Deuteronomio 16
1 Ngilinenyo ti bulan ti Abib, ken salimetmetanyo ti Ilalabas a maipaay kenni Yahweh a Diosmo, ta impanawnakayo ni Yahweh a Diosyo iti bulan ti Abib iti rabii manipud Egipto.
“[Each year] honor Yahweh our God by celebrating the Passover [Festival] in the month of Abib [in early spring]. It was on a night in that month that Yahweh rescued your ancestors from Egypt.
2 Mangidatonkayo ti Ilalabas a maipaay kenni Yahweh a Diosyo a babaen dagiti sumagmamano kadagiti arban iti karneroyo ken kadagiti bakayo iti disso a piliento ni Yahweh a kas santuariona.
[In order to celebrate that festival], go to the place that Yahweh will choose [for you to worship him], and offer [there one young animal] from your cattle or your sheep to be the Passover sacrifice, to honor Yahweh [MTY].
3 Kanenyonto ti tinapay nga awan ti lebadurana a kaddua dagitoy; pito nga aldaw a mangankayonto iti tinapay nga awan ti lebadurana a kaddua dagitoy, ti tinapay ti pannakaparparigat; ta nagdardaraskayo a rimmuar manipud iti daga ti Egipto: Aramidenyo daytoy iti amin nga al-aldaw iti panagbiagyo tapno malagipyo ti aldaw idi rimmuarkayo iti daga ti Egipto.
[When you eat the Passover meal], the bread that you eat must not have yeast in it. You must eat this kind of bread, which will be called the bread of suffering/misery, for seven days. This is to help you to remember all during the time that you are alive that when your ancestors left Egypt, [where they were suffering because they were slaves], they left very quickly. [They did not put in yeast and wait for the dough to swell up].
4 Masapul nga awan iti makita a lebadura kadakayo iti uneg dagiti amin a beddengyo bayat iti pito nga aldaw; wenno masapul nga awan iti aniaman a matedda a karne nga idatonyo iti rabii iti umuna nga aldaw nga agingga iti bigat.
[During that festival], you must not have any yeast in any house in your land for seven days. Furthermore, the meat [of the animals] that you sacrifice on the evening of the first day [of the Passover Festival must be eaten during that night]; do not allow any of it to remain until the next day.
5 Saanyo a mabalin nga idaton ti Ilalabas iti uray sadino nga uneg dagiti ruangan ti siudad nga it-ited ni Yahweh a Diosyo kadakayo.
“To honor Yahweh our God, you must offer the Passover sacrifice only at the place that he chooses for you [to worship him]; do not offer that sacrifice in any other town in the land that Yahweh is giving to you. Offer that sacrifice when the sun is setting, at the same time of day that your ancestors [started to] leave Egypt.
6 Ngem ketdi, idatonyo iti disso a piliento ni Yahweh a Diosyo a kas sanctuariona. Aramidenyonto sadiay ti daton ti Ilalabas, iti rabii iti ilelennek ti init, iti tiempo ti tawen a rimmuarkayo manipud Egipto.
7 Masapul a tunuoenyo daytoy ket kanenyo iti lugar a piliento ni Yahweh a Diosyo, ket agsublikayonto kadagiti toldayo iti bigat.
Boil [the meat] and eat it at the place [of worship] that Yahweh our God chooses. The next morning, you may return to your tents.
8 Iti las-ud ti innem nga aldaw ket mangankayo iti tinapay nga awan iti lebadurana; iti maikapito nga aldaw ket addanto iti napasnek a panaggigimong a maipaay kenni Yahweh a Diosyo; masapul a saankayonto nga agtrabaho iti dayta nga aldaw.
Each day for six days the bread that you eat must have no yeast in it. On the seventh day, you must all gather to worship Yahweh our God. [It will be a day of rest]; you must not do any work on that day.”
9 Mangbilangkayonto iti pito a lawas a maipaay iti bagiyo; manipud iti tiempo a rugianyo a gapasen ti trigo, masapul a rugianyo ti agbilang iti pito a lawas.
“[Each year], from the day that you start to harvest your grain, count seven weeks.
10 Masapul a salimetmetanyo ti Fiesta dagiti Lawas a maipaay kenni Yahweh a Diosyo a mabuyogan iti daton a nagtaud iti kaunggan nga itedyo manipud kadagiti imam, segun iti panangbendision kadakayo ni Yahweh a Diosyo.
Then, to honor Yahweh our God, celebrate the Harvest Festival. Do that by bringing to him an offering [of grain]. Yahweh has blessed you [by causing it to grow in your fields during that year]. If you had a big harvest, bring a big offering. If you had a small harvest, bring a small offering.
11 Agrag-okayonto iti sangoanan ni Yahweh a Diosyo—dakayo, ken ti anakyo a lalaki, ti anakyo a babai, ti adipenyo a lalaki, ti adipenyo a babai, ken ti Levita nga adda iti uneg dagiti ruangan ti siudadyo, ken ti gangannaet, ti ulila ken ti balo nga adda kadakayo, iti disso a piliento ni Yahweh a Diosyo a maipaay iti sanctuariona.
[Each married couple] should be joyful in the presence of Yahweh. Their children, their servants, the descendants of Levi [who are in that town], and the foreigners, orphans, and widows [who are living among you], should also be joyful. Bring those offerings to the place of worship that Yahweh will choose.
12 Malagipyonto a maysakayo nga adipen idi idiay Egipto; masapul a tungpalenyo ken aramidenyo dagitoy nga al-alagaden.
[“When you celebrate these festivals] by obeying these commands, remember that your ancestors were previously slaves in Egypt.”
13 Masapul a ngilenenyo ti Fiesta dagiti Abong-abong iti las-ud ti pito nga al-aldaw kalpasan a nakaurnongkayo ti panagaapit manipud iti pagtaltaganyo ken manipud iti pagpespesanyo iti ubasyo.
“[Each year], after you have threshed all your grain and pressed [the juice from] all your grapes, you must celebrate the Festival of [Living in Temporary] Shelters for seven days.
14 Agrag-okayonto bayat iti fiestayo— dakayo, ti anakyo a lalaki, ti anakyo a babai, ken ti adipenyo a lalaki ken ti adipenyo a babai, ken ti Levita, ken ti gangannaet, ken ti ulila, ken ti balo, nga adda iti uneg dagiti ruanganyo.
[Each married couple] along with their children, their servants, the descendants of Levi [who are in that town], and the foreigners, orphans, and widows [who are living among you], should be joyful in the presence of Yahweh.
15 Iti las-ud ti pito nga aldaw, masapul a ngilinenyo ti fiesta a maipaay kenni Yahweh a Diosyo iti disso a piliennanto, gapu ta bendisionannakayonto ni Yahweh a Diosyo iti amin nga apityo ken dagiti amin nga aramid dagiti imayo, ket masapul a naan-anay nga agrag-okayo.
Honor Yahweh our God by celebrating this festival for seven days in the place that Yahweh chooses [for you to worship him]. You should all be joyful, because Yahweh will have blessed your harvest and all the other work that you have done.
16 Masapul nga agparang iti sangoanan ni Yahweh a Diosyo iti mamitlo iti makatawen iti amin a lallaki iti disso a piliennanto: iti Fiesta ti Tinapay nga awan Lebadurana, ken dagiti Fiesta dagiti Lawlawas, ken iti Fiesta dagiti Abong-abong, ket saandanto nga agparang nga ima-ima iti sangoanan ni Yahweh;
“So, each year all of you Israeli men must gather [with your families] to worship Yahweh our God at the place that he will choose, [to celebrate three festivals]: The Passover Festival, the Harvest Festival, and the Festival of Living in Temporary Shelters. Each of you men must bring [LIT] an offering [for Yahweh to these festivals]
17 ngem ketdi, mangtedto ti tunggal tao kas iti kabaelanna, tapno maammoanyo ti bendision nga inted kadakayo ni Yahweh a Diosyo.
in proportion to the blessings that Yahweh has given you [during that year].”
18 Masapul a mangisaadkayo kadagiti ukom ken opisial kadagiti amin a ruangan ti siudadyo nga it-ited kadakayo ni Yahweh a Diosyo; maaladanto kadagiti tunggal tribuyo, ken masapul nga ukomendanto dagiti tattao nga addaan iti nalinteg a panangukom.
“Appoint judges and other officials throughout your tribes, in all the towns [in the land] that Yahweh our God is giving to you. They must judge people fairly/justly.
19 Masapul a saanyo a piliten ti hustisia; masapul a saankayo a mangipakita iti panangipangpangruna wenno saankayo nga umawat iti pasuksok, ta ti pasuksok ket bulsekenna dagiti mata dagiti masirib ken killoenna dagiti sasao dagiti nalinteg.
They must not judge unjustly. They must not favor one person more than another. The judges must not accept bribes, because if a judge accepts a bribe, even if he is wise and honest, it will be very difficult for him to judge fairly [IDM]; [he will do what the person who gave him the bribe wants him to do and declare that] the righteous/innocent people [must be punished].
20 Masapul a surotenyo ti hustisia, ti laeng hustisia ti surotenyo tapno agbiagkayo ket tawidenyo ti daga nga it-ited ni Yahweh a Diosyo kadakayo.
You must be completely fair and just [DOU], in order that you will enter and occupy the land that Yahweh our God is giving to you.”
21 Masapul a saankayo a mangipatakder iti maysa nga Ahsera nga agpaay iti bagiyo, uray ania a kita ti kayo iti sikigan ti altar ni Yahweh a Diosyo nga aramidenyo a maipaay iti bagiyo.
“When you make an altar to worship Yahweh our God, do not put next to it any wooden statue [that represents] the goddess Asherah.
22 Masapul met a saankayo a mangipatakder iti aniaman a nasagradoan nga adigi a bato a maipaay iti bagiyo; a kagurgura ni Yahweh a Diosyo.
And do not set up any [stone] pillar [to worship any idol, because] Yahweh hates them.”
