Keessa Deebii 13
1 Yoo raajiin yookaan namni abjuudhaan waan dhufaa jiru himu tokko gidduu keessanitti argamee mallattoowwan yookaan dinqii isinitti hime,
If there rise in the midst of thee a prophet or one that saith he hath dreamed a dream, and he foretell a sign and a wonder,
2 yoo mallattoon yookaan dinqii inni isinitti hime sun raawwatamee innis, “Kottu waaqota biraa kanneen ati duraan hin beekne duukaa buunee haa waaqeffannu” siin jedhe,
And that come to pass which he spoke, and he say to thee: Let us go and follow strange gods, which thou knowest not, and let us serve them:
3 ati dubbii raajii yookaan nama abjootu sanaa hin dhaggeeffatin; Waaqayyo Waaqni kee akka isin garaa keessan guutuu fi yaada keessan guutuudhaan isa jaallattan qoruuf waan kana godhaatii.
Thou shalt not hear the words of that prophet or dreamer: for the Lord your God trieth you, that it may appear whether you love him with all your heart, and with all your soul, or not.
4 Waaqayyo Waaqa keessan duukaa buʼaa; isa sodaadhaa. Ajajawwan isaa eegaa; isaaf ajajamaa; isa tajaajilaa; isattis maxxanaa.
Follow the Lord your God, and fear him, and keep his commandments, and hear his voice: him you shall serve, and to him you shall cleave.
5 Raajaan yookaan namichi abjuu abjootu sun, sababii akka isin Waaqayyo Waaqa keessan kan biyya Gibxiitii isin baasee biyya garbummaa jalaa isin fure sanatti finciltan dubbateef ajjeefamuu qaba; inni karaa Waaqayyo Waaqni keessan akka duukaa buutan isin ajaje irraa isin jalʼisuuf yaaleera; hamaa of keessaa balleessi.
And that prophet or forger of dreams shall be slain: because he spoke to draw you away from the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, and redeemed you from the house of bondage: to make thee go out of the way, which the Lord thy God commanded thee: and thou shalt take away the evil out of the midst of thee.
6 Yoo obboleessi kee yookaan ilmi kee yookaan intalli kee yookaan niitiin kee kan ati jaallattu yookaan michuun kee, “Kottu waaqota biraa kanneen atis taatu abbootiin kee hin beekin waaqeffannaa” jedhee dhoksaadhaan si dogoggorsuu barbaade,
If thy brother the son of thy mother, or thy son, or daughter, or thy wife that is in thy bosom, or thy friend, whom thou lovest as thy own soul, would persuade thee secretly, saying: Let us go, and serve strange gods, which thou knowest not, nor thy fathers,
7 yoo inni waaqota saboota naannoo keetii, kanneen dhiʼoo yookaan fagoo jiran, warra daarii lafaa tokkoo hamma daarii lafaa kaaniitti jiranii waaqeffanna, siin jedhe,
Of all the nations round about, that are near or afar off, from one end of the earth to the other,
8 tole hin jedhiniif yookaan isa hin dhagaʼin. Hin naʼiniif. Isaaf hin hilin yookaan harka irra hin qabin.
Consent not to him, hear him not, neither let thy eye spare him to pity and conceal him,
9 Ati isa ajjeesuu qabda. Isa ajjeesuufis jalqabatti harki kee, itti aansees harki saba hundaa haa kaʼu.
But thou shalt presently put him to death. It Let thy hand be first upon him, and afterwards the hands of all the people.
10 Waan inni akka ati Waaqayyo Waaqa kee kan Gibxi, biyya garbummaatii si baase sana irraa garagaltu godheef dhagaadhaan tumii isa ajjeesi.
With stones shall he be stoned to death: because he would have withdrawn thee from the Lord thy God, who brought thee out of the land of Egypt, from the house of bondage:
11 Ergasii Israaʼeloonni hundi dhagaʼanii ni sodaatu; si gidduudhaas eenyu iyyuu deebiʼee waan hamaa akkasii hin hojjetu.
That all Israel hearing may fear, and may do no more any thing like this.
12 Yoo ati magaalaawwan akka ati keessa jiraattuuf Waaqayyo Waaqni kee siif kennu keessaa tokkotti iyyuu utuu akkas jedhamuu dhageesse,
If in one of thy cities, which the Lord thy God shall give thee to dwell in, thou hear some say:
13 yoo namoonni hamoon isin gidduudhaa kaʼanii, “Kottaa waaqota biraa kanneen isin hin beekne waaqeffannaa” jedhanii saba magaalaa isaanii dogoggorsu taʼe,
Children of Belial are gone out of the midst of thee, and have withdrawn the inhabitants of their city, and have said: Let us go, and serve strange gods which you know not:
14 dubbii sana iyyaafadhu; qoradhu; sirriitti gaafadhu. Kunoo, yoo dubbiin sun dhugaa taʼee wanni jibbisiisaan kun gidduu keetti hojjetamuun isaa mirkanaaʼe,
Inquire carefully and diligently, the truth of the thing by looking well into it, and if thou find that which is said to be certain, and that this abomination hath been really committed,
15 ati namoota magaalaa sana keessa jiraatan hunda goraadeedhaan fixi; magaalaa sana illee namoota isheetii fi horii ishee wajjin guutumaan guutuutti barbadeessi.
Thou shalt forthwith kill the inhabitants of that city with the edge of the sword, and shalt destroy it and all things that are in it, even the cattle.
16 Miʼa boojuu kan magaalaa sanaa argame hunda walakkaa oobdii isheetti walitti qabiitii magaalaa sana guutuu boojuu ishee wajjin Waaqayyo Waaqa keetiif aarsaa guutummaan gubamu godhiitii gubi. Isheen bara baraan barbadooftee haa haftu; deebitees hin ijaaramin.
And all the household goods that are there, thou shalt gather together in the midst of the streets thereof, and shalt burn them with the city itself, so as to consume all for the Lord thy God, and that it be a heap for ever: it shall be built no more.
17 Akka Waaqayyo dheekkamsa isaa sodaachisaa irraa deebiʼuuf wanni abaarame tokko harka keetti hin argamin; inni siif araarama; garaa siif laafa; akkuma abbootii keetiif kakatetti si baayʼisa;
And there shall nothing of that anathema stick to thy hand: that the Lord may turn from the wrath of his fury, and may have mercy on thee, and multiply thee as he swore to thy fathers,
18 kunis waan ati ajajawwan isaa kanneen ani harʼa siif kennu hunda eegdee fuula isaa duratti waan qajeelaa hojjechuudhaan Waaqayyo Waaqa keetiif ajajamtuuf.
When thou shalt hear the voice of the Lord thy God, keeping all his precepts, which I command thee this day, that thou mayst do what is pleasing in the sight of the Lord thy God.
