Judges 18
1 In tho daies was no kyng in Israel; and the lynage of Dan souyte possessioun to it silf, to dwelle ther ynne; for `til to that dai it hadde not take eritage among other lynagis.
Ndalogo jo-Israel ne onge gi ruoth. Kendo e ndalogo joka Dan ne manyo kargi giwegi ma ginyalo dakie, nikech ne pod ok giyudo kar dak e dhout jo-Israel.
2 Therfor the sones of Dan senten fyue the strongeste men of her generacioun and meynee fro Saraa and Escahol, that thei schulden aspie the lond, and biholde diligentli. And thei seiden to hem, Go ye, and biholde the lond. And whanne thei goynge hadden come in to the hil of Effraym, and hadden entrid in to the hows of Mycha, thei restiden there.
Omiyo jo-Dan nooro jolweny abich moa Zora gi Eshtaol mondo onon pinyno kendo ongʼe kaka pinyno chalo. Jogi nochungʼne dhout gigo duto. Negiwachonegi niya, “Dhiuru mondo unon pinyno.” Jogo nodonjo e piny gode mag Efraim kendo negidhi e od Mika, kama ne ginindoe.
3 And thei knewen the voys of the yong wexynge dekene; and thei restiden in `the yn of hym, and seiden to hym, Who brouyte thee hidur? What doist thou here? For what cause woldist thou come hidur?
Kane gichopo machiegni gi od Mika, ne giwinjo dwond ja-Lawi moro ma wuowi; omiyo negidonjo kanyo mi gipenje niya, “Ngʼama nokeli ka? Angʼo ma itimo ka? Angʼo ma omiyo in ka?”
4 Which answeride `to hem, Mychas yaf to me these and these thingis, and hiride me for meede, that Y be preest to hym.
Nonyisogi gima Mika nosetimone, kendo owacho niya, “Osekawa kaka jatije kendo an jadolo mare.”
5 Forsothe thei preieden hym, that he schulde counsele the Lord, and thei myyten wite, whether thei yeden in weie of prosperite, and the thing schulde haue effect.
Eka negiwachone niya, “Kiyie to penjnwa Nyasaye ka wuodhwa dhi bedo maber.”
6 Which answeride to hem, Go ye with pees, the Lord biholdith youre weie, and the iourney whidur ye goon.
Jadolo nodwokogi niya, “Dhiuru gi kwe. Wuodhu osepwodhi gi Jehova Nyasaye.”
7 Therfor the fyue men yeden, and camen to Lachys; and thei siyen the puple dwellynge ther ynne with outen ony drede, bi the custom of Sidonyis, sikur and resteful, for no man outirli ayenstood hem, and `of grete richessis, and fer fro Sidon, and departid fro alle men.
Omiyo ji abichgo noa mi gichopo Laish, kama negineno ka ji odak kanyo gi kwe, mana kaka jo-Sidon, maonge paro moro amora kata kibaji kendo negidak gi kwe. To nikech pinygi ne ok ochando gimoro amora, ne gin joma omewo. Bende, negidak mochwolore gi jo-Sidon kendo ne gionge gi osiep gi ngʼato angʼata.
8 And thei turneden ayen to her britheren in Saraa and Escahol; and thei answeriden to `britheren axynge what thei hadden do,
Kane gidwogo Zora kod Eshtaol, owetegi nopenjogi niya, “Ne uyudo gik moko chalo nade kuno?”
9 Rise ye, and stie we to hem, for we siyen the lond ful riche and plenteuous; nyle ye be necgligent, nil ye ceesse, go we, and haue it in possessioun;
Negidwokogi niya, “Biuru mondo wamonjgi! Waseneno ka piny cha ber ahinya. Donge udhi timo gimoro? Kik udeki ma ok udhi kuno kendo ukaw pinyno.
10 no trauel schal be; we schulen entre to sikir men, in to a largeste cuntrey; and the Lord schal bitake to vs a place, wher ynne is not pouert of ony thing of tho that ben brouyt forth in erthe.
Ka uchopo kuno, to unuyud jogo ma ok oikore ne lweny kendo gi piny malach ma Nyasaye oseketo e lwetu, piny maonge gima ochando kendo man-gi gik moko duto.”
11 Therfor sixe hundrid men gird with armeris of batel yeden forth `of the kynrede of Dan, that is, fro Saraa and Escahol.
Eka ji mia auchiel moa e dhood joka Dan, mane oikore ne lweny, nowuok oa Zora kod Eshtaol.
12 And thei stieden, and dwelliden in Cariathiarym of Juda, which place took fro that tyme the name of Castels of Dan, and is bihyndis the bak of Cariathiarym.
Kane pod gidhi negiloso kambi but Kiriath Jearim manie piny Juda. Mano ema omiyo piny mantiere yo podho chiengʼ mar Kiriath Jearim pod iluongo ni Mahane Dan nyaka chil kawuono.
13 Fro thennus thei passiden in to the hil of Effraym; and whanne thei hadden come to the hows of Mychas, the fyue men,
Kane gia kanyo negidhi e piny gode mag Efraim ma gichopo e od Mika.
14 that weren sent bifore to biholde the lond of Lachis, seiden to her other britheren, Ye knowen, that ephod, and theraphyn, and a grauun ymage and yotun is in these housis; se ye what plesith you.
Eka chwo abich mane obiro nono piny Laish nowachone owetegi niya, “Bende ungʼeyo ni achiel kuom udigi nigi law mayom mar dolo miluongo ni efod, nyiseche moko manono, kod kido mobaw gi fedha mag nyiseche manono? Koro ungʼeyo gima onego utim.”
15 And whanne thei hadden bowid a litil, thei entriden in to the hows of the yong dekene, that was in the hows of Mychas, and thei gretten hym with pesible wordis.
Omiyo negidhi kanyo ma gidonjo e od ja-Lawi ma wuowi mane ni ka Mika kendo gimose.
16 Forsothe sixe hundrid men stoden bifore the dore, so as thei weren armed. And thei, that entriden in to the `hows of the yong man, enforsiden to take awey the grauun ymage, and the ephod, and theraphin, and the yotun ymage; and the preest stood bifore the dore,
Jolweny mia auchiel ma jo-Dan moikore ne lweny nochungʼ e dhorangach.
17 while sixe hundrid strongeste men abideden not fer.
Ji abich mane osetimo nonro matut mar pinyno nodonjo ei ot mokawo kido mopa machalo gi law mayom mar dolo miluongo ni efod, gi nyiseche manono mag udi, kod mago mopa, ka jadolo kod jolweny mia auchiel to ochungʼ e dhorangach.
18 Therfor thei that entriden token the grauun ymage, ephod, and idols, and the yotun ymage; to whiche the preest seide, What doen ye?
Kane jogi odhi e od Mika ma gikawo kido mopa, law mayom mar dolo miluongo ni efod, nyiseche manono mag udi kod nyiseche mopa, jadolo nowachonegi niya, “Angʼo mutimono?”
19 To whom thei answeriden, Be thou stille, and putte the fyngur on thi mouth, and come with vs, that we haue thee fadir and preest. What is betere to thee, that thou be preest in the hows of o man, whether in o lynage and meynee in Israel?
Negidwoke niya, “Lingʼ thi! Kik iwach gimoro amora. Dhi kodwa, kendo ibed wuonwa kendo jadolowa. Donge ber ka itiyone anywola kod dhoot Israel kaka jadolo moloyo mana tiyone jood ngʼato achiel?”
20 And whanne he hadde herd this, he assentide to `the wordis of hem, and he took the ephod, and ydols, and the grauun ymage, and yede forth with hem.
Bangʼe jadolo nobedo gi mor. Nokawo law mayom mar dolo miluongo ni efod, nyiseche manono mag udi kod kido mopa kendo nodhi gi jogo.
21 And whanne thei yeden, and hadden maad the litle children, and werk beestis, and al thing that was preciouse, to go bifor hem;
Negichako wuoth ma gia ka nyithindgi matindo gi jambgi kod gigegi otelo e nyimgi.
22 and whanne thei weren now fer fro `the hows of Mychas, men that dwelliden in the housis of Mychas, crieden togidere, and sueden,
Kane gisedhi mochwolore gi od Mika, jogo mane odak machiegni gi Mika noluong kanyakla kendo negilawo jo-Dan.
23 and bigunnun to crye `aftir the bak. Whiche whanne thei hadden biholde, seiden to Mychas, What wolt thou to thee? whi criest thou?
Kane gigoyo koko bangʼ-gi, jo-Dan nolokore kendo owacho ne Mika niya, “En angʼo marach kodi momiyo ne ioro wach ne jowu mondo oked kodwa?”
24 Which answeride, Ye han take awey my goddis whiche Y made to me, and the preest, and alle thingis whiche Y haue; and ye seien, What is to thee?
Nodwoko niya, “Ne ukawo nyiseche mane aloso, kod jadolo matiyona kendo mi uwuok. En angʼo kendo makoro an-go? Ere kaka unyalo penjo, ‘En angʼo marach kodi?’”
25 And the sones of Dan seiden to hym, Be war, lest thou speke more to vs, and men styrid in soule come to thee, and thou perische with al thin hows.
Jo-Dan nodwoko niya, “We dwokori kodwa, ka ok kamano, to joma igi wangʼ moingo tekregi biro monji, bangʼe in kod joodi ibiro negi.”
26 And so thei yeden forth in the iourney bigunnun. Forsothe Mychas siy, that thei weren strongere than he, and turnede ayen in to his hows.
Omiyo jo-Dan nodhi nyime gi wuoth, kendo ka Mika noneno ka tekregi pekne, nowuok mi odok dalane.
27 Forsothe sixe hundrid men token the preest, and the thingis whiche we biforseiden, and camen in to Lachis to the puple restynge and sikur; and thei smytiden hem bi the scharpnesse of swerd, and bitoken the citee to brennyng,
Bangʼe negikawo gigo mane Mika oseloso, kod jadolo mare, kendo negidhi Laish, mondo giked gi jogo man-gi kwe kendo maonge gi ikruok moro amora mar kedo. Negimonjogi gi lingangla kendo negiwangʼo dala maduongʼno gi mach.
28 while no man outirli yaf help, for thei dwelliden fer fro Sydon, and hadden not ony thing of felouschipe and cause with ony of men. Forsothe the citee was set in the cuntrei of Roob; which citee thei bildiden eft, and dwelliden ther ynne;
Onge ngʼama ne nyalo resogi nikech negidak mochwolore gi Sidon kendo ne onge watgi moro amora kanyo. Dala maduongʼno ne nitie e holo man but Beth Rehob. Jo-Dan nochako gero dala maduongʼno kendo negidak kanyo.
29 while the name of the citee was clepid Dan, bi the name of her fadir, whom Israel hadde gendrid, which citee was seid Lachis bifore.
Negichako kanyo ni Dan bangʼ kwargi Dan, mane wuod Israel; kata obedo ni dala maduongʼno ne iluongo chon ni Laish.
30 And `thei settiden there the grauun ymage, and Jonathas, sone of Jerson, sone of Moises, and `Jonathas sones, preestis, in the lynage of Dan, til in to the dai of her caitifte.
Joka Dan nochungo kido manono kanyo mondo gilam, kendo negiketo Jonathan wuod Gershom, ma wuod Musa, kod yawuote obedo jodolo ne dhood joka Dan nyaka ne ochopo kinde mane oter pinyno e twech.
31 And the idol of Mychas dwellide at hem, in al the tyme `in which the hows of God was in Silo. In tho daies was no kyng in Israel.
Negidhi nyime ka gitiyone nyiseche manono mane Mika oseloso, to kindegi duto od Nyasaye neni Shilo.
