Joshua 22
1 Then Joshua called the Reubenites, and the Gadites, and the half tribe of Manasseh,
Eka Joshua noluongo jo-Reuben, jo-Gad kod nus mar dhood Manase
2 and said unto them, Ye have kept all that Moses the servant of Jehovah commanded you, and have hearkened to my voice in all that I commanded you.
mowachonegi niya, “Usetimo gigo duto mane Musa jatich Jehova Nyasaye ochiko, kendo bende useluora e gigo duto mane achikou.
3 Ye have not left your brethren these many days unto this day, and ye have kept the charge of the commandment of Jehovah your God.
Kuom kinde mangʼeny nyaka kawuononi, pok ujwangʼo oweteu, to usetimo tich mane Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu omiyou.
4 And now Jehovah your God hath given rest to your brethren, as he said unto them; and now return, and get you unto your tents, unto the land of your possession, which Moses the servant of Jehovah gave you beyond the Jordan.
Ka koro Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu osemiyo oweteu kwe kaka ne osesingo, doguru e miechu e piny mane Musa jatich Jehova Nyasaye nomiyou e bath aora Jordan kocha.
5 Only, take great heed to do the commandment and the law, which Moses the servant of Jehovah commanded you, to love Jehovah your God, and to walk in all his ways, and to keep his commandments, and to cleave unto him, and to serve him with all your heart and with all your soul.
To beduru motangʼ kurito puonj kod chike mane Musa jatich Jehova Nyasaye omiyou kama: heruru Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu, wuothuru e yorene duto, luoruru chikene, padreuru kuome kendo tineuru gi ngimau duto.”
6 And Joshua blessed them, and sent them away; and they went to their tents.
Bangʼe Joshua nogwedhogi mi oorogi, kendo negidok e miechgi.
7 And to half the tribe of Manasseh Moses had given [inheritance] in Bashan, and to the other half thereof had Joshua given among their brethren on this side the Jordan westward. And when Joshua sent them away to their tents, he blessed them also,
To ne nus mar dhood Manase, Musa nomiyogi piny mantiere Bashan, to nus machielo mar dhoodno, Joshua nomiyogi piny mantiere yo podho chiengʼ mar aora Jordan kaachiel gi owetene. Kane Joshua osegologi mondo gidog e miechgi, nogwedhogi kowacho niya,
8 and spoke to them, saying, Return unto your tents with much wealth and with very much cattle, with silver, and with gold, and with copper, and with iron, and with clothing, in very great quantity; divide the spoil of your enemies with your brethren.
“Ero udok e miechu gi mwandu mangʼeny kaka kweth mar jamni mathoth, fedha, dhahabu, mula gi nyinyo, kod lewni mangʼeny kendo neuru ni upogone oweteu gigo mane upeyo kuom wasiku.”
9 And the children of Reuben and the children of Gad and the half tribe of Manasseh returned, and departed from the children of Israel out of Shiloh, which is in the land of Canaan, to go to the country of Gilead, into the land of their possession, of which they had become possessed, according to the word of Jehovah through Moses.
Omiyo jo-Reuben, jo-Gad kod nus mar dhood Manase noweyo jo-Israel Shilo mantiere Kanaan, mondo gidogi Gilead, pinygi giwegi, mane giyudo kaluwore gi chik Jehova Nyasaye kokalo kuom Musa.
10 And they came to the districts of the Jordan that are in the land of Canaan; and the children of Reuben and the children of Gad and the half tribe of Manasseh built there an altar by the Jordan, an altar of grand appearance.
Kane gibiro Geliloth but aora Jordan e piny Kanaan, jo-Reuben, jo-Gad kod nus mar dhood Manase nogero kendo mar misango machiegni gi aora Jordan.
11 And the children of Israel heard say, Behold, the children of Reuben and the children of Gad and the half tribe of Manasseh have built an altar over against the land of Canaan, in the districts of the Jordan, separately from the children of Israel.
To ka jo-Israel nowinjo ni negisegero kendo mar misango e tongʼ Kanaan kama iluongo ni Geliloth but aora Jordan yo kor jo-Israel,
12 And when the children of Israel heard [of it], the whole assembly of the children of Israel gathered together at Shiloh, to go up against them to war.
oganda duto mar Israel nochokore Shilo mondo gidhi giked kodgi.
13 And the children of Israel sent to the children of Reuben, and to the children of Gad, and to the half tribe of Manasseh, into the land of Gilead, Phinehas the son of Eleazar the priest,
Omiyo jo-Israel nooro Finehas wuod Eliazar jadolo, e piny Gilead, ir jo-Reuben, jo-Gad kod nus mar dhood Manase,
14 and with him ten princes, of each father's house a prince, out of all the tribes of Israel; and each of them was head of a father's house, of the thousands of Israel.
mi nodhi gi jotelo apar mag dhout Israel kamoro ka moro ochungʼ ne dhoot ka dhoot.
15 And they came to the children of Reuben, and to the children of Gad, and to the half tribe of Manasseh, to the land of Gilead, and spoke with them, saying,
Kane gidhi Gilead, ir dhood Reuben, Gad kod nus mar dhood Manase, negiwachonegi niya,
16 Thus saith the whole assembly of Jehovah: What wickedness is this which ye have committed against the God of Israel, to turn away this day from following Jehovah, in that ye have built yourselves an altar, rebelling this day against Jehovah?
“Oganda duto mar Jehova Nyasaye wacho kama: Ere gima omiyo uketho winjruok maru gi Nyasach Israel? Ere gima omiyo ungʼanyo ni Jehova Nyasaye mi ugero kendo mar misango ni un uwegi e yor wangʼ teko?
17 Is the iniquity of Peor too little for us? from which we are not cleansed until this day, although there was a plague in the assembly of Jehovah.
Donge richo mane watimo Peor oromo? Nyaka chil kawuono kum mane Jehova Nyasaye omiyowa pok orumo!
18 And ye turn away this day from following Jehovah; and it will be, that since ye rebel this day against Jehovah, to-morrow he will be wroth with the whole assembly of Israel.
Uparo ni kumno ne yot ma pod udhi nyime mana ne ngʼanyo ni Jehova Nyasaye? “‘Ka dipo ni pod ukwedo Jehova Nyasaye kawuono, to kiny iye biro wangʼ gi jo-Israel duto.
19 Notwithstanding, if the land of your possession is unclean, come over into the land of the possession of Jehovah, where Jehovah's tabernacle dwelleth, and take possession amongst us; but rebel not against Jehovah, and rebel not against us, in building for yourselves an altar besides the altar of Jehovah our God.
Ka piny ma ukawoni odwanyore, to biuru e piny Jehova Nyasaye, kama ogurie hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye, kendo mondo udag kodwa e pinyni. To kik ukwed Jehova Nyasaye kata mana wan bende ka ugero kendo mar misango ne un uwegi, makmana kendo mar misango mar Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachwa kende.
20 Did not Achan the son of Zerah commit a trespass in the accursed thing? and wrath fell on all the assembly of Israel, and he perished not alone in his iniquity.
Donge uparo kaka Akan wuod Zera notimo richo e nyim Jehova Nyasaye, momiyo oganda jo-Israel duto okum? Ok en kende ema notho nikech richone.’”
21 And the children of Reuben and the children of Gad and the half tribe of Manasseh answered and said to the heads of the thousands of Israel,
Jo-Reuben, Gad kod nus mar dhood Manase nodwoko jotend anywola mag jo-Israel niya,
22 The God of gods, Jehovah, the God of gods, Jehovah, he knoweth, and Israel he shall know [it]; if it is in rebellion, or if in trespass against Jehovah, — save us not this day!
“Jehova Nyasaye en Nyasaye Maratego! Jehova Nyasaye en Nyasaye Maratego! Ongʼeyo gik moko duto! Israel mondo ongʼe! Ka dipo ni ma notim e yor ngʼanyo, kata bedo maonge gi luor ne Jehova Nyasaye, to kik ingʼwon-nwa kawuono.
23 — that we have built for ourselves an altar to turn from following Jehovah, and if it is to offer up burnt-offering and oblation on it, and if to offer peace-offerings thereon, let Jehovah himself require it [from us];
Ka dipo ni wagero kendowa mar misango owuon mondo waa ir Jehova Nyasaye kendo mondo wachiw misango miwangʼo pep kod chiwo mar cham, kata ni wachiw misango mar lalruok kuome, to mad Jehova Nyasaye kumwa kaka joma osetimo richo.
24 and if we have not done it from fear of this thing, saying, In future your children will speak to our children, saying, What have ye to do with Jehovah the God of Israel?
“Ooyo! Ne watimo kamano nikech chiengʼ moro nyikwawa nyalo wachone nyikwau ni, ‘En angʼo ma wanyalo timo gi Jehova Nyasaye, ma Nyasach Israel?
25 Jehovah hath made the Jordan a border between us and you, ye children of Reuben and children of Gad, ye have no portion in Jehovah! And so shall your children make our children cease from fearing Jehovah.
Jehova Nyasaye oseketo aora Jordan mondo opog kindwa kodu, un joka Reuben kod joka Gad! Uonge kod pok moro kuom Jehova Nyasaye.’ Omiyo nyikwau nyalo miyo nyikwawa weyo luoro Jehova Nyasaye.
26 And we said, Let us now set to work to build an altar, not for burnt-offering, nor for sacrifice,
“Mano emomiyo nwawacho ni, ‘Waikreuru kendo wager kendo mar misango, to ok mar misango miwangʼo pep, kata ni sewni mamoko.’
27 but to be a witness between us and you, and between our generations after us, that we might do service to Jehovah before him with our burnt-offerings, and with our sacrifices, and with our peace-offerings; that your children may not say to our children in future, Ye have no portion in Jehovah.
To kata kamano, ma onego obed ranyisi e kindwa kodu to gi tiengʼ mabiro bangʼwa, ni wabiro lamo Jehova Nyasaye e kare maler mar lemo ka wachiwone misango miwangʼo pep, misengini mamoko kod misango mar lalruok. Bangʼe ndalo mabiro nyikwau ok nowach ne nyikwawa ni, ‘Uonge gi pok kuom Jehova Nyasaye.’
28 And we said, If it shall be that in future they so say to us and to our generations, we will say, Behold the pattern of the altar of Jehovah which our fathers made, not for burnt-offering, nor for sacrifice, but as a witness between us and you.
“To ne wawacho niya, ‘Ka dipo ni giwachonwa ma, kata ne nyikwawa to wabiro dwoko kama: Neuru kendo mar misango mar Jehova Nyasaye, mane kwerewa ogero, mondo obed kaka ranyisi e kindwa kodu, to ok ni chiwo misango miwangʼo pep.’
29 Far be it from us that we should rebel against Jehovah, and turn this day from following Jehovah, in building an altar for burnt-offering, for oblation, and for sacrifice, besides the altar of Jehovah our God that is before his tabernacle.
“Mad wabed mabor gi ngʼanyone Jehova Nyasaye, mi walokre waa kuome kawuono ka wagero kendo mar misango miwangʼo pep, chiwo mar cham kod misengini mamoko moloyo kendo mar misango mar Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachwa mochungʼ e nyim kare maler.”
30 And when Phinehas the priest and the princes of the assembly and the heads of the thousands of Israel that were with him heard the words that the children of Reuben and the children of Gad and the children of Manasseh spoke, it was good in their sight.
Kane Finehas jadolo kod jotend gwengʼ, ma gin jotend anywola mar jo-Israel, nowinjo gima Reuben, Gad kod Manase nowacho, negibedo gi mor.
31 And Phinehas the son of Eleazar the priest said unto the children of Reuben, and to the children of Gad, and to the children of Manasseh, This day we perceive that Jehovah is among us, because ye have not committed this trespass against Jehovah: now have ye delivered the children of Israel out of the hand of Jehovah.
Kendo Finehas wuod Eliazar ma jadolo, nowachone Reuben, Gad kod Manase niya, “Kawuono wangʼeyo ni Jehova Nyasaye nikodwa, nikech ok usetimo gima Jehova Nyasaye okwero. Kuom mano usereso jo-Israel kuom kum mar Jehova Nyasaye.”
32 And Phinehas the son of Eleazar the priest, and the princes, returned from the children of Reuben, and from the children of Gad, out of the land of Gilead, to the land of Canaan, to the children of Israel, and brought them word again.
Bangʼe Finehas wuod Eliazar ma jadolo, kod jotelo noduogo Kanaan koa e romogi gi jo-Reuben kod jo-Gad mane nitiere Gilead kendo ne gidwokone jo-Israel wach.
33 And the thing was good in the sight of the children of Israel, and the children of Israel blessed God, and no more said that they would go up in warfare against them, to destroy the land in which the children of Reuben and the children of Gad dwelt.
Negimor kuom winjo wachni kendo negipako Nyasaye. Ne ok gichako giwuoyo kendo kuom dhi kedo kodgi mondo giketh piny ma dhood Reuben kod Gad odakie.
34 And the children of Reuben and the children of Gad gave a name to the altar; for it is a witness between us that Jehovah is God.
Dhood Reuben kod Gad nomiyo kendo mar misangono nying machalo kama: Ranyisi e Kindwa ni Jehova Nyasaye en Nyasaye.
