Lewwota 20

1 Waaqayyo Museedhaan akkana jedhe;

And the LORD spoke unto 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 shalt say to the children of Israel: Whosoever he be of the children of Israel, or of the strangers that sojourn in Israel, that giveth of his seed unto 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 hath given of his seed unto 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 of the land do at all hide their eyes from that man, when he giveth of his seed unto Molech, and put him not 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 that go astray after him, to go astray after 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 turneth unto the ghosts, and unto the familiar spirits, to go astray 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 be ye holy; for I am the LORD your God.

8 Sirna koo eegaa; duukaa buʼaas. Ani Waaqayyo isa isin qulqulleessuu dha.

And keep ye My statutes, and do them: I am the LORD who sanctify 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 whatsoever man there be that curseth his father or his mother shall surely be put to death; he hath 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 that committeth adultery with another man's wife, even he that committeth adultery with his neighbour's wife, both 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 that lieth with his father's wife — he hath 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 lie with his daughter-in-law, both of them shall surely be put to death; they have wrought corruption; 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 lie with mankind, as with womankind, 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 take with his wife also 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 lie with a beast, he shall surely be put to death; and ye shall slay 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 approach unto any beast, and lie down thereto, thou shalt 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 see his nakedness: it is a shameful thing; and they shall be cut off in the sight of the children of their people: he hath 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 hath made naked her fountain, and she hath uncovered the fountain of her blood — 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 shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy mother's sister, nor of thy father's sister; for he hath 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 hath 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 hath 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 Mine ordinances, and do them, that the land, whither I bring you to dwell therein, vomit you not 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 am casting 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 unto you: 'Ye shall inherit their land, and I will give it unto you to possess it, a land flowing with milk and honey.' I am the LORD your God, who have set you apart 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 separate between the clean beast and the unclean, and between the unclean fowl and the clean; and ye shall not make your souls detestable by beast, or by fowl, or by any thing wherewith the ground teemeth, which I have set apart for you to hold 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 unto Me; for I the LORD 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 also or a woman that divineth by a ghost or a familiar spirit, shall surely be put to death; they shall stone them with stones; their blood shall be upon them.
