Lewwota 27
1 Waaqayyo Museedhaan akkana jedhe;
And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
2 “Akkana jedhii Israaʼelootatti himi: ‘Namni yoo gatii wal madaalu kennuudhaan Waaqayyoof nama kennuuf wareega addaa godhe,
Speak to the sons of Israel, and you shall say to them: The man who will have made a vow and espoused his soul to God shall give the price according to the estimation.
3 dhiira umuriin isaa waggaa digdamaa hamma jaatamaa taʼeef, akka safartuu saqilii iddoo qulqulluutti herregni isaa meetii saqilii shantama haa taʼu.
If it is a male from twenty years to sixty years, he shall give fifty shekels of silver, by the measure of the Sanctuary;
4 Yoo dubartii taate immoo herregni ishee meetii saqilii soddoma haa taʼu.
if it is a woman, thirty.
5 Yoo nama umuriin isaa waggaa shanii fi digdama gidduu taʼe, herregni dhiiraa meetii saqilii digdamatti, kan dubartii immoo meetii saqilii kudhanitti haa herregamu.
But from the fifth year until the twentieth, a male shall give twenty shekels; a female, ten.
6 Nama umuriin isaa jiʼa tokkoo hamma waggaa shanii taʼe immoo herregni isaa, dhiiraaf meetii saqilii shan, durbaaf immoo meetii saqilii sadii haa taʼu.
From one month until the fifth year, for a male, five shekels shall be given; for a female, three.
7 Namni umuriin isaa waggaa jaatama yookaan sanaa ol taʼe dhiirri meetii saqilii kudha shanitti, dubartiin immoo meetii saqilii kudhanitti haa herregamu.
At sixty years and beyond, a male shall give fifteen shekels; a female, ten.
8 Namni wareega wareegu hiyyoomee gatii murtaaʼe sana yoo baasuu dadhabe, Museen nama sana lubatti haa fidu; lubni immoo akkuma dandeettii namicha wareega wareege sanaatti gatii isaa haa herreguuf.
If he is poor, and he does not have the means to pay the estimation, he shall stand before the priest, and however much he will value him and see that he is able to pay, so much shall he give.
9 “‘Wanni namichi sun wareege horii fuula Waaqayyoo duratti aarsaa fudhatama qabu yoo taʼe horiin Waaqayyoof kenname kan akkasii hundi ni qulqullaaʼa.
But an animal which could be immolated to the Lord, if anyone has vowed it, shall be holy,
10 Namichis horii sana geeddaruu yookaan horii gaarii horii jibbamaan yookaan horii jibbamaa horii gaarii iddoo hin buusin; yoo inni horii tokko horii biraa iddoo buuse horiin lamaanuu qulqulluu taʼu.
and it cannot be exchanged, that is, neither better for worse, nor worse for better. And if he has exchanged it, both that which was exchanged, and that for which it was exchanged shall be consecrated to the Lord.
11 Yoo horiin inni wareege sun akka seeraatti xuraaʼaa jechuunis kan Waaqayyoof aarsaa taʼee dhiʼaachuu hin dandeenye taʼe namichi sun horii sana gara lubatti haa fidu;
An unclean animal which could not be sacrificed to the Lord, if anyone has vowed it, shall be led before the priest,
12 lubichis akka horiin sun gaarii yookaan jibbamaa taʼe haa madaalu. Gatiin lubni madaale akkasuma haa taʼu.
who, judging whether it is either good or bad, shall set the price.
13 Namichi sun yoo horii sana furachuu barbaade gatii herregame sanatti harka shan keessaa harka tokko itti dabaluu qaba.
But if he who offers it was willing to give, he shall add a fifth part above the estimation.
14 “‘Yoo namni tokko mana ofii Waaqayyoof qulqulleesse, akka manni sun gaarii yookaan gadhee taʼe lubichi gatii isaa haa herregu. Gatiin lubni madaale akkasuma haa taʼu.
If a man has vowed his house, and he has sanctified it to the Lord, the priest shall examine it, whether it is good or bad, and it shall be sold according to the price which he will have established.
15 Namichi mana isaa Waaqaaf qulqulleesse sun yoo mana ofii furachuu barbaade, gatii herregame sanatti harka shan keessaa harka tokko itti dabaluu qaba; manni sunis deebiʼee kan isaa taʼa.
But if he who vowed it was willing to redeem it, he shall give a fifth part beyond the estimation, and he shall have the house.
16 “‘Yoo namni lafa dhaalaan argate irraa Waaqayyoof qulqulleesse gatiin lafa sanaa akkuma baayʼina sanyii lafa sanaaf barbaachisuutti jechuunis garbuun safartuun homeerii tokko meetii saqilii shantamatti herregama.
But if he has vowed a field of his possession, and has consecrated it to the Lord, the price shall be estimated according to the measure of the seed. If the land would be sown with thirty measures of barley, then let it be sold for fifty shekels of silver.
17 Yoo inni lafa qotiisaa isaa Waggaa Iyyoobeeliyyuu keessa qulqulleesse gatiin duraan hedame sun hin geeddaramu.
If he has vowed his field beginning from the current year of Jubilee, as much as it may be worth, so shall it be estimated.
18 Garuu yoo inni waggaa Iyyoobeeliyyuu booddee lafa qotiisaa isaa qulqulleesse lubichi akkuma baayʼina waggoota hamma waggaa Iyyoobeeliyyuu itti aanuutti jiraniitti herrega; gatiin shallagame gad buʼa.
But if, after some amount of time, the priest shall evaluate the money according to the number of years that remain until the Jubilee, then the price shall be reduced.
19 Yoo namichi lafa qotiisaa isaa Waaqaaf addaan baasu sun lafa qotiisaa isaa furachuu barbaade, inni gatii hedametti harka shan keessaa harka tokko haa dabalu; lafti qotiisaa sunis deebiʼee kan isaa taʼa.
But if he who had vowed it, was willing to redeem his field, he shall add a fifth part of the money to the estimation, and then he shall possess it.
20 Taʼus yoo inni lafa qotiisaa sana furachuu baate, yookaan dabarsee nama biraatti gurgure, lafti qotiisaa sun deebiʼee furamuu hin dandaʼu.
But if he is not willing to redeem it, then it shall be sold to any other; he who vowed it is no longer able to redeem it.
21 Lafti qotiisaa sun yommuu Waggaa Iyyoobeeliyyuu keessa gad dhiifamutti akkuma lafa qotiisaa Waaqayyoof kennameetti addaan baafama; kunis qabeenya lubootaa taʼa.
For when the day of Jubilee arrives, it shall be sanctified to the Lord. And as a possession that has been consecrated, it rightfully belongs to the priest.
22 “‘Yoo namni tokko lafa qotiisaa dhaalaan hin argatin kan ofii isaatii bitate Waaqayyoof qulqulleesse,
If a field has been bought, and it is not from the possession of ancestors, it shall be sanctified to the Lord.
23 lubni gatii lafa qotiisaa sanaa hamma Waggaa Iyyoobeeliyyuutti herrega; namichis gatii herregame sana gaafuma sana kan Waaqayyoof qulqulleeffame godhee haa baasu.
The priest shall evaluate the price according to the number of years until the Jubilee; and the one who had vowed it shall give to the Lord.
24 Waggaa Iyyoobeeliyyuuttis lafti qotiisaa sun namichuma irraa bitame kan abbaa lafa qotiisaa sanaa tureef ni deebiʼa.
Then, in the Jubilee, it shall be returned to the former owner, the one who had sold it and who had held it within the lot of his possession.
25 Gatiin hundinuu akka madaalii saqilii iddoo qulqulluutti jechuunis geeraan digdamni saqilii tokkootti herregama.
All estimation shall be weighed according to the shekel of the Sanctuary. A shekel has twenty obols.
26 “‘Taʼus namni tokko iyyuu horii hangafa qulqulleessuu hin dandaʼu; hangafti duraanuu Waaqayyoof qulqulleeffameeraatii; sangaas taʼu hoolaan hangafni kan Waaqayyoo ti.
The firstborn, which belong to the Lord, no one is able to sanctify or vow, whether it is an ox, or a sheep, they are for the Lord.
27 Yoo horiin sun xuraaʼaa taʼe inni gatii herregame irratti harka shan keessaa harka tokko dabalee deebisee bitachuu dandaʼa. Yoo inni furachuu baate immoo horiin sun gatii isaaf herregametti gurgurama.
But if it is an unclean animal, whoever offers it shall redeem it, according to your estimation, and he shall add a fifth part to the price. If he is not willing to redeem it, it shall be sold to another for whatever amount it was estimated by you.
28 “‘Garuu wanni namni qabu kan inni Waaqayyoof qulqulleessu tokko illee jechuunis namas taʼu horiin yookaan lafti dhaalaan argame hin gurguramu yookaan hin furamu. Wanni akkasiin qulqulleeffame hundinuu akka malee Waaqayyoof qulqulluudhaatii.
All that is consecrated to the Lord, whether it is a man, or an animal, or a field, shall not be sold; neither is it able to be redeemed. Anything, once it has been consecrated, shall be the Holy of holies to the Lord.
29 “‘Namni akka ajjeefamuuf murteeffame tokko illee hin furamu; inni ajjeefamuu qaba.
And all that has been consecrated, which is offered by man, shall not be redeemed, but shall surely die.
30 “‘Wanni lafti baaftu kam iyyuu sanyiis taʼu ija mukaa harka kudhan keessaa harki tokko kan Waaqayyoo ti; kun waan Waaqayyoof qulqulleeffamee dha.
All the tithes of the land, whether from the grain, or from the fruits of trees, are for the Lord and are sanctified to him.
31 Namni yoo kennaa isaa kan harka kudhan keessaa harka tokko taʼe sana furachuu barbaade inni gatii kennaa sanaaf herregame irratti harka shan keessaa harka tokko dabalee haa baasu.
But if anyone is willing to redeem his tithes, he shall add a fifth part to them.
32 Kennaan karra loonii fi bushaayee guutuu keessaa harka kudhan keessaa harka tokko taʼe jechuunis horiin ulee tiksee jala baʼee darbu hunda keessaa harka kudhan keessaa harki tokko Waaqayyoof qulqullaaʼa.
Out of all the tithes of oxen, and sheep, and goats, which cross under the rod of the shepherd, every tenth one that arrives shall be sanctified to the Lord.
33 Inni horii jibbamaa keessaa horii gaarii hin filatin yookaan iddoo hin buusin; yoo inni iddoo buuse horiin lamaanuu qulqulluu taʼu; furamuus hin dandaʼu.’”
It shall not be chosen by what is good or bad; neither shall it be exchanged for another. If anyone has exchanged it, both that which was exchanged, and that for which it was exchanged, shall be sanctified to the Lord and shall not be redeemed.
34 Kunneen ajajawwan Waaqayyo Gaara Siinaa irratti karaa Museetiin Israaʼelootaaf kennee dha.
These are the precepts, which the Lord commanded Moses for the sons of Israel on mount Sinai.
