Exodus 33
1 Yahweh said to Moses/me, “Leave this place and go with the people whom you led out of Egypt. Go to the land that I promised Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob that I would give to their descendants.
Eka Jehova Nyasaye nowacho ne Musa niya, “Wuoguru ka in kaachiel gi jok mane igolo e piny Misri kendo dhiuru e piny mane asingo ka akwongʼora ne Ibrahim, Isaka kod Jakobo kawachonegi ni, ‘Anamiye nyikwau.’
2 I will send my angel ahead of you all, and I will expel [from that land] the Canaan, Amor, Heth, Periz, Hiv, and Jebus people-groups.
Abiro oro Malaika mondo otel e nyimu kendo obiro riembo jo-Kanaan gi jo-Amor gi jo-Hiti gi jo-Perizi gi jo-Hivi kod jo-Jebus.
3 You will go to a land that will be very good for raising livestock and growing crops [IDM]. But I will not go with you myself, because [if I did that], I might get rid of you while you are traveling, because you are very stubborn [IDM] people.”
Dhiuru e piny mopongʼ gi chak kod mor kich. To ok anadhi kodu nikech un oganda ma tokgi tek kendo dipo ka atiekou e wangʼ yo.”
4 Yahweh said to Moses/me, “Tell the Israeli people, ‘You are very stubborn [IDM]. If I would go with you for even a moment, I would completely (get rid of you/wipe you out). Now take off your jewelry [to show that you are sorry for having sinned]. Then I will decide how I will punish you (OR, if I should punish you).’” So when Moses/I told to the people what God said, they started to mourn, and they all took off their jewelry.
Kane oganda owinjo weche manyoso chunygo negichako ywak maonge ngʼama nolichore gi gimoro amora e dende.
Nimar Jehova Nyasaye nosewacho ni Musa niya, “Nyis jo-Israel kama, ‘Un oganda ma tokgi tek. Ka anyalo dhi kodu kata matin, to anyalo tiekou. Koro goluru oko gik mulichogo dendu eka anane gima anyalo timo kodu.’”
6 After the Israeli people left Sinai Mountain, they did not wear jewelry any more.
Kuom mano jo-Israel nogolo oko gik mane gilichogo dendgi ka gin e tiend Got Horeb.
7 [When the Israeli people traveled], whenever they stopped and set up their tents, Moses/I had them set up a tent outside the camp, far from the camp. I called it ‘the Sacred Tent where God and I talk together’. Everyone who wanted Yahweh to decide something for them would go out of the camp to the Sacred Tent.
Koro Musa nohero kawo Hema kendo gure oko mar Kambi mochwalore matin koluonge ni “Hemb Romo.” Ngʼato angʼata mane dwaro penjo Jehova Nyasaye wach ne dhi e Hemb Romo oko mar kambi.
8 Whenever Moses/I went out to the Sacred Tent, all the people would stand at the entrances of their tents and watch him/me until he/I had entered the Sacred Tent.
Kinde moro amora mane Musa odhi oko e Hema to ji duto ne wuok kendo chungʼ e dhoutgi mag hema ka gingʼiyo Musa nyaka chop odonji.
9 When Moses/I entered the Sacred Tent, the tall cloud that looked like a fire would come down and stay at the entrance of the Sacred Tent, and then Yahweh would talk with Moses/me.
Kane Musa dhi e Hema to bor polo ne lor piny kendo siko e dhoot ka Jehova Nyasaye wuoyo gi Musa.
10 When the people saw the tall cloud at the entrance of the Sacred Tent, they would all prostrate themselves on the ground and worship Yahweh.
Kinde mane oganda oneno bor polono kochungʼ e dho Hema gin bende negichungʼ mi gilam ka ngʼato ka ngʼato nitie e dho Hembe.
11 Yahweh would speak to Moses/me directly, like someone speaks to his friend. Then Moses/I would return to the camp. But his/my young helper, Joshua, the son of Nun, stayed in the Sacred Tent.
Jehova Nyasaye ne wuoyo gi Musa wangʼ gi wangʼ mana ka ngʼato ma wuoyo gi osiepne. Bangʼ mano Musa noduogo e kambi, to Joshua wuod Nun, ma en wuowi mane konye nodongʼ mana e Hema.
12 Moses/I said to Yahweh, “It is true that you have told me, ‘Lead the people to the land [that I will show you],’ and you have said that you know me well and that you are pleased with me, but you have not told me whom you will send with me!
Musa nowacho ne Jehova Nyasaye niya, “Isebedo ka iwachona ni, ‘Telne jogi,’ to pok imiya ngʼeyo ngʼatno ma ibiro oro koda. Isewacho niya, ‘Angʼeyi gi nyingi kendo amor kodi.’
13 So now, if you are truly pleased with me, I ask you, tell me the things that you intend/plan to do, in order that I will know you [better] and continue to please you. Also, do not forget that the [Israeli] people are the people whom you chose to belong to you.”
Ka imor koda to puonja yoreni mondo angʼeyi kendo mondo asik ka amori. Par ni ogandani gin jogi.”
14 Yahweh replied, “I will go with you, and I will give you inner peace.”
Jehova Nyasaye nodwoke niya, “An awuon abiro dhi kodi kendo kwe mara nobed kodi.”
15 Moses/I replied, “If you do not go with me, do not force us to leave this place.
Eka Musa nowacho niya, “Ka in iwuon ok idhi kodwa, to kik igolwa ka.
16 The only way that [other] people will know that you are pleased with me and with your people is if you go with us [RHQ]! (If you go with us, [that will show that] we are different from all the other people on the earth./If you do not go with us, what will show that we are different from all the other people on the earth?)” [RHQ]
Ere kaka ngʼato dingʼe ni imor koda kaachiel gi jogigi makmana ka idhi kodwa? Koso en angʼo ma dipoga gi jogigi kod ogendini mamoko mantie e piny?”
17 Yahweh replied to Moses/me, “What you have asked is exactly what I will do, because I know you well and I am pleased with you.”
Eka Jehova Nyasaye nowacho ne Musa niya, “Abiro timo mana gino ma isekwayo nimar amor kodi kendo angʼeyi gi nyingi.”
18 Then Moses/I said, “Please let me see your glorious presence!”
Eka Musa nowachone niya, “Koro nyisa duongʼni.”
19 Yahweh replied, “I will let you see how great and glorious I am, and I will tell you clearly that my name is Yahweh. I will act very kindly and be merciful to all those whom I choose.
Kendo Jehova Nyasaye nowachone niya, “Abiro miyo duongʼna duto kadho e nyimi kendo abiro hulo nyinga ma en Jehova Nyasaye e nyimi. Anakech ngʼama adwaro kecho kendo anangʼwon-ne ngʼama adwaro ngʼwonone.”
20 But you are not allowed to see my face, because anyone who sees my face will (die/not continue to stay alive).
Nowacho bende niya “Ok inyal neno wangʼa, nimar onge ngʼama nyalo nena mi dok mangima.”
21 [But look]! Here is a place close to me where you can stand on a [large] rock.
Eka Jehova Nyasaye nowacho niya, “Nitie wi lwanda moro buta ka ma inyalo chungʼie.
22 When my glorious presence comes past you, I will put you in a large crevice/opening in the rock, and I will cover your face with my hand until I have passed by.
Ka duongʼna kadho to abiro pandi e rogo mar lwanda kendo abiro umi gi lweta nyaka chop akadhi.
23 Then I will take my hand away, and you will see my back, but you will not see my face.”
Eka abiro golo lweta kuomi mi inine mana ngʼeya, to wangʼa to ok nine.”
