< Jeremiah 34 >
1 The word which came to Jeremiah from the LORD, when Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, with all his army, all the kingdoms of the earth that were under his dominion, and all the peoples, were fighting against Jerusalem and against all its cities, saying:
Yeroo Nebukadnezar mootichi Baabiloniitii fi loltoonni isaa hundi, mootummoonnii fi saboonni biyya inni bulchu keessa jiraatan hundi Yerusaalemii fi magaalaawwan naannoo ishee hunda lolaa turanitti dubbiin akkana jedhu tokko Waaqayyo biraa gara Ermiyaas dhufe;
2 “The LORD, the God of Israel, says, ‘Go, and speak to Zedekiah king of Judah, and tell him, the LORD says, “Behold, I will give this city into the hand of the king of Babylon and he will burn it with fire.
“Waaqayyo Waaqni Israaʼel akkana jedha: Gara Zedeqiyaa mooticha Yihuudaa dhaqiitii akkana jedhiin; ‘Waaqayyo akkana jedha: Ani magaalaa kana dabarsee mootii Baabilonitti nan kenna; innis ishee guba.
3 You will not escape out of his hand, but will surely be taken and delivered into his hand. Your eyes will see the eyes of the king of Babylon, and he will speak with you mouth to mouth. You will go to Babylon.”’
Ati dhugumaan qabamtee dabarfamtee isatti kennamta malee harka isaa jalaa hin miliqxu. Mootii Baabilon ijuma keetiin ni argita; innis kallattiin si wajjin ni dubbata. Atis Baabilonitti ni geeffamta.
4 “Yet hear the LORD’s word, O Zedekiah king of Judah. The LORD says concerning you, ‘You will not die by the sword.
“‘Taʼus yaa Zedeqiyaa mooticha Yihuudaa, ati dubbii Waaqayyoo dhagaʼi. Waaqayyo waaʼee kee akkana jedha: Ati goraadeen hin duutu;
5 You will die in peace; and with the burnings of your fathers, the former kings who were before you, so they will make a burning for you. They will lament you, saying, “Ah Lord!” for I have spoken the word,’ says the LORD.”
garuu nagumaan duuta. Namoonni akkuma ulfina awwaala abbootii keetii mootota siin duraatiif ibidda qabsiisan sana ulfina keetiif ibidda qabsiisanii, “Wayyoo yaa Gooftaa!” jedhanii booʼu. Ani mataan koo dubbii kana dubbadheeraatii, jedha Waaqayyo.’”
6 Then Jeremiah the prophet spoke all these words to Zedekiah king of Judah in Jerusalem,
Ermiyaas raajichi Yerusaalem keessatti waan kana hunda Zedeqiyaa mooticha Yihuudaatti hime;
7 when the king of Babylon’s army was fighting against Jerusalem and against all the cities of Judah that were left, against Lachish and against Azekah; for these alone remained of the cities of Judah as fortified cities.
yeroo sanatti loltoonni mootii Baabilon Yerusaalemii fi magaalaawwan Yihuudaa jechuunis Laakkiishii fi Azeeqaa lolaa turan. Magaalaawwan Yihuudaa kanneen dallaa jabaa qaban keessaa kanneen hafan isaanuma kana qofa turaniitii.
8 The word came to Jeremiah from the LORD, after King Zedekiah had made a covenant with all the people who were at Jerusalem, to proclaim liberty to them,
Erga Zedeqiyaa mootichi bilisummaa garbootaa labsuuf jedhee uummata Yerusaalem keessa jiraatu hunda wajjin kakuu galee booddee dubbiin tokko Waaqayyo biraa gara Ermiyaas dhufe.
9 that every man should let his male servant, and every man his female servant, who is a Hebrew or a Hebrewess, go free, that no one should make bondservants of them, of a Jew his brother.
Tokkoon tokkoo namaa garba isaa dhiiraa dubartii sanyii Ibrootaa taʼan bilisa baasuu qaba ture; namni kam iyyuu Yihuudii sanyii isaa taʼe tokko garbummaa keessatti hambisuu hin qabu.
10 All the princes and all the people obeyed who had entered into the covenant, that everyone should let his male servant and everyone his female servant go free, that no one should make bondservants of them any more. They obeyed and let them go,
Kanaafuu qondaaltonnii fi namoonni kakuu sana seenan hundi garboota isaanii dhiirotaa dubartii bilisa baasuu fi akka siʼachis isaan hin garboomfanne walii galan. Isaanis tole jedhanii jara bilisa baasan.
11 but afterwards they turned, and caused the servants and the handmaids whom they had let go free to return, and brought them into subjection for servants and for handmaids.
Ergasii garuu yaada isaanii geeddaratanii garboota bilisa baasanii turan sana deebifatanii amma illee garboomfatan.
12 Therefore the LORD’s word came to Jeremiah from the LORD, saying,
Ergasii dubbiin Waaqayyoo akkana jedhee gara Ermiyaas dhufe:
13 “The LORD, the God of Israel, says: ‘I made a covenant with your fathers in the day that I brought them out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage, saying:
“Waaqayyo Waaqni Israaʼel akkana jedha: Ani yeroon Gibxii biyya garbummaatii isaan baasetti abbootii keessan wajjin akkana jedhee kakuu gale;
14 At the end of seven years, every man of you shall release his brother who is a Hebrew, who has been sold to you, and has served you six years. You shall let him go free from you. But your fathers did not listen to me, and did not incline their ear.
‘Tokkoon tokkoon keessan waggaa torba torbatti nama sanyii Ibrootaa kan isinitti of gurgure kam iyyuu bilisa baasuu qabdu. Erga inni waggaa jaʼa isin tajaajilee booddee isin gad isa dhiisuu qabdu.’ Abbootiin keessan garuu na hin dhageenye; gurras naa hin kennine.
15 You had now turned, and had done that which is right in my eyes, in every man proclaiming liberty to his neighbor. You had made a covenant before me in the house which is called by my name;
Isin immoo dhiʼoo kana qalbii jijjiirrattanii waan fuula koo duratti qajeelaa taʼe gootaniirtu: Tokkoon tokkoon keessanis lammiiwwan keessaniif bilisummaa labsitaniirtu. Mana Maqaa kootiin waamamu keessatti fuula koo duratti kakuu galtaniirtu.
16 but you turned and profaned my name, and every man caused his servant and every man his handmaid, whom you had let go free at their pleasure, to return. You brought them into subjection, to be to you for servants and for handmaids.’”
Amma garuu garagaltanii maqaa koo xureessitan; tokkoon tokkoon keessan garboota dhiiraa dubartii isin akka isaan gara fedhan deemaniif bilisa baaftanii turtan sana deebiftanii fudhattaniirtu. Akka isaan ammas garboota keessan taʼaniif isaan dirqamsiiftaniirtu.
17 Therefore the LORD says: “You have not listened to me, to proclaim liberty, every man to his brother, and every man to his neighbor. Behold, I proclaim to you a liberty,” says the LORD, “to the sword, to the pestilence, and to the famine. I will make you be tossed back and forth among all the kingdoms of the earth.
“Kanaafuu Waaqayyo akkana jedha: Isin naaf hin ajajamne; lammiiwwan keessaniifis bilisummaa hin labsine. Kanaafuu ani amma, ‘Bilisummaa isinii nan labsa’ jedha Waaqayyo; ‘Bilisummaan’ kunis bilisummaa goraadeedhaan, dhaʼichaa fi beelaan dhumuu ti. Ani fuula mootummoota lafaa hundaa durattis akka isin jibbamtan nan godha.
18 I will give the men who have transgressed my covenant, who have not performed the words of the covenant which they made before me when they cut the calf in two and passed between its parts:
Warra kakuu koo cabsanii walii galtee kakuu fuula koo duratti godhan sanaa hin eegin immoo akkuma jabbii isaan iddoo lamatti qoodanii gidduu isaanii baʼanii darban sanaa nan godha.
19 the princes of Judah, the princes of Jerusalem, the eunuchs, the priests, and all the people of the land, who passed between the parts of the calf.
Dura buutota Yihuudaatii fi Yerusaalem, qondaaltota mana murtii, lubootaa fi uummata biyyattii kanneen jabbii gargar qoodame sana gidduu baʼanii darban hunda,
20 I will even give them into the hand of their enemies and into the hand of those who seek their life. Their dead bodies will be food for the birds of the sky and for the animals of the earth.
dabarsee diinota lubbuu isaanii balleessuu barbaadanitti nan kenna. Reeffi isaanii allaattii samiitii fi bineensota lafaatiif nyaata ni taʼa.
21 “I will give Zedekiah king of Judah and his princes into the hands of their enemies, into the hands of those who seek their life and into the hands of the king of Babylon’s army, who has gone away from you.
“Anis Zedeqiyaa mooticha Yihuudaatii fi qondaaltota isaa dabarsee diinota isaanii warra lubbuu isaanii balleessuu barbaadanitti, loltoota mootii Baabilon kanneen isin loluu irraa deebiʼanitti nan kenna.
22 Behold, I will command,” says the LORD, “and cause them to return to this city. They will fight against it, take it, and burn it with fire. I will make the cities of Judah a desolation, without inhabitant.”
Ani ajaja kennee, gara magaalaa kanaatti deebisee isaan nan fida jedha Waaqayyo. Isaanis ishee ni lolu; qabataniis ibiddaan ishee gubu. Anis akka namni tokko iyyuu keessa hin jiraanneef magaalaawwan Yihuudaa nan onsa.”
