< Deuteronomy 32 >
1 Give ear, O heavens, and I will speak; hear, O earth, the words of my mouth.
Yaa samiiwwan, dhagaʼaa; ani nan dubbadha; yaa lafa, atis dubbii afaan kootii dhagaʼi.
2 Let my teaching fall like rain and my speech settle like dew, like gentle rain on new grass, like showers on tender plants.
Barsiisni koo akka bokkaa haa roobu; dubbiin koos akka fixeensaa gad haa coccophu; marga irratti akka tiifuu, biqiltuu corqaa irrattis akka bokkaa guddaa haa roobu.
3 For I will proclaim the name of the LORD. Ascribe greatness to our God!
Ani maqaa Waaqayyoo nan labsa. Guddina Waaqa keenyaa jajadhaa!
4 He is the Rock, His work is perfect; all His ways are just. A God of faithfulness without injustice, righteous and upright is He.
Inni Kattaa dha; hojiin isaa mudaa hin qabu; daandiiwwan isaa hundinuus qajeelaa dha. Inni Waaqa amanamaa hin dogoggorre, tolaa fi qajeelaa dha.
5 His people have acted corruptly toward Him; the spot on them is not that of His children, but of a perverse and crooked generation.
Isaan hammina isatti hojjetaniiru; siʼachi isaan sababii qaanii isaaniitiif ijoollee isaa miti; isaan dhaloota jalʼaa fi micciiramaa dha.
6 Is this how you repay the LORD, O foolish and senseless people? Is He not your Father and Creator? Has He not made you and established you?
Yaa saba gowwaa, kan ogummaa hin qabne, ati akkasitti Waaqayyoof deebii kennitaa? Inni Abbaa kee, Uumaa kee, kan si hojjetee fi si tolche mitii?
7 Remember the days of old; consider the years long past. Ask your father, and he will tell you, your elders, and they will inform you.
Baroota durii yaadadhu; dhaloota darbe illee qalbeeffadhu. Inni siif ibsaatii abbaa kee gaafadhu; maanguddoota kees gaafadhu; isaan sitti himuutii.
8 When the Most High gave the nations their inheritance, when He divided the sons of man, He set the boundaries of the peoples according to the number of the sons of God.
Waaqni Waan Hundaa Olii yommuu sabootaaf dhaala isaaniif kennetti, yommuu sanyii namaas gargar qoqoodetti, akkuma baayʼina ilmaan Israaʼelitti namootaaf daarii dhaabe.
9 But the LORD’s portion is His people, Jacob His allotted inheritance.
Qoodni Waaqayyoo saba isaa ti; Yaaqoob immoo dhaala dhuunfaa isaa ti.
10 He found him in a desert land, in a barren, howling wilderness; He surrounded him, He instructed him, He guarded him as the apple of His eye.
Inni lafa gammoojjii, lafa onaatii fi gammoojjii nama gubu keessatti isa argate. Inni gaachana taʼeefii isa eege; akka qaroo ija isaattis isa eege;
11 As an eagle stirs up its nest and hovers over its young, He spread His wings to catch them and carried them on His pinions.
akkuma risaan mana ishee diigdee ilmaan ishee irra qoochoo qabdu, akkuma qoochoo ishee balʼiftee ol isaan fudhattu, akkuma qoochoo isheetiinis isaan baattu sana,
12 The LORD alone led him, and no foreign god was with him.
Waaqayyo qofatu isa geggeesse; waaqni ormaa tokko iyyuu isa wajjin hin turre.
13 He made him ride on the heights of the land and fed him the produce of the field. He nourished him with honey from the rock and oil from the flinty crag,
Inni lafa ol kaʼaa irra isa burraaqsise; midhaan lafa qotiisaa isa soore. Kattaa keessaa damma isa nyaachise; dhagaa gurraacha keessaa immoo zayitii kenneef;
14 with curds from the herd and milk from the flock, with the fat of lambs, with rams from Bashan, and goats, with the choicest grains of wheat. From the juice of the finest grapes you drank the wine.
dhadhaa fi aannan saawaanii fi bushaayee, xobbaallaawwanii fi reʼoota cooman, korbeeyyii hoolaa filatamoo Baashaan, ija qamadii gaariis isa soore. Ati cuunfaa dhiiga wayinii qulqulluus ni dhugde.
15 But Jeshurun grew fat and kicked— becoming fat, bloated, and gorged. He abandoned the God who made him and scorned the Rock of his salvation.
Yishuruun ni gabbate; ni dhiite; nyaatee quufe; ni ulfaate; ni cululuqe. Waaqa isa uume ni dhiise; Kattaa Fayyisaa isaa taʼes ni tuffate.
16 They provoked His jealousy with foreign gods; they enraged Him with abominations.
Isaan waaqota ormaatiin isa hinaafsisan; waaqota jibbisiisoo isaaniitiinis isa dheekkamsiisan.
17 They sacrificed to demons, not to God, to gods they had not known, to newly arrived gods, which your fathers did not fear.
Isaan hafuurota hamoo Waaqa hin taʼiniif, waaqota hin beekiniif, waaqota reefuu dhufaniif, waaqota abbootiin keessan hin sodaatiiniif aarsaa dhiʼeessan.
18 You ignored the Rock who brought you forth; you forgot the God who gave you birth.
Ati Kattaa si dhalche gante; Waaqa si uume irraanfatte.
19 When the LORD saw this, He rejected them, provoked to anger by His sons and daughters.
Waaqayyo waan kana argee isaan tuffate; inni ilmaanii fi intallan ofii isaatti aareeraatii.
20 He said: “I will hide My face from them; I will see what will be their end. For they are a perverse generation— children of unfaithfulness.
Innis, “Ani fuula koo isaan duraa nan dhokfadha; dhuma isaaniis nan arga” jedhe; isaan dhaloota jalʼaa, ijoollee hin amanamneedhaatii.
21 They have provoked My jealousy by that which is not God; they have enraged Me with their worthless idols. So I will make them jealous by those who are not a people; I will make them angry by a nation without understanding.
Isaan waan Waaqa hin taʼiniin na hinaafsisan; waaqota tolfamoo isaanii kanneen faayidaa hin qabneenis na aarsan. Anis warra saba hin taʼiniin akka isaan hinaafan nan godha; saba hubannaa hin qabneenis isaan nan aarsa.
22 For a fire has been kindled by My anger, and it burns to the depths of Sheol; it consumes the earth and its produce, and scorches the foundations of the mountains. (Sheol )
Dheekkamsa kootiin ibiddi qabsiifameeraatii; innis hamma siiʼoolitti gad dhidhimee ni bobaʼa. Lafaa fi waan isheen baaftu ni nyaata; hundee tulluuwwaniitti illee ibidda qabsiisa. (Sheol )
23 I will heap disasters upon them; I will spend My arrows against them.
“Ani waan hamaa isaan irra nan tuula; xiyya koos isaanitti nan fixadha.
24 They will be wasted from hunger and ravaged by pestilence and bitter plague; I will send the fangs of wild beasts against them, with the venom of vipers that slither in the dust.
Beela hamaa, golfaa nyaatee nama fixuu fi dhaʼicha isaanitti nan erga; ilkaan bineensaa qaramaa isaa, hadhaa buutii lafa irra lootuus isaanitti nan erga.
25 Outside, the sword will take their children, and inside, terror will strike the young man and the young woman, the infant and the gray-haired man.
Karaa guddaa irratti goraadeen warra ijoollee hin qabne isaan godha; mana isaaniitti sodaatu moʼa. Dargaggoonnii fi dargaggeettiiwwan, daaʼimmanii fi maanguddoonni ni dhumu.
26 I would have said that I would cut them to pieces and blot out their memory from mankind,
Anis isaan nan bittinneessa; yaadannoo isaaniis sanyii namaa keessaa nan balleessa.
27 if I had not dreaded the taunt of the enemy, lest their adversaries misunderstand and say: ‘Our own hand has prevailed; it was not the LORD who did all this.’”
Garuu akka diinonni isaanii of tuulanii, ‘Harka keenyatu moʼate malee, Waaqayyo waan kana hunda hin goone’ hin jenne, ani dhaadannoo diinaa sodaadheera.”
28 Israel is a nation devoid of counsel, with no understanding among them.
Isaan saba qalbii hin qabne, kan hubannaa tokko illee hin qabnee dha.
29 If only they were wise, they would understand it; they would comprehend their fate.
Isaan utuu ogeeyyii taʼanii waan kana hubatanii silaa dhuma isaanii ni beeku turan!
30 How could one man pursue a thousand, or two put ten thousand to flight, unless their Rock had sold them, unless the LORD had given them up?
Yoo Kattaan isaanii isaan gurgure malee, yoo Waaqayyo dabarsee isaan kenne malee, akkamitti namni tokko nama kuma tokko yookaan namni lama nama kuma kudhan gugsa?
31 For their rock is not like our Rock, even our enemies concede.
Kattaan isaanii akka kattaa keenyaa miti; kana immoo diinonni keenya iyyuu hin ganan.
32 But their vine is from the vine of Sodom and from the fields of Gomorrah. Their grapes are poisonous; their clusters are bitter.
Wayiniin isaanii wayinii Sodoomiitii fi lafa qotiisaa Gomoraa irraa dhufa. Iji wayinii isaanii summiidhaan, hurbuun isaaniis waan hadhaaʼuun guutameera.
33 Their wine is the venom of serpents, the deadly poison of cobras.
Wayiniin isaanii hadhaa bofaa, summii bofa hadhaan isaa nama ajjeesuu ti.
34 “Have I not stored up these things, sealed up within My vaults?
“Kun waan na biratti eegame, kan galmee koo keessattis chaappaadhaan cufame mitii?
35 Vengeance is Mine; I will repay. In due time their foot will slip; for their day of disaster is near, and their doom is coming quickly.”
Haaloo baasuun kan koo ti; ani gatii nan deebisa. Yeroo isaatti miilli isaanii ni mucucaata; guyyaan badiisa isaanii dhiʼaateera; badiisni isaaniis isaanitti ariifateera.”
36 For the LORD will vindicate His people and have compassion on His servants when He sees that their strength is gone and no one remains, slave or free.
Waaqayyo yommuu akka isaan humna dhaban, akka garbichis taʼu namni birmaduun tokko iyyuu hin hafne argutti, saba isaatiif ni murteessa; tajaajiltoota isaatiifis garaa laafa.
37 He will say: “Where are their gods, the rock in which they took refuge,
Innis akkana jedha: “Kattaan isaan itti daʼatan, waaqonni tolfamoon isaanii amma eessa jiru?
38 which ate the fat of their sacrifices and drank the wine of their drink offerings? Let them rise up and help you; let them give you shelter!
Waaqonni cooma qalma isaanii nyaatan, kanneen dhibaayyuu daadhii wayinii isaanii dhuganis eessa jiru? Mee kaʼanii isaan haa gargaaran! Mee daʼannoo haa kennaniif!
39 See now that I am He; there is no God besides Me. I bring death and I give life; I wound and I heal, and there is no one who can deliver from My hand.
“Akka ani mataan koo Isa taʼe beekaa! Ana malee Waaqni biraa hin jiru. Ani nan ajjeesa; nan jiraachisas; nan madeessa; nan fayyisas; namni harka kootii baasuu dandaʼu tokko iyyuu hin jiru.
40 For I lift up My hand to heaven and declare: As surely as I live forever,
Ani dhugumaan bara baraan jiraataadhaatii harka koo samiitti ol qabee nan kakadha;
41 when I sharpen My flashing sword, and My hand grasps it in judgment, I will take vengeance on My adversaries and repay those who hate Me.
ani yommuun goraadee koo calaqqisaa qaradhee harki koo murtiidhaaf isa qabatutti, ani diinota koo haaloo nan baʼa; warra na jibbaniif illee waan isaaniif malu nan kenna.
42 I will make My arrows drunk with blood, while My sword devours flesh— the blood of the slain and captives, the heads of the enemy leaders.”
Yommuu goraadeen koo foon nyaatutti, ani akka xiyyi koo dhiigaan machaaʼu nan godha; dhiigni sunis dhiiga warra qalamaniitii fi boojiʼamanii kan mataa hooggantoota diinaa ti.”
43 Rejoice, O heavens, with Him, and let all God’s angels worship Him. Rejoice, O nations, with His people; for He will avenge the blood of His children. He will take vengeance on His adversaries and repay those who hate Him; He will cleanse His land and His people.
Sababii inni haaloo dhiiga tajaajiltoota isaa baʼuuf, yaa sabootaa, namoota isaa wajjin gammadaa. Inni diinota isaa haaloo baʼa; biyyaa fi saba isaatiif araara ni buusa.
44 Then Moses came with Joshua son of Nun and recited all the words of this song in the hearing of the people.
Museenis Iyyaasuu ilma Nuuni wajjin dhufee dubbiiwwan faarfannaa kana hunda namoota dhageessise.
45 When Moses had finished reciting all these words to all Israel,
Innis yommuu dubbiiwwan kanneen hunda Israaʼeloota hundatti dubbatee fixetti,
46 he said to them, “Take to heart all these words I testify among you today, so that you may command your children to carefully follow all the words of this law.
akkana isaaniin jedhe; “Akka isaan dubbiiwwan seera kanaa hunda of eeggannaadhaan eeganiif akka isin ijoollee keessan ajajjan, dubbiiwwan ani harʼa ifa baasee isinitti himu hunda qalbiitti qabadhaa.
47 For they are not idle words to you, because they are your life, and by them you will live long in the land that you are crossing the Jordan to possess.”
Isaan isiniif jireenya malee dubbii faayidaa hin qabne miti. Dubbiiwwan kanaan biyya laga Yordaanos ceetanii dhaaltan keessa bara dheeraa ni jiraattu.”
48 On that same day the LORD said to Moses,
Gaafasuma Waaqayyo akkana jedhee Museetti hime;
49 “Go up into the Abarim Range to Mount Nebo, in the land of Moab across from Jericho, and view the land of Canaan, which I am giving to the Israelites as their own possession.
“Biyya Moʼaab kan fuullee Yerikoo jiru, tulluuwwan Abaariim keessa tulluu Nebootti ol baʼiitii biyya Kanaʼaan, biyya ani Israaʼelootaaf dhaala godhee kennu fuulleetti ilaali.
50 And there on the mountain that you climb, you will die and be gathered to your people, just as your brother Aaron died on Mount Hor and was gathered to his people.
Akkuma obboleessi kee Aroon tulluu Hoori irratti duʼee gara abbootii isaatti walitti qabame sana, atis tulluu yaabbattu sana irratti ni duuta; gara abbootii keetiittis walitti qabamta.
51 For at the waters of Meribah-kadesh in the Wilderness of Zin, both of you broke faith with Me among the Israelites by failing to treat Me as holy in their presence.
Kunis waan isin lamaanuu Gammoojjii Siin, Qaadesh keessatti bishaan Mariibaa biratti fuula Israaʼelootaa duratti na amanuu diddanii fi sababii Israaʼeloota gidduutti qulqullummaa koo hin eeginiif.
52 Although you shall see from a distance the land that I am giving the Israelites, you shall not enter it.”
Kanaafuu ati fagootti argita malee biyya ani Israaʼelootaaf kennu sanatti hin galtu.”
