Leviticus 18
1 Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,
Jehova Nyasaye nowacho ne Musa niya:
2 “Speak to the people of Israel and say to them, 'I am Yahweh your God.
“Wuo gi jo-Israel kendo iwachnegi ni, ‘An e Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu.
3 You must not do the things that the people do in Egypt, where you lived previously. You must not do the things that the people do in Canaan, the land to which I am taking you. Do not follow their customs.
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 laws are what you must do, and my commandments are what you must keep, so that you walk in them, because I am Yahweh your God.
Nyaka urit chikena kendo luwuru yorena, nikech an Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu.
5 Therefore you must keep my decrees and my laws. If a person obeys them, he will live because of them. I am Yahweh.
Rituru yorena kod chikena, nimar ngʼat moluwogi nobed mangima kuomgi. An e Jehova Nyasaye.
6 No one must sleep with any close relative to uncover his nakedness. I am Yahweh.
“‘Kik ngʼato terre gi dhako moluongo ni watne. An e Jehova Nyasaye.
7 Do not dishonor your father by sleeping with your mother. She is your mother! You must not dishonor her.
“‘Kik ikuod wi wuonu kuom terruok gi chiege, nikech en minu.
8 Do not sleep with any of your father's wives; you must not dishonor your father like that.
“‘Kik iterri gi chi wuonu, nikech kitimo kamano to ikelone wuonu wichkuot.
9 Do not sleep with any sister of yours, whether she is the daughter of your father or the daughter of your mother, whether she was raised at your home or distant from you. You must not sleep with your sisters.
“‘Kik iterri gi nyaminu mahie, kata nyameru maka wuonu machielo kata maka minu machielo, bedni onywole e dala kae, kata kamoro machielo.
10 Do not sleep with your son's daughter or with your daughter's daughter. That would be your own shame.
“‘Kik iterri gi nyakwari maka wuodi kata maka nyari, nikech kitimo kamano to ikelo wichkuot ni in iwuon.
11 Do not sleep with your father's wife's daughter, who was born of your father. She is your sister, and you must not sleep with her.
“‘Kik iterri gi nyaminu moa e ot machielo, nikech en nyaminu.
12 Do not sleep with your father's sister. She is a close relative to your father.
“‘Kik iterri gi nyamin wuonu nikech en wayu.
13 Do not sleep with your mother's sister. She is a close relative to your mother.
“‘Kik iterri gi nyamin mamau nikech en bende en mamau.
14 Do not dishonor the brother of your father by sleeping with his wife. Do not go near her for that purpose; she is your aunt.
“‘Kik igomb terori gi chi owadgi wuonu nikech en minu, kendo mano kelo wichkuot ne wuonuno.
15 Do not sleep with your daughter-in-law. She is your son's wife; do not sleep with her.
“‘Kik iterri gi chi wuodi nikech en maru, ok oyieni mondo itim kamano.
16 Do not sleep with your brother's wife; do not dishonor him in this way.
“‘Kik iterri gi chi owadu nikech mano nyalo kelo wichkuot ne owaduno.
17 Do not sleep with a woman and her daughter, or with her son's daughter or her daughter's daughter. They are close relatives to her, and sleeping with them would be wicked.
“‘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 You must not marry your wife's sister as a second wife and sleep with her while your first wife is alive.
“‘Kik ikend nyamin chiegi mondo obed nyieke ma iriwri kode ka nyamin pod ngima.
19 Do not sleep with a woman during her menstruation. She is unclean during that time.
“‘Kik iterri gi dhako manie kindene mar neno malo.
20 Do not sleep with your neighbor's wife and defile yourself with her in this way.
“‘Kik iterri gi chi ngʼama udakgo mokiewo, dipo ka omiyo ibedo mogak.
21 You must not give any of your children to put them into the fire, so that you sacrifice them to Molech, because you must not profane the name of your God. I am Yahweh.
“‘Kik ichiw nyathini moro amora ni nyasaye manono miluongo ni Molek, nimar ok onego iketh nying Nyasaye. An e Jehova Nyasaye.
22 Do not sleep with other men as with a woman. This would be wicked.
“‘Kik iterri gi dichwo wadu nikech mano en tim makwero.
23 Do not sleep with any animal and defile yourself with it. No woman must consider sleeping with any animal. This would be perversion.
“‘Kik iterri gi chiayo nikech mano miyo ibedo mogak. Dhako bende kik yie mondo chiayo oterre kode, nikech mano en gima kwero.
24 Do not defile yourselves in any of these ways, for in all these ways the nations are defiled, the nations that I will drive out from before you.
“‘Kik udwanyru kutimo timbe ma kamago nikech timbego ema ogendini mabiro riembo e nyimu ne timo.
25 The land became defiled, so I punished their sin, and the land vomited out its inhabitants.
Kata mana piny bende nobedo mogak, omiyo ne akumogi nikech richo mag-gi, kendo piny nongʼogo joma nodakie iye.
26 You, therefore, must keep my commandments and decrees, and you must not do any of these detestable things, neither the native-born Israelite nor the foreigner who lives among you.
To nyaka urit yorena kod chikena. Onge ngʼato kuomu manotim timbe makwerogo kata obed ja-Israel kata jadak e dieru,
27 For this is the wickedness that the people in the land have committed, those who lived here before you, and now the land is defiled.
nikech magi e timbe ma joma nodak e pinyni kapok ubiro notimo kendo negiketho pinyni.
28 Therefore be careful so that the land does not vomit you up also after you have defiled it, as it vomited out the people who were before you.
To ka udwanyo pinyno, to ngʼeuru ni onyalo ngʼogou oko mar oganda mane okwongonu dake kane gidwanye.
29 Whoever does any of these detestable things, the persons who do such things will be cut off from among their people.
“‘Jogo duto matim makwerogo noyud e ngimagi, ginto nyaka golgi oko ei ogandagi.
30 Therefore you must keep my command not to practice any of these detestable customs which were practiced here before you, so that you do not defile yourselves by them. I am Yahweh 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.’”
