Lewwota 20
1 Waaqayyo Museedhaan akkana jedhe;
And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
2 “Israaʼelootaan akkana jedhi; ‘Namni Israaʼel yookaan alagaan Israaʼel keessa jiraatu kan ilmaan isaa keessaa Moolekiif kennu kam iyyuu haa ajjeefamu; sabni biyya sanaa dhagaadhaan isa haa tumu.
Moreover, thou shall say to the sons of Israel, Whoever he is of the sons of Israel, or of the strangers that sojourn in Israel, who gives of his seed to Molech, he shall surely be put to death. The people of the land shall stone him with stones.
3 Sababii namichi sun ilmaan isaa Moolekiif kennuudhaan iddoo qulqulluu koo xureessee maqaa koo qulqulluu sana salphiseef, ani fuula itti hammaadhee saba isaa keessaa isa nan balleessa.
I also will set my face against that man, and will cut him off from among his people, because he has given of his seed to Molech, to defile my sanctuary, and to profane my holy name.
4 Sabni biyya sanaa yeroo namichi sun ilmaan isaa keessaa tokko Moolekiif kennutti yoo fuula irraa deebifatee isa ajjeesuu dhiise,
And if the people at the land do at all hide their eyes from that man, when he gives of his seed to Molech, and do not put him to death,
5 ani namicha sanaa fi maatii isaatti fuula hammaadhee isaa fi warra isa faana buʼanii sagaagaluudhaan Moolekitti of kennan hunda saba isaanii keessaa nan balleessa.
then I will set my face against that man, and against his family, and will cut him off, and all who play the harlot after him, to play the harlot with Molech, from among their people.
6 “‘Nama isaan duukaa buʼuudhaan sagaagaluuf jedhee gara ilaaltotaatii fi warra ekeraa dubbisaniitti deebiʼutti ani fuula ittan hammaadha; saba isaa keessaa isa nan balleessa.
And the soul that turns to those who have familiar spirits, and to the wizards, to play the harlot after them, I will even set my face against that soul, and will cut him off from among his people.
7 “‘Of qulqulleessaa; qulqullootas taʼaa; ani Waaqayyo Waaqa keessaniitii.
Sanctify yourselves therefore, and become ye holy, for I am Jehovah your God.
8 Sirna koo eegaa; duukaa buʼaas. Ani Waaqayyo isa isin qulqulleessuu dha.
And ye shall keep my statutes, and do them. I am Jehovah who sanctifies you.
9 “‘Namni abbaa isaa yookaan haadha isaa abaare kam iyyuu haa ajjeefamu. Inni abbaa isaa yookaan haadha isaa abaareeraatii dhiigni isaa matuma isaatti deebiʼa.
For he who curses his father or his mother shall surely be put to death. He has cursed his father or his mother; his blood shall be upon him.
10 “‘Yoo namni niitii nama biraa wajjin jechuunis niitii ollaa isaa wajjin sagaagale namichi sagaagalee fi niitiin sagaagalte sun haa ajjeefaman.
And the man who commits adultery with another man's wife, even he who commits adultery with his neighbor's wife, the adulterer and the adulteress shall surely be put to death.
11 “‘Namni yoo niitii abbaa isaa wajjin ciise inni abbaa isaa salphiseera. Namichis, dubartiin sunis haa ajjeefaman; dhiigni isaanii matuma isaaniitti deebiʼa.
And the man who lies with his father's wife has uncovered his father's nakedness. Both of them shall surely be put to death, their blood shall be upon them.
12 “‘Yoo namni niitii ilma isaa wajjin ciise lamaan isaanii iyyuu haa ajjeefaman. Isaan haraamuu dha; dhiigni isaanii matuma isaaniitti deebiʼa.
And if a man lies with his daughter-in-law, both of them shall surely be put to death. They have wrought perversion. Their blood shall be upon them.
13 “‘Yoo namni akkuma dubartii wajjin ciisutti dhiira wajjin ciise lamaan isaanii iyyuu waan jibbisiisaa hojjetaniiru. Isaan haa ajjeefaman; dhiigni isaanii matuma isaaniitti deebiʼa.
And if a man lies with a man, as with a woman, both of them have committed abomination. They shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them.
14 “‘Namni tokko yoo intalaa fi haadha ishee fuudhe, wanni kun xuraaʼummaa dha. Akka isin gidduutti xuraaʼummaan akkasii hin argamneef namichii fi dubartoonni lamaan ibiddaan haa gubaman.
And if a man takes a wife and her mother, it is wickedness. They shall be burnt with fire, both he and they, that there be no wickedness among you.
15 “‘Namni tokko yoo horii wajjin wal bira gaʼe haa ajjeefamu; horii sana illee ajjeesaa.
And if a man lies with a beast, he shall surely be put to death, and ye shall kill the beast.
16 “‘Yoo dubartiin horii kamitti iyyuu dhiʼaattee horii sana wajjin wal bira geesse, dubartiin sunii fi horiin sun haa ajjeefaman; dhiigni isaanii matuma isaaniitti deebiʼa.
And if a woman approaches to any beast, and lies down with it, thou shall kill the woman and the beast. They shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them.
17 “‘Namni tokko yoo obboleettii isaa jechuunis intala abbaa isaa yookaan intala haadha isaa fuudhee wal bira gaʼan wanni kun salphina. Isaan utuma sabni isaanii arguu saba isaanii keessaa haa balleeffaman; namichi kun obboleettii isaa salphiseera; itti gaafatamas.
And if a man shall take his sister, his father's daughter, or his mother's daughter, and see her nakedness, and she sees his nakedness, it is a shameful thing, and they shall be cut off in the sight of the sons of their people. He has uncovered his sister's nakedness; he shall bear his iniquity.
18 “‘Namni tokko yoo yeroo dubartiin tokko xurii jiʼaa of irraa qabdutti ishee bira gaʼe, inni madda dhangalaʼaa ishee ifatti baaseera; isheenis madda dhangalaʼa ishee mulʼifteerti. Lamaan isaanii iyyuu saba isaanii keessaa haa balleeffaman.
And if a man shall lie with a woman having her sickness, and shall uncover her nakedness, he has made naked her fountain, and she has uncovered the fountain of her blood. And both of them shall be cut off from among their people.
19 “‘Obboleettii haadha keetii yookaan abbaa keetii wajjin wal bira hin gaʼin; wanni sun fira dhiigaa salphisaatii; isin lamaanuus itti gaafatamtu.
And thou shall not uncover the nakedness of thy mother's sister, nor of thy father's sister, for he has made naked his near kin. They shall bear their iniquity.
20 “‘Namni tokko yoo niitii eessuma isaa wajjin wal bira gaʼe inni eessuma isaa salphiseera. Isaan itti gaafatamu; utuu ijoollee hin argatinis duʼu.
And if a man shall lie with his uncle's wife, he has uncovered his uncle's nakedness. They shall bear their sin; they shall die childless.
21 “‘Namni tokko yoo niitii obboleessa isaa fuudhe, wanni kun hojii xuraaʼummaa ti; innis obboleessa isaa salphiseera. Isaan ijoollee malee hafu.
And if a man shall take his brother's wife, it is impurity. He has uncovered his brother's nakedness; they shall be childless.
22 “‘Akka lafti ani akka isin keessa jiraattaniif itti isin fidu sun isin hin tufneef ajajaa fi seera koo hunda eegaa; duukaa buʼaas.
Ye shall therefore keep all my statutes, and all my ordinances, and do them, that the land, where I bring you to dwell in it, not vomit you out.
23 Isin bartee saboota ani fuula keessan duraa ariʼee baasuuf jiru kanneenii duukaa hin buʼinaa; sababii isaan wantoota kanneen hunda hojjetaniif ani isaan jibbeera.
And ye shall not walk in the customs of the nation which I cast out before you, for they did all these things, and therefore I abhorred them.
24 Ani garuu, “Isin lafa isaanii ni dhaaltu; anis lafa aannanii fi damma baasu dhaala godhee isiniifin kenna” jedheera. Ani Waaqayyo Waaqa keessan kan saboota kaan irraa addaan isin baasee dha.
But I have said to you, Ye shall inherit their land, and I will give it to you to possess it, a land flowing with milk and honey. I am Jehovah your God, who has separated you from the peoples.
25 “‘Kanaafuu isin bineensa qulqullaaʼaa fi xuraaʼaa, simbirroo xuraaʼaa fi qulqullaaʼaa addaan baasaa. Bineensa yookaan simbirroo yookaan waan lafa irra munyuuqu kanneen ani isiniif xuraaʼota jedhee addaan baase kamiin iyyuu of hin xureessinaa.
Ye shall therefore make a distinction between the clean beast and the unclean, and between the unclean fowl and the clean. And ye shall not make your souls abominable by beast, or by bird, or by anything with which the ground teems, which I have separated from you as unclean.
26 Sababii ani Waaqayyo qulqulluu taʼee fi akka isin kan koo taataniifis saboota kaan irraa addaan isin baaseef, isin qulqulloota naaf taʼaa.
And ye shall be holy to me, for I, Jehovah, am holy, and have set you apart from the peoples, that ye should be mine.
27 “‘Dhiirri yookaan dubartiin ilaalan yookaan ekeraa dubbisan haa ajjeefaman. Isaan dhagaadhaan haa tumaman; dhiigni isaanii matuma isaaniitti deebiʼa.’”
A man or also a woman who has a familiar spirit, or that is a wizard, shall surely be put to death. They shall stone them with stones; their blood shall be upon them.
