Deuteronomy 2
1 Then we went back, journeying into the waste land by the way to the Red Sea, as the Lord had said to me: and we were a long time going round Mount Seir.
Eka ne wachako wuoth kwangʼado thim kwachomo Nam Makwar mana kaka Jehova Nyasaye nochika. Kuom kinde mangʼeny ne wadigni e piny gode mag Seir.
2 And the Lord said to me,
Eka Jehova Nyasaye ne owachona niya,
3 You have been journeying round this mountain long enough: now go to the north;
“Usedigni bangʼ kinde mangʼeny kulwororu e pinyni, omiyo wuothuru kuchomo yor nyandwat.
4 And give the people orders, saying, You are about to go through the land of your brothers, the children of Esau, who are living in Seir; and they will have fear of you; so take care what you do:
Nyis ji wechegi kiwachonegi ni, ‘Uchiegni kalo e piny joweteu ma nyikwa Esau modak Seir. Gibiro bedo gi kibaji nikech un, to beduru motangʼ.
5 Make no attack on them, for I will not give you any of their land, not even space enough for a man's foot: because I have given Mount Seir to Esau for his heritage.
Kik udwar kodgi lweny nimar ok anamiu pinygi kata mana kama uketo e tiendu kende. Asemiyo Esau pinje mag gode man Seir kaka girkeni mare.
6 You may get food for your needs from them for a price, and water for drinking.
Ubiro chulogi fedha kuom chiemo ma uchamo kod pi ma umodho.’”
7 For the blessing of the Lord your God has been on you in all the work of your hands: he has knowledge of your wanderings through this great waste: these forty years the Lord your God has been with you, and you have been short of nothing.
Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu osegwedho tich lwetu. Oseritou ka uwuotho e thim malichni kendo kuom higni piero angʼwen-gi duto Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu osebedo kodu mi ok uchando gimoro.
8 So we went on past our brothers, the children of Esau, living in Seir, by the road through the Arabah, from Elath and Ezion-geber. And turning, we went by the road through the waste land of Moab.
Eka ne wakalo Seir kama jowetewa ma nyikwa Esau nodakie. Bangʼe ne waa Araba kwachomo Elath kod Ezion Geber mi wawuotho kwachomo thim Moab.
9 And the Lord said to me, Make no attack on Moab and do not go to war with them, for I will not give you any of his land: because I have given Ar to the children of Lot for their heritage.
Eka Jehova Nyasaye ne owachona niya, “Kik umonj jo-Moab kata kwinyogi mondo gitug lweny kodu, nimar ok anamiu dir pinygi moro amora. Kanyo asemiyo joka Ar ma nyikwa Lut kaka girkeni margi.”
10 (In the past the Emim were living there; a great people, equal in numbers to the Anakim and as tall;
(Jo-Emi osebedo ka odak kanyo, ma gin joma rateke, mangʼeny kendo ma roboche mana ka jo-Anak.
11 They are numbered among the Rephaim, like the Anakim; but are named Emim by the Moabites.
Jo-Emi kod jo-Anak ji ne luongogiga ni jo-Refai, to jo-Moab to ne luongogi ni jo-Emi.
12 And the Horites in earlier times were living in Seir, but the children of Esau took their place; they sent destruction on them and took their land for themselves, as Israel did to the land of his heritage which the Lord gave them.)
Chon jo-Hori nodak e piny Seir, to nyikwa Esau noriembogi oko. Negitieko jo-Hori mane ni kanyo mi gidak kuondegi mana kaka jo-Israel notimo e piny mane Jehova Nyasaye omiyogi kaka girkeni.)
13 Get up now, and go over the stream Zered. So we went over the stream Zered.
Kendo Jehova Nyasaye nowacho niya, “Koro chungi mondo ingʼad Holo mar Zered.” Omiyo ne wangʼado holono.
14 Thirty-eight years had gone by from the time when we came away from Kadesh-barnea till we went over the stream Zered; by that time all the generation of the men of war among us were dead, as the Lord had said.
E kinde mane wawuok Kadesh Barnea nyaka wangʼado Holo mar Zered nokawowa higni piero adek gaboro. E kindeno tiengʼ mar jolweny duto notho e kambi, mana kaka Jehova Nyasaye ne osesingorenegi.
15 For the hand of the Lord was against them, working their destruction, till all were dead.
Lwet Jehova Nyasaye ne mon kodgi nyaka ne otiekogi duto e kambi.
16 So when death had overtaken all the men of war among the people,
Kane joma odongʼ ma jolweny osetho,
17 The word of the Lord came to me, saying,
Jehova Nyasaye ne owachona niya,
18 You are about to go by Ar, the limit of the country of Moab;
“Kawuononi ubiro kalo e gwenge mag Moab manie piny Ar.
19 And when you come near the land of the children of Ammon, give them no cause of trouble and do not make war on them, for I will not give you any of the land of the children of Ammon for your heritage: because I have given it to the children of Lot.
Ka ubiro ir jo-Amon, to kik uchandgi kata dwaro tugo kodgi lweny, nimar ok anamiu gimoro amora e piny jo-Amon. Asechiwe kaka girkeni ne nyikwa Lut.”
20 (That land is said to have been a land of the Rephaim, for Rephaim had been living there in earlier times, but they were named Zamzummim by the Ammonites;
(Pinyno bende ne okwan kaka piny jo-Refai mane osebedo kodak kuno, to jo-Amon to ne luongogi ni jo-Zamzumi.
21 They were a great people, tall as the Anakim, and equal to them in number; but the Lord sent destruction on them and the children of Ammon took their place, living in their land;
Gin oganda marateke, mangʼeny kendo ma roboche mana ka jo-Anak. Jehova Nyasaye ne otiekogi e nyim jo-Amon, mane oriembogi mi gidak kuondegigo.
22 As he did for the children of Esau living in Seir, when he sent destruction on the Horites before them, and they took their land where they are living to this day:
Jehova Nyasaye ne osetimo mano ne nyikwa Esau, mane odak Seir, e kinde mane otieko jo-Hori ka gineno. Negiriembogi oko kendo gidak kanyo nyaka chil kawuono.
23 And the Avvim, living in the small towns as far as Gaza, came to destruction by the hands of the Caphtorim who came out from Caphtor and took their land.)
To jo-Kaftor mane oa Kaftor noriembo jo-Avi mabor nyaka e gwenge mag Gaza, mi koro gidak kanyo.)
24 Get up now, and go on your journey, crossing over the valley of the Arnon: see, I have given into your hands Sihon, the Amorite, king of Heshbon, and all his land: go forward to make it yours, and make war on him,
“Koro ikreuru kendo ukadh holo mar Arnon. Neuru, asechiwo e lwetu Sihon ja-Amor ma ruodh Heshbon kod pinye. Chakuru kedo kodgi mondo ukawe.
25 From now on I will put the fear of you in all peoples under heaven, who, hearing of you, will be shaking with fear and grief of heart because of you.
Kochakore odiechiengni abiro kelo luoro kod kibaji ne ogendini duto modak e piny. E kinde ma giniwinjie humbu, gibiro kirni kendo kihondko biro makogi.”
26 Then from the waste land of Kedemoth I sent representatives to Sihon, king of Heshbon, with words of peace, saying,
Koa e thim mar Kedemoth, ne aoro joote ne Sihon ma ruodh Heshbon kakwaye mondo kwe obedie kawachone niya,
27 Let me go through your land: I will keep to the highway, not turning to the right or to the left;
“Yienwauru wakal e pinyu nikech wabiro luwo yo tir kendo ok wanabar e bat korachwich kata koracham.
28 Let me have food, at a price, for my needs, and water for drinking: only let me go through on foot;
Yie iusnwa chiemo mwachamo kod pi mwamodho nikech nengogi romre gi fedha, kendo iwewa aweya wakadhi kwawuotho gi tiendwa,
29 As the children of Esau did for me in Seir and the Moabites in Ar; till I have gone over Jordan into the land which the Lord our God is giving us.
mana kaka nyikwa Esau mane odak Seir kod jo-Moab modak Ar ne jotimonwa, negiweyo wangʼado Jordan miwadonjo e piny ma Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachwa miyowa.”
30 But Sihon, king of Heshbon, would not let us go through; for the Lord your God made his spirit hard and his heart strong, so that he might give him up into your hands as at this day.
To Sihon ruodh Heshbon ne otamowa kadho e pinygi nimar Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachwa nosemiye wich teko, kendo chunye odoko matek mondo ochiwe e lwetu mana kaka osetimo.
31 And the Lord said to me, See, from now on I have given Sihon and his land into your hands: go forward now to take his land and make it yours.
Jehova Nyasaye nowachona niya, “Neuru, koro achiwo Sihon kod pinye e lwetu, koro monjeuru mondo ukaw pinyeno.”
32 Then Sihon came out against us with all his people, to make an attack on us at Jahaz.
Kane Sihon kod jolwenje duto nobiro mondo ochak kodwa lweny e piny Jahaz,
33 And the Lord our God gave him into our hands; and we overcame him and his sons and all his people.
Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachwa nochiwe e lwetwa kendo ne watieke gi nyithinde kod jolwenje duto.
34 At that time we took all his towns, and gave them over to complete destruction, together with men, women, and children; we had no mercy on any:
E kindeno ne wakawo mieche duto, mi wanego, chwo, mon kod nyithindo duto, kendo onge ngʼama ne waweyo kangima.
35 Only the cattle we took for ourselves, with the goods from the towns we had taken.
To jamni kod gik moyaki mane oa e miechgi mane wakawo ne wadhi godo.
36 From Aroer on the edge of the valley of the Arnon and from the town in the valley as far as Gilead, no town was strong enough to keep us out; the Lord our God gave them all into our hands:
Onge dala mane nyalo sirowa e lweny chakre Aroer, e dho holo mar Arnon kod dala manie holo hie nyaka chop Gilead kendo onge kata mana dala achiel mane ok wanyal kawo. Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachwa nochiwogi duto e lwetwa.
37 But you did not go near the land of the children of Ammon, that is, all the side of the river Jabbok or the towns of the hill-country, wherever the Lord our God had said we were not to go.
To kaluwore gi chik Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachwa, ne ok ukawo piny jo-Amon moro amora kata mana piny mokiewo gi Jabok kata mago molworo dalane manie gode.
