28 “Namoonni hafan kaan jechuunis luboonni, Lewwonni, eegdonni karraa, faarfattoonni, tajaajiltoonni mana qulqullummaatii fi warri Seera Waaqaatiif jedhanii saboota ollaa irraa kophaa of baasan hundinuu niitota isaanii, ilmaanii fi intallan isaanii kanneen waa hubachuu dandaʼan hunda wajjin
And the rest of the people, the priests, the Levites, the gate-keepers, the singers, the temple-servants, and all those that had separated themselves from the nations of the lands unto the law of God, their wives, their sons, and their daughters, every one having knowledge, and having understanding,
29 obboloota isaanii bebeekamootti dabalamanii akka Seera Waaqaa kan karaa Musee garbicha Waaqaa sanaatiin kenname sana eeganiif ajaja, seeraa fi labsii Waaqayyo Gooftaa keenyaa hundaaf ajajamaniif abaarsaa fi kakuudhaan waadaa galan.
Held firmly with their brethren, their nobles, and entered into a curse, and into an oath, to walk in the law of God, which was given through means of Moses the servant of God, and to observe and to do all the commandments of the Eternal One, our Lord, and his ordinances and his statutes;
30 “Nu akka warra naannoo keenya jiraatanitti intallan keenya hin heerumsiifne yookaan akka ilmaan keenya illee intallan isaanii hin fuusifne waadaa galla.
And that we would not give our daughters unto the people of the land, nor take their daughters for our sons;
31 “Yoo saboonni ollaa keenya jiraatan miʼa daldalaa yookaan midhaan gurguraa guyyaa Sanbataatiin fidan nu guyyaa Sanbataatiin yookaan guyyaa qulqulluu kamiin iyyuu isaan irraa hin bitannu. Waggaa torbaffaa kam iyyuu lafa qotiisaa boqochiifnee idaa hunda namaaf ni dhiifna.
And that if the people of the land should bring wares or any provisions on the sabbath day to sell, we would not buy of them on the sabbath, or on [another] holy day; and that we would leave [the fields without reaping in] the seventh year, and [give up] every loan of hand.
32 “Akka waggaa hunda tajaajila mana Waaqa keenyaatiif jennee saqilii argannu harka sadii keessaa harka tokko kenninu itti gaafatamummaa ni fudhanna;
And we established for us as one of the commandments to impose on ourselves [to give] the third part of a shekel in every year for the service of the house of our God;
33 kunis buddeena minjaala irratti dhiʼeeffamuuf, kennaa midhaaniitii fi aarsaa gubamu kan yeroo yerootti dhiʼeeffamuuf, aarsaa guyyaa Sanbataatiif, kan ayyaana Baatii Haaraatii fi kan ayyaanota bebeekamoo, aarsaawwan qulqullaaʼoodhaaf, aarsaawwan cubbuu kanneen Israaʼeliif araara buusuuf dhiʼeeffamaniif, akkasumas hojiiwwan mana Waaqa keenyaa keessaa hundaafii dha.
For the shew-bread, and for the continual meat-offering, and for the continual burnt-offering, [for those of] the sabbaths, of the new-moons, for the appointed feasts, and for the holy things, and for the sin-offerings to make an atonement for Israel, and [for] all the work of the house of our God.
34 “Nu, luboonni, Lewwonnii fi sabni yeroo itti tokkoon tokkoon maatiiwwan keenyaa akkuma Seera keessatti barreeffametti waggaa hunda keessaa yeroo murteeffametti iddoo aarsaa Waaqayyo Waaqa keenyaa irratti bobeessuuf kennaa qoraanii gara mana Waaqa keenyaa fiduu qabnu beekuuf ixaa buufanneerra.
And we, the priests, the Levites, and the people, cast lots concerning the procuring of the wood, to bring it into the house of our God, unto the house of our fathers, at fixed times, year by year, to burn upon the altar of the Lord our God, as it is written in the law;
35 “Akkasumas nu mataa midhaan keenyaatii fi mataa muka ija kennuu hunda waggaa waggaadhaan gara mana Waaqayyoo fiduuf itti gaafatama fudhanneerra.
And to bring the first-fruits of our ground, and the first-fruits of all fruit of all trees, year by year, unto the house of the Lord;
36 “Akkuma Seera keessatti barreeffametti hangafa ilmaan keenyaatii fi hangafa loon keenyaa, hangafa horii keenyaatii fi hangafa bushaayee keenyaa gara mana Waaqa keenyaa, luboota achi keessa tajaajilanitti ni geessina.
And also the first-born of our sons, and for our [unclean] cattle, as it is written in the law, and to bring the first-born of our herds and of our flocks to the house of our God, unto the priests that minister in the house of our God;
37 “Kana malees nu daakuu keenya kan bukeeffame irraa, kennaawwan midhaan keenyaa irraa, ija mukkeen keenyaa hunda irraa, daadhii wayinii keenyaa haaraa fi zayitii irraa mataa fuunee gara mankuusaalee mana Waaqa keenyaa lubootatti geessina. Amma illee sababii warri harka kudhan keessaa harka tokko walitti qaban Lewwota taʼaniif magaalaawwan keessa hojjennu hunda keessaa oomisha midhaan keenyaa harka kudhan keessaa harka tokko Lewwotatti geessina.
And that we would bring the first portion of our dough, and our heave-offerings, and this of the fruit of all manner of trees, of wine and of oil, to the priests, unto the chambers of the house of our God, and the tithes of our ground unto the Levites; and that these same Levites should be the receivers of the tithes in all the cities of our land-tillage;
38 Yeroo Lewwonni kennaa harka kudhan keessaa tokko walitti qabanitti lubni sanyii Aroon keessaa dhalate tokko isaan wajjin jiraachuu qaba; ergasii Lewwonni kennaa walitti qaban sana keessaa harka kudhan keessaa tokko gara mana Waaqa keenyaa, gara mankuusaa qabeenyaatti fiduu qabu.
And that the priest the son of Aaron should be with the Levites, when the Levites receive the tithes; and that the Levites should bring up the tithe of the tithes unto the house of our God, to the chambers, into the treasure-house.
39 Sabni Israaʼelii fi ilmaan Lewwii kennaa midhaanii, kan daadhii wayinii haaraa fi kan zayitii gara mankuusaalee miʼi mana qulqullummaa kaaʼamu, iddoo luboonni tajaajilan, eegdonni karraa fi faarfattoonni taaʼanitti fiduu qabu. “Nus mana Waaqa keenyaa hin dagannu.”
For into the chambers shall the children of Israel and the children of Levi bring the heave-offering of the corn, of the new wine, and the oil, and there shall be the vessels of the sanctuary, and the priests that minister, and the gatekeepers, and the singers: and that we will not forsake the house of our God.
