Numbers 18
1 The LORD said to Aaron, "You and your sons and your fathers' house with you shall bear the iniquity of the sanctuary; and you and your sons with you shall bear the iniquity of your priesthood.
Waaqayyo Arooniin akkana jedhe; “Ati, ilmaan keetii fi maatiin abbaa keetii si wajjin yakka iddoo qulqulluutti hojjetametti ni gaafatamtu. Yakka lubummaatti hojjetame siʼii fi ilmaan kee qofatu itti gaafatama.
2 Your brothers also, the tribe of Levi, the tribe of your father, bring near with you, that they may be joined to you, and minister to you: but you and your sons with you shall be before the tent of the testimony.
Akka isaan yeroo atii fi ilmaan kee fuula dunkaana dhuga baʼumsaa duratti tajaajiltanitti sitti dabalamanii si gargaaraniif obboloota kee warra gosa Lewwii, warra gosa abbaa keetii sana fidi.
3 They shall keep your commands, and the duty of all the Tent: only they shall not come near to the vessels of the sanctuary and to the altar, that they not die, neither they, nor you.
Isaanis ajaja kee dhagaʼuudhaan hojiiwwan dunkaana keessaa hunda haa hojjetan; garuu miʼa iddoo qulqulluutti yookaan iddoo aarsaatti dhiʼaachuu hin qaban. Yoo akkas taʼe isaanis, atis ni duutu.
4 They shall be joined to you, and keep the responsibility of the Tent of Meeting, for all the service of the Tent: and a stranger shall not come near to you.
Isaanis dunkaana wal gaʼii eeguudhaaf isinitti dabalamuu qabu; hojii dunkaana sanaa hundas haa hojjetan. Namni biraa iddoo isin jirtanitti dhiʼaachuu hin qabu.
5 "You shall perform the duty of the sanctuary, and the duty of the altar; that there be no more wrath on the children of Israel.
“Isin akka dheekkamsi ammas Israaʼeloota irra hin buuneef eegumsa iddoo qulqulluutii fi eegumsa iddoo aarsaatti ni gaafatamtu.
6 And as for me, look, I have taken your brothers the Levites from among the children of Israel; they are a gift to you, given to the LORD, to do the service of the Tent of Meeting.
Ani mataan koo obboloota keessan Lewwota kennaawwan isinii kennaman godhee saba Israaʼel keessaa filadheera; isaanis akka hojii dunkaana wal gaʼii keessaa hojjetaniif Waaqayyoof kennamanii jiru.
7 You and your sons with you shall keep your priesthood for everything concerning the altar, and for that inside the veil; and you shall serve: I give you the priesthood as a service of gift: and the stranger who comes near shall be put to death."
Garuu hojii iddoo aarsaatii fi hojii golgaa keessaa hunda siʼii fi ilmaan kee qofatu hojjeta. Ani hojii lubummaa kennaa godhee isiniif nan kenna. Namni biraa kan iddoo qulqulluutti dhiʼaatu haa ajjeefamu.”
8 The LORD spoke to Aaron, "I, look, I have given you the command of my wave offerings, even all the holy things of the children of Israel; to you have I given them by reason of the anointing, and to your sons, as a portion forever.
Waaqayyo Arooniin akkana jedhe; “Ani mataan koo itti gaafatamaa aarsaawwan naa dhiʼeeffamanii si godheera; ani aarsaawwan qulqulluu Israaʼeloonni naaf dhiʼeessan hunda akka isaan bara baraan qoodaa fi gaʼee keessan taʼaniif siʼii fi ilmaan keetiif kenneera.
9 This shall be yours of the most holy things from the fire: every offering of theirs, even every meal offering of theirs, and every sin offering of theirs, and every trespass offering of theirs, which they shall render to me, shall be most holy for you and for your sons.
Kunis aarsaawwan waan hunda caalaa qulqulluu taʼan kanneen ibiddi hin tuqin keessaa qooda kee taʼa. Kennaawwan isaan aarsaawwan waan hunda caalaa qulqulluu taʼan godhanii naaf fidan jechuunis aarsaawwan midhaanii yookaan aarsaawwan cubbuu yookaan aarsaawwan yakkaa hunda keessaa qoodni sun kan keetii fi kan ilmaan keetii ti.
10 You shall eat of it like the most holy things. Every male shall eat of it. It shall be holy to you.
Isas iddoo iddoo hunda caalaa qulqulluu taʼetti nyaadhu; dhiirri hundi haa nyaatu; innis qulqulluu siif haa taʼu.
11 "This is yours, too: the wave offering of their gift, even all the wave offerings of the children of Israel. I have given them to you, and to your sons and to your daughters with you, as a portion forever. Everyone who is clean in your house shall eat of it.
“Wanni kunis kanuma kee ti; aarsaan sochoofamu kan kennaa saba Israaʼel hunda irraa addaan baafame kanuma kee ti. Anis waan kana siʼii fi ilmaan keetii fi intallan kee kanneen si wajjin jiraataniif qooda bara baraa godhee kenneera. Mana kee keessaa namni akka seeraatti qulqulluu taʼe kam iyyuu waan kana nyaachuu ni dandaʼa.
12 "All the best of the oil, and all the best of the vintage, and of the grain, the first fruits of them which they give to the LORD, to you have I given them.
“Zayitii ejersaa filatamaa hunda, daadhii wayinii filatamaa hundaa fi waan galfatan keessaa mataa midhaanii kan isaan Waaqayyoof dhiʼeessan siif nan kenna.
13 The first-ripe fruits of all that is in their land, which they bring to the LORD, shall be yours; everyone who is clean in your house shall eat of it.
Mataan midhaanii kan isaan waan biyyattii irraa argatan hunda keessaa Waaqayyoof fidan kan kee haa taʼu; mana kee keessaa namni akka seeraatti qulqulluu taʼe kam iyyuu waan kana nyaachuu ni dandaʼa.
14 "Everything devoted in Israel shall be yours.
“Israaʼel keessatti wanni qulqulleeffamee Waaqayyoof kenname hundinuu kee ti.
15 Everything that opens the womb, of all flesh which they offer to the LORD, both of man and animal shall be yours: nevertheless you shall surely redeem the firstborn of man, and you shall redeem the firstborn of unclean animals.
Wanni gadameessa saaqu kam iyyuu namas taʼu horiin Waaqayyoof dhiʼeeffamu hundi kan kee ti. Ati garuu ilma hangafa, horii qulqulluu hin taʼin keessaa immoo korma hangafa furuu qabda.
16 You shall redeem those who are to be redeemed of them from a month old, according to your estimation, for five shekels of money, after the shekel of the sanctuary, which is twenty gerahs.
Yeroo umuriin isaanii jiʼa tokko taʼutti akka saqilii iddoo qulqulluu kan geeraa digdama ulfaatu sanaatti gatii furii murtaaʼe meetii saqilii shaniin isaan furi.
17 "But you shall not redeem the firstborn of a cow, or the firstborn of a sheep, or the firstborn of a goat. They are holy. You shall sprinkle their blood on the altar, and shall burn their fat for an offering made by fire, for a pleasant aroma to the LORD.
“Garuu sangaa hangafa, hoolaa hangafaa fi reʼee hangafa hin furin; isaan qulqulluu dha. Dhiiga isaanii iddoo aarsaa irratti facaasi; cooma isaanii immoo aarsaa ibiddaan dhiʼeeffamu kan urgaan isaa Waaqayyotti tolu godhiitii gubi.
18 Their flesh shall be yours, as the wave offering breast and as the right thigh, it shall be yours.
Akkuma handaraafni aarsaa sochoofamuutii fi tafni mirgaa kan kee taʼe sana foon isaaniis kan kee taʼa.
19 All the wave offerings of the holy things, which the children of Israel offer to the LORD, have I given you, and your sons and your daughters with you, as a portion forever: it is a covenant of salt forever before the LORD to you and to your descendants with you."
Ani waan aarsaa qulqulluu Israaʼeloonni Waaqayyoof dhiʼeessan irraa addaan baafame hunda siif, ilmaan keetii fi intallan keetiif qooda bara baraa godhee nan kenna. Innis fuula Waaqayyoo duratti siʼii fi sanyii keetiif kakuu soogiddaa kan bara baraa ti.”
20 The LORD said to Aaron, "You shall have no inheritance in their land, neither shall you have any portion among them. I am your portion and your inheritance among the children of Israel.
Waaqayyo Arooniin akkana jedhe; “Ati biyya isaanii keessatti dhaala tokko illee yookaan qooda tokko illee isaan gidduudhaa hin qabaattu; ani saba Israaʼel keessatti qooda keetii fi dhaala kee ti.
21 "To the descendants of Levi, look, I have given all the tithe in Israel for an inheritance, in return for their service which they serve, even the service of the Tent of Meeting.
“Kunoo ani kennaa Israaʼel keessa jiru kudhan keessaa tokko hunda waan isaan tajaajila dunkaana wal gaʼii tajaajilaniif dhaala godhee Lewwotaaf kenneera.
22 Hereafter the children of Israel shall not come near the Tent of Meeting, lest they bear sin, and die.
Siʼachi Israaʼeloonni akka cubbuu hin baannee fi akka hin duuneef dunkaana wal gaʼiitti hin dhiʼaatin.
23 But the Levites shall do the service of the Tent of Meeting, and they shall bear their iniquity: it shall be a statute forever throughout your generations; and among the children of Israel they shall have no inheritance.
Kan hojii dunkaana wal gaʼii hojjetuu fi kan itti gaafatama yakka achitti hojjetamuu fudhatu Lewwotuma. Kunis dhaloota dhufuuf seera bara baraa ti. Isaan saba Israaʼel keessatti dhaala tokko illee hin argatan.
24 For the tithe of the children of Israel, which they offer as a wave offering to the LORD, I have given to the Levites for an inheritance: therefore I have said to them, 'Among the children of Israel they shall have no inheritance.'"
Qooda kanaa ani waan Israaʼeloonni kudhan keessaa tokko aarsaa godhanii Waaqayyoof dhiʼeessan sana dhaala isaanii godhee Lewwotaaf kenneera. Sababiin ani, ‘Isaan saba Israaʼel keessatti dhaala tokko illee hin qabaatan’ jedhee waaʼee isaanii dubbadheefis kanuma.”
25 The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
Waaqayyo Museedhaan akkana jedhe;
26 "Moreover you shall speak to the Levites, and tell them, 'When you take of the children of Israel the tithe which I have given you from them for your inheritance, then you shall offer up a wave offering of it for the LORD, a tithe of the tithe.
“Akkana jedhii Lewwotatti dubbadhu: ‘Yommuu kennaa harka kudhan keessaa harka tokko kan ani dhaala keessan godhee isiniif kenne sana Israaʼeloota irraa fudhatanitti isin kennaa sana harka kudhan keessaa harka tokko aarsaa Waaqayyoo godhaa dhiʼeessaa.
27 Your wave offering shall be reckoned to you, as though it were the grain of the threshing floor, and as the fullness of the winepress.
Aarsaan keessanis akkuma midhaan oobdii irraa yookaan akkuma cuunfaa iddoo ija wayinii itti cuunfanii keessaa baʼeetti isiniif herregama.
28 Thus you also shall offer a wave offering to the LORD of all your tithes, which you receive of the children of Israel; and of it you shall give the LORD's wave offering to Aaron the priest.
Isinis haaluma kanaan kennaa harka kudhan keessaa harka tokko kan Israaʼeloota irraa argatan hunda keessaa Waaqayyoof aarsaa ni dhiʼeessitu; kennaawwan kanneen keessaas waan qooda Waaqayyoo taʼe Aroon lubichaaf kennaa.
29 Out of all your gifts you shall offer every wave offering of the LORD, of all its best, even the holy part of it out of it.'
Waan isinii kenname hunda keessaa kutaa waan hunda caalaa gaarii fi qulqulluu taʼe qooda Waaqayyoo godhaatii dhiʼeessaa.’
30 "Therefore you shall tell them, 'When you heave its best from it, then it shall be reckoned to the Levites as the increase of the threshing floor, and as the increase of the winepress.
“Lewwotaan akkana jedhi: ‘Yommuu isin kutaa waan hunda caalaa gaarii taʼe dhiʼeessitanitti kutaan sun akka midhaan oobdii irraa yookaan akka cuunfaa iddoo ija wayinii itti cuunfan keessaa baʼeetti isinii herregama.
31 You shall eat it in every place, you and your households: for it is your reward in return for your service in the Tent of Meeting.
Sababii wanni kun mindaa hojii dunkaana wal gaʼii kan isin hojjettanii taʼeef isinii fi namoonni mana keessan jiraatan waan hafe sana iddoo barbaadan kamitti iyyuu nyaachuu dandeessu.
32 You shall bear no sin by reason of it, when you have heaved from it its best: and you shall not profane the holy things of the children of Israel, that you not die.'"
Qooda isaa kan waan hunda caalu sana dhiʼeessuudhaan isin waan kana keessatti yakka hin qabaattan; yoos isin aarsaa Israaʼelootaa qulqulluu sana hin xureessitan; hin duutanis.’”
