Bible Mutal (Kosraean)
1“You shall not spread a false report. Do not join the wicked by being a malicious witness.
1“Nik kom akyokyelik sramsram tia pwaye, ac nik kom kinauk ma sutuu sang kasru sie mwet oasr mwata.
2You shall not follow the crowd in wrongdoing. When you testify in a lawsuit, do not pervert justice by siding with the crowd.
2Nik kom oru ma sutuu finne pusiyen mwet uh oru, ku welulos kifasla ma suwohs ke pacl in nununku.
3And do not show favoritism to a poor man in his lawsuit.
3Ke kom nununku sie mwet sukasrup, nimet akfisrasrye nununku lom nu sel ke sripen sukasrup lal.
4If you encounter your enemy’s stray ox or donkey, you must return it to him.
4“Kom fin sun cow soko ku donkey soko ma kaingla nutin mwet lokoalok lom, folokunla nu yorol.
5If you see the donkey of one who hates you fallen under its load, do not leave it there; you must help him with it.
5Donkey natul fin ikori ye ma toasr oan facl, nikmet fahlana, a kom in kasrel tulokonak donkey natul nwe ke el sifilpa tuyak.
6You shall not deny justice to the poor in their lawsuits.
6“Nimet ikol nununku suwohs nu sin sie mwet sukasrup.
7Stay far away from a false accusation. Do not kill the innocent or the just, for I will not acquit the guilty.
7Nik kom oru tukak tia pwaye, ac nik kom eisang sie mwet suwoswos nu ke misa, mweyen nga ac fah lusla kutena mwet su oru kain koluk ouinge.
8Do not accept a bribe, for a bribe blinds those who see and twists the words of the righteous.
8Nik kom eis molin eyeinse, tuh molin eyeinse uh akkunye mutun mwet nu ke ma suwohs, ac akkihyela nununku suwohs nu selos su wangin mwata.
9Do not oppress a foreign resident, since you yourselves know how it feels to be foreigners; for you were foreigners in the land of Egypt.
9“Nik kom oru koluk nu sin sie mwetsac. Kom pula pac tari moul in mwetsac uh, mweyen kom tuh sie mwetsac in facl Egypt meet.
10For six years you are to sow your land and gather its produce,
10“Yac onkosr kom in yoki acn sum ac eisani fahko kac.
11but in the seventh year you must let it rest and lie fallow, so that the poor among your people may eat from the field and the wild animals may consume what they leave. Do the same with your vineyard and olive grove.
11A ke yac se akitkosr lela acn sum in mongla — kom fah tia yoki ac tia pac kosrani. Lela mwet sukasrup uh in kang kutena ma kap we, ac kosro inima uh in kang ma lula. Oru oapana ke ima in grape lowos ac sak olive sunowos.
12For six days you are to do your work, but on the seventh day you must cease, so that your ox and your donkey may rest and the son of your maidservant may be refreshed, as well as the foreign resident.
12“Kom in orekma len onkosr ke wik se, tusruk nimet oru kutena orekma ke len akitkosr, tuh mwet kohs lowos ac mwetsac su orekma nu suwos, ac finne kosro nutuwos, in ku in mongla.
13Pay close attention to everything I have said to you. You must not invoke the names of other gods; they must not be heard on your lips.
13“Porongo ma nukewa ma nga, LEUM GOD , fahk tari nu sum. Nik kom pre nu sin god saya. Finne inelos, kom in tia pac fahk.
14Three times a year you are to celebrate a feast to Me.
14“Kowos in tukeni ac oru kufwa lulap tolu ke yac se in akfulatyeyu.
15You are to keep the Feast of Unleavened Bread as I commanded you: At the appointed time in the month of Abib you are to eat unleavened bread for seven days, because that was the month you came out of Egypt. No one may appear before Me empty-handed.
15In malem Abib, malem se ma kowos illa liki Egypt, kowos in akfulatye Kufwen Bread Tia Akpulol ke ouiya ma nga sapkin tari nu suwos. Nimet kang kutena bread orekla ke mwe pulol inmasrlon len itkosr lun kufwa se inge. Nimet tuku in alu nu sik ke wangin mwe sang inpouwos.
16You are also to keep the Feast of Harvest with the firstfruits of the produce from what you sow in the field. And keep the Feast of Ingathering at the end of the year, when you gather your produce from the field.
16“Akfulatye Kufwen Kosrani ke kowos mutawauk in kosrani wheat sunowos. “Akfulatye Kufwen Iwen Aktuktuk ke saflaiyen pacl in kosrani, ke kowos telani fokin ima in grape ac fokinsak olive sunowos.
17Three times a year all your males are to appear before the Lord GOD.
17In yac nukewa ke pacl in akfulatye kufwa lulap tolu inge, mukul Israel nukewa in tuku alu nu sik, LEUM GOD lowos.
18You must not offer the blood of My sacrifices with anything leavened, nor may the fat of My feast remain until morning.
18“Nik kom sang bread ma orek ke mwe pulol ke kom kisakin soko kosro nu sik. Kiris ke kosro kisakinyuk nu sik ke pacl in kufwa inge, fah tia oan nu ke lotutang tok ah.
19Bring the best of the firstfruits of your soil to the house of the LORD your God. You must not cook a young goat in its mother’s milk.
19Ke kais sie yac, kom fah use nu in lohm sin LEUM GOD lom, fahko ma wo emeet ke kosrani se meet lom. “Nik kom poeli soko sheep fusr, ku nani fusr, ke sronin titi lun nina kia.
20Behold, I am sending an angel before you to protect you along the way and to bring you to the place I have prepared.
20“Nga ac supwala sie lipufan in fahsr meet liki kowos, in karingin kowos ke fufahsryesr lowos, ac in uskowosla nu ke acn se su nga akoela.
21Pay attention to him and listen to his voice; do not defy him, for he will not forgive rebellion, since My Name is in him.
21Lohang nu sel ac aksol. Nimet lainul, mweyen nga pa supwalot, ac kowos fin lainul el ac fah tia nunak munas nu suwos kac.
22But if you will listen carefully to his voice and do everything I say, I will be an enemy to your enemies and a foe to your foes.
22Tusruktu kowos fin aksol ac oru ma nukewa nga sapkin, nga fah mweun lain mwet lokoalok lowos nukewa.
23For My angel will go before you and bring you into the land of the Amorites, Hittites, Perizzites, Canaanites, Hivites, and Jebusites, and I will annihilate them.
23Lipufan luk ac fah fahsr meet liki kowos ac us kowos nu in facl sin mwet Amor, mwet Hit, mwet Periz, mwet Canaan, mwet Hiv, ac mwet Jebus, ac nga fah kunauselosla.
24You must not bow down to their gods or serve them or follow their practices. Instead, you are to demolish them and smash their sacred stones to pieces.
24Nik kowos epasr nu sin god lalos ku alu nu selos, ac nik kowos etai ouiyen alu lalos. Kunauselik god lalos ac fukulya loang eot mutal lalos.
25So you shall serve the LORD your God, and He will bless your bread and your water. And I will take away sickness from among you.
25Kowos fin alu nu sik, LEUM GOD lowos, nga ac fah akinsewowoye kowos ke mwe mongo ac kof ac eisla mas nukewa lowos liki kowos.
26No woman in your land will miscarry or be barren; I will fulfill the number of your days.
26Ac fah wangin tulik putatla nutin mutan pitutu, ac ac fah wangin pac mutan talap in facl suwos. Nga ac fah akloesye moul lowos.
27I will send My terror ahead of you and throw into confusion every nation you encounter. I will make all your enemies turn and run.
27“Nga fah aksangengalos su lain kowos, ac mwet su kowos mweuni nga fah akfohsyalosyak. Nga fah oru mwet lokoalok lowos nukewa in forla ac kaing liki kowos.
28I will send the hornet before you to drive the Hivites and Canaanites and Hittites out of your way.
28Nga fah oru tuh mwet lokoalok lowos — su mwet Hiv, mwet Canaan, ac mwet Hit — in fosrngalana, ac nga fah ukwalosyak ke kowos fahsr in utyak nu in facl selos.
29I will not drive them out before you in a single year; otherwise the land would become desolate and wild animals would multiply against you.
29Nga ac fah tia luselosla ke pulan yac se, mweyen nga fin oru ouinge, na acn uh ac mwesisla, ac kosro lemnak uh ac arulana pusla, na kowos tia ku in lain.
30Little by little I will drive them out ahead of you, until you become fruitful and possess the land.
30Nga fah kais kutu lusla mwet lokoalok lowos, nwe ke kowos faseni in ku in eisla acn selos.
31And I will establish your borders from the Red Sea to the Sea of the Philistines, and from the desert to the Euphrates. For I will deliver the inhabitants into your hand, and you will drive them out before you.
31Nga fah oru masrol lun acn suwos in mutawauk ke Meoa Srusra fahla nwe ke Meoa Mediteranean, ac oayapa yen mwesis lac nwe ke Infacl Euphrates. Nga fah sot mwet in facl sac nu inpouwos, ac kowos fah luselosla ke pacl kowos utyak nu we.
32You shall make no covenant with them or with their gods.
32Nik kowos oru kutena oakwuk ku yorolos, ku yurin god lalos.
33They must not remain in your land, lest they cause you to sin against Me. For if you serve their gods, it will surely be a snare to you.”
33Nik kowos lela mwet ingan in muta in facl suwos. Kowos fin lela, elos ac oru kowos in orekma koluk lainyu. Kowos fin alu nu sin god lalos, ac fah oana sie sruhf nu suwos.”
