10 Isaan keessaas tokko tokko sibiilaan hidhamanii rakkachaa, dukkanaa fi dimimmisa keessa jiraatan;
Some sat in darkness and in the shadow of death, being bound in affliction and iron,
11 isaan dubbii Waaqaatti fincilanii gorsa Waaqa Waan Hundaa Oliis tuffataniiruutii.
because they rebelled against the words of God, and condemned the counsel of the Most High.
12 Kanaafuu inni dabarsee hojii dadhabsiisaatti isaan kenne; isaanis ni gufatan; namni isaan gargaaru tokko iyyuu hin argamne.

37 Lafa qotiisaa isaanii facaafatanii wayiniis ni dhaabbatan; midhaan gaariis argatan.

Whoever is wise will pay attention to these things. They will consider the loving kindnesses of the LORD.
