Lakkoobsa 8
1 Waaqayyo Museedhaan akkana jedhe;
And Jehovah spoke to Moses saying,
2 “Aroonitti akkana jedhii dubbadhu; ‘Yeroo ati ibsaawwan torban qabsiiftutti isaan iddoo baattuu ibsaa fuula dura jiru haa ibsan.’”
Speak unto Aaron, and say unto him, When thou lightest the lamps, the seven lamps shall give light over against the candlestick.
3 Aroonis akkasuma godhe; innis akkuma Waaqayyo Musee ajajetti akka isaan fuula baattuu ibsaa duraan ifa kennaniif ibsaawwan sana qabsiise.
And Aaron did so; he lighted the lamps thereof over against the candlestick, as Jehovah had commanded Moses.
4 Akki itti baattuun ibsaa tolfame akkana: Miilla isaa irraa jalqabee hamma daraaraa isaatti warqee tumame irraa hojjetame. Baattuun ibsaa sun akkuma fakkeenya Waaqayyo Museetti argisiise sanaatti hojjetame.
And this was the work of the candlestick: [it was] of beaten gold; from its base to its flowers was it beaten work; according to the form which Jehovah had shewn Moses, so had he made the candlestick.
5 Waaqayyo Museedhaan akkana jedhe:
And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
6 “Saba Israaʼel keessaa Lewwota fuudhii qulqulleessi.
Take the Levites from among the children of Israel, and cleanse them.
7 Isaan qulqulleessuufis waan kana godhi: bishaan qulqullaaʼummaa isaanitti facaasi; akka isaan dhagna isaanii guutuu haaddatanii akkasiin uffata ofii miiccatanii of qulqulleessan godhi.
And thus shalt thou do unto them, to cleanse them: sprinkle upon them water of purification from sin; and they shall pass the razor over all their flesh, and shall wash their garments, and make themselves clean.
8 Isaanis dibicha loonii tokko kennaa midhaanii kan daakuu bullaaʼaa zayitiidhaan sukkuumame wajjin haa fuudhan; atis dibicha loonii lammaffaa aarsaa cubbuutiif fuudhi.
And they shall take a young bullock and its oblation of fine flour mingled with oil; and another young bullock shalt thou take for a sin-offering.
9 Lewwota fuula dunkaana wal gaʼii duratti dhiʼeessiitii waldaa Israaʼelootaa guutuu walitti qabi.
And thou shalt bring the Levites before the tent of meeting; and thou shalt gather together the whole assembly of the children of Israel.
10 Lewwotas fuula Waaqayyoo duratti dhiʼeessi; sabni Israaʼel harka isaanii Lewwota irra haa kaaʼan.
And thou shalt bring the Levites before Jehovah; and the children of Israel shall put their hands upon the Levites.
11 Aroonis akka Lewwonni Waaqayyo tajaajiluu dandaʼaniif saba Israaʼel keessaa aarsaa sochoofamu godhee fuula Waaqayyoo duratti isaan haa dhiʼeessu.
And Aaron shall offer the Levites as a wave-offering before Jehovah from the children of Israel, and they shall perform the service of Jehovah.
12 “Erga Lewwonni harka isaanii mataa jiboota sanaa irra kaaʼanii booddee ati Lewwotaaf araaraa buusuudhaaf dibicha tokko aarsaa cubbuu, kaan immoo aarsaa gubamu godhiitii Waaqayyoof dhiʼeessi.
And the Levites shall lay their hands upon the heads of the bullocks, and thou shalt offer the one for a sin-offering, and the other for a burnt-offering, to Jehovah, to make atonement for the Levites.
13 Akka Lewwonni fuula Aroonii fi fuula ilmaan isaa dura dhaabatan godhi; ergasiis aarsaa sochoofamu godhiitii Waaqayyotti isaan dhiʼeessi.
And thou shalt set the Levites before Aaron, and before his sons, and offer them as a wave-offering to Jehovah.
14 Haala kanaan Israaʼeloota kaan keessaa Lewwota addaan baasi; Lewwonnis kan koo haa taʼan.
And thou shalt separate the Levites from among the children of Israel, that the Levites may be mine.
15 “Erga ati Lewwota qulqulleessitee aarsaa sochoofamu gootee isaan dhiʼeessitee booddees isaan hojii dunkaana wal gaʼii hojjechuuf haa dhufan.
And afterwards shall the Levites come in to do the service of the tent of meeting. And thou shalt cleanse them, and offer them as a wave-offering.
16 Isaan Israaʼeloota keessaa guutumaan guutuutti naaf kennamuu qabu. Ani qooda hangafa saba Israaʼel kan gadameessa saaqu hundaa Lewwota ofii kootiif fudhadheera.
For they are wholly given unto me from among the children of Israel; instead of every one that breaketh open the womb, instead of every firstborn among the children of Israel, have I taken them unto me.
17 Israaʼel keessaa dhiirri hangafni hundi namas taʼu horiin kan koo ti. Ani yeroon biyya Gibxi keessatti hangafa hunda ajjeese sana ofii kootiifan addaan isaan baafadhe.
For all the firstborn among the children of Israel are mine, both of man and beast; on the day that I smote every firstborn in the land of Egypt, I hallowed them to myself.
18 Ani qooda ilmaan Israaʼel hangafoota hundaa Lewwota fudhadheera.
And I have taken the Levites instead of all the firstborn among the children of Israel.
19 Yommuu Israaʼeloonni iddoo qulqulluutti dhiʼaatanitti akka dhaʼichi isaan hin arganneef, akka isaan Israaʼelootaaf araara buusanii fi akka isaan tajaajila Israaʼelootaa dunkaana wal gaʼii keessatti raawwataniif ani Lewwota saba Israaʼel hunda keessaa Aroonii fi ilmaan isaatiif kennaa godhee kenneera.”
And I have given the Levites as a gift to Aaron and to his sons, from among the children of Israel, to perform the service of the children of Israel in the tent of meeting, and to make atonement for the children of Israel; that there be no plague among the children of Israel, when the children of Israel draw near to the sanctuary.
20 Museen, Aroonii fi waldaan Israaʼel guutuun akkuma Waaqayyo Musee ajaje sana Lewwotas godhan.
And Moses and Aaron, and all the assembly of the children of Israel, did to the Levites according to all that Jehovah had commanded Moses concerning the Levites: so did the children of Israel to them.
21 Lewwonnis of qulqulleessanii wayyaa ofii miiccatan. Aroonis akkuma aarsaa sochoofamuutti fuula Waaqayyoo duratti isaan dhiʼeesse; isaan qulqulleessuufis araara isaaniif buuse.
And the Levites purified themselves from sin, and they washed their garments; and Aaron offered them as a wave-offering before Jehovah; and Aaron made atonement for them to cleanse them.
22 Ergasii Lewwonni qajeelcha Aroonii fi ilmaan isaatiin hojii dunkaana wal gaʼii hojjechuudhaaf dhufan. Isaanis akkuma Waaqayyo Musee ajaje sana Lewwotas godhan.
And afterwards the Levites came in to perform their service in the tent of meeting before Aaron, and before his sons; as Jehovah had commanded Moses concerning the Levites, so did they to them.
23 Waaqayyo Museedhaan akkana jedhe;
And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
24 “Kun seera Lewwotaaf kennamee dha: Dhiironni umuriin isaanii waggaa digdamii shanii fi hammasii olii hojii dunkaana wal gaʼii keessatti hirmaachuuf haa dhufan;
This is that which concerneth the Levites: from twenty-five years old and upward shall he come to labour in the work of the service of the tent of meeting.
25 umurii waggaa shantamaatti garuu tajaajila isaanii haa dhaaban; deebiʼaniis hin tajaajilin.
And from fifty years old he shall retire from the labour of the service, and shall serve no more;
26 Hojii dunkaana wal gaʼii irratti obboloota ofii gargaaruu ni dandaʼu; ofii isaaniitii garuu hojii sana hin hojjetin. Egaa kun haala itti ati itti gaafatama Lewwotaa ramadduu dha.”
but he shall minister with his brethren in the tent of meeting, and keep the charge, but he shall not serve [in] the service. Thus shalt thou do unto the Levites with regard to their charges.
