Lewwota 20
1 Waaqayyo Museedhaan akkana jedhe;
And the Lord said to Moses,
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.
Again, say to the children of Israel, If any man of the children of Israel, or any other man living in Israel, gives his offspring to Molech, he is certainly to be put to death: he is to be stoned by the people of the land;
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.
And my face will be turned against that man, and he will be cut off from his people; because he has given his offspring to Molech, making my holy place unclean, and making my holy name common.
4 Sabni biyya sanaa yeroo namichi sun ilmaan isaa keessaa tokko Moolekiif kennutti yoo fuula irraa deebifatee isa ajjeesuu dhiise,
And if the people of the land do not take note of that man when he gives his offspring 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 my face will be turned against him and his family, and he and all those who do evil with him will be cut off 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 whoever goes after those who make use of spirits and wonder-workers, doing evil with them, against him will my face be turned, and he will be cut off from among his people.
7 “‘Of qulqulleessaa; qulqullootas taʼaa; ani Waaqayyo Waaqa keessaniitii.
So make and keep yourselves holy, for I am the Lord your God.
8 Sirna koo eegaa; duukaa buʼaas. Ani Waaqayyo isa isin qulqulleessuu dha.
And keep my rules and do them: I am the Lord, who make you holy.
9 “‘Namni abbaa isaa yookaan haadha isaa abaare kam iyyuu haa ajjeefamu. Inni abbaa isaa yookaan haadha isaa abaareeraatii dhiigni isaa matuma isaatti deebiʼa.
Every man cursing his father or his mother is certainly to be put to death; because of his curse on his father or his mother, his blood will be on him.
10 “‘Yoo namni niitii nama biraa wajjin jechuunis niitii ollaa isaa wajjin sagaagale namichi sagaagalee fi niitiin sagaagalte sun haa ajjeefaman.
And if a man has sex relations with another man's wife, even the wife of his neighbour, he and she are certainly to 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 has sex relations with his father's wife has put shame on his father: the two of them are to be put to death; their blood will be on 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 has sex relations with his son's wife, the two of them are to be put to death: it is unnatural; their blood will be on 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 has sex relations with a man, the two of them have done a disgusting thing: let them be put to death; their blood will be on 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 as wife a woman and her mother, it is an act of shame; let them be burned with fire, all three of them, so that there may be no shame among you.
15 “‘Namni tokko yoo horii wajjin wal bira gaʼe haa ajjeefamu; horii sana illee ajjeesaa.
And if a man has sex relations with a beast, let him be put to death, and let the beast be put to destruction.
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 goes near a beast and has sex relations with it, you will put an end to the woman and the beast: their blood will be on 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 takes his sister, daughter of his father or his mother, and has sex relations with her and she with him, it is an act of shame: they are to be cut off before the children of their people; he has had sex relations with his sister, and his sin will be on him.
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 has sex relations with a woman at the time when she is unwell, he has seen her fountain and she has let the fountain of her blood be uncovered, and the two of them are to 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 you may not have sex connection with your mother's sister or your father's sister, for they are his near relations: their sin will be on them.
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 has sex relations with the wife of his father's brother, he has put shame on his father's brother: their sin will be on them; till the day of their death they will have no children.
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 takes his brother's wife, it is an unclean act; he has put shame on his brother; they will have no children.
22 “‘Akka lafti ani akka isin keessa jiraattaniif itti isin fidu sun isin hin tufneef ajajaa fi seera koo hunda eegaa; duukaa buʼaas.
So then, keep my rules and my decisions and do them, so that the land which I am giving you as your resting-place may not violently send you out again.
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 do not keep the rules of the nations which I am driving out before you; for they did all these things, and for that reason my soul was turned against 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, You will take their land and I will give it to you for your heritage, a land flowing with milk and honey: I am the Lord your God who have made you separate from all other 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.
So then, make division between the clean beast and the unclean, and between the clean bird and the unclean: do not make yourselves disgusting by any beast or bird or anything which goes flat on the earth, which has been marked by me as unclean for you.
26 Sababii ani Waaqayyo qulqulluu taʼee fi akka isin kan koo taataniifis saboota kaan irraa addaan isin baaseef, isin qulqulloota naaf taʼaa.
And you are to be holy to me; for I the Lord am holy and have made you separate from the nations, so that you may be my people.
27 “‘Dhiirri yookaan dubartiin ilaalan yookaan ekeraa dubbisan haa ajjeefaman. Isaan dhagaadhaan haa tumaman; dhiigni isaanii matuma isaaniitti deebiʼa.’”
Any man or woman who makes use of spirits, or who is a wonder-worker, is to be put to death: they are to be stoned with stones: their blood will be on them.
