Leviticus 18
1 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
Jehova Nyasaye nowacho ne Musa niya:
2 Speak to the children of Israel, and thou shalt say to them: I am the Lord your God.
“Wuo gi jo-Israel kendo iwachnegi ni, ‘An e Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu.
3 You shall not do according to the custom of the land of Egypt, in which you dwelt: neither shall you act according to the manner of the country of Chanaan, into which I will bring you, nor shall you walk in their ordinances.
Kik utim timbe ma jo-Misri mane udak e diergi timo kendo kik timbe moko mag jo-Kanaan makoro aterou e diergi yudre kuomu. Bende kik uluw timbe ma gitimo.
4 You shall do my judgments, and shall observe my precepts, and shall walk in them. I am the Lord your God.
Nyaka urit chikena kendo luwuru yorena, nikech an Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu.
5 Keep my laws and my judgments, which if a man do, he shall live in them. I am the Lord.
Rituru yorena kod chikena, nimar ngʼat moluwogi nobed mangima kuomgi. An e Jehova Nyasaye.
6 No man shall approach to her that is near of kin to him, to uncover her nakedness. I am the Lord.
“‘Kik ngʼato terre gi dhako moluongo ni watne. An e Jehova Nyasaye.
7 Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy father, or the nakedness of thy mother: she is thy mother, thou shalt not uncover her nakedness.
“‘Kik ikuod wi wuonu kuom terruok gi chiege, nikech en minu.
8 Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy father’s wife: for it is the nakedness of thy father.

“‘Kik iterri gi nyaminu mahie, kata nyameru maka wuonu machielo kata maka minu machielo, bedni onywole e dala kae, kata kamoro machielo.
10 Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy son’s daughter, or thy daughter’s daughter: because it is thy own nakedness.
“‘Kik iterri gi nyakwari maka wuodi kata maka nyari, nikech kitimo kamano to ikelo wichkuot ni in iwuon.
11 Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy father’s wife’s daughter, whom she bore to thy father, and who is thy sister.
“‘Kik iterri gi nyaminu moa e ot machielo, nikech en nyaminu.
12 Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy father’s sister: because she is the flesh of thy father.
“‘Kik iterri gi nyamin wuonu nikech en wayu.
13 Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy mother’s sister: because she is thy mother’s flesh.
“‘Kik iterri gi nyamin mamau nikech en bende en mamau.
14 Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy father’s brother: neither shalt thou approach to his wife, who is joined to thee by affinity.
“‘Kik igomb terori gi chi owadgi wuonu nikech en minu, kendo mano kelo wichkuot ne wuonuno.
15 Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy daughter in law: because she is thy son’s wife, neither shalt thou discover her shame.

16 Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy brother’s wife: because it is the nakedness of thy brother.
“‘Kik iterri gi chi owadu nikech mano nyalo kelo wichkuot ne owaduno.
17 Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy wife and her daughter. Thou shalt not take her son’s daughter or her daughter’s daughter, to discover her shame: because they are her flesh, and such copulation is incest.
“‘Kik iterri gi nyako kaachiel gi min-gi. Kik iterri gi nyakware ma ka wuode kata maka nyare, nikech gin wede dhakono. Mano en tim anjawo.
18 Thou shalt not take thy wife’s sister for a harlot, to rival her, neither shalt thou discover her nakedness, while she is yet living.
“‘Kik ikend nyamin chiegi mondo obed nyieke ma iriwri kode ka nyamin pod ngima.
19 Thou shalt not approach to a woman having her flowers, neither shalt thou uncover her nakedness.
“‘Kik iterri gi dhako manie kindene mar neno malo.
20 Thou shalt not lie with thy neighbour’s wife, nor be defiled with mingling of seed.
“‘Kik iterri gi chi ngʼama udakgo mokiewo, dipo ka omiyo ibedo mogak.
21 Thou shalt not give any of thy seed to be consecrated to the idol Moloch, nor defile the name of thy God: I am the Lord.
“‘Kik ichiw nyathini moro amora ni nyasaye manono miluongo ni Molek, nimar ok onego iketh nying Nyasaye. An e Jehova Nyasaye.
22 Thou shalt not lie with mankind as with womankind, because it is an abomination.
“‘Kik iterri gi dichwo wadu nikech mano en tim makwero.
23 Thou shalt not copulate with any beast, neither shalt thou be defiled with it. A woman shall not lie down to a beast, nor copulate with it: because it is a heinous crime.
“‘Kik iterri gi chiayo nikech mano miyo ibedo mogak. Dhako bende kik yie mondo chiayo oterre kode, nikech mano en gima kwero.
24 Defile not yourselves with any of these things with which all the nations have been defiled, which I will cast out before you,
“‘Kik udwanyru kutimo timbe ma kamago nikech timbego ema ogendini mabiro riembo e nyimu ne timo.
25 And with which the land is defiled: the abominations of which I will visit, that it may vomit out its inhabitants.
Kata mana piny bende nobedo mogak, omiyo ne akumogi nikech richo mag-gi, kendo piny nongʼogo joma nodakie iye.
26 Keep ye my ordinances and my judgments, and do not any of these abominations: neither any of your own nation, nor any stranger that sojourneth among you.
To nyaka urit yorena kod chikena. Onge ngʼato kuomu manotim timbe makwerogo kata obed ja-Israel kata jadak e dieru,
27 For all these detestable things the inhabitants of the land have done, that; were before you, and have defiled it.
nikech magi e timbe ma joma nodak e pinyni kapok ubiro notimo kendo negiketho pinyni.
28 Beware then, lest in like manner, it vomit you also out, if you do the like things, as it vomited out the nation that was before you.
To ka udwanyo pinyno, to ngʼeuru ni onyalo ngʼogou oko mar oganda mane okwongonu dake kane gidwanye.
29 Every soul that shall commit any of these abominations, shall perish from the midst of his people.
“‘Jogo duto matim makwerogo noyud e ngimagi, ginto nyaka golgi oko ei ogandagi.
30 Keep my commandments. Do not the things which they have done, that have been before you, and be not defiled therein. I am the Lord your God.
Emomiyo luwuru chikena kendo ritreuru ma kik uluw timbe makwero mane joma odak e pinyni otimo kapok ubiro, mondo kik ubed mogak. An e Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu.’”
