Keessa Deebii 15

1 Ati yeroo hunda dhuma waggaa torbaffaatti gatii namaaf dhiisuu qabda.

At the end of [every] seven years thou shalt make a release.

2 Kunis akkanatti taʼa: namni liqii kennu hundii liqii ollaa isaa nama Israaʼeliif liqeesse dhiisuufii qaba. Sababii yeroon Waaqayyoo kan itti gatiin namaaf dhiifamu labsameef inni ollaa isaa yookaan obboleessa isaa Israaʼelicha irraa waan isaaf liqeesse hin gaafatin.

And this [is] the manner of the release: Every creditor that lendeth [ought] unto his neighbour shall release [it; ] he shall not exact [it] of his neighbour, or of his brother; because it is called the LORD’s release.

3 Ati waan alagaaf liqeessite gaafachuu ni dandeessa; garuu waan obboleessi kee sirraa liqeeffate dhiisuufii qabda.

Of a foreigner thou mayest exact [it again: ] but [that] which is thine with thy brother thine hand shall release;

4 Taʼus waan Waaqayyo Waaqni kee biyya akka ati dhaaltuuf siif kennu irratti akka malee si eebbisuuf hiyyeessi gidduu keetti hin argamu;

Save when there shall be no poor among you; for the LORD shall greatly bless thee in the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee [for] an inheritance to possess it:

5 kunis yoo ati guutumaan guutuutti Waaqayyo Waaqa keetiif ajajamtee fi yoo ati ajajawwan ani harʼa siif kennu kanneen hunda eegde qofa taʼa.

Only if thou carefully hearken unto the voice of the LORD thy God, to observe to do all these commandments which I command thee this day.

6 Waan Waaqayyo Waaqni kee akkuma si abdachiisetti si eebbisuuf ati saboota baayʼeedhaaf liqeessita malee tokko irraa iyyuu hin liqeeffattu. Ati saboota baayʼee bulchita malee isaan si hin bulchan.

For the LORD thy God blesseth thee, as he promised thee: and thou shalt lend unto many nations, but thou shalt not borrow; and thou shalt reign over many nations, but they shall not reign over thee.

7 Magaalaawwan Waaqayyo Waaqni kee siif kennu keessatti yoo obboloota kee gidduu hiyyeessi jiraate obboleessa kee sana irratti garaan kee hin jabaatin yookaan isa gargaaruu irraa harka kee hin deebifatin.

If there be among you a poor man of one of thy brethren within any of thy gates in thy land which the LORD thy God giveth thee, thou shalt not harden thine heart, nor shut thine hand from thy poor brother:

8 Qooda kanaa harka kee isaaf diriirsiitii waan isa gaʼu liqeessiif.

But thou shalt open thine hand wide unto him, and shalt surely lend him sufficient for his need, [in that] which he wanteth.

9 Akka yaadni hamaan, “Waggaan torbaffaan, waggaan itti gatiin namaaf dhiifamu sun dhiʼaateera” jedhu si keessatti kuufamee ati akkasiin obboleessa kee rakkataa ija hamaadhaan ilaaltee gargaaruu hin dhiifne of eeggadhu. Inni Waaqayyotti ol iyyata; kunis cubbuu sitti taʼa.

Beware that there be not a thought in thy wicked heart, saying, The seventh year, the year of release, is at hand; and thine eye be evil against thy poor brother, and thou givest him nought; and he cry unto the LORD against thee, and it be sin unto thee.

10 Ati arjummaadhaan isaaf kenni; yommuu kennituufis garaan kee hin gaabbin; sababii kanaaf Waaqayyo Waaqni kee hojii kee hundaa fi waan harki kee qabate hundaan si eebbisa.

Thou shalt surely give him, and thine heart shall not be grieved when thou givest unto him: because that for this thing the LORD thy God shall bless thee in all thy works, and in all that thou puttest thine hand unto.

11 Yoom iyyuu taanaan hiyyeeyyiin lafa irra ni jiraatu. Kanaafuu ani akka ati harka kee obboloota keetiif, hiyyeeyyii fi rakkattoota biyya keetiitiif diriirfattu sin ajaja.

For the poor shall never cease out of the land: therefore I command thee, saying, Thou shalt open thine hand wide unto thy brother, to thy poor, and to thy needy, in thy land.

12 Yoo namni gosa Ibrootaa, dhiirri yookaan dubartiin sitti gurguramtee waggaa jaʼa siif hojjette, waggaa torbafaatti bilisa baasii gad dhiisi.

[And] if thy brother, an Hebrew man, or an Hebrew woman, be sold unto thee, and serve thee six years; then in the seventh year thou shalt let him go free from thee.

13 Yommuu gad dhiiftuttis harka duwwaa hin geggeessin.

And when thou sendest him out free from thee, thou shalt not let him go away empty:

14 Bushaayee kee keessaa, oobdii fi iddoo cuunfaa wayinii keetii irraa arjummaadhaan kenniif. Akkuma Waaqayyo Waaqni kee si eebbisetti isaaf kenni.

Thou shalt furnish him liberally out of thy flock, and out of thy floor, and out of thy winepress: [of that] wherewith the LORD thy God hath blessed thee thou shalt give unto him.

15 Akka atis biyya Gibxitti garba turtee fi akka Waaqayyo Waaqni kee si fure yaadadhu. Wanni ani harʼa ajaja kana siif kennuufis kanuma.

And thou shalt remember that thou wast a bondman in the land of Egypt, and the LORD thy God redeemed thee: therefore I command thee this thing to day.

16 Garuu yoo garbichi kee sun sababii siʼii fi maatii kee jaallatuuf si wajjin jiraachuun itti tolee, “Ani si dhiisee hin deemu” siin jedhe,

And it shall be, if he say unto thee, I will not go away from thee; because he loveth thee and thine house, because he is well with thee;

17 mutaa fuudhii balbala irratti gurra isaa uri; innis bara baraan garbicha kee taʼa. Garbittii kees akkasuma godhi.

Then thou shalt take an aul, and thrust [it] through his ear unto the door, and he shall be thy servant for ever. And also unto thy maidservant thou shalt do likewise.

18 Garbicha kee bilisoomsuun waan ulfaataa sitti hin fakkaatin; tajaajilli isaa kan waggaa jaʼaa sun gatii nama qaxaramee hojjetu tokkootti harka lama tureetii. Waaqayyo Waaqni kee waan ati hojjetu hundaan si eebbisa.

It shall not seem hard unto thee, when thou sendest him away free from thee; for he hath been worth a double hired servant [to thee], in serving thee six years: and the LORD thy God shall bless thee in all that thou doest.

19 Loonii fi bushaayee kee keessaa korma hangafa hunda Waaqayyo Waaqa keetiif addaan baasi; qotiyyoo kee keessaa hangafaan hin hojjetin; hangafa hoolaa keetii irraa rifeensa hin murin.

All the firstling males that come of thy herd and of thy flock thou shalt sanctify unto the LORD thy God: thou shalt do no work with the firstling of thy bullock, nor shear the firstling of thy sheep.

20 Waggaa waggaadhaan atii fi maatiin kee iddoo Waaqayyo Waaqni kee filatutti fuula isaa duratti isaan nyaattu.

Thou shalt eat [it] before the LORD thy God year by year in the place which the LORD shall choose, thou and thy household.

21 Yoo horiin sun hirʼina qabaate jechuunis yoo inni naafa yookaan jaamaa yookaan mudaa hamaa kam iyyuu qabaate, ati horii sana aarsaa gootee Waaqayyo Waaqa keetiif hin dhiʼeessin.

And if there be [any] blemish therein, [as if it be] lame, or blind, [or have] any ill blemish, thou shalt not sacrifice it unto the LORD thy God.

22 Ati magaalaa kee keessatti nyaadhu. Akkuma waan horiin sun kuruphee yookaan gadamsa taʼeetti namni akka seeraatti qulqulluu hin taʼinii fi kan qulqulluu taʼe nyaachuu dandaʼa.

Thou shalt eat it within thy gates: the unclean and the clean [person shall eat it] alike, as the roebuck, and as the hart.

23 Ati garuu dhiiga sana hin nyaatin; akkuma bishaaniitti lafatti dhangalaasi.

Only thou shalt not eat the blood thereof; thou shalt pour it upon the ground as water.
