< Oekyuk 32 >

1 Arulana pus cow nutin sruf lal Reuben ac Gad. Na ke elos liye lah wo acn Jazer ac Gilead nu ke tohf cow
Now the children of Reuben and the children of Gad had a very great multitude of cattle; and they saw the land of Ya'zer, and the land of Gil'ad, that, behold, the place was a place for cattle.
2 elos utyak nu yorol Moses, Eleazar, ac mwet kol saya lun mwet Israel ac fahk,
And the children of Gad and the children of Reuben came, and said unto Moses, and unto Elazar the priest, and unto the princes of the congregation, as followeth,
3 “Acn Ataroth, Dibon, Jazer, Nimrah, Heshbon, Elealeh, Sibmah, Nebo, ac Beon
'Ataroth, and Dibon, and Ya'zer, and Nimrah, and Cheshbon, and El'aleh, and Sebam, and Nebo, and Be'on,
4 LEUM GOD El tuh kasrekut eisla. Acn inge wona nu ke tohf kosro, ac arulana pus kosro natusr uh.
The country which the Lord hath smitten before the congregation of Israel, is a land for cattle; and thy servants have cattle.
5 Nunak munas ase acn inge in ma lasr, ac tia sap kut in alukela Infacl Jordan in muta layen roto.”
And they said, If we have found grace in thy eyes, let this land be given unto thy servants for a possession: do not compel us to go over the Jordan.
6 Tusruktu Moses el topuk ac fahk, “Ya ma liwos ac som mweun, a kowos ac mutana inge?
And Moses said unto the children of Gad, and unto the children of Reuben, Shall your brethren go to the war, and will ye sit here?
7 Efu kowos ku srike in akmunasye nunkun mwet Israel tuh elos in tia lungse fahsr aliki Infacl Jordan nu in facl se su LEUM GOD El sang nu selos?
And wherefore will you turn aside the heart of the children of Israel from going over into the land which the Lord hath given them?
8 Pa ingan ma papa tomowos ah tuh oru ke nga supwalosla liki Kadesh Barnea in kalngeyuk nu in acn sac.
Thus did your fathers, when I sent them from Kadesh-barnea' to see the land.
9 Elos som nwe sun Infahlfal Eshcol ac liye facl sac, tusruktu ke elos foloko, elos akmunasye mwet uh in tia utyak nu in facl se su LEUM GOD El sang nu selos.
For they went up as far as the valley of Eshcol, and they saw the land, and then they turned aside the heart of the children of Israel, so that they would not go into the land which the Lord had given them.
10 LEUM GOD El tuh kasrkusrakak ke len sac, ac orala wulela se inge:
And the anger of the Lord was kindled on that day, and he swore, saying,
11 ‘Nga fulahk lah, mweyen elos tia inse pwayena nu sik, wangin sie sin mwet su matwa yac longoulyak su illa liki acn Egypt fah utyak nu in facl se su nga wuleang kac nu sel Abraham, Isaac ac Jacob.’
Surely none of the men that came up out of Egypt, from twenty years old and upward, shall see the land which I swore unto Abraham, unto Isaac, and unto Jacob; because they have not wholly followed me:
12 Kas inge ma nu sin mwet nukewa, sayal Caleb wen natul Jephunneh mwet Ken, ac Joshua wen natul Nun. Eltal mukena inse pwayena nu sin LEUM GOD.
Save Caleb the son of Yephunneh the Kenizzite, and Joshua the son of Nun; for they have wholly followed the Lord.
13 LEUM GOD El kasrkusrakak sin mwet uh ac oru elos in forfor yen mwesis ke yac angngaul, nwe ke na fwil nufon se ma oru ma koluk ye mutal ah misa.
And the anger of the Lord was thus kindled against Israel, and he made them wander about in the wilderness forty years, until all the generation was spent, that had done the evil in the eyes of the Lord.
14 Ac inge kowos sie fwil sasu su aolla papa matu tomowos in oru ma koluk, ac akyokye kasrkusrak lun LEUM GOD nu fin Israel.
And now, behold, ye are risen up in your father's stead, a new race of sinful men, to augment yet more the fierce anger of the Lord toward Israel.
15 Mwet Reuben ac Gad, kowos fin forla lukel inge, El ac sifilpa fahsr liki mwet inge nukewa yen mwesis uh, na mwatan ma koluk ma ac sikyak inge ac fah oan fowos.”
For if ye turn away from after him, he will yet longer leave them in the wilderness; and ye will thus be destruction to all this people.
16 Na elos kalukyang nu yorol Moses ac fahk, “Kut siyuk tuh kut in etoak kutu kalkal eot nu ke sheep natusr uh, ac musai kutu siti ke pot ku nu sin sou lasr uh.
And they came near unto him, and said, Sheepfolds will we build for our cattle here, and cities for our little ones;
17 Na kut ac fah akola in wi mwet Israel wiasr som nu ke mweun, ac kut fah fahsr meet in kololos nwe ke kut oakelosi fin acn su ac fah ma lalos. In pacl ingan, sou lasr uh fah muta inge in siti kalkalyak ke pot ku, ac tia sensen ke mwet in facl se inge.
But we ourselves will go ready armed before the children of Israel, until that we have brought them unto their place; and our little ones shall dwell in the fortified cities, because of the inhabitants of the land.
18 Kut fah tia foloko nu yen sesr nwe ke mwet Israel nukewa elos oakwuki in acn ma itukyang nu selos.
We will not return unto our houses, until the children of Israel have acquired for themselves every man his inheritance.
19 Kut fah tia eis kutena acn sesr layen roto in Infacl Jordan, mweyen kut eis tari ip lasr inge layen kutulap in Infacl Jordan.”
For we will not take possession with them on the other side of the Jordan, and farther on: when our inheritance hath come to us on this side of the Jordan eastward.
20 Moses el topuk, “Fin pwayena ma kowos fahk, na inge ye mutun LEUM GOD, kowos akola in som nu ke mweun.
And Moses said unto them, If ye will do this thing, if ye will arm yourselves before the Lord for the war;
21 Mwet mweun lowos nukewa in fahsr sasla Infacl Jordan, na ye koko lun LEUM GOD elos in mweun lain mwet lokoalok lasr nwe ke LEUM GOD El kutangulosla
And every armed man of you will go over the Jordan before the Lord, until he have driven out his enemies from before him;
22 ac eis acn sac. Toko kowos ac ku in foloko, mweyen kowos akfalyela tari ma kunowos nu sin LEUM GOD ac nu sin mwet Israel wiowos. Na LEUM GOD El fah akkalemye lah acn se inge kutulap in Infacl Jordan ma lowos.
And when, only after the land hath been subdued before the Lord, ye will return, and ye be thus guiltless before the Lord, and before Israel: then shall this land be yours for a possession before the Lord.
23 Tusruktu kowos fin tia oru oana ma kowos wulela inge, nga akkalemye nu suwos lah kowos orekma koluk lain LEUM GOD. Kowos in arulana etu lah ac fah kaiyuk kowos ke ma koluk lowos.
But if ye will not do so, behold, ye have sinned against the Lord; and ye shall experience the punishment of your sin which will overtake you.
24 Ke ma inge, musai siti nu sin sou lowos ac kalkal nu ke sheep ac nani nutuwos an, tusruktu kowos in oru na ma kowos wulela kac!”
Build yourselves cities for your little ones, and folds for your flocks; and that which hath proceeded out of your mouth shall ye do.
25 Na mukul ke sruf lal Gad ac Reuben elos fahk, “Moses, kut ac oru oana kom sapkin.
And the children of Gad and the children of Reuben said unto Moses, as followeth, Thy servants will do as my Lord commandeth.
26 Mutan kiasr, tulik natusr, cow natusr, ac sheep natusr fah mutana inge ke siti in acn Gilead.
Our little ones, our wives, our flocks, and all our cattle, shall remain there in the cities of Gil'ad;
27 A kut nukewa ac akola in som nu ke mweun ye kolyuk lun LEUM GOD. Kut ac fahla alukela Infacl Jordan ac mweun, oana ke kom fahk.”
But thy servants will pass over, every one that is armed for the army, before the Lord, to the war, as my Lord speaketh.
28 Ouinge Moses el sang ma sap inge nu sel Eleazar, Joshua, ac mwet kol saya lun mwet Israel:
And Moses commanded concerning them Elazar the priest, and Joshua the son of Nun, and the chiefs of the families of the tribes of the children of Israel;
29 “Mukul ke sruf lun Gad ac Reuben fin fahsr aliki Infacl Jordan ac akola nu ke mweun ke sap lun LEUM GOD, ac kowos fin eisla acn sac ke sripen kasru lalos, na kowos fah sang nu selos acn Gilead tuh in ma lalos.
And Moses said unto them, If the children of Gad and the children of Reuben do pass with you over the Jordan, every one that is armed for the war, before the Lord, and the land shall be subdued before you: then shall ye give to them the land of Gil'ad for a possession;
30 Tusruktu elos fin tia fahla alukela Infacl Jordan ac wi kowos mweun, elos ac fah eis na acn selos inmasrlowos fin acn Canaan.”
But if they should not pass over armed with you, they shall take possessions among you in the land of Canaan.
31 Mukul ke sruf lun Gad ac Reuben elos topuk, “Kut ac oru oana ma LEUM GOD El sapkin.
And the children of Gad and the children of Reuben answered, saying, That which the Lord hath spoken concerning thy servants, even so will we do.
32 Ye kolyuk lal, kut fah fahla aliki nu in facl Canaan ac mweun, tuh acn inge kutulap in Infacl Jordan in ma lasr.”
We will indeed pass over armed before the Lord into the land of Canaan, while ours remaineth the possession of our inheritance on this side of the Jordan.
33 Ouinge Moses el oakiya acn nukewa ke facl sel Tokosra Sihon lun acn Amor, ac facl sel Tokosra Og lun acn Bashan, weang siti srisrik ac acn nukewa ma raunela, tuh in ma lun sruf lun Gad ac Reuben ac tafu sruf lal Manasseh.
And Moses gave unto them, to the children of Gad, and to the children of Reuben, and to half the tribe of Menasseh the son of Joseph, the kingdom of Sichon, the king of the Emorites, and the kingdom of 'Og, the king of Bashan, the land, with its cities within the boundaries, the cities of the country round about.
34 Sruf lun Gad sifil musaela pot ku in siti Dibon, Ataroth, Aroer,
And the children of Gad built Dibon, and 'Ataroth, and 'Aro'er,
35 Atroth, Shophan, Jazer, Jogbehah,
And 'Atroth-shophan, and Ya'zer, and Yogbehah.
36 Beth Nimrah, ac Beth Haran.
And Beth-nimrah, and Beth-haran, fortified cities, and folds for flocks,
37 Sruf lun Reuben sifil musaela Heshbon, Elealeh, Kiriathaim,
And the children of Reuben built Cheshbon, and El'aleh, and Kiryathayim,
38 Nebo, Baal Meon (ayaolla inen acn se inge), ac Sibmah. Elos sang ine sasu nu ke siti ma elos sifil musaela.
And Nebo, and Ba'al-me'on [their names being changed], and Shibmah; and they gave the former names unto the cities which they built.
39 Sou lulap lal Machir, wen natul Manasseh, mweun ac eisla acn Gilead, ac elos lusla mwet Amor su muta we.
And the children of Machir the son of Menasseh went to Gil'ad, and conquered it, and dispossessed the Emorites who were in it.
40 Ke ma inge Moses el sang acn Gilead nu sin sou lal Machir, ac elos muta we.
And Moses gave Gil'ad unto Machir the son of Menasseh; and he dwelt therein.
41 Jair, ke sruf lal Manasseh, el mweun ac sruokya kutu siti srisrik we, ac sang ine sasu se inge nu kac: “Siti Srisrik lun Jair.”
And Yair the son of Menasseh went and conquered the small towns thereof, and called them Chavoth-yair.
42 Nobah el mweun ac sruokya acn Kenath ac siti srisrik raunela, ac sang inel sifacna nu ke acn inge: Nobah.
And Nobach went and conquered Kenath, and the villages thereof, and called it Nobach, after his own name.
