Keessa Deebii 9
1 Yaa Israaʼel dhagaʼi. Ati Saboota si caalaa gurguddaa fi humna qabeeyyii, magaalaawwan dallaa samii gaʼuun marfaman qaban achii baaftee dhaaluuf Yordaanos ceʼuuf jirta.
Hear, O Israel: You go this day across Jordan to inherit nations greater and stronger than yourselves, cities great and walled up to heaven;
2 Namoonni sun ilmaan Anaaq warra jajjaboo fi dhedheeroo dha! Atis waaʼee isaanii ni beekta; akka, “Eenyutu Anaaqota dura dhaabachuu dandaʼa?” jedhamu illee dhageesseerta.
a people great and many and tall, the sons of Enac, whom you know, and concerning whom you have heard [say], Who can stand before the children of Enac?
3 Taʼus kan akkuma ibidda waa gubee fixuu si dura ceʼu Waaqayyo Waaqa kee taʼuu isaa harʼa beeki. Inni isaan balleessa; fuula kee durattis gad isaan deebisa. Atis akkuma Waaqayyo si abdachiise sanatti ariitee isaan baafta; daftees isaan fixxa.
And you shall know today, that the Lord your God he shall go before your face: he is a consuming fire; he shall destroy them, and he shall turn them back before you, and shall destroy them quickly, as the Lord said to you.
4 Erga Waaqayyo Waaqni kee fuula kee duraa ariʼee isaan baasee booddee ati garaa keetti, “Waaqayyo sababii qajeelummaa kootiif akka ani biyya kana dhaalu as na fide” hin jedhin. Waaqayyo sababii hammina isaaniitiif saboota kanneen fuula kee duraa ariʼee baasa.
Speak not in your heart, when the Lord your God has destroyed these nations before your face, saying, For my righteousness the Lord brought me in to inherit this good land.
5 Ati biyya isaaniitti galtee kan dhaaltu qajeelummaa keetiin yookaan gaarummaa garaa keetiitiin utuu hin taʼin Waaqayyo kakuu abbootii kee Abrahaamiif, Yisihaaqii fi Yaaqoobiif gale sana guutuudhaaf jedhee Waaqayyo Waaqni kee saboota kanneen sababii hammina isaaniitiif fuula kee duraa ariʼee baasa.
Not for your righteousness, nor for the holiness of your heart, do you go in to inherit their land, but because of the wickedness of these nations the Lord will destroy them from before you, and that he may establish the covenant, which the Lord sware to our fathers, to Abraam, and to Isaac, and to Jacob.
6 Egaa Waaqayyo Waaqni kee kan biyya gaarii kana akka dhaaltuuf siif kennu sababii qajeelummaa keetiitiif akka hin taʼin hubadhu; ati saba mata jabeessaatii.
And you shall know today, that [it is] not for your righteousnesses the Lord your God gives you this good land to inherit, for you are a stiff-necked people.
7 Ati akkamitti akka gammoojjii keessatti Waaqayyo Waaqa kee dheekkamsaaf kakaafte yaadadhu; hin dagatinis. Ati gaafa biyya Gibxii baatee jalqabdee hamma as geessutti Waaqayyotti fincilaa turte.
Remember, forget not, how much you provoked the Lord your God in the wilderness: from the day that you came forth out of Egypt, even till you came into this place, you continued to be disobedient towards the Lord.
8 Isin Kooreebitti iyyuu Waaqayyoon dheekkamsaaf kakaasnaan Waaqayyo isin barbadeessuuf isinitti aare.
Also in Choreb you provoked the Lord, and the Lord was angry with you to destroy you;
9 Ani yeroo gabateewwan dhagaa jechuunis gabateewwan kakuu Waaqayyo isin wajjin gale sanaa fuudhuuf tulluutti ol baʼetti guyyaa afurtamaa fi halkan afurtama tulluu sana irran ture; ani buddeena tokko illee hin nyaanne; bishaan illee hin dhugne.
when I went up into the mountain to receive the tables of stone, the tables of the covenant, which the Lord made with you, and I was in the mountain forty days and forty nights, I ate no bread and drank no water.
10 Waaqayyos gabateewwan dhagaa lama kanneen quba Waaqayyootiin irratti barreeffame natti kenne. Ajajawwan Waaqayyo yeroo isin walitti qabamtanitti tulluu irratti ibidda keessaa isinitti labse hundi gabateewwan sana irra turan.
And the Lord gave me the two tables of stone written with the finger of God, and on them there had been written all the words which the Lord spoke to you in the mountain in the day of the assembly.
11 Dhuma guyyaa afurtamaatii fi halkan afurtamaatti Waaqayyo gabateewwan dhagaa lama jechuunis gabateewwan kakuu natti kenne.
And it came to pass after forty days and forty nights, the Lord gave me the two tables of stone, the tables of the covenant.
12 Gaafas Waaqayyo akkana naan jedhe; “Kaʼii dafii gad buʼi; sabni kee kan ati biyya Gibxiitii baaftee fidde sun xuraaʼeeraatii. Isaan waan ani isaan ajaje irraa dafanii garagalanii ofii isaaniitiif Waaqa baqfamee hojjetame tolfataniiruutii.”
And the Lord said to me, Arise, go down quickly from hence, for your people whom you brought out of the land of Egypt have transgressed; they have gone aside quickly out of the way which I commanded them, and have made themselves a molten image.
13 Waaqayyo ammas akkana naan jedhe; “Ani saba kana argeera; kunoo inni saba mata jabeessa!
And the Lord spoke to me, saying, I have spoken to you once and again, saying, I have seen this people, and, behold, it is a stiff-necked people.
14 Akka ani isaan balleessee maqaa isaanii illee samii gadii haquuf na dhiisi; siʼi immoo isaan caalaa saba guddaa fi jabaa nan godha.”
And now suffer me utterly to destroy them, and I will blot out their name from under heaven, and will make of you a nation great and strong, and more numerous than this.
15 Anis of irra garagalee utuma tulluun sun bobaʼaa jiruu tulluu irraa gad nan buʼe. Gabateewwan kakuu lamaan sunis na harka turan.
And I turned and went down from the mountain; and the mountain burnt with fire to heaven; and the two tables of the testimonies [were] in my two hands.
16 Anis nan arge; kunoo isin Waaqayyo Waaqa keessanitti cubbuu hojjettanii turtan; isin bifa jabbiitiin Waaqa baqfamee hojjetame ofii keessaniif tolfattanii turtan. Isin daftanii karaa Waaqayyo isin ajaje irraa jalʼattan.
And when I saw that you had sinned against the Lord your God, and had made to yourselves a molten image, and had gone astray out of the way, which the Lord commanded you to keep;
17 Kanaafuu ani gabateewwan lamaan sana harka koo irraa darbadhee ijuma keessan duratti nan caccabse.
then I took hold of the two tables, and cast them out of my two hands, and broke them before you.
18 Sababii cubbuu isin hojjettan hundaa kan isin fuula Waaqayyoo duratti waan hamaa hojjechuudhaan dheekkamsaaf isa kakaaftan sanaatiif ani ammas fuula Waaqayyoo duratti gombifamee utuun buddeena hin nyaatinii fi bishaan hin dhugin guyyaa afurtamaa fi halkan afurtaman ture.
And I made my petition before the Lord as also at the first forty days and forty nights: I ate no bread and drank no water, on account of all your sins which you sinned in doing evil before the Lord God to provoke him.
19 Sababii inni isin balleessuuf aaree tureef, ani aarii fi dheekkamsa Waaqayyoo nan sodaadhe. Waaqayyo garuu amma illee na dhagaʼe.
And I was greatly terrified because of the wrath and anger, because the Lord was provoked with you utterly to destroy you; yet the Lord listened to me at this time also.
20 Waaqayyo Aroonin balleessuuf akka malee itti aaree ture; ani garuu yeroo sana Arooniifis nan kadhadhe.
And he was angry with Aaron to destroy him utterly, and I prayed for Aaron also at that time.
21 Akkasumas ani cubbuu keessan bifa jabbii isin tolfattan sanaa fuudhee ibiddaan nan gube. Caccabsees hamma inni bullaaʼaa akka awwaaraa taʼutti bulleessee burqaa tulluu irraa gad yaaʼuttan firfirse.
And your sin which you had made, [even] the calf, I took, and burnt it with fire, and pounded it and ground it down till it became fine; and it became like dust, and I cast the dust into the brook that descended from the mountain.
22 Isinis Tabeeraatti, Maasaahii fi Qiibrooti Hataawaatti Waaqayyo dheekkamsiiftan.
Also in the burning, and in the temptation, and at the graves of lust, you provoked the Lord.
23 Waaqayyo yommuu Qaadesh Barneetii isin baasetti, “Ol baʼaatii biyya ani isiniif kenne sana dhaalaa” isiniin jedhe. Isin garuu ajaja Waaqayyo Waaqa keessaniitti finciltan. Isas hin amananne; hin ajajamneefis.
And when the Lord sent you forth from Cades Barne, saying, Go up and inherit the land which I give to you, then you disobeyed the word of the Lord your God, and believed him not, and listened not to his voice.
24 Isin erga ani isin beekee jalqabdanii Waaqayyotti finciltaniirtu.
You were disobedient in the things relating to the Lord from the day in which he became known to you.
25 Sababii Waaqayyo akka isin balleessu dubbatee tureef ani guyyaa afurtamaa fi halkan afurtaman sana fuula Waaqayyoo duratti lafatti nan gombifame.
And I prayed before the Lord forty days and forty nights, the number that I prayed [before], for the Lord said that he would utterly destroy you.
26 Anis akkana jedheen Waaqayyoon kadhadhe; “Yaa Waaqayyo Gooftaa, ati saba kee, dhaala kee kan humna kee guddichaa fi harka kee jabaadhaan furtee biyya Gibxii baafte kana hin balleessin.
And I prayed to God, and said, O Lord, King of gods, destroy not your people and your inheritance, whom you did redeem, whom you brought out of the land of Egypt with your great power, and with your strong hand, and with your high arm.
27 Garboota kee Abrahaam, Yisihaaqii fi Yaaqoobin yaadadhu. Mata jabina saba kanaa, hammina isaatii fi cubbuu isaa hin ilaalin.
Remember Abraam, and Isaac, and Jacob your servants, to whom you sware by yourself: look not upon the hardness of heart of this people, and their impieties, and their sins.
28 Yoo kanaa achii biyyi ati keessaa nu baafte sun, ‘Waaqayyo waan biyya waadaa isaaniif gale sanatti isaan galchuu hin dandeenyee fi waan isaan jibbeef gammoojjii keessatti isaan fixuuf isaan baase’ jedha.
Lest the inhabitants of the land whence you brought us out speak, saying, Because the Lord could not bring them into the land of which he spoke to them, and because he hated them, has he brought them forth to kill them in the wilderness.
29 Isaan garuu saba keetii fi dhaala kee kan ati humna jabaa fi irree diriirfameen baaftee fiddee dha.”
And these [are] your people and your portion, whom you brought out of the land of Egypt with your great strength, and with your mighty hand, and with your high arm.
