Deuteronomy 14
1 You are sons of the LORD your God; do not cut yourselves or shave your foreheads on behalf of the dead,
Zanak’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrareo ianareo, koa aza mitetika ny tenanareo, na manaratra ny eo ambonin’ ny handrinareo noho ny amin’ ny maty.
2 for you are a people holy to the LORD your God. The LORD has chosen you to be a people for His prized possession out of all the peoples on the face of the earth.
Fa firenena masìna ho an’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrao ianao ka voafidiny ho rakitra soa ho Azy mihoatra noho ny firenena rehetra ambonin’ ny tany.
3 You must not eat any detestable thing.
Aza mihinana izay fahavetavetana.
4 These are the animals that you may eat: The ox, the sheep, the goat,
Izao no biby izay ho fihinanareo: Ny omby sy ny ondry sy ny osy
5 the deer, the gazelle, the roe deer, the wild goat, the ibex, the antelope, and the mountain sheep.
sy ny diera, ny gazela, ny kapreola, ny osi-dia, ny pygarga, ny antilopa ary ny ropikapra:
6 You may eat any animal that has a split hoof divided in two and that chews the cud.
izay biby rehetra mivaky kitro, ka misaraka tsara ny kitrony sady mandinika, no ho fihinanareo.
7 But of those that chew the cud or have a completely divided hoof, you are not to eat the following: the camel, the rabbit, or the rock badger. Although they chew the cud, they do not have a divided hoof. They are unclean for you,
Nefa amin’ izay mandinika na mivaky kitro dia izao ihany kosa no tsy ho fihinanareo: Ny rameva sy ny rà bitro ary ny hyraka, satria mandinika ihany izy, fa tsy mivaky kitro; maloto aminareo izy;
8 as well as the pig; though it has a divided hoof, it does not chew the cud. It is unclean for you. You must not eat its meat or touch its carcass.
ary ny kisoa koa, satria mivaky kitro izy, fa tsy mandinika, maloto aminareo izy; ny henan ireny tsy ho fihinanareo, ary ny fatiny tsy hokasihinareo.
9 Of all the creatures that live in the water, you may eat anything with fins and scales,
Ary amin’ izay rehetra ao anatin’ ny rano dia izao no ho fihinanareo: izay rehetra misy vombony sy kirany no ho fihinanareo;
10 but you may not eat anything that does not have fins and scales; it is unclean for you.
fa izay rehetra tsy misy vombony sy kirany kosa dia tsy ho fihinanareo; maloto aminareo izy.
11 You may eat any clean bird,
Ny vorona madio rehetra no ho fihinanareo.
12 but these you may not eat: the eagle, the bearded vulture, the black vulture,
Nefa izao kosa no tsy ho fihinanareo: ny voltora sy ny gypa sy ny ankoay
13 the red kite, the falcon, any kind of kite,
ary ny papango sy ny voromahery sy ny papango mainty, samy araka ny karazany, avy
14 any kind of raven,
ary ny goaika rehetra, samy araka ny karazany avy,
15 the ostrich, the screech owl, the gull, any kind of hawk,
ary ny ostritsa sy ny tararaka sy ny vorondriaka ary ny hitsikitsika, samy araka ny karazany avy,
16 the little owl, the great owl, the white owl,
ary ny vorondolo sy ny vorondolo lehibe sy ny ibisa
17 the desert owl, the osprey, the cormorant,
ary ny sama sy ny voltora madinika sy ny manarana
18 the stork, any kind of heron, the hoopoe, or the bat.
ary ny vano sy ny vanobe, samy araka ny karazany avy, ary ny takidara sy ny manavy.
19 All flying insects are unclean for you; they may not be eaten.
Ary ny zava-mandady rehetra izay manana elatra dia haloto aminareo ka tsy ho fihinanareo.
20 But you may eat any clean bird.
Ny zava-manana elatra izay madio no ho fihinanareo.
21 You are not to eat any carcass; you may give it to the foreigner residing within your gates, and he may eat it, or you may sell it to a foreigner. For you are a holy people belonging to the LORD your God. You must not cook a young goat in its mother’s milk.
Aza homana izay maty ho azy, fa omeo ho an’ ny vahiny izay ao an-tanànanao izany mba hohaniny, na amidio amin’ ny olona hafa firenena; fa firenena masìna ho an’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrao ianao. Aza mahandro zanak’ osy amin’ ny rononon-dreniny.
22 You must be sure to set aside a tenth of all the produce brought forth each year from your fields.
Aloavy tsara ny ampahafolon’ ny vokatra rehetra avy amin’ ny voa nafafinao, dia ny vokatra any an-tsaha isan-taona;
23 And you are to eat a tenth of your grain, new wine, and oil, and the firstborn of your herds and flocks, in the presence of the LORD your God at the place He will choose as a dwelling for His Name, so that you may learn to fear the LORD your God always.
dia aoka ho eo anatrehan’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrao eo amin’ ny tany izany hofidiny hampitoerany ny anarany no hihinananao ny ampahafolon’ ny varinao sy ny ranom-boalobokao sy ny diloilonao ary ny voalohan-teraky ny ombinao sy ny ondry aman’ osinao, mba hianaranao hatahotra an’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrao mandrakariva.
24 But if the distance is too great for you to carry that with which the LORD your God has blessed you, because the place where the LORD your God will choose to put His Name is too far away,
Fa raha lavitra loatra ny lalana halehanao ka tsy mahatondra izany zavatra izany ianao, satria lavitra anao loatra ny tany izay hofidin’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrao hampitoerany ny anarany, raha notahin’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrao ianao,
25 then exchange it for money, take the money in your hand, and go to the place the LORD your God will choose.
dia hamidinao vola izany, ary hofonosinao ny vola ka ho entinao eo an-tananao hankany amin’ ny tany izay hofidin’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrao;
26 Then you may spend the money on anything you desire: cattle, sheep, wine, strong drink, or anything you wish. You are to feast there in the presence of the LORD your God and rejoice with your household.
ary ny vola dia amidio izay rehetra tian’ ny fanahinao, na omby, na ondry, na osy, na divay, na toaka, na izay zavatra hafa tian’ ny fanahinao; ary aoka ho eo anatrehan’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrao no hihinananao izany sy hifalianao mbamin’ ny ankohonanao;
27 And do not neglect the Levite within your gates, since he has no portion or inheritance among you.
ary ny Levita izay ao an-tanànanao dia aza foinao; fa tsy manana anjara na lova eo aminao izy.
28 At the end of every three years, bring a tenth of all your produce for that year and lay it up within your gates.
Ary isan-telo taona dia alao ny ampahafolon’ ny vokatrao rehetra amin’ izany taona izany, ka ataovy ao an-tanànanao;
29 Then the Levite (because he has no portion or inheritance among you), the foreigner, the fatherless, and the widow within your gates may come and eat and be satisfied. And the LORD your God will bless you in all the work of your hands.
ary dia aoka ho avy ny Levita (satria tsy mba manana anjara na lova eo aminao izy) sy ny vahiny sy ny kamboty ary ny mpitondratena izay ao an-tanànanao, dia hihinana izy ka ho voky, mba hotahin’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrao ianao amin’ ny asan-tananao rehetra izay ataonao.
