Lewwota 19
1 Waaqayyo Museedhaan akkana jedhe;
Adonai spoke to Moses [Drawn out], saying,
2 “Akkana jedhii waldaa saba Israaʼel hundatti himi; ‘Ani Waaqayyo Waaqni keessan qulqulluudhaatii isinis qulqulloota taʼaa.
“Speak to all the congregation of the children of Israel [God prevails], and tell them, ‘You shall be holy; for I, Adonai your God, am holy.
3 “‘Tokkoon tokkoon keessan haadha keessanii fi abbaa keessaniif ulfina kennaa; Sanbatoota koos eegaa. Ani Waaqayyo Waaqa keessan.
“‘Each one of you shall respect his mother and his father. You shall keep my Sabbaths. I am Adonai your God.
4 “‘Gara waaqota tolfamootti hin deebiʼinaa yookaan sibiila baqfame irraa ofii keessaniif waaqota hin tolfatinaa. Ani Waaqayyo Waaqa keessan.
“‘Don’t turn to idols, nor make molten deities for yourselves. I am Adonai your God.
5 “‘Yommuu aarsaa nagaa Waaqayyoof dhiʼeessitanitti akka aarsaan keessan fudhatama isiniif argatu godhaatii dhiʼeessaa.
“‘When you offer a sacrifice of peace offerings to Adonai, you shall offer it so that you may be accepted.
6 Aarsaan isin dhiʼeessitanis guyyuma sana yookaan guyyaa itti aanu haa nyaatamu; garuu wanni hafee hamma guyyaa sadaffaatti ture haa gubamu.
It shall be eaten the same day you offer it, and on the next day: and if anything remains until the third day, it shall be burned with fire.
7 Waan kana keessaa tokko iyyuu yoo guyyaa sadaffaatti nyaatame xuraaʼaa dha; fudhatamas hin argatu.
If it is eaten at all on the third day, it is an abomination. It will not be accepted;
8 Namni waan sana nyaatu sababii waan Waaqayyoon qulqulleeffame xureesseef itti gaafatama; namichi sun saba isaa keessaa haa balleeffamu.
but everyone who eats it shall bear his iniquity, because he has profaned the holy thing of Adonai, and that soul shall be cut off from his people.
9 “‘Yommuu oomisha lafa keessanii walitti qabattanitti hamma daariitti hin haaminaa; qarmii isaa illee hin funaannatinaa.
“‘When you reap the harvest of your land, you shall not wholly reap the corners of your field, neither shall you gather the gleanings of your harvest.
10 Qarmii iddoo dhaabaa wayinii keetii hin funaanin yookaan ija wayinii keetii kan harcaʼe hin funaanin. Hiyyeeyyii fi alagootaaf dhiisaa. Ani Waaqayyo Waaqa keessan.

“‘You shall do no injustice in judgment. You shall not be partial to the poor, nor show favoritism to the great; but you shall judge your neighbor uprightly.
16 “‘Saba kee gidduutti hamii hin facaasin. “‘Waan jireenya ollaa keetii balaa irra buusu hin hojjetin. Ani Waaqayyo.
“‘You shall not go up and down as a slanderer among your people. “‘You shall not endanger the life of your neighbor. I am Adonai.
17 “‘Garaa keetti obboleessa kee hin jibbin; akka cubbuu isaa keessatti qooda hin qabaanneef ollaa kee ifaan ifatti itti dheekkami.
“‘You shall not hate your brother in your heart. You shall surely rebuke your neighbor, and not bear sin because of him.
18 “‘Saba kee keessaa nama tokkotti iyyuu haaloo hin baʼin yookaan haaloo itti hin qabatin; ollaa kee garuu akkuma ofii keetiitti jaalladhu. Ani Waaqayyo.
“‘You shall not take vengeance or revenge, nor bear any grudge against the children of your people; but you shall 'ahav ·affectionately love· your neighbor as yourself. I am Adonai.
19 “‘Sirna koo eegaa. “‘Horii gosa gosaa walitti hin diqaalomsinaa. “‘Midhaan gosa lama lafa qotiisaa keessanitti hin facaasinaa. “‘Wayyaa waan lama irraa hojjetame hin uffatinaa.
“‘You shall keep my regulations. “‘You shall not cross-breed different kinds of animals. “‘You shall not sow your field with two kinds of seed; “‘Don’t wear a garment made of two kinds of material.
20 “‘Namni garbittii nama biraaf kaadhimamte kan hin furamin yookaan bilisummaan ishee hin kennaminiif wajjin yoo wal bira gaʼe isaan adabamuu qabu; taʼus waan dubartiin sun hin bilisoominiif isaan hin ajjeefamin.

21 Namichi sun garuu korbeessa hoolaa tokko aarsaa yakkaatiif gara balbala dunkaana wal gaʼiitti Waaqayyoof haa fidu.
He shall bring his trespass offering to Adonai, to the door of the Tent of Meeting, even a ram for a trespass offering.
22 Lubichis korbeessa hoolaa aarsaa yakkaa sanaan cubbuu namichi hojjete sanaaf fuula Waaqayyoo duratti araara haa buusu; cubbuun namichaas ni dhiifamaaf.
The priest shall make atonement for him with the ram of the trespass offering before Adonai for his sin which he has committed: and the sin which he has committed shall be forgiven him.
23 “‘Isin yommuu biyyattiitti galtanii muka ija kennu kan gosa hundaa dhaabdanitti, akka waan iji isaa dhowwameetti fudhadhaa. Isin akka waan iji sun hamma waggaa sadiitti dhowwameetti ilaalaa; iji sun hin nyaatamin.

24 Waggaa afuraffaatti immoo iji isaa hundinuu ni qulqullaaʼa; Waaqayyoofis aarsaa galataa taʼa.
But in the fourth year all its fruit shall be holy, for giving praise to Adonai.
