathers’ place, an increase of sinful men, to increase the fierce anger of the LORD toward Israel.
“Un koth jorichogi, koro ubiro ira, kuchungʼ kar kwereu kendo umiyo mirimb Jehova Nyasaye medore kuom Israel.
15 For if you turn away from after him, he will yet again leave them in the wilderness; and you will destroy all these people.”
Ka uweyo luwo Jehova Nyasaye, to obiro jwangʼo ogandani duto e thim kendo un ema ubiro miyo jogi rum.”
16 They came near to him, and said, “We will build sheepfolds here for our livestock, and cities for our little ones;
Bangʼ kinde matin negidwogo ir Musa mi giwachone niya, “Dwaher gero dipo ne jambwa kod mier madongo mondo mondwa kod nyithindwa odagie.
17 but we ourselves will be ready armed to go before the children of Israel, until we have brought them to their place. Our little ones shall dwell in the fortified cities because of the inhabitants of the land.
To kata kamano waikore mar manore gi gige lweny kendo dhi gi jo-Israel wetewa e piny mane osingnegi. To mokwongo nyaka wager ne mondwa gi nyithindwa mier madongo mochiel motegno mondo ogengʼ-gi kuom wasigu.
18 We will not return to our houses until the children of Israel have all received their inheritance.
Ok wanaduogi e miechwa nyaka wane ni jo-Israel duto oseyudo pinyno kaka pok margi.
19 For we will not inherit with them on the other side of the Jordan and beyond, because our inheritance has come to us on this side of the Jordan eastward.”
Wan ok wanadwar mondo opognwa piny kodgi loka machielo mar aora Jordan nimar osepognwa lopwa yo wuok chiengʼ mar Jordan lokani.”
20 Moses said to them: “If you will do this thing, if you will arm yourselves to go before the LORD to the war,
Eka Musa nowachonegi niya, “Ka utimo kamano ma umanoru gi gige lweny e nyim Jehova Nyasaye,
21 and every one of your armed men will pass over the Jordan before the LORD until he has driven out his enemies from before him,
kendo ka un duto unudhi ka utingʼo gige lweny loka Jordan e nyim Jehova Nyasaye mi ubed kuno nyaka chop Jehova Nyasaye riemb wasike duto e nyime,
22 and the land is subdued before the LORD; then afterward you shall return, and be clear of obligation to the LORD and to Israel. Then this land shall be your possession before the LORD.
ka uloyo pinyno e nyim Jehova Nyasaye, eka unuduogi kendo unubedi maonge ketho e nyim Jehova Nyasaye gi Israel. Kendo pinyni biro bedo pok maru e nyim Jehova Nyasaye.
23 “But if you will not do so, behold, you have sinned against the LORD; and be sure your sin will find you out.
“To ka ok utimo kamano, to ubiro timo richo e nyim Jehova Nyasaye; kendo bed ka ungʼeyo ni richou nofwenyre e lela.
24 Build cities for your little ones, and folds for your sheep; and do that which has proceeded out of your mouth.”
Geruru mier madongo ne mondu gi nyithindu, kod dipo ne jambu, kendo nyaka utim kaka usesingoru.”
25 The children of Gad and the children of Reuben spoke to Moses, saying, “Your servants will do as my lord commands.
Jo-Gad kod jo-Reuben nowacho ne Musa niya, “Wan jotichni, wabiro timo gima ruodhwa osechikowa.
26 Our little ones, our wives, our flocks, and all our livestock shall be there in the cities of Gilead;
Nyithindwa kod mondewa, rombwa kod dhowa biro dongʼ e miech Gilead ka.
27 but your servants will pass over, every man who is armed for war, before the LORD to battle, as my lord says.”
To wan jotichni, ngʼato ka ngʼata ma jalweny biro ngʼado loka Jordan mondo oked e nyim Jehova Nyasaye mana kaka ruodhwa osechiko.”
28 So Moses commanded concerning them to Eleazar the priest, and to Joshua the son of Nun, and to the heads of the fathers’ households of the tribes of the children of Israel.
Omiyo Musa nomiyogi chik ka oorogi ir Eliazar jadolo, kod Joshua wuod Nun kaachiel gi jotend dhout Israel.
29 Moses said to them, “If the children of Gad and the children of Reuben will pass with you over the Jordan, every man who is armed to battle before the LORD, and the land is subdued before you, then you shall give them the land of Gilead for a possession;
Nowachonegi niya, “Ka jo-Gad kod jo-Reuben noidh kaachiel kodu Jordan e nyim Jehova Nyasaye, ka ngʼato ka ngʼato omanore mar kedo, to bangʼ ka useloyo piny, to unumigi piny Gilead kaka pok margi.
30 but if they will not pass over with you armed, they shall have possessions among you in the land of Canaan.”
To ka ok giidho kaachiel kodu ka gimanore gi gige lweny, to nyaka gikaw pok mag-gi kaachiel kodu Kanaan.”
31 The children of Gad and the children of Reuben answered, saying, “As the LORD has said to your servants, so will we do.
Jo-Gad kod jo-Reuben nodwoko niya, “Jotichni biro timo kaka Jehova Nyasaye osewacho.
32 We will pass over armed before the LORD into the land of Canaan, and the possession of our inheritance shall remain with us beyond the Jordan.”
Wabiro ngʼado ka wadhi loka Kanaan e nyim Jehova Nyasaye ka wamanore gi gige lweny, to pok ma wabiro yudo biro bedo loka koni mar Jordan.”
33 Moses gave to them, even to the children of Gad, and to the children of Reuben, and to the half-tribe of Manasseh the son of Joseph, the kingdom of Sihon king of the Amorites, and the kingdom of Og king of Bashan; the land, according to its cities and borders, even the cities of the surrounding land.
Eka Musa nomiyo jo-Gad, jo-Reuben kod nus mar dhood Manase wuod Josef pinyruodh Sihon ma ruodh jo-Amor kod pinyruodh Og ma ruodh Bashan; pinyno duto kaachiel gi miechgi kod gwenge molworogi.
34 The children of Gad built Dibon, Ataroth, Aroer,
Jo-Gad nogero mier madongo motegno kaka Dibon, Ataroth, Aroer,
35 Atroth-shophan, Jazer, Jogbehah,
Atroth Shofan, Jazer, Jogbeha,
36 Beth Nimrah, and Beth Haran: fortified cities and folds for sheep.
Beth Nimra kod Beth Haran, kendo negigero dipo ne jambgi.
37 The children of Reuben built Heshbon, Elealeh, Kiriathaim,
Joka Reuben nogero Heshbon, Eleale kod Kiriathaim,
38 Nebo, and Baal Meon, (their names being changed), and Sibmah. They gave other names to the cities which they built.
kaachiel gi Nebo kod Baal Meon (nyingegi noduog oloki achien) kod Sibma. Mier madongo mane gigero negimiyo nying mamoko.
39 The children of Machir the son of Manasseh went to Gilead, took it, and dispossessed the Amorites who were therein.
Nyikwa Makir wuod Manase nodhi Gilead, moloyo dalano mi giriembo jo-Amor mane oyudo odak kanyo.
40 Moses gave Gilead to Machir the son of Manasseh; and he lived therein.
Omiyo Musa nochiwo Gilead e lwet jo-Makir, ma nyikwa Manase, kendo negidak kanyo.
41 Jair the son of Manasseh went and took its villages, and called them Havvoth Jair.
Jair ma nyakwar Manase nodhi mokawo mier madongo mane ni kanyo, kendo nochako kanyo ni Havoth Jair.
42 Nobah went and took Kenath and its villages, and called it Nobah, after his own name.
Noba nomonjo Kenath kod mier molwore kendo nochake nyinge owuon miluongo ni Noba.
