Keessa Deebii 17

1 Sangaa yookaan hoolaa fafa yookaan hirʼina kam iyyuu qabu Waaqayyo Waaqa keetiif aarsaa hin dhiʼeessin; wanni akkasii isa biratti jibbisiisaa dhaatii.

You shall not sacrifice unto the LORD your God any bullock, or sheep, wherein is blemish, or any evil thing: for that is an abomination unto the LORD your God.

2 Yoo dhiirri yookaan dubartiin magaalaawwan Waaqayyo Waaqni kee siif kennu keessaa tokko keessa gidduu kee jiraattu tokko kakuu isaa cabsuudhaan fuula Waaqayyo Waaqa keetii duratti waan hamaa hojjetee argame,

If there be found among you, within any of your gates which the LORD your God gives you, man or woman, that has wrought wickedness in the sight of the LORD your God, in transgressing his covenant,

3 yoo ajaja koo darbee waaqota ormaa waaqeffate, gad jedhee biiftuuf yookaan jiʼaaf yookaan urjiiwwan samiitiif sagadde,

And has gone and served other gods, and worshipped them, either the sun, or moon, or any of the host of heaven, which I have not commanded;

4 yoo wanni kun sitti himamee atis dhageesse, dubbicha gad qabii akka gaariitti qoradhu; yoo wanni jedhame sun dhugaa taʼee wanni jibbisiisaan akkasii Israaʼel keessatti hojjetamuun isaa mirkanaaʼe,

And it be told you, and you have heard of it, and enquired diligently, and, behold, it be true, and the thing certain, that such abomination is wrought in Israel:

5 namicha yookaan dubartii waan hamaa kana hojjette gara balbala magaalaa sanaatti geessiitii dhagaadhaan tumii ajjeesi.

Then shall you bring forth that man or that woman, which have committed that wicked thing, unto your gates, even that man or that woman, and shall stone them with stones, till they die.

6 Namni duuti isaaf malu tokko dhuga baʼumsa nama lamaa yookaan sadiitiin haa ajjeefamu; garuu dhuga baʼumsa nama tokkoo qofaan namni kam iyyuu ajjeefamuu hin qabu.

At the mouth of two witnesses, or three witnesses, shall he that is worthy of death be put to death; but at the mouth of one witness he shall not be put to death.

7 Yommuu ajjeefamus jalqabatti harki dhuga baatotaa, itti aansee immoo kan sabaa isa irra haa buʼu; ati waan hamaa of keessaa baasuu qabda.

The hands of the witnesses shall be first upon him to put him to death, and afterward the hands of all the people. So you shall put the evil away from among you.

8 Yoo dubbiiwwan murteessuuf rakkisaa taʼan mana murtii keetti dhiʼaatan jechuunis kan akka dhiiga dhangalaasuu, wal mormii seera tokkootii fi kan biraa, yookaan miidhaa dhagna irra gaʼu kan garaa garaa gidduutti wanni murtii kennuuf rakkisu yoo kaʼe, ati lafa Waaqayyo Waaqni kee filatutti geessi.

If there arise a matter too hard for you in judgment, between blood and blood, between plea and plea, and between stroke and stroke, being matters of controversy within your gates: then shall you arise, and get you up into the place which the LORD your God shall choose;

9 Gara Lewwota warra luboota taʼaniitii fi qondaaltota yeroo sana hojii irra turanii dhaqi. Waaʼee dubbii sanaa isaaniin mariʼadhu; isaanis murtii isaa sitti himu.

And you shall come unto the priests the Levites, and unto the judge that shall be in those days, and enquire; and they shall show you the sentence of judgment:

10 Atis akkuma yaada isaan siif kennan sanaatti iddoo Waaqayyo filatutti murtii kennuu qabda. Waan hunda qajeelfama isaan siif kennaniin hojjedhu.

And you shall do according to the sentence, which they of that place which the LORD shall choose shall show you; and you shall observe to do according to all that they inform you:

11 Akka seera isaan si barsiisaniittii fi akka qajeelfama isaan siif kennaniitti hojjedhu. Waan isaan sitti himan irraa mirgatti yookaan bitaatti hin gorin.

According to the sentence of the law which they shall teach you, and according to the judgment which they shall tell you, you shall do: you shall not decline from the sentence which they shall show you, to the right hand, nor to the left.

12 Namni abbaa seeraa yookaan luba Waaqayyo Waaqa kee tajaajiluuf achi dhaabatu tuffatu haa ajjeefamu. Ati waan hamaa Israaʼel keessaa baasuu qabda.

And the man that will do presumptuously, and will not hearken unto the priest that stands to minister there before the LORD your God, or unto the judge, even that man shall die: and you shall put away the evil from Israel.

13 Sabni hundis waan kana dhagaʼee ni sodaata; itti deebiʼees hin tuffatu.

And all the people shall hear, and fear, and do no more presumptuously.

14 Ati yommuu biyya Waaqayyo Waaqni kee siif kennutti galtee dhaaltuu fi biyya sana keessa qubattee, “Akkuma saboota naannoo koo jiraataniitti anis mootii of irrattan moosisa” jettutti,

When you are come unto the land which the LORD your God gives you, and shall possess it, and shall dwell therein, and shall say, I will set a king over me, like all the nations that are about me;

15 mootii Waaqayyo Waaqni kee filatu of irratti moosisi. Nama obboleessa kee Israaʼel taʼe keessaa malee nama biyya alaa of irratti hin moosisin.

You shall in any way set him king over you, whom the LORD your God shall choose: one from among your brethren shall you set king over you: you may not set a stranger over you, which is not your brother.

16 Sababii Waaqayyo, “Lammata garas hin deebitan” jedhee sitti himeef, mootichi ofii isaatii fardeen hin baayʼifatin yookaan lakkoobsa fardeenii baayʼifachuuf jedhee gara Gibxitti saba hin deebisin.

But he shall not multiply horses to himself, nor cause the people to return to Egypt, to the end that he should multiply horses: forasmuch as the LORD has said unto you, All of you shall henceforth return no more that way.

17 Akka yaadni isaa hin badneef inni niitota baayʼee fuudhuu hin qabu; meetii fi warqee baayʼisees walitti qabachuu hin qabu.

Neither shall he multiply wives to himself, that his heart turn not away: neither shall he greatly multiply to himself silver and gold.

18 Inni yommuu teessoo mootummaa isaa irra taaʼutti garagalchaa seera kanaa luboota Lewwota taʼan irraa fudhatee kitaaba maramaa irratti ofii isaatii haa barreeffatu.

And it shall be, when he sits upon the throne of his kingdom, that he shall write him a copy of this law in a book out of that which is before the priests the Levites:

19 Inni akka Waaqayyo Waaqa isaa sodaachuu baratuuf dubbii seera kanaa hundaa fi ajajawwan kanneen of eeggannaadhaan duukaa buʼuuf kitaabichi isa wajjin haa turu; innis bara jireenya isaa guutuu haa dubbisu;

And it shall be with him, and he shall read therein all the days of his life: that he may learn to fear the LORD his God, to keep all the words of this law and these statutes, to do them:

20 kunis akka inni akka waan obboloota isaa caaluutti of ilaalee seericha irraa gara mirgaatti yookaan bitaatti hin gorreef. Akkasiinis innii fi sanyiin isaa mootummaa isaa irratti Israaʼel keessatti bara dheeraadhaaf ni mooʼu.

That his heart be not lifted up above his brethren, and that he turn not aside from the commandment, to the right hand, or to the left: to the end that he may prolong his days in his kingdom, he, and his children, in the midst of Israel.
