Kwan 32
1 Jo-Reuben gi jo-Gad, mane nigi kweth mag rombe kod dhok, noneno ni piny Jazer kod piny Gilead ne nigi lek maber mar pidho jamni.
Now the descendants of Reuben and of Gad had large numbers of livestock. When they saw the land of Jazer and Gilead, the land was a wonderful place for livestock.
2 Omiyo negibiro ir Musa gi Eliazar jadolo kod jotend oganda mar jo-Israel, mi giwachonegi niya,
So the descendants of Gad and Reuben came and spoke to Moses, to Eleazar the priest, and to the leaders of the community. They said,
3 Piny motingʼo Ataroth, Dibon, Jazer, Nimra, Heshbon, Eleale, Sebam, Nebo kod Beon
“This is a list of places we have surveyed: Ataroth, Dibon, Jazer, Nimrah, Heshbon, Elealeh, Sebam, Nebo, and Beon.
4 ma Jehova Nyasaye osekawo ka oganda mar jo-Israel neno en piny man-gi lek maber mar pidho jamni kendo ungʼeyo ni wan jotichu wan jopidh jamni.
These are the lands that Yahweh attacked before the community of Israel, and they are good places for livestock. We, your servants, have a lot of livestock.”
5 Negiwachonegi niya, “Ka uyie kodwa, to miwauru pinyni wasumbiniu obed marwa mondo kik wakadh wadhi loka Jordan.”
They said, “If we have found favor in your eyes, let this land be given to us, your servants, as a possession. Do not make us cross over the Jordan.”
6 Musa nowacho ne jo-Gad kod jo-Reuben niya, “Bende jou nyalo dhi e lweny ka un to udongʼ ka?
Moses replied to the descendants of Gad and Reuben, “Should your brothers go to war while you settle down here?
7 Angʼo momiyo unego chuny jo-Israel mondo kik dhi e piny ma Jehova Nyasaye osemiyogi?
Why discourage the hearts of the people of Israel from going over into the land that Yahweh has given them?
8 Ma e gima kwereu notimo kane aorogi kane wan Kadesh Barnea mondo gidhi ginon pinyno.
Your fathers did the same thing when I sent them from Kadesh Barnea to examine the land.
9 Kane gisechopo e Holo mar Eshkol mi giringo pinyno, negimiyo chuny jo-Israel onyosore mar dhi e piny mane Jehova Nyasaye osemiyogi.
They went up to the Valley of Eshkol. They saw the land and then discouraged the hearts of the people of Israel so that they refused to enter the land that Yahweh had given them.
10 Negitugo mirimb Jehova Nyasaye chiengʼno mi nokwongʼore kama:
Yahweh's anger was kindled on that day. He took an oath and said,
11 ‘Nikech ok giseluwa gi chunygi duto, onge kata ngʼato achiel ma ja-higa piero ariyo kadhi nyime mane oa Misri mabiro neno piny mane asingora ka akwongʼora ne Ibrahim, Isaka kod Jakobo;
'Surely none of the men who came up out of Egypt, from twenty years old and up, will see the land about which I swore to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, because they have not completely followed me, except for
12 onge ngʼato angʼata kuomgi manone pinyno makmana Kaleb wuod Jefune ma ja-Kenizi kod Joshua wuod Nun, nimar negiluwo bangʼ Jehova Nyasaye gi chunygi duto.’
Caleb son of Jephunneh the Kenizzite, and Joshua son of Nun. Only Caleb and Joshua have completely followed me.'
13 Jehova Nyasaye nokecho gi jo-Israel kendo nomiyo giwuotho alanda e thim kuom higni piero angʼwen, nyaka ogandani duto mane otimo marach e nyim Jehova Nyasaye notho.
So Yahweh's anger was kindled against Israel. He made them wander around in the wilderness for forty years until all the generation who had done evil in his sight was destroyed.
14 “Un koth jorichogi, koro ubiro ira, kuchungʼ kar kwereu kendo umiyo mirimb Jehova Nyasaye medore kuom Israel.
Look, you have risen up in your fathers' place, like just more sinful men, to add to Yahweh's burning anger toward Israel.
15 Ka uweyo luwo Jehova Nyasaye, to obiro jwangʼo ogandani duto e thim kendo un ema ubiro miyo jogi rum.”
If you turn away from following him, he will again leave Israel in the wilderness and you will have destroyed all this people.”
16 Bangʼ kinde matin negidwogo ir Musa mi giwachone niya, “Dwaher gero dipo ne jambwa kod mier madongo mondo mondwa kod nyithindwa odagie.
So they came near Moses and said, “Allow us to build fences here for our cattle and cities for our families.
17 To kata kamano waikore mar manore gi gige lweny kendo dhi gi jo-Israel wetewa e piny mane osingnegi. To mokwongo nyaka wager ne mondwa gi nyithindwa mier madongo mochiel motegno mondo ogengʼ-gi kuom wasigu.
However, we ourselves will be ready and armed to go with Israel's army until we have led them into their place. But our families will live in the fortified cities because of the other people who still live in this land.
18 Ok wanaduogi e miechwa nyaka wane ni jo-Israel duto oseyudo pinyno kaka pok margi.
We will not return to our houses until every one of the people of Israel has obtained his inheritance.
19 Wan ok wanadwar mondo opognwa piny kodgi loka machielo mar aora Jordan nimar osepognwa lopwa yo wuok chiengʼ mar Jordan lokani.”
We will not inherit the land with them on the other side of the Jordan, because our inheritance is here on the east side of the Jordan.”
20 Eka Musa nowachonegi niya, “Ka utimo kamano ma umanoru gi gige lweny e nyim Jehova Nyasaye,
So Moses replied to them, “If you do what you say, if you arm yourselves to go before Yahweh to war,
21 kendo ka un duto unudhi ka utingʼo gige lweny loka Jordan e nyim Jehova Nyasaye mi ubed kuno nyaka chop Jehova Nyasaye riemb wasike duto e nyime,
then every one of your armed men must cross over the Jordan before Yahweh, until he has driven out his enemies from before him
22 ka uloyo pinyno e nyim Jehova Nyasaye, eka unuduogi kendo unubedi maonge ketho e nyim Jehova Nyasaye gi Israel. Kendo pinyni biro bedo pok maru e nyim Jehova Nyasaye.
and the land is subdued before him. Then afterward you may return. You will be guiltless toward Yahweh and toward Israel. This land will be your possession before Yahweh.
23 “To ka ok utimo kamano, to ubiro timo richo e nyim Jehova Nyasaye; kendo bed ka ungʼeyo ni richou nofwenyre e lela.
But if you do not do so, look, you will have sinned against Yahweh. Be sure that your sin will find you out.
24 Geruru mier madongo ne mondu gi nyithindu, kod dipo ne jambu, kendo nyaka utim kaka usesingoru.”
Build cities for your families and pens for your sheep; then do what you have said.”
25 Jo-Gad kod jo-Reuben nowacho ne Musa niya, “Wan jotichni, wabiro timo gima ruodhwa osechikowa.
The descendants of Gad and Reuben spoke to Moses and said, “Your servants will do as you, our master, commands.
26 Nyithindwa kod mondewa, rombwa kod dhowa biro dongʼ e miech Gilead ka.
Our little ones, our wives, our flocks, and all our livestock will stay there in the cities of Gilead.
27 To wan jotichni, ngʼato ka ngʼata ma jalweny biro ngʼado loka Jordan mondo oked e nyim Jehova Nyasaye mana kaka ruodhwa osechiko.”
However, we, your servants, will cross over before Yahweh to battle, every man who is armed for war, as you, our master, say.”
28 Omiyo Musa nomiyogi chik ka oorogi ir Eliazar jadolo, kod Joshua wuod Nun kaachiel gi jotend dhout Israel.
So Moses gave instructions concerning them to Eleazar the priest, to Joshua son of Nun, and to the leaders of the ancestor's clans in the tribes of the people of Israel.
29 Nowachonegi niya, “Ka jo-Gad kod jo-Reuben noidh kaachiel kodu Jordan e nyim Jehova Nyasaye, ka ngʼato ka ngʼato omanore mar kedo, to bangʼ ka useloyo piny, to unumigi piny Gilead kaka pok margi.
Moses said to them, “If the descendants of Gad and Reuben cross over the Jordan with you, every man who is armed to battle before Yahweh, and if the land is subdued before you, then you will give them the land of Gilead as a possession.
30 To ka ok giidho kaachiel kodu ka gimanore gi gige lweny, to nyaka gikaw pok mag-gi kaachiel kodu Kanaan.”
But if they do not cross over with you armed, then they will acquire their possessions among you in the land of Canaan.”
31 Jo-Gad kod jo-Reuben nodwoko niya, “Jotichni biro timo kaka Jehova Nyasaye osewacho.
So the descendants of Gad and Reuben answered and said, “As Yahweh has said to us, your servants, this is what we will do.
32 Wabiro ngʼado ka wadhi loka Kanaan e nyim Jehova Nyasaye ka wamanore gi gige lweny, to pok ma wabiro yudo biro bedo loka koni mar Jordan.”
We will cross over armed before Yahweh into the land of Canaan, but our possessed inheritance will remain with us on this side of the Jordan.”
33 Eka Musa nomiyo jo-Gad, jo-Reuben kod nus mar dhood Manase wuod Josef pinyruodh Sihon ma ruodh jo-Amor kod pinyruodh Og ma ruodh Bashan; pinyno duto kaachiel gi miechgi kod gwenge molworogi.
So to the descendants of Gad and Reuben, and also to the half tribe of Manasseh son of Joseph, Moses gave the kingdom of Sihon, king of the Amorites, and of Og, king of Bashan. He gave to them the land, and distributed to them all its cities with their borders, the cities of the land around them.
34 Jo-Gad nogero mier madongo motegno kaka Dibon, Ataroth, Aroer,
The descendants of Gad rebuilt Dibon, Ataroth, Aroer,
35 Atroth Shofan, Jazer, Jogbeha,
Atroth Shophan, Jazer, Jogbehah,
36 Beth Nimra kod Beth Haran, kendo negigero dipo ne jambgi.
Beth Nimrah, and Beth Haran as fortified cities with pens for sheep.
37 Joka Reuben nogero Heshbon, Eleale kod Kiriathaim,
The descendants of Reuben rebuilt Heshbon, Elealeh, Kiriathaim,
38 kaachiel gi Nebo kod Baal Meon (nyingegi noduog oloki achien) kod Sibma. Mier madongo mane gigero negimiyo nying mamoko.
Nebo, Baal Meon—their names were later changed, and Sibmah. They gave other names to the cities that they rebuilt.
39 Nyikwa Makir wuod Manase nodhi Gilead, moloyo dalano mi giriembo jo-Amor mane oyudo odak kanyo.
The descendants of Machir son of Manasseh went to Gilead and took it away from the Amorites who were in it.
40 Omiyo Musa nochiwo Gilead e lwet jo-Makir, ma nyikwa Manase, kendo negidak kanyo.
Then Moses gave Gilead to Machir son of Manasseh, and his people settled there.
41 Jair ma nyakwar Manase nodhi mokawo mier madongo mane ni kanyo, kendo nochako kanyo ni Havoth Jair.
Jair son of Manasseh went and captured its towns and called them Havvoth Jair.
42 Noba nomonjo Kenath kod mier molwore kendo nochake nyinge owuon miluongo ni Noba.
Nobah went and captured Kenath and its villages, and he called it Nobah, after his own name.
