< Leviticus 18 >

1 And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
Jehova Nyasaye nowacho ne Musa niya:
2 Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, I am Jehovah your God.
“Wuo gi jo-Israel kendo iwachnegi ni, ‘An e Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu.
3 After the doings of the land of Egypt, wherein ye dwelt, shall ye not do; and after the doings of the land of Canaan, whither I bring you, shall ye not do; neither shall ye walk in their customs.
Kik utim timbe ma jo-Misri mane udak e diergi timo kendo kik timbe moko mag jo-Kanaan makoro aterou e diergi yudre kuomu. Bende kik uluw timbe ma gitimo.
4 Mine ordinances shall ye do and my statutes shall ye observe to walk therein: I am Jehovah your God.
Nyaka urit chikena kendo luwuru yorena, nikech an Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu.
5 And ye shall observe my statutes and my judgments, by which the man that doeth them shall live: I am Jehovah.
Rituru yorena kod chikena, nimar ngʼat moluwogi nobed mangima kuomgi. An e Jehova Nyasaye.
6 No one shall approach to any that is his near relation, to uncover his nakedness: I am Jehovah.
“‘Kik ngʼato terre gi dhako moluongo ni watne. An e Jehova Nyasaye.
7 The nakedness of thy father, and the nakedness of thy mother, shalt thou not uncover: she is thy mother: thou shalt not uncover her nakedness.
“‘Kik ikuod wi wuonu kuom terruok gi chiege, nikech en minu.
8 The nakedness of thy father's wife shalt thou not uncover: it is thy father's nakedness.
“‘Kik iterri gi chi wuonu, nikech kitimo kamano to ikelone wuonu wichkuot.
9 The nakedness of thy sister, the daughter of thy father, or daughter of thy mother, born at home, or born abroad — their nakedness shalt thou not uncover.
“‘Kik iterri gi nyaminu mahie, kata nyameru maka wuonu machielo kata maka minu machielo, bedni onywole e dala kae, kata kamoro machielo.
10 The nakedness of thy son's daughter, or of thy daughter's daughter — their nakedness shalt thou not uncover; for theirs is thy nakedness.
“‘Kik iterri gi nyakwari maka wuodi kata maka nyari, nikech kitimo kamano to ikelo wichkuot ni in iwuon.
11 The nakedness of thy father's wife's daughter, begotten of thy father: she is thy sister: thou shalt not uncover her nakedness.

“‘Kik iterri gi nyamin wuonu nikech en wayu.
13 The nakedness of thy mother's sister shalt thou not uncover; for she is thy mother's near relation.
“‘Kik iterri gi nyamin mamau nikech en bende en mamau.
14 The nakedness of thy father's brother shalt thou not uncover; thou shalt not approach his wife: she is thine aunt.
“‘Kik igomb terori gi chi owadgi wuonu nikech en minu, kendo mano kelo wichkuot ne wuonuno.
15 The nakedness of thy daughter-in-law shalt thou not uncover: she is thy son's wife; thou shalt not uncover her nakedness.
“‘Kik iterri gi chi wuodi nikech en maru, ok oyieni mondo itim kamano.
16 The nakedness of thy brother's wife shalt thou not uncover: it is thy brother's nakedness.
“‘Kik iterri gi chi owadu nikech mano nyalo kelo wichkuot ne owaduno.
17 The nakedness of a woman and her daughter shalt thou not uncover; thou shalt not take her son's daughter, nor her daughter's daughter, to uncover her nakedness: they are her near relations: it is wickedness.
“‘Kik iterri gi nyako kaachiel gi min-gi. Kik iterri gi nyakware ma ka wuode kata maka nyare, nikech gin wede dhakono. Mano en tim anjawo.
18 And thou shalt not take a wife to her sister, to vex her, to uncover her nakedness beside her, during her life.
“‘Kik ikend nyamin chiegi mondo obed nyieke ma iriwri kode ka nyamin pod ngima.
19 And thou shalt not approach a woman in the separation of her uncleanness to uncover her nakedness.
“‘Kik iterri gi dhako manie kindene mar neno malo.
20 And thou shalt not lie carnally with thy neighbour's wife, to become unclean with her.
“‘Kik iterri gi chi ngʼama udakgo mokiewo, dipo ka omiyo ibedo mogak.
21 And thou shalt not give of thy seed to let them pass through [the fire] to Molech, neither shalt thou profane the name of thy God: I am Jehovah.
“‘Kik ichiw nyathini moro amora ni nyasaye manono miluongo ni Molek, nimar ok onego iketh nying Nyasaye. An e Jehova Nyasaye.
22 And thou shalt not lie with mankind as one lieth with a woman: it is an abomination.
“‘Kik iterri gi dichwo wadu nikech mano en tim makwero.
23 And thou shalt lie with no beast to become unclean therewith; and a woman shall not stand before a beast to lie down with it: it is confusion.
“‘Kik iterri gi chiayo nikech mano miyo ibedo mogak. Dhako bende kik yie mondo chiayo oterre kode, nikech mano en gima kwero.
24 Make not yourselves unclean in any of these things; for in all these have the nations which I am casting out before you made themselves unclean.
“‘Kik udwanyru kutimo timbe ma kamago nikech timbego ema ogendini mabiro riembo e nyimu ne timo.
25 And the land hath become unclean; and I visit the iniquity thereof upon it, and the land vomiteth out its inhabitants.
Kata mana piny bende nobedo mogak, omiyo ne akumogi nikech richo mag-gi, kendo piny nongʼogo joma nodakie iye.
26 But ye shall observe my statutes and my judgments, and shall not commit any of all these abominations: the home-born, and the stranger that sojourneth among you;
To nyaka urit yorena kod chikena. Onge ngʼato kuomu manotim timbe makwerogo kata obed ja-Israel kata jadak e dieru,
27 (for all these abominations have the men of the land done, who were before you, and the land hath been made unclean);
nikech magi e timbe ma joma nodak e pinyni kapok ubiro notimo kendo negiketho pinyni.
28 that the land vomit you not out, when ye make it unclean, as it vomited out the nation that was before you.
To ka udwanyo pinyno, to ngʼeuru ni onyalo ngʼogou oko mar oganda mane okwongonu dake kane gidwanye.
29 For whoever committeth any of these abominations, ...the souls that commit them shall be cut off from among their people.
“‘Jogo duto matim makwerogo noyud e ngimagi, ginto nyaka golgi oko ei ogandagi.
30 And ye shall observe my charge, that ye commit not [any] of the abominable customs which were committed before you; and ye shall not make yourselves unclean therein: I am Jehovah your God.
Emomiyo luwuru chikena kendo ritreuru ma kik uluw timbe makwero mane joma odak e pinyni otimo kapok ubiro, mondo kik ubed mogak. An e Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu.’”
