Deuteronomy 16

1 You are to observe the month of Abib and to celebrate the Passover to the Lord your God, because it was in the month of Abib that the Lord your God led you out of Egypt by night.

“Kowos in oru Kufwen Alukela in malem Abib in akfulatye LEUM GOD lowos, mweyen sie fong ke malem Abib pa El tuh molikowosla liki facl Egypt.

2 The Passover sacrifice from your herd or flock must be offered to the Lord your God in the place where the Lord will choose to live with you.

Som nu ke acn se LEUM GOD El sulela kowos in alu we, ac uniya soko sheep, ku cow ingo tuh in mwe mongo ke Kufwen Alukela in akfulatye LEUM GOD lowos.

3 Don't eat ordinary bread with it. For seven days you are to eat bread made without yeast with it, the bread of hardship, because you had to leave Egypt in such a hurry. This way you'll remember day you left Egypt for the rest of your lives.

Ke kowos kang mongo se inge, nimet kang bread orekla ke mwe pulol. Ke len itkosr kowos fah kang bread ma wangin mwe pulol kac, oana ke kowos tuh oru pacl se kowos sulaklak illa liki Egypt. Kang bread se inge — ac fah pangpang bread in keok — tuh in lusen moul lowos kowos fah esam len se kowos ilme liki Egypt, facl in keok sac.

4 Don't have yeast anywhere in your country for seven days. Don't keep any of the meat that you sacrifice on the evening of the first day until the morning.

Ke lusen len itkosr, wangin mwet in facl suwos uh fah oasr kutena mwe pulol in lohm sel. Ac ikwen kosro soko ma anwuki ke eku in len se meet, fah mongola ke fong sacna.

5 Don't sacrifice the Passover animal in any of the towns that the Lord your God is giving you.

“Kowos in tia oru kisa in Alukela lowos in kutena siti ma LEUM GOD lowos El asot nu suwos.

6 The Passover sacrifice must be offered by you only at the place where the Lord your God will choose to live with you. You are to do this in the evening at sunset-the same time you left Egypt.

Acn se na ma LEUM GOD lowos El ac fah sulela tuh mwet uh in alu nu sel we, pa acn sefanna kowos fah oru kisa in Alukela we. Oru ke ekela, pacl se faht uh tili, mweyen pa inge pulan pacl se ke len se kowos tuh mukuiyak liki acn Egypt.

7 Cook it and eat it in the place the Lord your God will choose. Then in the morning go back to your tents.

Akmolyela ikwa sac ac kang ke acn se na ma LEUM GOD El ac sulela kowos in alu nu sel we. Lotutang tok an kowos folokla nu yen suwos.

8 Eat bread without yeast for six days, and the on the seventh day you are to have a holy meeting to honor the Lord your God. You are not to do any work.

Ke len onkosr toko kowos fah mongo bread ma wangin mwe pulol kac, ac ke len se akitkosr, kowos tukeni in alu nu sin LEUM GOD lowos, ac tia oru kutena orekma.

9 Count off seven weeks from when you start the grain harvest.

“Oakma wik itkosr tukun pacl se kowos mutawauk kosrani wheat,

10 Then celebrate the Festival of Weeks to honor him the Lord your God by giving him a freewill offering, depending on just how much the Lord your God has blessed you.

na oru Kufwen Kosrani in akfulatye LEUM GOD lowos. Use nu yorol mwe kisa ke engan na lun kais sie mwet, fal nu ke lupan ma God El akinsewowoye kowos kac.

11 You will celebrate in the Lord's presence in the place where he will choose to live with you. This includes you, your sons and daughters, your male and female slaves, and the Levites who live in your towns, as well as the foreigners, orphans, and widows among you.

Kowos in arulana engan ye mutun LEUM GOD, wi tulik nutuwos, mwet kulansap lowos, ac mwet Levi, mwetsac, tulik mukaimtal, ac katinmas su muta in siti suwos an. Oru ma inge ke acn se na ma LEUM GOD El sulela kowos in alu nu sel we.

12 Don't forget that you were once slaves in Egypt, and be careful to follow these regulations.

Esamna in akos ma sap inge; nimet mulkunla lah kowos tuh mwet kohs in facl Egypt.

13 Celebrate the Festival of Shelters for seven days once you have finished threshing your grain and pressing your grapes.

“Tukun kowos sisla kulun wheat nukewa lowos, ac itungya grape nukewa nu ke wain, kowos in akfulatye Kufwen Iwen Aktuktuk ke lusen len itkosr.

14 Enjoy your feast—you, your sons and daughters, your male and female slaves, and the Levites who live in your towns, as well as the foreigners, orphans, and widows among you.

Engankin kufwa se inge wi tulik nutuwos, mwet kulansap lowos, ac mwet Levi, mwetsac, tulik mukaimtal, ac katinmas su muta in siti suwos uh.

15 Celebrate this Festival for seven days to honor the Lord your God in the place he will choose, because the Lord your God will bless your whole harvest and everything you do, so you will be really happy.

Akfulatye LEUM GOD lowos ke kowos oru kufwa se inge, ac oru ke len itkosr in acn se ma El sulela kowos in alu nu sel we. Kowos in arulana engan, mweyen LEUM GOD El akinsewowoye kosrani lowos ac orekma lowos.

16 All your men must come before the Lord your God in the place He will choose three times every year: the Festival of Bread without Yeast, the Festival of Weeks, and the Festival of Shelters. No one should come before the Lord without an offering.

“Mukul nukewa in mutunfacl suwos fah tuku in alu nu sin LEUM GOD pacl tolu ke yac se, ke acn in alu se ma solla tari: ke Kufwen Alukela, Kufwen Kosrani, ac Kufwen Iwen Aktuktuk. Kais sie mukul fah use sie mwe sang,

17 Each of you is to bring whatever gift you can, depending on how much the Lord your God has blessed you.

fal nu ke lupan ma LEUM GOD lowos El akinsewowoyal kac.

18 Choose judges and officials for each of your tribes in every town that the Lord your God is giving you. They must judge the people fairly.

“Kowos sulela kutu mwet nununku ac mwet kol in siti nukewa ma LEUM GOD lowos El sot nu suwos. Mwet inge in nununku mwet ke suwohs ac tia wiwimwet.

19 Don't pervert justice or show favoritism. Don't take a bribe, for a bribe blinds the wise and twists the words of the truthful.

Elos in tia sesuwos ku fahkak srisri in nununku lalos uh; ac elos in tia eis molin eyeinse, mweyen molin eyeinse uh ku in aklosrye mutun mwet lalmwetmet ac mwet suwohs, pwanang elos orala nununku tia suwohs.

20 Always do what is right and just, so that you may go on living, occupying the land that the Lord your God is giving you.

Kowos in oru ma fal ac suwohs pacl nukewa, tuh kowos fah ku in oakwuki in facl se su LEUM GOD lowos El sot nu suwos.

21 Don't ever set up a wooden Asherah pole next to the altar you build for the Lord your God,

“Pacl kowos oru sie loang nu sin LEUM GOD lowos, nimet filiya mwe akul sak ke god mutan Asherah in oan sisken loang uh.

22 and don't make for yourselves an idolatrous stone pillar, which the Lord your God hates.

Ac nimet kowos tulokunak kutena sru eot in alu nu kac. LEUM GOD El srunga.
