Keessa Deebii 14
1 Isin ijoollee Waaqayyo Waaqa keessanii ti. Nama duʼeef jettanii of hin murmurinaa yookaan rifeensa adda keessaniin oli jiru hin haaddatinaa;
“Be sons of the Lord your God. You shall not cut yourselves, nor make yourselves bald, because of the dead.
2 ati Waaqayyo Waaqa keetiif saba qulqulluudhaatii. Waaqayyo akka ati qabeenya isaa jaallatamaa taatuuf jedhee saboota lafa irra jiraatan hunda keessaa si filateera.
For you are a holy people, for the Lord your God. And he chose you, so that you may be a people particularly his, out of all the nations on earth.
3 Ati waan jibbisiisaa tokko illee hin nyaatin.
You shall not eat the things that are unclean.
4 Horiin isin nyaachuu dandeessan kanneenii dha; sangaa, hoolaa, reʼee,
These are the animals which you ought to eat: the ox, and the sheep, and the goat,
5 gadamsa, kuruphee, borofa, reʼee diidaa, waaliyaa, saalaa fi hoolaa tulluu.
the stag and the roe deer, the gazelle, the wild goat, the addax, the antelope, the giraffe.
6 Horii kotteen isaa baqaqee iddoo lamatti gargar qoodame kan halala guuru nyaachuu ni dandeessu.
Every beast which has a hoof divided into two parts and which also chews the cud, you shall eat.
7 Garuu warra halala guuran yookaan warra kottee baqaqaa qaban keessaa gaala, illeettii, yookaan osolee hin nyaatinaa; isaan kunneen halala guuran iyyuu waan kotteen isaanii duudaa taʼeef isaan akka seeraatti isiniif qulqulluu miti.
But those which chew over again, but do not have a divided hoof, you must not eat, such as the camel, the hare, and the hyrax. Since these chew the cud, but do not have a divided the hoof, they shall be unclean to you.
8 Booyyeenis qulqulluu miti; kotteen isaa baqaqaa taʼus booyyeen halala hin guuru. Isin foon isaanii hin nyaatinaa yookaan raqa isaanii hin tuqinaa.
The pig also, since it has a divided hoof, but does not chew over again, shall be unclean. Their flesh shall not be eaten, and you shall not touch their carcasses.
9 Uumamawwan bishaan keessa jiraatan hunda keessaa warra qoochoo fi qola qaban kam iyyuu nyaachuu dandeessu.
These you shall eat out of all that dwells in the waters: whatever has fins and scales, you shall eat.
10 Garuu warra qoochoo fi qola hin qabne kam iyyuu hin nyaatinaa; isaan isiniif qulqulluu miti.
Whatever is without fins and scales, you shall not eat, for these are unclean.
11 Isin simbira qulqulluu kam iyyuu nyaachuu dandeessu.
All the clean birds, you shall eat.
12 Isaan kanneen garuu hin nyaatinaa; isaanis risaa, rumicha, rumicha gurraacha,
You shall not eat those that are unclean: such as the eagle, and the griffin, and the osprey,
13 culullee, culullee gurraacha, culullee gosa garaa garaa,
the crane, and the vulture, and the kite, according to their kind,
14 arraagessa gosa garaa garaa,
and any kind of raven,
15 guchii, urunguu, allaattii bishaanii, coroffee gosa garaa garaa,
and the ostrich, and the owl, and the gull, and the hawk, according to their kind,
16 urunguu xinnaa, urunguu guddaa, urunguu adii,
the heron, and the swan, and the ibis,
17 urunguu gammoojjii, abbaa koddaa, urunguu guddaa,
and the sea bird, the marsh hen, and the night raven,
18 huummoo, allaattii gosa kamii iyyuu, haadha gaayyeetii fi simbira halkanii ti.
the pelican and the plover, each in their kind, likewise the crested hoopoe and the bat.
19 Ilbiisonni barrisan hundinuu isiniif qulqulluu miti; isaan hin nyaatinaa.
And anything which crawls and also has little wings shall be unclean, and shall not be eaten.
20 Uumamawwan qoochoo qaban kanneen qulqulluu taʼan kam iyyuu garuu nyaachuu dandeessu.
All that is clean, you shall eat.
21 Waan ofii isaatiin duʼe tokko illee hin nyaatin. Akka inni nyaatuuf alagaa magaalaa kee keessa jiraatuuf kenni yookaan nama ormaa tokkotti gurguradhu. Ati garuu saba Waaqayyo Waaqa keetiif qulqulleeffamtee dha. Ilmoo reʼee tokko aannan haadhaa isheetiin hin affeelin.
But whatever has died of itself, you shall not eat from it. Give it to the sojourner, who is within your gates, so that he may eat, or sell it to him. For you are the holy people of the Lord your God. You shall not boil a young goat in the milk of his mother.
22 Waan lafti qotiisaa kee waggaatti kennu hunda keessaa kudhan keessaa tokko kophaatti baasii kaaʼi.
Each year, you shall separate the tithes out of all your crops which spring forth from the earth.
23 Akka Waaqayyo Waaqa kee sodaachuu barattuuf iddoo inni akka Maqaan isaa achi jiraatuuf filatutti midhaan kee, wayinii kee haaraa fi zayitii kee akkasumas hangafa loonii fi bushaayee kee fuula Waaqayyo Waaqa keetii duratti nyaadhu.
And you shall eat these in the sight of the Lord your God, in the place which he will choose, so that his name may be invoked there: the tenth part of your grain and wine and oil, and the firstborn from the herds and your sheep. So may you learn to fear the Lord your God at all times.
24 Garuu yoo iddoon sun akka malee fagaatee, atis Waaqayyo Waaqa keetiin eebbifamtee sababii iddoon Waaqayyo akka Maqaan isaa achi jiraatuuf filatu sun fagoo taʼeef kennaa kee kudhan keessaa tokko baachuu dadhabde,
But when the way and the place which the Lord your God will have chosen is further away, and he will have blessed you, so that you are not able to carry all these things to it,
25 kennaa kee kan kudhan keessaa tokko sana meetiitti geeddariitii, meetii sana qabadhuutii iddoo Waaqayyo Waaqni kee filatu dhaqi.
you shall sell them all, so as to turn them into money, and you shall carry it in your hand, and you shall set out for the place which the Lord will choose.
26 Meetii sanaanis waanuma feete jechuunis, loon, hoolota, daadhii wayinii yookaan dhugaatii jabaa, yookaan waan barbaadde kam iyyuu biti. Ergasii atii fi warri mana keetii fuula Waaqayyo Waaqa keetii duratti nyaadhaa gammadaa.
And you shall buy with the same money whatever pleases you, either from the herds or from the sheep, and also wine and liquor, and all that your soul desires. And you shall eat in the sight of the Lord your God, and you shall feast: you and your household.
27 Lewwonni magaalaa kee keessa jiraatan qooda yookaan dhaala ofii isaanii waan hin qabneef ati isaan hin dagatin.
As for the Levite, who is within your gates, take care that you do not abandon him, for he has no other portion within your possession.
28 Yeroo hunda dhuma waggaa sadaffaatti waan waggaa sana keessa galfatte kudhan keessaa tokko fuudhiitii magaalaawwan keessatti kuusi.
In the third year, you shall separate another tenth part of all the things which spring forth for you at that time, and you shall store it within your gates.
29 Kunis akka Lewwonni qooda yookaan dhaala ofii isaanii hin qabne, alagoonni, ijoolleen abbaa hin qabnee fi niitonni dhirsoonni isaanii irraa duʼan warri magaalaawwan keessa jiraatan nyaatanii quufanii fi akka Waaqayyo Waaqni kee hojii harka keetii hundaan si eebbisuuf.
And the Levite, who has no other portion or possession with you, and the sojourner as well as the orphan and the widow who are within your gates, shall approach and eat and be satisfied, so that the Lord your God may bless you in all the works of your hands which you shall do.”
