Keessa Deebii 8
1 Isin akka lubbuun jiraattan, akka baayʼattanii fi akka biyya Waaqayyo kakuudhaan abbootii keessan abdachiise sanatti galtanii dhaaltaniif ajaja ani harʼa siif kennu hunda of eeggannaadhaan duukaa buʼaa.
All the commandment which I am commanding thee to-day, shalt thou, observe, to do, —that ye may, live, and multiply, and enter in and possess the land, which Yahweh sware unto your fathers.
2 Waaqayyo Waaqni kee gad si qabee si qoruudhaan waan garaa kee keessa jiru jechuunis akka ati ajajawwan isaa eegduu fi hin eegne beekuuf karaa inni waggoota afurtamman kanneen guutuu gammoojjii keessa si qajeelche yaadadhu.
So then, thou shalt remember all the way in which Yahweh thy God caused thee to journey these forty years in the desert, —that he might humble thee to put thee to the proof to know what was in thy heart, —whether thou wouldest keep his commandments or not.
3 Innis gad si deebisee si beelessee “mannaa” ati yookaan abbootiin kee hin beekin si soore; kunis akka namni dubbii afaan Waaqayyootii baʼu hundaan malee buddeena qofaan hin jiraanne si barsiisuuf.
So he humbled thee, and suffered thee to hunger, and fed thee with manna which thou hadst not known, neither had thy fathers known, —that he might lead thee to consider that not on bread alone, shall the son of earth live, but on whatsoever cometh from the bidding of Yahweh, shall the son of earth live.
4 Waggoota afurtamman kanneen keessa uffanni kee hin dhumne; miilli kees hin iitofne.
Thy mantle, hath not fallen with age from off thee, and, thy foot, hath not become swollen, —these forty years.
5 Akka Waaqayyo Waaqni kee akkuma abbaan ilma isaa adabatu akka si adabu beeki.
Thou must consider, then with thy heart, —that as a man chasteneth his son, Yahweh thy God, hath been chastening thee.
6 Daandiiwwan isaa irra deemuu fi isa sodaachuudhaan ajajawwan Waaqayyo Waaqa keetii eegi.
Thou shalt therefore keep the commandments of Yahweh thy God, —to walk in his ways and to revere him.
7 Waaqayyo Waaqni kee biyya gaarii kan lageen, haroowwanii fi burqaawwan sululootaa fi gaarran keessaa yaaʼaniitti si galchaatii.
For, Yahweh thy God, is bringing thee into a good land; a land of ravines of water, of fountains and depths, coming forth in valley, and in mountain:
8 Biyya qamadii fi garbuu, wayinii fi harbuu, roomaanii, zayitii ejersaatii fi damma baasutti,
a land of wheat and barley, and vine and fig-tree, and pomegranate, —a land of olive oil, and honey:
9 biyya ati hirʼina malee buddeena nyaattuu fi biyya ati keessaa homaa hin dhabne, biyya kattaan sibiila taʼe, biyya ati gaarran keessaa sibiila diimaa baasuu dandeessuu dha.
a land wherein not in scarcity, shalt thou eat food, thou shalt lack nothing therein, —a land whose stones are iron, and out of whose hills thou mayest hew copper.
10 Yeroo nyaattee quuftutti, sababii Waaqayyo Waaqni kee biyya gaarii akkasii siif kenneef isa jajadhu.
So then thou shalt eat and be satisfied, —and bless Yahweh thy God, for the good land which he hath given unto thee.
11 Ati akka ajajawwan, qajeelfamawwanii fi seerawwan isaa kanneen ani harʼa siif kennu eeguu baachuudhaan Waaqayyo Waaqa kee hin daganne of eeggadhu.
Take heed to thyself, lest thou forget Yahweh thy God, —so as not to keep his commandments and his regulations and his statutes, which I am commanding thee to-day;
12 Yoo kanaa achii yommuu nyaattee quuftutti, yommuu mana gaarii ijaarrattee keessa jiraattutti,
lest thou eat, and be satisfied, —and goodly houses, thou build and inhabit;
13 yommuu loonii fi bushaayeen kee wal horanii meetii fi warqeen kee dabaluu fi yommuu wanni ati qabdu hundi baayʼatutti,
and thy herd and thy flock, increase, and silver and gold, increase unto thee, —and all that thou hast, increase;
14 ati of tuultee Waaqayyo Waaqa kee isa biyya Gibxi, biyya garbummaatii baasee si fide sana ni dagatta.
and so thy heart be lifted up, —and thou forget Yahweh thy God, who brought thee forth out of the land of Egypt out of the house of servants;
15 Inni gammoojjii balʼaa fi sodaachisaa, biyya dheebuutii fi kan bishaan hin qabne, biyya bofa hadhaa qabuu fi torbaanqabaan keessa guute sana keessa si deemsise. Kattaa jabaa keessaas bishaan siif burqisiise.
who caused thee to journey through the great and terrible desert, of fiery serpents and scorpions, and thirsty wastes where was no water, —who brought forth for thee water out of the flinty rock;
16 Akka dhuma irratti sitti toluuf jedhee gad si qabuu fi si qoruudhaaf, waan takkumaa abbootiin kee hin beekin gammoojjii keessatti “mannaa” ati nyaattu siif kenne.
who fed thee with manna in the desert, which thy fathers had not known, —that he might humble thee, and that he might put thee to the proof, to do thee good in thy hereafter,
17 Ati, “Humna kootii fi jabina harka kootu qabeenya kana naaf argamsiise jettee” yaadda taʼa.
and lest thou shouldest say in thy heart, —Mine own strength and the might of mine own hand, have gotten me this wealth.
18 Garuu Waaqayyo Waaqa kee yaadadhu; kan akkuma harʼa jiru kanatti akka ati qabeenya horattuuf dandeettii siif kennee waadaa kakuudhaan abbootii keetiif gale sana siif eege isaatii.
But thou shalt remember Yahweh thy God, that it was, he, who had been giving thee strength to get wealth, —that so he might establish his covenant which he sware to thy fathers (as at this day).
19 Yoo ati Waaqayyo Waaqa kee irraanfattee waaqota biraa duukaa buute, yoo isaan waaqeffattee fi isaaniif sagadde akka isin dhugumaan baddan ani harʼa dhugaa isinitti nan baʼa.
But it shall be if thou forget, Yahweh thy God, and go after ether gods, and serve them, and bow thyself down to them, I testify against you to-day, that ye shall perish:
20 Akkuma Saboota Waaqayyo fuula keessan duraa balleesse sanaa Waaqayyo Waaqa keessaniif waan ajajamuu didaniif akkasuma isinis ni balleeffamtu.
like the nations which, Yahweh, is causing to perish from before you, so, shall ye perish, because ye would not hearken unto the voice of Yahweh your God.
