< Leviticus 18 >

1 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
Jehova Nyasaye nowacho ne Musa niya:
2 Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, I am the LORD your God.
“Wuo gi jo-Israel kendo iwachnegi ni, ‘An e Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu.
3 After the doings of the land of Egypt, wherein ye dwelt, shall ye not do: and after the doings of the land of Canaan, whither I bring you, shall ye not do: neither shall ye walk in their statutes.
Kik utim timbe ma jo-Misri mane udak e diergi timo kendo kik timbe moko mag jo-Kanaan makoro aterou e diergi yudre kuomu. Bende kik uluw timbe ma gitimo.
4 My judgments shall ye do, and my statutes shall ye keep, to walk therein: I am the LORD your God.
Nyaka urit chikena kendo luwuru yorena, nikech an Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu.
5 Ye shall therefore keep my statutes, and my judgments: which if a man do, he shall live in them: I am the LORD.
Rituru yorena kod chikena, nimar ngʼat moluwogi nobed mangima kuomgi. An e Jehova Nyasaye.
6 None of you shall approach to any that is near of kin to him, to uncover [their] nakedness: I am the LORD.
“‘Kik ngʼato terre gi dhako moluongo ni watne. An e Jehova Nyasaye.
7 The nakedness of thy father, even the nakedness of thy mother, shalt thou not uncover: she is thy mother; thou shalt not uncover her nakedness.
“‘Kik ikuod wi wuonu kuom terruok gi chiege, nikech en minu.
8 The nakedness of thy father’s wife shalt thou not uncover: it is thy father’s nakedness.
“‘Kik iterri gi chi wuonu, nikech kitimo kamano to ikelone wuonu wichkuot.
9 The nakedness of thy sister, the daughter of thy father, or the daughter of thy mother, whether born at home, or born abroad, even their nakedness thou shalt not uncover.
“‘Kik iterri gi nyaminu mahie, kata nyameru maka wuonu machielo kata maka minu machielo, bedni onywole e dala kae, kata kamoro machielo.
10 The nakedness of thy son’s daughter, or of thy daughter’s daughter, even their nakedness thou shalt not uncover: for theirs is thine own nakedness.
“‘Kik iterri gi nyakwari maka wuodi kata maka nyari, nikech kitimo kamano to ikelo wichkuot ni in iwuon.
11 The nakedness of thy father’s wife’s daughter, begotten of thy father, she is thy sister, thou shalt not uncover her nakedness.
“‘Kik iterri gi nyaminu moa e ot machielo, nikech en nyaminu.
12 Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy father’s sister: she is thy father’s near kinswoman.
“‘Kik iterri gi nyamin wuonu nikech en wayu.
13 Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy mother’s sister: for she is thy mother’s near kinswoman.
“‘Kik iterri gi nyamin mamau nikech en bende en mamau.
14 Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy father’s brother, thou shalt not approach to his wife: she is thine aunt.
“‘Kik igomb terori gi chi owadgi wuonu nikech en minu, kendo mano kelo wichkuot ne wuonuno.
15 Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy daughter in law: she is thy son’s wife; thou shalt not uncover her nakedness.
“‘Kik iterri gi chi wuodi nikech en maru, ok oyieni mondo itim kamano.
16 Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy brother’s wife: it is thy brother’s nakedness.
“‘Kik iterri gi chi owadu nikech mano nyalo kelo wichkuot ne owaduno.
17 Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of a woman and her daughter; thou shalt not take her son’s daughter, or her daughter’s daughter, to uncover her nakedness; they are near kinswomen: it is wickedness.
“‘Kik iterri gi nyako kaachiel gi min-gi. Kik iterri gi nyakware ma ka wuode kata maka nyare, nikech gin wede dhakono. Mano en tim anjawo.
18 And thou shalt not take a woman to her sister, to be a rival [to her], to uncover her nakedness, beside the other in her life time.
“‘Kik ikend nyamin chiegi mondo obed nyieke ma iriwri kode ka nyamin pod ngima.
19 And thou shalt not approach unto a woman to uncover her nakedness, as long as she is impure by her uncleanness.
“‘Kik iterri gi dhako manie kindene mar neno malo.
20 And thou shalt not lie carnally with thy neighbour’s wife, to defile thyself with her.
“‘Kik iterri gi chi ngʼama udakgo mokiewo, dipo ka omiyo ibedo mogak.
21 And thou shalt not give any of thy seed to make them pass through [the fire] to Molech, neither shalt thou profane the name of thy God: I am the LORD.
“‘Kik ichiw nyathini moro amora ni nyasaye manono miluongo ni Molek, nimar ok onego iketh nying Nyasaye. An e Jehova Nyasaye.
22 Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it is abomination.
“‘Kik iterri gi dichwo wadu nikech mano en tim makwero.
23 And thou shalt not lie with any beast to defile thyself therewith: neither shall any woman stand before a beast, to lie down thereto: it is confusion.
“‘Kik iterri gi chiayo nikech mano miyo ibedo mogak. Dhako bende kik yie mondo chiayo oterre kode, nikech mano en gima kwero.
24 Defile not ye yourselves in any of these things: for in all these the nations are defiled which I cast out from before you:
“‘Kik udwanyru kutimo timbe ma kamago nikech timbego ema ogendini mabiro riembo e nyimu ne timo.
25 And the land is defiled: therefore I do visit the iniquity thereof upon it, and the land vomiteth out her inhabitants.
Kata mana piny bende nobedo mogak, omiyo ne akumogi nikech richo mag-gi, kendo piny nongʼogo joma nodakie iye.
26 Ye therefore shall keep my statutes and my judgments, and shall not do any of these abominations; neither the homeborn, nor the stranger that sojourneth among you:
To nyaka urit yorena kod chikena. Onge ngʼato kuomu manotim timbe makwerogo kata obed ja-Israel kata jadak e dieru,
27 (for all these abominations have the men of the land done, which were before you, and the land is defiled; )
nikech magi e timbe ma joma nodak e pinyni kapok ubiro notimo kendo negiketho pinyni.
28 that the land vomit not you out also, when ye defile it, as it vomited out the nation that was before you.
To ka udwanyo pinyno, to ngʼeuru ni onyalo ngʼogou oko mar oganda mane okwongonu dake kane gidwanye.
29 For whosoever shall do any of these abominations, even the souls that do them shall be cut off from among their people.
“‘Jogo duto matim makwerogo noyud e ngimagi, ginto nyaka golgi oko ei ogandagi.
30 Therefore shall ye keep my charge, that ye do not any of these abominable customs, which were done before you, and that ye defile not yourselves therein: I am the LORD your God.
Emomiyo luwuru chikena kendo ritreuru ma kik uluw timbe makwero mane joma odak e pinyni otimo kapok ubiro, mondo kik ubed mogak. An e Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu.’”
