28 Ary ny olona sisa, dia ny mpisorona sy ny Levita sy ny mpiandry varavarana sy ny mpihira sy ny Netinima, ary izay rehetra efa niavaka tamin’ ny tompon-tany hanaraka ny lalàn’ Andriamanitra mbamin’ ny vadin’ ireo sy ny zananilahy ary ny zananivavy, izay rehetra efa nahahaino,
The rest of the people, the priests, the Levites, the gatekeepers, the singers, the temple servants, and all those who had separated themselves from the peoples of the lands to the law of God, their wives, their sons, and their daughters—everyone who had knowledge and understanding—
29 dia samy nikambana tsara tamin’ ny andriandahy rahalahiny ka niozona sy nianiana hanaraka ny lalan’ Andriamanitra, izay nampilazaina an’ i Mosesy, mpanompon’ Andriamanitra, ary hitandrina sy hankatò ny didy rehetra izay nataon’ i Jehovah Tompontsika mbamin’ ny fitsipika sy ny lalàny;
joined with their brothers, their nobles, and entered into a curse and into an oath, to walk in God’s law, which was given by Moses the servant of God, and to observe and do all the commandments of the LORD our Lord, and his ordinances and his statutes;
30 ary tsy hanome ny zananivavy ho vadin’ ny tompon-tany, na haka ny zananivavy ho vadin’ ny zanakai-lahy;
and that we would not give our daughters to the peoples of the land, nor take their daughters for our sons;
31 tsy hividy zavatra amin’ ny andro Sabata, na amin’ izay andro masìna, raha misy entana na vary entin’ ny tompon-tany hamidy amin’ ny andro Sabata, ary tsy hamboly zavatra amin’ ny taona fahafito sady hamoy izay trosa rehetra.
and if the peoples of the land bring wares or any grain on the Sabbath day to sell, that we would not buy from them on the Sabbath, or on a holy day; and that we would forego the seventh year crops and the exaction of every debt.
32 Ary nanao lalàna ho anay koa izahay handoa ny ampahatelon-tsekely isan-taona hanaovana ny fanompoana momba ny tranon’ Andriamanitsika:
Also we made ordinances for ourselves, to charge ourselves yearly with the third part of a shekel for the service of the house of our God:
33 dia ho amin’ ny mofo aseho sy ny fanatitra hohanina mandrakariva sy ny fanatitra dorana mandrakariva, ary ho amin’ ny Sabata sy ny voaloham-bolana sy ny fotoam-pivavahana, ary ho amin’ ny zava-masìna sy ny fanatitra noho ny ota hanaovana fanavotana ho an’ ny Isiraely, dia hanaovana ny raharaha rehetra momba ny tranon’ Andriamanitsika.
for the show bread, for the continual meal offering, for the continual burnt offering, for the Sabbaths, for the new moons, for the set feasts, for the holy things, for the sin offerings to make atonement for Israel, and for all the work of the house of our God.
34 Ary nanao filokana izahay ny amin’ ny hanateran’ ny mpisorona sy ny Levita sy ny olona ny kitay hazo, hitondranay azy ho ao an-tranon’ Andriamanitra araka ny fianakavianay avy amin’ ny fotoan’ andro isan-taona, handoroana eo ambonin’ ny alitaran’ i Jehovah Andriamanitsika araka izay voasoratra ao amin’ ny lalàna,
We, the priests, the Levites, and the people, cast lots for the wood offering, to bring it into the house of our God, according to our fathers’ houses, at times appointed year by year, to burn on the LORD our God’s altar, as it is written in the law;
35 ary mba hitondranay ny voaloham-bokatry ny taninay sy ny voaloham-bokatry ny hazo mamoa rehetra ho ao an-tranon’ i Jehovah isan-taona isan-taona;
and to bring the first fruits of our ground and the first fruits of all fruit of all kinds of trees, year by year, to the LORD’s house;
36 ary ny lahimatoanay sy ny voalohan-teraky ny biby fiompinay, araka izay voasoratra ao amin’ ny lalàna, ary ny voalohan-teraky ny ombinay sy ny ondry aman’ osinay dia nekenay hohentina ho an-tranon’ i Jehovah Andriamanitsika, ho an’ ny mpisorona izay manao fanompoam-pivavahana ao an-tranon’ Andriamanitsika;
also the firstborn of our sons and of our livestock, as it is written in the law, and the firstborn of our herds and of our flocks, to bring to the house of our God, to the priests who minister in the house of our God;
37 ary mba hitondranay ho an’ ny mpisorona koa ny voalohan’ ny kobanay voafetafeta sy ny fanatitra asandratray sy ny voaloham-bokatry ny hazo rehetra sy ny ranom-boaloboka ary ny diloilo ho amin’ ny efi-trano ao an-tranon’ Andriamanitsika, ary ny ampahafolon’ ny vokatry ny taninay ho an’ ny Levita; fa ny Levita no mpandray ny fahafolon-karena eny an-tanàna rehetra akaikin’ ny fambolenay.
and that we should bring the first fruits of our dough, our wave offerings, the fruit of all kinds of trees, and the new wine and the oil, to the priests, to the rooms of the house of our God; and the tithes of our ground to the Levites; for they, the Levites, take the tithes in all our farming villages.
38 Ary hisy mpisorona anankiray, taranak’ i Arona, hiaraka amin’ ny Levita, raha mandray ny fahafolon-karena izy; ary ny ampahafolon’ ny fahafolon-karena dia ho entin’ ny Levita miakatra ho ao an-tranon’ Andriamanitsika, ho ao amin’ ny efi-trano ao an-trano fitehirizan-drakitra.
The priest, the descendent of Aaron, shall be with the Levites when the Levites take tithes. The Levites shall bring up the tithe of the tithes to the house of our God, to the rooms, into the treasure house.
39 Fa ho ao amin’ ireo efi-trano ireo no hitondran’ ny Zanak’ Isiraely sy ny Levita ny fanatitra asandratra, dia vary sy ranom-boaloboka ary diloilo, dia ho ao amin’ ilay itoeran’ ny fanaky ny fitoerana masìna sy ny mpisorona izay manao fanompoam-pivavahana sy ny mpiandry varavarana ary ny mpihira; ary tsy hahafoy ny tranon’ Andriamanitsika izahay.
For the children of Israel and the children of Levi shall bring the wave offering of the grain, of the new wine, and of the oil, to the rooms where the vessels of the sanctuary are, and the priests who minister, with the gatekeepers and the singers. We will not forsake the house of our God.
