< Deuteronomy 12 >

1 “These [are] the statutes and the judgments which you observe to do in the land which YHWH, God of your fathers, has given to you to possess it, all the days that you are living on the ground.
“Pa inge ma sap ac ma oakwuk su kowos in akos ke lusen pacl kowos moul muta fin facl se su LEUM GOD lun papa matu tomowos El asot nu suwos.
2 You utterly destroy all the places where the nations which you are dispossessing served their gods, on the high mountains, and on the heights, and under every green tree;
Ke kowos ac lusla mwet in mutunfacl sac, kowos in kunausla acn nukewa ma mwet uh alu nu sin god lalos uh we — fineol uh, fin inging uh, ac ye sak folfol uh.
3 and you have broken down their altars, and shattered their standing pillars, and you burn their Asherim with fire, and you cut down carved images of their gods, and have destroyed their name out of that place.
Kunausla loang lalos nukewa, ac fukulya sru eot lalos in muliplipi. Esukak mwe akul nukewa ke Asherah, god mutan lalos, ac pakpakiya ma sruloala lalos, tuh mwet uh fah tia ku in sifil alu nu kac fin acn ingan.
4 You do not do so to your God YHWH;
“Nimet alu nu sin LEUM GOD lowos in ouiya ma mwet inge oru ke elos alu nu sin god lalos.
5 rather—that you seek after the place which your God YHWH chooses out of all your tribes to put His Name there, for His Dwelling Place, and you have entered there,
LEUM GOD El ac fah sulela sie sin acn inmasrlon sruf nukewa lowos, tuh mwet uh in tuku nu ye mutal ac alu nu sel we.
6 and have brought in there your burnt-offerings, and your sacrifices, and your tithes, and the raised-offering of your hand, and your vows, and your free-will offerings, and the firstlings of your herd and of your flock;
Kowos ac fah oru mwe kisa firir lowos we, oayapa mwe kisa lowos saya: sie tafu singoul liki ma lowos, ac mwe sang lowos, mwe kite ma kowos wuleang nu sin LEUM GOD kac, mwe kisa ke engan na lun mwet se in oru, ac wounse ke cow ac sheep nutuwos.
7 and you have eaten there before your God YHWH, and have rejoiced in every putting forth of your hand, you and your households, with which your God YHWH has blessed you.
Na ingo, ye mutun LEUM GOD lowos su akinsewowoye kowos, kowos ac sou lowos fah mongo ac engankin orekma wo kowos orala.
8 You do not do according to all that we are doing here today—each [doing] anything that is right in his own eyes—
“In pacl sac, kowos in tia oru oana kowos oru meet ah. Nwe ke pacl se inge kowos nukewa alu oana lungse lowos,
9 for until now you have not come to the rest and to the inheritance which your God YHWH is giving to you.
mweyen kowos soenna ilyak nu in facl se su LEUM GOD lowos El asot nu suwos, yen kowos ac mutana we in misla.
10 When you have passed over the Jordan, and have dwelt in the land which your God YHWH is causing you to inherit, and He has given rest to you from all your surrounding enemies, and you have dwelt confidently,
Ke pacl se kowos ac fah alukela Infacl Jordan, LEUM GOD El ac lela kowos in eis facl sac ac muta we. El ac fah karingin kowos liki mwet lokoalok lowos nukewa, ac kowos fah muta in misla.
11 then it has been, the place on which your God YHWH fixes to cause His Name to dwell there, there you bring in all that which I am commanding you: your burnt-offerings, and your sacrifices, your tithes, and the raised-offering of your hand, and all the choice of your vows which you vow to YHWH.
LEUM GOD El ac fah sulela siena acn kowos in alu nu sel we, na ingo kowos ac fah use nu yorol ma nukewa ma nga sapkin: mwe kisa firir lowos ac oayapa mwe kisa lowos saya, sie tafu singoul lowos, mwe sang lowos, ac mwe kite mutal lowos ma kowos wuleang kac nu sin LEUM GOD.
12 And you have rejoiced before your God YHWH, you, and your sons, and your daughters, and your menservants, and your handmaids, and the Levite who [is] within your gates, for he has no part and inheritance with you.
Kowos in engan we ye mutal, wi tulik nutuwos, mwet kulansap lowos, ac mwet Levi su muta in siti suwos. Esam lah wangin acn lun mwet Levi sifacna.
13 Take heed to yourself lest you cause your burnt-offerings to ascend in any place which you see;
Kowos fah tia oru mwe kisa lowos ke acn kowos sifacna sulela;
14 rather—that in the place which YHWH chooses in one of your tribes, there you cause your burnt-offerings to ascend, and there you do all that which I am commanding you.
a kowos fah oru ke acn sefanna ma LEUM GOD El sulela: sie acn ke sie sin sruf lowos. Acn sac mukena pa kowos fah oru mwe kisa firir lowos we, ac oru pac ma nukewa nga sapkin nu suwos.
15 Nevertheless, you slaughter anything of the desire of your soul, and have eaten [its] flesh according to the blessing of your God YHWH which He has given to you in all your gates; the unclean and the clean eat it, as [if] the roe and as [if] the deer.
“Tusruktu kowos sukosok in uniya ac kang kosro nutuwos yen nukewa kowos muta we. Kowos ku in kang pisa na kowos lungse, fal nu ke ma LEUM GOD El sot nu suwos. Kowos nukewa — mwet ma aknasnasyeyukla ac mwet ma tia aknasnasyeyukla — ku in kang, oana ke kowos kang ikwen deer ku antelope.
16 Only, you do not eat the blood—you pour it on the earth as water;
Tusruktu kowos fah tiana kang srah kac uh. Kowos fah okoala nu infohk uh oana kof uh.
17 you are not able to eat within your gates the tithe of your grain, and of your new wine, and your oil, and the firstlings of your herd and of your flock, and any of your vows which you vow, and your free-will offerings, and a raised-offering of your hand;
Nimet kang kutena ma kowos kisakin nu sin LEUM GOD ke acn kowos muta we — tia mwe sang ke sie tafu singoul ke wheat lowos, wain lowos, ku oil in olive lowos; tia pac wounsien cow ac sheep nutuwos, ku mwe kite ma kowos wuleang kac nu sin LEUM GOD, ku mwe sang kowos oru ke engan na lowos in oru, ku kutena mwe sang saya.
18 but you eat it before your God YHWH in the place which your God YHWH fixes on, you, and your son, and your daughter, and your manservant, and your handmaid, and the Levite who [is] within your gates, and you have rejoiced before your God YHWH in every putting forth of your hand;
Kowos ac tulik nutuwos, wi mwet kulansap lowos ac mwet Levi su muta in siti suwos, fah mongo ma inge ye mutun LEUM GOD lowos mukena, in acn in alu se na ma LEUM GOD lowos El sulela. Ac kowos in engan we ke orekma nukewa ma kowos orala.
19 take heed to yourself lest you forsake the Levite [for] all your days on your ground.
Esam pac in tia pilesru mwet Levi ke lusenna pacl kowos muta in fahl suwos.
20 When your God YHWH enlarges your border, as He has spoken to you, and you have said, Let me eat flesh—for your soul desires to eat flesh—you eat flesh of all the desire of your soul.
“Ke pacl se LEUM GOD lowos El ac akyokyelik acn suwos uh, oana ke El tuh wulela kac, kowos ku in mongo ikwa ke pacl na kowos lungse.
21 When the place is far from you [in] which your God YHWH chooses to put His Name there, then you have sacrificed from your herd and from your flock which YHWH has given to you, as I have commanded you, and have eaten within your gates, of all the desire of your soul;
Fin acn in alu sac arulana loesla, na kutena pacl ma kowos lungse, kowos ku in uniya soko sin cow ku sheep ma LEUM GOD El sot nu suwos, ac kowos ku in kang ikwa kac in acn suwos, oana ke nga tuh fahk nu suwos.
22 only, as the roe and the deer is eaten, so do you eat it; the unclean and the clean alike eat it.
Kutena mwet — elos su aknasnasyeyukla ku elos su tia nasnasyeyukla — ku in kang ikwa inge, oana ke el kang ikwen deer ku antelope.
23 Only, be sure not to eat the blood, for the blood [is] the life, and you do not eat the life with the flesh;
Ma sefanna, nimet kang ikwa ma srakna oasr srah kac, mweyen moul uh oasr ke srah uh, na kowos fah tia kang moul sac wi ikwa sac.
24 you do not eat it—you pour it on the earth as water;
Nimet orekmakin srah nu ke mwe mongo, a okoala nu infohk uh oana kof uh.
25 you do not eat it, in order that it may be well with you and with your sons after you when you do that which [is] right in the eyes of YHWH.
Kowos in tia kang srah, na ma nukewa ac fah wo nu suwos ac nu sin fwilin tulik nutuwos, mweyen kowos oru ma suwohs ye mutun LEUM GOD.
26 Only, your holy things which you have, and your vows, you take up, and have gone to the place which YHWH chooses,
Kowos in us mwe sang lowos ac mwe kite ma kowos wuleang kac nu ke acn in alu sefanna ma LEUM GOD El fah sulela.
27 and you have made your burnt-offerings—the flesh and the blood—on the altar of your God YHWH; and the blood of your sacrifices is poured out by the altar of your God YHWH, and you eat the flesh.
Kisakin ingo mwe kisa ma enenu in firirla nufon fin loang lun LEUM GOD. Oayapa mwe kisa su kowos ac kang ikwa kac uh ac okoala srah kac fin loang uh.
28 Observe, and you have obeyed all these words which I am commanding you, in order that it may be well with you and with your sons after you for all time, when you do that which [is] good and right in the eyes of your God YHWH.
Oaru in akos ma nukewa nga sapkin nu suwos, ac ma nukewa fah wo nu suwos ac fwilin tulik nutuwos nwe tok, mweyen kowos oru ma suwohs ac ma su akinsewowoye LEUM GOD lowos.
29 When your God YHWH cuts off the nations—to where you are going in to possess them—from your presence, and you have possessed them, and have dwelt in their land—
“LEUM GOD lowos fah kunausla mutunfacl nukewa kowos fah mweuni, ac kowos ac fah eis facl selos ac oakwuki we.
30 take heed to yourself lest you are ensnared after them, after their being destroyed out of your presence, and lest you inquire about their gods, saying, How do these nations serve their gods, that I also do so?
Tukun LEUM GOD El kunausla mutunfacl inge, na kowos in arulana karinganang tuh kowos in tia sruhfla ke alu lalos. Kowos in tia srike in konauk lah elos alu fuka nu sin god lalos tuh kowos in etaelos.
31 You do not do so to your God YHWH; for every abomination that YHWH has hated they have done for their gods, for they even burn their sons and their daughters with fire for their gods.
Nimet alu nu sin LEUM GOD lowos in ouiya ma elos alu nu sin god lalos, tuh ke elos alu nu sin god lalos elos oru ma nukewa ma srungayuk yurin LEUM GOD. Elos kisakin pac tulik natulos in e fin loang lalos.
32 The whole thing which I am commanding you, you observe to do it; you do not add to it, nor diminish from it.”
“Oru ma nukewa ma nga sapkin nu suwos. Nimet laesla kutena ma nu kac, ku eisla kutena ma liki.
