Deuteronomy 4
1 And now, O Israel, hearken unto the statutes and unto the ordinances, which I teach you, to do them; that ye may live, and go in and possess the land which the LORD, the God of your fathers, giveth you.
Yaye, jo-Israel, winjuru buche kod chike ma amiyou, luwgi mondo udagi kendo mondo ukaw piny ma Jehova Nyasaye, ma Nyasach kwereu miyou.
2 Ye shall not add unto the word which I command you, neither shall ye diminish from it, that ye may keep the commandments of the LORD your God which I command you.
Kik umedi kata ugol gimoro amora kuom chik ma amiyou, to rituru chike ma amiyou mag Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu.
3 Your eyes have seen what the LORD did in Baal-peor; for all the men that followed the Baal of Peor, the LORD thy God hath destroyed them from the midst of thee.
Ne uneno gi wengeu uwegi gima Jehova Nyasaye ne otimo Baal Peor. Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu notieko koa kuomu jogo duto mane oluwo Baal mar Peor,
4 But ye that did cleave unto the LORD your God are alive every one of you this day.
to ne un uduto mane usiko kupadoru kuom Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu pod ungima nyaka chil kawuono.
5 Behold, I have taught you statutes and ordinances, even as the LORD my God commanded me, that ye should do so in the midst of the land whither ye go in to possess it.
Ne, asepuonjou buche kod chike kaka ne Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasacha nochika, mondo uluw chikenego e piny mudhidonjoe kendo kawo.
6 Observe therefore and do them; for this is your wisdom and your understanding in the sight of the peoples, that, when they hear all these statutes, shall say: 'Surely this great nation is a wise and understanding people.'
Ritgiuru maber, nimar mano ema biro nyiso riekou gi ngʼeyou ni ogendini mamoko mabiro winjo buchegi duto wach niya, “Adier, onge oganda mariek kendo man-gi ngʼeyo koganda maduongʼni.”
7 For what great nation is there, that hath God so nigh unto them, as the LORD our God is whensoever we call upon Him?
Ere oganda machielo ma ogen man kod nyasachgi machiegni e yo ma Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachwa chiegnigo kodwa e yo moro amora ma walame?
8 And what great nation is there, that hath statutes and ordinances so righteous as all this law, which I set before you this day?
Kara ere oganda machielo maduongʼ man kod buche gi chike makare machal gi chike mamiyou kawuononi?
9 Only take heed to thyself, and keep thy soul diligently, lest thou forget the things which thine eyes saw, and lest they depart from thy heart all the days of thy life; but make them known unto thy children and thy children's children;
Beduru motangʼ kendo neuru ni wiu ok owil gi gik museneno gi wangʼu kendo kik uwegi gia e chunyu ka pod ungima. Puonjuru nyithindu kod nyikwau wechegi.
10 the day that thou stoodest before the LORD thy God in Horeb, when the LORD said unto me: 'Assemble Me the people, and I will make them hear My words that they may learn to fear Me all the days that they live upon the earth, and that they may teach their children.'
Paruruane chiengʼ mane uchungʼ e nyim Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu e Horeb, kane owachona niya, “Chok ji e nyima ka mondo giwinj wechena mondo mi gipuonjre luora ndalo duto mag ngimagi kendo bende gipuonj nyithindgi wechegi.”
11 And ye came near and stood under the mountain; and the mountain burned with fire unto the heart of heaven, with darkness, cloud, and thick darkness.
Ne ubiro machiegni ma uchungʼ e tiend got. Godno mach ne liele mochopo nyaka e polo, ka en-gi rumbi maratengʼ kod mudho mandiwa.
12 And the LORD spoke unto you out of the midst of the fire; ye heard the voice of words, but ye saw no form; only a voice.
Eka Jehova Nyasaye ne owuoyonu kokalo ei mach. Ne uwinjo dwol kawuok ei mach, to ne ok uneno ngʼat mane wuoyono, to makmana dwol kende ema nuwinjo.
13 And He declared unto you His covenant, which He commanded you to perform, even the ten words; and He wrote them upon two tables of stone.
Ne owachonu singruokne, ma gin Chike Apar, mane ochikou mondo uluw kendo ne ondikogi e kite mopa ariyo.
14 And the LORD commanded me at that time to teach you statutes and ordinances, that ye might do them in the land whither ye go over to possess it.
Kendo Jehova Nyasaye ne owachona e kindeno mondo apuonju buche kod chike ma onego uluw e piny ma udhiye loka Jordan mondo ukaw.
15 Take ye therefore good heed unto yourselves — for ye saw no manner of form on the day that the LORD spoke unto you in Horeb out of the midst of the fire —
Ne ok uneno Jehova Nyasaye gi wangʼu e kinde mane uwinjo dwonde koa e mach e got Horeb. Omiyo beduru motangʼ ahinya,
16 lest ye deal corruptly, and make you a graven image, even the form of any figure, the likeness of male or female,
mondo kik ubed jo-mibadhi ka uloso nyisecheu uwegi, kata kido moro amora mochwe ka dichwo kata ka dhako,
17 the likeness of any beast that is on the earth, the likeness of any winged fowl that flieth in the heaven,
kata ka chiayo moro e piny kata ka winyo mafuyo e kor polo,
18 the likeness of any thing that creepeth on the ground, the likeness of any fish that is in the water under the earth;
kata ka gimoro amora mochwe mamol e lowo kata ka rech manie pi.
19 and lest thou lift up thine eyes unto heaven, and when thou seest the sun and the moon and the stars, even all the host of heaven, thou be drawn away and worship them, and serve them, which the LORD thy God hath allotted unto all the peoples under the whole heaven.
Ka ungʼiyo polo ma uneno chiengʼ, dwe kod sulwe karieny (ma gin gigo manyiso duongʼ mar polo), to kik gimak pachu mi ukulrunegi ka ulamo. Gin gigo ma Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu osemiyo jopinje duto manie piny bwo polo.
20 But you hath the LORD taken and brought forth out of the iron furnace, out of Egypt, to be unto Him a people of inheritance, as ye are this day.
To un, Jehova Nyasaye noresou mogolou e mach mager kuwuok e piny Misri mondo ubed kaka girkeni mare nyaka chiengʼ, mana kaka un sani.
21 Now the LORD was angered with me for your sakes, and swore that I should not go over the Jordan, and that I should not go in unto that good land, which the LORD thy God giveth thee for an inheritance;
Jehova Nyasaye nokecho koda nikech un, kendo ne okwongʼoreni ok anangʼad aora Jordan mondo adonji e piny maber ma Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu miyou ka girkeni.
22 but I must die in this land, I must not go over the Jordan; but ye are to go over, and possess that good land.
Abiro tho e pinyni, ok anangʼad aora Jordan, to un uchiegni ngʼado mondo udhi ukaw kereu e piny maberno.
23 Take heed unto yourselves, lest ye forget the covenant of the LORD your God, which He made with you, and make you a graven image, even the likeness of any thing which the LORD thy God hath forbidden thee.
Beduru motangʼ mondo kik wiu wil gi singruok mane Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu otimo kodu, kik ulos ne un uwegi kido moro amora milamo ma Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu okwero.
24 For the LORD thy God is a devouring fire, a jealous God.
Nimar Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu en mach matieko gik mowangʼo kendo en Nyasaye ma janyiego.
25 When thou shalt beget children, and children's children, and ye shall have been long in the land, and shall deal corruptly, and make a graven image, even the form of any thing, and shall do that which is evil in the sight of the LORD thy God, to provoke Him;
Bangʼ ka usedak e pinyno kuom higni mangʼeny mi ubedo gi nyithindo kod nyikwau, bangʼe ubedo jo-mibadhi ma uloso kido mopa kendo utimo gik mamono e wangʼ Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu, ka umiye mirima;
26 I call heaven and earth to witness against you this day, that ye shall soon utterly perish from off the land whereunto ye go over the Jordan to possess it; ye shall not prolong your days upon it, but shall utterly be destroyed.
to aluongo polo gi piny mondo obed joneno kuomu kawuono, ni ubiro rumo mapiyo nono e piny ma ubiro kawo loka Jordan.
27 And the LORD shall scatter you among the peoples, and ye shall be left few in number among the nations, whither the LORD shall lead you away.
Jehova Nyasaye biro keyou e dier ogendini kendo ji manok kuomu ema notony e kind pinje ma Jehova Nyasaye noterue.
28 And there ye shall serve gods, the work of men's hands, wood and stone, which neither see, nor hear, nor eat, nor smell.
Kuno unulamie gik ma dhano oloso gi lwetgi, ma gin nyiseche molos gi bao kata gi kite mopa, gin gik ma ok nyal neno, winjo, chiemo kata winjo tik gimoro.
29 But from thence ye will seek the LORD thy God; and thou shalt find Him, if thou search after Him with all thy heart and with all thy soul.
To ka udwaro Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu kanyo, to unuyude ka umanye gi chunyu duto kod ngimau duto.
30 In thy distress, when all these things are come upon thee, in the end of days, thou wilt return to the LORD thy God, and hearken unto His voice;
Bangʼ ka gigi duto osetimorenu mi ubedo gi chuny mool, eka unuduog ir Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu kendo uluore.
31 for the LORD thy God is a merciful God; He will not fail thee, neither destroy thee, nor forget the covenant of thy fathers which He swore unto them.
Nimar Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu en Nyasaye ma jangʼwono ok enojwangʼu kata tiekou kata wiye wil kod singruok mane otimo gi kwereu kokwongʼore.
32 For ask now of the days past, which were before thee, since the day that God created man upon the earth, and from the one end of heaven unto the other, whether there hath been any such thing as this great thing is, or hath been heard like it?
Penj ane sani gik mane timore chon, ndalo mane pok onywolu, kochakore e ndalo mane Nyasaye ochweyo dhano e piny; penj ane koa e bath polo konchiel nyaka komachielo. Bende gima duongʼ kama osetimore kata gima chal kama osewinji?
33 Did ever a people hear the voice of God speaking out of the midst of the fire, as thou hast heard, and live?
Bende nitie oganda moro mosewinjo dwond Nyasaye kawuoyo e mach kaka usewinjoni ma obedo mangima?
34 Or hath God assayed to go and take Him a nation from the midst of another nation, by trials, by signs, and by wonders, and by war, and by a mighty hand, and by an outstretched arm, and by great terrors, according to all that the LORD your God did for you in Egypt before thine eyes?
Bende nitiere nyasaye moro mosegolo oganda kuom oganda machielo moselok wasumbini? Koso bende nitiere moro mosetemo timo timbe madongogi gi ranyisi, honni gi lweny kendo gi teko maduongʼ kod bat morie kaka Jehova Nyasaye notimonu e piny Misri e wangʼu kuneno.
35 Unto thee it was shown, that thou mightiest know that the LORD, He is God; there is none else beside Him.
Osenyisu gigi duto mondo ungʼe ni Jehova Nyasaye en Nyasaye; onge Nyasaye moro ma ok en.
36 Out of heaven He made thee to hear His voice, that He might instruct thee; and upon earth He made thee to see His great fire; and thou didst hear His words out of the midst of the fire.
Noyie uwinjo dwonde gie polo mond opuonjugo. Bende noyienu ma uneno mach makakni e piny, kendo nuwinjo dwonde ei majno.
37 And because He loved thy fathers, and chose their seed after them, and brought thee out with His presence, with His great power, out of Egypt,
Nikech ne ohero kwereu mi oyiero nyikwagi bangʼ-gi, ne ogolou Misri en owuon kod tekone maduongʼ,
38 to drive out nations from before thee greater and mightier than thou, to bring thee in, to give thee their land for an inheritance, as it is this day;
mondo ogol oko ogendini maroteke moloyou, kokelou e pinygi mondo omiu bedo girkeni kaka en kawuononi.
39 know this day, and lay it to thy heart, that the LORD, He is God in heaven above and upon the earth beneath; there is none else.
Yie kendo ikaw odiechiengni obed ei chunyi ni Jehova Nyasaye en Nyasaye e polo malo kendo e piny mwalo. Onge Nyasaye moro machielo.
40 And thou shalt keep His statutes, and His commandments, which I command thee this day, that it may go well with thee, and with thy children after thee, and that thou mayest prolong thy days upon the land, which the LORD thy God giveth thee, for ever.
Emomiyo rituru buchene kod chikene ma amiyou kawuono, mondo gik moko odhi maber kodu gi nyithindu kendo mondo udag amingʼa e piny ma Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu miyou e kinde duto e piny.
41 Then Moses separated three cities beyond the Jordan toward the sunrising;
Eka Musa noketo tenge mier adek madongo man yo wuok chiengʼ mar aora Jordan,
42 that the manslayer might flee thither, that slayeth his neighbour unawares, and hated him not in time past; and that fleeing unto one of these cities he might live:
ma gin kuonde ma ka ngʼato onego wadgi ka ok ochano, to onyalo ringo dhi pondo kuondego mantie e miechgi madongo mondo ores ngimane.
43 Bezer in the wilderness, in the table-land, for the Reubenites; and Ramoth in Gilead, for the Gadites; and Golan in Bashan, for the Manassites.
Mier madongo-go gin magi: Bezer manie pinje gode motwo, mano ne jo-Reuben; Ramoth ei Gilead, obed kar jo-Gad; kendo Golan ei Bashan obed mar jo-Manase.
44 And this is the law which Moses set before the children of Israel;
Ma e chik mane Musa omiyo jo-Israel.
45 these are the testimonies, and the statutes, and the ordinances, which Moses spoke unto the children of Israel, when they came forth out of Egypt;
Magi e weche, buche kod chike mane Musa omiyogi kane giwuok Misri,
46 beyond the Jordan, in the valley over against Beth-peor, in the land of Sihon king of the Amorites, who dwelt at Heshbon, whom Moses and the children of Israel smote, when they came forth out of Egypt;
kane gin e holo machiegni gi Beth Peor man yo wuok chiengʼ mar Jordan, e piny Sihon ruodh jo-Amor mane nigi loch Heshbon kendo ne oloye gi Musa kod jo-Israel kane giwuok Misri.
47 and they took his land in possession, and the land of Og king of Bashan, the two kings of the Amorites, who were beyond the Jordan toward the sunrising;
Negikawo pinye gi piny Og ruodh Bashan, mane gin gi ruodhi ariyo mag jo-Amor man loka yo wuok chiengʼ mar Jordan.
48 from Aroer, which is on the edge of the valley of Arnon, even unto mount Sion — the same is Hermon —
Pinyni nochakore Aroer koa e dier holo mar Arnon mochopo nyaka Got Siyon (tiende ni, Hermon),
49 and all the Arabah beyond the Jordan eastward, even unto the sea of the Arabah, under the slopes of Pisgah.
kendo nokawo gwenge mag Araba man yo wuok chiengʼ mar Jordan, mochopo nyaka Nam mar Araba mantiere e tiend gode mag Pisga.
