Deotoronomia 12
1 Inao o fañè naho fepètse tsy mahay tsy hambena’areo soa an-tane atolo’ Iehovà Andrianañaharen-droae’o azo ho lova’o amy ze hene andro hiveloma’ areo an-tane atoy.
These are the statutes and the decrees that you will keep in the land that Yahweh, the God of your fathers, has given you to possess, all the days that you live on the earth.
2 Fonga ho rotsahe’ areo ze toe-pitoroña’ o rofoko ho tavane’ areoo, ze ndrahare’ iareo andengo’ o vohitse aboo, naho ankaboa’ o vohibohitseo vaho añ’alo’ ze hene hatae leñe.
You will surely destroy all the places where the nations that you will dispossess worshiped their gods, on the high mountains, on the hills, and under every green tree.
3 Ho fongore’ areo o kitreli’eo le ho pozahe’ areo o hazomanga’eo, le ho forototoe’ areo an’ afo o Aserimeo, le ho hatsafe’ areo o saresaren-drahare’eo vaho ho faohe’ areo amy toetsey ty añara’ iareo.
You must break down their altars, dash in pieces their stone pillars, and burn their Asherah poles. You must cut down the carved figures of their gods and destroy their name out of that place.
4 F’ie tsy hanoe’ areo am’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’ areo,
You will not worship Yahweh your God like that.
5 fa amy ze toetse ho joboñe’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’ areo amo fifokoa’ areo iabio, hampipoha’e ty tahina’e ho akiba’e, le zay ty hipaia’ areo aze, vaho eo ty hiheova’o.
But to the place that Yahweh your God will choose out of all your tribes to put his name, that will be the place where he lives, and it is there that you will go.
6 Eo ty hindesa’ areo o hisoroña’ areoo, naho o banabanà’ areoo, naho o engam-paha-folo’ areoo, naho o engaem-pità’ areoo, naho o nifantà’ areoo naho o enga satrin’ arofo’ areoo vaho ty valohan’ ana’ o añombe’ areoo naho o lia-rai’ areoo.
It is there that you will bring your burnt offerings, your sacrifices, your tithes, and the offerings presented by your hand, your offerings for vows, your freewill offerings, and the firstborn of your herds and flocks.
7 Eo ka ty hikamà’ areo naho o keleia’ areoo, añatrefa’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’ areo, le hirebek’ amo hene tolom-pità’ areo nitahia’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’o azoo.
It is there that you will eat before Yahweh your God and rejoice about everything that you have put your hand to, you and your households, where Yahweh your God has blessed you.
8 Tsy hanoe’ areo ka o satan-tika henaneo, t’ie songa manao ze to am-pihaino’e avao,
You will not do all the things that we are doing here today; now everyone is doing whatever is right in his own eyes;
9 amy te mboe tsy niheova’ areo i fitofàñe naho lova atolo’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’ areo azoy.
for you have not yet come to the rest, to the inheritance that Yahweh your God is giving you.
10 Ie itsaha’ areo Iardene himoneñe amy tane atolo’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’ areo anahareo ho lovay, le ie ampitofà’e amo rafelahy miariseho iabio vaho imoneña’areo am-panintsiñañe;
But when you go over the Jordan and live in the land that Yahweh your God is causing you to inherit, and he will give you rest from all your enemies round about, so that you live in safety.
11 le eo ty toetse ho joboñe’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’ areo hampimoneña’e ty tahina’e, eo ty hanesea’ areo ze handiliako anahareo; le o hisoroñañeo, naho o banabana’ areoo naho o faha-folom-bara’ areoo naho o engaem-pità’ areoo, naho ze hene engam-panta nifantà’ areo am’ Iehovà.
Then to the place where Yahweh your God will choose to cause his name to live there—there you will bring everything I command you: your burnt offerings, your sacrifices, your tithes, and the offerings presented by your hand, and all your choice offerings for vows that you will vow to Yahweh.
12 Le hirebeke añatrefa’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’ areo nahareo, ie naho o anadahi’ areoo naho o anak’ ampela’ areoo naho ondevo lahy naho ampela’ areoo naho i nte-Levy am-po-kijoli’ areoy, ie tsy aman’ anjara ndra lova ama’ areo.
You will rejoice before Yahweh your God—you, your sons, your daughters, your male servants, your female servants, and the Levites who are within your gate, because he has no portion or inheritance among you.
13 Mitomira tsy hañenga soroñe amy ze toetse isa’o añe,
Pay attention to yourself that you do not offer your burnt offerings at every place that you see;
14 te mone amy toetse ho joboñe’ Iehovà amo fifokoa’ooy, ao ty hañenga’o o fisoroña’oo, le eo ty hanoa’o ze hene lilieko.
but it is at the place that Yahweh will choose among one of your tribes that you will offer your burnt offerings, and there you will do everything that I command you.
15 Ie amy zay mahazo mandenta naho mikama ze biby amy ze hene lalam-bei’o ao rehe, ze paia’ ty tro’o amo fitahiañe natolo’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’o azoo, ie sambe ho kamae’ ty malio naho ty tsy malio, manahake t’ie tsebý ndra aiale.
However, you may kill and eat animals within all your gates, as you wish, receiving the blessing of Yahweh your God for all that he has given you; the unclean and the clean persons both may eat of it, animals such as the gazelle and the deer.
16 Fe tsy ho kamae’o ty lio’e; fa hadoa’o an-tane hoe rano.
But you will not eat the blood; you will pour it out on the earth like water.
17 Tsy ho kamae’o an-dalam-bei’o eo ka ze fahafolo’ ty ampemba’o ndra ty divai’o ndra ty mena’o ndra ty valohan’ ana’ ty mpirai-tro’o ndra ty mpirai-lia’o, ndra ze engam-panta nifantà’o, ndra ze enga satrin’ arofo’o, ndra ze engaem-pità’o.
You may not eat within your gates from the tithe of your grain, your new wine, your oil, or the firstborn of your herd or flock; and you may not eat any of the meat you sacrifice along with any of your vows that you make, nor that of your freewill offerings, nor that of the offering you present with your hand.
18 F’ie ho kamae’o añatrefa’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’o amy toetse ho joboñe’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’oy, ihe naho ty ana-dahy naho anak’ ampela’o naho ty ondevo-lahy naho ampela’o naho i nte-Levy an-tanà’oy; vaho hirebek’ añatrefa’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’o rehe amy ze hene tolom-pità’o.
Instead, you will eat them before Yahweh your God in the place that Yahweh your God will choose—you, your son, your daughter, your male servant, your female servant, and the Levite who is within your gates; you will rejoice before Yahweh your God about everything to which you put your hand.
19 Mitomira tsy haforintse’o i nte-Leviy, te ihe mbe veloñe an-tane atoy.
Pay attention to yourself so that you do not forsake the Levite as long as you live on your land.
20 Aa ie ampigadagadañe’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’o ty tane’o amy nitsarà’e ama’oy, le hanao ty hoe rehe: Hihinan-kena raho, aa kanao hasijim-bata’o, le mete mikama hena rehe, ze hadrao’o iaby.
When Yahweh your God enlarges your borders, as he has promised you, and you say, 'I will eat flesh,' because of your desire to eat meat, you may eat meat, as your soul desires.
21 Aa ie lavitse azo i toetse jinobo’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’o hampipoha’e i tahina’eiy, le handenta amo mpirai-tro’oo rehe naho amo mpirai-lia’o natolo’ Iehovà azoo amy nandiliako azoy, le hikama an-tanà’o ao ze satrie’ ty tro’o,
If the place that Yahweh your God chooses to put his name is too far from you, then you will kill some of your herd and your flock that Yahweh has given you, as I have commanded you; you may eat within your gates, as your soul desires.
22 manahake ty fikamañe o tsebý naho o aiàleo ty hikama’o aze; le songa mete ikama’ ty malio naho ty tsy malio.
Like the gazelle and the deer are eaten, so you will eat of it; the unclean and the clean persons may eat of it alike.
23 Fe mifoneña tsy hikama ty lio’e: fa amy lio’ey ty havelo’e, le tsy hatrao’o fikama ami’ty hena i haveloñey.
Only be sure that you do not consume the blood, for the blood is the life; you will not eat the life with the meat.
24 Tsy ho kamae’o zay fa hadoa’o an-tane eo hoe rano.
You will not eat it; you will pour it out on the earth like water.
25 Tsy hikama’o, soa te ho tahie’e rehe naho o ana’o manonjohy azoo ie manao ty fahiti’e am-pivazohoa’ Iehovà.
You will not eat it, so that it may go well with you, and with your children after you, when you will do what is right in the eyes of Yahweh.
26 Fe o raha ama’o mete ho navì’oo naho ze nifantà’o ro hendese’o mb’amy toetse ho joboñe’ Iehovày mb’eo.
But the things that belong to Yahweh that you have and the offerings for your vows—you will take these and go to the place that Yahweh chooses.
27 Le hengae’o i hisoroña’oy, ty hena’e naho ty lio’e, amy kitreli’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’oy, le hadoa’o amy kitreli’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’oy ty lion’ enga’o vaho ho kamae’o ty hena’e.
There you will offer your burnt offerings, the meat and the blood, on the altar of Yahweh your God; the blood of your sacrifices will be poured out on the altar of Yahweh your God, and you will eat the flesh.
28 Ambeno naho janjiño o tsara iaby lilieko azoo, soa t’ie hiraorao naho o ana’o handimbe azo kitro añ’afe’eo; ano ty soa naho ty hiti’e am-pivazohoa’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’o.
Observe and listen to all these words that I command you, that it may go well with you and with your children after you forever, when you do what is good and right in the eyes of Yahweh your God.
29 Aa ie aitoa’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’o aolo’o o fifeheañe handenà’o ho tavane’oo naho limbeza’o vaho fa mimoneñ’ an-tane’ iareo ao,
When Yahweh your God cuts off the nations from before you, when you go in to dispossess them, and you dispossess them, and live in their land,
30 le mitaoa tsy ho tra-pandrike ami’ty fitsikombea’o iareo, ie mongoreñe aolo’o eo, le ko añontanea’o o ndrahare’ iareoo ami’ty hoe, Aa vaho akore ty fitoroña’ ondaty retìa o ndrahare’ iareoo? hanoeko ka.
pay attention to yourself that you are not trapped into following them, after they are destroyed from before you—trapped into investigating their gods, into asking, 'How do these nations worship their gods? I will do the same.'
31 Ko manao zay am’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’o, amy te ze atao hativàñe am’ Iehovà, o raha vata’e heje’eo le fonga nanoe’ iereo amo ndrahare’ iareoo mbore sinodo’ iareo añ’afo ao amo ndrahare’eo o ana-dahi’eo naho o anak’ampela’eo.
You must not worship Yahweh your God in that way, for everything that is an abomination to Yahweh, things that he hates—they have done these with their gods; they even burn their sons and their daughters in fire for their gods.
32 Aa le ambeno naho oriho ze hene andiliako anahareo: ko anovoña’o vaho ko añafaha’o.
Whatever I command you, observe it. Do not add to it or take away from it.
