Keessa Deebii 13
1 Yoo raajiin yookaan namni abjuudhaan waan dhufaa jiru himu tokko gidduu keessanitti argamee mallattoowwan yookaan dinqii isinitti hime,
“When a prophet or a dreamer of a dream arises in your midst, and he has given a sign or wonder to you,
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 the sign and the wonder has come to pass, which he has spoken of to you, saying, Let us go after other gods (which you have not known) and 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.
you do not listen to the words of that prophet or to that dreamer of the dream, for your God YHWH is trying you to know whether you are loving your God YHWH with all your heart and with all your soul;
4 Waaqayyo Waaqa keessan duukaa buʼaa; isa sodaadhaa. Ajajawwan isaa eegaa; isaaf ajajamaa; isa tajaajilaa; isattis maxxanaa.
you walk after your God YHWH, and you fear Him, and you keep His commands, and you listen to His voice, and you serve Him, and you cleave to Him.
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 that dreamer of the dream is put to death, for he has spoken apostasy against your God YHWH (who is bringing you out of the land of Egypt, and has ransomed you out of a house of servants), to drive you out of the way in which your God YHWH has commanded you to walk, and you have put away evil from your midst.
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,
When your brother, son of your mother, or your son, or your daughter, or the wife of your bosom, or your friend who [is] as your own soul, moves you in secret, saying, Let us go and serve other gods (which you have not known, you and your 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 the gods of the peoples who [are] around you, who are near to you, or who are far off from you, from the end of the earth even to the [other] end of the earth),
8 tole hin jedhiniif yookaan isa hin dhagaʼin. Hin naʼiniif. Isaaf hin hilin yookaan harka irra hin qabin.
you do not consent to him, nor listen to him, nor does your eye have pity on him, nor do you spare, nor do you cover him over.
9 Ati isa ajjeesuu qabda. Isa ajjeesuufis jalqabatti harki kee, itti aansees harki saba hundaa haa kaʼu.
But you surely kill him; your hand is on him in the first place to put him to death, and the hand of all the people last;
10 Waan inni akka ati Waaqayyo Waaqa kee kan Gibxi, biyya garbummaatii si baase sana irraa garagaltu godheef dhagaadhaan tumii isa ajjeesi.
and you have stoned him with stones and he has died, for he has sought to drive you away from your God YHWH, who is bringing you out of the land of Egypt, out of a house of servants;
11 Ergasii Israaʼeloonni hundi dhagaʼanii ni sodaatu; si gidduudhaas eenyu iyyuu deebiʼee waan hamaa akkasii hin hojjetu.
and all Israel hears and fears, and does not add to do like this evil thing in your midst.
12 Yoo ati magaalaawwan akka ati keessa jiraattuuf Waaqayyo Waaqni kee siif kennu keessaa tokkotti iyyuu utuu akkas jedhamuu dhageesse,
When you hear [someone] in one of your cities, which your God YHWH is giving to you to dwell there, saying,
13 yoo namoonni hamoon isin gidduudhaa kaʼanii, “Kottaa waaqota biraa kanneen isin hin beekne waaqeffannaa” jedhanii saba magaalaa isaanii dogoggorsu taʼe,
Men, sons of worthlessness, have gone out of your midst, and they force away the inhabitants of their city, saying, Let us go and serve other gods (which you have not known),
14 dubbii sana iyyaafadhu; qoradhu; sirriitti gaafadhu. Kunoo, yoo dubbiin sun dhugaa taʼee wanni jibbisiisaan kun gidduu keetti hojjetamuun isaa mirkanaaʼe,
then you have inquired, and searched, and asked diligently, and behold, [if] truth, the thing is established; this abomination has been done in your midst—
15 ati namoota magaalaa sana keessa jiraatan hunda goraadeedhaan fixi; magaalaa sana illee namoota isheetii fi horii ishee wajjin guutumaan guutuutti barbadeessi.
you surely strike the inhabitants of that city by the mouth of the sword, devoting it and all that [is] in it, even its livestock, by the mouth of the sword.
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 you gather all its spoil into the midst of its broad place, and have completely burned the city and all its spoil with fire for your God YHWH, and it has been a continuous heap, it is not built anymore;
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 nothing from any of that [which is] devoted stays in your hand, so that YHWH turns back from the fierceness of His anger, and has given mercies to you, and loved you, and multiplied you, as He has sworn to your fathers,
18 kunis waan ati ajajawwan isaa kanneen ani harʼa siif kennu hunda eegdee fuula isaa duratti waan qajeelaa hojjechuudhaan Waaqayyo Waaqa keetiif ajajamtuuf.
because you listen to the voice of your God YHWH, to keep all his commands which I am commanding you today, to do that which [is] right in the eyes of your God YHWH.”
