< Exodus 19 >

1 In the third month of the departure of Israel out of the land of Egypt, on this day they came into the wilderness of Sinai:
E dwe mar adek bangʼ ka jo-Israel nosewuok Misri, negichopo e thim Sinai e odiechiengʼno.
2 For departing out of Raphidim, and coming to the desert of Sinai, they camped in the same place, and there Israel pitched their tents over against the mountain.
Bangʼ kane gisewuok Refidim, negidonjo thim Sinai, kendo Israel nojot e nyim got e thimno.
3 And Moses went up to God: and the Lord called unto him from the mountain, and said: Thus shalt thou say to the house of Jacob, and tell the children of Israel:
Eka Musa noidho got mondo odhi owuo gi Nyasaye kendo Jehova Nyasaye noluonge gi ewi got mowachone kama: “Ma e gima iwachne od Jakobo to gi jo-Israel.
4 You have seen what I have done to the Egyptians, how I have carried you upon the wings of eagles, and have taken you to myself.
‘Un uwegi useneno gima ne atimone piny Misri kendo kaka ne atingʼou mana kaka ongo tingʼo nyithinde mi akelou ira awuon.
5 If therefore you will hear my voice, and keep my covenant, you shall be my peculiar possession above all people: for all the earth is mine.
Koro, ka uwinja chuth mi urito singruokna, to kuom ogendini duto ubiro bedo mwanduna awuon. Kata obedo ni piny duto en mara,
6 And you shall be to me a priestly kingdom, and a holy nation. Those are the words thou shalt speak to the children of Israel.
un to ubiro bedona oganda mar jodolo kendo oganda maler.’ Magi e weche manyaka iwachne jo-Israel.”
7 Moses came, and calling together the elders of the people, he declared all the words which the Lord had commanded.
Kuom mano Musa nodok moluongo jodongo duto mag oganda mi oketo e nyimgi weche duto mane Jehova Nyasaye ochike mondo owachi.
8 And all the people answered together: All that the Lord hath spoken, we will do. And when Moses had related the people’s words to the Lord,
Oganda duto nodwoko kanyakla kawacho niya, “Wabiro timo gik moko duto ma Jehova Nyasaye ochiko.” Kuom mano Musa nodwoko wachgi ne Jehova Nyasaye.
9 The Lord said to him: Lo, now will I come to thee in the darkness of a cloud, that the people may hear me speaking to thee, and may believe thee for ever. And Moses told the words of the people to the Lord.
Jehova Nyasaye nowacho ne Musa niya, “Abiro biro iru e boche polo mondo omi oganda owinj kaka awuoyo kodi kendo mano biro miyo giket genogi kuomi ndalo duto.” Eka Musa nonyiso Jehova Nyasaye gima oganda nowacho.
10 And he said to him: Go to the people, and sanctify them today, and tomorrow, and let them wash their garments.
Kendo Jehova Nyasaye nowacho ne Musa niya, “Dhi ir oganda mondo ipwodhgi kawuono gi kiny. Ketgi giluok lepgi
11 And let them be ready against the third day: for on the third day the Lord will come down in the sight of all the people upon mount Sinai.
mondo gibed moikore e odiechiengʼ mar adek, nimar chiengʼno Jehova Nyasaye biro lor ewi Got Sinai ka ji duto nene.
12 And thou shalt appoint certain limits to the people round about, and thou shalt say to them: Take heed you go not up into the mount, and that ye touch not the borders thereof: every one that toucheth the mount dying he shall die.
Ket tongʼ ne oganda molworo got kendo nyisgi ni, ‘Beduru motangʼ mondo kik ngʼato idh got kata mulo tie got, nimar ngʼato angʼata mochopo e tiend godni to nyaka negi.
13 No hands shall touch him, but he shall be stoned to death, or shall be shot through with arrows: whether it be beast, or man, he shall not live. When the trumpet shall begin to sound, then let them go up into the mount.
Ngʼatno nyaka chiel gi kite, kata chwowe gi asere; to kik ngʼato angʼata ket lwete kuome. Bed ni en dhano kata le, ok noweye mondo obed mangima.’ To ji nyalo idho godno mana ka tungʼ oywak kuom thuolo malach.”
14 And Moses came down from the mount to the people, and sanctified them. And when they had washed their garments,
Bangʼ ka Musa noselor e got modhi ir oganda, nopwodhogi mine gilwoko lepgi.
15 He said to them: Be ready against the third day, and come not near your wives.
Eka nowacho ne oganda niya, “Ikreuru ne odiechiengʼ mar adek kendo kik ngʼato riwre gi chiege.”
16 And now the third day was come, and the morning appeared: and behold thunders began to be heard, and lightning to flash, and a very thick cloud to cover the mount, and the noise of the trumpet sounded exceeding loud, and the people that was in the camp, feared.
Chiengʼ mar adek gokinyi, polo nomil kamor, ka boche polo okwako wi got kendo turumbete noywag matek, ma ji duto mane ni e kambi notetni.
17 And when Moses had brought them forth to meet God from the place of the camp, they stood at the bottom of the mount.
Eka Musa notelo ne oganda kawuok e kambi mondo orom gi Nyasaye, kendo negichungʼ e tiend got.
18 And all mount Sinai was on a smoke: because the Lord was come down upon it in fire, and the smoke arose from it as out of a furnace: and all the mount was terrible.
Iro noimo Got Sinai nikech Jehova Nyasaye nolor kanyo ei mach. Iro ne dhwolore kawuok ewi godno mana ka iro mawuok e kendo, mi got duto noyiengni,
19 And the sound of the trumpet grew by degrees louder and louder, and was drawn out to a greater length: Moses spoke, and God answered him.
kendo turumbete nomedo ywak matek. Eka Musa nowuoyo kendo Nyasaye nodwoke.
20 And the Lord came down upon mount Sinai, in the very top of the mount, and he called Moses unto the top thereof. And when he was gone up thither,
Jehova Nyasaye nolor ewi Got Sinai mi oluongo Musa nyaka ewi godno. Omiyo Musa noidho e got
21 He said unto him: Go down, and charge the people: lest they should have a mind to pass the limits to see the Lord, and a very great multitude of them should perish.
mi Jehova Nyasaye nowachone niya, “Dhiyo kendo isiem ji mondo kik girire ni gidwaro neno Jehova Nyasaye nimar thothgi nyalo tho.
22 The priests also that come to the Lord, let them be sanctified, lest he strike them.
Kata mana jodolo ma osudo ir Jehova Nyasaye nyaka pwodhre ka ok kamano to Jehova Nyasaye nomwomre kuomgi.”
23 And Moses said to the Lord: The people cannot come up to mount Sinai: for thou did charge, and command, saying: Set limits about the mount, and sanctify it.
Musa nowacho ne Jehova Nyasaye niya, “Ji ok nyal biro ewi Got Sinai nimar in iwuon ema ne isiemowa ni mondo waket kiewo molworo got mondo owale obed maler.”
24 And the Lord said to him: Go, get thee down: and thou shalt come up, thou and Aaron with thee: but let not the priests and the people pass the limits, nor come up to the Lord, lest he kill them.
Jehova Nyasaye nodwoke niya, “Lor piny iom Harun ibigo ira. To jodolo gi ji kik rire mondo one Jehova Nyasaye, nono to abiro mwomora kuomgi.”
25 And Moses went down to the people and told them all.
Kuom mano Musa nolor piny ir ji monyisogi gik mane Jehova Nyasaye owachone.
