No man with crushed or severed genitals may enter the assembly of the LORD.
2 Namni haraamuudhaan dhalate yookaan sanyiin isaa kam iyyuu hamma dhaloota kurnaffaatti waldaa Waaqayyoo hin seenin.
No one of illegitimate birth may enter the assembly of the LORD, nor may any of his descendants, even to the tenth generation.
3 Namni gosa Amoon yookaan gosa Moʼaab yookaan sanyiin isaa kam iyyuu hamma dhaloota kurnaffaatti waldaa Waaqayyoo hin seenin.
No Ammonite or Moabite or any of their descendants may enter the assembly of the LORD, even to the tenth generation.
4 Isaan yeroo ati Gibxii baatetti karaa irratti buddeenaan yookaan bishaaniin si hin simanne; qooda kanaa akka inni si abaaruuf Balaʼaam ilma Beʼoor namicha biyya Phetoor ishee Phaadaan Arraamitti argamtu sana keessa jiraatu sitti bitan.
For they did not meet you with food and water on your way out of Egypt, and they hired Balaam son of Beor from Pethor in Aram-naharaim to curse you.
5 Taʼus Waaqayyo Waaqni kee abaarsa sana eebbatti siif geeddare malee Balaʼaamin hin dhageenye; Waaqayyo Waaqni kee si jaallataatii.
Yet the LORD your God would not listen to Balaam, and the LORD your God turned the curse into a blessing for you, because the LORD your God loves you.
6 Ati hamma lubbuudhaan jirtutti akka isaan nageenyaa fi badhaadhummaa qabaatan hin barbaadin.
You are not to seek peace or prosperity from them as long as you live.
7 Waan inni obboleessa kee taʼeef nama gosa Edoom hin tuffatin. Ati sababii akka alagaatti biyya isaa keessa jiraatteef nama Gibxi hin tuffatin.
Do not despise an Edomite, for he is your brother. Do not despise an Egyptian, because you lived as a foreigner in his land.
8 Ijoolleen dhaloota sadaffaa kanneen isaaniif dhalatan waldaa Waaqayyoo seenuu ni dandaʼu.
The third generation of children born to them may enter the assembly of the LORD.
9 Yommuu diinota kee loluuf baatutti xuraaʼummaa hunda irraa of eegi.
When you are encamped against your enemies, then you shall keep yourself from every wicked thing.
10 Namni tokko yoo halkan afeetaa dhangalaasuudhaan of xureesse inni qubata keessaa gad baʼee ala haa turu.
If any man among you becomes unclean because of a nocturnal emission, he must leave the camp and stay outside.
11 Gara galgalaa garuu dhiqatee yeroo aduun dhiitutti gara qubataatti haa deebiʼu.
When evening approaches, he must wash with water, and when the sun sets he may return to the camp.
12 Ati qubataan alatti lafa itti gad baatu qopheeffadhu.
You must have a place outside the camp to go and relieve yourself.
13 Meeshaa kee keessaa waan ittiin lafa qottu qabaadhu; ati yommuu gad teessee kaatutti boolla qotiitii biyyoo itti deebisi.
And you must have a digging tool in your equipment so that when you relieve yourself you can dig a hole and cover up your excrement.
14 Waaqayyo Waaqni kee si eeguu fi diinota kee dabarsee sitti kennuudhaaf qubata kee keessa deddeebiʼaatii; akka inni gidduu keetti waan xuraaʼaa argee sirraa hin deebineef qubanni kee qulqulluu taʼuu qaba.
For the LORD your God walks throughout your camp to protect you and deliver your enemies to you. Your camp must be holy, lest He see anything unclean among you and turn away from you.
15 Yoo garbichi tokko kooluu sitti gale, ati dabarsitee gooftaa isaatti isa hin kennin.
Do not return a slave to his master if he has taken refuge with you.
16 Inni gidduu kee lafa jaallatee fi magaalaa filate keessa haa jiraatu. Atis isa hin cunqursin.
Let him live among you wherever he chooses, in the town of his pleasing. Do not oppress him.
17 Dhiirri yookaan dubartiin Israaʼel kam iyyuu sagaagaltuu mana waaqa tolfamaa hin taʼin.
No daughter or son of Israel is to be a shrine prostitute.
18 Dubartii yookaan dhiira sagaagalu tokko irraa akka galchaatti kennaa fuutee mana Waaqayyo Waaqa keetiitti hin fidin; lachan isaanii iyyuu fuula Waaqayyo Waaqa keetii duratti jibbisiisoo dhaatii.
You must not bring the wages of a prostitute, whether female or male, into the house of the LORD your God to fulfill any vow, because both are detestable to the LORD your God.
19 Ati maallaqa yookaan nyaata yookaan waan dhala argamsiisu kam iyyuu dhalaan obboleessa keetiif hin liqeessin.
Do not charge your brother interest on money, food, or any other type of loan.
20 Ati nama ormaa irraa dhala gaafachuu ni dandeessa; garuu akka Waaqayyo Waaqni kee biyya ati dhaaluuf itti galtutti waan harki kee tuqe hundaan si eebbisuuf obboleessa kee irraa dhala hin fudhatin.
You may charge a foreigner interest, but not your brother, so that the LORD your God may bless you in everything to which you put your hand in the land that you are entering to possess.
21 Ati yoo Waaqayyo Waaqa keetiif wareega tokko wareegde, sababii Waaqayyo Waaqni kee cimsee waan sana sirraa barbaaduuf akka cubbuu sitti hin taaneef dafiitii of irraa baasi malee lafa irra hin harkisin.
If you make a vow to the LORD your God, do not be slow to keep it, because He will surely require it of you, and you will be guilty of sin.
22 Yoo wareeguu baatte garuu ati cubbamaa hin taatu.
But if you refrain from making a vow, you will not be guilty of sin.
23 Waan arrabni kee dubbate gochuuf of eeggadhu; afaanuma keetiin jaallattee Waaqayyo Waaqa keetiif wareegdeertaatii.
Be careful to follow through on what comes from your lips, because you have freely vowed to the LORD your God with your own mouth.
24 Ati yoo iddoo dhaabaa wayinii ollaa keetii keessa seente, ija feete hunda nyaadhu; garuu tokko illee guuboo kee keessa hin kaaʼatin.
When you enter your neighbor’s vineyard, you may eat your fill of grapes, but you must not put any in your basket.
25 Yoo lafa qotiisaa midhaan ollaa keetii keessa seente, asheetii cirachuu ni dandeessa; garuu midhaan isaa kan dhaabatutti haamtuu kee hin buusin.
When you enter your neighbor’s grainfield, you may pluck the heads of grain with your hand, but you must not put a sickle to your neighbor’s grain.
