Deuteronomy 9

1 Hear, O Israel: Thou shalt go over the Jordan this day; to possess nations very great, and stronger than thyself, cities great, and walled up to the sky,

Yaye Israel, winjuru, uchiegni ngʼado Jordan ka udhi riembo oganda maduongʼ kendo maroteke moloyou, man-gi mier madongo ma ohingagi chopo nyaka e kor polo.

2 A People great and tall, the sons of the Enacims, whom thou hast seen, and heard of, against whom no man is able to stand.

Jo-Anak gin joma roteke kendo roboche! Usewinjo kiwuoyo kuomgi kiwacho niya, “Ere joma dichungʼ e nyim jo-Anak?”

3 Thou shalt know therefore this day that the Lord thy God himself will pass over before thee, a devouring and consuming fire, to destroy and extirpate and bring them to nothing before thy face quickly, as he hath spoken to thee.

To beduru gigeno kawuono ni Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu ema dhi telo nyimu mana ka mach mawengʼo. Obiro tiekogi kendo obiro nyonogi mana ka uneno, kendo unuriembgi mi girum chutho mapiyo nono mana kaka Jehova Nyasaye osechiko.

4 Say not in thy heart, when the Lord thy God shall have destroyed them in thy sight: For my justice hath the Lord brought me in to possess this land, whereas these nations are destroyed for their wickedness.

Ka Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu oseriembogi oko e wangʼu ka uneno, to kik uwach e chunyu niya, “Jehova Nyasaye osekelowa ka mondo wakaw pinyni nikech timwa makare.” Ooyo en mana nikech timbe maricho mag ogendinigo emomiyo Jehova Nyasaye dhi riembogi ka uneno.

5 For it is not for thy justices, and the uprightness of thy heart that thou shalt go in to possess their lands: but because they have done wickedly, they are destroyed at thy coming in: and that the Lord might accomplish his word, which he promised by oath to thy fathers Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.

Ok nikech timu mabeyo kata lony maru emomiyo udhi kawo pinyno mondo obed maru; to mana nikech timbe maricho mag ogandagi ema miyo Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu biro riembogi oko e wangʼu mondo ochop gima nowachone kwereu ma Ibrahim, Isaka kod Jakobo.

6 Know therefore that the Lord thy God giveth thee not this excellent land in possession for thy justices, for thou art a very stiffnecked people.

Ngʼeuru ni ok en nikech timu makare emomiyo Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu miyou piny maberni mondo ukaw, nimar kadier to un joma tokgi tek.

7 Remember, and forget not how then provokedst the Lord thy God to wrath in the wilderness. From the day that thou camest out of Egypt unto this place, thou hast always strove against the Lord.

Paruru wachni kendo kik wiu wil kaka ne ujimbo mirimb Jehova Nyasaye e thim. Kochakore chiengʼ mane uwuok Misri ma uchopo ka, usebedo mana ka ungʼanyo ne Jehova Nyasaye.

8 For in Horeb also thou didst provoke him, and he was angry, and would have destroyed thee,

Kane un Horeb ne ujimbo mirimb Jehova Nyasaye mane iye owangʼ modwaro tiekou.

9 When I went up into the mount to receive the tables of stone, the tables of the covenant which the Lord made with you: and I continued in the mount forty days and nights, neither eating bread, nor drinking water.

Kane adhi e got mondo akaw chike mane ondiki e kite mopa, chike mag singruok mane Jehova Nyasaye otimo kodu, ne abet e got odiechienge piero angʼwen kod otieno piero angʼwen; kendo ne ok achiemo kata modho pi.

10 And the Lord gave me two tables of stone written with the finger of God, and containing all the words that he spoke to you in the mount from the midst of the Are, when the people were assembled together.

Jehova Nyasaye ne omiya kite ariyo ma ondiki gi lwet Nyasaye. Kuomgi ne ondiki e chike duto mane Jehova Nyasaye owachonu koa e mach mawuok e got, e odiechieng chokruok.

11 And when forty days were passed, and as many nights, the Lord gave me the two tables of stone, the tables of the covenant,

Kane odichienge piero angʼwen kod otieno piero angʼwen oserumo, Jehova Nyasaye nomiya kite mopa ariyo, ma gin kite mag singruok.

12 And said to me: Arise, and go down from hence quickly: for thy people, which thou hast brought out of Egypt, have quickly forsaken the way that thou hast shewn them, and have made to themselves a molten idol.

Eka Jehova Nyasaye nowachona niya, “Lor piny piyo piyo ia e got, nikech jogi mane igolo oa e piny Misri oselokore jo-mibadhi. Giseweyo mapiyo gik mane achikogi, kendo giseloso nyiseche mag kido.”

13 And again the Lord said to me: I see that this people is stiffnecked:

Kendo Jehova Nyasaye ne owachona niya, “Aseneno jogi, kendo gin joma tokgi tek adier!

14 Let me alone that I may destroy them, and abolish their name from under heaven, and set thee over a nation, that is greater and stronger than this.

We mondo atiekgi duto mondo agol nying-gi oko e wangʼ piny kae. Abiro miyo idok oganda maratego kendo mangʼeny moloyogi.”

15 And when I came down from the burning mount, and held the two tables of the covenant with both hands,

Omiyo nalokora kendo alor kaa e got mane oyudo wangʼ. Kite mopa ariyo motingʼo winjruok ne nitie e lweta.

16 And saw that you had sinned against the Lord your God, and had made to yourselves a molten calf, and had quickly forsaken his way, which he had shewn you:

Kane angʼiyo ne aneno ni usetimo ketho e nyim Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu; kendo useloso nyasaye mar kido ma olos ka nyaroya. Uselokoru piyo ma uweyo yo ma Jehova Nyasaye ne ochikou.

17 I cast the tables out of my hands, and broke them in your sight.

Omiyo ne akawo kite mopa mane ni e lweta mi adiro piny ma gitore matindo tindo e nyimu.

18 And I fell down before the Lord as before, forty days and nights neither eating bread, nor drinking water, for all your sins, which you had committed against the Lord, and had provoked him to wrath:

Eka ne achako ariera piny e nyim Jehova Nyasaye kuom ndalo piero angʼwen odiechiengʼ gotieno; ne ok achiemo kata modho pi, nikech richo duto mane utimo, ka utimo gik mamono e nyim Jehova Nyasaye, kendo ka ujimbo mirimbe.

19 For I feared his indignation and anger, wherewith being moved against you, he would have destroyed you. And the Lord heard me this time also.

Ne aluoro mirima kod kum mager mar Jehova Nyasaye, nimar mirima nomake ahinya mar tiekou. To kata kamano nowinjo ywakna kendo.

20 And he was exceeding angry against Aaron also, and would have destroyed him, and I prayed in like manner for him.

Jehova Nyasaye ne iye owangʼ gi Harun mi odwaro tieke, to e kindeno ne alemone Harun bende.

21 And your sin that you had committed, that is, the calf, I took, and burned it with fire, and breaking it into pieces, until it was as small as dust, I threw it into the torrent, which cometh down from the mountain.

Bende ne akawo giru mar kethono, ma en kido mar nyaroya mane uloso, mine awangʼe e mach. Bangʼe ne atoye matindo tindo narege mayom kaka mogo, eka ne akire e aora mamol koa e got.

22 At the burning also, and at the place of temptation, and at the graves of lust you provoked the Lord:

Bende ne umiyo Jehova Nyasaye mirima ka un Tabera, Masa, kod Kibroth Hatava.

23 And when he sent you from Cadesbarne, saying: Go up, and possess the land that I have given you, and you slighted the commandment of the Lord your God, and did not believe him, neither would you hearken to his voice:

Kendo kane Jehova Nyasaye ogolou Kadesh Barnea nowacho niya, “Dhiuru mondo ukaw piny ma asemiyou.” To ne ungʼanyo ne chike mag Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu, ne ok ugeno kuome kata miye luor.

24 But were always rebellious from the day that I began to know you.

Usebedo ka ungʼanyo ne Jehova Nyasaye ndalo duto ma asengʼeyoue.

25 And I lay prostrate before the Lord forty days and nights, in which I humbly besought him, that he would not destroy you as he had threatened:

Ne ariera piny ndalo piero angʼwen odiechiengʼ gotieno nikech Jehova Nyasaye nowacho ni obiro tiekou.

26 And praying, I said: O Lord God, destroy not thy people, and thy inheritance, which thou hast redeemed in thy greatness, whom thou hast brought out of Egypt with a strong hand.

Ne alamo Jehova Nyasaye kawacho niya, “Yaye Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto, kik itiek jogigi, ma gin girkeni mari iwuon mane ireso gi badi maratego e piny Misri.

27 Remember thy servants Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob: look not on the stubbornness of this people, nor on their wickedness and sin:

Par jotichni ma gin Ibrahim, Isaka kod Jakobo kendo kik ine wich teko margi, timbegi maricho kod richo mag-gi

28 Lest perhaps the inhabitants of the land, out of which thou hast brought us, say: The Lord could not bring them into the land that he promised them, and he hated them: therefore he brought them out, that he might kill them in the wilderness,

Ka ok kamano to piny mane igolowa biro wacho ni, ‘Nikech Jehova Nyasaye ne ok nyal kawogi matergi e piny mane osesingonegi kendo nikech ne ok oherogi, to Jehova Nyasaye osetero joge e thim mondo otho kuno nikech osin kodgi.’

29 Who are thy people and thy inheritance, whom thou hast brought out by thy great strength, and in thy stretched out arm.

To ngʼe ni gin jogi owuon kendo ma girkeni mari mane igolo gi tekoni maduongʼ kod bat morie.”
