Keessa Deebii 18
1 Luboonni warri Lewwota taʼan jechuunis gosti Lewwii hundi Israaʼel wajjin qooda lafaa yookaan dhaala hin argatan. Isaan aarsaa ibiddaan Waaqayyoof dhiʼaatu irraa haa nyaatan; kun qooda isaaniitii.
The priests, the Levites, even the whole tribe of Levi, shall have no part nor inheritance with Israel; the burnt offerings of the Lord [are] their inheritance, they shall eat them.
2 Isaan obboloota isaanii gidduutti dhaala tokko iyyuu hin qabaatin; akkuma inni isaan abdachiisetti Waaqayyo dhaala isaaniitii.
And they shall have no inheritance among their brethren; the Lord himself [is] his portion, as he said to him.
3 Qoodni luboonni saba aarsaa kormaa yookaan hoolaa dhiʼeessu irraa argachuu malan foon harkaa, kan mangaagaatii fi miʼa garaa ti.
And this [is] the due of the priests in the things coming from the people from those who offer sacrifices, whether it be a calf or a sheep; and you shall give the shoulder to the priest, and the cheeks, and the great intestine:
4 Mataa midhaan keetii, daadhii wayinii haaraa fi zayitii kee kan jalqabaa akkasumas suufii jalqabaa kan hoolaa kee irraa haaddu isaanii kennuu qabda;
and the first fruits of your corn, and of your wine, and of your oil; and you shall give to him the first fruits of the fleeces of your sheep:
5 kunis sababii Waaqayyo Waaqni kee akka isaan yeroo hunda dhaabatanii maqaa Waaqayyootiin tajaajilaniif gosoota kee hunda keessaa sanyii isaanii filateef.
because the Lord has chosen him out of all your tribes, to stand before the Lord your God, to minister and bless in his name, himself and his sons among the children of Israel.
6 Lewwichi tokko yoo magaalaawwan kee kanneen guutummaa Israaʼel keessatti argaman kam iyyuu keessaa iddoo jiraatuu baʼee garaa guutuudhaan iddoo Waaqayyo Waaqni filatu dhufe,
And if a Levite come from one of the cities of all the children of Israel, where he himself dwells, accordingly as his mind desires, to the place which he shall have chosen,
7 innis akkuma Lewwota fuula Waaqayyoo dura dhaabatanii tajaajilaniitti achitti maqaa Waaqayyo Waaqa isaatiin haa tajaajilu.
he shall minister to the name of the Lord his God, as all his brethren the Levites, who stand there present before the Lord your God.
8 Inni qabeenya maatii isaa kan gurguramu irraa maallaqa argatu illee Lewwota michoota isaa wajjin faayidaa argamu wal qixxee hirmaachuu qaba.
He shall eat an allotted portion, besides the sale of his hereditary property.
9 Ati yommuu biyya Waaqayyo Waaqni kee siif kennutti galtutti, hojii balfamaa saboonni achi jiraatan hojjetan sana hojjechuu hin baratin.
And when you shall have entered into the land which the Lord your God gives you, you shall not learn to do according to the abominations of those nations.
10 Namni ilma isaa yookaan intala isaa ibiddatti aarsaa godhu, namni waa himu yookaan falfala hojjetu, namni milkii ilaalu, tolfattuun,
There shall not be found in you one who purges his son or his daughter with fire, one who uses divination, who deals with omens, and augury,
11 yookaan xibaartuun, ilaaltuun yookaan eker dubbistuun yookaan namni nama duʼe wajjin dubbatu tokko iyyuu gidduu keetti hin argamin.
a sorcerer employing incantation, one who has in him a divining spirit, and observer of signs, questioning the dead.
12 Namni waan akkasii hojjetu kam iyyuu fuula Waaqayyoo duratti balfamaa dha; sababii hojii jibbisiisaa kanaatiifis Waaqayyo Waaqni fuula kee duraa saboota ariʼee ni baasa.
For every one that does these things is an abomination to the Lord your God; for because of these abominations the Lord will destroy them from before your face.
13 Ati fuula Waaqayyo Waaqa keetii duratti hirʼina malee jiraachuu qabda.
You shall be perfect before the Lord your God.
14 Saboonni ati lafa isaanii irraa buqqiftu warra falfala hojjetan yookaan warra ilaalanii dha. Garuu akka ati waan akkasii hojjettu Waaqayyo Waaqni kee siif hin eeyyamamne.
For all these nations whose [land] you shall inherit, they will listen to omens and divinations; but the Lord your God has not permitted you so [to do].
15 Waaqayyo Waaqni kee obboloota kee keessaa raajii akka kootii tokko siif kaasa. Atis isa dhagaʼuu qabda.
The Lord your God shall raise up to you a prophet of your brethren, like me; him shall you hear:
16 Wanni ati gaafa waldaan Kooreebitti walitti qabame, “Ani akka hin duuneef lammata sagalee Waaqayyo Waaqa kootii hin dhagaʼu yookaan ibidda guddaa kana siʼachi hin argu” jettee Waaqayyoon Waaqa kee kadhatte kanaatii.
according to all things which you did desire of the Lord your God in Choreb in the day of the assembly, saying, We will not again hear the voice of the Lord your God, and we will not any more see this great fire, and [so] we shall not die.
17 Waaqayyo akkana naan jedhe: “Wanni isaan jedhan gaarii dha.
And the Lord said to me, They have spoken rightly all that they have said to you.
18 Ani raajii akka keetii obboloota isaanii gidduudhaa isaaniif nan kaasa; dubbii koo afaan isaa keessa nan kaaʼa; innis waan ani isa ajaju hunda isaanitti hima.
I will raise up to them a prophet of their brethren, like you; and I will put my words in his mouth, and he shall speak to them as I shall command him.
19 Nama dubbii koo kan raajiin maqaa kootiin dubbatu dhagaʼuu didu kam iyyuu, ani mataan koo isa nan gaafadha.
And whatever man shall not listen to whatever words that prophet shall speak in my name, I will take vengeance on him.
20 Garuu raajiin waan maqaa kootiin dubbatu fakkeessee waan ani akka inni dubbatu isa hin ajajin kam iyyuu dubbatu yookaan kan maqaa waaqota biraatiin dubbatu haa ajjeefamu.”
But the prophet whoever shall impiously speak in my name a word which I have not commanded him to speak, and whoever shall speak in the name of other gods, that prophet shall die.
21 Ati garaa keetti, “Nu dubbii Waaqayyo nutti hin dubbatin akkamitti beekuu dandeenya?” jetta taʼa.
But if you shall say in your heart, How shall we know the word which the Lord has not spoken?
22 Yoo wanni raajiin tokko maqaa Waaqayyootiin dubbate utuu hin guutamin hafe, dubbiin sun dubbii Waaqayyo hin dubbatinii dha. Raajiin sun itti fakkeessee dubbateeraatii isa hin sodaatin.
Whatsoever words that prophet shall speak in the name of the Lord, and they shall not come true, and not come to pass, this [is] the thing which the Lord has not spoken; that prophet has spoken wickedly: you shall not spare him.
