17 Dhagaa cabbii akkuma cirrachaa gad darbata. Dhaamocha isaa dura eenyutu dhaabachuu dandaʼa?

18 Inni dubbii isaa ergee isaan baqsa; bubbee isaa ni kaasa; bishaanonnis ni yaaʼu.
He sendeth his worde and melteth them: he causeth his winde to blowe, and the waters flowe.
19 Inni dubbii isaa Yaaqoobitti, seeraa fi sirna isaa immoo Israaʼelitti mulʼiseera.
He sheweth his word vnto Iaakob, his statutes and his iudgements vnto Israel.
