Deotoronomia 12
1 Inao o fañè naho fepètse tsy mahay tsy hambena’areo soa an-tane atolo’ Iehovà Andrianañaharen-droae’o azo ho lova’o amy ze hene andro hiveloma’ areo an-tane atoy.
These are the statutes and ordinances, which ye shall take heed to do in the land, which Jehovah the God of thy fathers is giving thee to possess it, all the days that ye live upon the earth.
2 Fonga ho rotsahe’ areo ze toe-pitoroña’ o rofoko ho tavane’ areoo, ze ndrahare’ iareo andengo’ o vohitse aboo, naho ankaboa’ o vohibohitseo vaho añ’alo’ ze hene hatae leñe.
Ye shall utterly destroy all the places wherein the nations which ye shall dispossess have served their gods, upon the high mountains, and upon the hills, and under every green tree;
3 Ho fongore’ areo o kitreli’eo le ho pozahe’ areo o hazomanga’eo, le ho forototoe’ areo an’ afo o Aserimeo, le ho hatsafe’ areo o saresaren-drahare’eo vaho ho faohe’ areo amy toetsey ty añara’ iareo.
and ye shall break down their altars, and shatter their statues, and burn their Asherahs with fire; and ye shall hew down the graven images of their gods, and ye shall destroy the names of them out of that place.
4 F’ie tsy hanoe’ areo am’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’ areo,
Ye shall not do so unto Jehovah your God;
5 fa amy ze toetse ho joboñe’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’ areo amo fifokoa’ areo iabio, hampipoha’e ty tahina’e ho akiba’e, le izay ty hipaia’ areo aze, vaho eo ty hiheova’o.
but unto the place which Jehovah your God will choose out of all your tribes to set his name there, his habitation shall ye seek, and thither thou shalt come;
6 Eo ty hindesa’ areo o hisoroña’ areoo, naho o banabanà’ areoo, naho o engam-paha-folo’ areoo, naho o engaem-pità’ areoo, naho o nifantà’ areoo naho o enga satrin’ arofo’ areoo vaho ty valohan’ ana’ o añombe’ areoo naho o lia-rai’ areoo.
and thither ye shall bring your burnt-offerings and your sacrifices, and your tithes, and the heave-offering of your hand, and your vows, and your voluntary-offerings, and the firstlings of your kine and of your sheep;
7 Eo ka ty hikamà’ areo naho o keleia’ areoo, añatrefa’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’ areo, le hirebek’ amo hene tolom-pità’ areo nitahia’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’o azoo.
and ye shall eat there before Jehovah your God, and ye shall rejoice, ye and your households, in all the business of your hand, wherein Jehovah thy God hath blessed thee.
8 Tsy hanoe’ areo ka o satan-tika henaneo, t’ie songa manao ze to am-pihaino’e avao,
Ye shall not do after all that we do here this day, each one whatever is right in his own eyes.
9 amy te mboe tsy niheova’ areo i fitofàñe naho lova atolo’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’ areo azoy.
For ye are not as yet come to the rest and to the inheritance which Jehovah thy God giveth thee.
10 Ie itsaha’ areo Iardene himoneñe amy tane atolo’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’ areo anahareo ho lovay, le ie ampitofà’e amo rafelahy miariseho iabio vaho imoneña’areo am-panintsiñañe;
But when ye have gone over the Jordan, and dwell in the land which Jehovah your God causeth you to inherit, and when he hath given you rest from all your enemies round about, and ye dwell in safety,
11 le eo ty toetse ho joboñe’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’ areo hampimoneña’e ty tahina’e, eo ty hanesea’ areo ze handiliako anahareo; le o hisoroñañeo, naho o banabana’ areoo naho o faha-folom-bara’ areoo naho o engaem-pità’ areoo, naho ze hene engam-panta nifantà’ areo am’ Iehovà.
then there shall be a place which Jehovah your God will choose to cause his name to dwell there; thither shall ye bring all that I command you: your burnt-offerings, and your sacrifices, your tithes, and the heave-offering of your hand, and all your choice vows which ye shall vow to Jehovah.
12 Le hirebeke añatrefa’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’ areo nahareo, ie naho o anadahi’ areoo naho o anak’ ampela’ areoo naho ondevo lahy naho ampela’ areoo naho i nte-Levy am-po-kijoli’ areoy, ie tsy aman’ anjara ndra lova ama’ areo.
And ye shall rejoice before Jehovah your God, ye, and your sons, and your daughters, and your bondmen, and your handmaids, and the Levite that is within your gates; for he hath no portion nor inheritance with you.
13 Mitomira tsy hañenga soroñe amy ze toetse isa’o añe,
Take heed to thyself that thou offer not thy burnt-offerings in every place that thou seest;
14 te mone amy toetse ho joboñe’ Iehovà amo fifokoa’ooy, ao ty hañenga’o o fisoroña’oo, le eo ty hanoa’o ze hene lilieko.
but in the place which Jehovah will choose in one of thy tribes, there thou shalt offer thy burnt-offerings, and there thou shalt do all that I command thee.
15 Ie amy izay mahazo mandenta naho mikama ze biby amy ze hene lalam-bei’o ao irehe, ze paia’ ty tro’o amo fitahiañe natolo’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’o azoo, ie sambe ho kamae’ ty malio naho ty tsy malio, manahake t’ie tsebý ndra aiale.
Nevertheless, according to all the desire of thy soul thou mayest slay and eat flesh in all thy gates, according to the blessing of Jehovah thy God which he hath given thee: the unclean and the clean may eat thereof, as of the gazelle, and the hart.
16 Fe tsy ho kamae’o ty lio’e; fa hadoa’o an-tane hoe rano.
Only, ye shall not eat the blood; ye shall pour it upon the earth as water.
17 Tsy ho kamae’o an-dalam-bei’o eo ka ze fahafolo’ ty ampemba’o ndra ty divai’o ndra ty mena’o ndra ty valohan’ ana’ ty mpirai-tro’o ndra ty mpirai-lia’o, ndra ze engam-panta nifantà’o, ndra ze enga satrin’ arofo’o, ndra ze engaem-pità’o.
Thou mayest not eat within thy gates the tithe of thy corn, or of thy new wine, or of thine oil, or the firstlings of thy kine or of thy sheep, nor any of thy vows which thou vowest, nor thy voluntary-offerings, nor the heave-offering of thy hand;
18 F’ie ho kamae’o añatrefa’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’o amy toetse ho joboñe’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’oy, ihe naho ty ana-dahy naho anak’ ampela’o naho ty ondevo-lahy naho ampela’o naho i nte-Levy an-tanà’oy; vaho hirebek’ añatrefa’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’o irehe amy ze hene tolom-pità’o.
but before Jehovah thy God shalt thou eat them in the place which Jehovah thy God will choose, thou and thy son, and thy daughter, and thy bondman, and thy handmaid, and the Levite that is within thy gates; and thou shalt rejoice before Jehovah thy God in all the business of thy hand.
19 Mitomira tsy haforintse’o i nte-Leviy, te ihe mbe veloñe an-tane atoy.
Take heed to thyself that thou forsake not the Levite all the days thou shalt be in thy land.
20 Aa ie ampigadagadañe’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’o ty tane’o amy nitsarà’e ama’oy, le hanao ty hoe irehe: Hihinan-kena iraho, aa kanao hasijim-bata’o, le mete mikama hena irehe, ze hadrao’o iaby.
When Jehovah thy God shall enlarge thy border, as he promised thee, and thou say, I will eat flesh, because thy soul longeth to eat flesh, thou mayest eat flesh, according to all the desire of thy soul.
21 Aa ie lavitse azo i toetse jinobo’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’o hampipoha’e i tahina’eiy, le handenta amo mpirai-tro’oo irehe naho amo mpirai-lia’o natolo’ Iehovà azoo amy nandiliako azoy, le hikama an-tanà’o ao ze satrie’ ty tro’o,
If the place which Jehovah thy God will choose to set his name there be too far from thee, then thou shalt slay of thy kine and of thy sheep which Jehovah hath given thee, as I have commanded thee, and thou shalt eat in thy gates according to all the desire of thy soul.
22 manahake ty fikamañe o tsebý naho o aiàleo ty hikama’o aze; le songa mete ikama’ ty malio naho ty tsy malio.
Even as the gazelle and the hart is eaten, so thou shalt eat them: the unclean and the clean alike may eat of them.
23 Fe mifoneña tsy hikama ty lio’e: fa amy lio’ey ty havelo’e, le tsy hatrao’o fikama ami’ty hena i haveloñey.
Only, be sure that thou eat not the blood; for the blood is the life, and thou mayest not eat the life with the flesh;
24 Tsy ho kamae’o izay fa hadoa’o an-tane eo hoe rano.
thou shalt not eat it; thou shalt pour it upon the earth as water:
25 Tsy hikama’o, soa te ho tahie’e irehe naho o ana’o manonjohy azoo ie manao ty fahiti’e am-pivazohoa’ Iehovà.
thou shalt not eat it; that it may go well with thee, and with thy children after thee, when thou shalt do what is right in the eyes of Jehovah.
26 Fe o raha ama’o mete ho navì’oo naho ze nifantà’o ro hendese’o mb’amy toetse ho joboñe’ Iehovày mb’eo.
But thy hallowed things which thou hast, and what thou hast vowed, thou shalt take, and come to the place which Jehovah will choose;
27 Le hengae’o i hisoroña’oy, ty hena’e naho ty lio’e, amy kitreli’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’oy, le hadoa’o amy kitreli’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’oy ty lion’ enga’o vaho ho kamae’o ty hena’e.
and thou shalt offer thy burnt-offerings, the flesh and the blood, upon the altar of Jehovah thy God; and the blood of thy sacrifices shall be poured out upon the altar of Jehovah thy God, and the flesh shalt thou eat.
28 Ambeno naho janjiño o tsara iaby lilieko azoo, soa t’ie hiraorao naho o ana’o handimbe azo kitro añ’afe’eo; ano ty soa naho ty hiti’e am-pivazohoa’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’o.
Take heed to hear all these words which I command thee, that it may be well with thee, and with thy children after thee for ever, when thou doest what is good and right in the eyes of Jehovah thy God.
29 Aa ie aitoa’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’o aolo’o o fifeheañe handenà’o ho tavane’oo naho limbeza’o vaho fa mimoneñ’ an-tane’ iareo ao,
When Jehovah thy God cutteth off from before thee the nations whither thou goest, to take possession of them, and thou hast dispossessed them, and dwellest in their land,
30 le mitaoa tsy ho tra-pandrike ami’ty fitsikombea’o iareo, ie mongoreñe aolo’o eo, le ko añontanea’o o ndrahare’ iareoo ami’ty hoe, Aa vaho akore ty fitoroña’ ondaty retìa o ndrahare’ iareoo? hanoeko ka.
take heed to thyself that thou be not ensnared [to follow] after them, after that they are destroyed from before thee; and that thou inquire not after their gods, saying, How did these nations serve their gods? even so will I do likewise.
31 Ko manao izay am’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’o, amy te ze atao hativàñe am’ Iehovà, o raha vata’e heje’eo le fonga nanoe’ iereo amo ndrahare’ iareoo mbore sinodo’ iareo añ’afo ao amo ndrahare’eo o ana-dahi’eo naho o anak’ampela’eo.
Thou shalt not do so to Jehovah thy God; for every [thing that is] abomination to Jehovah, which he hateth, have they done unto their gods; for even their sons and their daughters have they burned in the fire to their gods.
32 Aa le ambeno naho oriho ze hene andiliako anahareo: ko anovoña’o vaho ko añafaha’o.
Everything that I command you, ye shall take heed to do it; thou shalt not add thereto, nor take from it.
