Baʼuu 20
1 Waaqni akkana jedhee dubbii kana hunda dubbate:
God spoke all these words:
2 “Ani Waaqayyo Waaqa kee kan Gibxii, biyya garbummaatii si baasee dha.
“I am Yahweh your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of slavery.
3 “Ati ana malee waaqota biraa tokko illee hin qabaatin.
You must have no other gods before me.
4 Ati bifa waan ol samii gubbaa yookaan gad lafa irra yookaan bishaan lafa jalaa keessa jiru kamiitiin iyyuu Waaqa tolfamaa ofii keetiif hin tolfatin.
You must not make for yourself a carved figure nor the likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water below.
5 Isaaniif hin sagadin yookaan isaan hin waaqeffatin; ani Waaqayyo Waaqni kee Waaqa hinaafu kan sababii cubbuu abbootiitiif jedhee ijoollee warra na jibbanii hamma dhaloota sadii fi afuriitti adabee
You must not bow down to them or worship them, for I, Yahweh your God, am a jealous God. I punish the ancestors' wickedness by bringing punishment on the descendants, to the third and the fourth generation of those who hate me.
6 warra na jaallatanii ajajawwan koo eegan immoo hamma dhaloota kumaatti jaallatuu dha.
But I show covenant faithfulness to thousands of those who love me and keep my commandments.
7 Maqaa Waaqayyo Waaqa keetii akkasumaan hin dhaʼin; Waaqayyo warra akkuma argan maqaa isaa dhaʼan utuu hin adabin hin dhiisuutii.
You must not take the name of Yahweh your God, in vain, for I will not hold guiltless anyone who takes my name in vain.
8 Guyyaa Sanbataa qulqulleessuudhaan yaadadhu.
Remember the Sabbath day, to set it apart to me.
9 Guyyoota jaʼa hojjedhu; hojii kee hundas hojjetadhu;
You must labor and do all your work for six days.
10 guyyaan torbaffaan garuu sanbata Waaqayyo Waaqa keetii ti. Gaafas hojii tokko illee hin hojjetin; ati yookaan ilmi kee yookaan intalli kee yookaan hojjetaan kee yookaan xomboreen kee yookaan horiin kee yookaan alagaan magaalaa kee keessa jiraatu tokko iyyuu homaa hin hojjetin.
But the seventh day is a Sabbath for Yahweh your God. On it you must not do any work, you, or your son, or your daughter, or your male servant, or your female servant, or your cattle, or the foreigner who is within your gates.
11 Waaqayyo guyyaa jaʼa keessatti samii fi lafa, galaanaa fi waan isaan keessa jiru hunda uumee guyyaa torbaffaatti boqoteetii. Kanaafuu Waaqayyo Sanbata eebbisee qulqulleesse.
For in six days Yahweh made the heavens and earth, the sea, and everything that is in them, and rested on the seventh day. Therefore Yahweh blessed the Sabbath day and set it apart.
12 Akka biyya Waaqayyo Waaqni kee siif kennu keessa bara dheeraa jiraattuuf abbaa keetii fi haadha keetiif ulfina kenni.
Honor your father and your mother, so that you may live a long time in the land that Yahweh your God is giving you.
13 Hin ajjeesin.
You must not murder anyone.
14 Hin ejjin.
You must not commit adultery.
15 Hin hatin.
You must not steal from anyone.
16 Ollaa keetti sobaan dhugaa hin baʼin.
You must not give false testimony against your neighbor.
17 Mana namaa hin hawwin. Niitii namaa yookaan hojjetaa isaa yookaan xomboree isaa yookaan qotiyyoo isaa yookaan harree isaa yookaan waan namaa kam iyyuu hin hawwin.”
You must not covet your neighbor's house; you must not covet your neighbor's wife, his male servant, his female servant, his ox, his donkey, or anything that belongs to your neighbor.”
18 Jarri hundinuus yommuu bakakkaa fi balaqqeessa, sagalee malakataatii fi tulluu aaru hubatanitti sodaadhaan hollatan. Isaan fagoo dhaabatanii
All the people saw the thundering and the lightning, and heard the voice of the trumpet, and saw the mountain smoking. When the people saw it, they trembled and stood far off.
19 Museedhaan, “Ati mataan kee nutti dubbadhu; nu ni dhaggeeffannaa. Garuu Waaqni nutti hin dubbatin. Yoo kanaa achii nu ni dhumnaa” jedhan.
They said to Moses, “Speak to us, and we will listen; but do not let God speak to us, or we will die.”
20 Museen immoo saba sanaan, “Hin sodaatinaa. Akka Waaqa sodaachuun isin wajjin jiraatee cubbuu hojjechuu irraa isin eeguuf jedhee Waaqni isin qoruuf dhufeera” jedhe.
Moses said to the people, “Do not be afraid, for God has come to test you so that the honor of him may be in you, and so that you do not sin.”
21 Yeroo Museen dukkana limixii iddoo Waaqni turetti dhiʼaatetti, namoonni fagoo dhaabatan.
So the people stood far off, and Moses approached the thick darkness where God was.
22 Ergasii Waaqayyo Museedhaan akkana jedhe; “Saba Israaʼelitti waan kana himi: ‘Akka ani samii irraa isinitti dubbadhe isin mataan keessan argitaniirtu;
Yahweh said to Moses, “This is what you must tell the Israelites: 'You yourselves have seen that I have talked with you from heaven.
23 ana biratti waaqota kam iyyuu hin tolfatinaa. Waaqota meetii yookaan waaqota warqee hin tolfatinaa.
You will not make for yourselves other gods alongside me, gods of silver or gods of gold.
24 “‘Biyyoo lafaa irraa iddoo aarsaa naa tolchiitii isa irratti qalma gubamu, aarsaa nagaa, hoolota kee, reʼoota keetii fi loon kee aarsaa dhiʼeessi. Ani iddoo akka maqaan koo itti yaadatamu godhu hundatti gara kee dhufee sin eebbisa.
You must make an earthen altar for me, and you must sacrifice on it your burnt offerings, fellowship offerings, sheep, and oxen. In every place where I cause my name to be honored, I will come to you and bless you.
25 Yoo dhagaa irraa iddoo aarsaa naa ijaarte immoo dhagaa soofame irraa hin ijaarin; yoo meeshaadhaan isa tuqxe ni xureessitaatii.
If you make me an altar of stone, you must not build it of cut stones, for if you use your tools on it, you will have defiled it.
26 Akka qullaan kee isa irratti hin mulʼanneef gulantaadhaan iddoo aarsaa kootti ol hin baʼin.’
You must not go up to my altar on steps, so that your nakedness is not exposed.'”
