Numbers 8
1 And the Lord spoke unto Moses, saying,
Waaqayyo Museedhaan akkana jedhe;
2 Speak unto Aaron, and say unto him, When thou lightest the lamps, then shall the seven lamps give light toward the body of the candlestick.
“Aroonitti akkana jedhii dubbadhu; ‘Yeroo ati ibsaawwan torban qabsiiftutti isaan iddoo baattuu ibsaa fuula dura jiru haa ibsan.’”
3 And Aaron did so; toward the body of the candlestick did he light its lamps; as the Lord had commanded Moses.
Aroonis akkasuma godhe; innis akkuma Waaqayyo Musee ajajetti akka isaan fuula baattuu ibsaa duraan ifa kennaniif ibsaawwan sana qabsiise.
4 And this was the workmanship of the candlestick: It was of beaten gold, from the shaft thereof, unto the flowers thereof, it was beaten work; according unto the pattern which the Lord had shown Moses, so made he the candlestick.
Akki itti baattuun ibsaa tolfame akkana: Miilla isaa irraa jalqabee hamma daraaraa isaatti warqee tumame irraa hojjetame. Baattuun ibsaa sun akkuma fakkeenya Waaqayyo Museetti argisiise sanaatti hojjetame.
5 And the Lord spoke unto Moses, saying,
Waaqayyo Museedhaan akkana jedhe:
6 Take the Levites from the midst of the children of Israel, and cleanse them.
“Saba Israaʼel keessaa Lewwota fuudhii qulqulleessi.
7 And thus shalt thou do unto them, to cleanse them: Sprinkle upon them water of purification, after they have let the razor pass over all their flesh, and then let them wash their clothes, and so shall they be clean.
Isaan qulqulleessuufis waan kana godhi: bishaan qulqullaaʼummaa isaanitti facaasi; akka isaan dhagna isaanii guutuu haaddatanii akkasiin uffata ofii miiccatanii of qulqulleessan godhi.
8 And they shall take a young bullock with his meat-offering, fine flour mingled with oil; and another young bullock shalt thou take for a sin-offering.
Isaanis dibicha loonii tokko kennaa midhaanii kan daakuu bullaaʼaa zayitiidhaan sukkuumame wajjin haa fuudhan; atis dibicha loonii lammaffaa aarsaa cubbuutiif fuudhi.
9 And thou shalt bring near the Levites before the tabernacle of the congregation: and thou shalt assemble together the whole congregation of the children of Israel.
Lewwota fuula dunkaana wal gaʼii duratti dhiʼeessiitii waldaa Israaʼelootaa guutuu walitti qabi.
10 And when thou hast brought near the Levites before the Lord, then shall the children of Israel lay their hands upon the Levites:
Lewwotas fuula Waaqayyoo duratti dhiʼeessi; sabni Israaʼel harka isaanii Lewwota irra haa kaaʼan.
11 And Aaron shall make with the Levites a waving before the Lord from the children of Israel, that they may be ready to execute the service of the Lord.
Aroonis akka Lewwonni Waaqayyo tajaajiluu dandaʼaniif saba Israaʼel keessaa aarsaa sochoofamu godhee fuula Waaqayyoo duratti isaan haa dhiʼeessu.
12 And the Levites shall lay their hands upon the heads of the bullocks: and thou shalt prepare the one as a sin-offering, and the other as a burnt-offering, unto the Lord, to make an atonement for the Levites.
“Erga Lewwonni harka isaanii mataa jiboota sanaa irra kaaʼanii booddee ati Lewwotaaf araaraa buusuudhaaf dibicha tokko aarsaa cubbuu, kaan immoo aarsaa gubamu godhiitii Waaqayyoof dhiʼeessi.
13 And thou shalt place the Levites before Aaron and before his sons, and make with them a waving before the Lord.
Akka Lewwonni fuula Aroonii fi fuula ilmaan isaa dura dhaabatan godhi; ergasiis aarsaa sochoofamu godhiitii Waaqayyotti isaan dhiʼeessi.
14 Thus shalt thou separate the Levites from the midst of the children of Israel: and the Levites shall be mine.
Haala kanaan Israaʼeloota kaan keessaa Lewwota addaan baasi; Lewwonnis kan koo haa taʼan.
15 And after that shall the Levites go in to do the service of the tabernacle of the congregation: after thou shalt have cleansed them, and made with them a waving.
“Erga ati Lewwota qulqulleessitee aarsaa sochoofamu gootee isaan dhiʼeessitee booddees isaan hojii dunkaana wal gaʼii hojjechuuf haa dhufan.
16 For they are wholly given unto me from the midst of the children of Israel: instead of every one that openeth the womb, of every first-born of the children of Israel, have I taken them unto me.
Isaan Israaʼeloota keessaa guutumaan guutuutti naaf kennamuu qabu. Ani qooda hangafa saba Israaʼel kan gadameessa saaqu hundaa Lewwota ofii kootiif fudhadheera.
17 For mine are all the first-born of the children of Israel, both of man and beast: on the day that I smote every first-born in the land of Egypt did I sanctify them unto myself.
Israaʼel keessaa dhiirri hangafni hundi namas taʼu horiin kan koo ti. Ani yeroon biyya Gibxi keessatti hangafa hunda ajjeese sana ofii kootiifan addaan isaan baafadhe.
18 And I have taken the Levites, instead of all the first-born among the children of Israel.
Ani qooda ilmaan Israaʼel hangafoota hundaa Lewwota fudhadheera.
19 And I have given the Levites as a gift to Aaron and to his sons from the midst of the children of Israel, to do the service of the children of Israel in the tabernacle of the congregation, and to make an atonement for the children of Israel; that there be no plague among the children of Israel, when the children of Israel come nigh unto the sanctuary.
Yommuu Israaʼeloonni iddoo qulqulluutti dhiʼaatanitti akka dhaʼichi isaan hin arganneef, akka isaan Israaʼelootaaf araara buusanii fi akka isaan tajaajila Israaʼelootaa dunkaana wal gaʼii keessatti raawwataniif ani Lewwota saba Israaʼel hunda keessaa Aroonii fi ilmaan isaatiif kennaa godhee kenneera.”
20 And so did Moses, and Aaron, and all the congregation of the children of Israel, to the Levites: according unto all that the Lord had commanded Moses concerning the Levites, so did the children of Israel unto them.
Museen, Aroonii fi waldaan Israaʼel guutuun akkuma Waaqayyo Musee ajaje sana Lewwotas godhan.
21 And the Levites purified themselves, and they washed their clothes; and Aaron made with them a waving before the Lord: and Aaron made an atonement for them to cleanse them.
Lewwonnis of qulqulleessanii wayyaa ofii miiccatan. Aroonis akkuma aarsaa sochoofamuutti fuula Waaqayyoo duratti isaan dhiʼeesse; isaan qulqulleessuufis araara isaaniif buuse.
22 And after that went the Levites in to do their service in the tabernacle of the congregation before Aaron, and before his sons: as the Lord had commanded Moses concerning the Levites, so did they unto them.
Ergasii Lewwonni qajeelcha Aroonii fi ilmaan isaatiin hojii dunkaana wal gaʼii hojjechuudhaaf dhufan. Isaanis akkuma Waaqayyo Musee ajaje sana Lewwotas godhan.
23 And the Lord spoke unto Moses, saying,
Waaqayyo Museedhaan akkana jedhe;
24 This shall be the rule for the Levites: From twenty and five years old and upward shall he go into the ranks to do the service of the tabernacle of the congregation;
“Kun seera Lewwotaaf kennamee dha: Dhiironni umuriin isaanii waggaa digdamii shanii fi hammasii olii hojii dunkaana wal gaʼii keessatti hirmaachuuf haa dhufan;
25 And from the age of fifty years shall he go out of the ranks of the service, and he shall serve no more;
umurii waggaa shantamaatti garuu tajaajila isaanii haa dhaaban; deebiʼaniis hin tajaajilin.
26 But he shall wait on his brethren in the tabernacle of the congregation, to keep the charge, but the service shall he not perform; thus shalt thou do unto the Levites in the discharge of their office.
Hojii dunkaana wal gaʼii irratti obboloota ofii gargaaruu ni dandaʼu; ofii isaaniitii garuu hojii sana hin hojjetin. Egaa kun haala itti ati itti gaafatama Lewwotaa ramadduu dha.”
