< Isaiah 19 >

1 The burden of Egypt. “Behold, the LORD rides on a swift cloud, and comes to Egypt. The idols of Egypt will tremble at his presence; and the heart of Egypt will melt within it.
Raajii Gibxiin mormu: kunoo Waaqayyo duumessa saffisaa yaabbatee gara Gibxi dhufaa jira. Waaqonni Gibxi tolfamoon fuula isaa duratti hollatu; garaan warra Gibxis isaan keessatti baqa.
2 I will stir up the Egyptians against the Egyptians, and they will fight everyone against his brother, and everyone against his neighbor; city against city, and kingdom against kingdom.
“Ani warra Gibxi walitti nan naqa; obboleessi obboleessa isaa, ollaan ollaa isaa, magaalaan tokko magaalaa kaan, mootummaanis mootummaa kaan lola.
3 The spirit of the Egyptians will fail within them. I will destroy their counsel. They will seek the idols, the charmers, those who have familiar spirits, and the wizards.
Hafuurri warra Gibxi isaan keessatti jeeqama; anis karoora isaanii nan fashaleessa; isaanis waaqota tolfamoo fi hafuurota warra duʼanii, ilaaltotaa fi eker dubbistoota gorsa gaafatu.
4 I will give over the Egyptians into the hand of a cruel lord. A fierce king will rule over them,” says the Lord, GOD of Armies.
Anis dabarsee warra Gibxi humna gooftaa garaa jabaatu tokkootti nan kenna; mootiin hamaan tokkos isaan ni bulcha” jedha Gooftaan, Waaqayyoon Waan Hunda Dandaʼu.
5 The waters will fail from the sea, and the river will be wasted and become dry.
Bishaanonni galaanaa ni gogu; lagni isaas ni hirʼata; ni gogas.
6 The rivers will become foul. The streams of Egypt will be diminished and dried up. The reeds and flags will wither away.
Burqaawwan isaa ni ajaaʼu; lageen Gibxiis qalʼatanii gogu. Shambaqqoo fi dhallaadduun ni coollagu;
7 The meadows by the Nile, by the brink of the Nile, and all the sown fields of the Nile, will become dry, be driven away, and be no more.
biqiltuuwwan ededa Abbayyaa, kanneen qarqara lagichaa jiranis ni coollagu. Wanni laga Abbayyaa biratti facaafame hundi ni goga; bubbeedhaan fudhatama; deebiʼees hin argamu.
8 The fishermen will lament, and all those who fish in the Nile will mourn, and those who spread nets on the waters will languish.
Qurxummii qabdoonni, warri hokkoo Abbayyaa keessa buusan hundi aadanii booʼu; warri kiyyoo bishaanitti darbatanis ni dadhabu.
9 Moreover those who work in combed flax, and those who weave white cloth, will be confounded.
Warri quncee talbaa iddame qopheessan, wayyaa dhooftonnis abdii kutatu.
10 The pillars will be broken in pieces. All those who work for hire will be grieved in soul.
Warri wayyaa dhaʼan mataa buusu; warri mindaadhaan hojjetan hundis ni gaddu.
11 The princes of Zoan are utterly foolish. The counsel of the wisest counselors of Pharaoh has become stupid. How do you say to Pharaoh, “I am the son of the wise, the son of ancient kings”?
Qondaaltonni Zooʼaan gowwoota; gorsitoonni Faraʼoon ogeeyyiinis gorsa faayidaa hin qabne kennu. Isin akkamitti Faraʼooniin, “Ani namoota ogeeyyii keessaa tokkoo dha; ani barataa mootota durii ti” jechuu dandeessu?
12 Where then are your wise men? Let them tell you now; and let them know what the LORD of Armies has purposed concerning Egypt.
Namoonni keessan ogeeyyiin amma eessa jiru? Mee isaan waan Waaqayyoon Waan Hunda Dandaʼu Gibxiin mormuudhaan karoorfate; isinitti haa himan; haa beeksisanis.
13 The princes of Zoan have become fools. The princes of Memphis are deceived. They have caused Egypt to go astray, those who are the cornerstone of her tribes.
Qondaaltonni Zooʼaan gowwoota taʼaniiru; bulchitoonni Memfiis gowwoomfamaniiru; gurguddoonni saba ishee Gibxiin karaa irraa jalʼisaniiru.
14 The LORD has mixed a spirit of perverseness in the middle of her; and they have caused Egypt to go astray in all of its works, like a drunken man staggers in his vomit.
Waaqayyo hafuura nama hadoochu isaanitti dhangalaaseera; isaan akkuma machaaʼaan tokko hoqqisaa gatantaru sana biyya Gibxi waan isheen hojjettu hunda keessatti gatantarsan.
15 Neither shall there be any work for Egypt, which head or tail, palm branch or rush, may do.
Wanni mataan yookaan eegeen, dameen meexxii yookaan shambaqqoon, Gibxiif gochuu dandaʼan tokko iyyuu hin jiru.
16 In that day the Egyptians will be like women. They will tremble and fear because of the shaking of the LORD of Armies’s hand, which he shakes over them.
Bara sana warri Gibxi akka dubartii taʼu. Harka ol kaʼe kan Waaqayyoon Waan Hunda Dandaʼu isaanitti ol fudhatu sana arganii sodaan ni hollatu.
17 The land of Judah will become a terror to Egypt. Everyone to whom mention is made of it will be afraid, because of the plans of the LORD of Armies, which he determines against it.
Biyyi Yihuudaas warra Gibxi ni naasisa; namni maqaan Yihuudaa biratti dhaʼamu hundinuu sababii waan Waaqayyoon Waan Hunda Dandaʼu isaanitti karoorfachaa jiru sanaatiif ni naʼa.
18 In that day, there will be five cities in the land of Egypt that speak the language of Canaan, and swear to the LORD of Armies. One will be called “The city of destruction.”
Gaafas biyya Gibxi keessatti magaalaawwan shan afaan Kanaʼaan dubbatu; isaanis Waaqayyoo Waan Hunda Dandaʼuuf amanamoo taʼuuf ni kakatu. Isaan keessaa tokko Magaalaa Badiisaa jedhamti.
19 In that day, there will be an altar to the LORD in the middle of the land of Egypt, and a pillar to the LORD at its border.
Gaafas wiirtuu Gibxi keessatti iddoon aarsaa tokko Waaqayyoof ni hojjetama; daangaa biyyattii irrattis siidaan tokkoo Waaqayyoof ni dhaabama.
20 It will be for a sign and for a witness to the LORD of Armies in the land of Egypt; for they will cry to the LORD because of oppressors, and he will send them a savior and a defender, and he will deliver them.
Kunis biyya Gibxi keessatti Waaqayyoo Waan Hunda Dandaʼuuf mallattoo fi dhuga baʼumsa taʼa. Yeroo isaan sababii cunqursitoota isaaniitiif gara Waaqayyootti iyyatanitti, inni fayyisaa fi baraaraa tokko ergeefii isaan oolcha.
21 The LORD will be known to Egypt, and the Egyptians will know the LORD in that day. Yes, they will worship with sacrifice and offering, and will vow a vow to the LORD, and will perform it.
Kanaafuu Waaqayyo warra Gibxitti of beeksisa; isaanis gaafas Waaqayyoon ni beeku. Isaanis qalmaa fi kennaa midhaaniitiin waaqeffatu; Waaqayyoofis ni wareegu; wareega sanas ni baafatu.
22 The LORD will strike Egypt, striking and healing. They will return to the LORD, and he will be entreated by them, and will heal them.
Waaqayyo biyya Gibxi ni rukuta; rukutees ni fayyisa. Isaan gara Waaqayyootti ni deebiʼu; innis kadhannaa isaaniitiif deebii kennee isaan fayyisa.
23 In that day there will be a highway out of Egypt to Assyria, and the Assyrian shall come into Egypt, and the Egyptian into Assyria; and the Egyptians will worship with the Assyrians.
Gaafas Gibxii hamma Asooritti karaa guddaa tokkotu jiraata. Warri Asoor gara Gibxi, warri Gibxis gara Asoor ni dhaqu. Warri Gibxii fi warri Asoor walii wajjin ni waaqeffatu.
24 In that day, Israel will be the third with Egypt and with Assyria, a blessing within the earth;
Israaʼel bara sana keessa Gibxii fi Asooritti dabalamtee sadaffaa taati; kunis lafa irratti eebba taʼa.
25 because the LORD of Armies has blessed them, saying, “Blessed be Egypt my people, Assyria the work of my hands, and Israel my inheritance.”
Waaqayyoon Waan Hunda Dandaʼus, “Gibxi sabni koo, Asoor hojiin harka kootii fi Israaʼel dhaalli koo haa eebbifaman” jedhee isaan eebbisa.
