< Baʼuu 34 >

1 Waaqayyo Museedhaan akkana jedhe; “Gabateewwan dhagaa lama akkuma kanneen duraa sanaatti soofi; anis dubbii gabateewwan ati caccabsite sana irra turan isaan irratti nan barreessa.
The Lord told Moses, “Cut out two stone tablets like the first ones, and I will write on them again the same words that were on the first tablets—the ones you broke.
2 Atis ganamaan qophaayiitii Tulluu Siinaatti ol baʼi. Achitti, fiixee tulluu sanaa irratti fuula koo duratti of dhiʼeessi.
Get ready in the morning, and then come up Mount Sinai. Stand before me there on the mountain top.
3 Namni tokko iyyuu si wajjin hin dhufin yookaan tulluu sana irratti eessumattuu hin mulʼatin. Bushaayee fi loon iyyuu fuula tulluu sanaa duratti hin bobbaʼin.”
Nobody else can come up with you—I don't want to see anyone anywhere on the mountain, and no flocks or herds should graze at the foot of the mountain.”
4 Museenis gabateewwan dhagaa lama akkuma kanneen jalqabaatti soofe; innis gabateewwan lamaanis harkatti qabatee akkuma Waaqayyo isa ajajetti ganama bariin Tulluu Siinaatti ol baʼe.
So Moses cut out two stone tablets like the previous ones and went up Mount Sinai early in the morning as the Lord had ordered him, taking with him the two stone tablets.
5 Waaqayyo duumessaan gad buʼee isa wajjin achi dhaabate; maqaa Waaqayyoos ni labse.
The Lord descended in a cloud, stood there with him, and called out the name “Yahweh.”
6 Waaqayyo fuula Musee dura darbee akkana jedhee labse; “Waaqayyo, Waaqayyo Waaqa gara laafessaa fi arjaa, kan dafee hin aarre, kan jaalallii fi amanamummaan isaa guddaa,
The Lord passed in front of him, calling out, “Yahweh! Yahweh! I am the God of grace and mercy! I am slow to become angry, full of trustworthy love and always faithful.
7 kan araara isaa dhaloota kumaatamaaf tursu, kan hammina, fincilaa fi cubbuu namaaf dhiisuu dha. Taʼu illee inni nama yakka hojjetu adabu malee hin dhiisu; inni hamma dhaloota sadaffaa fi afuraffaatti sababii cubbuu abbootii isaaniitiif jedhee ijoollee isaaniitii fi ijoollee ijoollee isaanii ni adaba.”
I go on showing my trustworthy love to thousands, forgiving guilt, rebellion, and sin. But I will not leave the guilty unpunished—the impact of sin will affect not only the parents, but also their children and grandchildren, up until the third and fourth generation.”
8 Museen yommuu suma lafatti gad jedhee sagade.
Moses quickly bowed down to the ground, and worshiped.
9 Innis, “Yaa Gooftaa, yoo ani fuula kee duratti ayyaana argadhee jiraadhe, Gooftaan nu wajjin haa deemu. Yoo sabni kun saba mata jabeessa taʼe illee hammina keenyaa fi cubbuu keenya nuu dhiisi; dhaala kees nu godhadhu” jedhe.
He said, “Lord, if it's true that you're happy with me, please accompany us. Admittedly this is a rebellious people, but please forgive our guilt and sin. Accept us as specially belonging to you.”
10 Kana irratti Waaqayyo akkana jedhe; “Kunoo ani si wajjin kakuu nan gala. Ani fuula saba kee hundaa duratti dinqiiwwan kanaan dura saba kam iyyuu keessatti, addunyaa hunda keessatti takkumaa hin hojjetamin nan hojjedha. Sabni ati keessa jiraattus akka hojiin ani Waaqayyo siif hojjedhu hammam sodaachisaa taʼe ni arga.
The Lord said, “Look, I'm making an agreement with you. Right in front of all of you I will do miracles that have never been done before—not among anyone anywhere on earth. Everyone here and those around will see the Lord at work, for what I'm going to do for you will be incredible.
11 Waan ani harʼa si ajajuuf ajajami. Anis Amoorota, Kanaʼaanota, Heetota, Feerzota, Hiiwotaa fi Yebuusota fuula kee duraa ariʼee nan baasa.
But you must carefully follow what I tell you to do today. Pay attention! I'm going to drive out ahead of you the Amorites, Canaanites, Hittites, Perizzites, Hivites, and Jebusites.
12 Akka warra biyya ati itti galuuf deemtu sana keessa jiraatan wajjin kakuu hin galleef of eeggadhu; yoo kanaa achii isaan kiyyoo sitti taʼu.
Make sure you don't agree to a peace treaty with the people living in the land where you are going. Otherwise they will become a trap for you.
13 Iddoowwan aarsaa isaanii diigaa; siidaawwan waaqeffannaa isaanii caccabsaa; utubaawwan Aasheeraa isaaniis jijjigsaa.
For you must tear down their altars, knock down their idolatrous pillars, and cut down their Asherah poles,
14 Sababii Waaqayyo maqaan isaa Hinaafaa jedhamu sun Waaqa hinaafu taʼeef ati Waaqa biraa hin waaqeffatin.
because you must not worship any other gods than the Lord. His name stands for being exclusive, because he is a God who demands an exclusive relationship.
15 “Ati akka warra biyya sana keessa jiraatan wajjin kakuu hin galleef of eeggadhu. Sababiin isaa isaan yommuu waaqota isaanii wajjin sagaagalanii fi yommuu waaqota isaaniitiif aarsaa dhiʼeessanitti si waamu; atis aarsaa isaanii ni nyaatta.
Make sure you don't agree to a peace treaty with the people living in the land, for when they prostitute themselves by worshiping and sacrificing to their gods, they will invite you to join them, and you will eat from their pagan sacrifices.
16 Yeroo ati ilmaan kee intallan isaanii fuusiftee, intallan isaanii sun waaqota isaanii wajjin sagaagalanitti isaan akka ilmaan kees akkuma isaanii sagaagalan godhu.
When you have their daughters marry your sons and those daughters prostitute themselves to their gods, they will make your sons worship their gods in the same way.
17 “Waaqota tolfamoo baqfamanii hojjetaman hin tolfatin.
Don't make any idols for yourselves.
18 “Ayyaana Maxinoo ayyaaneffadhu. Ati sababii jiʼa Abiibii keessa Gibxii baateef akkuma ani si ajaje sanatti jiʼa Abiibii keessa yeroo murteeffametti bultii torba Maxinoo nyaadhu.
Observe the Festival of Unleavened Bread. For seven days you are to eat bread made without yeast, as I ordered you to do. You are to do this at the specified time in the month of Abib, because that was the month when you left Egypt.
19 “Kan jalqabatti gadameessa saaqee baʼu hundi kan koo ti; kormi horii keetii hangafni jechuunis kormi looniitii fi kormi hoolotaa hangafni koo ti.
Every firstborn is mine. That includes all the firstborn males of your livestock from your cattle herds, and flocks.
20 Harree hangafa xobbaallaa hoolaatiin furi; yoo furuu baatte immoo morma isaa cabsi. Ilmaan kee hangafa hundas furi. “Namni tokko iyyuu harka duwwaa fuula koo duratti hin dhiʼaatin.
You can redeem the firstborn of a donkey with a lamb, but if you don't, you must break its neck. All your firstborn sons must be redeemed. No one is to come before me without an offering.
21 “Guyyaa jaʼa hojii hojjedhu; guyyaa torbaffaatti garuu boqodhu. Yeroo qonnaatii fi yeroo midhaan galfamutti boqodhu.
You shall work for six days, but you shall rest on the seventh day. Even during the times of sowing and harvest you shall rest.
22 “Mataa qamadii jalqabaa irratti Ayyaana Torbanootaa ayyaaneffadhu; dhuma waggaa irratti immoo ayyaana galchaa midhaanii ayyaaneffadhu.
Observe the Festival of Weeks when you offer the firstfruits of wheat harvest, and the Harvest Festival at the end of the agricultural year.
23 Dhiirri kee hundi waggaatti yeroo sadii fuula Waaqayyo Gooftaa, fuula Waaqa Israaʼel duratti haa dhiʼaatan.
Three times every year all your males must appear before the Lord Yahweh, the God of Israel.
24 Ani Namoota Ormaa si duraa ariʼee nan baasa; daangaa kee nan balʼisa; yoo ati waggaatti yeroo sadii Waaqayyo Waaqa kee duratti dhiʼaachuu dhaqxus namni tokko iyyuu biyya kee fudhachuu hin hawwu.
I will drive out the nations ahead of you and expand your borders, and no one will come and take your land when you go three times a year to appear before the Lord your God.
25 “Dhiiga aarsaa waan raacitii qabu wajjin naa hin dhiʼeessin; qalmi Ayyaana Faasiikaa irraa hafus hamma bariitti hin turin.
Don't offer bread made with yeast when you present a sacrifice to me, don't keep any sacrifice from the Passover Feast until the morning.
26 “Mataa midhaan lafa keetii keessaa filatamaa isaa gara mana Waaqayyo Waaqa keetii fidi. “Ilmoo reʼee aannan haadha isheetiin hin affeelin.”
When you harvest your crops, bring the firstfruits to the house of the Lord your God. Don't cook a young goat in milk from its mother.”
27 Waaqayyos Museedhaan, “Dubbii kana barreessi; ani akkuma dubbii kanaatti siʼii fi saba Israaʼel wajjin kakuu galeeraatii” jedhe.
Then the Lord told Moses, “Write down these words, because these are the basis for the agreement I have made with you and with Israel.”
28 Museenis utuu buddeena hin nyaatin yookaan utuu bishaan hin dhugin guyyaa afurtamaa fi halkan afurtama Waaqayyo bira achi ture. Innis dubbii kakuu sana jechuunis Ajajawwan Kurnan gabateewwan sana irratti barreesse.
Moses spent forty days and forty nights there with the Lord without eating bread or drinking water. He wrote down on the tablets the words of the agreement, the Ten Commandments.
29 Museen gabateewwan Dhuga baʼumsaa lamaan sana harkatti qabatee Tulluu Siinaa irraa gad buʼe; innis sababii Waaqayyo wajjin dubbachaa tureef akka fuulli isaa calaqqisu hin beekne ture.
When Moses came down from Mount Sinai carrying the two tablets of the Law, he didn't realize that his face was shining brightly because he had been speaking with the Lord.
30 Yommuu Aroonii fi sabni Israaʼel hundi Musee arganitti kunoo, fuulli isaa calaqqisaa ture; isaanis isatti dhiʼaachuu sodaatan.
When Aaron and the Israelites saw Moses with his face shining so brightly they were frightened to approach him.
31 Museen garuu isaan waame; Aroonii fi bulchitoonni hawaasichaa hundinuus gara isaatti deebiʼan; innis isaanitti dubbate.
But Moses called out to them, so Aaron and all the community leaders went over to him, and he talked with them.
32 Sabni Israaʼel hundi isatti dhiʼaate; innis waan Waaqayyo Gaara Siinaa irratti isatti dubbate hunda isaan ajaje.
Afterwards all the Israelites came over and he gave them all the Lord's instructions he'd received on Mount Sinai.
33 Museen yommuu isaanitti dubbatee fixatetti fuula isaa haguuggate.
After Moses finished talking with them, he put a veil over his face.
34 Yommuu Waaqayyo wajjin dubbachuudhaaf fuula isaa duratti ol seenu garuu hamma achii baʼutti haguuggii sana of irraa fuudha ture. Yommuu inni achii baʼee waan ajajame sana saba Israaʼelitti himutti,
However, whenever Moses went in to talk with the Lord, he would take off the veil until he came out again. Then he would tell the Israelites the Lord's instructions,
35 isaan akka fuulli isaa calaqqisu argan. Ergasii Museen hamma Waaqayyo wajjin dubbachuuf ol galutti fuula isaa deebisee haguuggata ture.
and the Israelites would see his face shining brightly. So he would put the veil over his face until the next time he went to talk with the Lord.
