Deuteronomy 32
1 'Give ear, O heavens, and I speak; And thou dost hear, O earth, sayings of my mouth!
Anokilaño ravembia ry likerañeo, le hivolan-draho; Janjiño ry tane toy o entam-bavakoo.
2 Drop as rain doth My doctrine; Flow as dew doth My sayings; As storms on the tender grass, And as showers on the herb,
Ee te himiamia manahake ty fiavi’ i orañey o tarokoo, le hitsopatsopake hoe zono o rehakoo, hambañe ami’ty fimitemiteha’e amo ahetseo naho ty finiziniziha’e amo rongoñeo.
3 For the Name of Jehovah I proclaim, Ascribe ye greatness to our God!
Fa ho tseizeko ty tahina’ Iehovà, onjono ty hara’elahi’ i Andrianañaharen-tikañey.
4 The Rock! — perfect [is] His work, For all His ways [are] just; God of stedfastness, and without iniquity: Righteous and upright [is] He.
I Lamilamiy: Fiaintane o fitoloña’eo, hene marentane o lala’eo: Andrianañahare migahiñe tsy aman-tahy, vañoñe naho vantañe.
5 It hath done corruptly to Him; Their blemish is not His sons', A generation perverse and crooked!
Fa nanoa’iareo hamengohañe, toe tsy ana’e ty amy hila’ iareo, ty tariratse vìlañe naho mengoke tia.
6 To Jehovah do ye act thus, O people foolish and not wise? Is not He thy father — thy possessor? He made thee, and doth establish thee.
Izay hao ty añavaha’ areo am’ Iehovà ry dagola, ry ondaty tsi-mahilalao? tsy ie hao ty Rae’o nivily azo? Tsy ie hao ty nitsene azo, vaho nañoreñ’ azo?
7 Remember days of old — Understand the years of many generations — Ask thy father, and he doth tell thee; Thine elders, and they say to thee:
Tiahio o andro haehaeo; haraharao o taon-tariratse tsi-efao, añontaneo aman-drae’o hanoroa’e, naho aman-androanavi’o hitaroña’iareo.
8 In the Most High causing nations to inherit, In His separating sons of Adam — He setteth up the borders of the peoples By the number of the sons of Israel.
Ie zinara’ i Andindimoneñey amo rofokoo ty lova’ iareo; naho naparaita’e o ana’ i Dameo, le nefetsefere’e ty ami’ty ia’ o ana’ Israeleo.
9 For Jehovah's portion [is] His people, Jacob [is] the line of His inheritance.
Fa anjara’ Iehovà ondati’eo; Iakobe ro anjara’ lova’e.
10 He findeth him in a land — a desert, And in a void — a howling wilderness, He turneth him round — He causeth him to understand — He keepeth him as the apple of His eye.
Nifanendrek’ama’e an-diolio añe re, am-babangoañe mangoañe mangolalaik’ ao; nohoñe’e naho niatrak’aze, nambena’e hoe t’ie saintem-pihaino’e.
11 As an eagle waketh up its nest, Over its young ones fluttereth, Spreadeth its wings — taketh them, Beareth them on its pinions; —
Hoe vantio mitsobore ty traño’e, mihefahefa ambone’ o ana’eo, akopakopa’e o ela’eo, vaho rambese’e añ’ela’eo,
12 Jehovah alone doth lead him, And there is no strange god with him.
Iehovà avao ty niaolo aze, ie tsy ama‘ndrahare ila’e.
13 He maketh him ride on high places of earth, And he eateth increase of the fields, And He maketh him suck honey from a rock, And oil out of the flint of a rock;
Nampijoñe’e ambonen-kaboa’ ty tane toy, le nihinana’e ty voka’ o tetekeo; nampininihe’e tantele an-tevañe ao, naho menake am-bato-paik’ ao;
14 Butter of the herd, and milk of the flock, With fat of lambs, and rams, sons of Bashan, And he-goats, with fat of kidneys of wheat; And of the blood of the grape thou dost drink wine!
Habobon’añombe naho rononon’ose, ty safom-bik’ añondry, le ty kobatron- dia-rain-tirim-Basaneo, o ose-lahio reketse ty safom-boam-bare-bolè; aman-diom-baloboke ty ninoma’o divay mamore.
15 And Jeshurun waxeth fat, and doth kick: Thou hast been fat — thou hast been thick, Thou hast been covered. And he leaveth God who made him, And dishonoureth the Rock of his salvation.
Fe niha-vondrake t’Iesorone le nikambia; niha-vondrake irehe, niha-mateve, vaho nisometsètse; napo’e t’i Andrianañahare nitsene aze, namoea’e i Lamilamim-pandrombahañ’azey.
16 They make Him zealous with strangers, With abominations they make Him angry.
Nitrabihe’ iareo, hamarahia’e o ‘ndrahare ila’eo, nanikisiky aze an-draha tiva.
17 They sacrifice to demons — no god! Gods they have not known — New ones — from the vicinity they came; Not feared them have your fathers!
Nisoroña’ iereo amo kokolampao, amo ndrahare tsi’ieo ‘ndrahare tsy nifohi’ iareo, ‘ndrahare vaho niboak’ aniany tsy nampañeveñe an-droae’ areo.
18 The Rock that begat thee thou forgettest, And neglectest God who formeth thee.
Namoea’o ty Lamilamy nampiareñe azo, nandikofa’o t’i Andrianañahare niolakolak’ am-pitsongoañe azo.
19 And Jehovah seeth and despiseth — For the provocation of His sons and His daughters.
Ie nivazohoe’ Iehovà, le niambohoa’e, ami’ty fanigiha’ o ana-dahi’eo naho o anak’ampela’eo.
20 And He saith: I hide My face from them, I see what [is] their latter end; For a froward generation [are] they, Sons in whom is no stedfastness.
Le hoe re: Haetako am’ iereo ty tareheko, ho treako ty fimodoa’ iareo, fa tariratse mengoke, ajaja tsy atokisañe.
21 They have made Me zealous by 'no-god,' They made Me angry by their vanities; And I make them zealous by 'no-people,' By a foolish nation I make them angry.
Nampamarahy ahiko iereo, amo ‘ndrahare tsie’eo; sigi’ iareo amo samposampon-drahao ty habosehako aa le hampamarahieko ondati-tsie iereo; hampisigiheko foko mengoke.
22 For a fire hath been kindled in Mine anger, And it burneth unto Sheol — the lowest, And consumeth earth and its increase, And setteth on fire foundations of mountains. (Sheol h7585)
Afo misolebotse ty an-doakoroko ao, mamorototo pak’ an-tsikeokeom-paha-sive ao, ampangotomomohe’e ty tane toy naho o vorohota’eo, ampirehete’e o faham-bohitseo. (Sheol h7585)
23 I gather upon them evils, Mine arrows I consume upon them.
Hañoboñako hekoheko, Ho kapaiheko am’ iereo o ana-palekoo.
24 Exhausted by famine, And consumed by heat, and bitter destruction. And the teeth of beasts I send upon them, With poison of fearful things of the dust.
Ho sihe’ ty halimpoañe iereo, habotse’ ty lel-afo; naho ty harotsahañe mafaitse. Hiraheko ama’e ty famotsim-biby, ty vorehe’ o milaly an-debokeo.
25 Without bereave doth the sword, And at the inner-chambers — fear, Both youth and virgin, Suckling with man of grey hair.
Hampandala ty fibara o alafe’eo, firevendreveñañe ty añate ao songa zamane’e ty ajalahy naho ty tomoenono, ty anak’ajaja, vaho ty androanavy ama-maroi-foty.
26 I have said: I blow them away, I cause their remembrance to cease from man;
Nataoko ho nampimodoeko, vaho ho najiheko am’ondatio ty faniahiañe iareo.
27 If not — the anger of an enemy I fear, Lest their adversaries know — Lest they say, Our hand is high, And Jehovah hath not wrought all this.
Fe nimahimahiñeko ty fiforoforon-drafelahi’e, hera ho hafa hente o malaiñe iareoo, kera hanao ty hoe: Ty fità’ay ro abo, fa tsy: Iehovà ty nanao ie iaby zao.
28 For a nation lost to counsels [are] they, And there is no understanding in them.
Fifeheañe po-anatse iereo, toe ondaty po-faharendrehañe.
29 If they were wise — They deal wisely [with] this; They attend to their latter end:
Ee t’ie ho nahihitse, soa te ho naharendreke, le ho nitsikarahe’iareo ty figadoña’e.
30 How doth one pursue a thousand, And two cause a myriad to flee! If not — that their rock hath sold them, And Jehovah hath shut them up?
Akore ty hañinjafa’ ty raike ty arivo, ty hampivoratsahe’ ty roe ty aman’ale’e, naho tsy naleta’ i Lamilami’ iareoy, naho tsy Iehovà ty nanese iereo?
31 For not as our Rock [is] their rock, (And our enemies [are] judges!)
Toe tsy i Lamilami’aiy ty vato’ iareo, ndra o rafelahi’aio ro mahatsikarake izay.
32 For of the vine of Sodom their vine [is], And of the fields of Gomorrah; Their grapes [are] grapes of gall — They have bitter clusters;
Boak’ am-bahe’ i Sedome ty vahe’ iareo, boak’an-tete’ i Amorà ao; valòbok’ afero ty valòbo’ iareo, mafaitse ty angaroza’ iareo;
33 The poison of dragons [is] their wine And the fierce venom of asps.
vorem-pañaneñe ty divai’ iareo ty voren-kankàm-pandrefeala.
34 Is it not laid up with Me? Sealed among My treasures?
Tsy mihaja amako ao hao zao? he mihily an-korojiko ao?
35 Mine [are] vengeance and recompense, At the due time — doth their foot slide; For near is a day of their calamity, And haste do things prepared for them.
Ahiko o vale-fateo naho ty avake; mbe hibolatitse o fandia’ iareoo, fa antitotse ty andron-kankà’ iareo, vaho malisa ty fihelaña’ o hifetsak’ am’iereoo.
36 For Jehovah doth judge His people, And for His servants doth repent Himself. For He seeth — the going away of power, And none is restrained and left.
Iehovà ty hizaka ondati’eo le hiferenaiña’e o mpitoro’eo ie vazoho’e te ritse ty haozara’e naho tsy aman-tsehanga’e, ke ty mirohy he ty midada;
37 And He hath said, Where [are] their gods — The rock in which they trusted;
Le hanao ty hoe re: Aia o ndrahare’ iareoo, i vato niatoa’ iareoy?
38 Which the fat of their sacrifices do eat, They drink the wine of their libation! Let them arise and help you, Let it be for you a hiding-place!
Ia ty nilintseñe ty safom-pisoroña’ iareo, naho nigenoke ty divain-enga rano’e? angao hitroatse iereo hañolora’e anahareo. Apoho re ho fitsoloha’ iareo.
39 See ye, now, that I — I [am] He, And there is no god with Me: I put to death, and I keep alive; I have smitten, and I heal; And there is not from My hand a deliverer,
Inao te izaho, izaho avao ro ie, tsy ama’ ndrahare hatovoñ’ahy: izaho ty mamono, izaho ty mameloñe; mandratse iraho le mañamelañe; tsy eo ty mahasintoñe ty an-tañako.
40 For I lift up unto the heavens My hand, And have said, I live — to the age!
Aonjoko mb’andikerañe ey ty tañako manao ty hoe, veloñe nainai’e iraho.
41 If I have sharpened the brightness of My sword, And My hand doth lay hold on judgment, I turn back vengeance to Mine adversaries, And to those hating Me — I repay!
Ie sioñeko i fibarako mipelatsey, naho mandrambe zaka ty tañako; le ho valeako o rafelahikoo, vaho hondroheko o malaiñ’ Ahikoo.
42 I make drunk Mine arrows with blood, And My sword devoureth flesh, From the blood of the pierced and captive, From the head of the freemen of the enemy.
Ho mamoeko an-dio o ana-palekoo, le hamotseke nofotse ty fibarako; ty lio’ o zinamañeo naho o an-drohio; boak’ an-doha miogogo’ o mpiaolo’ i rafelahiio.
43 Sing ye nations — [with] his people, For the blood of His servants He avengeth, And vengeance He turneth back on His adversaries, And hath pardoned His land — His people.'
Ipoñafo sabo ondati’eo, ry kilakila ondaty, fa ho valea’e fate ty lio’ o mpitoro’eo, le havaha’e an-keloke o rafelahi’eo, vaho ho jebañe’e ty tane ondati’eo.
44 And Moses cometh and speaketh all the words of this song in the ears of the people, he and Hoshea son of Nun;
Nimb’eo amy zao t’i Mosè vaho hene nisaontsie’e an-tsabo an-dravembia’ ondatio i tsara zay, ie naho Iehosoa ana’ i None.
45 and Moses finisheth to speak all these words unto all Israel,
Aa ie nagado’ i Mosè i hene fitaroña’e am’ Israele rezay,
46 and saith unto them, 'Set your heart to all the words which I am testifying against you to-day, that ye command your sons to observe to do all the words of this law,
le hoe re am’ iereo: Fonga faharo añ’ arofo’ areo ao ze tsara taroñeko androany, le ampañambeno o amori’ areoo o hene enta’ ty Hake toio, hañorike ze hene tsara amy Hake ao.
47 for it [is] not a vain thing for you, for it [is] your life, and by this thing ye prolong days on the ground whither ye are passing over the Jordan to possess it.'
Ko atao’ areo ho tsara kafoake ama’ areo, amy t’ie o havelo’ areoo, le ama’e ty hahalava andro anahareo amy tane añaveloa’ areo ampitsahañe Iardeney hitavana’ areoy.
48 And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, in this self-same day, saying,
Le hoe ty nitsara’ Iehovà amy Mosè amy andro zay.
49 'Go up unto this mount Abarim, mount Nebo, which [is] in the land of Moab, which [is] on the front of Jericho, and see the land of Canaan which I am giving to the sons of Israel for a possession;
Mañambonea mb’am-bohitse Avarime mb’eo pak’ am-bohi-Nebo an-tane’ i Moabe tandrife Ieriko añe; le isaho ty tane’ Kanàne atoloko amo ana’ Israeleo ho fanañañe;
50 and die in the mount whither thou art going up, and be gathered unto thy people, as Aaron thy brother hath died in the mount Hor, and is gathered unto his people:
le mihomaha amy vohitse itroara’oy, hitontona’o am’ondati’oo, hambañe ami’ty nivetraha’ i Aharone, rahalahi’o e Hore añe vaho nifanontoñe am’ondati’eo;
51 'Because ye trespassed against me in the midst of the sons of Israel at the waters of Meribath-Kadesh, the wilderness of Zin — because ye sanctified Me not in the midst of the sons of Israel;
amy t’ie nandilatse amako añivo’ o ana’ Israeleo an-drano’ i Meribà-Kadese eo, an-dratraratra’ i Zine añe; izaho tsy navahe’o añivo’ o ana’ Israeleo.
52 but over-against thou seest the land, and thither thou dost not go in, unto the land which I am giving to the sons of Israel.'
Ho talake’o eñe i taney, fe tsy homba’o o tane atoloko amo ana’ Israeleoo.
