< Exodus 32 >

1 And when the people saw that Moses delayed to come down from the mountain, the people collected together to Aaron, and said to him, Up, make us a god, who will go before us; for this Moses, the man that has brought us up out of the land of Egypt, — we do not know what is become of him!
Sabni sunis yommuu akka Museen tulluu irra ture argetti Aroonin marsee, “Musee namicha biyya Gibxiitii baasee nu fide sana waan inni taʼe hin beeknuutii kaʼii waaqota nu dura deeman nuu tolchi” jedhe.
2 And Aaron said to them, Break off the golden rings that are in the ears of your wives, of your sons, and of your daughters, and bring [them] to me.
Aroon immoo, “Warqee gurraa kan niitonni keessan, ilmaan keessanii fi intallan keessan keeyyatan irraa baasaatii natti fidaa” jedhee deebiseef.
3 Then all the people broke off the golden rings that were in their ears, and brought [them] to Aaron.
Namoonni hundinuu warqee gurra isaanii of irraa baasanii Aroonitti fidan.
4 And he took [them] out of their hand, and fashioned it with a chisel and made of it a molten calf: and they said, This is thy god, Israel, who has brought thee up out of the land of Egypt!
Innis warqee sana isaan harkaa fuudhee miʼa ittiin hojjetaniin baqsee Waaqa tolfamaa bifa jabbiitiin hojjetame tokko tolche; isaanis, “Yaa Israaʼel isaan kunneen waaqota kee warra biyya Gibxiitii si baasanii dha” jedhan.
5 And Aaron saw [it], and built an altar before it; and Aaron made a proclamation, and said, To-morrow is a feast to Jehovah!
Aroonis yommuu waan kana argetti fuula jabbii sanaa duratti iddoo aarsaa ijaaree, “Bori Waaqayyoof ayyaanni ni ayyaaneffama” jedhee labse.
6 And they rose up early on the morrow, and offered up burnt-offerings, and brought peace-offerings; and the people sat down to eat and to drink, and rose up to sport.
Isaanis guyyaa itti aanu ganama bariin kaʼanii, aarsaa gubamu dhiʼeessanii aarsaa nagaas fidan. Kana irratti nyaachuu fi dhuguuf tataaʼan; sirbuufis kaʼan.
7 Then Jehovah said to Moses, Away, go down! for thy people, which thou hast brought out of the land of Egypt, is acting corruptly.
Waaqayyo Museedhaan akkana jedhe; “Sabni kee kan ati biyya Gibxiitii baaftee fidde sun xuraaʼeeraatii gad buʼi.
8 They have turned aside quickly out of the way that I commanded them: they have made themselves a molten calf, and have bowed down to it, and have sacrificed thereunto, and said, This is thy god, Israel, who has brought thee up out of the land of Egypt!
Isaan dafanii karaa ani isaan ajaje irraa jalʼataniiru; Waaqa tolfamaa bifa jabbiitiin baqfamee qopheeffame illee ofii isaaniitiif tolfatanii aarsaa dhiʼeessaniifii, ‘Yaa Israaʼel isaan kunneen waaqota kee warra biyya Gibxiitii si baasanii dha’ jedhanii isa waaqeffataniiru.
9 And Jehovah said to Moses, I see this people, and behold, it is a stiff-necked people.
“Waaqayyo Museedhaan akkana jedhe; ‘Kunoo, ani akka sabni kun mata jabeessa taʼe argeera.
10 And now let me alone, that my anger may burn against them, and I may consume them; and I will make of thee a great nation.
Kanaafuu akka aariin koo isaanitti bobaʼuu fi akka ani isaan balleessuuf na dhiisi. Yommus ani saba guddaa si taasisa.’”
11 And Moses besought Jehovah his God, and said, Why, Jehovah, doth thy wrath burn against thy people, which thou hast brought forth out of the land of Egypt with great power and with a strong hand?
Museen garuu fuula gargaarsa Waaqayyo Waaqa isaa barbaaddate; akkanas jedhe; “Yaa Waaqayyo, dheekkamsi kee maaliif saba kee warra ati humna guddaa fi irree jabaadhaan biyya Gibxiitii baafte sanatti bobaʼa?
12 Why should the Egyptians speak, and say, For misfortune he has brought them out, to slay them on the mountains, and to annihilate them from the face of the earth? Turn from the heat of thine anger, and repent of this evil against thy people!
Warri Gibxii maaliif, ‘Inni duruma iyyuu yaada hamaadhaan tulluuwwan irratti isaan fixuu fi lafa irraa isaan balleessuuf Gibxii isaan baasee?’ jedhu. Aarii kee bobaʼaa sana irraa deebiʼi; obsis; saba keettis badiisa hin fidin.
13 Remember Abraham, Isaac and Israel, thy servants, to whom thou sworest by thyself, and saidst to them, I will multiply your seed as the stars of heaven, and all this land that I have spoken of will I give to your seed, and they shall possess [it] for ever!
Garboota kee Abrahaam, Yisihaaqii fi Israaʼelin warra, ‘Ani sanyii kee akka urjiiwwan samii irraa nan baayʼisa; lafa ani waadaa isaaniif seene kana hundas sanyii keessaniif nan kenna; isaanis bara baraan lafa sana ni dhaalu’ jettee maqaa keetiin kakatteef sana yaadadhu.”
14 And Jehovah repented of the evil that he had said he would do to his people.
Kana irratti Waaqayyo yaada geeddaratee badiisa saba isaatti fiduuf ture sana dhiise.
15 And Moses turned and went down from the mountain, [with] the two tables of the testimony in his hand — tables written on both their sides: on this side and on that were they written.
Museenis gabateewwan kakuu lamaan sana harkatti qabatee deebiʼee tulluu irraa gad buʼe. Gabatee sana irrattis karaa lachuu, duraa duubaan barreeffamee ture.
16 And the tables [were] God's work, and the writing was God's writing, engraven on the tables.
Gabateewwan sanas Waaqatu hojjete; katabbiin sunis katabbii Waaqaa kan gabateewwan sana irratti soofamee barreeffamee dha.
17 And Joshua heard the noise of the people as they shouted, and said to Moses, There is a shout of war in the camp.
Iyyaasuunis yommuu waca namootaa dhagaʼetti Museedhaan, “Iddoo buufataa keessa sagalee waraanaatu jira” jedhe.
18 And he said, It is not the sound of a shout of victory, neither is it the sound of a shout of defeat: it is the noise of alternate singing I hear.
Museen immoo akkana jedhee deebise: “Sagaleen ani dhagaʼu kun sagalee sirbaati malee sagalee mooʼuu, yookaan sagalee moʼatamuu miti.”
19 And it came to pass, when he came near the camp, and saw the calf and the dancing, that Moses' anger burned, and he cast the tables out of his hands, and shattered them beneath the mountain.
Museenis akkuma iddoo qubataatti dhiʼaatee jabbii fi shuubbisa sana argeen aaree gubate; gabateewwan sana harka isaa irraa darbatee tulluu sana jalatti caccabse.
20 And he took the calf that they had made, and burned [it] with fire, and ground it to powder, and strewed [it] on the water, and made the children of Israel drink [it].
Innis jabbii jarri tolchan sana fuudhee ibiddaan gube; daakee bulleessees bishaanitti firfirsee Israaʼeloota obaase.
21 And Moses said to Aaron, What has this people done to thee, that thou hast brought so great a sin on them?
Museenis Arooniin, “Sabni kun maal si goonaan ati cubbuu guddaa akkasii keessa isaan buufte?” jedhe.
22 And Aaron said, Let not the anger of my lord burn! thou knowest the people, that they are [set] on mischief.
Aroon immoo deebisee akkana jedhe; “Yaa gooftaa ko, aartee hin gubatin; akka sabni kun gara hamminaatti jalʼatu atuu beekta.
23 And they said to me, Make us a god, who will go before us; for this Moses, the man that has brought us up out of the land of Egypt, we do not know what is become of him!
Isaan, ‘Musee namicha Gibxii baasee nu fide sana waan inni taʼe hin beeknuutii waaqota nu dura deeman nuu tolchi’ naan jedhan.
24 And I said to them, Who has gold? They broke [it] off, and gave [it] me, and I cast it into the fire, and there came out this calf.
Anis, ‘Namni warqee qabu of irraa haa baasu’ jedheen; isaanis warqee sana natti kennan; anis ibidda keessa nan buuse; inni immoo jabbii taʼee baʼe!”
25 And Moses saw the people how they were stripped; for Aaron had stripped them to [their] shame before their adversaries.
Museen akka sabni sun gad dhiisiitti jiraate, Aroonis akka isaan toʼannaadhaan ala taʼan akka godhee fi akka isaan diinota isaanii birattis waan kolfaa taʼan arge.
26 And Moses stood in the gate of the camp, and said, He that is for Jehovah, [let him come] to me. And all the sons of Levi gathered to him.
Kanaafuu Museen karra qubataa dura dhaabatee, “Mee warri gara Waaqayyo gortan hundi gara koo kottaa” jedhe. Lewwonni hundis isa biratti walitti qabaman.
27 And he said to them, Thus saith Jehovah, the God of Israel: Put every man his sword upon his hip; go and return from gate to gate through the camp, and slay every man his brother, and every man his friend, and every man his neighbour.
Ergasii inni akkana isaaniin jedhe; “Waaqayyo Waaqni Israaʼel akkana jedha; ‘Tokkoon tokkoon namaa mudhii isaatti goraadee haa hidhatu; tokkoon tokkoon namaas qubata sana keessa karra tokko irraa gara karra kaaniitti asii fi achi deemee obboloota isaa, michoota isaatii fi ollaa isaa haa ajjeesu.’”
28 And the sons of Levi did according to the word of Moses; and there fell of the people that day about three thousand men.
Lewwonnis akkuma Museen isaan ajaje godhan; guyyaa sana saba sana keessaa nama gara kuma sadiitu duʼe.
29 And Moses said, Consecrate yourselves to-day to Jehovah, yea, every man with his son, and with his brother, and bring on yourselves a blessing to-day.
Museenis, “Isin waan ilmaan keessanii fi obboloota keessanitti kaataniif harʼa Waaqayyoof addaan baafamtaniirtu; innis guyyaa harʼaa isin eebbiseera” jedhe.
30 And it came to pass the next day, that Moses said to the people, Ye have sinned a great sin. And now I will go up to Jehovah: perhaps I shall make atonement for your sin.
Museen guyyaa itti aanutti saba sanaan, “Isin cubbuu guddaa hojjettaniirtu. Garuu ani amma gara Waaqayyootti ol nan baʼa; tarii ani cubbuu keessaniif araara nan buusa taʼa” jedhe.
31 And Moses returned to Jehovah, and said, Alas, this people has sinned a great sin, and they have made themselves a god of gold!
Museenis deebiʼee gara Waaqayyoo dhaqee akkana jedhe; “Wayyoo! Sabni kun cubbuu akkam guddaa hojjete! Isaan ofii isaaniitiif waaqota warqee tolfataniiru.
32 And now, if thou wilt forgive their sin...but if not, blot me, I pray thee, out of thy book that thou hast written.
Taʼus maaloo amma cubbuu isaanii dhiisiif; yoo kanaa achi kitaaba barreessite sana keessaa maqaa koo haqi.”
33 And Jehovah said to Moses, Whoever hath sinned against me, him will I blot out of my book.
Waaqayyo immoo Museedhaan akkana jedhe; “Ani nama cubbuu natti hojjete kitaaba koo irraa nan haqa.
34 And now go, lead the people whither I have told thee: behold, my Angel shall go before thee; but in the day of my visiting I will visit their sin upon them.
Amma kaʼiitii gara lafa ani sitti hime sanaatti saba kana qajeelchi; kunoo ergamaan koos fuula kee dura ni deema. Garuu gaafa yeroon ani isaan adabu gaʼutti ani cubbuu isaaniitiif isaan nan adaba.”
35 And Jehovah smote the people, because they made the calf, which Aaron had made.
Sababii balleessaa isaan jabbii Aroon tolche sanaan hojjetaniitiif Waaqayyo balaadhaan saba sana dhaʼe.
