< Exodus 19 >

1 In the third month after the children of Israel had gone out of the land of Egypt, on that same day they came into the wilderness of Sinai.
E dwe mar adek bangʼ ka jo-Israel nosewuok Misri, negichopo e thim Sinai e odiechiengʼno.
2 When they had departed from Rephidim, and had come to the wilderness of Sinai, they encamped in the wilderness; and there Israel encamped before the mountain.
Bangʼ kane gisewuok Refidim, negidonjo thim Sinai, kendo Israel nojot e nyim got e thimno.
3 Moses went up to God, and Yahweh called to him out of the mountain, saying, “This is what you shall tell the house of Jacob, and tell the children of Israel:
Eka Musa noidho got mondo odhi owuo gi Nyasaye kendo Jehova Nyasaye noluonge gi ewi got mowachone kama: “Ma e gima iwachne od Jakobo to gi jo-Israel.
4 ‘You have seen what I did to the Egyptians, and how I bore you on eagles’ wings, and brought you to myself.
‘Un uwegi useneno gima ne atimone piny Misri kendo kaka ne atingʼou mana kaka ongo tingʼo nyithinde mi akelou ira awuon.
5 Now therefore, if you will indeed obey my voice and keep my covenant, then you shall be my own possession from among all peoples; for all the earth is mine;
Koro, ka uwinja chuth mi urito singruokna, to kuom ogendini duto ubiro bedo mwanduna awuon. Kata obedo ni piny duto en mara,
6 and you shall be to me a kingdom of priests and a holy nation.’ These are the words which you shall speak to the children of Israel.”
un to ubiro bedona oganda mar jodolo kendo oganda maler.’ Magi e weche manyaka iwachne jo-Israel.”
7 Moses came and called for the elders of the people, and set before them all these words which Yahweh commanded him.
Kuom mano Musa nodok moluongo jodongo duto mag oganda mi oketo e nyimgi weche duto mane Jehova Nyasaye ochike mondo owachi.
8 All the people answered together, and said, “All that Yahweh has spoken we will do.” Moses reported the words of the people to Yahweh.
Oganda duto nodwoko kanyakla kawacho niya, “Wabiro timo gik moko duto ma Jehova Nyasaye ochiko.” Kuom mano Musa nodwoko wachgi ne Jehova Nyasaye.
9 Yahweh said to Moses, “Behold, I come to you in a thick cloud, that the people may hear when I speak with you, and may also believe you forever.” Moses told the words of the people to Yahweh.
Jehova Nyasaye nowacho ne Musa niya, “Abiro biro iru e boche polo mondo omi oganda owinj kaka awuoyo kodi kendo mano biro miyo giket genogi kuomi ndalo duto.” Eka Musa nonyiso Jehova Nyasaye gima oganda nowacho.
10 Yahweh said to Moses, “Go to the people, and sanctify them today and tomorrow, and let them wash their garments,
Kendo Jehova Nyasaye nowacho ne Musa niya, “Dhi ir oganda mondo ipwodhgi kawuono gi kiny. Ketgi giluok lepgi
11 and be ready for the third day; for on the third day Yahweh will come down in the sight of all the people on Mount Sinai.
mondo gibed moikore e odiechiengʼ mar adek, nimar chiengʼno Jehova Nyasaye biro lor ewi Got Sinai ka ji duto nene.
12 You shall set bounds to the people all around, saying, ‘Be careful that you don’t go up onto the mountain, or touch its border. Whoever touches the mountain shall be surely put to death.
Ket tongʼ ne oganda molworo got kendo nyisgi ni, ‘Beduru motangʼ mondo kik ngʼato idh got kata mulo tie got, nimar ngʼato angʼata mochopo e tiend godni to nyaka negi.
13 No hand shall touch him, but he shall surely be stoned or shot through; whether it is animal or man, he shall not live.’ When the trumpet sounds long, they shall come up to the mountain.”
Ngʼatno nyaka chiel gi kite, kata chwowe gi asere; to kik ngʼato angʼata ket lwete kuome. Bed ni en dhano kata le, ok noweye mondo obed mangima.’ To ji nyalo idho godno mana ka tungʼ oywak kuom thuolo malach.”
14 Moses went down from the mountain to the people, and sanctified the people; and they washed their clothes.
Bangʼ ka Musa noselor e got modhi ir oganda, nopwodhogi mine gilwoko lepgi.
15 He said to the people, “Be ready by the third day. Don’t have sexual relations with a woman.”
Eka nowacho ne oganda niya, “Ikreuru ne odiechiengʼ mar adek kendo kik ngʼato riwre gi chiege.”
16 On the third day, when it was morning, there were thunders and lightnings, and a thick cloud on the mountain, and the sound of an exceedingly loud trumpet; and all the people who were in the camp trembled.
Chiengʼ mar adek gokinyi, polo nomil kamor, ka boche polo okwako wi got kendo turumbete noywag matek, ma ji duto mane ni e kambi notetni.
17 Moses led the people out of the camp to meet God; and they stood at the lower part of the mountain.
Eka Musa notelo ne oganda kawuok e kambi mondo orom gi Nyasaye, kendo negichungʼ e tiend got.
18 All of Mount Sinai smoked, because Yahweh descended on it in fire; and its smoke ascended like the smoke of a furnace, and the whole mountain quaked greatly.
Iro noimo Got Sinai nikech Jehova Nyasaye nolor kanyo ei mach. Iro ne dhwolore kawuok ewi godno mana ka iro mawuok e kendo, mi got duto noyiengni,
19 When the sound of the trumpet grew louder and louder, Moses spoke, and God answered him by a voice.
kendo turumbete nomedo ywak matek. Eka Musa nowuoyo kendo Nyasaye nodwoke.
20 Yahweh came down on Mount Sinai, to the top of the mountain. Yahweh called Moses to the top of the mountain, and Moses went up.
Jehova Nyasaye nolor ewi Got Sinai mi oluongo Musa nyaka ewi godno. Omiyo Musa noidho e got
21 Yahweh said to Moses, “Go down, warn the people, lest they break through to Yahweh to gaze, and many of them perish.
mi Jehova Nyasaye nowachone niya, “Dhiyo kendo isiem ji mondo kik girire ni gidwaro neno Jehova Nyasaye nimar thothgi nyalo tho.
22 Let the priests also, who come near to Yahweh, sanctify themselves, lest Yahweh break out on them.”
Kata mana jodolo ma osudo ir Jehova Nyasaye nyaka pwodhre ka ok kamano to Jehova Nyasaye nomwomre kuomgi.”
23 Moses said to Yahweh, “The people can’t come up to Mount Sinai, for you warned us, saying, ‘Set bounds around the mountain, and sanctify it.’”
Musa nowacho ne Jehova Nyasaye niya, “Ji ok nyal biro ewi Got Sinai nimar in iwuon ema ne isiemowa ni mondo waket kiewo molworo got mondo owale obed maler.”
24 Yahweh said to him, “Go down! You shall bring Aaron up with you, but don’t let the priests and the people break through to come up to Yahweh, lest he break out against them.”
Jehova Nyasaye nodwoke niya, “Lor piny iom Harun ibigo ira. To jodolo gi ji kik rire mondo one Jehova Nyasaye, nono to abiro mwomora kuomgi.”
25 So Moses went down to the people, and told them.
Kuom mano Musa nolor piny ir ji monyisogi gik mane Jehova Nyasaye owachone.
