Exodus 23
1 Thou shalt not receiue a false tale, neyther shalt thou put thine hande with the wicked, to be a false witnes.
“Oduu sobaa hin odeessin; dhuga baʼuu jalʼaa kennuudhaan nama balleessaa hojjete hin gargaarin.
2 Thou shalt not follow a multitude to do euil, neither agree in a controuersie to decline after many and ouerthrowe the trueth.
“Waan hamaa hojjechuuf jettee nama baayʼee faana hin buʼin. Fuula seeraa duratti yommuu dhugaa baatu, gara nama baayʼee gortee murtii hin jalʼisin;
3 Thou shalt not esteeme a poore man in his cause.
murtii irratti hiyyeessaaf hin loogin.
4 If thou meete thine enemies oxe, or his asse going astray, thou shalt bring him to him againe.
“Yoo sangaa yookaan harree diina keetii kan baduutti jiru argite deebisii geessiif.
5 If thou see thine enemies asse lying vnder his burden, wilt thou cease to helpe him? thou shalt helpe him vp againe with it.
Yoo harree nama si jibbu tokkoo utuu isheen baʼaa baattee kuftee jirtuu argite achitti hin dhiisin; isa gargaarii ol kaasi.
6 Thou shalt not ouerthrowe the right of thy poore in his sute.
“Murtii irratti hiyyeessa saba keetii jalaa murtii hin dabsin.
7 Thou shalt keepe thee farre from a false matter, and shalt not slaye the innocent and the righteous: for I will not iustifie a wicked man.
Himata sobaa keessatti hin hirmaatin; waan ani nama balleessaa hojjete hin qulqulleessineef nama yakka hin qabne yookaan nama qajeelaa hin ajjeesin.
8 Thou shalt take no gift: for the gift blindeth the wise, and peruerteth the wordes of the righteous.
“Ati mattaʼaa hin fudhatin; mattaʼaan ogeeyyii ni jaamsaatii; dubbii qajeeltotaas jalʼisa.
9 Thou shalt not oppresse a stranger: for ye knowe the heart of a stranger, seeing yee were strangers in the land of Egypt.
“Alagaa hin cunqursin; isin waan biyya Gibxiitti alagaa turtaniif alagaa taʼuun maal akka taʼe isin mataan keessan ni beektuutii.
10 Moreouer, sixe yeres thou shalt sowe thy land, and gather the fruites thereof,
“Waggaa jaʼa lafa qotiisaa kee facaafadhu; midhaanis galfadhu;
11 But the seuenth yeere thou shalt let it rest and lie still, that the poore of thy people may eat, and what they leaue, the beastes of the fielde shall eate. In like maner thou shalt doe with thy vineyard, and with thine oliue trees.
waggaa torbaffaatti garuu lafa sana boqochiisi malee hin qotin. Akkasiin hiyyeeyyiin saba keetii laficha irraa nyaata argatu; waan isaan irraa hafe immoo bineensi haa nyaatu. Muka wayinii keetiitii fi muka ejersa keetiis akkasuma godhi.
12 Sixe dayes thou shalt do thy worke, and in the seuenth day thou shalt rest, that thine oxe, and thine asse may rest, and the sonne of thy maide and the stranger may be refreshed.
“Guyyaa jaʼa hojii kee hojjetadhu; akka sangaan keetii fi harreen kee boqotaniif, akka garbichi mana keetti dhalatee fi alagaan aara galfataniif guyyaa torbafaatti hin hojjetin.
13 And ye shall take heede to all things that I haue sayde vnto you: and ye shall make no mention of the name of other gods, neither shall it be heard out of thy mouth.
“Waan ani isinitti hime hunda eegaa; maqaa waaqota biraa hin waammatinaa; afaan keessanii iyyuu hin baʼin.
14 Three times thou shalt keepe a feast vnto me in the yeere.
“Ati waggaatti yeroo sadii ayyaana naa ayyaaneffadhu.
15 Thou shalt keepe the feast of vnleauened bread: thou shalt eate vnleauened bread seue dayes, as I commanded thee, in the season of the moneth of Abib: for in it thou camest out of Egypt: and none shall appeare before me emptie:
“Ayyaana Maxinoo Ayyaaneffadhu; akkuma ani si ajaje sana bultii torba Maxinoo nyaadhu. Waan kanas jiʼa Abiibii keessa yeroo murtaaʼetti godhi; ati jiʼa sana keessa Gibxii baateetii. “Namni tokko iyyuu harka duwwaa fuula koo duratti hin dhiʼaatin.
16 The feast also of the haruest of the first fruites of thy labours, which thou hast sowen in the fielde: and the feast of gathering fruites in the ende of the yere, when thou hast gathered in thy labours out of the fielde.
“Mataa midhaan keetii kan lafa qotiisaa keetti facaafatteen Ayyaana Galchaa Midhaanii ayyaaneffadhu. “Dhuma waggaatti yeroo midhaan kee lafa qotiisaa irraa walitti qabattutti Ayyaana Galchaa Midhaanii ayyaaneffadhu.
17 These three times in the yeere shall all thy men children appeare before the Lord Iehouah.
“Dhiirri hundi waggaatti yeroo sadii fuula Waaqayyoo Gooftaa duratti haa dhiʼaatu.
18 Thou shalt not offer the blood of my sacrifice with leauened bread: neyther shall the fatte of my sacrifice remayne vntill the morning.
“Dhiiga aarsaa waan raacitii qabu wajjin naa hin dhiʼeessin. “Coomni aarsaa ayyaana koos hamma bariitti hin turin.
19 The first of the first fruites of thy lande thou shalt bring into the house of the Lord thy God: yet shalt thou not seeth a kid in his mothers milke.
“Mataa midhaan lafa keetii keessaa filatamaa isaa gara mana Waaqayyo Waaqa keetii fidi. “Ilmoo reʼee aannan haadha isheetiin hin affeelin.
20 Behold, I send an Angel before thee, to keepe thee in the way, and to bring thee to the place which I haue prepared.
“Akka inni karaa irratti si eegee iddoo ani qopheessetti si galchuuf kunoo ani fuula kee dura ergamaa koo tokko nan erga.
21 Beware of him, and heare his voyce, and prouoke him not: for he will not spare your misdeedes, because my name is in him.
Xiyyeeffadhuutii waan inni jedhu dhaggeeffadhu. Isatti hin fincilin; inni waan Maqaa koo of irraa qabuuf fincila kee siif hin dhiisuutii.
22 But if thou hearken vnto his voyce, and do all that I speake, the I wil be an enemie vnto thine enemies, and will afflict them that afflict thee.
Yoo ati waan inni jedhu akka gaarii dhaggeeffatee waan ani dubbadhu hunda goote, ani diinota keetti diina nan taʼa; warra siin mormaniinis nan morma.
23 For mine Angel shall go before thee, and bring thee vnto the Amorites, and the Hittites, and the Perizzites, and the Canaanites, the Hiuites, and the Iebusites, and I will destroy them.
Ergamaan koos fuula kee dura deemee biyya Amoorotaatti, Heetotaatti, Feerzotaatti, Kanaʼaanotaatti, Hiiwotaattii fi Yebuusotaatti si galcha; anis jara nan balleessa.
24 Thou shalt not bow downe to their gods, neither serue them, nor doe after the workes of them: but vtterly ouerthrowe them, and breake in pieces their images.
Waaqota isaaniitiif hin sagadin; hin waaqeffatinis; hojii isaanii faanas hin buʼin. Ati isaan balleessitee soodduu waaqeffannaa isaanii illee caccabsuu qabda.
25 For ye shall serue the Lord your God, and he shall blesse thy bread and thy water, and I will take all sickenes away from the middes of thee.
Waaqayyo Waaqa kee waaqeffadhu; innis midhaan keetii fi bishaan kee ni eebbisa. Dhukkubas isin gidduudhaa nan balleessa;
26 There shall none cast their fruite nor be baren in thy lande: the number of thy dayes will I fulfill.
biyya kee keessatti dubartiin ulfi irraa baʼu yookaan dhabduun tokko iyyuu hin argamtu. Jireenya guutuus siif nan kenna.
27 I will send my feare before thee, and will destroy all the people among whome thou shalt go: and I will make all thine enemies turne their backes vnto thee:
“Ani sodaachisuu koo si dura ergee saba ati itti dhuftu hunda nan burjaajessa. Akka diinonni kee hundinuu dugda sitti galanii baqatanis nan godha.
28 And I will sende hornets before thee, which shall driue out the Hiuites, the Canaanites, and the Hittites from thy face.
Akka inni Hiiwota, Kanaʼaanotaa fi Heetota karaa kee irraa ariʼuuf ani si duraan sonsa nan erga.
29 I will not cast them out from thy face in one yeere, least the land grow to a wildernes: and the beasts of the field multiplie against thee.
Akka lafti onee bineensi wal horee sitti hin baayʼanneef ani waggaa tokko keessatti saba kana si duraa ariʼee hin baasu.
30 By litle and litle I will driue them out from thy face, vntill thou increase, and inherite the lande.
Hamma ati baayʼattee biyyattii dhaaltutti ani xinnoo xinnoon fuula kee duraa isaan nan baasa.
31 And I will make thy coastes from the red sea vnto the sea of the Philistims, and from the desert vnto the Riuer: for I will deliuer the inhabitants of the lande into your hande, and thou shalt driue them out from thy face.
“Anis daarii kee Galaana Diimaadhaa jalqabee hamma Galaana Filisxeemiitti, lafa alootii jalqabee hamma Laga Efraaxiisiitti siifin dhaaba. Namoota biyya sana jiraatanis dabarsee harka keetti nan kenna; ati immoo of duraa ariitee isaan baafta.
32 Thou shalt make no couenant with them, nor with their gods:
Ati isaan wajjin yookaan waaqota isaanii wajjin kakuu tokko illee hin galin.
33 Neither shall they dwell in thy lande, least they make thee sinne against me: for if thou serue their gods, surely it shall be thy destruction.
Akka isaan biyya kee keessa jiraatan hin eeyyamaniif; yoo akkas taʼe isaan akka ati cubbuu natti hojjettu si godhu; ati waaqota isaanii waaqeffannaan kun dhugumaan kiyyoo sitti taʼaatii.”
