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

¹"Dengarlah, hai langit, aku ingin berbicara; hai bumi, pasanglah telinga!

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:

²Semoga ajaranku turun seperti hujan, dan kata-kataku menetes seperti embun, laksana hujan rintik-rintik di atas rerumputan, dan hujan deras di atas tanam-tanaman.

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

³Aku akan memuji nama TUHAN. Wartakanlah kebesaran Allah kita!

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.

⁴TUHAN Pembelamu yang perkasa, karya-Nya sempurna, dan semua jalan-Nya adil. Allahmu setia, tak ada kecurangan pada-Nya, Ia melakukan yang baik dan benar.

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

⁵Tetapi kamu adalah bangsa yang tidak setia, dan tidak pantas lagi menjadi umat-Nya, bangsa yang penuh kecurangan dan dosa.

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?

⁶Begitukah kamu balas kebaikan TUHAN, hai orang-orang bodoh dan tidak berakal? Bukankah Ia Bapamu, Penciptamu, yang menjadikan kamu satu bangsa?

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.

⁷Ingatlah akan zaman dahulu, perhatikan zaman angkatan-angkatan yang lalu. Tanyakanlah kepada orang tuamu, supaya mereka memberitahukannya kepadamu.

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.

⁸Ketika Yang Mahatinggi membagikan tanah, setiap bangsa ditentukan wilayahnya dengan suatu ilah sebagai penguasa.

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

⁹Tetapi keturunan Yakub ini dipilih TUHAN bagi diri-Nya sendiri.

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.

¹⁰Ia mendapati mereka sedang mengembara di tempat yang sepi di padang belantara. Lalu Ia melindungi dan memelihara mereka dan menjaga mereka seperti milik-Nya.

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

¹¹Seperti burung elang yang mengajar anaknya terbang menangkapnya di sayapnya yang terbentang dan mendukungnya di atas kepak-kepaknya,

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

¹²demikian TUHAN sendiri memimpin umat-Nya, tak ada ilah asing menyertai dia.

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;

¹³Ia membuat mereka menguasai gunung-gunung; mereka makan hasil ladang-ladang dan minum madu liar dari bukit batu. Mereka mendapat minyak dari pohon zaitun yang tumbuh di tanah berbatu.

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.

¹⁴Sapi dan kambing domba mereka menghasilkan banyak susu; ternak mereka paling bermutu, gandum dan air anggur mereka paling baik.

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.

¹⁵Umat TUHAN menjadi kaya, tetapi suka berontak, mereka gemuk-gemuk, kenyang makanan. Lalu mereka meninggalkan Allah, Penciptanya dan menolak Penyelamatnya yang perkasa.

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

¹⁶Mereka menyembah berhala, sehingga TUHAN cemburu, kemarahan-Nya bangkit karena kejahatan itu.

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.

¹⁷Mereka mempersembahkan kurban kepada roh-roh jahat yang bukan Allah, kepada ilah-ilah yang tidak mereka kenal, ilah-ilah baru yang tidak ditakuti leluhur mereka.

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

¹⁸Mereka melalaikan Penyelamat mereka yang perkasa, melupakan Allah mereka yang memberi kehidupan.

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

¹⁹Melihat hal itu, TUHAN menjadi marah, dan menolak anak-anak-Nya.

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.

²⁰Kata-Nya, 'Aku tidak mau menolong mereka lagi; biar Kulihat bagaimana kesudahan mereka. Sebab bangsa itu keras kepala dan sama sekali tidak setia.

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.

²¹Mereka membuat Aku cemburu kepada yang bukan Allah, dan marah kepada patung berhala mereka. Maka Kubuat umat-Ku cemburu kepada yang bukan bangsa, dan marah kepada bangsa yang dungu.

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.

²²Kemarahan-Ku akan berkobar seperti api yang membakar sampai ke dunia orang mati. Api itu membakar bumi dan segala hasilnya, dan gunung-gunung sampai ke akar-akarnya.

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

²³Terus-menerus Kudatangkan malapetaka, Kutembakkan semua panah-Ku kepada mereka.

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.

²⁴Mereka akan mati karena demam dan kelaparan, dan karena penyakit yang mengerikan. Kubiarkan mereka diterkam binatang buas, dan dipagut ular berbisa.

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

²⁵Peperangan membawa maut di jalan-jalan; kengerian menimpa orang-orang di rumah. Orang muda dan gadis remaja akan dibinasakan, juga anak bayi dan orang lanjut usia.

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

²⁶Aku ingin melenyapkan mereka sama sekali, supaya mereka tidak diingat lagi.

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.

²⁷Tetapi Aku tak mau musuh Israel berbangga; jangan-jangan mereka salah sangka dan berkata bahwa mereka mengalahkan umat-Ku,' padahal Akulah yang melakukannya.

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

²⁸Israel suatu bangsa yang tidak punya pertimbangan; pengertian tak ada pada mereka.

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

²⁹Sekiranya mereka bijaksana, mereka akan mengerti, dan memikirkan kesudahan mereka.

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?

³⁰Bagaimana seorang dapat mengejar seribu orang, dan dua orang membuat sepuluh ribu orang lari? TUHAN, Allah mereka, telah menjual mereka; mereka telah ditinggalkan oleh Allah yang perkasa.

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

³¹Musuh Israel tahu bahwa pelindung mereka tidak seperti Allah pelindung Israel.

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:

³²Sebab mereka jahat seperti Sodom dan Gomora, seperti pohon anggur yang pahit dan beracun buahnya.

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

³³Air anggur mereka adalah racun ular berbisa.

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

³⁴TUHAN ingat perbuatan musuh umat-Nya dan akan menghukum mereka pada waktunya.

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.

³⁵TUHAN akan membalas dan menghukum mereka, tak lama lagi mereka jatuh binasa; saat kehancuran mereka segera tiba.

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.

³⁶TUHAN akan menyelamatkan umat-Nya dan mengasihani hamba-hamba-Nya, bila Ia melihat mereka tak berdaya dan sudah kehabisan tenaga.

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

³⁷Maka TUHAN akan bertanya kepada umat-Nya, 'Di mana ilah-ilah kuat yang kamu andalkan?'

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.

³⁸Mereka makan lemak yang kamu persembahkan, dan minum air anggur yang kamu kurbankan. Suruhlah mereka datang menolong kamu, biarlah mereka menjadi perlindunganmu.

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.

³⁹Lihatlah, Aku Allah Yang Esa, tak ada Allah kecuali Aku. Aku membunuh dan menghidupkan, melukai dan menyembuhkan. Bila Aku bertindak, tak seorang pun dapat melawan.

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

⁴⁰Demi Aku sendiri, Allah yang hidup, Kuangkat tangan-Ku dan bersumpah:

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.

⁴¹Aku akan mengasah pedang-Ku yang berkilauan, dan menjalankan penghukuman. Kubalas semua lawan-Ku dan Kuhukum semua yang membenci Aku.

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.

⁴²Panah-panah-Ku akan dilumuri darah mereka; semua yang menentang Aku Kubunuh dengan pedang-Ku. Tidak Kubiarkan siapa pun melawan Aku; orang tahanan dan yang luka-luka mesti mati juga.

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.

⁴³Hai bangsa-bangsa, pujilah umat TUHAN, sebab TUHAN menghukum semua yang membunuh mereka. Ia membalas dendam kepada musuh-Nya tetapi mengampuni dosa umat-Nya."

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

⁴⁴Musa dan Yosua anak Nun mengucapkan nyanyian itu, sehingga seluruh bangsa Israel dapat mendengarnya.

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

⁴⁵Sehabis menyampaikan ajaran-ajaran TUHAN kepada bangsa Israel,

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.

⁴⁶Musa berkata, "Perhatikanlah semua perintah yang saya berikan kepadamu hari ini. Ajarkanlah kepada anak-anakmu, supaya mereka dengan setia melakukan semua hukum TUHAN.

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.

⁴⁷Ajaran itu bukanlah kata-kata kosong, melainkan hidupmu. Taatilah semua perintah itu, supaya kamu panjang umur di negeri yang tak lama lagi kamu duduki di seberang Sungai Yordan."

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

⁴⁸Pada hari itu juga TUHAN berkata kepada Musa,

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"Pergilah ke Pegunungan Abarim di negeri Moab di seberang kota Yerikho. Lalu naiklah ke Gunung Nebo dan pandanglah tanah Kanaan yang tak lama lagi Kuserahkan kepada bangsa Israel.

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:

⁵⁰Engkau akan meninggal di atas gunung itu, seperti Harun saudaramu meninggal di Gunung Hor.

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.

⁵¹Kamu berdua tidak setia kepada-Ku dan tidak menghormati Aku di depan bangsa Israel waktu kamu berada di mata air Meriba, dekat kota Kades, di padang gurun Zin.

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

⁵²Karena itu engkau tak boleh masuk ke negeri yang Kuberikan kepada bangsa Israel; engkau hanya boleh memandangnya dari jauh."
