¹The priests, the Levites, [and] the whole tribe of Levi, shall have no portion nor inheritance with Israel: Jehovah's offerings by fire, and his inheritance shall they eat,

¹[Ny amin'ny ho anjaran'ny mpisorona sy ny Levita] Ny Levita mpisorona, dia ny firenen'i Levy rehetra, tsy mba hanana anjara na lova eo amin'ny Isiraely; ny fanatitra atao amin'ny afo ho an'i Jehovah sy ny anjaran'i Jehovah no ho fihinany.

²but they shall have no inheritance among their brethren: Jehovah, he is their inheritance, as he hath said unto them.

²Fa tsy hanan-dova eo amin'ny rahalahiny izy; Jehovah no lovany, araka izay nolazainy taminy.

³And this shall be the priest's due from the people, from them that sacrifice a sacrifice, whether ox, or sheep: they shall give unto the priest the shoulder, and the jawbones, and the maw.

³Ary izao no ho anjaran'ny mpisorona avy amin'ny olona, dia avy amin'izay mamono zavatra hatao fanatitra, na omby, na ondry, na osy: dia homeny ho an'ny mpisorona ny sorony sy ny takolany roa ary ny vavoniny;

⁴The firstfruits [also] of thy corn, of thy new wine, and of thine oil, and the firstfruits of the shearing of thy sheep, shalt thou give him;

⁴ary ny voaloham-bokatry ny varinao koa sy ny ranom-boalobokao sy ny diloilonao ary ny voalohan'ny volon'ondrinao no homenao azy.

⁵for Jehovah thy God hath chosen him out of all thy tribes, that he may stand to serve in the name of Jehovah, he and his sons continually.

⁵Fa izy sy ny taranany no nofidin'i Jehovah Andriamanitrao tamin'ny firenenao rehetra hitsangana hanao fanompoam-pivavahana mandrakizay amin'ny anaran'i Jehovah.

⁶And if the Levite shall come from one of thy gates out of all Israel, where he sojourneth, and shall come according to all the desire of his soul unto the place which Jehovah will choose,

⁶Ary raha misy Levita miala amin'ny tanànanao anankiray, izay nivahiniany, amin'ny Isiraely rehetra, ka mandeha araka ny fanirian'ny fony ho any amin'ny tany izay hofidin'i Jehovah,

⁷and shall serve in the name of Jehovah his God, as all his brethren the Levites that stand there before Jehovah,

⁷ka manao fanompoam-pivavahana amin'ny anaran'i Jehovah Andriamaniny, tahaka ny Levita rahalahiny rehetra, izay mitsangana eo anatrehan'i Jehovah,

⁸-- they shall have like portions to eat, besides that which he hath sold of his patrimony.

⁸dia anjara mitovy amin'ny an'ireo ihany no ho fihinany, na dia misy aza izay vidin'ny azony tamin-drainy.

⁹When thou art come into the land which Jehovah thy God giveth thee, thou shalt not learn to do according to the abominations of those nations.

⁹[Ny amin'ny mpaminany] REHEFA tonga any amin'ny tany izay omen'i Jehovah Andriamanitrao anao ianao, dia aza mianatra hanao araka ny fahavetavetana ataon'ireo firenena ireo.

¹⁰There shall not be found among you he that maketh his son or his daughter to pass through the fire, that useth divination, that useth auguries, or an enchanter, or a sorcerer,

¹⁰Aoka tsy hisy eo aminao izay mampandeha ny zananilahy na ny zananivavy hamaky ny afo, na mpanao fankatovana, na mpanandro, na mpanao sikidy, na mpanana ody,

¹¹or a charmer, or one that inquireth of a spirit of Python, or a soothsayer, or one that consulteth the dead.

¹¹na manao ho masim-bava, na mpanadina amin'ny manao azy ho tsindrian-javatra, na mpanao hatsarana, na mpanontany amin'ny maty.

¹²For every one that doeth these things is an abomination to Jehovah, and because of these abominations Jehovah thy God doth dispossess them from before thee.

¹²Fa fahavetavetana eo imason'i Jehovah izay rehetra manao izany zavatra izany, ary izany fahavetavetana izany no androahan'i Jehovah Andriamanitrao azy eo anoloanao.

¹³Thou shalt be perfect with Jehovah thy God.

¹³Aoka ho tanteraka amin'i Jehovah Andriamanitrao ianao.

¹⁴For these nations, which thou shalt dispossess, hearkened unto those that use auguries, and that use divination; but as for thee, Jehovah thy God hath not suffered thee [to do] so.

¹⁴Fa ireo firenena izay efa horoahinao ireo dia mihaino ny mpanandro sy ny mpanao fankatovana; fa ianao kosa tsy navelan'i Jehovah Andriamanitrao hanao izany.

¹⁵Jehovah thy God will raise up unto thee a prophet from the midst of thee, of thy brethren, like unto me; unto him shall ye hearken;

¹⁵Mpaminany avy eo aminao, dia avy amin'ny rahalahinao, tahaka ahy, no hatsangan'i Jehovah Andriamanitrao ho anao; izy no hohenoinareo;

¹⁶according to all that thou desiredst of Jehovah thy God at Horeb on the day of the assembly, saying, Let me not hear again the voice of Jehovah my God, neither let me see this great fire any more, that I die not.

¹⁶araka izay rehetra nangatahinao tamin'i Jehovah Andriamanitrao tao Horeba tamin'ny andro nivoriana hoe: Aoka tsy hihaino ny feon'i Jehovah Andriamanitro intsony aho, ary aoka tsy hahita izany afo lehibe izany intsony aho, fandrao maty.

¹⁷And Jehovah said unto me, They have well spoken that which they have spoken.

¹⁷Dia hoy Jehovah tamiko: Tsara ny teny izay nolazainy.

¹⁸A prophet will I raise up unto them from among their brethren, like unto thee, and will put my words in his mouth, and he shall speak unto them all that I shall command him.

¹⁸Mpaminany no hatsangako ho azy avy amin'ny rahalahiny, tahaka anao, ka hataoko ao am-bavany ny teniko, ary holazainy aminy izay rehetra handidiako azy.

¹⁹And it shall come to pass that the man who hearkeneth not unto my words which he shall speak in my name, I will require it of him.

¹⁹Ary izay rehetra tsy mihaino ny teniko, izay holazainy amin'ny anarako, dia Izaho no hitsara azy.

²⁰But the prophet who shall presume to speak a word in my name that I have not commanded him to speak, or that shall speak in the name of other gods, that prophet shall die.

²⁰Fa ny mpaminany izay sahy hilaza teny amin'ny anarako, nefa tsy nasaiko nolazainy, na izay miteny amin'ny anaran'andriamani-kafa, dia hatao maty.

²¹And if thou say in thy heart, How shall we know the word that Jehovah hath not spoken?

²¹Ary raha hoy ianao anakampo: Hataontsika ahoana no fahafantatra ny teny izay tsy nolazain'i Jehovah?Raha miteny amin'ny anaran'i Jehovah ny mpaminany, ka tsy efa ny zavatra, na tsy tanteraka, dia teny izay tsy nolazain'i Jehovah izany: tamin'ny fahasahisahiana no nilazan'ny mpaminany izany, koa aza matahotra azy.

²²When a prophet speaketh in the name of Jehovah, and the thing followeth not, nor cometh to pass, that is the word which Jehovah hath not spoken; the prophet hath spoken it presumptuously: be not afraid of him.

²²Raha miteny amin'ny anaran'i Jehovah ny mpaminany, ka tsy efa ny zavatra, na tsy tanteraka, dia teny izay tsy nolazain'i Jehovah izany: tamin'ny fahasahisahiana no nilazan'ny mpaminany izany, koa aza matahotra azy.
