< Deuteronomy 25 >

1 If there is a controversy between men, and they come to judgement and the judges judge them, then they shall justify the righteous and condemn the wicked.
Ka ji ariyo larore e wach moro, to nyaka giter wachno e od ngʼado bura kendo jongʼad bura nongʼadnegi bura kare, ka giweyo ngʼat makare thuolo to ngʼat man giketho ikumo.
2 It shall be, if the wicked man is worthy to be beaten, that the judge shall cause him to lie down and to be beaten before his face, according to his wickedness, by number.
Ka ngʼat moyud giketho onego chwadi, to jangʼad bura nowachne mondo onind piny ochwade maromre gi kethoneno,
3 He may sentence him to no more than forty stripes. He shall not give more, lest if he should give more and beat him more than that many stripes, then your brother will be degraded in your sight.
to ok onego chwade del moloyo piero angʼwen. Ka ochwade moloyo mano, to wadu diyud wichkuot e wangʼe.
4 You shall not muzzle the ox when he treads out the grain.
Kik utwe dho dhiangʼ kaywayo lodi ma idinogo cham.
5 If brothers dwell together, and one of them dies and has no son, the wife of the dead shall not be married outside to a stranger. Her husband’s brother shall go in to her, and take her as his wife, and perform the duty of a husband’s brother to her.
Ka owete odak kanyakla kae to moro otho kaonge wuowi, to ngʼat moro nono ma ok ja-dalano ok onego kend chiegeno. Owadgi chwore hie ema mondo okawe okende mondo otimne gik moko duto ma yuoro onego otimne chi owadgi.
6 It shall be that the firstborn whom she bears shall succeed in the name of his brother who is dead, that his name not be blotted out of Israel.
Nyathi ma wuowi mokwong nywolo ema notingʼ kar nying wuon mare mane otho mondo kik nyinge lal nono e dier oganda jo-Israel.
7 If the man doesn’t want to take his brother’s wife, then his brother’s wife shall go up to the gate to the elders, and say, “My husband’s brother refuses to raise up to his brother a name in Israel. He will not perform the duty of a husband’s brother to me.”
To ka ngʼato ok dwar kendo chi owadgi ma chwore othono, to dhakono mondo odhi ir jodongo e dhoranga dala kendo owach niya, “Owadgi chwora odagi ok onyal tingʼo kar owadgi ei Israel, odagi timona gima yuoro onego timne chi owadgi.”
8 Then the elders of his city shall call him, and speak to him. If he stands and says, “I don’t want to take her,”
Eka jodong dala noluong ngʼatno mondo owuo kode. To kapod odagi kowacho niya, “Ok adwar kende,”
9 then his brother’s wife shall come to him in the presence of the elders, and loose his sandal from off his foot, and spit in his face. She shall answer and say, “So shall it be done to the man who does not build up his brother’s house.”
chi owadgino nodhi ire e nyim jodongo mi olony wuochene achiel e tiende kendo ongʼudh olawo e wangʼe kowachone niya, “Ma e gima itimo ne ngʼat modagi rito dala owadgi mondo ochungi.”
10 His name shall be called in Israel, “The house of him who had his sandal removed.”
Ngʼatno kothgi nongʼere e Israel kaka koth joma ne olony wuochegi.
11 When men strive against each other, and the wife of one draws near to deliver her husband out of the hand of him who strikes him, and puts out her hand, and grabs him by his private parts,
Ka ji ariyo dhawo kae to chi ngʼat achiel kuomgi obiro konyo chwore, mi omake gi duongʼne,
12 then you shall cut off her hand. Your eye shall have no pity.
to dhakono nyaka ngʼad lwete, kendo kik timne ngʼwono.
13 You shall not have in your bag diverse weights, one heavy and one light.
Kik ubed gi rapim ariyo e okapu magu mamoro pek to moro yot.
14 You shall not have in your house diverse measures, one large and one small.
Bende kik ubed gi rapim ariyo e uteu mag pimo, ma moro duongʼ to moro tin.
15 You shall have a perfect and just weight. You shall have a perfect and just measure, that your days may be long in the land which the LORD your God gives you.
Nyaka ubed gi gige pimo mowinjore kendo makare mondo udagi amingʼa e piny ma Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu miyou.
16 For all who do such things, all who do unrighteously, are an abomination to the LORD your God.
Nimar Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu mon gi joma timo gik ma kamago; ngʼat matimo gi mibadhi.
17 Remember what Amalek did to you by the way as you came out of Egypt,
Paruru gima ne jo-Amalek otimonu kane uwuok Misri.
18 how he met you by the way, and struck the rearmost of you, all who were feeble behind you, when you were faint and weary; and he didn’t fear God.
Kane uol kendo tekou norumo, negimonjou e yo ma ginego joma ne wuoth oolo; kendo ne ok giluoro Nyasaye.
19 Therefore it shall be, when the LORD your God has given you rest from all your enemies all around, in the land which the LORD your God gives you for an inheritance to possess it, that you shall blot out the memory of Amalek from under the sky. You shall not forget.
Emomiyo ka Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu osemiyou kwe e piny mobiro miyou mondo ukaw kaka girkeni, to kik wiu wil ma ok utieko jo-Amalek duto.
