Lewwota 22
1 Waaqayyo Museedhaan akkana jedhe;
And YHWH speaks to Moses, saying,
2 “Akka isaan maqaa koo qulqullicha hin xureessineef, akka isaan aarsaa qulqulluu Israaʼeloonni addaan baasanii naa fidan sana akka gaariitti eeganiif Aroonii fi ilmaan isaatti himi. Ani Waaqayyo.
“Speak to Aaron and to his sons, and they are separated from the holy things of the sons of Israel, and they do not defile My holy Name in what they are hallowing to Me; I [am] YHWH.
3 “Akkanas Isaaniin jedhi: ‘Dhaloota dhufu keessa yoo sanyii kee keessaa namni tokko illee utuu akka seeraatti hin qulqullaaʼin aarsaa Israaʼeloonni Waaqayyoof addaan baasanitti dhiʼaate namni sun fuula koo duraa haa balleeffamu. Ani Waaqayyo.
Say to them: Throughout your generations, any man who draws near, out of all your seed, to the holy things which the sons of Israel sanctify to YHWH, and his uncleanness [is] on him—indeed, that person has been cut off from before My face; I [am] YHWH.
4 “‘Sanyii Aroon keessaa namni tokko yoo lamxii yookaan dhangalaʼaa saala isaa keessaa baʼu qabaate inni hamma qulqullaaʼutti aarsaa qulqulluu sana hin nyaatin. Akkasumas yoo waan reeffaan xuraaʼe yookaan nama afeetaa saala isaa keessaa dangalaʼu tuqe,
Any man of the seed of Aaron, and he is leprous or has discharging—he does not eat of the holy things until he is clean; and he who is coming against any uncleanness of a person, or a man whose seed [from] intercourse goes out from him,
5 yookaan yoo waan lafa irra looʼu kan isa xureessu yookaan nama isa xureessu kam iyyuu tuqe, xuraaʼummaa kam iyyuu taanaan,
or a man who comes against any teeming thing which is unclean to him, or against a man who is unclean to him, even any of his uncleanness—
6 namni waan akkasii kam iyyuu tuqu hamma galgalaatti xuraaʼaa taʼa. Inni yoo dhagna isaa bishaaniin dhiqate malee aarsaa qulqulluu sana keessaa tokko illee hin nyaatin.
the person who comes against it has even been unclean until the evening, and does not eat of the holy things, but has bathed his flesh with water,
7 Inni yeroo aduun lixxutti ni qulqullaaʼa; ergasii immoo sababii wanni sun nyaata isaa taʼeef aarsaa qulqulluu sana nyaachuu dandaʼa.
and the sun has gone in, and he has been clean, and afterward he eats of the holy things, for it [is] his food;
8 Inni waan duʼee argame yookaan waan bineensi ciccire nyaachuudhaan of hin xurreessin. Ani Waaqayyo.
he does not eat a carcass or torn thing, to become unclean with it; I [am] YHWH.
9 “‘Luboonni akka ajaja koo tuffachuudhaan cubbuu hojjetanii hin duuneef ajaja koo haa eegan. Ani Waaqayyo isaan qulqulleessuu dha.
And they have kept My charge, and bear no sin for it, that they have died for it when they defile it; I [am] YHWH sanctifying them.
10 “‘Namni maatii lubaa hin taʼin yookaan keessummaan lubaa yookaan namni lubichaaf qaxaramee hojjetu tokko illee aarsaa qulqulluu sana nyaachuu hin dandaʼu.
And no stranger eats of the holy thing; a settler [with] a priest and a hired worker does not eat of the holy thing;
11 Garuu yoo lubni maallaqaan garbicha bitate, yookaan yoo garbichi mana isaatti dhalate, garbichi sun nyaata lubichaa nyaachuu dandaʼu.
but when a priest buys a person, the purchase of his money, he eats of it, also one born in his house; they eat of his bread.
12 Intalli lubaa yoo nama luba hin taʼinitti heerumte, isheen aarsaa qulqulluu sana irraa nyaachuu hin dandeessu.
And a priest’s daughter, when she is a strange man’s, she does not eat of the raised-offering of the holy things;
13 Taʼus intalli lubaa yoo haadha hiyyeessaa taate yookaan dhirsaan wal hiiktee utuu ijoollee hin qabaatin akkuma yeroo ijoollummaa isheetti mana abbaa ishee jiraachuuf deebite, isheen nyaata abbaa ishee irraa nyaachuu ni dandeessi. Ormi garuu nyaachuu hin dandaʼu.
but a priest’s daughter, when she is a widow, or cast out, and has no seed, and has turned back to the house of her father, as [in] her youth, she eats of her father’s bread; but no stranger eats of it.
14 “‘Namni yoo utuu hin beekin aarsaa qulqulluu tokko nyaate, inni waan sana iddoo buusee gatii waan sanaa harka shan keessaa harka tokko itti dabalee lubichaaf haa kennu.
And when a man eats of a holy thing through ignorance, then he has added its fifth part to it, and has given [it] to the priest, with the holy thing;
15 Luboonnis aarsaa qulqulluu Israaʼeloonni Waaqayyoof dhiʼeessan hin xureessin
and they do not defile the holy things of the sons of Israel—that which they lift up to YHWH,
16 yookaan akka sabni sun aarsaa qulqulluu sana nyaatu eeyyamuufiidhaan yakka gatii baasisu isaanitti hin fidin. Ani Waaqayyo isaan qulqulleessuu dha.’”
or have caused them to bear the iniquity of the guilt-offering in their eating their holy things; for I [am] YHWH, sanctifying them.”
17 Waaqayyo Museedhaan akkana jedhe;
And YHWH speaks to Moses, saying,
18 “Aroonitti, ilmaan isaattii fi Israaʼeloota hundatti akkana jedhii himi; ‘Yeroo saba Israaʼel keessaa namni tokko yookaan alagaan Israaʼel keessa jiraatu kam iyyuu aarsaa gubamu godhee wareega isaa yookaan aarsaa fedhiidhaan dhiʼaatu Waaqayyoof dhiʼeessutti,
“Speak to Aaron, and to his sons, and to all the sons of Israel, and you have said to them: Any man of the house of Israel, or of the sojourners in Israel, who brings his offering near, of all his vows, or of all his willing offerings which they bring near to YHWH for a burnt-offering—
19 isin akka wanni sun fudhatama isiniif argatuuf loon, hoolota yookaan reʼoota keessaa korma hirʼina hin qabne tokko dhiʼeessuu qabdu.
[you bring near] at your pleasure a perfect one, a male of the herd, of the sheep or of the goats;
20 Sababii inni isinii hin fudhatamneef waan hirʼina qabu kam iyyuu hin dhiʼeessinaa
nothing in which [is] blemish do you bring near, for it is not for a pleasing thing for you.
21 Yeroo namni loon yookaan bushaayee keessaa wareega guuttachuuf aarsaa fedhiidhaan dhiʼeeffamu godhee aarsaa nagaa Waaqayyoof dhiʼeessutti akka wanni sun fudhatama argatuuf wanni sun waan fayyaalessa yookaan waan hirʼina hin qabne haa taʼu.
And when a man brings a sacrifice of peace-offerings near to YHWH, to complete a special vow, or for a willing-offering, of the herd or of the flock, it is perfect for a pleasing thing: no blemish is in it.
22 Horii jaamaa yookaan cabaa yookaan dooluu yookaan kormommuu yookaan kan dhangalaʼaan dhagna isaa keessaa baʼu yookaan kan madaa malaʼu qabu Waaqayyoof hin dhiʼeessinaa. Kanneen akkasii keessaa tokko iyyuu aarsaa ibiddaan Waaqayyoof dhiʼeeffamu gootanii iddoo aarsaa irra hin kaaʼinaa.
Blind, or broken, or maimed, or [having] an oozing sore [[or a defect of the eye]], or itch, or scab—you do not bring these near to YHWH, and you do not make a fire-offering from them on the altar to YHWH.
23 Taʼus sangaa yookaan hoolaa gar malee dheeraa yookaan gar malee gabaabaa taʼe aarsaa fedhiidhaan dhiʼaatu gootanii dhiʼeessuu ni dandeessu; garuu wanni kun wareega keessan guutuuf fudhatama hin argatu.
As for an ox or sheep [that] is deformed or stunted—you make it a willing-offering, but it is not pleasing for a vow.
24 Horii kolaafame yookaan kan tumame, kan kolaan isaa baqaqfame yookaan irraa murame tokko Waaqayyoof hin dhiʼeessinaa; isin waan akkasii biyya keessan keessatti hin godhinaa;
As for bruised, or beaten, or torn, or cut—you do not bring [it] near to YHWH; and in your land you do not do it.
25 horii akkasii nama ormaa harkaa fuutanii nyaata Waaqa keessanii gootanii hin dhiʼeessinaa. Horiin sun waan kolaafamee hirʼina qabuuf isiniif hin fudhatamu.’”
And you do not bring the bread of your God near from the hand of a son of a stranger, from any of these, for their corruption [is] in them; blemish [is] in them; they are not pleasing for you.”
26 Waaqayyo Museedhaan akkana jedhe;
And YHWH speaks to Moses, saying,
27 “Dibichi yookaan hoolaan yookaan reʼeen yommuu dhalatutti hamma bultii torbaatti haadha isaa wajjin haa turu. Guyyaa saddeettaffaadhaa jalqabee immoo aarsaa ibiddaan Waaqayyoof dhiʼeeffamu taʼee fudhatama ni argata.
“When ox, or lamb, or goat is born, and it has been under its mother [for] seven days, then from the eighth day and from now on, it is pleasing for an offering, a fire-offering to YHWH;
28 Guyyuma tokkotti, saʼa yookaan hoolaa ilmoo isaa wajjin hin qalinaa.
but an ox or sheep—you do not slaughter it and its young one in one day.
29 “Gaafa aarsaa galataa Waaqayyoof dhiʼeessitanitti akka isiniif fudhatamuuf haala kanaan dhiʼeessaa.
And when you sacrifice a sacrifice of thanksgiving to YHWH, you sacrifice at your pleasure;
30 Aarsaan kunis gaafuma sana nyaatamuu qaba; waan tokko illee hin bulchinaa. Ani Waaqayyo.
it is eaten on that day—you do not leave of it until morning; I [am] YHWH.
31 “Ajajawwan koo eegaa; duukaa buʼaas. Ani Waaqayyo.
And you have kept my commands and have done them; I [am] YHWH;
32 Maqaa koo qulqullicha hin xureessinaa. Akka ani qulqulluu taʼe Israaʼeloonni haa beeksisan. Ani Waaqayyo kan isin qulqulleessu
and you do not defile My holy Name, and I have been hallowed in the midst of the sons of Israel; I [am] YHWH, sanctifying you,
33 kanan Waaqa keessan taʼuudhaaf biyya Gibxii isin baasee dha. Ani Waaqayyo.”
who am bringing you up out of the land of Egypt, to become your God; I [am] YHWH.”
