Keessa Deebii 31
1 Ergasiis Museen dhaqee dubbii kana Israaʼel hundatti dubbate:
And Moses goes and speaks these words to all Israel,
2 “Ani amma nama waggaa dhibbaa fi digdamaa ti; siʼachis isin hoogganuu hin dandaʼu. Waaqayyo, ‘Ati Yordaanos hin ceetu’ naan jedheera.
and he says to them, “I [am] a son of one hundred and twenty years today; I am not able to go out and to come in anymore, and YHWH has said to me, You do not pass over this Jordan.
3 Waaqayyo Waaqni kee mataan isaa si dura ni ceʼa. Inni saboota kanneen fuula kee duraa ni barbadeessa; atis biyya isaanii ni dhaalta. Akkuma Waaqayyo jedhetti, Iyyaasuunis si dura ni ceʼa.
Your God YHWH—He is passing over before you; He destroys these nations from before you, and you have possessed them; Joshua—he is passing over before you, as YHWH has spoken.
4 Waaqayyo akkuma Sihoonii fi Oogi mootota Amoorotaa sana biyya isaanii wajjin balleesse sana isaan kanneenis ni balleessa.
And YHWH has done to them as he has done to Sihon and to Og, kings of the Amorite, and to their land, whom He destroyed.
5 Waaqayyo dabarsee harka keessanitti isaan kenna; isinis waan ani isin ajaje hunda isaan gochuu qabdu.
And YHWH has given them before your face, and you have done to them according to all the command which I have commanded you;
6 Cimaa; jabaadhaa. Waaqayyo Waaqni keessan isin wajjin deemaatii isin sababii isaaniitiif jettanii hin sodaatinaa yookaan hin rifatinaa; inni gonkumaa isin hin dhiisu yookaan isin hin gatu.”
be strong and courageous, do not fear, nor be terrified because of them, for your God YHWH [is] He who is going with you; He does not fail you nor forsake you.”
7 Kana irratti Museen Iyyaasuu ofitti waamee fuula Israaʼel hundaa duratti akkana jedheen; “Ati sababii biyya Waaqayyo isaaniif kennuuf abbootii isaaniitiif kakatetti galuuf saba kana wajjin deemtuuf cimi; jabaadhus; biyyattiis akka dhaalan godhi.
And Moses calls for Joshua and says to him before the eyes of all Israel, “Be strong and courageous, for you go in with this people to the land which YHWH has sworn to their fathers to give to them, and you cause them to inherit it;
8 Waaqayyo mataan isaa si dura ni deema; si wajjinis ni jiraata; inni si hin dhiisu yookaan si hin gatu. Hin sodaatin; abdiis hin kutatin.”
and YHWH [is] He who is going before you, He Himself is with you; He does not fail you nor forsake you; do not fear, nor be frightened.”
9 Museenis seera kana barreessee ilmaan Lewwii kanneen luboota taʼanii taabota kakuu Waaqayyoo baatanii fi maanguddoota Israaʼel hundatti kenne.
And Moses writes this law and gives it to the priests (sons of Levi, those carrying the Ark of the Covenant of YHWH), and to all [the] elderly of Israel,
10 Ergasiis Museen akkana jedhee isaan ajaje; “Dhuma waggaa torbaffaatti, yeroo itti gatiin dhiifamutti, yeroo itti Ayyaanni Daasii ayyaaneffamutti,
and Moses commands them, saying, “At the end of seven years, in the appointed time, the year of release, in the Celebration of Shelters,
11 yommuu Israaʼel hundi fuula Waaqayyo Waaqa keetii duratti mulʼachuuf lafa inni filatu dhufanitti akka isaan dhagaʼaniif fuula isaanii duratti seera kana isaanii dubbifta.
in the coming in of all Israel to see the face of YHWH in the place which He chooses, you proclaim this law before all Israel in their ears.
12 Akka isaan dubbii seera kanaa hunda dhagaʼanii Waaqayyo Waaqa kee sodaachuu baratanii fi of eeggannaadhaan faana buʼaniif namoota jechuunis dhiirota, dubartoota, ijoollee fi alagoota magaalaawwan kee keessa jiraatan walitti qabi.
Assemble the people, the men, and the women, and the infants, and your sojourner who [is] within your gates, so that they hear, and so that they learn, and have feared your God YHWH, and observed to do all the words of this law;
13 Bara isin biyya Yordaanos ceetanii dhaaltan keessa jiraattan guutuu ijoolleen isaanii kanneen seera kana hin beeknes dhagaʼuu fi Waaqayyo Waaqa isaanii sodaachuu barachuu qabu.”
and their sons, who have not known, hear and have learned to fear your God YHWH [for] all the days which you are living on the ground to where you are passing over the Jordan to possess it.”
14 Waaqayyo Museedhaan, “Yeroon ati duutu dhiʼaateera. Akka ani waan inni hojjechuu malu itti himuuf Iyyaasuu waamiitii dunkaana wal gaʼii biratti dhiʼaadhaa” jedhe. Musee fi Iyyaasuunis dhufanii dunkaana wal gaʼii duratti dhiʼaatan.
And YHWH says to Moses, “Behold, your days have drawn near to die; call Joshua, and station yourselves in the Tent of Meeting, and I charge him”; and Moses goes—Joshua also—and they station themselves in the Tent of Meeting,
15 Waaqayyo utubaa duumessaatiin dhufee dunkaanicha keessatti mulʼate; duumessi sunis balbala dunkaanichaa dura dhaabate.
and YHWH is seen in the tent in a pillar of a cloud; and the pillar of the cloud stands at the opening of the tent.
16 Waaqayyos Museedhaan akkana jedhe; “Ati abbootii kee wajjin ni boqotta; sabni kun immoo yommuu suma biyya dhaaluuf itti galutti waaqota Namoota Ormaa duukaa buʼee sagaagaluu jalqaba. Isaan na dhiisanii kakuu ani isaan wajjin gale ni cabsu.
And YHWH says to Moses, “Behold, you are lying down with your fathers, and this people has risen and gone whoring after the gods of the stranger of the land, into the midst of which it has entered, and it has forsaken Me and broken My covenant which I made with it;
17 Gaafas ani isaanitti aaree isaan nan dhiisa; fuula koos isaan duraa nan dhoksa; isaanis ni barbadeeffamu. Badiisaa fi rakkoo baayʼeetu isaanitti dhufa; isaanis gaafasi, ‘Badiisni kun waan Waaqni keenya nu wajjin hin jirreef nutti dhufe mitii?’ jedhanii gaafatu.
and My anger has burned against it in that day, and I have forsaken them, and hidden My face from them, and it has been for consumption, and many evils and distresses have found it, and it has said in that day, [Is] it not because my God is not in my midst that these evils have found me?
18 Waan isaan gara waaqota biraatti garagalaniif ani sababii hammina isaanii hundaatiif guutumaan guutuutti fuula koo isaan duraa nan dhokfadha.
And I certainly hide My face in that day for all the evil which it has done, for it has turned to other gods.
19 “Akka isaanitti ragaa naa taʼuuf, faarfannaa kana barreeffadhuutii akka isaan faarfataniif Israaʼeloota barsiisi.
And now, write this song for yourselves, and teach it [to] the sons of Israel; put it in their mouths, so that this song is to Me for a witness against the sons of Israel.
20 Yommuu ani biyya aannanii fi dammi keessaa burqu kan ani abbootii isaaniitiif kakuudhaan waadaa galetti isaan fidutti isaan nyaatanii quufanii narraa garagaluudhaan waaqota biraa waaqeffatu; na dhiisaniis kakuu koo ni cabsu.
When I bring them to the ground flowing with milk and honey, which I have sworn to their fathers, and they have eaten, and been satisfied, and been fat, and have turned to other gods, and they have served them, and despised Me, and broken My covenant,
21 Faarfannaan kunis yommuu badiisnii fi rakkinni isaanitti dhufuti ragaa isaanitti taʼa; kun sanyii isaanii keessatti hin irraanfatamuutii. Ani utuu biyya kakuudhaan waadaa isaanii galetti isaan hin fidin iyyuu waan isaan gochuuf yaadan nan beekaatii.”
then it has been, when many evils and distresses meet it, that this song has testified to its face for a witness; for it is not forgotten out of the mouth of its seed, for I have known its imagining which it is doing today, before I bring them into the land of which I have sworn.”
22 Kanaafuu Museen gaafas faarfannaa kana barreessee Israaʼeloota barsiise.
And Moses writes this song on that day, and teaches it [to] the sons of Israel.
23 Waaqayyos Iyyaasuu ilma Nuunitiif ajaja, “Ati sababii biyya ani kakuudhaan waadaa isaanii galetti Israaʼeloota galchituuf cimi, jabaadhu; ani mataan koo si wajjin jiraa” jedhu kenne.
Then He commands Joshua son of Nun, and says, “Be strong and courageous, for you bring in the sons of Israel to the land which I have sworn to them, and I am with you.”
24 Museen erga dubbii seera kanaa jalqabaa hamma dhumaatti kitaaba irratti barreessee fixee booddee,
And it comes to pass, when Moses finishes to write the words of this law on a scroll, until their completion,
25 Lewwota taabota kakuu Waaqayyoo baataniif ajaja kana kenne:
that Moses commands the Levites carrying the Ark of the Covenant of YHWH, saying,
26 “Kitaaba Seeraa kana fudhuutii taabota kakuu Waaqayyo Waaqa keetii bira kaaʼi. Kunis akka inni achuma taaʼee ragaa isinitti taʼuuf.
“Take this Scroll of the Law, and you have set it on the side of the Ark of the Covenant of your God YHWH, and it has been against you for a witness there;
27 Ani akka isin finciltootaa fi mata jabeeyyii taatan nan beekaatii. Isin yoo utuma ani jiruu Waaqayyotti finciltan, erga ani duʼee booddee immoo hammam caalaa haa finciltan ree!
for I have known your rebellion and your stiff neck; behold, in my being yet alive with you today, you have been rebelling against YHWH, and surely also after my death.
28 Akka ani akka isaan dhagaʼaniif dubbii kana isaanitti hime akka isaanitti ragaa taʼuuf samii fi lafa waammachuu dandaʼuuf maanguddoota gosoota keessanii hundaa fi qondaaltota keessan hunda fuula koo duratti walitti qabaa.
Assemble to me all the elderly of your tribes, and your authorities, and I speak these words in their ears, and cause the heavens and the earth to testify against them,
29 Ani akka isin erga ani duʼee booddee guutumaan guutuutti xurooftanii ajaja ani isinii kenne irraa garagaltan nan beekaatii. Baroota dhufuuf jiran keessa rakkinni isinitti dhufa; isin fuula Waaqayyoo duratti waan hamaa hojjettanii hojiidhuma harka keessaniitiin dheekkamsaaf isa kakaaftuutii.”
for I have known that you act very corruptly after my death, and have turned aside from the way which I commanded you, and evil has met you in the latter end of the days, because you do evil in the eyes of YHWH, to make Him angry with the work of your hands.”
30 Museenis jalqabaa hamma dhumaatti dubbii faarfannaa kanaa guutummaa waldaa Israaʼelitti akkana jedhee dhageessise:
And Moses speaks the words of this song in the ears of all the assembly of Israel, until their completion:
