< Leviticus 19 >

1 And YHWH speaks to Moses, saying,
Waaqayyo Museedhaan akkana jedhe;
2 “Speak to all the congregation of the sons of Israel, and you have said to them: You are holy, because I, your God YHWH, [am] holy.
“Akkana jedhii waldaa saba Israaʼel hundatti himi; ‘Ani Waaqayyo Waaqni keessan qulqulluudhaatii isinis qulqulloota taʼaa.
3 You each fear his mother and his father, and you keep My Sabbaths; I [am] your God YHWH.
“‘Tokkoon tokkoon keessan haadha keessanii fi abbaa keessaniif ulfina kennaa; Sanbatoota koos eegaa. Ani Waaqayyo Waaqa keessan.
4 You do not turn to the idols, and you do not make a molten god for yourselves; I [am] your God YHWH.
“‘Gara waaqota tolfamootti hin deebiʼinaa yookaan sibiila baqfame irraa ofii keessaniif waaqota hin tolfatinaa. Ani Waaqayyo Waaqa keessan.
5 And when you sacrifice a sacrifice of peace-offerings to YHWH, you sacrifice it at your pleasure;
“‘Yommuu aarsaa nagaa Waaqayyoof dhiʼeessitanitti akka aarsaan keessan fudhatama isiniif argatu godhaatii dhiʼeessaa.
6 it is eaten in the day of your sacrificing [it], and on the next day, and that which is left to the third day is burned with fire,
Aarsaan isin dhiʼeessitanis guyyuma sana yookaan guyyaa itti aanu haa nyaatamu; garuu wanni hafee hamma guyyaa sadaffaatti ture haa gubamu.
7 and if it is really eaten on the third day, it [is] an abomination, it is not pleasing,
Waan kana keessaa tokko iyyuu yoo guyyaa sadaffaatti nyaatame xuraaʼaa dha; fudhatamas hin argatu.
8 and he who is eating it bears his iniquity, for he has defiled the holy thing of YHWH, and that person has been cut off from his people.
Namni waan sana nyaatu sababii waan Waaqayyoon qulqulleeffame xureesseef itti gaafatama; namichi sun saba isaa keessaa haa balleeffamu.
9 And in your reaping the harvest of your land you do not completely reap the corner of your field, and you do not gather the gleaning of your harvest,
“‘Yommuu oomisha lafa keessanii walitti qabattanitti hamma daariitti hin haaminaa; qarmii isaa illee hin funaannatinaa.
10 and you do not glean your vineyard, even the omitted part of your vineyard you do not gather, you leave them for the poor and for the sojourner; I [am] your God YHWH.
Qarmii iddoo dhaabaa wayinii keetii hin funaanin yookaan ija wayinii keetii kan harcaʼe hin funaanin. Hiyyeeyyii fi alagootaaf dhiisaa. Ani Waaqayyo Waaqa keessan.
11 You do not steal, nor feign, nor lie—each against his fellow.
“‘Hin hatinaa. “‘Hin sobinaa. “‘Walis hin gowwoomsinaa.
12 And you do not swear by My Name for falsehood, or you have defiled the Name of your God; I [am] YHWH.
“‘Sobaan maqaa kootiin hin kakatinaa; akkasiinis maqaa Waaqa keessanii hin xureessinaa. Ani Waaqayyo.
13 You do not oppress your neighbor, nor take plunder; the wages of the hired worker do not remain with you until morning.
“‘Ollaa kee gowwoomsitee waa irraa hin fudhatin yookaan hin saamin. “‘Mindaa nama qaxarame tokkoo hamma bariʼutti of bira hin bulchin.
14 You do not revile the deaf; and you do not put a stumbling block before the blind; and you have been afraid of your God; I [am] YHWH.
“‘Nama gurra duudaa hin abaarin yookaan nama jaamaa dura gufuu hin kaaʼin; garuu Waaqa kee sodaadhu. Ani Waaqayyo.
15 You do not do perversity in judgment; you do not lift up the face of the poor, nor honor the face of the great; you judge your fellow in righteousness.
“‘Murtii hin jalʼisinaa; nama wal caalchisuudhaan gara hiyyeessaa hin gorinaa; nama guddaafis hin looginaa; ollaa keetiif garuu murtii qajeelaa kenni.
16 You do not go slandering among your people; you do not stand against the blood of your neighbor; I [am] YHWH.
“‘Saba kee gidduutti hamii hin facaasin. “‘Waan jireenya ollaa keetii balaa irra buusu hin hojjetin. Ani Waaqayyo.
17 You do not hate your brother in your heart; you certainly reprove your fellow, and do not permit sin on him.
“‘Garaa keetti obboleessa kee hin jibbin; akka cubbuu isaa keessatti qooda hin qabaanneef ollaa kee ifaan ifatti itti dheekkami.
18 You do not take vengeance, nor watch the sons of your people; and you have had love for your neighbor as yourself; I [am] YHWH.
“‘Saba kee keessaa nama tokkotti iyyuu haaloo hin baʼin yookaan haaloo itti hin qabatin; ollaa kee garuu akkuma ofii keetiitti jaalladhu. Ani Waaqayyo.
19 You keep My statutes. You do not cause your livestock to mate [with] two kinds; you do not sow your field with two kinds; and a garment of two kinds, mixed material, does not go up on you.
“‘Sirna koo eegaa. “‘Horii gosa gosaa walitti hin diqaalomsinaa. “‘Midhaan gosa lama lafa qotiisaa keessanitti hin facaasinaa. “‘Wayyaa waan lama irraa hojjetame hin uffatinaa.
20 And when a man lies with a woman with seed [from] intercourse, and she [is] a maidservant, betrothed to a man, and not really ransomed, or freedom has not been given to her, there is an investigation; they are not put to death, for she [is] not free.
“‘Namni garbittii nama biraaf kaadhimamte kan hin furamin yookaan bilisummaan ishee hin kennaminiif wajjin yoo wal bira gaʼe isaan adabamuu qabu; taʼus waan dubartiin sun hin bilisoominiif isaan hin ajjeefamin.
21 And he has brought in his guilt-offering to YHWH, to the opening of the Tent of Meeting, a ram [for] a guilt-offering,
Namichi sun garuu korbeessa hoolaa tokko aarsaa yakkaatiif gara balbala dunkaana wal gaʼiitti Waaqayyoof haa fidu.
22 and the priest has made atonement for him with the ram of the guilt-offering before YHWH, for his sin which he has sinned, and it has been forgiven him because of his sin which he has sinned.
Lubichis korbeessa hoolaa aarsaa yakkaa sanaan cubbuu namichi hojjete sanaaf fuula Waaqayyoo duratti araara haa buusu; cubbuun namichaas ni dhiifamaaf.
23 And when you come into the land and have planted all [kinds] of trees [for] food, then you have reckoned its fruit as uncircumcised, it is uncircumcised to you [for] three years, it is not eaten,
“‘Isin yommuu biyyattiitti galtanii muka ija kennu kan gosa hundaa dhaabdanitti, akka waan iji isaa dhowwameetti fudhadhaa. Isin akka waan iji sun hamma waggaa sadiitti dhowwameetti ilaalaa; iji sun hin nyaatamin.
24 and in the fourth year all its fruit is holy—praises for YHWH.
Waggaa afuraffaatti immoo iji isaa hundinuu ni qulqullaaʼa; Waaqayyoofis aarsaa galataa taʼa.
25 And in the fifth year you eat its fruit—to add to you its increase; I [am] your God YHWH.
Waggaa shanaffaatti garuu ija isaa nyaachuu dandeessu. Haala kanaan oomishni keessan ni guddata. Ani Waaqayyo Waaqa keessan.
26 You do not eat with the blood. You do not enchant, nor observe clouds.
“‘Utuu dhiigni keessa jiruu foon kam iyyuu hin nyaatinaa. “‘Tolcha yookaan falfala hin hojjetinaa.
27 You do not round the corner of your head, nor destroy the corner of your beard.
“‘Rifeensa mataa keessanii naannessitanii hin haaddatinaa yookaan qarqara areeda keessaniis hin murmuratinaa.
28 And you do not put a cutting for the soul in your flesh; and a writing, a cross-mark, you do not put on yourself; I [am] YHWH.
“‘Nama duʼeef jettanii dhagna keessan hin mammadeessinaa yookaan mallattoo tumaa tokko illee of irratti hin tolfatinaa. Ani Waaqayyo.
29 You do not defile your daughter to cause her to go whoring, that the land does not go whoring, and the land has been full of wickedness.
“‘Akka lafti halalummaatti deebitee hamminaan hin guutamneef intala kee akka isheen ejjitu gochuudhaan ishee hin salphisin.
30 You keep My Sabbaths and you revere My sanctuary; I [am] YHWH.
“‘Sanbatoota koo eegaa; iddoo qulqulluu koos kabajaa. Ani Waaqayyo.
31 You do not turn to those having familiar spirits, and you do not seek for wizards, to become unclean by them; I [am] your God YHWH.
“‘Isin akka hin xuroofneef ilaaltota bira hin deeminaa yookaan warra ekeraa dubbisan hin barbaadinaa. Ani Waaqayyo Waaqa keessan.
32 You rise up at the presence of grey hairs, and you have honored the presence of an old man, and have been afraid of your God; I [am] YHWH.
“‘Warra dulloomaniif kaʼi; jaarsaaf ulfina kenni; Waaqa kee sodaadhu. Ani Waaqayyo.
33 And when a sojourner sojourns with you in your land, you do not oppress him;
“‘Yoo alagaan biyya keessan keessa isin wajjin jiraate isa hin cunqursinaa.
34 the sojourner who is sojourning with you is to you as a native among you, and you have had love for him as for yourself, for you have been sojourners in the land of Egypt; I [am] your God YHWH.
Alagaan isin gidduu jiraatu sun akka dhalataa biyya keessaniitti haa ilaalamu. Akka ofii keessaniitti isa jaalladhaa; isinis biyya Gibxitti alagoota turtaniitii. Ani Waaqayyo Waaqa keessan.
35 You do not do perversity in the judgment, in the measure, in the weight, and in the liquid measure;
“‘Isin yommuu dheerina, ulfinaa fi baayʼina wayii safartanitti madaalii gowwoomsaatti hin fayyadaminaa.
36 you have righteous balances, righteous weights, a righteous ephah, and a righteous hin; I [am] your God YHWH, who has brought you out from the land of Egypt;
Safartuu fi madaalii dhugaatti, iifii fi iinii dhugaatti fayyadamaa. Ani Waaqayyo Waaqa keessan kan biyya Gibxii baasee isin fidee dha.
37 and you have observed all my statutes, and all my judgments, and have done them; I [am] YHWH.”
“‘Ajajaa fi seera koo hunda eegaatii duukaa buʼaa. Ani Waaqayyo.’”
