Sharciga Kunoqoshadiisa 16

1 Bisha Aabiib dhawra, oo Rabbiga Ilaahiinna ah Iiddii Kormaridda u sameeya, waayo, bisha Aabiib ayaa Rabbiga Ilaahiinna ahu habeennimo idinka soo bixiyey dalkii Masar.

“[Each year] honor Yahweh our God by celebrating the Passover [Festival] in the month of Abib [in early spring]. It was on a night in that month that Yahweh rescued your ancestors from Egypt.

2 Oo Iidda Kormaridda waa inaad Rabbiga Ilaahiinna ah u bixisaan neef aad ka qaaddaan idaha iyo lo'da, uguna bixiya meesha uu Rabbiga u dooranayo inuu magiciisa dhigo.

[In order to celebrate that festival], go to the place that Yahweh will choose [for you to worship him], and offer [there one young animal] from your cattle or your sheep to be the Passover sacrifice, to honor Yahweh [MTY].

3 Oo allabariga waa inaydaan kibis khamiir leh ku cunin, toddoba maalmoodse waa inaad ku cuntaan kibis aan khamiir lahayn oo ah kibistii dhibka, waayo, dalkii Masar degdeg baad kaga soo baxdeen. Waa inaad cimrigiinna oo dhan xusuusnaataan maalintii aad dalkii Masar ka soo baxdeen.

[When you eat the Passover meal], the bread that you eat must not have yeast in it. You must eat this kind of bread, which will be called the bread of suffering/misery, for seven days. This is to help you to remember all during the time that you are alive that when your ancestors left Egypt, [where they were suffering because they were slaves], they left very quickly. [They did not put in yeast and wait for the dough to swell up].

4 Oo intii toddoba maalmood ah soohdimihiinna gudahooda oo dhan waa inaan khamiir lagu arag, oo allabariga aad fiidka maalinta kowaad bixisaan hilibkiisu waa inuusan habeenkii oo dhan oollin oo subaxdii gaadhin.

[During that festival], you must not have any yeast in any house in your land for seven days. Furthermore, the meat [of the animals] that you sacrifice on the evening of the first day [of the Passover Festival must be eaten during that night]; do not allow any of it to remain until the next day.

5 Idiinma bannaana inaad allabariga Iidda Kormaridda ku bixisaan irdihiinna gudahooda oo Rabbiga Ilaahiinna ahu uu idin siinayo,

“To honor Yahweh our God, you must offer the Passover sacrifice only at the place that he chooses for you [to worship him]; do not offer that sacrifice in any other town in the land that Yahweh is giving to you. Offer that sacrifice when the sun is setting, at the same time of day that your ancestors [started to] leave Egypt.

6 laakiinse meesha Rabbiga Ilaahiinna ahu uu u dooranayo inuu magiciisa dhigo waa inaad allabariga Kormaridda ku bixisaan markay fiidka tahay, oo qorraxdu dhacdo, oo ah xilligii aad Masar ka soo baxdeen.

7 Hilibka waa inaad dubtaan oo ku cuntaan meesha Rabbiga Ilaahiinna ahu uu dooranayo, oo subaxdii waa inaad noqotaan oo teendhooyinkiinna tagtaan.

Boil [the meat] and eat it at the place [of worship] that Yahweh our God chooses. The next morning, you may return to your tents.

8 Lix maalmood waa inaad cuntaan kibis aan khamiir lahayn, oo maalinta toddobaadna shir quduus ah waa inaad u qabataan Rabbiga Ilaahiinna ah, oo maalintaas waa inaydaan waxba shuqul qaban.

Each day for six days the bread that you eat must have no yeast in it. On the seventh day, you must all gather to worship Yahweh our God. [It will be a day of rest]; you must not do any work on that day.”

9 Waxaad tirsataan toddoba toddobaad, oo hadhuudhka taagan markaad manjada ku bilowdaan kolkaas waa inaad bilowdaan inaad tirsataan toddoba toddobaad.

“[Each year], from the day that you start to harvest your grain, count seven weeks.

10 Oo Iiddii Toddobaadyada ee Rabbiga Ilaahiinna ah waa inaad ugu samaysaan waxyaalaha aad ikhtiyaarkiinna gacmaha ugu bixisaan, oo taas waxaad u bixisaan sida Rabbiga Ilaahiinna ahu idiin barakeeyo.

Then, to honor Yahweh our God, celebrate the Harvest Festival. Do that by bringing to him an offering [of grain]. Yahweh has blessed you [by causing it to grow in your fields during that year]. If you had a big harvest, bring a big offering. If you had a small harvest, bring a small offering.

11 Midkiin kasta iyo wiilkiisa, iyo gabadhiisa, iyo addoonkiisa, iyo addoontiisa, iyo kii reer Laawi oo irdihiisa ku jira, iyo qariibka, iyo agoonta iyo carmalka idin dhex joogaaba waa inay ku wada farxaan Rabbiga Ilaahooda ah hortiisa taasoo ah meesha Rabbiga Ilaahooda ahu uu u dooranayo inuu magiciisa dhigo.

[Each married couple] should be joyful in the presence of Yahweh. Their children, their servants, the descendants of Levi [who are in that town], and the foreigners, orphans, and widows [who are living among you], should also be joyful. Bring those offerings to the place of worship that Yahweh will choose.

12 Oo waa inaad xusuusnaataan inaad addoommo ku ahaydeen dalkii Masar, oo waa inaad dhawrtaan oo samaysaan qaynuunnadan.

[“When you celebrate these festivals] by obeying these commands, remember that your ancestors were previously slaves in Egypt.”

13 Oo markaad wax ka soo urursataan goobihiinna hadhuudhka lagu tumo iyo macsarooyinkiinna canabka, dabadeed waa inaad dhawrtaan Iidda Waababka intii toddoba maalmood ah.

“[Each year], after you have threshed all your grain and pressed [the juice from] all your grapes, you must celebrate the Festival of [Living in Temporary] Shelters for seven days.

14 Oo midkiin kasta iyo wiilkiisa, iyo gabadhiisa, iyo addoonkiisa, iyo addoontiisa, iyo ka reer Laawi, iyo qariibka, iyo agoonta, iyo carmalka irdahooda ku jiraaba waa inay ku wada farxaan iiddiinna.

[Each married couple] along with their children, their servants, the descendants of Levi [who are in that town], and the foreigners, orphans, and widows [who are living among you], should be joyful in the presence of Yahweh.

15 Oo intii toddoba maalmood ah waa inaad iid Rabbiga Ilaahiinna ah ugu qabataan meesha Rabbigu dooranayo, maxaa yeelay, Rabbigu wuxuu idinku barakayn doonaa waxa idiin kordha oo dhan iyo shuqulka gacmihiinna oo dhan, oo dhammaantiin waxaad ahaan doontaan farax miidhan.

Honor Yahweh our God by celebrating this festival for seven days in the place that Yahweh chooses [for you to worship him]. You should all be joyful, because Yahweh will have blessed your harvest and all the other work that you have done.

16 Oo sannaddiiba saddex jeer raggiinna oo dhammu waa inay Rabbiga Ilaahiinna ah kaga hor muuqdaan meeshuu dooranayo, oo saddexdaas jeer waa Iidda Kibista-aan-khamiirka-lahayn, iyo Iidda Toddobaadyada, iyo Iidda Waababka, oo waa inaanay iyagoo fara madhan Rabbiga hortiisa ka muuqan.

“So, each year all of you Israeli men must gather [with your families] to worship Yahweh our God at the place that he will choose, [to celebrate three festivals]: The Passover Festival, the Harvest Festival, and the Festival of Living in Temporary Shelters. Each of you men must bring [LIT] an offering [for Yahweh to these festivals]

17 Nin waluba waa inuu bixiyo wixii uu awoodo sida ay tahay barakada Rabbiga Ilaahiinna ahu uu idin siiyey.

in proportion to the blessings that Yahweh has given you [during that year].”

18 Oo dalka Rabbiga Ilaahiinna ahu uu idin siinayo irdihiinna oo dhan siday qabiilooyinkiinnu yihiin u samee xaakinno iyo saraakiil, oo iyana dadka ha ugu garsooreen garsoor xaq ah.

“Appoint judges and other officials throughout your tribes, in all the towns [in the land] that Yahweh our God is giving to you. They must judge people fairly/justly.

19 Waa inaydaan garta qalloocin, oo dadkana waa inaydaan u kala eexan, oo laaluushna waa inaydaan qaadan, waayo, laaluushku wuu indhatiraa kuwa xigmadda leh, oo erayada kuwa xaqa ahna wuu qalloociyaa.

They must not judge unjustly. They must not favor one person more than another. The judges must not accept bribes, because if a judge accepts a bribe, even if he is wise and honest, it will be very difficult for him to judge fairly [IDM]; [he will do what the person who gave him the bribe wants him to do and declare that] the righteous/innocent people [must be punished].

20 Oo wixii dhammaan xaq ah waa inaad raacdaan, inaad noolaataan, oo aad dhaxashaan dalka Rabbiga Ilaahiinna ahu uu idin siinayo.

You must be completely fair and just [DOU], in order that you will enter and occupy the land that Yahweh our God is giving to you.”

21 Oo meesha allabariga ee Rabbiga Ilaahiinna ah oo aad samayn doontaan agtiisa ha ka beeran geed Asheeraah cayn kastoo uu yahay toona.

“When you make an altar to worship Yahweh our God, do not put next to it any wooden statue [that represents] the goddess Asherah.

22 Oo hana qotonsan tiir uu Rabbiga Ilaahiinna ahu neceb yahay.

And do not set up any [stone] pillar [to worship any idol, because] Yahweh hates them.”
