Lewwota 11
1 Waaqayyos Musee fi Arooniin akkana jedhe;
And the LORD spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying to them.
2 “Israaʼelootaan akkana jedhaa: ‘Bineensota lafa irra jiraatan hunda keessaa kanneen isin nyaachuu dandeessan isaan kanaa dha:
Speak to the children of Israel, saying, These [are] the beasts which ye may eat among all the beasts that [are] on the earth.
3 Bineensa kotteen isaa guutumaan guutuutti baqaqaa taʼe kan alala guuru kam iyyuu nyaachuu dandeessu.
Whatever parteth the hoof, and is cloven-footed, [and] cheweth the cud among the beasts, that shall 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, or of them that divide the hoof: the camel, because he cheweth the cud, but divideth not the hoof; he [is] unclean to you.
5 Osoleen yoo alala guurte iyyuu kottee baqaqaa hin qabdu; isheen isiniif qulqulluu miti.
And the coney, because he cheweth the cud, but divideth not the hoof; he [is] unclean to you.
6 Illeettiin yoo alala guurte iyyuu kottee baqaqaa hin qabdu; isheen isiniif qulqulluu miti.
And the hare, because he cheweth the cud, but divideth not the hoof: he [is] unclean to you.
7 Booyyeen yoo kottee baqaqaa qabaate iyyuu alala hin guuru; inni isiniif qulqulluu miti.
And the swine, though he divideth the hoof, and [is] cloven-footed, yet he cheweth not the cud; he [is] unclean 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 carcass shall ye not touch; they [are] unclean to you.
9 “‘Uumamawwan bishaan galaanotaa fi bishaan lageenii keessa jiraatan hunda keessaa kanneen qoochoo fi qola qaban kam iyyuu nyaachuu dandeessu.
These shall ye eat, of all that [are] in the waters: whatever hath fins and scales in the waters, in the seas, and in the rivers, them shall 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.
And all that have not fins nor scales in the seas, and in the rivers, of all that move in the waters, and of any living animal which [is] in the waters, they [shall be] an abomination to you:
11 Isaan isin duratti xuraaʼoo waan taʼaniif foon isaanii hin nyaatinaa; raqni isaaniis xuraaʼaa haa taʼu.
They shall be even an abomination to you; ye shall not eat of their flesh, but ye shall have their carcasses in abomination.
12 Wanni bishaan keessa jiraatu kan qoochoo fi qola hin qabne kam iyyuu isiniif xuraaʼaa haa taʼu.
Whatever hath no fins nor scales in the waters, that [shall be] an abomination to you.
13 “‘Isaan kunneen simbirroota isin jibbuu qabdanii dha; hin nyaataman; isaan xuraaʼoo dha: risaa, rumicha, rumicha gurraacha,
And these [are they which] ye shall have in abomination among the fowls; they shall not be eaten, they [are] an abomination: the eagle, and the ossifrage, and the ospray,
14 culullee, culullee gurraacha gosa garaa garaa,
And the vultur, and the kite after his kind;
15 arraagessa gosa garaa garaa,
Every raven after his kind;
16 guchii, urunguu, allaattii bishaanii, coroffee gosa garaa garaa,
And the owl, and the night-hawk, and the cuckow, and the hawk after his kind,
17 urunguu xinnaa, daakiyyee, urunguu guddaa,
And the little owl, and the cormorant, and the great owl,
18 urunguu adii, urunguu gammoojjii, allaattii raqaa,
And the swan, and the pelican, and the gier-eagle,
19 huummoo, huummoo gosa kamii iyyuu, haadha gaayyee, simbira halkanii.
And the stork, and the heron after her kind, and the lapwing, and the bat.
20 “‘Ilbiisonni barrisan kanneen miilla afraniinuu deeman hundi isiniif xuraaʼoo haa taʼani.
All fowls that creep, going upon [all] four, [shall be] an abomination to 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.
Yet these may ye eat, of every flying creeping animal that goeth upon [all] four, which have legs above their feet, to leap with upon the earth;
22 Isaan keessaas hawwaannisa gosa garaa garaa, hawwaannisa magariisa garaa garaa, farda waaqaa garaa garaa fi korophisa garaa garaa nyaachuu dandeessu.
[Even] these of them ye may eat; the locust after its kind, and the bald locust after its kind, and the beetle after its kind, and the grasshopper after its kind.
23 Garuu ilbiisota barrisan kanneen miilla afur qaban biraa hundi isiniif xuraaʼoo haa taʼan.
But all [other] flying creeping animals, which have four feet, [shall be] an abomination to you.
24 “‘Isin wantoota kanneeniin of xureessitu; namni raqa isaanii tuqu kam iyyuu hamma galgalaatti xuraaʼaa dha.
And for these ye shall be unclean: whoever toucheth the carcass 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 whoever beareth [aught] of the carcass 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.
[The carcasses] of every beast which divideth the hoof, and [is] not cloven-footed, nor cheweth the cud, [are] unclean to you: every one that 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 whatever goeth upon its paws, among all manner of beasts that go on [all] four, those [are] unclean to you: whoever toucheth their carcass 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 the carcass of them shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the evening: they [are] unclean to you.
29 “‘Uumamawwan lafa irra munyuuqan keessaa isaan kunneen isiniif xuraaʼoo dha; isaanis: tuqaa, hantuuta, loccuu gurguddaa gosa gosaa,
These also [shall be] unclean to you among the creeping animals that creep upon the earth; the weasel, and the mouse, and the tortoise, after its kind,
30 loccuu cirrachaa, naacha, qarcoo, qarcabboo fi gaararraa dha.
And the ferret and the chameleon, and the lizard, and the snail, and the mole.
31 Uumamawwan lafa irra munyuuqan keessaa isaan kunneen isiniif xuraaʼoo dha; namni raqa isaanii tuqus hamma galgalaatti xuraaʼaa taʼa.
These [are] unclean to you among all that creep: whoever doth touch 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 upon whatever [any] of them, when they are dead, doth fall, it shall be unclean; whether [it is] any vessel of wood, or raiment, or skin, or sack, whatever vessel [it is], in which [any] work is done, it must be put into water, and it shall be unclean until the evening; so it shall be cleansed.
33 Isaan keessaa tokko okkotee keessa yoo buʼe, wanni okkotee sana keessa jiru hundi xuraaʼaa taʼa; isinis okkotee sana cabsuu qabdu.
And every earthen vessel, into which [any] of them falleth, whatever [is] in it shall be unclean; and ye shall break it.
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 meat which may be eaten, [that] on which [such] water cometh shall be unclean: and all drink that may be drank in every [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 every [thing] on which [any part] of their carcass falleth, shall be unclean; [whether] an oven, or ranges for pots, they shall be broken down: [for] they [are] unclean, and shall be unclean to you.
36 Burqaan yookaan boolli bishaan itti kuufamu immoo qulqulluu taʼee tura; garuu namni raqa kana keessaa tokko illee tuqu xuraaʼaa dha.
Nevertheless, a fountain or pit, [in which there is] plenty of water, shall be clean: but that which toucheth their carcass shall be unclean.
37 Raqni tokko sanyii facaafamuuf jiru irra yoo buʼe sanyiin sun qulqulluu taʼee hafa.
And if [any part] of their carcass shall fall upon any sowing-seed which is to be sown, it [shall be] clean.
38 Garuu sanyii sana irratti bishaan naqamee raqni wayii yoo irra buʼe sanyiin sun isiniif xuraaʼaa dha.
But if [any] water shall be put upon the seed, and [any part] of their carcass shall fall on it, it [shall be] unclean to you.
39 “‘Horiin akka isin nyaattaniif isiniif eeyyamame tokko yoo duʼe, namni raqa isaa tuqe kam iyyuu hamma galgalaatti xuraaʼaa taʼa.
And if any beast, of which ye may eat, shall die; he that toucheth its carcass 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 its carcass shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the evening; he also that beareth its carcass shall wash his clothes and be unclean until the evening.
41 “‘Uumamni lafa irra munyuuqu kam iyyuu xuraaʼaa dha; nyaatamuus hin qabu.
And every creeping animal that creepeth upon the earth [shall be] an abomination; 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.
Whatever goeth upon the belly, and whatever goeth upon [all] four, or whatever hath more feet among all creeping animals that creep upon the earth, them ye shall not eat; for they [are] an abomination.
43 Uumamawwan kanneen keessaa tokkoon iyyuu of hin xureessinaa. Isin akka xuraaʼoo hin taaneef isaaniin of hin xureessinaa.
Ye shall not make your selves abominable with any creeping animal that creepeth, neither shall ye make yourselves unclean with them, that ye should be defiled by them.
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 [am] the LORD your God: ye shall therefore sanctify yourselves, and ye shall be holy; for I [am] holy: neither shall ye defile yourselves with any manner of creeping animal that creepeth upon the earth.
45 Ani Waaqayyo kan Waaqa keessan taʼuuf jedhee biyya Gibxiitii isin baasee dha; kanaafuu ani qulqulluudhaatii isinis qulqulluu taʼaa.
For I [am] the LORD that bringeth you out of the land of Egypt, to be your God: ye shall therefore be holy, for I [am] holy.
46 “‘Seerri waaʼee horii, simbirroo, lubbuu qabeeyyii bishaan keessa munyuuqan hundaa fi uumama lafa irra munyuuqu hundaa kanaa dha.
This [is] the law of the beasts, and of the fowl, and of every living creature that moveth in the waters, and of every creature that creepeth upon the earth;
47 Isin waan xuraaʼaa fi waan qulqulluu, uumama nyaatamuu fi kan hin nyaatamne addaan baaftanii beekuu qabdu.’”
To make a difference between the unclean and the clean, and between the beast that may be eaten and the beast that may not be eaten.
