Deuteronomy 31
1 And Moses went and spoke these words to all Israel;
Eka Musa nodhi mowuoyo ne jo-Israel kowacho niya,
2 and he said unto them, I am a hundred and twenty years old this day, I can no more go out and come in; and Jehovah hath said unto me, Thou shalt not go over this Jordan.
“Koro sani an ja-higni mia achiel gi piero ariyo kendo koro ok anyal dhi nyime gi telonu. Jehova Nyasaye osewachona ni, ‘Ok iningʼad Jordan.’
3 Jehovah thy God, he will go over before thee, he will destroy these nations from before thee, that thou mayest take possession of them: Joshua, he shall go over before thee, as Jehovah hath said.
Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu owuon biro telo e nyimu. Enotiek dhout pinjego duto kendo unukaw pinjegigo duto. Omiyo Joshua notelnu mana kaka Jehova Nyasaye osewacho.
4 And Jehovah will do to them as he did to Sihon and to Og, the kings of the Amorites, and to their land; whom he destroyed.
Jehova Nyasaye notimnegi mana gima ne otimone Sihon kod Og, ruodhi ma jo-Amor kaachiel gi pinjegi.
5 And when Jehovah giveth them up before you, ye shall do to them according to all the commandment which I have commanded you.
Jehova Nyasaye nochiwgi e lwetu to nyaka utimnegi gik moko duto ma asechikou.
6 Be strong and courageous, fear them not, neither be afraid of them; for Jehovah thy God, he it is that goeth with thee; he will not leave thee, nor forsake thee.
Beduru gi chir kendo motegno. Kik uluorgi kendo kik gimi chunyu nyosre, nimar Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu biro dhi kodu; ok enoweu kata jwangʼou.”
7 And Moses called to Joshua, and said to him in the sight of all Israel, Be strong and courageous, for thou must go with this people into the land which Jehovah hath sworn unto their fathers to give them; and thou shalt cause them to inherit it.
Eka Musa noluongo Joshua ma owuoyone e nyim jo-Israel duto niya, “Bed motegno kendo ma jachir, nimar nyaka idhi gi jogi e piny mane Jehova Nyasaye osingore ne kweregi ni nomigi kendo nyaka ipog-gi kaka girkeni margi.
8 And Jehovah, he it is that goeth before thee: he will be with thee; he will not leave thee, nor forsake thee; fear not, neither be dismayed.
Jehova Nyasaye owuon biro dhi nyimu kendo nobed kodu, ok noweu kata jwangʼou. Kik ubed maluor, bende kik chuny nyosre.”
9 And Moses wrote this law, and delivered it to the priests, the sons of Levi, who bore the ark of the covenant of Jehovah, and to all the elders of Israel.
Kuom mano Musa nondiko chikegi mi omiyogi jodolo, ma yawuot Lawi, mane otingʼo Sandug Muma mar singruok Jehova Nyasaye. Jodong Israel bende nomi chikego.
10 And Moses commanded them, saying, At the end of every seven years, at the set time of the year of release, at the feast of tabernacles,
Eka Musa nomiyogi chik niya, “E giko mar higa mar abiriyo ka mar abiriyo, ma en higa mar weyo gope, ma bende en kinde mar Sawo mar kiche,
11 when all Israel cometh to appear before Jehovah thy God in the place which he will choose, thou shalt read this law before all Israel in their ears.
ka jo-Israel duto obiro mochungʼ e nyim Jehova Nyasaye kama obiro yiero, nyaka usomnegi chikegi.
12 Gather the people together, the men, and the women, and the children, and thy stranger that is within thy gates, that they may hear, and that they may learn, and fear Jehovah your God, and take heed to do all the words of this law;
Chokuru ji, chwo, mon kod nyithindo kaachiel gi jopinje mamoko modak e miechu mondo giwinj chikego eka mondo giwinj kendo gipuonjre luoro Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu kendo girit wechene duto maber.
13 and that their children who do not know it may hear it and learn, that they may fear Jehovah your God, as long as ye live in the land, whereunto ye pass over the Jordan to possess it.
Nyithindgi ma ok ongʼeyo chikni nyaka winji mondo opuonjre luoro Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu ndalo ma udakgo e piny ma ubiro kawo ka usengʼado aora Jordan.”
14 And Jehovah said to Moses, Lo, the days are near for thee to die; call Joshua, and present yourselves at the tent of meeting, that I may give him a charge. And Moses and Joshua went and presented themselves at the tent of meeting.
Jehova Nyasaye nowachone Musa niya, “Ndaloni mar tho koro chiegni. Omiyo biuru gi Joshua mondo uchungʼ e dho Hemb Romo kama abiro miye tich.” Eka Musa kod Joshua nobiro mochungʼ e dho Hemb Romo.
15 And Jehovah appeared at the tent in the pillar of cloud; and the pillar of cloud stood over the entrance to the tent.
Eka Jehova Nyasaye nofwenyore ka siro e rumbi, kendo rumbi nochungʼ e dhood Hema.
16 And Jehovah said to Moses, Behold, thou shalt sleep with thy fathers; and this people will rise up, and go a whoring after the strange gods of the land into which they enter, and will forsake me, and break my covenant which I have made with them.
Jehova Nyasaye nowachone Musa niya, “Ka isetho to jogi biro dwanyore gi nyiseche mamoko manie piny ma udonjoe, kendo gibiro jwangʼa ma giwe singruok mane atimo kodgi.
17 And my anger shall be kindled against them in that day, and I will forsake them, and I will hide my face from them, and they shall be devoured, and many evils and troubles shall befall them, and they will say in that day, Have not these evils befallen me because my God is not in my midst?
Odiechiengno anabed gi mirima kodgi mi ajwangʼ-gi, abiro pandonegi wangʼa kendo enotiekgi. Gik mamono kendo maricho notimrenegi kendo odiechiengno ginipenjre ni, ‘Donge masiragi osebiro nikech Nyasachwa ok nikodwa?’
18 And I will entirely hide my face in that day for all the evils that they have wrought, because they turned unto other gods.
Odiechiengno anapand wangʼa nikech timbegi mamono ma gisebedo ka gitimo mar lamo nyiseche mamoko.
19 And now, write ye this song, and teach it to the children of Israel; put it in their mouths, that this song may be a witness for me against the children of Israel.
“Kuom mano koro ndikni wendni kendo ipuonj jo-Israel kaka iwere mondo wendno obednegi janeno e kinda kodgi.
20 For I shall bring them into the land which I swore unto their fathers, which floweth with milk and honey; and they will eat and fill themselves, and wax fat, and will turn unto other gods, and serve them, and despise me, and break my covenant.
Ka asekelogi e piny ma opongʼ gi chak kod mor kich, ma en piny mane asingora kakwongʼora ne kweregi, kendo ka gisemetho ma gibedo gi mor, to ginidogi ir nyiseche mamoko ma gilamgi, kagiweya kendo ketho singruokna.
21 And it shall come to pass, when many evils and troubles have befallen them, that this song shall testify against them as a witness; for it shall not be forgotten out of the mouths of their seed; for I know their imagination which they are forming already this day, before I bring them into the land which I have sworn [unto them].
Ka masiche mangʼeny kod chandruok otimorenegi, to wendni nobed janeno e kinda kodgi, nimar wachni nyikwagi wigi ok nowilgo. Angʼeyo gima giikore mar timo, kata kane pok akelogi e piny mane asingonegi kakwongʼora.”
22 And Moses wrote this song the same day, and taught it to the children of Israel.
Kuom mano Musa nondiko wendno chiengʼno mopuonje jo-Israel.
23 And [Jehovah] commanded Joshua the son of Nun, and said, Be strong and courageous; for thou shalt bring the children of Israel into the land which I have sworn unto them; and I will be with thee.
Jehova Nyasaye ne ochiko Joshua wuod Nun niya, “Bed motegno kendo ma jachir, nimar inikel jo-Israel e piny mane asingoranegi kakwongʼora ni anamigi kendo an awuon nabed kodi.”
24 And it came to pass, when Moses had ended writing the words of this law in a book, until their conclusion,
Kane Musa osetieko ndiko wechegi e kitabu manie chik koa e chakruok nyaka giko,
25 that Moses commanded the Levites, who bore the ark of the covenant of Jehovah, saying,
chikni ne omiyo jo-Lawi mane otingʼo Sandug Muma mar singruok mar Jehova Nyasaye.
26 Take this book of the law, and put it at the side of the ark of the covenant of Jehovah your God, that it may be there for a witness against thee;
Nowachonegi niya, “Kaw Kitabu mar Chikegi mondo ikete but Sandug Muma mar singruok mar Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachi. Kitabuni nodongʼ kaka janeno e kinda kodu.
27 for I know thy rebellion, and thy stiff neck. Lo, while I am yet alive with you this day, ye have been rebellious against Jehovah; and how much more after my death!
Angʼeyo ni un jongʼanyo ma wigi tek. Kaka usebedo ka ungʼanyo ne Jehova Nyasaye kapod angima kendo an kodu, to koro unungʼany marom nade bangʼ kasetho.
28 Gather to me all the elders of your tribes, and your officers, that I may speak these words in their ears, and take heaven and earth to witness against them.
Choknauru jodongo mag ogandau to gi jotendu duto, mondo awuo e wechegi e itgi kendo mondo aluong polo gi piny obedna janeno kuomgi.
29 For I know that after my death ye will utterly corrupt yourselves, and will turn aside from the way which I have commanded you; and mischief will befall you at the end of days; because ye do evil in the sight of Jehovah, to provoke him to anger through the work of your hands.
Nimar angʼeyo ni bangʼ thona an gi adiera ni udhi bedo jo-mibadhi mi unuwe yore mane achikou. E ndalo mabiro masira nomaku nikech unutim richo e nyim Jehova Nyasaye kendo unujimb mirimbe gi gik ma lwetu oseloso.”
30 And Moses spoke in the ears of the whole congregation of Israel the words of this song, until their conclusion.
Kuom mano Musa nosomo weche manie wendni kochake nyaka otieke ka oganda jo-Israel ochokore:
