Cuntada Daahirka Ah Iyo Midda Nijaasta Ah

14 Idinku waxaad tihiin Rabbiga Ilaahiinna ah carruurtiisii, haddaba qof dhintay aawadiis jidhkiinna ha u goynina, oo indhihiinna dhexdoodana ha u xiirina. Waayo, waxaad Rabbiga Ilaahiinna ah u tihiin dad quduus ah, oo Rabbigu wuxuu idiin doortay inaad ahaataan dad hanti isaga uga ah dadyowga dhulka jooga oo dhan.

Waa inaydaan cunin innaba wax karaahiyo ah. Kuwanu waa xayawaanka aad hilibkooda cunaysaan, oo waa lo'da, iyo idaha, iyo riyaha, iyo deerada, iyo cawsha, iyo dibtaagta, iyo garannuugta, iyo goodirka, iyo biciidka, iyo adhidibadeedka. Xayawaan kasta oo raafkiisu kala jeexan yahay, oo calyanaqsiga raamsado oo xayawaanka ka mid ah kaas waa inaad cuntaan. Habase yeeshee kuwa caynkan ah oo calyanaqsiga raamsado oo raafka jeexan leh waa inaydaan cunin, kuwaasoo ah geela iyo bakaylaha iyo walada, maxaa yeelay, calyanaqsiga way raamsadaan laakiinse raafkoodu ma kala jeexna, oo iyagu waa idinka nijaas, oo doofaarkana ha cunina, maxaa yeelay, isaga raafkiisu waa kala jeexan yahay, calyanaqsigase ma raamsado, sidaas daraaddeed waa idinka nijaas, oo kuwaas hilibkooda waa inaydaan cunin, bakhtigoodana waa inaydaan taaban.

Waxa biyaha ku dhex jira oo dhan kuwan ka cuna: wax alla wixii baalal iyo qolfo leh cuna, 10 laakiinse wax alla wixii aan baalal iyo qolfo lahayn waa inaydaan cunin, maxaa yeelay, waa idinka nijaas.

11 Haadda daahirka ah oo dhan waad cuni kartaan. 12 Laakiinse ha cunina haadda caynkan ah: baqalyada, iyo babawga, iyo saratoosiyaha, 13 iyo xuunshada, iyo shimbirlaayaha, iyo faragooysta caynkeeda, 14 iyo cayn kasta oo tuke ah, 15 iyo gorayada, iyo aboodiga, iyo shimbirbadeedda, iyo cayn kasta oo haadka adag ah, 16 iyo guumaysta yar, iyo guumaysta weyn, iyo guumaysgeesaleyda, 17 iyo cantalyaaga, iyo gorgorka, iyo xeebajoogta, 18 iyo xuurta, iyo haadbiyoodda iyo caynteeda, iyo ceelaljoogta, iyo fiidmeerta. 19 Oo wax baalal leh oo gurguurta oo dhammu waa idinka nijaas, oo iyaga waa inaan la cunin. 20 Laakiinse haadda daahirka ah oo dhan waad cuni kartaan.

21 Oo wax alla wixii iska dhinta waa inaydaan cunin, laakiinse shisheeyihii irdihiinna ku jira waad siin kartaan isagu ha cunee, amase ajnabiga waad ka iibsan karaysaan, waayo, waxaad Rabbiga Ilaahiinna ah u tihiin dad quduus ah. Oo waxar waa inaydaan ku karsan caanihii hooyadeed.

22 Oo waa inaad toban meelood meel ka bixisaa midhaha abuurkaaga oo ah waxa sannad kasta beerta kaaga baxa oo dhan. 23 Oo Rabbiga Ilaahaaga ah meesha uu u dooranayo inuu magiciisa dhigo hortiisa waa inaad ku cuntaa meel tobnaadka hadhuudhkaaga, iyo kan khamrigaaga, iyo kan saliiddaada, iyo curadyada lo'daada iyo kuwa adhigaaga, inaad barato inaad Rabbiga Ilaahaaga ah ka cabsato had iyo goorba. 24 Oo haddii jidku kugu dheer yahay, oo aad u qaadi kari weydo, meesha kaa fog aawadeed oo uu Rabbiga Ilaahaaga ahu u dooranayo inuu magiciisa dhigo, markii Rabbiga Ilaahaaga ahu ku barakeeyo, 25 markaas waa inaad lacag u beddeshaa, oo aad lacagta gacanta ku qabsataa, oo markaas waa inaad tagtaa meesha Rabbiga Ilaahaaga ahu dooranayo, 26 oo markaas waxaad lacagta ku soo iibsataa wax alla wixii naftaadu doonayso oo ah dibi, ama ido, ama khamri, ama wax lagu sakhraamo, ama wax alla wixii nafsaddaadu ku weyddiisato, oo waxaad ku cuntaa Rabbiga Ilaahaaga ah hortiisa, oo waa inaad adiga iyo reerkaaguba faraxdaan. 27 Oo waa inaadan dayrin kan reer Laawi oo irdahaaga ku jira, maxaa yeelay, isagu qayb iyo dhaxal midna idinlama laha.

28 Oo saddex sannadood oo kasta markay dhammaadaanba waa inaad soo bixisaa meeltobnaadka waxa sannaddaas kuu baxay, oo waxaad ku kaydsataa irdahaaga gudahooda. 29 Oo markaas waxaa iman oo ka cuni oo ka dhergi doona kan reer Laawi, waayo, isagu idinlama laha qayb iyo dhaxal toona, iyo qariibka, iyo agoonta, iyo carmalka inuu Rabbiga Ilaahaaga ahu kugu barakeeyo shuqulka aad gacantaada ku qabato oo dhan.

Clean and Unclean Food(A)

14 You are the children(B) of the Lord your God. Do not cut yourselves or shave the front of your heads for the dead, for you are a people holy(C) to the Lord your God.(D) Out of all the peoples on the face of the earth, the Lord has chosen you to be his treasured possession.(E)

Do not eat any detestable thing.(F) These are the animals you may eat:(G) the ox, the sheep, the goat,(H) the deer,(I) the gazelle, the roe deer, the wild goat,(J) the ibex, the antelope and the mountain sheep.[a] You may eat any animal that has a divided hoof and that chews the cud. However, of those that chew the cud or that have a divided hoof you may not eat the camel, the rabbit or the hyrax. Although they chew the cud, they do not have a divided hoof; they are ceremonially unclean for you. The pig is also unclean; although it has a divided hoof, it does not chew the cud. You are not to eat their meat or touch their carcasses.(K)

Of all the creatures living in the water, you may eat any that has fins and scales. 10 But anything that does not have fins and scales you may not eat; for you it is unclean.

11 You may eat any clean bird. 12 But these you may not eat: the eagle, the vulture, the black vulture, 13 the red kite, the black kite, any kind(L) of falcon,(M) 14 any kind of raven,(N) 15 the horned owl, the screech owl, the gull, any kind of hawk, 16 the little owl, the great owl, the white owl, 17 the desert owl,(O) the osprey, the cormorant, 18 the stork, any kind of heron, the hoopoe and the bat.

19 All flying insects are unclean to you; do not eat them. 20 But any winged creature that is clean you may eat.(P)

21 Do not eat anything you find already dead.(Q) You may give it to the foreigner residing in any of your towns, and they may eat it, or you may sell it to any other foreigner. But you are a people holy to the Lord your God.(R)

Do not cook a young goat in its mother’s milk.(S)

Tithes

22 Be sure to set aside a tenth(T) of all that your fields produce each year. 23 Eat(U) the tithe of your grain, new wine(V) and olive oil, and the firstborn of your herds and flocks in the presence of the Lord your God at the place he will choose as a dwelling for his Name,(W) so that you may learn(X) to revere(Y) the Lord your God always. 24 But if that place is too distant and you have been blessed by the Lord your God and cannot carry your tithe (because the place where the Lord will choose to put his Name is so far away), 25 then exchange(Z) your tithe for silver, and take the silver with you and go to the place the Lord your God will choose. 26 Use the silver to buy whatever you like: cattle, sheep, wine or other fermented drink,(AA) or anything you wish. Then you and your household shall eat there in the presence of the Lord your God and rejoice.(AB) 27 And do not neglect the Levites(AC) living in your towns, for they have no allotment or inheritance of their own.(AD)

28 At the end of every three years, bring all the tithes(AE) of that year’s produce and store it in your towns,(AF) 29 so that the Levites (who have no allotment(AG) or inheritance(AH) of their own) and the foreigners,(AI) the fatherless and the widows who live in your towns may come and eat and be satisfied,(AJ) and so that the Lord your God may bless(AK) you in all the work of your hands.

Footnotes

  1. Deuteronomy 14:5 The precise identification of some of the birds and animals in this chapter is uncertain.

14 Ye are the children of the Lord your God: ye shall not cut yourselves, nor make any baldness between your eyes for the dead.

For thou art an holy people unto the Lord thy God, and the Lord hath chosen thee to be a peculiar people unto himself, above all the nations that are upon the earth.

Thou shalt not eat any abominable thing.

These are the beasts which ye shall eat: the ox, the sheep, and the goat,

The hart, and the roebuck, and the fallow deer, and the wild goat, and the pygarg, and the wild ox, and the chamois.

And every beast that parteth the hoof, and cleaveth the cleft into two claws, and cheweth the cud among the beasts, that ye shall eat.

Nevertheless these ye shall not eat of them that chew the cud, or of them that divide the cloven hoof; as the camel, and the hare, and the coney: for they chew the cud, but divide not the hoof; therefore they are unclean unto you.

And the swine, because it divideth the hoof, yet cheweth not the cud, it is unclean unto you: ye shall not eat of their flesh, nor touch their dead carcase.

These ye shall eat of all that are in the waters: all that have fins and scales shall ye eat:

10 And whatsoever hath not fins and scales ye may not eat; it is unclean unto you.

11 Of all clean birds ye shall eat.

12 But these are they of which ye shall not eat: the eagle, and the ossifrage, and the ospray,

13 And the glede, and the kite, and the vulture after his kind,

14 And every raven after his kind,

15 And the owl, and the night hawk, and the cuckow, and the hawk after his kind,

16 The little owl, and the great owl, and the swan,

17 And the pelican, and the gier eagle, and the cormorant,

18 And the stork, and the heron after her kind, and the lapwing, and the bat.

19 And every creeping thing that flieth is unclean unto you: they shall not be eaten.

20 But of all clean fowls ye may eat.

21 Ye shall not eat of anything that dieth of itself: thou shalt give it unto the stranger that is in thy gates, that he may eat it; or thou mayest sell it unto an alien: for thou art an holy people unto the Lord thy God. Thou shalt not seethe a kid in his mother's milk.

22 Thou shalt truly tithe all the increase of thy seed, that the field bringeth forth year by year.

23 And thou shalt eat before the Lord thy God, in the place which he shall choose to place his name there, the tithe of thy corn, of thy wine, and of thine oil, and the firstlings of thy herds and of thy flocks; that thou mayest learn to fear the Lord thy God always.

24 And if the way be too long for thee, so that thou art not able to carry it; or if the place be too far from thee, which the Lord thy God shall choose to set his name there, when the Lord thy God hath blessed thee:

25 Then shalt thou turn it into money, and bind up the money in thine hand, and shalt go unto the place which the Lord thy God shall choose:

26 And thou shalt bestow that money for whatsoever thy soul lusteth after, for oxen, or for sheep, or for wine, or for strong drink, or for whatsoever thy soul desireth: and thou shalt eat there before the Lord thy God, and thou shalt rejoice, thou, and thine household,

27 And the Levite that is within thy gates; thou shalt not forsake him; for he hath no part nor inheritance with thee.

28 At the end of three years thou shalt bring forth all the tithe of thine increase the same year, and shalt lay it up within thy gates:

29 And the Levite, (because he hath no part nor inheritance with thee,) and the stranger, and the fatherless, and the widow, which are within thy gates, shall come, and shall eat and be satisfied; that the Lord thy God may bless thee in all the work of thine hand which thou doest.
