1 A ad ugu gabya Ilaaha xooggeenna ah, Oo farxad ugu qayliya Ilaaha Yacquub.

Sing for joy to God our strength! Call out for joy to the God of Jacob!

2 S abuurka kor u qaada, oo waxaad halkan keentaan dafka, Iyo kataaradda lagu farxo, iyo shareeradda.

Sing a song, beat the timbrel. Play the sweet-sounding harps.

3 B uunka afuufa markay bishu dhalato, Iyo markuu dayaxu caddo buuxda yahay, iyo maalinta iiddeenna quduuska ah.

Blow the horn at the new moon, at the full moon on the day of our special supper.

4 W aayo, taasu qaynuun bay u tahay reer binu Israa'iil, Waana amar ka yimid Ilaaha Yacquub.

For this is a Law for Israel, a Law of the God of Jacob.

5 O o wuxuu reer Yuusuf dhexdooda ka dhigay markhaati, Markii uu dalkii Masar ku soo baxay, Halkaas oo aan ka maqlay af aanan aqoon.

He made it a Law for Joseph, when he went through the land of Egypt. I heard a language that I did not know:

6 G arbihiisa waxaan ka qaaday culaabtii saarnayd, Gacmihiisana waxaa laga xoreeyey dambiishii.

“I took the load off his shoulders. His hands were set free from the basket.

7 W aad ii dhawaaqatay markii dhib kuu yimid, oo anna waan ku soo samatabbixiyey, Waxaan kaaga jawaabay onkodka meeshiisa qarsoon, Oo waxaan kugu tijaabiyey biyihii Meriibaah. (Selaah)

You called in your trouble, and I took you out of it. I answered you in the hiding place of thunder. I tested you at the waters of Meribah.

8 D adkaygiiyow, bal i maqla, Oo anna waan idiin digi doonaa, Reer binu Israa'iilow, bal haddaad i maqli lahaydeen!

Hear, O My people, and I will tell you what to do. O Israel, if you would listen to Me!

9 W aa inaan ilaah qalaad idinku dhex jirin, Oo waa inaydaan innaba ilaah qalaad caabudin.

Let there be no strange god among you. Do not worship any false god.

10 A nigu waxaan ahay Rabbiga Ilaahaaga ah, Oo kaa soo bixiyey dalkii Masar, Afkaaga aad u kala qaad, oo anna waan buuxin doonaa.

I, the Lord, am your God. I brought you out of the land of Egypt. Open your mouth wide and I will fill it.

11 L aakiinse dadkaygii ma ay dhegaysan codkaygii, Oo reer binu Israa'iilna ima aqbalin.

“But My people did not listen to My voice. And Israel did not obey Me.

12 S idaas daraaddeed waxaan u daayay inay ku socdaan madaxadayggooda. Si ay taladooda ugu socdaan.

So I let them follow the desires of their sinful hearts. They followed their own plans.

13 B al may dadkaygu i dhegaystaan, Oo reer binu Israa'iil bal may jidkayga ku socdaan!

If only My people would listen to Me! If only Israel would follow My ways!

14 O o waxaan haddiiba jebin lahaa cadaawayaashooda, Oo gacantaydana waan ku jeedin lahaa colkooda.

I would hurry to crush those who fight against them. I would turn My hand against those who hate them.

15 K uwa Rabbiga necebu waxay hoos geli lahaayeen isaga, Laakiinse wakhtigoodu weligiis wuu waari lahaa.

Those who hate the Lord would pretend to obey Him. And their punishment would last forever.

16 O o weliba wuxuu iyaga ku quudin lahaa sarreenka ugu wanaagsan, Oo waxaan ka dhergin lahaa malabka dhagaxa ka soo baxa.

But I would feed you with the best of grain. And I would fill you with honey from the rock.”
