< Keessa Deebii 21 >
1 Yoo namni tokko biyya Waaqayyo Waaqni kee akka dhaaltuuf siif kennu keessatti duʼee argamee namni isa ajjeese hin beekamin,
If one be founde slaine in the lande, which the Lord thy God giueth thee to possesse it, lying in the field, and it is not knowe who hath slaine him,
2 maanguddoonni keetii fi abbootiin murtii kee dhaqanii fageenya iddoo inni itti duʼee fi magaalaawwan itti dhiʼaatan gidduu jiru haa safaran.
Then thine Elders and thy Iudges shall come forth, and measure vnto the cities that are round about him that is slayne.
3 Ergasiis maanguddoonni magaalaa reeffichatti aantu keessa jiraatan goromsa takkumaa hin hojjetin kan waanjoo hin baatin fuudhanii
Aud let ye Elders of that citie, which is next vnto the slaine man, take out of the droue an heifer that hath not bene put to labour, nor hath drawen in the yoke.
4 goromsa sana gara sulula hin qotamin yookaan wanni tokko iyyuu irra hin facaafamin kan bishaan yaaʼu qabuutti haa geessan. Sulula sana keessattis morma goromsa sanaa haa cabsan.
And let the Elders of that citie bring the heifer vnto a stonie valley, which is neyther eared nor sowen, and strike off the heifers necke there in the valley.
5 Luboonni jechuunis ilmaan Lewwii sababii akka tajaajilanii fi akka maqaa Waaqayyootiin eebbisaniif, akka dubbii wal dhabiisaatii fi miidhaa dhagnaa kami irratti iyyuu murtii kennaniif Waaqayyo Waaqa keetiin filatamaniif isaan fuulduraatti haa dhiʼaatan.
Also the Priests the sonnes of Leui (whom the Lord thy God hath chosen to minister, and to blesse in the name of the Lord) shall come forth, and by their word shall all strife and plague be tried.
6 Ergasii maanguddoonni magaalaa reeffichatti baayʼee dhiʼaatuu hundi goromsa sulula keessatti mormi cabsame sana irratti harka isaanii haa dhiqatan.
And all the Elders of that citie that came neere to the slayne man, shall wash their hands ouer the heifer that is beheaded in the valley:
7 Isaanis akkana haa jedhan: “Harki keenya dhiiga kana hin dhangalaafne yookaan yommuu wanni kun hojjetame iji keenya hin argine.
And shall testifie, and say, Our handes haue not shed this blood, neither haue our eies seene it.
8 Yaa Waaqayyo, aarsaa araaraa kana saba kee Israaʼel kan furte sanaaf fudhadhu; dhiiga nama qulqulluu kanaas saba keetti hin herregin. Yakkii dhiiga dhangalaafamees isaanii haa dhiifamu.
O Lord, be mercifull vnto thy people Israel, whom thou hast redeemed, and lay no innocent blood to the charge of thy people Israel, and the blood shalbe forgiuen them.
9 Atis sababii waan fuula Waaqayyoo duratti qajeelaa taʼe hojjetteef yakka dhangalaafamuu dhiiga nama qajeelaa akkasiin gidduu keetii ni balleessita.”
So shalt thou take away the cry of innocet blood from thee, when thou shalt do that which is right in the sight of the Lord.
10 Ati yommuu diinota kee loluuf duultee Waaqayyo Waaqni kee dabarsee harka keetti isaan siif kennee boojuu fudhattutti,
Whe thou shalt go to warre against thine enemies, and the Lord thy God shall deliuer them into thine hands, and thou shalt take the captiues,
11 yoo warra boojiʼaman keessatti dubartii bareedduu tokko argitee ishee jaallatte niitii ofii keetii godhattee ishee fuudhuu dandeessa.
And shalt see among the captiues a beautifull woman, and hast a desire vnto her, and wouldest take her to thy wife,
12 Mana keetti ishee galchi; isheenis mataa ishee haa haaddattu; qeensa ishees haa qorattu;
Then thou shalt bring her home to thine house, and she shall shaue her head, and pare her nayles,
13 uffata isheen yeroo boojiʼamtetti uffachaa turtes irraa baasi. Erga isheen mana kee keessa jiraattee jiʼa tokko guutuu abbaa fi haadha isheetiif boossee booddee ati ishee wajjin ciiftee dhirsa ishee taʼuu dandeessa; isheenis niitii kee ni taati.
And she shall put off the garment that shee was taken in, and she shall remaine in thine house, and bewaile her father and her mother a moneth long: and after that shalt thou go in vnto her, and marry her, and she shalbe thy wife.
14 Ati yoo isheetti gammaduu baatte akka isheen gara feete deemtu gad dhiisi. Ati waan ishee salphifteef ishee gurguruu yookaan akka garbittiitti ishee ilaaluu hin qabdu.
And if thou haue no fauour vnto her, then thou mayest let her go whither she will, but thou shalt not sell her for money, nor make marchandise of her, because thou hast humbled her.
15 Namni tokko yoo niitota lama qabaatee ishee tokko jaallatee garuu lamaan isaanii iyyuu ilmaan daʼaniif, yoo ilmi hangafni niitii inni hin jaallanne sana irraa dhalate,
If a man haue two wiues, one loued and another hated, and they haue borne him children, both the loued and also the hated: if the first borne be the sonne of the hated,
16 namichi yommuu qabeenya isaa ilmaan isaatiif qoodutti mirga hangafummaa ilma niitii jibbe sanaa ilma niitii jaallatuutiif dabarsee kennuu hin qabu.
Then when the time commeth, that hee appointeth his sonnes to be heires of that which he hath, he may not make the sonne of the beloued first borne before the sonne of the hated, which is the first borne:
17 Garuu ilma hangafticha niitii hin jaallanne sana irraa dhalcheef qooda dhaala isaa keessaa harka lama kennuufiidhaan isa beeksisuu qaba. Ilmi sun mallattoo jalqabaa kan jabina abbaa isaa ti. Mirgi hangafummaa kan isaa ti.
But he shall acknowledge the sonne of the hated for the first borne, and giue him double portion of all that he hath: for hee is the first of his strength, and to him belongeth the right of the first borne.
18 Namni tokko yoo ilma mata jabeessaa fi fincilaa abbaa fi haadha isaatiif hin ajajamnee fi kan yommuu isa adaban hin dhageenye qabaate,
If any man haue a sonne that is stubburne and disobedient, which wil not hearken vnto the voice of his father, nor the voyce of his mother, and they haue chastened him, and he would not obey them,
19 abbaa fi haati isaa qabanii balbala magaalaa isaa duratti maanguddootatti isa haa fidan.
Then shall his father and his mother take him, and bring him out vnto the Elders of his citie, and vnto the gate of the place where he dwelleth,
20 Isaanis, “Gurbaan keenya kun mata jabeessaa fi fincilaa dha; nuuf hin ajajamu; inni albaadhessaa fi machooftuu dha” jedhanii maanguddootatti haa himan.
And shall say vnto the Elders of his citie, This our sonne is stubburne and disobedient, and he wil not obey our admonition: he is a riotour, and a drunkard.
21 Ergasiis namoonni magaalaa isaa hundi dhagaadhaan tumanii isa ajjeesu. Ati hamaa of gidduudhaa baasuu qabda. Israaʼeloonni hundi waan kana dhagaʼanii ni sodaatu.
Then all the men of his citie shall stone him with stones vnto death: so thou shalt take away euill from among you, that all Israel may heare it, and feare.
22 Yoo namni tokko cubbuu adabbii duʼa isatti mursiisu hojjetee ajjeefamee reeffi isaa mukatti fannifame,
If a man also haue committed a trespasse worthy of death, and is put to death, and thou hangest him on a tree,
23 ati reeffa isaa muka irra bulchuu hin qabdu. Waan namni muka irratti fannifamu abaarsa Waaqaa jala jiruuf isa gaafuma sana awwaali. Ati biyya Waaqayyo Waaqni kee akka dhaalaatti siif kennu hin xureessin.
His body shall not remaine all night vpon the tree, but thou shalt bury him the same day: for the curse of God is on him that is hanged. Defile not therfore thy land which the Lord thy God giueth thee to inherite.
