Keessa Deebii 23
1 Namni kolaafame yookaan dhagni saala isaa irraa murame kam iyyuu waldaa Waaqayyoo hin seenin.
No man whose private parts have been wounded or cut off may come into the meeting of the Lord's people.
2 Namni haraamuudhaan dhalate yookaan sanyiin isaa kam iyyuu hamma dhaloota kurnaffaatti waldaa Waaqayyoo hin seenin.
One whose father and mother are not married may not come into the meeting of the Lord's people, or any of his family 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 people to the tenth generation may come into the meeting of the Lord's people:
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.
Because they gave you no bread or water on your way, when you came out of Egypt: and they got Balaam, the son of Peor, from Pethor in Aram-naharaim to put curses on you.
5 Taʼus Waaqayyo Waaqni kee abaarsa sana eebbatti siif geeddare malee Balaʼaamin hin dhageenye; Waaqayyo Waaqni kee si jaallataatii.
But the Lord your God would not give ear to Balaam, but let the curse be changed into a blessing to you, because of his love for you.
6 Ati hamma lubbuudhaan jirtutti akka isaan nageenyaa fi badhaadhummaa qabaatan hin barbaadin.
Do nothing for their peace or well-being for ever.
7 Waan inni obboleessa kee taʼeef nama gosa Edoom hin tuffatin. Ati sababii akka alagaatti biyya isaa keessa jiraatteef nama Gibxi hin tuffatin.
But have no hate for an Edomite, because he is your brother, or for an Egyptian, for you were living in his land.
8 Ijoolleen dhaloota sadaffaa kanneen isaaniif dhalatan waldaa Waaqayyoo seenuu ni dandaʼu.
Their children in the third generation may come into the meeting of the Lord's people.
9 Yommuu diinota kee loluuf baatutti xuraaʼummaa hunda irraa of eegi.
When you go out to war and put your tents in position, keep from every evil 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 through anything which has taken place in the night, he is to go out from the tent-circle and keep outside it:
11 Gara galgalaa garuu dhiqatee yeroo aduun dhiitutti gara qubataatti haa deebiʼu.
But when evening comes near, let him take a bath: and after sundown he may come back to the tents.
12 Ati qubataan alatti lafa itti gad baatu qopheeffadhu.
Let there be a place outside the tent-circle to which you may go;
13 Meeshaa kee keessaa waan ittiin lafa qottu qabaadhu; ati yommuu gad teessee kaatutti boolla qotiitii biyyoo itti deebisi.
And have among your arms a spade; and when you have been to that place, let that which comes from you be covered up with earth:
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 is walking among your tents, to keep you safe and to give up into your hands those who are fighting against you; then let your tents be holy, so that he may see no unclean thing among you, and be turned away from you.
15 Yoo garbichi tokko kooluu sitti gale, ati dabarsitee gooftaa isaatti isa hin kennin.
Do not give back to his master a servant who has gone in flight from his master and come to you:
16 Inni gidduu kee lafa jaallatee fi magaalaa filate keessa haa jiraatu. Atis isa hin cunqursin.
Let him go on living among you in whatever place is most pleasing to him: do not be hard on him.
17 Dhiirri yookaan dubartiin Israaʼel kam iyyuu sagaagaltuu mana waaqa tolfamaa hin taʼin.
No daughter of Israel is to let herself be used as a loose woman for a strange god, and no son of Israel is to give himself to a man.
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.
Do not take into the house of the Lord your God, as an offering for an oath, the price of a loose woman or the money given to one used for sex purposes in the worship of the gods: for these two things are disgusting to the Lord your God.
19 Ati maallaqa yookaan nyaata yookaan waan dhala argamsiisu kam iyyuu dhalaan obboleessa keetiif hin liqeessin.
Do not take interest from an Israelite on anything, money or food or any other goods, which you let him have:
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.
From men of other nations you may take interest, but not from an Israelite: so that the blessing of the Lord your God may be on everything to which you put your hand, in the land which you are about to take as your heritage.
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.
When you take an oath to the Lord, do not be slow to give effect to it: for without doubt the Lord your God will make you responsible, and will put it to your account as sin.
22 Yoo wareeguu baatte garuu ati cubbamaa hin taatu.
But if you take no oath, there will be no sin.
23 Waan arrabni kee dubbate gochuuf of eeggadhu; afaanuma keetiin jaallattee Waaqayyo Waaqa keetiif wareegdeertaatii.
Whatever your lips have said, see that you do it; for you gave your word freely to the Lord your God.
24 Ati yoo iddoo dhaabaa wayinii ollaa keetii keessa seente, ija feete hunda nyaadhu; garuu tokko illee guuboo kee keessa hin kaaʼatin.
When you go into your neighbour's vine-garden, you may take of his grapes at your pleasure, but you may not take them away in your vessel.
25 Yoo lafa qotiisaa midhaan ollaa keetii keessa seente, asheetii cirachuu ni dandeessa; garuu midhaan isaa kan dhaabatutti haamtuu kee hin buusin.
When you go into your neighbour's field, you may take the heads of grain with your hand; but you may not put your blade to his grain.
