ಕೀರ್ತನೆಗಳು 95
Come, sing to Yahweh; sing joyfully to the one who protects us [MET] and saves us!
We should thank him as we come before him, and sing (joyful songs/joyfully) as we praise him.
Because Yahweh is the great God, he is a great king [who rules] over all [other] gods.
He rules over the whole earth, from the deepest places/caves to the highest mountains.
The seas are his, because he made them. He is [also] the one who [SYN] formed/made the dry land.
We should come, worship, and bow down before him. We should kneel before Yahweh, the one who made us.
7 ೭ ಆತನು ನಮ್ಮ ದೇವರು; ನಾವೋ ಆತನು ಪಾಲಿಸುವ ಪ್ರಜೆಯೂ, ಆತನ ಕೈಕೆಳಗಿರುವ ಹಿಂಡೂ ಆಗಿದ್ದೇವೆ. ನೀವು ಈ ಹೊತ್ತು ಆತನ ಶಬ್ದಕ್ಕೆ ಕಿವಿಗೊಟ್ಟರೆ ಎಷ್ಟೋ ಒಳ್ಳೇಯದು.
He is our God, and we are the people whom he takes care of [MET]; like sheep [that a shepherd] takes care of. Today, listen to what Yahweh is saying to you.
8 ೮ ನಿಮ್ಮ ಹಿರಿಯರು ಅರಣ್ಯದಲ್ಲಿರುವ ಮೆರೀಬದಲ್ಲಿ, ಮಸ್ಸಾದಲ್ಲಿ ಮಾಡಿದ ದಿನದಂತೆ, ನೀವು ನಿಮ್ಮ ಹೃದಯವನ್ನು ಕಠಿಣಮಾಡಿಕೊಳ್ಳಬೇಡಿರಿ.
He says, “Do not become stubborn [IDM] like [your ancestors] did at Meribah, and like [they did] at Massah in the desert.
There your ancestors (wanted to see/tried to determine) if they could do many very evil things [without my punishing them]. Even though they had seen me perform [many] miracles, they tested whether I [would continue to be patient with them].
10 ೧೦ ನಾನು ನಲ್ವತ್ತು ವರ್ಷ ಆ ಸಂತತಿಯವರ ವಿಷಯದಲ್ಲಿ ಬೇಸರಗೊಂಡೆನು; “ಈ ಜನರು ಹೃದಯದಲ್ಲಿ ತಪ್ಪಿಹೋಗುವವರು, ನನ್ನ ಆಜ್ಞೆಗಳಿಗೆ ವಿಧೇಯರಾಗದವರು” ಎಂದು ಹೇಳಿದೆನು.
For 40 years I was angry with those people, and I said, ‘Those people say that they want to please me, but they do things that I detest. They refuse to obey my commands.’
So because I was very angry, I solemnly said/declared about them: ‘They will never enter [the land of Canaan] where I would have allowed them to rest!’”
