¹Give ear, O ye heavens, and I will speak; and hear, O earth, the words of my mouth.

¹'Pange tähele, taevad, sest mina räägin, ja kuule, maa, mu suu kõnesid!

²My doctrine shall drop as the rain, my speech shall distil as the dew, as the small rain upon the tender herb, and as the showers upon the grass:

²Mu õpetus voolaku vihmana, mu kõne nõrgugu kastena, nagu haljusele vihmasagar ja rohule vihmapiisad!

³Because I will publish the name of the LORD: ascribe ye greatness unto our God.

³Sest ma kuulutan Issanda nime, andke au meie Jumalale!

⁴He is the Rock, his work is perfect: for all his ways are judgment: a God of truth and without iniquity, just and right is he.

⁴Tema on kalju, tema töö on täiuslik, sest kõik tema teed on õiged. Jumal on ustav ja temas pole väärust, tema on õige ja õiglane.

⁵They have corrupted themselves, their spot is not the spot of his children: they are a perverse and crooked generation.

⁵Pahasti on tehtud temaga - need ei ole tema lapsed: häbiplekk, nurjatu ja pöörane sugupõlv.

⁶Do ye thus requite the LORD, O foolish people and unwise? is not he thy father that hath bought thee? hath he not made thee, and established thee?

⁶Kas te nõnda tasute Issandale, rumal ja tarkuseta rahvas? Eks ta ole su isa, sinu looja? Tema on sind teinud ja valmistanud.

⁷Remember the days of old, consider the years of many generations: ask thy father, and he will show thee; thy elders, and they will tell thee.

⁷Meenuta muistseid päevi, pane tähele aastaid põlvest põlve! Küsi oma isalt, et ta jutustaks sulle, oma vanadelt, et nad räägiksid sulle!

⁸When the Most High divided to the nations their inheritance, when he separated the sons of Adam, he set the bounds of the people according to the number of the children of Israel.

⁸Kui Kõigekõrgem andis rahvaile pärisosa, kui ta jaotas inimlapsi, siis ta määras kindlaks rahvaste piirid vastavalt Iisraeli laste arvule,

⁹For the LORD's portion is his people; Jacob is the lot of his inheritance.

⁹sest Issanda omand on tema rahvas, tema mõõdetud pärisosa on Jaakob.

¹⁰He found him in a desert land, and in the waste howling wilderness; he led him about, he instructed him, he kept him as the apple of his eye.

¹⁰Ta leidis tema kõrbemaalt, tühjast paigast, uluvast kõrbest; ta võttis tema oma kaitse alla, hoolitses tema eest, ta hoidis teda nagu oma silmatera.

¹¹As an eagle stirreth up her nest, fluttereth over her young, spreadeth abroad her wings, taketh them, beareth them on her wings:

¹¹Nõnda nagu kotkas oma pesakonda lendu ergutades hõljub kaitstes oma poegade kohal, nõnda laotas ta oma tiivad, võttis tema ja kandis teda oma tiivasulgedel.

¹²So the LORD alone did lead him, and there was no strange god with him.

¹²Issand üksi juhtis teda, ükski võõras jumal ei olnud koos temaga.

¹³He made him ride on the high places of the earth, that he might eat the increase of the fields; and he made him to suck honey out of the rock, and oil out of the flinty rock;

¹³Ta sõidutas teda üle maa kõrgendike ja tema sõi väljade vilju: ta imetas teda meega kaljust ja õliga ränikivist.

¹⁴Butter of kine, and milk of sheep, with fat of lambs, and rams of the breed of Bashan, and goats, with the fat of kidneys of wheat; and thou didst drink the pure blood of the grape.

¹⁴Võid veistelt ning piima lammastelt ja kitsedelt, juures tallede ja jäärade rasv; Baasani härgi ja sikke, lisaks nisu, otsekui neerurasv. Ja viinamarjaverest sa jõid veini.

¹⁵But Jeshurun waxed fat, and kicked: thou art waxen fat, thou art grown thick, thou art covered with fatness; then he forsook God which made him, and lightly esteemed the Rock of his salvation.

¹⁵Ja Jesurun rasvus, aga muutus tõrksaks - sa läksid lihavaks, paksuks, täidlaseks - ta hülgas Jumala, oma looja, ja põlgas oma päästekaljut.

¹⁶They provoked him to jealousy with strange gods, with abominations provoked they him to anger.

¹⁶Nad ärritasid teda võõraste jumalatega, nad vihastasid teda oma jäledustega.

¹⁷They sacrificed unto devils, not to God; to gods whom they knew not, to new gods that came newly up, whom your fathers feared not.

¹⁷Nad ohverdasid haldjaile, kes ei ole jumalad, jumalaile, keda nad ei tundnud, kes olid uued, äsja tulnud, kellest teie vanemad ei teadnud.

¹⁸Of the Rock that begat thee thou art unmindful, and hast forgotten God that formed thee.

¹⁸Sa ei mäletanud kaljut, kes sinu sünnitas, ja unustasid Jumala, kes andis sulle elu.

¹⁹And when the LORD saw it, he abhorred them, because of the provoking of his sons, and of his daughters.

¹⁹Kui Issand seda nägi, siis ta põlastas neid tusast oma poegade ja tütarde pärast.

²⁰And he said, I will hide my face from them, I will see what their end shall be: for they are a very froward generation, children in whom is no faith.

²⁰Ta ütles: Ma peidan oma palge nende eest ja vaatan, milline on nende lõpp, sest nad on pöörane sugu, lapsed, kelles ei ole truudust.

²¹They have moved me to jealousy with that which is not God; they have provoked me to anger with their vanities: and I will move them to jealousy with those which are not a people; I will provoke them to anger with a foolish nation.

²¹Nad on mind ärritanud nendega, kes ei ole jumalad, on mind vihastanud oma tühisustega. Aga mina ärritan neid rahvaga, kes ei ole rahvas: ma vihastan neid mõistmatute paganatega.

²²For a fire is kindled in mine anger, and shall burn unto the lowest hell, and shall consume the earth with her increase, and set on fire the foundations of the mountains.

²²Sest mu vihatuli on süttinud põlema ja lõõmab hauasügavuseni; see hävitab maa koos saagiga ja põletab mägede alused.

²³I will heap mischiefs upon them; I will spend mine arrows upon them.

²³Ma kuhjan nende peale õnnetusi, ma raiskan nende vastu kõik oma nooled.

²⁴They shall be burnt with hunger, and devoured with burning heat, and with bitter destruction: I will also send the teeth of beasts upon them, with the poison of serpents of the dust.

²⁴Neid peab kurnama nälg, purema palavikutaud ja pahatõbi; ma saadan nende kallale metsaliste hambad ja põrmus roomajate mürgi.

²⁵The sword without, and terror within, shall destroy both the young man and the virgin, the suckling also with the man of gray hairs.

²⁵Väljas laastab neid mõõk ja sees hirm, niihästi noormehi kui neidusid, imikuid koos hallipäiste meestega.

²⁶I said, I would scatter them into corners, I would make the remembrance of them to cease from among men:

²⁶Ma oleksin ütelnud: Ma hajutan nad, ma kaotan nende mälestuse inimeste hulgast,

²⁷Were it not that I feared the wrath of the enemy, lest their adversaries should behave themselves strangely, and lest they should say, Our hand is high, and the LORD hath not done all this.

²⁷kui ma poleks pidanud kartma vaenlase pilget, et nende vastased seda mõistmata ei ütleks: 'Meie käsi on olnud võidukas, ega Issand ole kõike seda teinud!'

²⁸For they are a nation void of counsel, neither is there any understanding in them.

²⁸Sest see on rahvas, kes on kaotanud arukuse - neil ei ole taipu.

²⁹O that they were wise, that they understood this, that they would consider their latter end!

²⁹Kui nad oleksid targad, siis nad taipaksid seda, nad mõistaksid oma lõppu.

³⁰How should one chase a thousand, and two put ten thousand to flight, except their Rock had sold them, and the LORD had shut them up?

³⁰Kuidas võis üksainus jälitada tuhandet ja kaks kihutada põgenema kümme tuhat, kui mitte nende kalju ei oleks neid müünud ja Issand nad loovutanud?

³¹For their rock is not as our Rock, even our enemies themselves being judges.

³¹Sest nende kalju ei ole meie kalju sarnane: seda võivad otsustada meie vaenlasedki.

³²For their vine is of the vine of Sodom, and of the fields of Gomorrah: their grapes are grapes of gall, their clusters are bitter:

³²Tõesti, nende viinapuu on Soodoma viinapuust ja Gomorra väljadelt; nende marjad on mürgised marjad, neil on kibedad kobarad.

³³Their wine is the poison of dragons, and the cruel venom of asps.

³³Nende vein on lohemürk, rästikute ohtlik mürk.

³⁴Is not this laid up in store with me, and sealed up among my treasures?

³⁴Eks see ole talletatud minu juures, pitseriga suletud minu varakambris?

³⁵To me belongeth vengeance and recompence; their foot shall slide in due time: for the day of their calamity is at hand, and the things that shall come upon them make haste.

³⁵Minu käes on kättemaks ja tasumine ajaks, mil nende jalg vääratab. Jah, nende õnnetuse päev on ligidal ja mis neile on valmistatud, tõttab tulema.

³⁶For the LORD shall judge his people, and repent himself for his servants, when he seeth that their power is gone, and there is none shut up, or left.

³⁶Sest Issand tahab mõista õigust oma rahvale ja halastada oma sulaste peale, kui ta näeb, et nende jõud on kadunud ja pole jäänud orja ega vaba.

³⁷And he shall say, Where are their gods, their rock in whom they trusted,

³⁷Siis ta ütleb: Kus on nende jumalad, kalju, mille peal nad pelgupaika otsisid,

³⁸Which did eat the fat of their sacrifices, and drank the wine of their drink offerings? let them rise up and help you, and be your protection.

³⁸kes sõid nende tapaohvrite rasva ja jõid nende joogiohvrite veini? Tõusku nad nüüd üles ja aidaku teid, olgu nad teile varjupaigaks!

³⁹See now that I, even I, am he, and there is no god with me: I kill, and I make alive; I wound, and I heal: neither is there any that can deliver out of my hand.

³⁹Nähke nüüd, et see olen mina, ainult mina, ega ole ühtki jumalat minu kõrval! Mina surman ja teen elavaks, mina purustan ja mina parandan ega ole kedagi, kes päästaks minu käest.

⁴⁰For I lift up my hand to heaven, and say, I live for ever.

⁴⁰Sest ma tõstan oma käe taeva poole ja ütlen: Nii tõesti, kui ma igavesti elan:

⁴¹If I whet my glittering sword, and mine hand take hold on judgment; I will render vengeance to mine enemies, and will reward them that hate me.

⁴¹kui ma olen ihunud oma välkuva mõõga ja mu käsi hakkab kohut pidama, siis ma maksan kätte oma vaenlastele ja tasun neile, kes mind vihkavad.

⁴²I will make mine arrows drunk with blood, and my sword shall devour flesh; and that with the blood of the slain and of the captives, from the beginning of revenges upon the enemy.

⁴²Ma lasen oma nooled joobuda verest ja mu mõõk hakkab õgima liha, mahalöödute ja vangide verd, vaenlaspealikute päid.

⁴³Rejoice, O ye nations, with his people: for he will avenge the blood of his servants, and will render vengeance to his adversaries, and will be merciful unto his land, and to his people.

⁴³Ülistage, paganad, tema rahvast! Sest ta maksab kätte oma sulaste vere eest, tasub oma vastastele ja toimetab lepitust oma maale, oma rahvale.'

⁴⁴And Moses came and spake all the words of this song in the ears of the people, he, and Hoshea the son of Nun.

⁴⁴Ja Mooses tuli ning rääkis kõik selle laulu sõnad rahva kuuldes, tema ja Joosua, Nuuni poeg.

⁴⁵And Moses made an end of speaking all these words to all Israel:

⁴⁵Kui Mooses oli rääkinud kõik need sõnad kogu Iisraelile,

⁴⁶And he said unto them, Set your hearts unto all the words which I testify among you this day, which ye shall command your children to observe to do, all the words of this law.

⁴⁶siis ta ütles neile: 'Võtke südamesse kõik need sõnad, mis ma täna teile kordan, mis te peate andma käsuna oma lastele, et nad teeksid hoolsasti selle Seaduse kõigi sõnade järgi!

⁴⁷For it is not a vain thing for you; because it is your life: and through this thing ye shall prolong your days in the land, whither ye go over Jordan to possess it.

⁴⁷Sest see ei ole tühine sõna, mis teile korda ei lähe, vaid see on teie elu, ja selle sõna läbi te pikendate oma päevi sellel maal, kuhu te lähete üle Jordani, et seda pärida.'

⁴⁸And the LORD spake unto Moses that selfsame day, saying,

⁴⁸Ja Issand rääkis Moosesega veel selsamal päeval, öeldes:

⁴⁹Get thee up into this mountain Abarim, unto mount Nebo, which is in the land of Moab, that is over against Jericho; and behold the land of Canaan, which I give unto the children of Israel for a possession:

⁴⁹'Mine üles siia Abarimi mäele, Nebo mäele, mis on Moabimaal Jeeriko kohal, ja vaata Kaananimaad, mille ma annan Iisraeli lastele päranduseks!

⁵⁰And die in the mount whither thou goest up, and be gathered unto thy people; as Aaron thy brother died in mount Hor, and was gathered unto his people:

⁵⁰Siis sa sured seal mäe peal, kuhu sa üles lähed, ja sind koristatakse oma rahva juurde, nagu suri su vend Aaron Hoori mäel ja koristati oma rahva juurde,

⁵¹Because ye trespassed against me among the children of Israel at the waters of MeribahKadesh, in the wilderness of Zin; because ye sanctified me not in the midst of the children of Israel.

⁵¹sellepärast et te ei olnud truud minule Iisraeli laste keskel Meriba vee juures Kaadesis, Siini kõrbes, sellepärast et te mind ei pidanud pühaks Iisraeli laste keskel.

⁵²Yet thou shalt see the land before thee; but thou shalt not go thither unto the land which I give the children of Israel.

⁵²Sa näed küll eemalt seda maad, aga sa ei pääse sinna, maale, mille ma annan Iisraeli lastele.'
