Deuteronomy 18
1 The priests and the Levites—all the tribe of Levi—shall have no portion nor inheritance with Israel. They shall eat the offerings of the LORD made by fire and his portion.
Tsy hanañ’anjara ndra lova am’ Israele ao o mpisoroñe nte-Levio ndra i hene fifokoa’ i Leviy. Fe ho kamae’ iereo ze soroñañe am’ Iehovà, naho ze mete ho anjara’e.
2 They shall have no inheritance among their brothers. The LORD is their inheritance, as he has spoken to them.
Tsy hanan-dova amo rolongo’eo iereo fa Iehovà ro lova’ iareo, amy nitsara’ey.
3 This shall be the priests’ due from the people, from those who offer a sacrifice, whether it be ox or sheep, that they shall give to the priest: the shoulder, the two cheeks, and the inner parts.
Zao ty anjara’o mpisoroñeo boak’ am’ ondatio, hirik’ amo mañenga soroñeo ke bania ke añondry: hatolo’ iereo amy mpisoroñey ty sokataña’e, o valañorà’eo naho ty tsimarano’e.
4 You shall give him the first fruits of your grain, of your new wine, and of your oil, and the first of the fleece of your sheep.
Ty lengom-boa’ o mahakama’oo naho ty divai’o naho ty mena’o vaho ty valoham-bolo’ o añondri’oo ty hatolo’o aze.
5 For the LORD your God has chosen him out of all your tribes to stand to minister in the LORD’s name, him and his sons forever.
Amy t’ie jinobo’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’o amo fifokoa’o iabio hijohaña’e hitoroñe nainai’e amy tahina’ Iehovày, ie naho o tarira’eo.
6 If a Levite comes from any of your gates out of all Israel where he lives, and comes with all the desire of his soul to the place which the LORD shall choose,
Aa naho miavotse an-drova’o ndra aia’aia e Israele ao amy nañialoa’ey, t’i nte-Levy, hionjomb’ amy toetse ho joboñe’ Iehovày mb’eo an-kaliforam-pisalalàn-tro’e;
7 then he shall minister in the name of the LORD his God, as all his brothers the Levites do, who stand there before the LORD.
le ie ro hitoroñe amy tahina’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’ey hambañe amo longo’e nte-Levy mpijohañe añatrefa’ Iehovào.
8 They shall have like portions to eat, in addition to that which comes from the sale of his family possessions.
Hanañ’ anjara mahakama mira am’ iereo re, ho tovo’ ze rinambe’e ami’ty nandetaha’e i lovan-droae’ey.
9 When you have come into the land which the LORD your God gives you, you shall not learn to imitate the abominations of those nations.
Ie mivotrak’ an-tane’ atolo’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’o azo, ko tsikombe’o o sata mampangorì’ o fifeheañeoo.
10 There shall not be found with you anyone who makes his son or his daughter to pass through the fire, one who uses divination, one who tells fortunes, or an enchanter, or a sorcerer,
Tsy ho oniñe ama’ areo ao ty mpampitoañ’ ana-dahy ndra anak’ ampela añ’afo ao, ndra ty mpisikily, ndra ty mpitoky vìlañe, ndra ty mpañori-binta ndra ty mpamoreke
11 or a charmer, or someone who consults with a familiar spirit, or a wizard, or a necromancer.
ndra ty jinilahy, ndra ty mpampizèke, ndra ty aman-kokolampa, ndra ty mpañontane lolo.
12 For whoever does these things is an abomination to the LORD. Because of these abominations, the LORD your God drives them out from before you.
Amy te tiva am’ Iehovà ze manao izay; le i sata tiva rey ty anoiha’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’o iareo aolo’o mb’eo.
13 You shall be blameless with the LORD your God.
Mivañona am’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’o.
14 For these nations that you shall dispossess listen to those who practice sorcery and to diviners; but as for you, the LORD your God has not allowed you so to do.
Toe haoñe’ o rofoko ho tavane’o tane ty mpamoreke naho ty mpisikily, fa ihe, tsy hapo’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’o hanao izay.
15 The LORD your God will raise up to you a prophet from among you, of your brothers, like me. You shall listen to him.
Hampitroare’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’o ho azo ty mpitoky añivo’o ao, boak’ aman-drolongo’o, manahak’ ahy; ie ty ho haoñe’o;
16 This is according to all that you desired of the LORD your God in Horeb in the day of the assembly, saying, “Let me not hear again the LORD my God’s voice, neither let me see this great fire any more, that I not die.”
ty amo hene nihalalie’o am’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’o e Korebe añe amy andro i fivoribeiio ami’ty hoe: Ee tsy ho tsanoñeko ka ty fiarañanaña’ Iehovà Andrianañahareko ndra hahatrea o afo jabajaba roke, tsy hivetrahako.
17 The LORD said to me, “They have well said that which they have spoken.
Le inao ty natoi’ Iehovà ahy: Noko i entañe nitaroñe’ iereoy.
18 I will raise them up a prophet from among their brothers, like you. I will put my words in his mouth, and he shall speak to them all that I shall command him.
Aa le hatroako ho a’ iareo ty mpitoky hambañe ama’o boak’ amo longo’ iareoo; hajoko am-palie’e ao o fivolakoo le ho tsarae’e am’ iereo ze afantoko ama’e.
19 It shall happen, that whoever will not listen to my words which he shall speak in my name, I will require it of him.
Ie amy zao, hanañako kabò ze tsy mañaoñe o fivolako ho tsarae’e ami’ty añarakoo.
20 But the prophet who speaks a word presumptuously in my name, which I have not commanded him to speak, or who speaks in the name of other gods, that same prophet shall die.”
Le ze mpitoky mieva misaontsy ami’ty añarako ie tsy nililiako hisaontsy; he hivolañe ami’ty añaran’ drahare ila’e, le havetrake i mpitoky zay.
21 You may say in your heart, “How shall we know the word which the LORD has not spoken?”
Hera hatao’o ty hoe an-troke ao: Aia ty haharendreha’ay ty entañe tsy nisaontsie’ Iehovà?
22 When a prophet speaks in the LORD’s name, if the thing does not follow, nor happen, that is the thing which the LORD has not spoken. The prophet has spoken it presumptuously. You shall not be afraid of him.
Naho misaontsy amy tahina’ Iehovà ty mpitoky f’ie tsy pok’eo mbore tsy mifetsake, le tsy nitsarae’ Iehovà i entañe zay. Nanao ty nisatri’e avao i mpitokiy, ko ihembaña’o.
