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 the regulations which ye must observe to do, in the land which Yahweh the God of thy fathers hath given unto thee, to possess it, —all the days that ye are living upon the soil:
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 must utterly destroy, all the places where the nations whom ye are dispossessing 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 must tear down their altars And break in pieces their pillars, And, their sacred stems, must ye consume with fire, And the carved images of their gods, must ye fell to the ground, —And destroy their name out of that place.
4 F’ie tsy hanoe’ areo am’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’ areo,
Ye must not do thus unto Yahweh 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 Yahweh your God shall choose out of all your tribes, to put his name there, —as his habitation, shall ye ask your way, and come in thither;
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 bring in thither your ascending-offerings and your sacrifices, and your tithes, and the heave-offering of your hand, —and your vow-offerings and your freewill-offerings, and the firstlings of your herd and of your flock;
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 shall eat there before Yahweh your God, and rejoice in all whereunto ye are putting your hand, Ye, and your households, —wherewith Yahweh 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 must not do according to all that we are doing here to-day, —every man, whatsoever is right in his own eyes.
9 amy te mboe tsy niheova’ areo i fitofàñe naho lova atolo’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’ areo azoy.
Because ye have not entered as yet, —into the resting-place and into the inheritance which Yahweh thy God is giving unto 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 shall pass over the Jordan, and settle down in the land which, Yahweh your God, is causing you to inherit, —and he shall give you rest from all your enemies round about, and ye shall dwell securely,
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 shall it be, that unto the place which Yahweh your God shall choose to make a habitation for his name there, thither, shall ye bring in all that I am commanding you, —your ascending-offerings and your sacrifices your tithes and the heave-offering of your hand, and all your chosen vow-offerings which ye shall vow unto Yahweh.
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.
So shall ye rejoice before Yahweh your God, Ye, and your sons, and your daughters, and your servants and your handmaids, —and the Levite that is within your gates, forasmuch as he hath neither portion nor inheritance with you.
13 Mitomira tsy hañenga soroñe amy ze toetse isa’o añe,
Take heed to thyself, lest thou cause thine ascending-sacrifice to go up in just any place which thou shalt see;
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 Yahweh shall choose in one of thy tribes, there, shalt thou cause thine ascending-sacrifice to go up, and, there, shalt thou do all that I am commanding 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.
Howbeit of anything thy soul desireth, mayest thou sacrifice and so eat flesh—according to the blessing of Yahweh thy God which he hath bestowed upon thee, in all thy gates, the unclean and the clean may eat thereof, —as the gazelle and as the hart,
16 Fe tsy ho kamae’o ty lio’e; fa hadoa’o an-tane hoe rano.
Howbeit, the blood, shall ye not eat, —upon the earth, shalt thou pour it out, like 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 herd, or of thy flock, —nor any of thy vow-offerings which thou shalt vow, nor thy freewill, 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 Yahweh thy God, shalt thou eat it in the place which Yahweh thy God shall choose, thou and thy son and thy daughter, and thy servant and thy handmaid, and the Levite who is within thy gates, —so shalt thou rejoice before Yahweh thy God, in all whereunto thou puttest thy hand.
19 Mitomira tsy haforintse’o i nte-Leviy, te ihe mbe veloñe an-tane atoy.
Take heed to thyself, lest thou forsake the Levite, —all thy days upon thy soil.
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 Yahweh thy God shall enlarge thy boundary—as he hath spoken unto thee—and thou shalt say. I would eat flesh because thy soul desireth to eat flesh, of whatsoever thy soul desireth, mayest thou eat flesh.
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,
When the place which Yahweh thy God shall choose to put his name there, shall be, too far for thee, then shalt thou sacrifice of thy herd or of thy flock which Yahweh hath given unto thee, as I have commanded thee, —and shalt eat, within thine own gates, of whatsoever thy soul desireth.
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, shalt thou eat it, —the unclean and the clean, alike shall eat it.
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.
Howbeit firmly refrain from eating the blood; for the blood, is the life, —therefore must thou 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, —upon the earth, shalt thou pour it out, like 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 be well with thee and with thy children after thee when thou shalt do that which is right in the eyes of Yahweh.
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.
Howbeit, thy holy things which thou shalt have and thy vow-offerings, shalt thou take and come in, unto the place which Yahweh shall 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 shalt offer thine ascending-sacrifices, the flesh and the blood, upon the altar of Yahweh thy God, —and the blood of thine [other] sacrifices, shall be poured out upon the altar of Yahweh thy God, and then 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.
Observe and hear all these things which I am commanding thee, —that it may be well with thee and with thy children after thee, —unto times age-abiding, so long as thou shalt do that which is pleasing and right in the eyes of Yahweh 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 Yahweh thy God shall cut off from before thee, the nations Whom thou art going in to dispossess, —and thou do dispossess them, and dwell 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 lest thou be thrust after them, after they have been destroyed from before thee, —and lest thou enquire after their gods, saying—In what manner, did these nations serve their gods, that, I too, may 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 likewise unto Yahweh thy God, —for everything that is an abomination unto Yahweh which he doth hate, have they done unto their gods, for even their sons and their daughters, do they consume with fire unto their gods.
32 Aa le ambeno naho oriho ze hene andiliako anahareo: ko anovoña’o vaho ko añafaha’o.
Whatsoever be the thing which I am commanding you, the same, shall ye observe to do, —thou shalt neither add thereunto, nor take away therefrom.
