Deotoronomia 16

1 Tandremo ny volana Abiba, ka ataovy ny Paskan’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrao fa tamin’ ny volana Abiba no nitondran’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrao anao nivoaka avy tany Egypta tamin’ ny alina.

Observe the month of new corn, which is the first of the spring, that thou mayst celebrate the phase to the Lord thy God: because in this month the Lord thy God brought thee out of Egypt by night.

2 Ary vonoy ny Paskan’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrao, dia ondry aman’ osy sy omby, eo amin’ ny tany izay hofidin’ i Jehovah hampitoerany ny anarany.

And thou shalt sacrifice the phase to the Lord thy God, of sheep, and of oxen, in the place which the Lord thy God shall choose, that his name may dwell there.

3 Aza ny mofo misy masirasira no haninao aminy; hafitoana no hihinananao mofo tsy misy masirasira, dia mofom-pahoriana, fa tampoka no nivoahanao avy tany amin’ ny tany Egypta, mba hotsarovanao amin’ ny andro rehetra hiainanao ny andro izay nivoahanao avy tany amin’ ny tany Egypta.

Thou shalt not eat with it leavened bread: seven days shalt thou eat without leaven, the bread of affliction, because thou camest out of Egypt in fear: that thou mayst remember the day of thy coming out of Egypt, all the days of thy life.

4 Ary aoka tsy hisy masirasira eo aminao ao anatin’ ny fari-taninao rehetra hafitoana; ary aoka tsy hisy hitoetra miloaka alina ny henan’ ny fanatitra izay novonoinao tamin’ ny harivan’ ny andro voalohany.

No leaven shall be seen in all thy coasts for seven days, neither shall any of the flesh of that which was sacrificed the first day in the evening remain until morning.

5 Tsy hisy azonao hamonoana ny Paska ny tanànanao rehetra izay omen’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrao anao;

Thou mayst not immolate the phase in any one of thy cities, which the Lord thy God will give thee:

6 fa eo amin’ ny fitoerana izay hofidin’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrao hampitoerany ny anarany no hamonoanao azy rehefa hariva tokony ho maty masoandro, dia tahaka izay nivoahanao avy tany Egypta.

But in the place which the Lord thy God shall choose, that his name may dwell there: thou shalt immolate the phase in the evening, at the going down of the sun, at which time thou camest out of Egypt.

7 Ary atsatsiho amin’ ny afo izy, ka hano eo amin’ ny tany izay hofidin’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrao; ary miverena nony maraina, ka modia any amin’ ny lainao.

And thou shalt dress, and eat it in the place which the Lord thy God shall choose, and in the morning rising up thou shalt go into thy dwellings.

8 Henemana no hihinananao mofo tsy misy masirasira; fa ny andro fahafito dia fara-fivoriana ho an’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrao, ka tsy hanao raharaha ianao amin’ izany.

Six days shalt thou eat unleavened bread: and on the seventh day, because it is the assembly of the Lord thy God, thou shalt do no work.

9 Herinandro fito no hisainao ho anao: hatramin’ ny andro iandohan’ ny fijinjam-bary no hanisanao azy.

Thou shalt number unto thee seven weeks from that day, wherein thou didst put the sickle to the corn.

10 Ary mitandrema andro firavoravoana manarakaraka ireo herinandro ho an’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrao, ka manatera fanati-tsitrapo, izay homenao araka izay itahian’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrao anao;

And thou shalt celebrate the festival of weeks to the Lord thy God, a voluntary oblation of thy hand, which thou shalt offer according to the blessing of the Lord thy God.

11 ary mifalia eo anatrehan’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrao ianao sy ny zanakao-lahy sy ny zanakao-vavy ary ny ankizilahinao sy ny ankizivavinao ary ny Levita izay ao an-tanànanao mbamin’ ny vahiny sy ny kamboty ary ny mpitondratena izay eo aminao, dia eo amin’ ny tany izay hofidin’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrao hampitoerany ny anarany.

And thou shalt feast before the Lord thy God, thou, and thy son, and thy daughter, and thy manservant, and thy maidservant, and the Levite that is within thy gates, and the stranger and the fatherless, and the widow, who abide with you: in the place which the Lord thy God shall choose, that his name may dwell there:

12 Ary tsarovy fa andevo tany Egypta ianao; koa tandremo sy araho ireo didy ireo.

And thou shalt remember that thou wast a servant in Egypt: and thou shalt keep and do the things that are commanded.

13 Tandremo hafitoana ny andro firavoravoana fitoerana amin’ ny trano rantsan-kazo, rehefa nangoninao ny avy amin’ ny famoloanao sy ny famiazanao.

Thou shalt celebrate the solemnity also of tabernacles seven days, when thou hast gathered in thy fruit of the barnfloor and of the winepress.

14 Ary mifalia amin’ ny andro firavoravoanao ianao sy ny zanakao-lahy sy ny zanakao-vavy sy ny ankizilahinao sy ny ankizivavinao ary ny Levita mbamin’ ny vahiny sy ny kamboty ary ny mpitondratena izay ao an-tanànanao.

And thou shalt make merry in thy festival time, thou, thy son, and thy daughter, thy manservant, and thy maidservant, the Levite also and the stranger, and the fatherless and the widow that are within thy gates.

15 Hafitoana no itandremanao andro firavoravoana ho an’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrao eo amin’ ny tany izay hofidin’ i Jehovah, satria hitahy anao Jehovah Andriamanitrao amin’ ny vokatrao rehetra sy ny asan-tananao rehetra, ka dia hifaly tokoa ianao.

Seven days shalt thou celebrate feasts to the Lord thy God in the place which the Lord shall choose: and the Lord thy God will bless thee in all thy fruits, and in every work of thy hands, and thou shalt be in joy.

16 Intelo isan-kerintaona ny lehilahy rehetra aminao no hiseho eo anatrehan’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrao, eo amin’ ny tany izay hofidiny, dia amin’ ny andro firavoravoana fihinanana mofo tsy misy masirasira sy ny andro firavoravoana manarakaraka ireo herinandro ary ny andro firavoravoana fitoerana amin’ ny trano rantsan-kazo. Ary aoka tsy hisy hiseho foana tsy mitondra fanatitra eo anatrehan’ i Jehovah;

Three times in a year shall all thy males appear before the Lord thy God in the place which he shall choose: in the feast of unleavened bread, in the feast of weeks, and in the feast of tabernacles. No one shall appear with his hands empty before the Lord:

17 fa aoka samy hanatitra izay zakany avy, araka ny fitahian’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrao, izay omeny anao.

But every one shall offer according to what he hath, according to the blessing of the Lord his God, which he shall give him.

18 Mifidiana mpitsara sy mpifehy ho anao ao an-tanànanao rehetra, izay omen’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrao anao, araka ny firenenao; dia hitsara ny olona amin’ ny fitsarana marina ireo.

Thou shalt appoint judges and magistrates in all thy gates, which the Lord thy God shall give thee, in all thy tribes: that they may judge the people with just judgment,

19 Aza manao fitsarana miangatra, aza mizaha tavan’ olona, ary aza mandray kolikoly; fa ny kolikoly mahajamba ny mason’ ny hendry ary mamadika ny tenin’ ny marina.

And not go aside to either part. Thou shalt not accept person nor gifts: for gifts blind the eyes of the wise, and change the words of the just.

20 Ny marina dia marina no harahinao, mba ho velona ianao ka handova ny tany izay omen’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrao anao.

Thou shalt follow justly after that which is just: that thou mayst live and possess the land, which the Lord thy God shall give thee.

21 Aza manangana hazo ho Aseraha ho anao eo anilan’ ny alitaran’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrao, izay ataonao ho anao.

Thou shalt plant no grove, nor any tree near the altar of the Lord thy God:

22 Ary aza manao tsangam-baton-tsampy ho anao; fa halan’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrao izany.

Neither shalt thou make nor set up to thyself a statue: which things the Lord thy God hateth.
