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 Abib, and keep the passover unto the Lord thy God: for in the month of Abib the Lord thy God brought thee forth 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.

Thou shalt therefore sacrifice the passover unto the Lord thy God, of the flock and the herd, in the place which the Lord shall choose to place his name 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 eat no leavened bread with it; seven days shalt thou eat unleavened bread therewith, even the bread of affliction; for thou camest forth out of the land of Egypt in haste: that thou mayest remember the day when thou camest forth out of the land 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.

And there shall be no leavened bread seen with thee in all thy coast seven days; neither shall there any thing of the flesh, which thou sacrificedst the first day at even, remain all night until the morning.

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

Thou mayest not sacrifice the passover within any of thy gates, which the Lord thy God giveth 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 at the place which the Lord thy God shall choose to place his name in, there thou shalt sacrifice the passover at even, at the going down of the sun, at the season that thou camest forth 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 roast and eat it in the place which the Lord thy God shall choose: and thou shalt turn in the morning, and go unto thy tents.

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 thou shalt eat unleavened bread: and on the seventh day shall be a solemn assembly to the Lord thy God: thou shalt do no work therein.

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

Seven weeks shalt thou number unto thee: begin to number the seven weeks from such time as thou beginnest to 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 keep the feast of weeks unto the Lord thy God with a tribute of a freewill offering of thine hand, which thou shalt give unto the Lord thy God, according as the Lord thy God hath blessed thee:

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 rejoice 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, that are among you, in the place which the Lord thy God hath chosen to place his name there.

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

And thou shalt remember that thou wast a bondman in Egypt: and thou shalt observe and do these statutes.

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

Thou shalt observe the feast of tabernacles seven days, after that thou hast gathered in thy corn and thy wine:

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 rejoice in thy feast, thou, and thy son, and thy daughter, and thy manservant, and thy maidservant, and the Levite, 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 keep a solemn feast unto the Lord thy God in the place which the Lord shall choose: because the Lord thy God shall bless thee in all thine increase, and in all the works of thine hands, therefore thou shalt surely rejoice.

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, and in the feast of weeks, and in the feast of tabernacles: and they shall not appear before the Lord empty:

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

Every man shall give as he is able, according to the blessing of the Lord thy God which he hath given thee.

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.

Judges and officers shalt thou make thee in all thy gates, which the Lord thy God giveth thee, throughout thy tribes: and they shall 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.

Thou shalt not wrest judgment; thou shalt not respect persons, neither take a gift: for a gift doth blind the eyes of the wise, and pervert the words of the righteous.

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

That which is altogether just shalt thou follow, that thou mayest live, and inherit the land which the Lord thy God giveth thee.

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

Thou shalt not plant thee a grove of any trees near unto the altar of the Lord thy God, which thou shalt make thee.

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

Neither shalt thou set thee up any image; which the Lord thy God hateth.
