Deuteronomy 14
1 You are the children of the Lord your God: you are not to make cuts on your bodies or take off the hair on your brows in honour of the dead;
Zanak’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrareo ianareo, koa aza mitetika ny tenanareo, na manaratra ny eo ambonin’ ny handrinareo noho ny amin’ ny maty.
2 For you are a holy people to the Lord your God, and the Lord has taken you to be his special people out of all the nations on the face of the earth.
Fa firenena masìna ho an’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrao ianao ka voafidiny ho rakitra soa ho Azy mihoatra noho ny firenena rehetra ambonin’ ny tany.
3 No disgusting thing may be your food.
Aza mihinana izay fahavetavetana.
4 These are the beasts which you may have for food: the ox, the sheep, and the goat;
Izao no biby izay ho fihinanareo: Ny omby sy ny ondry sy ny osy
5 The hart, the gazelle, and the roe, the mountain goat and the pygarg and the antelope and the mountain sheep.
sy ny diera, ny gazela, ny kapreola, ny osi-dia, ny pygarga, ny antilopa ary ny ropikapra:
6 Any beast which has a division in the horn of its foot and whose food comes back into its mouth to be crushed again, may be used for food.
izay biby rehetra mivaky kitro, ka misaraka tsara ny kitrony sady mandinika, no ho fihinanareo.
7 But even among these, there are some which may not be used for food: such as the camel, the hare, and the coney, which are unclean to you, because, though their food comes back, the horn of their feet is not parted in two.
Nefa amin’ izay mandinika na mivaky kitro dia izao ihany kosa no tsy ho fihinanareo: Ny rameva sy ny rà bitro ary ny hyraka, satria mandinika ihany izy, fa tsy mivaky kitro; maloto aminareo izy;
8 And the pig is unclean to you, because though it has a division in the horn of its foot, its food does not come back; their flesh may not be used for food or their dead bodies touched by you.
ary ny kisoa koa, satria mivaky kitro izy, fa tsy mandinika, maloto aminareo izy; ny henan ireny tsy ho fihinanareo, ary ny fatiny tsy hokasihinareo.
9 And of the things living in the waters, you may take all those who have wings for swimming with and skins formed of thin plates.
Ary amin’ izay rehetra ao anatin’ ny rano dia izao no ho fihinanareo: izay rehetra misy vombony sy kirany no ho fihinanareo;
10 But any which have no skin-plates or wings for swimming, you may not take; they are unclean for you.
fa izay rehetra tsy misy vombony sy kirany kosa dia tsy ho fihinanareo; maloto aminareo izy.
11 All clean birds may be used for food.
Ny vorona madio rehetra no ho fihinanareo.
12 But these birds you may not take: the eagle and the gier-eagle and the ospray;
Nefa izao kosa no tsy ho fihinanareo: ny voltora sy ny gypa sy ny ankoay
13 The falcon and the kite, and birds of that sort;
ary ny papango sy ny voromahery sy ny papango mainty, samy araka ny karazany, avy
14 Every raven, and all birds of that sort;
ary ny goaika rehetra, samy araka ny karazany avy,
15 And the ostrich and the night-hawk and the sea-hawk and birds of that sort;
ary ny ostritsa sy ny tararaka sy ny vorondriaka ary ny hitsikitsika, samy araka ny karazany avy,
16 The little owl and the great owl and the water-hen;
ary ny vorondolo sy ny vorondolo lehibe sy ny ibisa
17 And the pelican and the vulture and the cormorant;
ary ny sama sy ny voltora madinika sy ny manarana
18 The stork and the heron and birds of that sort, and the hoopoe and the bat.
ary ny vano sy ny vanobe, samy araka ny karazany avy, ary ny takidara sy ny manavy.
19 Every winged thing which goes flat on the earth is unclean to you and may not be used as food.
Ary ny zava-mandady rehetra izay manana elatra dia haloto aminareo ka tsy ho fihinanareo.
20 But all clean birds you may take.
Ny zava-manana elatra izay madio no ho fihinanareo.
21 You may not have as food anything which has come to a natural death; the man from another country who is living with you may take it for food, or you may get a price for it from one of another nation; for you are a holy people to the Lord your God. The young goat is not to be cooked in its mother's milk.
Aza homana izay maty ho azy, fa omeo ho an’ ny vahiny izay ao an-tanànanao izany mba hohaniny, na amidio amin’ ny olona hafa firenena; fa firenena masìna ho an’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrao ianao. Aza mahandro zanak’ osy amin’ ny rononon-dreniny.
22 Put on one side a tenth of all the increase of your seed, produced year by year.
Aloavy tsara ny ampahafolon’ ny vokatra rehetra avy amin’ ny voa nafafinao, dia ny vokatra any an-tsaha isan-taona;
23 And make a feast before the Lord your God, in the place which is to be marked out, where his name will be for ever, of the tenth part of your grain and your wine and your oil, and the first births of your herds and your flocks; so that you may have the fear of the Lord your God in your hearts at all times.
dia aoka ho eo anatrehan’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrao eo amin’ ny tany izany hofidiny hampitoerany ny anarany no hihinananao ny ampahafolon’ ny varinao sy ny ranom-boalobokao sy ny diloilonao ary ny voalohan-teraky ny ombinao sy ny ondry aman’ osinao, mba hianaranao hatahotra an’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrao mandrakariva.
24 And if the way is so long that you are not able to take these things to the place marked out by the Lord your God for his name, when he has given you his blessing, because it is far away from you;
Fa raha lavitra loatra ny lalana halehanao ka tsy mahatondra izany zavatra izany ianao, satria lavitra anao loatra ny tany izay hofidin’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrao hampitoerany ny anarany, raha notahin’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrao ianao,
25 Then let these things be exchanged for money, and, taking the money in your hand, go to the place marked out by the Lord your God for himself;
dia hamidinao vola izany, ary hofonosinao ny vola ka ho entinao eo an-tananao hankany amin’ ny tany izay hofidin’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrao;
26 And with the money get whatever you have a desire for, oxen or sheep or wine or strong drink, whatever your soul's desire may be: and make a feast there before the Lord your God, and be glad, you and all your house;
ary ny vola dia amidio izay rehetra tian’ ny fanahinao, na omby, na ondry, na osy, na divay, na toaka, na izay zavatra hafa tian’ ny fanahinao; ary aoka ho eo anatrehan’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrao no hihinananao izany sy hifalianao mbamin’ ny ankohonanao;
27 And give a thought to the Levite who is living among you, for he has no part or heritage in the land.
ary ny Levita izay ao an-tanànanao dia aza foinao; fa tsy manana anjara na lova eo aminao izy.
28 At the end of every three years take a tenth part of all your increase for that year, and put it in store inside your walls:
Ary isan-telo taona dia alao ny ampahafolon’ ny vokatrao rehetra amin’ izany taona izany, ka ataovy ao an-tanànanao;
29 And the Levite, because he has no part or heritage in the land, and the man from a strange country, and the child who has no father, and the widow, who are living among you, will come and take food and have enough; and so the blessing of the Lord your God will be on you in everything you do.
ary dia aoka ho avy ny Levita (satria tsy mba manana anjara na lova eo aminao izy) sy ny vahiny sy ny kamboty ary ny mpitondratena izay ao an-tanànanao, dia hihinana izy ka ho voky, mba hotahin’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrao ianao amin’ ny asan-tananao rehetra izay ataonao.
