Lewwota 27

1 Waaqayyo Museedhaan akkana jedhe;

And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,

2 “Akkana jedhii Israaʼelootatti himi: ‘Namni yoo gatii wal madaalu kennuudhaan Waaqayyoof nama kennuuf wareega addaa godhe,

Speak unto the children of Israel and say unto them, When any one devoteth [anything] by a vow, the persons shall be for Jehovah according to thy valuation.

3 dhiira umuriin isaa waggaa digdamaa hamma jaatamaa taʼeef, akka safartuu saqilii iddoo qulqulluutti herregni isaa meetii saqilii shantama haa taʼu.

And thy valuation shall be of the male from twenty years old even unto sixty years old: thy valuation shall be fifty shekels of silver, after the shekel of the sanctuary;

4 Yoo dubartii taate immoo herregni ishee meetii saqilii soddoma haa taʼu.

and if it be of a female, thy valuation shall be thirty shekels.

5 Yoo nama umuriin isaa waggaa shanii fi digdama gidduu taʼe, herregni dhiiraa meetii saqilii digdamatti, kan dubartii immoo meetii saqilii kudhanitti haa herregamu.

And if it be from five years old even unto twenty years old, thy valuation of the male shall be twenty shekels, and for the female ten shekels.

6 Nama umuriin isaa jiʼa tokkoo hamma waggaa shanii taʼe immoo herregni isaa, dhiiraaf meetii saqilii shan, durbaaf immoo meetii saqilii sadii haa taʼu.

And if it be from a month old even unto five years old, thy valuation of the male shall be five shekels of silver; and for the female thy valuation shall be three shekels of silver.

7 Namni umuriin isaa waggaa jaatama yookaan sanaa ol taʼe dhiirri meetii saqilii kudha shanitti, dubartiin immoo meetii saqilii kudhanitti haa herregamu.

And if it be from sixty years old and above, if it be a male, thy valuation shall be fifteen shekels; and for the female ten shekels.

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.

And if he be poorer than thy valuation, he shall present himself before the priest, and the priest shall value him: according to his means that vowed shall the priest value him.

9 “‘Wanni namichi sun wareege horii fuula Waaqayyoo duratti aarsaa fudhatama qabu yoo taʼe horiin Waaqayyoof kenname kan akkasii hundi ni qulqullaaʼa.

And if it be a beast whereof men bring an offering unto Jehovah, all that they give of such unto Jehovah 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.

They shall not alter it nor change it, a good for a bad, or a bad for a good; and if he at all change beast for beast, then it and the exchange thereof shall be holy.

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;

And if it be any unclean beast, of which they do not bring an offering unto Jehovah, then he shall present the beast before the priest;

12 lubichis akka horiin sun gaarii yookaan jibbamaa taʼe haa madaalu. Gatiin lubni madaale akkasuma haa taʼu.

and the priest shall value it, [judging] between good and bad: according to the valuation of the priest, so shall it be.

13 Namichi sun yoo horii sana furachuu barbaade gatii herregame sanatti harka shan keessaa harka tokko itti dabaluu qaba.

And if they will in any wise redeem it, then they shall add a fifth [part] thereof unto thy valuation.

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.

And when any one halloweth his house, that it may be holy to Jehovah, the priest shall value it, [judging] between good and bad: as the priest shall value it, so shall it stand.

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.

And if he that halloweth it will redeem his house, he shall add the fifth of the money of thy valuation unto it, and it shall be his.

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.

And if a man hallow to Jehovah [part] of a field of his possession, thy valuation shall be according to what may be sown in it: the homer of barley seed at fifty shekels of silver.

17 Yoo inni lafa qotiisaa isaa Waggaa Iyyoobeeliyyuu keessa qulqulleesse gatiin duraan hedame sun hin geeddaramu.

If he hallow his field from the year of jubilee, according to thy valuation shall it stand;

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 he hallow his field after the jubilee, then the priest shall reckon unto him the money according to the years that remain, until the year of the jubilee; and there shall be a reduction from thy valuation.

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.

And if he that hallowed the field will in any wise redeem it, he shall add the fifth of the money of thy valuation unto it, and it shall be assured to him;

20 Taʼus yoo inni lafa qotiisaa sana furachuu baate, yookaan dabarsee nama biraatti gurgure, lafti qotiisaa sun deebiʼee furamuu hin dandaʼu.

but if he do not redeem the field, or if he sell the field to another man, it cannot be redeemed any more;

21 Lafti qotiisaa sun yommuu Waggaa Iyyoobeeliyyuu keessa gad dhiifamutti akkuma lafa qotiisaa Waaqayyoof kennameetti addaan baafama; kunis qabeenya lubootaa taʼa.

and the field, when it goeth out in the jubilee, shall be holy to Jehovah, as a field devoted; the possession thereof shall be the priest's.

22 “‘Yoo namni tokko lafa qotiisaa dhaalaan hin argatin kan ofii isaatii bitate Waaqayyoof qulqulleesse,

And if he hallow to Jehovah a field that he hath bought, which is not of the fields of his possession,

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 reckon unto him the amount of thy valuation, unto the year of the jubilee; and he shall give thy valuation on that day, [as] holy to Jehovah.

24 Waggaa Iyyoobeeliyyuuttis lafti qotiisaa sun namichuma irraa bitame kan abbaa lafa qotiisaa sanaa tureef ni deebiʼa.

In the year of the jubilee the field shall return unto him of whom it was bought — to him to whom the land belonged.

25 Gatiin hundinuu akka madaalii saqilii iddoo qulqulluutti jechuunis geeraan digdamni saqilii tokkootti herregama.

And all thy valuation shall be according to the shekel of the sanctuary: twenty gerahs shall be the shekel.

26 “‘Taʼus namni tokko iyyuu horii hangafa qulqulleessuu hin dandaʼu; hangafti duraanuu Waaqayyoof qulqulleeffameeraatii; sangaas taʼu hoolaan hangafni kan Waaqayyoo ti.

Only the firstling which is offered as firstling to Jehovah among the cattle, that shall no man hallow, whether it be ox or sheep; it is Jehovah's.

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 be of an unclean beast, then he shall ransom it according to thy valuation, and shall add a fifth of it thereto; and if it be not redeemed, it shall be sold according to thy valuation.

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.

Notwithstanding, no devoted thing that a man hath devoted to Jehovah of all that he hath, of man or beast, or of the field of his possession, shall be sold or redeemed: every devoted thing is most holy to Jehovah.

29 “‘Namni akka ajjeefamuuf murteeffame tokko illee hin furamu; inni ajjeefamuu qaba.

Nothing devoted, which shall be devoted from among men, shall be ransomed: it shall certainly be put to death.

30 “‘Wanni lafti baaftu kam iyyuu sanyiis taʼu ija mukaa harka kudhan keessaa harki tokko kan Waaqayyoo ti; kun waan Waaqayyoof qulqulleeffamee dha.

And as to every tithe of the land, of the seed of the land, and of the fruit of the tree, it is Jehovah's: it is holy to Jehovah.

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.

And if any one will at all redeem of his tithes, he shall add thereto the fifth thereof.

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.

And as to every tithe of the herd, or of the flock, of whatever passeth under the rod, the tenth shall be holy to Jehovah.

33 Inni horii jibbamaa keessaa horii gaarii hin filatin yookaan iddoo hin buusin; yoo inni iddoo buuse horiin lamaanuu qulqulluu taʼu; furamuus hin dandaʼu.’”

He shall not search whether it be good or bad, neither shall he change it; and if he change it at all, then both it and the exchange thereof shall be holy; it shall not be redeemed.

34 Kunneen ajajawwan Waaqayyo Gaara Siinaa irratti karaa Museetiin Israaʼelootaaf kennee dha.

These are the commandments which Jehovah commanded Moses for the children of Israel upon mount Sinai.
