Lewwota 5

1 “‘Namni tokko yoo waan nama kakachiisu dhagaʼee waaʼee waan arge yookaan beeku sanaa dhugaa baʼuu diduudhaan cubbuu hojjete inni itti gaafatama.

If any one sin, and hear the voice of one swearing, and is a witness either because he himself hath seen, or is privy to it: if he do not utter it, he shall bear his iniquity.

2 “‘Yookaan namni tokko yoo waan akka seeraatti xuraaʼaa taʼe jechuunis raqa bineensa xuraaʼaa yookaan horii xuraaʼaa yookaan uumamawwan xuraaʼoo kanneen lafa irra munyuuqanii utuu hin beekin tuqe inni xuraaʼeera; yakka qabeessas taʼa.

Whosoever toucheth any unclean thing, either that which hath been killed by a beast, or died of itself, or any other creeping thing: and forgetteth his uncleanness, he is guilty, and hath offended:

3 Yookaan inni yoo xuraaʼummaa namaa jechuunis waan isa xureessu kam iyyuu utuu hin beekin tuqe, yommuu waan sana beeketti yakka qabeessa taʼa.

And if he touch any thing of the uncleanness of man, according to any uncleanness wherewith he is wont to be defiled, and having forgotten it, come afterwards to know it, he shall be guilty of an offence.

4 Yookaan namni yoo utuu itti hin yaadin waan gaarii yookaan hamaa gochuuf kakate, waaʼee waan utuu itti hin yaadin kakate sanaa beekuu baatu illee maalumaafuu yommuu waan sana beeketti inni yakka qabeessa taʼa.

The person that sweareth, and uttereth with his lips, that he would do either evil or good, and bindeth the same with an oath, and his word, and having forgotten it afterwards understandeth his offence,

5 Inni yoo karaa kanneen keessaa tokkoon iyyuu yakka qabeessa taʼe karaa kamiin akka hojjete haa himatu;

Let him do penance for his sin,

6 adaba cubbuu hojjete sanaatiifis akka aarsaa cubbuu isaaf taatuuf bushaayee keessaa hoolaa yookaan reʼee dhaltuu Waaqayyoof haa fidu; lubnis cubbuu namichaatiif aarsaa araaraa haa dhiʼeessu.

And offer of the flocks an ewe lamb, or a she goat, and the priest shall pray for him and for his sin:

7 “‘Namichi sun cubbuu hojjeteef hoolaa dhiʼeessuutti harka qalleessa yoo taʼe adabbii cubbuu isaatiif gugee lama yookaan gugee sosookkee lama, tokko aarsaa cubbuutiif tokko immoo aarsaa gubamuuf Waaqayyoof haa fidu.

But if he be not able to offer a beast, let him offer two turtles, or two young pigeons to the Lord, one for sin, and the other for a holocaust,

8 Lubattis isaan haa fidu; lubni immoo kan aarsaa cubbuutiif taatu duraan dursee haa dhiʼeessu. Innis mataa ishee micciiree morma ishee haa cabsu; garuu irraa hin kutin.

And he shall give them to the priest: who shall offer the first for sin, and twist back the head of it to the little pinions, so that it stick to the neck, and be not altogether broken off.

9 Dhiiga aarsaa cubbuu sana irraa fuudhee cinaacha iddoo aarsaatti haa facaasu; dhiigni hafe immoo miilla iddoo aarsaa jalatti haa dhangalaafamu; kun aarsaa cubbuu ti.

And of its blood he shall sprinkle the side of the altar, and whatsoever is left, he shall let it drop at the bottom thereof, because it is for sin.

10 Ergasiis lubichi akkuma ajajametti kan lammaffaa sana aarsaa gubamu godhee cubbuu namichi hojjeteef aarsaa araaraa haa dhiʼeessu; innis dhiifama argata.

And the other he shall burn for a holocaust, as is wont to be done: and the priest shall pray for him, and for his sin, and it shall be forgiven him.

11 “‘Namichi sun yoo gugee lama yookaan gugee sosookkee lama dhiʼeessuutti harka qalleessa taʼe inni cubbuu hojjete sanaaf daakuu bullaaʼaa iifii tokkoo keessaa harka kurnaffaa aarsaa cubbuutiif haa dhiʼeessu. Sababii wanni kun aarsaa cubbuu taʼeef namichi zayitii yookaan ixaana itti hin dabalin.

And if his hand be not able to offer two turtles, or two young pigeons, he shall offer for his sin the tenth part of an ephi of flour. He shall not put oil upon it, nor put any frankincense thereon, because it is for sin:

12 Innis lubatti haa fidu; lubichi immoo konyee tokko irraa fuudhee akka kutaa yaadannoo tokkootti aarsaa ibiddaan Waaqayyoof dhiʼeeffame gubbaatti iddoo aarsaa irratti haa gubu; kun aarsaa cubbuu ti.

And he shall deliver it to the priest: who shall take a handful thereof, and shall burn it upon the altar for a memorial of him that offered it:

13 Lubichis haala kanaan cubbuu namichi hojjeteef araara buusa; innis dhiifama argata. Aarsaan hafe immoo akkuma aarsaa midhaaniitti kan lubichaa taʼa.’”

Praying for him and making atonement: but the part that is left, he himself shall have for a gift.

14 Waaqayyo Museedhaan akkana jedhe;

And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:

15 “Namni yoo seera cabsee utuu hin beekin waan Waaqayyoof qulqulleeffame kam iyyutti cubbuu hojjete inni adabbii cubbuu isaatiif bushaayee keessaa korbeessa hoolaa kan hirʼina hin qabne kan gatiin isaa akka saqilii iddoo qulqulluutti meetiidhaan tilmaamame tokko aarsaa yakkaa godhee Waaqayyoof haa fidu; kun aarsaa yakkaa ti.

If any one shall sin through mistake, transgressing the ceremonies in those things that are sacrificed to the Lord, he shall offer for his offence a ram without blemish out of the flocks, that may be bought for two sicles, according to the weight of the sanctuary:

16 Namichi sunis waan wantoota qulqulluu irraa hirʼise sana iddoo haa buusu; gatii waan sanaa illee harka shan keessaa harka tokko itti dabalee hunda isaa lubatti haa kennu; lubni sunis korbeessa hoolaa aarsaa yakkaatiif dhiʼeeffame sanaan araara buusaaf; innis dhiifama argata.

And he shall make good the damage itself which he hath done, and shall add the fifth part besides, delivering it to the priest, who shall pray for him, offering the ram, and it shall be forgiven him.

17 “Namni yoo cubbuu hojjetee waan ajajawwan Waaqayyoo keessatti dhowwame hojjete, inni yoo beekuu baate illee yakka qabeessa taʼeera; itti gaafatamas.

If any one sin through ignorance, and do one of those things which by the law of the Lord are forbidden, and being guilty of sin, understand his iniquity,

18 Innis akka tilmaama keetiitti bushaayee keessaa korbeessa hoolaa hirʼina hin qabne tokko aarsaa yakkaa godhee lubatti haa fidu. Lubichis haaluma kanaan yakka namichi utuu hin beekin hojjeteef araara buusa; innis dhiifama argata.

He shall offer of the hocks a ram without blemish to the priest, according to the measure and estimation of the sin: and the priest shall pray for him, because he did it ignorantly: and it shall be forgiven him,

19 Kun aarsaa yakkaa ti; namichi sun Waaqayyotti yakka hojjeteera.”

Because by mistake he trespassed against the Lord.
