< Deuteronomy 7 >

1 When the LORD your God brings you into the land where you go to possess it, and casts out many nations before you—the Hittite, the Girgashite, the Amorite, the Canaanite, the Perizzite, the Hivite, and the Jebusite—seven nations greater and mightier than you;
Yommuu Waaqayyo Waaqni kee biyya ati dhaaluuf itti galaa jirtu kanatti si fidee saboota hedduu jechuunis Heetota, Girgaashota, Amoorota, Kanaʼaanota, Feerzota, Hiiwotaa fi Yebuusota jechuunis saboota isin caalaa gurguddaa fi jajjaboo torba fuula kee duraa ariʼee baasutti,
2 and when the LORD your God delivers them up before you, and you strike them, then you shall utterly destroy them. You shall make no covenant with them, nor show mercy to them.
yommuu Waaqayyo Waaqni kee dabarsee isaan siif kennee atis isaan moʼattutti, guutumaan guutuutti isaan barbadeessi. Isaan wajjin kakuu tokko illee hin seenin; garaas isaanii hin laafin.
3 You shall not make marriages with them. You shall not give your daughter to his son, nor shall you take his daughter for your son.
Isaanitti hin soddoomin; ilmaan isaaniitiif intallan kee hin kennin yookaan intallan isaanii ilmaan keetiif hin fidin;
4 For that would turn away your sons from following me, that they may serve other gods. So the LORD’s anger would be kindled against you, and he would destroy you quickly.
sababiin isaas isaan ilmaan kee na duukaa buʼuu irraa deebisanii akka isaan waaqota biraa tajaajilan godhu; dheekkamsi Waaqayyoos sitti bobaʼee dafee si balleessa.
5 But you shall deal with them like this: you shall break down their altars, dash their pillars in pieces, cut down their Asherah poles, and burn their engraved images with fire.
Wanni isin isaan gochuu qabdan kana: iddoowwan aarsaa isaanii diigaa; siidaawwan waaqeffannaa isaanii caccabsaa; utubaawwan Aasheeraa isaaniis jijjigsaa; waaqota isaaniis ibiddaan gubbaa.
6 For you are a holy people to the LORD your God. The LORD your God has chosen you to be a people for his own possession, above all peoples who are on the face of the earth.
Ati saba Waaqayyo Waaqa keetiif qulqulluu taatee dha. Waaqayyo Waaqni kee akka ati saba isaatii fi qabeenya isaa jaallatamaa taatuuf jedhee saboota lafa irra jiraatan hunda keessaa si filate.
7 The LORD did not set his love on you nor choose you, because you were more in number than any people; for you were the fewest of all peoples;
Wanni Waaqayyo isin jaallatee isin filateef waan isin saboota kaan caalaa baayʼee taataniif miti; isin saboota hunda caalaa xinnoo turtan.
8 but because the LORD loves you, and because he desires to keep the oath which he swore to your fathers, the LORD has brought you out with a mighty hand and redeemed you out of the house of bondage, from the hand of Pharaoh king of Egypt.
Garuu wanni Waaqayyo harka jabaadhaan isin baasee biyya garbummaatii fi irree Faraʼoon mooticha Gibxi jalaa isin fureef sababii isin jaallatee kakuu abbootii keessan wajjin gale sana eegeef.
9 Know therefore that the LORD your God himself is God, the faithful God, who keeps covenant and loving kindness to a thousand generations with those who love him and keep his commandments,
Kanaafuu akka Waaqayyo Waaqni kee Waaqa taʼe beeki; inni Waaqa amanamaa warra isa jaallatanii ajaja isaas eeganiif kakuu fi araara isaa hamma dhaloota kumaatti eeguu dha.
10 and repays those who hate him to their face, to destroy them. He will not be slack to him who hates him. He will repay him to his face.
Warra isa jibban garuu, balleessuuf gatii isaanii mataa isaaniitti deebisa; nama isa jibbus gatii isaa mataa isaatti deebisuudhaaf lafa irra hin harkifatu.
11 You shall therefore keep the commandments, the statutes, and the ordinances which I command you today, to do them.
Kanaafuu ati ajajawwan, qajeelchawwanii fi seerawwan ani harʼa siif kennu kanneen eegi.
12 It shall happen, because you listen to these ordinances and keep and do them, that the LORD your God will keep with you the covenant and the loving kindness which he swore to your fathers.
Yoo ati seerawwan kanneeniif xiyyeeffannaa kennitee of eeggannaadhaan duukaa buute, Waaqayyo Waaqni kee akkuma abbootii keetiif kakate sana kakuu fi araara isaa siifis ni eega.
13 He will love you, bless you, and multiply you. He will also bless the fruit of your body and the fruit of your ground, your grain and your new wine and your oil, the increase of your livestock and the young of your flock, in the land which he swore to your fathers to give you.
Inni si jaallata; si eebbisa; si baayʼisas. Biyya siif kennuuf abbootii keetiif kakuu gale keessatti ija garaa keetii, oomisha lafa keetii jechuunis midhaan, wayinii haaraa fi zayitii, jabbiiwwan loon keetii, xobbaallaawwan bushaayee keetii siif eebbisa.
14 You will be blessed above all peoples. There will not be male or female barren among you, or among your livestock.
Ati saboota kam iyyuu caalaa ni eebbifamta; dhiira yookaan dubartii kee keessaa tokko illee ijoollee hin dhabu yookaan loon kee keessaa tokko illee hin maseenu.
15 The LORD will take away from you all sickness; and he will put none of the evil diseases of Egypt, which you know, on you, but will lay them on all those who hate you.
Waaqayyo dhukkuba hunda sirraa fuudha. Inni dhukkuboota suukaneessaa ati biyya Gibxitti argite sana warra si jibbanitti fida malee sitti hin fidu.
16 You shall consume all the peoples whom the LORD your God shall deliver to you. Your eye shall not pity them. You shall not serve their gods; for that would be a snare to you.
Ati saboota Waaqayyo Waaqni kee dabarsee sitti kennu hunda balleessuu qabda. Ati isaaniif garaa hin laafin; kuni kiyyoo sitti taʼaatii waaqota isaanii hin waaqeffatin.
17 If you shall say in your heart, “These nations are more than I; how can I dispossess them?”
Ati, “Saboonni kunneen nu caalaa jajjaboo dha; nu akkamitti isaan baafna?” jettee yaadda taʼa.
18 you shall not be afraid of them. You shall remember well what the LORD your God did to Pharaoh and to all Egypt:
Garuu ati isaan hin sodaatin; waan Waaqayyo Waaqni kee Faraʼoonii fi guutummaa Gibxitti hojjete sana yaadadhu.
19 the great trials which your eyes saw, the signs, the wonders, the mighty hand, and the outstretched arm, by which the LORD your God brought you out. So shall the LORD your God do to all the peoples of whom you are afraid.
Ati qormaatawwan gurguddaa, mallattoowwanii fi dinqiiwwan, harka jabaa fi irree diriirfame kan Waaqayyo Waaqni kee ittiin si baase sana ijuma keetiin argiteerta. Waaqayyo Waaqni kee saboota ati amma sodaattu hundas akkasuma godha.
20 Moreover the LORD your God will send the hornet among them, until those who are left, and hide themselves, perish from before you.
Kana caalaa iyyuu Waaqayyo Waaqni kee hamma warri lubbuudhaan hafanii si duraa dhokatan iyyuu barbadaaʼanitti gidduu isaaniitti sonsa ni erga.
21 You shall not be scared of them; for the LORD your God is among you, a great and awesome God.
Sababii Waaqayyo Waaqni kee inni gidduu kee jiru sun Waaqa guddaa fi sodaachisaa taʼeef isaan hin sodaatin.
22 The LORD your God will cast out those nations before you little by little. You may not consume them at once, lest the animals of the field increase on you.
Waaqayyo Waaqni kee saboota sana xinnoo xinnoodhaan fuula kee duraa ni baasa; akka bineensonni bosonaa naannoo keetti hin baayʼanneef yeruma tokkotti isaan balleesuun siif hin eeyyamamu.
23 But the LORD your God will deliver them up before you, and will confuse them with a great confusion, until they are destroyed.
Waaqayyo Waaqni kee garuu hamma isaan badanitti isaan raatessuudhaan dabarsee harka keetti isaan kenna.
24 He will deliver their kings into your hand, and you shall make their name perish from under the sky. No one will be able to stand before you until you have destroyed them.
Mootota isaaniis dabarsee sitti kenna; atis maqaa isaanii samii jalaa ni balleessita. Hamma ati isaan balleessitutti namni fuula kee dura dhaabachuu dandaʼu tokko iyyuu hin jiru.
25 You shall burn the engraved images of their gods with fire. You shall not covet the silver or the gold that is on them, nor take it for yourself, lest you be snared in it; for it is an abomination to the LORD your God.
Fakkii waaqota isaanii ibiddaan gubi; meetii fi warqee isaan irra jiru hin hawwin; ofii keetiifis hin fudhatin; yoo kanaa achii inni sababii fuula Waaqayyo Waaqa keetii duratti jibbisiisaa taʼeef kiyyoo sitti taʼa.
26 You shall not bring an abomination into your house and become a devoted thing like it. You shall utterly detest it. You shall utterly abhor it; for it is a devoted thing.
Waan jibbisiisaa gara mana keetiitti hin galchin; yoo kanaa achii atis akkuma isaa badiisaaf addaan baafamta. Waan inni badiisaaf addaan baafameef ati guutumaan guutuutti isa jibbi; balfis.
