Leviticus 19
1 Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,
Jehova Nyasaye nowacho ne Musa niya,
2 “Speak to all the assembly of the people of Israel and say to them, 'You must be holy, for I Yahweh your God am holy.
“Wuo gi kanyakla mar Israel duto kendo inyisgi ni: ‘Beduru maler nikech an Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu aler.
3 Everyone must respect his mother and his father, and you must keep my Sabbaths. I am Yahweh your God.
“‘Ngʼato ka ngʼato kuomu nyaka luor min gi wuon kendo nyaka urit Sabato maga. An e Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu.
4 Do not turn to worthless idols, nor make for yourselves gods out of metal. I am Yahweh your God.
“‘Kik uluw bangʼ nyiseche manono, kendo kik ubed gi nyiseche mothedhi mag nyinyo. An e Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu.
5 When you offer a sacrifice of fellowship offerings to Yahweh, you must offer it that you may be accepted.
“‘Ka uchiwo misango mar lalruok ne Jehova Nyasaye, to timeuru e yo mowinjore ma Jehova Nyasaye oyiego.
6 It must be eaten the same day you offer it, or on the next day. If anything remains until the third day, it must be burned up with fire.
Misangono ibiro chame e odiechiengno muchiwee kata kinyne, to ringʼo mane odongʼ nyaka chiengʼ mar adek nyaka wangʼ e mach.
7 If it is eaten at all on the third day, it is unclean meat; it must not be accepted,
Ka lemo moro amora kuom ringʼoni ocham chiengʼ mar adek, to Jehova Nyasaye ok noyie kodu nikech en gima kwero.
8 and everyone who eats it must carry his own guilt because he has defiled what is holy to Yahweh, and that person must be cut off from his people.
Ngʼato angʼata manocham ringʼono nokwan ka jaketho nikech osedwanyo kama ler mar Jehova Nyasaye, kendo ngʼatno nyaka ngʼad kare oko kuom ogandane.
9 When you reap the harvest of your land, you must not completely reap the corners of your field, neither will you gather all the produce of your harvest.
“‘Ka ukayo cham manie puotheu, to kik ugol cham duto nyaka manie giko puodho, kata kik uhul nyaka cham modongʼ.
10 You must not gather every grape from your vineyard, nor gather the grapes that have fallen on the ground in your vineyard. You must leave them for the poor and for the foreigner. I am Yahweh your God.
Kupono olembeu mag mzabibu, to kik upon-gi duto, bende mago molwar piny kik ukwany. Mago weuru ni joma odhier kod jodak manie dieru. An e Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu.
11 Do not steal. Do not lie. Do not deceive each other.
“‘Kik ikwal. “‘Kik iriambi. “‘Kik iwuond nyawadu.
12 Do not swear by my name falsely and profane the name of your God. I am Yahweh.
“‘Kik ikwongʼri gi miriambo ni ngʼato gi nyinga nimar kitimo kamano to ichayo Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu. An e Jehova Nyasaye.
13 Do not oppress your neighbor or rob him. The wages of a hired servant must not stay with you all night until the morning.
“‘Kik ima wadu e yor wuond kata kik imaye gire. “‘Kik itamri chulo ngʼato kuom tich motiyoni kendo nyaka ichule mana godiechiengno.
14 Do not curse the deaf or put a stumbling block before the blind. Instead, you must fear your God. I am Yahweh.
“‘Kik ikwongʼ ngʼama ite odino, kata kik iket gimoro e nyim muofu monyalo chwanyoree, luoruru Nyasachu. An e Jehova Nyasaye.
15 Do not cause judgment to be false. You must not show favoritism to someone because he is poor, and you must not show favoritism to someone because he is important. Instead, judge your neighbor righteously.
“‘Kik iketh buch ngʼato, to ngʼad bura kare ma kik idogne jachan kata luoro wangʼ ngʼama duongʼ, to ngʼadne wadu bura makare kichungʼ e adiera.
16 Do not walk around spreading slander among your people, but seek to protect your neighbor's life. I am Yahweh.
“‘Kik iketh nying jowadu koni gi koni e yor kuoth, kendo kik ihangne jowadu wach ma ok nikare. An e Jehova Nyasaye.
17 Do not hate your brother in your heart. You must honestly rebuke your neighbor so as not to share in sin because of him.
“‘Kik ibwon owadu gi chunyi. Nyis wadu kethone e wangʼe, mondo kik iriwri kode e richone.
18 Do not take vengeance or hold any grudge against any of your people, but instead love your neighbor as yourself. I am Yahweh.
“‘Kik idwar chulo kuor, kendo kik ibed ngʼama mon gi jowadgi, to her wadu kaka iherori iwuon. An e Jehova Nyasaye.
19 You must keep my commands. Do not try to breed your animals with different kinds of other animals. Do not mix two different kinds of seeds when planting your field. Do not wear clothing made of two kinds of material mixed together.
“‘Rituru yorena. “‘Kik uwe jamni mopogore opogore luwre ma nywol nyithindo. “‘Kik uriw kodhi e puodho achiel, kendo kik urwak nanga motwangʼ gi usi ariyo mopogore opogore.
20 Whoever sleeps with a slave girl who is promised to a husband, but who has not been ransomed or given her freedom, they must be punished. They must not be put to death because she was not free.
“‘Ka ngʼato oterore gi misumba ma nyako mapok okendi mosewinjore gi ngʼama onego kende, kata mapok omi thuolo mar dhi, to wachno nyaka none maber. Kik neg nyakono gi ngʼat moterore kodeno nikech pod en misumba.
21 A man must bring his guilt offering to Yahweh to the entrance to the tent of meeting—a ram as a guilt offering.
Ngʼat motimo kode tim makamanono nyaka kel im e nyim Jehova Nyasaye e dho Hemb Romo mondo timgo misango mar pwodhruok e ketho.
22 Then the priest will make atonement for him with the ram for the guilt offering before Yahweh, for the sin that he has committed. Then the sin which he has committed will be forgiven.
Jadolo notim misango mar golo richo e nyim Jehova Nyasaye gi imno kuom pwodho ngʼatno e kethone, eka richo mosetimo nowene.
23 When you come into the land and have planted all kinds of trees for food, then you must regard the fruit they produce as forbidden to be eaten. The fruit must be forbidden to you for three years. It must not be eaten.
“‘Ka udonjo e pinyno kendo upidho kit yiend olemo moro amora to ukwan olembene ka gik makwero. Kuom higni adek kik umul olembego kendo kik uchamgi.
24 But in the fourth year all the fruit will be holy, an offering of praise to Yahweh.
E higa mar angʼwen to olembege duto nobed maler, ma en chiwo mar pak ni Jehova Nyasaye.
25 In the fifth you may eat the fruit, having waited so that the trees might produce more. I am Yahweh your God.
To e higa mar abich, unyalo chamo olembege. Kuom mano keyo magu nomedre. An e Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu.
26 Do not eat any meat with blood still in it. Do not consult spirits about the future, and do not seek to control others by supernatural powers.
“‘Kik ucham ringʼo motimo remo. “‘Kik ukor wach kata kik ubed ajuoke mag nyakalondo.
27 You will not round off the corners of the hair on the sides of your head or shave off the edge of your beard.
“‘Kik utit yie wiu kata kik utit yie tiku.
28 Do not cut your body for the dead or put tattoo marks on your body. I am Yahweh.
“‘Kik usar dendu kuywago ngʼama otho, kendo kik usar kido moro amora e dendu. An e Jehova Nyasaye.
29 Do not disgrace your daughter by making her a prostitute, or the nation will fall to prostitution and the land will become full of wickedness.
“‘Kik utime timbe manyalo miyo nyiu bed jochode, nikech mano nyalo kethonu piny makel richo mangʼeny.
30 You must keep my Sabbaths and honor the sanctuary of my tabernacle. I am Yahweh.
“‘Rituru Sabato maga kendo kama ler mar lemo mara nyaka umi luor mowinjore. An e Jehova Nyasaye.
31 Do not turn to those who talk with the dead or with spirits. Do not seek them out, or they will defile you. I am Yahweh your God.
“‘Kik udhi upenj wach kuom jo-nyakalondo kata kuom ajuoke mamoko, nikech timo kamano biro miyo ubedo mogak. An e Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu.
32 You must rise before the gray-headed person and honor the presence of an old man. You must fear your God. I am Yahweh.
“‘Nyaka ichiw luor kichungone jaduongʼ ma wiye oti lwar kendo uluor Nyasachu. An e Jehova Nyasaye.
33 If a foreigner lives among you in your land, you must not do him any wrong.
“‘Ka japiny moro odak e dieru, to kik usande.
34 The foreigner who lives with you must be to you like the native-born Israelite who lives among you, and you must love him as yourself, because you were foreigners in the land of Egypt. I am Yahweh your God.
Japiny moro modak e dieruno nyaka udag kode mana kaka wuodu. Hereuru mana kaka uheroru uwegi nikech ne un jodak e piny Misri. An Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu.
35 Do not use false measures when measuring length, weight, or quantity.
“‘Kik uti gi rapim ma ok nikare ka upimo bor kata pek mar gimoro kata kupimo ngʼeny mare.
36 You must use just scales, just weights, a just ephah, and a just hin. I am Yahweh your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt.
Tiuru gi rapim ma ok riambi kendo mapimo gimoro makare. An e Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu mane ogolou e piny Misri.
37 You must obey all my decrees and all my laws, and do them. I am Yahweh.'”
“‘Rituru yorena duto kod chikena kendo uluwgi. An e Jehova Nyasaye.’”
