Deuteronomy 16

1 “Kowos in oru Kufwen Alukela in malem Abib in akfulatye LEUM GOD lowos, mweyen sie fong ke malem Abib pa El tuh molikowosla liki facl Egypt.

Observe the month of Abib, and keep the Passover to Jehovah your God; for in the month of Abib Jehovah your God brought you forth out of Egypt by night.

2 Som nu ke acn se LEUM GOD El sulela kowos in alu we, ac uniya soko sheep, ku cow ingo tuh in mwe mongo ke Kufwen Alukela in akfulatye LEUM GOD lowos.

You shall sacrifice the Passover to Jehovah your God, of the flock and the herd, in the place which Jehovah shall choose, to cause his name to dwell there.

3 Ke kowos kang mongo se inge, nimet kang bread orekla ke mwe pulol. Ke len itkosr kowos fah kang bread ma wangin mwe pulol kac, oana ke kowos tuh oru pacl se kowos sulaklak illa liki Egypt. Kang bread se inge — ac fah pangpang bread in keok — tuh in lusen moul lowos kowos fah esam len se kowos ilme liki Egypt, facl in keok sac.

You shall eat no leavened bread with it. You shall eat unleavened bread with it seven days, even the bread of affliction; for you came forth out of the land of Egypt in haste: that you may remember the day when you came forth out of the land of Egypt all the days of your life.

4 Ke lusen len itkosr, wangin mwet in facl suwos uh fah oasr kutena mwe pulol in lohm sel. Ac ikwen kosro soko ma anwuki ke eku in len se meet, fah mongola ke fong sacna.

No yeast shall be seen with you in all your borders seven days; neither shall any of the flesh, which you sacrifice the first day at evening, remain all night until the morning.

5 “Kowos in tia oru kisa in Alukela lowos in kutena siti ma LEUM GOD lowos El asot nu suwos.

You may not sacrifice the Passover within any of your gates, which Jehovah your God gives you;

6 Acn se na ma LEUM GOD lowos El ac fah sulela tuh mwet uh in alu nu sel we, pa acn sefanna kowos fah oru kisa in Alukela we. Oru ke ekela, pacl se faht uh tili, mweyen pa inge pulan pacl se ke len se kowos tuh mukuiyak liki acn Egypt.

but at the place which Jehovah your God shall choose, to cause his name to dwell in, there you shall sacrifice the Passover at evening, at the going down of the sun, at the season that you came forth out of Egypt.

7 Akmolyela ikwa sac ac kang ke acn se na ma LEUM GOD El ac sulela kowos in alu nu sel we. Lotutang tok an kowos folokla nu yen suwos.

You shall roast and eat it in the place which Jehovah your God shall choose: and you shall turn in the morning, and go to your tents.

8 Ke len onkosr toko kowos fah mongo bread ma wangin mwe pulol kac, ac ke len se akitkosr, kowos tukeni in alu nu sin LEUM GOD lowos, ac tia oru kutena orekma.

Six days you shall eat unleavened bread. On the seventh day shall be a solemn assembly to Jehovah your God; you shall do no work.

9 “Oakma wik itkosr tukun pacl se kowos mutawauk kosrani wheat,

You shall count for yourselves seven weeks: from the time you begin to put the sickle to the standing grain you shall begin to number seven weeks.

10 na oru Kufwen Kosrani in akfulatye LEUM GOD lowos. Use nu yorol mwe kisa ke engan na lun kais sie mwet, fal nu ke lupan ma God El akinsewowoye kowos kac.

You shall keep the feast of weeks to Jehovah your God with a tribute of a freewill offering of your hand, which you shall give, according as Jehovah your God blesses you:

11 Kowos in arulana engan ye mutun LEUM GOD, wi tulik nutuwos, mwet kulansap lowos, ac mwet Levi, mwetsac, tulik mukaimtal, ac katinmas su muta in siti suwos an. Oru ma inge ke acn se na ma LEUM GOD El sulela kowos in alu nu sel we.

and you shall rejoice before Jehovah your God, you, and your son, and your daughter, and your male servant, and your female servant, and the Levite who is within your gates, and the foreigner, and the fatherless, and the widow, who are in the midst of you, in the place which Jehovah your God shall choose, to cause his name to dwell there.

12 Esamna in akos ma sap inge; nimet mulkunla lah kowos tuh mwet kohs in facl Egypt.

You shall remember that you were a bondservant in Egypt: and you shall observe and do these statutes.

13 “Tukun kowos sisla kulun wheat nukewa lowos, ac itungya grape nukewa nu ke wain, kowos in akfulatye Kufwen Iwen Aktuktuk ke lusen len itkosr.

You shall keep the feast of tents seven days, after that you have gathered in from your threshing floor and from your winepress:

14 Engankin kufwa se inge wi tulik nutuwos, mwet kulansap lowos, ac mwet Levi, mwetsac, tulik mukaimtal, ac katinmas su muta in siti suwos uh.

and you shall rejoice in your feast, you, and your son, and your daughter, and your male servant, and your female servant, and the Levite, and the foreigner, and the fatherless, and the widow, who are within your gates.

15 Akfulatye LEUM GOD lowos ke kowos oru kufwa se inge, ac oru ke len itkosr in acn se ma El sulela kowos in alu nu sel we. Kowos in arulana engan, mweyen LEUM GOD El akinsewowoye kosrani lowos ac orekma lowos.

You shall keep a feast to Jehovah your God seven days in the place which Jehovah shall choose; because Jehovah your God will bless you in all your increase, and in all the work of your hands, and you shall be altogether joyful.

16 “Mukul nukewa in mutunfacl suwos fah tuku in alu nu sin LEUM GOD pacl tolu ke yac se, ke acn in alu se ma solla tari: ke Kufwen Alukela, Kufwen Kosrani, ac Kufwen Iwen Aktuktuk. Kais sie mukul fah use sie mwe sang,

Three times in a year shall all your males appear before Jehovah your God in the place which he shall choose: in the feast of unleavened bread, and in the feast of weeks, and in the feast of tents; and they shall not appear before Jehovah empty:

17 fal nu ke lupan ma LEUM GOD lowos El akinsewowoyal kac.

every man shall give as he is able, according to the blessing of Jehovah your God which he has given you.

18 “Kowos sulela kutu mwet nununku ac mwet kol in siti nukewa ma LEUM GOD lowos El sot nu suwos. Mwet inge in nununku mwet ke suwohs ac tia wiwimwet.

You shall make judges and officers in all your gates, which Jehovah your God gives you, according to your tribes; and they shall judge the people with righteous judgment.

19 Elos in tia sesuwos ku fahkak srisri in nununku lalos uh; ac elos in tia eis molin eyeinse, mweyen molin eyeinse uh ku in aklosrye mutun mwet lalmwetmet ac mwet suwohs, pwanang elos orala nununku tia suwohs.

You shall not wrest justice: you shall not respect persons; neither shall you take a bribe; for a bribe does blind the eyes of the wise, and pervert the words of the righteous.

20 Kowos in oru ma fal ac suwohs pacl nukewa, tuh kowos fah ku in oakwuki in facl se su LEUM GOD lowos El sot nu suwos.

You shall follow that which is altogether just, that you may live, and inherit the land which Jehovah your God gives you.

21 “Pacl kowos oru sie loang nu sin LEUM GOD lowos, nimet filiya mwe akul sak ke god mutan Asherah in oan sisken loang uh.

You shall not plant for yourselves an Asherah of any kind of tree beside the altar of Jehovah your God, which you shall make for yourselves.

22 Ac nimet kowos tulokunak kutena sru eot in alu nu kac. LEUM GOD El srunga.

Neither shall you set yourself up a pillar; which Jehovah your God hates.
