< Isaiah 22 >

1 The burden of the valley of vision. What ails you now, that you have all gone up to the housetops?
Raajii waaʼee Sulula Mulʼataa: Amma maaltu isin rakkisee isin hundi fiixee manaatti ol baatan?
2 You that are full of shouting, a tumultuous city, a joyous town, your slain are not slain with the sword, neither are they dead in battle.
Yaa magaalaa wacaan guutamte, yaa magaalaa jeeqamtuu fi fandalaltuu, namoonni si jalaa qalaman goraadeedhaan hin ajjeefamne yookaan waraana keessatti hin dhumne.
3 All your rulers fled away together. They were bound by the archers. All who were found by you were bound together. They fled far away.
Hooggantoonni kee hundi walumaan baqatan; isaan utuma xiyya hin darbatin qabaman. Isin utuma diinni fagoo jiruu baqattan iyyuu warri qabamtan hundi walumaan mana hidhaatti galfamtaniirtu.
4 Therefore I said, “Look away from me. I will weep bitterly. Do not labor to comfort me for the destruction of the daughter of my people.
Kanaafuu ani, “Ana irraa garagalaa; ani hiqqifadhee nan booʼa. Badiisa saba koo irratti na jajjabeessuu hin yaalinaa” nan jedhe.
5 For it is a day of confusion, and of treading down, and of perplexity from the Lord, GOD of Armies, in the valley of vision, a breaking down of the walls, and a crying to the mountains.”
Gooftaan, Waaqayyoon Waan Hunda Dandaʼu, Sulula Mulʼataa keessatti, guyyaa jeequmsaa, dhidhiitamuutii fi burjaajii, akkasumas guyyaa itti dallaa diiguutii fi tulluuwwanittis iyyuu qaba.
6 Elam carried his quiver, with chariots of men and horsemen; and Kir uncovered the shield.
Eelaam manʼee xiyyaa qabattee gaariiwwanii fi abbootii fardaa fudhattee baati; Qiiris gaachana ishee qabatti.
7 Your choicest valleys were full of chariots, and the horsemen set themselves in array at the gate.
Sululawwan kee filatamoon gaariiwwaniin guutamaniiru; abbootiin fardaas karra magaalattii irratti ramadamaniiru.
8 He took away the covering of Judah; and you looked in that day to the armor in the house of the forest.
Gooftaan ittisa Yihuudaa irraa mulqeera. Atis gaafas miʼa lolaa kan Masaraa Bosonaa keessa jiru sana abdatta.
9 You saw the breaches of David’s city, that they were many; and you gathered together the waters of the lower pool.
Dallaan Magaalaa Daawit karaa baayʼee akka urame argitaniirtu; Haroo Gad aanaa keessattis bishaan kuufattaniirtu.
10 You counted the houses of Jerusalem, and you broke down the houses to fortify the wall.
Isin manneen Yerusaalem lakkooftan; dallaa ishee dhagaa jabeessuuf jettaniis manneen sana diigdan.
11 You also made a reservoir between the two walls for the water of the old pool. But you did not look to him who had done this, neither did you have respect for him who planned it long ago.
Bishaan Haroo Moofaatiif dallaa lamaan gidduutti kuusaa bishaanii tolchitan; garuu isin gara Isa waan sana hojjetee hin ilaalle; yookaan Isa bara dheeraan dura waan sana karoorseef ulfina hin kennine.
12 In that day, the Lord, GOD of Armies, called to weeping, to mourning, to baldness, and to dressing in sackcloth;
Gooftaan, Waaqayyoon Waan Hunda Dandaʼu, akka ati boossee wawwaattuuf, akka ati rifeensa mataa keetii of irraa cirtee wayyaa gaddaa uffatuuf guyyaa sana si waame.
13 and behold, there is joy and gladness, killing cattle and killing sheep, eating meat and drinking wine: “Let’s eat and drink, for tomorrow we will die.”
Qooda kanaa garuu gammachuu fi fandalaluu, loon gorraʼuu fi hoolota qaluu, foon nyaachuu fi daadhii wayinii dhuguutu jira! Isin, “Kottaa ni nyaannaa; ni dhugnas; bor ni duunaatii!” jettu.
14 The LORD of Armies revealed himself in my ears, “Surely this iniquity will not be forgiven you until you die,” says the Lord, GOD of Armies.
Waaqayyoon Waan Hunda Dandaʼu utuma gurri koo dhagaʼuu waan kana naa ibse: “Hamma guyyaa duʼa keessaniitti cubbuun kun isin irraa hin haqamu” jedha Gooftaan, Waaqayyoon Waan Hunda Dandaʼu.
15 The Lord, GOD of Armies says, “Go, get yourself to this treasurer, even to Shebna, who is over the house, and say,
Gooftaan, Waaqayyoon Waan Hunda Dandaʼu akkana jedha: “Dhaqiitii itti gaafatamaa kanaan, Shebnaa, bulchaa masaraa mootummaatiin akkana jedhi:
16 ‘What are you doing here? Who has you here, that you have dug out a tomb here?’ Cutting himself out a tomb on high, chiseling a habitation for himself in the rock!”
Ati maal asii hojjetta? Akka ati iddoo kanatti iddoo awwaalaa qopheeffattu, akka iddoo ol kaʼaa irratti boolla awwaala keetii qotattu, akka kattaa keessatti iddoo boqonnaa keetii tolchattu eenyutu eeyyama siif kenne?
17 Behold, the LORD will overcome you and hurl you away violently. Yes, he will grasp you firmly.
“Yaa nama jabaa kunoo, Waaqayyo jabeessee qabee si darbachuuf jira.
18 He will surely wind you around and around, and throw you like a ball into a large country. There you will die, and there the chariots of your glory will be, you disgrace of your lord’s house.
Inni akkuma kubbaa furuursee biyya balʼaa tokko keessa si buusa. Yaa salphina mana gooftaa keetii, ati achitti duuta; gaariiwwan kee mimmiidhagoonis achitti hafu!
19 I will thrust you from your office. You will be pulled down from your station.
Ani aangoo kee irraa sin buusa; atis taayitaa kee irraa ni ariʼamta.
20 It will happen in that day that I will call my servant Eliakim the son of Hilkiah,
“Ani gaafas garbicha koo Eliiyaaqiimin ilma Hilqiyaa nan waama.
21 and I will clothe him with your robe, and strengthen him with your belt. I will commit your government into his hand; and he will be a father to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and to the house of Judah.
Ani uffata kee isatti nan uffisa; sabbata kee mudhii isaatti nan hidha; aangoo kees dabarsee isaaf nan kenna. Inni warra Yerusaalem keessa jiraatanii fi mana Yihuudaatiif abbaa ni taʼa.
22 I will lay the key of David’s house on his shoulder. He will open, and no one will shut. He will shut, and no one will open.
Ani furtuu mana Daawit gatiittii isaa irra nan kaaʼa; waan inni banu namni tokko iyyuu cufuu hin dandaʼu; waan inni cufus namni tokko iyyuu banuu hin dandaʼu.
23 I will fasten him like a nail in a sure place. He will be for a throne of glory to his father’s house.
Ani akkuma fannoo waa itti fannisan tokkootti iddoo jabaa irra isa nan dhaaba; innis mana abbaa isaatiif teessoo ulfinaa ni taʼa.
24 They will hang on him all the glory of his father’s house, the offspring and the issue, every small vessel, from the cups even to all the pitchers.
Isaanis kabaja mana abbaa isaa hunda, ijoollee isaatii fi ijoollee ijoollee isaa, miʼa xixinnaa kan waciitiidhaa jalqabee hamma okkoteetti jiru hunda isatti fannisu.”
25 “In that day,” says the LORD of Armies, “the nail that was fastened in a sure place will give way. It will be cut down and fall. The burden that was on it will be cut off, for the LORD has spoken it.”
Waaqayyoon Waan Hunda Dandaʼu akkana jedha; “Gaafas qofoon iddoo jabaa dhaabame sun ni buqqaʼa; muramee lafa buʼa; baʼaan isatti fannifame sun harcaʼee caccaba.” Waaqayyo waan kana dubbateeraatii.
