< Deuteronomy 2 >

1 Then we turned, and took our journey into the wilderness by the way to the Red Sea, as the LORD spoke unto me; and we compassed mount Seir many days.
Eka ne wachako wuoth kwangʼado thim kwachomo Nam Makwar mana kaka Jehova Nyasaye nochika. Kuom kinde mangʼeny ne wadigni e piny gode mag Seir.
2 And the LORD spoke unto me, saying:
Eka Jehova Nyasaye ne owachona niya,
3 'Ye have compassed this mountain long enough; turn you northward.
“Usedigni bangʼ kinde mangʼeny kulwororu e pinyni, omiyo wuothuru kuchomo yor nyandwat.
4 And command thou the people, saying: Ye are to pass through the border of your brethren the children of Esau, that dwell in Seir; and they will be afraid of you; take ye good heed unto yourselves therefore;
Nyis ji wechegi kiwachonegi ni, ‘Uchiegni kalo e piny joweteu ma nyikwa Esau modak Seir. Gibiro bedo gi kibaji nikech un, to beduru motangʼ.
5 contend not with them; for I will not give you of their land, no, not so much as for the sole of the foot to tread on; because I have given mount Seir unto Esau for a possession.
Kik udwar kodgi lweny nimar ok anamiu pinygi kata mana kama uketo e tiendu kende. Asemiyo Esau pinje mag gode man Seir kaka girkeni mare.
6 Ye shall purchase food of them for money, that ye may eat; and ye shall also buy water of them for money, that ye may drink.
Ubiro chulogi fedha kuom chiemo ma uchamo kod pi ma umodho.’”
7 For the LORD thy God hath blessed thee in all the work of thy hand; He hath known thy walking through this great wilderness; these forty years the LORD thy God hath been with thee; thou hast lacked nothing.'
Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu osegwedho tich lwetu. Oseritou ka uwuotho e thim malichni kendo kuom higni piero angʼwen-gi duto Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu osebedo kodu mi ok uchando gimoro.
8 So we passed by from our brethren the children of Esau, that dwell in Seir, from the way of the Arabah, from Elath and from Ezion-geber. And we turned and passed by the way of the wilderness of Moab.
Eka ne wakalo Seir kama jowetewa ma nyikwa Esau nodakie. Bangʼe ne waa Araba kwachomo Elath kod Ezion Geber mi wawuotho kwachomo thim Moab.
9 And the LORD said unto me: 'Be not at enmity with Moab, neither contend with them in battle; for I will not give thee of his land for a possession; because I have given Ar unto the children of Lot for a possession. —
Eka Jehova Nyasaye ne owachona niya, “Kik umonj jo-Moab kata kwinyogi mondo gitug lweny kodu, nimar ok anamiu dir pinygi moro amora. Kanyo asemiyo joka Ar ma nyikwa Lut kaka girkeni margi.”
10 The Emim dwelt therein aforetime, a people great, and many, and tall, as the Anakim;
(Jo-Emi osebedo ka odak kanyo, ma gin joma rateke, mangʼeny kendo ma roboche mana ka jo-Anak.
11 these also are accounted Rephaim, as the Anakim; but the Moabites call them Emim.
Jo-Emi kod jo-Anak ji ne luongogiga ni jo-Refai, to jo-Moab to ne luongogi ni jo-Emi.
12 And in Seir dwelt the Horites aforetime, but the children of Esau succeeded them; and they destroyed them from before them, and dwelt in their stead; as Israel did unto the land of his possession, which the LORD gave unto them. —
Chon jo-Hori nodak e piny Seir, to nyikwa Esau noriembogi oko. Negitieko jo-Hori mane ni kanyo mi gidak kuondegi mana kaka jo-Israel notimo e piny mane Jehova Nyasaye omiyogi kaka girkeni.)
13 Now rise up, and get you over the brook Zered.' And we went over the brook Zered.
Kendo Jehova Nyasaye nowacho niya, “Koro chungi mondo ingʼad Holo mar Zered.” Omiyo ne wangʼado holono.
14 And the days in which we came from Kadesh-barnea, until we were come over the brook Zered, were thirty and eight years; until all the generation, even the men of war, were consumed from the midst of the camp, as the LORD swore unto them.
E kinde mane wawuok Kadesh Barnea nyaka wangʼado Holo mar Zered nokawowa higni piero adek gaboro. E kindeno tiengʼ mar jolweny duto notho e kambi, mana kaka Jehova Nyasaye ne osesingorenegi.
15 Moreover the hand of the LORD was against them, to discomfit them from the midst of the camp, until they were consumed.
Lwet Jehova Nyasaye ne mon kodgi nyaka ne otiekogi duto e kambi.
16 So it came to pass, when all the men of war were consumed and dead from among the people,
Kane joma odongʼ ma jolweny osetho,
17 that the LORD spoke unto me saying:
Jehova Nyasaye ne owachona niya,
18 'Thou art this day to pass over the border of Moab, even Ar;
“Kawuononi ubiro kalo e gwenge mag Moab manie piny Ar.
19 and when thou comest nigh over against the children of Ammon, harass them not, nor contend with them; for I will not give thee of the land of the children of Ammon for a possession; because I have given it unto the children of Lot for a possession. —
Ka ubiro ir jo-Amon, to kik uchandgi kata dwaro tugo kodgi lweny, nimar ok anamiu gimoro amora e piny jo-Amon. Asechiwe kaka girkeni ne nyikwa Lut.”
20 That also is accounted a land of Rephaim: Rephaim dwelt therein aforetime; but the Ammonites call them Zamzummim,
(Pinyno bende ne okwan kaka piny jo-Refai mane osebedo kodak kuno, to jo-Amon to ne luongogi ni jo-Zamzumi.
21 a people great, and many, and tall, as the Anakim; but the LORD destroyed them before them; and they succeeded them, and dwelt in their stead;
Gin oganda marateke, mangʼeny kendo ma roboche mana ka jo-Anak. Jehova Nyasaye ne otiekogi e nyim jo-Amon, mane oriembogi mi gidak kuondegigo.
22 as He did for the children of Esau, that dwell in Seir, when He destroyed the Horites from before them; and they succeeded them, and dwelt in their stead even unto this day;
Jehova Nyasaye ne osetimo mano ne nyikwa Esau, mane odak Seir, e kinde mane otieko jo-Hori ka gineno. Negiriembogi oko kendo gidak kanyo nyaka chil kawuono.
23 and the Avvim, that dwelt in villages as far as Gaza, the Caphtorim, that came forth out of Caphtor, destroyed them, and dwelt in their stead. —
To jo-Kaftor mane oa Kaftor noriembo jo-Avi mabor nyaka e gwenge mag Gaza, mi koro gidak kanyo.)
24 Rise ye up, take your journey, and pass over the valley of Arnon; behold, I have given into thy hand Sihon the Amorite, king of Heshbon, and his land; begin to possess it, and contend with him in battle.
“Koro ikreuru kendo ukadh holo mar Arnon. Neuru, asechiwo e lwetu Sihon ja-Amor ma ruodh Heshbon kod pinye. Chakuru kedo kodgi mondo ukawe.
25 This day will I begin to put the dread of thee and the fear of thee upon the peoples that are under the whole heaven, who, when they hear the report of thee, shall tremble, and be in anguish because of thee.'
Kochakore odiechiengni abiro kelo luoro kod kibaji ne ogendini duto modak e piny. E kinde ma giniwinjie humbu, gibiro kirni kendo kihondko biro makogi.”
26 And I sent messengers out of the wilderness of Kedemoth unto Sihon king of Heshbon with words of peace, saying:
Koa e thim mar Kedemoth, ne aoro joote ne Sihon ma ruodh Heshbon kakwaye mondo kwe obedie kawachone niya,
27 'Let me pass through thy land; I will go along by the highway, I will neither turn unto the right hand nor to the left.
“Yienwauru wakal e pinyu nikech wabiro luwo yo tir kendo ok wanabar e bat korachwich kata koracham.
28 Thou shalt sell me food for money, that I may eat; and give me water for money, that I may drink; only let me pass through on my feet;
Yie iusnwa chiemo mwachamo kod pi mwamodho nikech nengogi romre gi fedha, kendo iwewa aweya wakadhi kwawuotho gi tiendwa,
29 as the children of Esau that dwell in Seir, and the Moabites that dwell in Ar, did unto me; until I shall pass over the Jordan into the land which the LORD our God giveth us.'
mana kaka nyikwa Esau mane odak Seir kod jo-Moab modak Ar ne jotimonwa, negiweyo wangʼado Jordan miwadonjo e piny ma Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachwa miyowa.”
30 But Sihon king of Heshbon would not let us pass by him; for the LORD thy God hardened his spirit, and made his heart obstinate, that He might deliver him into thy hand, as appeareth this day.
To Sihon ruodh Heshbon ne otamowa kadho e pinygi nimar Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachwa nosemiye wich teko, kendo chunye odoko matek mondo ochiwe e lwetu mana kaka osetimo.
31 And the LORD said unto me: 'Behold, I have begun to deliver up Sihon and his land before thee; begin to possess his land.'
Jehova Nyasaye nowachona niya, “Neuru, koro achiwo Sihon kod pinye e lwetu, koro monjeuru mondo ukaw pinyeno.”
32 Then Sihon came out against us, he and all his people, unto battle at Jahaz.
Kane Sihon kod jolwenje duto nobiro mondo ochak kodwa lweny e piny Jahaz,
33 And the LORD our God delivered him up before us; and we smote him, and his sons, and all his people.
Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachwa nochiwe e lwetwa kendo ne watieke gi nyithinde kod jolwenje duto.
34 And we took all his cities at that time, and utterly destroyed every city, the men, and the women, and the little ones; we left none remaining;
E kindeno ne wakawo mieche duto, mi wanego, chwo, mon kod nyithindo duto, kendo onge ngʼama ne waweyo kangima.
35 only the cattle we took for a prey unto ourselves, with the spoil of the cities which we had taken.
To jamni kod gik moyaki mane oa e miechgi mane wakawo ne wadhi godo.
36 From Aroer, which is on the edge of the valley of Arnon, and from the city that is in the valley, even unto Gilead, there was not a city too high for us: the LORD our God delivered up all before us.
Onge dala mane nyalo sirowa e lweny chakre Aroer, e dho holo mar Arnon kod dala manie holo hie nyaka chop Gilead kendo onge kata mana dala achiel mane ok wanyal kawo. Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachwa nochiwogi duto e lwetwa.
37 Only to the land of the children of Ammon thou camest not near; all the side of the river Jabbok, and the cities of the hill-country, and wheresoever the LORD our God forbade us.
To kaluwore gi chik Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachwa, ne ok ukawo piny jo-Amon moro amora kata mana piny mokiewo gi Jabok kata mago molworo dalane manie gode.
