Deuteronomy 2
1 “And setting out from there, we arrived at the wilderness which leads to the Red Sea, just as the Lord had spoken to me. And we encompassed Mount Seir for a long time.
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 encompassed this mountain for long enough. Go forth, toward the north.
“Usedigni bangʼ kinde mangʼeny kulwororu e pinyni, omiyo wuothuru kuchomo yor nyandwat.
4 And instruct the people, saying: You shall cross through the borders of your brothers, the sons of Esau, who live at Seir, and they will fear you.
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 Therefore, take care diligently, lest you be moved against them. For I will not give to you from their land even as much as the step that one foot can tread upon, because I have given Mount Seir to Esau as a possession.
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 shall buy food from them for money, and you shall eat. You shall draw water for money, and you shall drink.
Ubiro chulogi fedha kuom chiemo ma uchamo kod pi ma umodho.’”
7 The Lord your God has blessed you in every work of your hands. The Lord your God, dwelling with you, knows your journey, how you crossed through this great wilderness over forty years, and how you have been lacking in 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 And when we had passed through our brothers, the sons of Esau, who were living at Seir by the way of the plain from Elath and from Eziongeber, we arrived at the way which leads to the desert 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: ‘You should not fight against the Moabites, nor should you go to battle against them. For I will not give to you anything from their land, because I have given Ar to the sons of Lot as a possession.’
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 The Emim were the first of its inhabitants, a people great and strong, and of such great height, like the race of the Anakim.
(Jo-Emi osebedo ka odak kanyo, ma gin joma rateke, mangʼeny kendo ma roboche mana ka jo-Anak.
11 They were considered to be like giants, and they were like the sons of the Anakim. And, indeed, the Moabites call them: the Emim.
Jo-Emi kod jo-Anak ji ne luongogiga ni jo-Refai, to jo-Moab to ne luongogi ni jo-Emi.
12 The Horites also formerly lived at Seir. When these had been driven out and destroyed, the sons of Esau lived there, just as Israel did in the land of his possession, which the Lord gave to him.
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 Then, rising up so as to cross over the torrent Zered, we arrived at the place.
Kendo Jehova Nyasaye nowacho niya, “Koro chungi mondo ingʼad Holo mar Zered.” Omiyo ne wangʼado holono.
14 Then, from the time that we advanced from Kadesh-barnea until we crossed over the torrent Zered, there were thirty-eight years, until the entire generation of the men who were fit for war had been consumed out of the camp, just as the Lord had sworn.
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 his hand was against them, so that they would pass away from the midst of the camp.
Lwet Jehova Nyasaye ne mon kodgi nyaka ne otiekogi duto e kambi.
16 Then, after all the fighting men had fallen,
Kane joma odongʼ ma jolweny osetho,
17 the Lord spoke to me, saying:
Jehova Nyasaye ne owachona niya,
18 ‘Today, you shall cross the borders of Moab, at the city named Ar.
“Kawuononi ubiro kalo e gwenge mag Moab manie piny Ar.
19 And when you have arrived in the vicinity of the sons of Ammon, be careful that you do not fight against them, nor should you be moved to battle. For I will not give to you from the land of the sons of Ammon, because I have given it to the sons of Lot as a possession.’
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 It was reputed to be a land of giants. And giants lived there in times past, those whom the Ammonites call the Zamzummim.
(Pinyno bende ne okwan kaka piny jo-Refai mane osebedo kodak kuno, to jo-Amon to ne luongogi ni jo-Zamzumi.
21 They are a people, great and numerous, and of lofty stature, like the Anakim, whom the Lord wiped away before their face. And he caused them to live there in place of them,
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 just as he had done for the sons of Esau, who live at Seir, wiping out the Horites and delivering their land to them, which they possess even to the present time.
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 Likewise the Hevites, who were living in small villages as far as Gaza, were expelled by the Cappadocians, who went forth from Cappadocia, and they wiped them out and lived in their place.
To jo-Kaftor mane oa Kaftor noriembo jo-Avi mabor nyaka e gwenge mag Gaza, mi koro gidak kanyo.)
24 ‘Rise up and cross the torrent Arnon! Behold, I have delivered Sihon, the king of Heshbon, the Amorite, into your hand, and so, begin to possess his land and to engage in battle against 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 Today I will begin to send the terror and dread of you among the peoples who are living under all of heaven, so that, when they hear your name, they may be afraid, and may tremble in the manner of a woman giving birth, and may be gripped by anguish.’
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 Therefore, I sent messengers from the wilderness of Kedemoth to Sihon, the king of Heshbon, with peaceful words, saying:
Koa e thim mar Kedemoth, ne aoro joote ne Sihon ma ruodh Heshbon kakwaye mondo kwe obedie kawachone niya,
27 ‘We will cross through your land. We will advance by the public way. We will not turn aside, neither to the right, nor to the left.
“Yienwauru wakal e pinyu nikech wabiro luwo yo tir kendo ok wanabar e bat korachwich kata koracham.
28 Sell us food for a price, so that we may eat. Provide us with water for money, and so we will drink. We only ask that you allow us to pass through,
Yie iusnwa chiemo mwachamo kod pi mwamodho nikech nengogi romre gi fedha, kendo iwewa aweya wakadhi kwawuotho gi tiendwa,
29 just as the sons of Esau have done, who live at Seir, and the Moabites, who abide in Ar, until we arrive at the Jordan, and we cross to the land which the Lord our God will give to 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 And Sihon, the king of Heshbon, was not willing to grant passage to us. For the Lord your God had hardened his spirit, and had fastened his heart, so that he would be delivered into your hands, just as you now see.
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: ‘Behold, I have begun to deliver Sihon and his land to you. Begin to possess it.’
Jehova Nyasaye nowachona niya, “Neuru, koro achiwo Sihon kod pinye e lwetu, koro monjeuru mondo ukaw pinyeno.”
32 And Sihon went out to meet us with all his people, to battle at Jahaz.
Kane Sihon kod jolwenje duto nobiro mondo ochak kodwa lweny e piny Jahaz,
33 And the Lord our God delivered him to us. And we struck him down, with his sons and all his people.
Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachwa nochiwe e lwetwa kendo ne watieke gi nyithinde kod jolwenje duto.
34 And we seized all his cities at that time, putting to death their inhabitants: men as well as women and children. We left nothing of them,
E kindeno ne wakawo mieche duto, mi wanego, chwo, mon kod nyithindo duto, kendo onge ngʼama ne waweyo kangima.
35 except the cattle, which went to the share of those who plundered them. And we seized the spoils of the cities,
To jamni kod gik moyaki mane oa e miechgi mane wakawo ne wadhi godo.
36 from Aroer, which is above the bank of the torrent Arnon, a town which is situated in a valley, all the way to Gilead. There was not a village or city which escaped from our hands. The Lord our God delivered everything to us,
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 except the land of the sons of Ammon, which we did not approach, and all that is adjacent to the torrent Jabbok, and the cities in the mountains, and all the places which the Lord our God prohibited to us.”
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.
