< Isaiah 56 >

1 Thus says Jehovah, Keep ye justice, and do righteousness. For my salvation is near to come, and my righteousness to be revealed.
Waaqayyo akkana jedha: Sababii fayyisuun koo dhiʼaatee fi qajeelummaan koo dafee mulʼatuuf, “Murtii qajeelaa eegaa; waan qajeelaas hojjedhaa.
2 Blessed is the man who does this, and the son of man who holds it fast, who keeps the sabbath from profaning it, and keeps his hand from doing any evil.
Namni waan kana hojjetu, kan waan kanattis cimu, kan Sanbata utuu hin xureessin eeguu fi waan hamaa kam iyyuu hojjechuu irraa harka isaa eeggatu eebbifamaa dha.”
3 Neither let the foreigner, who has joined himself to Jehovah, speak, saying, Jehovah will surely separate me from his people, nor let the eunuch say, Behold, I am a dry tree.
Alagaan Waaqayyotti cichee tokko, “Waaqayyo dhugumaan saba isaa irraa addaan na baasa” hin jedhin. Xuʼaashiin kam iyyuus, “Ani mukuma gogaadha” ofiin hin jedhin.
4 For thus says Jehovah of the eunuchs who keep my sabbaths, and choose the things that please me, and hold fast my covenant:
Waaqayyo akkana jedhaatii: “Xuʼaashiiwwan Sanbatoota koo eegan, kanneen waan na gammachiisu filatanii fi kakuu koo jabeessanii eeganiif,
5 To them I will give in my house and within my walls a memorial and a name better than of sons and of daughters. I will give them an everlasting name, that shall not be cut off.
ani mana qulqullummaa kootii fi dallaa isaa keessatti yaadannoo fi maqaa ilmaanii fi intallan caalu tokko nan kennaaf; ani maqaa bara baraa kan hin haqamne isaaniif nan kenna.
6 Also the foreigners who join themselves to Jehovah, to minister to him, and to love the name of Jehovah, to be his servants, everyone who keeps the sabbath from profaning it, and holds fast my covenant,
Alagoota isa tajaajiluuf, maqaa Waaqayyoo jaallachuuf, isa waaqeffachuuf Waaqayyotti cichan kanneen Sanbata utuu hin xureessin eeganii fi kakuu koos cimsanii eegan hunda,
7 even them I will bring to my holy mountain, and make them joyful in my house of prayer. Their burnt offerings and their sacrifices shall be accepted upon my altar, for my house shall be called a house of prayer for all peoples.
ani gara tulluu koo qulqulluutti isaan nan fida; mana kadhannaa koo keessattis gammachuu isaaniif nan kenna. Aarsaan isaanii kan gubamuu fi qalmi, iddoo aarsaa koo irratti fudhatama ni argata; manni koo saboota hundaaf, mana sagadaa jedhamee waamamaatii.”
8 The lord Jehovah, who gathers the outcasts of Israel, says, Yet I will gather to him, besides his own who are gathered.
Waaqayyo Gooftaan, inni Israaʼeloota bittinnaaʼan walitti qabu sun akkana jedha: “Ani warra duraan walitti qabaman biratti, warra kaanis gara isaaniitti walitti nan qaba.”
9 All ye beasts of the field, come to devour, yea, all ye beasts in the forest.
Bineensonni dirree hundi, bineensonni bosonaa hundis kottaatii itti gaggabaa nyaadhaa!
10 His watchmen are blind. They are all without knowledge. They are all mute dogs. They cannot bark, dreaming, lying down, loving to slumber.
Eegdonni Israaʼel jaamota, isaan hundi beekumsa hin qaban; hundi isaanii saroota duudaa dha; dutuus hin dandaʼan; isaan ciisanii abjootu; rafuus ni jaallatu.
11 Yea, the dogs are greedy; they can never have enough. And these are shepherds who cannot understand. They have all turned to their own way, each one to his gain, from every quarter.
Isaan saroota albaadheyyii dha; nyaataniis hin quufan. Isaan tiksoota hubannaa hin qabnee dha; hundi isaanii daandii ofii isaanii irra deemu; tokkoon tokkoon isaanii faayidaa ofii isaanii barbaadu.
12 Come ye, they say, I will fetch wine, and we will fill ourselves with strong drink. And tomorrow shall be as this day, great beyond measure.
Tokkoon tokkoon isaanii akkana jedhu; “Kottaa daadhii wayinii dhugnaa! Kottaa dhugaatii cimaa dhugnee quufnaa! Guyyaan borii akkuma harʼaa taʼa; yookaan caaluu iyyuu ni dandaʼa.”
