Leviticus 18
1 YHWH said to Moses,
Waaqayyo Museedhaan akkana jedhe;
2 "Speak to the children of Israel, and say to them, 'I am YHWH your God.
“Akkana jedhii Israaʼelootatti himi; ‘Ani Waaqayyo Waaqa keessan.
3 You shall not do as they do in the land of Egypt, where you lived: and you shall not do as they do in the land of Canaan, where I am bringing you; neither shall you walk in their statutes.
Isin waan isaan biyya Gibxi, biyya isin keessa jiraachaa turtan sana keessatti hojjetan hin hojjetinaa; waan biyya Kanaʼaan, biyya ani itti isin galchuuf jiru keessatti hojjetamus hin hojjetinaa. Seera isaanii duukaa hin buʼinaa.
4 You shall do my ordinances, and you shall keep my statutes, and walk in them: I am YHWH your God.
Isin seera kootiif ajajamaa; ajaja koos sirriitti eegaa; ani Waaqayyo Waaqa keessanii dha.
5 You shall therefore keep my statutes and my ordinances; which if a man does, he shall live in them: I am YHWH.
Ajaja koo fi seera koo eegaa; namni isaaniif ajajamu isaaniin jiraataatii; ani Waaqayyo.
6 "'None of you shall approach anyone who are his close relatives, to uncover their nakedness: I am YHWH.
“‘Namni kam iyyuu fira dhiigaa kam iyyuu wajjin wal bira gaʼuuf itti hin dhiʼaatin; ani Waaqayyo.
7 "'You shall not uncover the nakedness of your father, nor the nakedness of your mother: she is your mother. You shall not uncover her nakedness.
“‘Haadha kee wajjin wal bira gaʼuudhaan abbaa kee hin salphisin; isheen haadha kee ti; ishee wajjin wal bira hin gaʼin.
8 "'You shall not uncover the nakedness of your father's wife: it is your father's nakedness.
“‘Niitii abbaa keetii wajjin wal bira hin gaʼin; wanni kun abbaa kee salphisa.
9 "'You shall not uncover the nakedness of your sister, the daughter of your father, or the daughter of your mother, whether born at home, or born abroad.
“‘Isheen manuma keettis taʼu yookaan alatti dhalattu illee obboleettii kee, intala abbaa keetii yookaan haadha keetii wajjin wal bira hin gaʼin.
10 "'You shall not uncover the nakedness of your son's daughter, or of your daughter's daughter, even their nakedness: for theirs is your own nakedness.
“‘Intala ilma keetii yookaan intala intala keetii wajjin wal bira hin gaʼin; wanni kun si salphisa.
11 "'You shall not uncover the nakedness of your father's wife's daughter, conceived by your father, since she is your sister, you shall not uncover her nakedness.
“‘Intala niitii abbaa keetii kan abbaa keetiif dhalatte wajjin wal bira hin gaʼin; isheen obboleettii kee ti.
12 "'You shall not uncover the nakedness of your father's sister: she is your father's flesh.
“‘Obboleettii abbaa keetii wajjin wal bira hin gaʼin; isheen abbaa keetiif fira dhiigaa ti.
13 "'You shall not uncover the nakedness of your mother's sister: for she is your mother's flesh
“‘Obboleettii haadha keetii wajjin wal bira hin gaʼin; isheen haadha keetiif fira dhiigaa ti.
14 "'You shall not uncover the nakedness of your father's brother, you shall not approach his wife: she is your aunt.
“‘Wal bira gaʼuuf jettee niitii obboleessa abbaa keetiitti dhiʼaattee isa hin salphisin; isheen niitii obboleessa abbaa keetii ti.
15 "'You shall not uncover the nakedness of your daughter-in-law: she is your son's wife. You shall not uncover her nakedness.
“‘Niitii ilma keetii wajjin wal bira hin gaʼin. Isheen niitii ilma keetii ti; ishee wajjin wal bira hin gaʼin.
16 "'You shall not uncover the nakedness of your brother's wife: it is your brother's nakedness.
“‘Niitii obboleessa keetii wajjin wal bira hin gaʼin; wanni sun obboleessa kee salphisa.
17 "'You shall not uncover the nakedness of a woman and her daughter. You shall not take her son's daughter, or her daughter's daughter, to uncover her nakedness; they are near kinswomen: it is wickedness.
“‘Dubartii tokkoo fi intala ishee wajjin wal bira hin gaʼin. Intala ilma dubartii sanaa yookaan intala intala ishee wajjin wal bira hin gaʼin; isaan isheedhaaf fira dhiigaa ti; wanni kun jalʼina.
18 "'You shall not take a wife to her sister, to be a rival, to uncover her nakedness, while her sister is yet alive.
“‘Utuu niitiin kee lubbuudhaan jirtuu obboleettii ishee masaanuu ishee gootee hin fuudhin; ishee wajjinis wal bira hin gaʼin.
19 "'You shall not approach a woman to uncover her nakedness, as long as she is impure by her uncleanness.
“‘Yeroo dubartiin tokko xuraaʼummaa xurii jiʼaa of irraa qabdutti, bira gaʼuudhaaf jettee isheetti hin dhiʼaatin.
20 "'You shall not lie carnally with your neighbor's wife, and defile yourself with her.
“‘Niitii namaa wajjin wal bira geessee isheedhaan of hin xureessin.
21 "'You shall not give any of your children to sacrifice to Molech; neither shall you profane the name of your God: I am YHWH.
“‘Ijoollee kee keessaa tokko illee akka Moolekiif aarsaa taʼaniif hin kennin; ati maqaa Waaqa keetii hin xureessin. Ani Waaqayyo.
22 "'You shall not have sexual relations with a male, as with a woman. That is detestable.
“‘Akka namni dubartii wajjin ciisu ati dhiira wajjin hin ciisin; wanni kun hojii jibbisiisaa dha.
23 "'You shall not have sexual relations with any animal to become defiled with it, nor shall any woman give herself to an animal to have sexual relations with it. It is a perversion.
“‘Horii kam iyyuu wajjin wal bira geessee of hin xureessin; dubartiin horii wajjin wal bira gaʼuuf ofii ishee itti hin kennin; kun waan karaa irraa goree dha.
24 "'Do not defile yourselves in any of these things: for in all these the nations which I am casting out before you were defiled.
“‘Sababii namoonni ani ariʼee isin duraa baasuuf jiru kunneen haala kanaan xuraaʼaniif isin karaa kanneen keessaa kamiin iyyuu of hin xureessinaa.
25 The land was defiled: therefore I punished its iniquity, and the land vomited out her inhabitants.
Lafti iyyuu xuroofteerti; kanaafuu ani sababii cubbuu isheetiifan ishee adabe; laftis jiraattota ishee ni tufti.
26 You therefore shall keep my statutes and my ordinances, and shall not do any of these abominations; neither the native-born, nor the stranger who lives as a foreigner among you;
Isin garuu ajaja koo fi seera koo eegaa. Dhalataan biyyaatii fi alagoonni isin gidduu jiraatanis waan jibbisiisaa kana keessaa kam iyyuu hin hojjetin.
27 (for all these abominations have the men of the land done, that were before you, and the land became defiled);
Namoonni isiniin dura biyya sana keessa jiraatanis waan kana hunda hojjetanii akkasiin biyyattiin xuroofte.
28 that the land not vomit you out also, when you defile it, as it vomited out the nation that was before you.
Isinis lafa kana yoo xureessitan, lafti akkuma saboota isin dura turan tufte sana isiniin illee ni tufti.
29 "'For whoever shall do any of these abominations, even the souls that do them shall be cut off from among their people.
“‘Namni wantoota jibbisiisoo kanneen keessaa tokko illee hojjetu kam iyyuu saba isaa keessaa haa balleeffamu.
30 Therefore you shall keep my requirements, that you do not practice any of these abominable customs, which were practiced before you, and that you do not defile yourselves with them: I am YHWH your God.'"
Ajaja koo eegaa; barteewwan jibbisiisoo isin dura hojjetamaa turan sana keessaa tokko illee duukaa buutanii ittiin of hin xureessinaa; ani Waaqayyo Waaqa keessan.’”
