Lewwota 11
1 Waaqayyos Musee fi Arooniin akkana jedhe;
And Yahweh spake unto Moses and unto Aaron, saying unto them:
2 “Israaʼelootaan akkana jedhaa: ‘Bineensota lafa irra jiraatan hunda keessaa kanneen isin nyaachuu dandeessan isaan kanaa dha:
Speak ye unto the sons of Israel saying, —These are the living things which ye may eat, of all the beasts which are upon the earth:
3 Bineensa kotteen isaa guutumaan guutuutti baqaqaa taʼe kan alala guuru kam iyyuu nyaachuu dandeessu.
Whatsoever parteth the hoof and is cloven-footed, and cheweth the cud among beasts, that, may ye eat.
4 “‘Kanneen alala qofa guuran yookaan kotteen isaanii qofti baqaqaa taʼe garuu nyaachuu hin qabdan. Gaalli yoo alala guure iyyuu kottee baqaqaa hin qabu; inni isiniif qulqulluu miti.
Nevertheless, these, shall ye not eat, of them that chew the cud, and of them that part the hoof, —the camel, because though he, cheweth the cud, yet, the hoof, he parteth not, unclean, he is to you;
5 Osoleen yoo alala guurte iyyuu kottee baqaqaa hin qabdu; isheen isiniif qulqulluu miti.
And, the coney, because, though he cheweth the cud, yet, the hoof, he parteth not, —unclean, he is to you;
6 Illeettiin yoo alala guurte iyyuu kottee baqaqaa hin qabdu; isheen isiniif qulqulluu miti.
And the hare, because though she cheweth the cud, yet the hoof, she parteth not, —unclean, she is to you;
7 Booyyeen yoo kottee baqaqaa qabaate iyyuu alala hin guuru; inni isiniif qulqulluu miti.
And, the swine, because though he parteth the hoof, and is cloven-footed, yet, the cud, he cheweth not, —unclean, he is to you;
8 Isin foon isaanii nyaachuu yookaan raqa isaanii tuquu hin qabdan; isaan isiniif qulqulluu miti.
Of their flesh, shall ye not eat, and, their carcase, shall ye not touch, —unclean, they are to you.
9 “‘Uumamawwan bishaan galaanotaa fi bishaan lageenii keessa jiraatan hunda keessaa kanneen qoochoo fi qola qaban kam iyyuu nyaachuu dandeessu.
these, may ye eat, of all that are in the waters, —all that have fins and scales in the waters, in the seas and in the rivers, them, may ye eat.
10 Garuu uumamawwan galaanotaa fi lageen keessa jiraatan kanneen qoochoo fi qola hin qabne hundi, uumamawwan bishaan keessa munyuuqan hundi yookaan kanneen bishaan keessa jiraatan hundi isiniif xuraaʼoo haa taʼan.
But, all that have not fins and scales, in the seas and in the rivers, of all that swarm in the waters, and of all the living souls that are in the waters, an abomination, they are unto you;
11 Isaan isin duratti xuraaʼoo waan taʼaniif foon isaanii hin nyaatinaa; raqni isaaniis xuraaʼaa haa taʼu.
and an abomination, shall they remain to you, —of their flesh, ye shall not eat, and their carcases, shall ye abhor.
12 Wanni bishaan keessa jiraatu kan qoochoo fi qola hin qabne kam iyyuu isiniif xuraaʼaa haa taʼu.
Whatsoever hath not fins and scales in the waters, an abomination, it is unto you.
13 “‘Isaan kunneen simbirroota isin jibbuu qabdanii dha; hin nyaataman; isaan xuraaʼoo dha: risaa, rumicha, rumicha gurraacha,
And, these, shall ye abhor of birds, they shall not be eaten, an abomination, they are, —the eagle, and the ossifrage, and the osprey;
14 culullee, culullee gurraacha gosa garaa garaa,
and the vulture, and the falcon, after its kind;
15 arraagessa gosa garaa garaa,
every raven, after its kind;
16 guchii, urunguu, allaattii bishaanii, coroffee gosa garaa garaa,
and the female ostrich, and the male ostrich, and the sea-gull, —and the hawk after its kind;
17 urunguu xinnaa, daakiyyee, urunguu guddaa,
and the pelican and the gannet, and the bittern;
18 urunguu adii, urunguu gammoojjii, allaattii raqaa,
and the swan and the vomiting pelican and the little vulture;
19 huummoo, huummoo gosa kamii iyyuu, haadha gaayyee, simbira halkanii.
and the stork, and the parrot, after its kind, —and the mountain-cock and the bat.
20 “‘Ilbiisonni barrisan kanneen miilla afraniinuu deeman hundi isiniif xuraaʼoo haa taʼani.
Every creeping thing that flieth, that goeth on all-fours, an abomination, it is unto you.
21 Taʼus ilbiisonni barrisan kanneen miilla afraniinuu deeman keessaa tokko tokko nyaachuu ni dandeessu; isaanis warra ittiin lafa irra utaaluuf miilla dadachaʼu qabanii dha.
Nevertheless, these, may ye eat, of all creeping things that fly, that go on all-fours, —such as have legs above their feet, to leap therewith, upon the earth—
22 Isaan keessaas hawwaannisa gosa garaa garaa, hawwaannisa magariisa garaa garaa, farda waaqaa garaa garaa fi korophisa garaa garaa nyaachuu dandeessu.
these of them, may ye eat: the swarming-locust after its kind, and the devouring locust after its kind, —and the chargol-locust after its kind, and the chagab-locust after its kind.
23 Garuu ilbiisota barrisan kanneen miilla afur qaban biraa hundi isiniif xuraaʼoo haa taʼan.
But every [other] creeping thing that flieth, which hath four feet, an abomination, it is unto you;
24 “‘Isin wantoota kanneeniin of xureessitu; namni raqa isaanii tuqu kam iyyuu hamma galgalaatti xuraaʼaa dha.
and, for these, shall ye count yourselves unclean—whosoever toucheth the carcase of them shall be unclean until the evening;
25 Namni reeffa isaanii tokko illee lafaa fuudhu kam iyyuu uffata isaa miiccachuu qaba; inni hamma galgalaatti xuraaʼaa taʼa.
and whosoever beareth away aught of the carcase of them, shall wash his clothes and be unclean until the evening.
26 “‘Bineensi kottee baqaqaa qabu kan kotteen isaa guutumaan guutuutti gargar hin qoodamin yookaan alala hin guurre kam iyyuu isiniif xuraaʼaa dha; namni raqa isaanii tuqu kam iyyuus xuraaʼaa taʼa.
As for every kind of beast which, though it parteth the hoof, yet is not cloven-footed nor cheweth the cud, unclean, they are unto you, —every one who toucheth them shall be unclean.
27 Bineensota miilla afuriin deeman hunda keessaa kanneen faanaan ejjetan isiniif xuraaʼoo dha; namni raqa isaanii tuqu kam iyyuus hamma galgalaatti xuraaʼaa taʼa.
And, all that go upon their paws, among all the living things that go on all-fours, unclean, they are unto you, —whoso toucheth the carcase of them, shall be unclean until the evening.
28 Namni raqa isaanii lafaa fuudhu kam iyyuu uffata isaa miiccachuu qaba; inni hamma galgalaatti xuraaʼaa taʼa. Isaanis isiniif xuraaʼoo dha.
And, he that beareth away the carcase of them shall wash his clothes, and shall be unclean until the evening, —unclean, they are unto you.
29 “‘Uumamawwan lafa irra munyuuqan keessaa isaan kunneen isiniif xuraaʼoo dha; isaanis: tuqaa, hantuuta, loccuu gurguddaa gosa gosaa,
And, these, unto you, shall be unclean, among the creeping things that creep upon the earth, —the weasel and the mouse, and the lizard after its kind;
30 loccuu cirrachaa, naacha, qarcoo, qarcabboo fi gaararraa dha.
and the ferret and the chameleon and the wall-lizard, —and the winding lizard, and the mole.
31 Uumamawwan lafa irra munyuuqan keessaa isaan kunneen isiniif xuraaʼoo dha; namni raqa isaanii tuqus hamma galgalaatti xuraaʼaa taʼa.
These, are they which are unclean to you among all that creep, —whosoever toucheth them when they are dead shall be unclean until the evening;
32 Uumamawwan sana keessaa tokko yoo duʼee miʼa wayii irra buʼe, miʼi sun faayidaan isaa waan fedhe iyyuu taʼu, inni muka irraa, huccuu irraa, gogaa irraa yookaan keeshaa irraa hojjetamu illee miʼi sun xuraaʼaa taʼa; miʼa sana bishaan keessa buusaa. Innis hamma galgalaatti xuraaʼaa taʼee ergasii immoo qulqulluu taʼa.
and, everything whereon any of them shall fall when they are dead shall be unclean—of any articles of wood, or cloth, or skin, or sackcloth, any article wherewith any work is done, —shall be put in water and shall be unclean until the evening, and then be clean,
33 Isaan keessaa tokko okkotee keessa yoo buʼe, wanni okkotee sana keessa jiru hundi xuraaʼaa taʼa; isinis okkotee sana cabsuu qabdu.
And, as for any earthen vessel whereinto any of them may fall, everything therein shall be unclean, and, the vessel itself, shall ye break in pieces.
34 Nyaanni nyaatamuu dandaʼu kan garuu bishaan okkotee akkasii keessaa itti naqame kam iyyuu xuraaʼaa dha; dhugaatiin okkotee sana keessaa dhugamuu dandaʼu kam iyyuus xuraaʼaa dha.
Of all the food that may be eaten, that whereon shall come water, shall be unclean, —and, all drink which might be drunk in any [such] vessel, shall be unclean.
35 Wanni raqa uumamawwan kanaa keessaa tokko iyyuu irra buʼu kam iyyuu xuraaʼaa taʼa; eeleen yookaan okkoteen waa itti bilcheessan cabsamuu qaba. Isaan xuraaʼoo dha; isinis akka miʼa xuraaʼaatti isaan ilaalaa.
And, everything whereon shall fall any part of the carcase of them shall be unclean, oven or fire-range, it shall be destroyed, unclean, they are, —and, unclean, Shall they remain to you.
36 Burqaan yookaan boolli bishaan itti kuufamu immoo qulqulluu taʼee tura; garuu namni raqa kana keessaa tokko illee tuqu xuraaʼaa dha.
Notwithstanding, a fountain or cistern wherein is a gathering of waters shall be clean, —but, he that toucheth the carcase of them shall be unclean.
37 Raqni tokko sanyii facaafamuuf jiru irra yoo buʼe sanyiin sun qulqulluu taʼee hafa.
And when any part of the carcase of them shall fall upon seed for sowing, which is to be sown, the same is, clean.
38 Garuu sanyii sana irratti bishaan naqamee raqni wayii yoo irra buʼe sanyiin sun isiniif xuraaʼaa dha.
But, when water shall be put upon seed, and there shall fall thereon any part of the carcase of them, unclean, it is to you.
39 “‘Horiin akka isin nyaattaniif isiniif eeyyamame tokko yoo duʼe, namni raqa isaa tuqe kam iyyuu hamma galgalaatti xuraaʼaa taʼa.
And, when any of the beasts which are yours for food shall die, he that toucheth the carcase of it shall be unclean until the evening.
40 Namni raqa sana irraa waa nyaatu wayyaa isaa miiccachuu qaba; inni hamma galgalaatti xuraaʼaa taʼa. Namni raqa sana lafaa fuudhe wayyaa isaa miiccadhuu qaba; innis hamma galgalaatti xuraaʼaa taʼa.
And, he that eateth of the carcase of it, shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the evening, —he also that carrieth away the carcase thereof shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the evening.
41 “‘Uumamni lafa irra munyuuqu kam iyyuu xuraaʼaa dha; nyaatamuus hin qabu.
And, any creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth, an abomination, it is—it shall not be eaten.
42 Uumama lafa irra looʼu kan garaadhaan lafa irra looʼu yookaan miilla afuriin yookaan miilla hedduun deemu kam iyyuu hin nyaatinaa; inni xuraaʼaa dha.
Everything that goeth upon the belly, and everything that goeth upon all-fours, even to everything having many feet, as regardeth any creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth, ye shall not eat them for, an abomination, they are.
43 Uumamawwan kanneen keessaa tokkoon iyyuu of hin xureessinaa. Isin akka xuraaʼoo hin taaneef isaaniin of hin xureessinaa.
Do not make your persons abominable, with any creeping thing that creepeth, —neither shall ye make yourselves unclean with them, that ye should become unclean thereby.
44 Ani Waaqayyo Waaqa keessanii dha; waan ani qulqulluu taʼeef isinis of qulqulleessaatii qulqulloota taʼaa. Uumama lafa irra munyuuqu kamiin iyyuu of hin xureessinaa.
For, I—Yahweh, am your God, therefore shall ye hallow yourselves and remain holy; for, holy, am, I,—therefore shall ye not make your persons unclean, with any creeping thing that crawleth upon the earth;
45 Ani Waaqayyo kan Waaqa keessan taʼuuf jedhee biyya Gibxiitii isin baasee dha; kanaafuu ani qulqulluudhaatii isinis qulqulluu taʼaa.
for, I—Yahweh, am he that brought you up out of the land of Egypt, that I might become your God, —therefore shall ye be holy, for, holy, am, I.
46 “‘Seerri waaʼee horii, simbirroo, lubbuu qabeeyyii bishaan keessa munyuuqan hundaa fi uumama lafa irra munyuuqu hundaa kanaa dha.
This, is the law of beast and of bird, and of every living soul that moveth in the waters, —and as to every soul that creepeth upon the earth:
47 Isin waan xuraaʼaa fi waan qulqulluu, uumama nyaatamuu fi kan hin nyaatamne addaan baaftanii beekuu qabdu.’”
That ye may make a difference—between the unclean and the clean, —and between the living thing that may be eaten, and the living thing which may not be eaten.
