1 Seenaa 16
1 Isaanis taabota Waaqaa fidanii dunkaana Daawit dhaabeef keessa ni kaaʼan; aarsaa gubamuu fi aarsaa nagaa fuula Waaqaa duratti ni dhiʼeessan.
They brought the Ark of God and placed it in the tent that David had prepared for it. They presented burnt offerings and friendship offerings to God.
2 Daawitis erga aarsaa gubamuu fi aarsaa nagaa dhiʼeessee booddee maqaa Waaqayyootiin namoota ni eebbise.
Once David had finished presenting the burnt offerings and friendship offerings, he blessed the people in the name of the Lord.
3 Ergasiis inni tokkoo tokkoo nama Israaʼeliitiif, dhiiraa fi dubartiif buddeena tokko tokko, gumaa foonii tokko tokkoo fi bixxillee ija wayinii tokko tokko ni kenne.
Then he shared out to every Israelite, to every man and woman, a loaf of bread, a date cake, and a raisin cake.
4 Innis akka isaan fuula taabota Waaqayyoo duratti tajaajilaniif, akka isaan Waaqayyo Waaqa Israaʼel waammataniif, akka isa galateeffatanii fi akka isa jajataniif Lewwota tokko tokko ni muuddate;
David assigned some of the Levites to serve as ministers before the Ark of the Lord, to remember, to thank, and to praise the Lord, the God of Israel.

Asaph was the one in charge, Zechariah was second, then Jeiel, Shemiramoth, Jehiel, Mattithiah, Eliab, Benaiah, Obed-edom, and Jeiel. They played harps and lyres, and Asaph struck the cymbals,
6 Benaayaa fi Yahiziiʼeel luboonni yeroo hunda fuula taabota kakuu Waaqaa duratti malakata afuufu turan.
and the priests Benaiah and Jahaziel blew the trumpets continually in front of the Ark of God's Agreement.
7 Daawitis gaafa sana akka Asaafii fi michoota isaa faarfannaa galataa kana Waaqayyoof faarfataniif jalqabatti ajaja kenne:
This was the day that David first instructed Asaph and his relatives to express thanks to the Lord in this way:
8 Waaqayyoof galata galchaa; maqaa isaas waammadhaa; waan inni hojjetes saboota gidduutti beeksisaa.
Give the Lord thanks, worship his wonderful nature, let people know what he's done!
9 Isaaf faarfadhaa; faarfannaadhaan isa galateeffadhaa; waaʼee hojii isaa isa dinqisiisaa hundaas odeessaa.
Sing to him, sing his praises; tell everyone the great things he's done!
10 Maqaa isaa qulqulluu sanaan boonaa; garaan warra Waaqayyoon barbaadanii haa gammadu.
Be proud of his holy character; be happy, all who come to the Lord!
11 Waaqayyoo fi humna isaa barbaaddadhaa; yeroo hunda fuula isaa barbaadaa.
Look for the Lord, and his strength; always look to be with him.
12 Dinqii inni hojjete, hojii isaa dinqii sanaa fi murtii inni labse yaadadhaa;
Remember all the wonderful things he's done, the miracles he's performed, and the judgments he's carried out,
13 isin tajaajiltoonni isaa, warri sanyii Israaʼel taatan, isin filatamtoonni isaa, ilmaan Yaaqoobis kana yaadadhaa.
descendants of Israel, children of Jacob, his chosen people.
14 Inni Waaqayyo Waaqa keenya; murtiin isaas lafa hunda irra jira.
He is the Lord, our God, his judgments cover the whole earth.
15 Inni kakuu isaa bara baraan, waadaa gale sanas dhaloota kumaaf ni yaadata;
He remembers his agreement forever, the promise he made lasts for a thousand generations;
16 inni kakuu Abrahaam wajjin gale, kakuu Yisihaaqiif kakates ni yaadata.
the agreement he made with Abraham, the vow he gave to Isaac.
17 Kanas Yaaqoobiif seera, Israaʼeliif immoo kakuu bara baraa godhee akkana jedhee mirkaneesseera; innis:
The Lord legally confirmed it with Jacob, he made this everlasting agreement with Israel:
18 “Ani biyya Kanaʼaan qooda ati dhaaltu godhee, siif nan kenna” jedhe.
saying, “I will give the land of Canaan to you for you to possess.”
19 Isaan yeroo lakkoobsaan xinnoo turanitti, dhugumaanuu xinnoo fi biyyattii keessattis keessummoota turanitti,
He said this when there were only a few of you, just a small group of foreigners in the land.
20 sabaa gara sabaatti, mootummaa tokkoo gara mootummaa biraatti jooran.
They wandered from country to country, from one kingdom to the next.
21 Inni akka namni tokko iyyuu isaan cunqursu hin eeyyamne; sababii isaaniitiifis akkana jedhee mootota ifate:
He didn't let anyone one treat them badly; warning kings to leave them alone:
22 “Dibamtoota koo hin tuqinaa; raajota koos hin miidhinaa.”
“Don't touch my chosen people; don't harm my prophets!”
23 Lafti hundinuu Waaqayyoon faarfadhaa; fayyisuu isaas guyyuma guyyaan labsaa.
Sing to the Lord, all the earth, sing to the Lord! Each day let everyone know of his salvation!
24 Ulfina isaa saboota gidduutti, hojii isaa dinqisiisaa sana immoo namoota hunda keessatti labsaa.
Declare his glorious acts among the nations, the wonderful things he does among all peoples.
25 Waaqayyo guddaadhaatii galanni baayʼeen isaaf ni mala; inni waaqota hundaa olittis sodaatamuu qaba.
For the Lord is great, and deserves the best praise! He is to be respected with awe above all gods.
26 Waaqonni saboota ormaa hundinuu waaqota tolfamoodhaatii; Waaqayyo garuu samiiwwan uume.
For all the gods of other nations are idols; but the Lord made the heavens!
27 Miidhaginnii fi surraan fuula isaa dura jiru; jabinnii fi gammachuunis iddoo jireenya isaa jiru.
Splendor and majesty are his; power and glory are in his sanctuary.
28 Yaa maatiiwwan sabootaa, Waaqayyoof kennaa; ulfinaa fi jabina Waaqayyoof kennaa.
Give the Lord credit, nations of the world, credit him with glory and strength.
29 Ulfina maqaa isaatiif malu Waaqayyoof kennaa. Aarsaa fidaatii fuula isaa duratti dhiʼaadhaa. bareedina qulqullummaa isaatiin Waaqayyoon waaqeffadhaa.
Give the Lord the glory he deserves; bring an offering and come before him. Worship the Lord in his magnificent holiness.
30 Isin lafti hundinuu fuula isaa duratti holladhaa! Addunyaan jabaattee dhaabatteerti; sochoofamuus hin dandeessu.
Let everyone on earth tremble in his presence. The world is held together firmly—it cannot be broken apart.
31 Samiiwwan haa ililchan; laftis haa gammaddu; isaan saboota gidduutti, “Waaqayyo moʼeera!” haa jedhan.
Let the heavens sing for joy, let the earth be happy. Tell the nations, “The Lord is in charge!”
32 Galaannii fi wanni isa keessa jiru hundinuu haa huursu; dirreewwanii fi wanni isaan irra jiran hundinuu haa gammadani!
Let the sea and everything in it shout with praise! Let the fields and everything there celebrate;
33 Mukkeen bosonaa haa faarfatan; isaan gammachuudhaan fuula Waaqayyoo duratti haa faarfatan; inni lafatti muruudhaaf ni dhufaatii.
Let all the trees in the forest sing for joy, for he is coming to judge the earth.
34 Waaqayyoof galata galchaa; inni gaariidhaatii; jaalalli isaa bara baraan jiraata.
Say thank you to the Lord, for he is good! His trustworthy love continues forever!
35 Akkana jedhaatii iyyaa; “Yaa Waaqayyo, Fayyisaa keenya, ati nu baasi; akka nu maqaa kee qulqulluu sana galateeffannuuf, akka galata keetiin of jajnuufis, walitti nu qabiitii saboota ormaa jalaa nu oolchi.”
Shout out, “Save us, Lord, our God! Bring us back together from among the nations, rescue us, so we can thank you and praise how magnificent and holy you are.”
36 Waaqayyo Waaqa Israaʼeliitiif bara baraa hamma bara baraatti galanni haa gaʼu. Kana irratti namni hundinuu, “Ameen; Waaqayyo haa galatoomu” jedhe.
How wonderful is the Lord, the God of Israel, who lives forever and ever! Then all the people said, “Amen!” and “Praise the Lord!”
37 Daawitis akka isaan fuula taabotaa dura yeroo hunda tajaajilaniif, Asaafii fi obboloota isaa achuma fuula taabota kakuu Waaqayyoo duratti isaan dhiise.
Then David made sure Asaph and his brothers would minister continually before the Ark of the Lord's Agreement, performing whatever services were needed every day,
38 Akkasumas Oobeed Edoomii fi warra isaan wajjin hojjetan jaatamii saddeettan akka isaan wajjin tajaajilaniif achitti dhiise. Oobeed Edoom ilmi Yeduutuuniitii fi Hoosaan eegdota balbalaa turan.
as well as Obed-edom and his sixty-eight relatives. Obed-edom, son of Jeduthun, and Hosah, were gatekeepers.
39 Daawit Zaadoq lubichaa fi luboota isa wajjin hojjetan kaan dunkaana Waaqayyoo qulqulluu kan Gibeʼoon keessatti gaara sagadaa irratti argamu biratti dhiise;
David put Zadok the priest and his fellow priests in charge of the Ark of the Lord at the high place in Gibeon
40 kunis isaan akkuma waan Seera Waaqayyoo kan inni Israaʼeliif kenne hunda keessatti barreeffame sanaatti yeroo hunda galgalaa fi ganama iddoo aarsaa gubamuu irratti aarsaa gubamu Waaqayyoof akka dhiʼeessaniif.
to present burnt offerings to the Lord on the altar of burnt offerings, morning and evening, according to all that was written in the law of the Lord which he had ordered Israel to follow.
41 Isaan wajjinis Heemaanii fi Yeduutuun akkasumas warra akka, “Jaalalli isaa bara baraan jiraata” jedhanii Waaqayyoof galata galchaniif filatamanii maqaan isaanii beekame biraatu ture.
They were accompanied by Heman, Jeduthun, and the rest of those chosen and identified by name to give thanks to the Lord, for “His trustworthy love lasts forever.”
42 Heemaanii fi Yeduutuun sagalee malakataatiif kilillee dhageessisuu fi akkasumas meeshaa muuziiqaa kan Waaqaa irratti itti gaafatamtoota turan. Ilmaan Yeduutuun immoo karra eegan.
Heman and Jeduthun used their trumpets and cymbals to make music to accompany the songs of God. The sons of Jeduthun guarded the gate.
43 Ergasii namoonni hundinuu achii kaʼanii tokkoon tokkoon isaanii gara mana ofii isaatti galan; Daawit immoo maatii ofii eebbisuuf gara manaatti ni deebiʼe.
Then all the people went home, and David went to bless his family.
