Isaiah 30
1 “Woe to the rebellious children,” declares the LORD, “to those who carry out a plan that is not Mine, who form an alliance, but against My will, heaping up sin upon sin.
Waaqayyo akkana jedha: “Ijoollee fincilan, kanneen karoora karoora koo hin taʼin duukaa buʼan, kanneen fedhii kootiin alatti walii galtee uuman, kanneen cubbuu irratti cubbuu dabalaniif wayyoo;
2 They set out to go down to Egypt without asking My advice, to seek shelter under Pharaoh’s protection and take refuge in Egypt’s shade.
kanneen utuu anaan hin mariʼatin Gibxitti gad buʼan, kanneen gaaddisa Gibxi daʼoof, eegumsa Faraʼoon immoo gargaarsaaf abdataniif wayyoo.
3 But Pharaoh’s protection will become your shame, and the refuge of Egypt’s shade your disgrace.
Eegumsi Faraʼoon garuu qaanii isinitti taʼa; gaaddisni Gibxis salphina isinitti fida.
4 For though their princes are at Zoan and their envoys have arrived in Hanes,
Isaan yoo Zooʼaan keessatti qondaaltota qabaatan iyyuu, yoo ergamoonni isaaniis Haanees gaʼan iyyuu,
5 everyone will be put to shame because of a people useless to them. They cannot be of help; they are good for nothing but shame and reproach.”
tokkoon tokkoon isaanii sababii uummata isaan hin fayyadne kanneen qaanii fi salphina malee gargaarsa yookaan buʼaa hin kennine sanaatiif ni qaaneffamu.”
6 This is the burden against the beasts of the Negev: Through a land of hardship and distress, of lioness and lion, of viper and flying serpent, they carry their wealth on the backs of donkeys and their treasures on the humps of camels, to a people of no profit to them.
Raajii waaʼee bineensota Negeeb dubbatame: Ergamoonni qabeenya isaanii harreetti, meeshaa isaanii gaalatti feʼatanii biyya leenci kormii fi leenci dhalaan, bofti summii qabuu fi bofti darbatamu jiraatan, lafa rakkinaa fi dhiphinaan guute keessa baʼanii gara biyya homaa hin fayyadnee
7 Egypt’s help is futile and empty; therefore I have called her Rahab Who Sits Still.
gara Gibxi kan gargaarsi ishee gonkumaa buʼaa hin qabne sanaa dhaqu. Kanaafuu ani, “Raʼaab, kan homaa hin fayyadne” jedhee ishee nan waama.
8 Go now, write it on a tablet in their presence and inscribe it on a scroll; it will be for the days to come, a witness forever and ever.
Amma dhaqiitii gabatee irratti barreessiif; kitaaba maramaa irratti katabiif; kunis akka baroota dhufuuf jiran keessa dhuga baʼumsa bara baraa taʼuuf.
9 These are rebellious people, deceitful children, children unwilling to obey the LORD’s instruction.
Jarri kunneen uummata fincilaa, ijoollee sobduu dha; ijoollee seera Waaqayyoo dhagaʼuuf fedhii hin qabnee dha.
10 They say to the seers, “Stop seeing visions!” and to the prophets, “Do not prophesy to us the truth! Speak to us pleasant words; prophesy illusions.
Isaan mulʼata argitootaan, “Siʼachi mulʼata tokko illee hin arginaa!” jedhu; raajotaanis akkana jedhu; “Isin siʼachi mulʼata qajeelaa taʼe nutti hin himinaa! Waan nama gammachiisu nutti himaa; gowwoomsaa nuuf raajaa.
11 Get out of the way; turn off the road. Rid us of the Holy One of Israel!”
Karaa kana gad dhiisaa; daandii kana irraa jalʼadhaa; Qulqullicha Israaʼel fuula keenya duraa dhabamsiisaa!” jedhu.
12 Therefore this is what the Holy One of Israel says: “Because you have rejected this message, trusting in oppression and relying on deceit,
Kanaafuu Qulqullichi Israaʼel akkana jedha: “Sababii isin ergaa kana diddanii nama hacuucuu abdattanii gowwoomsaatti irkattaniif,
13 this iniquity of yours is like a breach about to fail, a bulge in a high wall, whose collapse will come suddenly— in an instant!
cubbuun kun, akkuma dallaa ol dheeraa dhagaan ijaarame kan baqaqee bosose kan utuu hin beekamin tasa jiguu isinitti taʼa.
14 It will break in pieces like a potter’s jar, shattered so that no fragment can be found. Not a shard will be found in the dust large enough to scoop the coals from a hearth or to skim the water from a cistern.”
Dallaan sun akkuma miʼa supheetti, hamma wanni ittiin cilee bobaʼu iddoo ibiddaatii fuudhan iyyuu hin hafnetti yookaan hamma wanni ittiin boolla bishaanii keessaa bishaan budduuqsan hin hafnetti akka malee caccabee burkutaaʼa.”
15 For the Lord GOD, the Holy One of Israel, has said: “By repentance and rest you would be saved; your strength would lie in quiet confidence— but you were not willing.”
Waaqayyo Gooftaan, Qulqullichi Israaʼel akkana jedha: “Deebiʼuu fi boqochuudhaan ni fayyitu; tasgabbaaʼuu fi abdachuudhaan ni jabaattu; isin garuu kana hin goone.
16 “No,” you say, “we will flee on horses.” Therefore you will flee! “We will ride swift horses,” but your pursuers will be faster.
Isinis, ‘Lakki, nu fardeeniin ni baqanna’ jettu. Kanaafuu isin ni baqattu! Isin, ‘Nu fardeen ariifatanii fiiganiin ni gulufna’ jettu. Kanaafuu warri isin gugsan ni saffisu!
17 A thousand will flee at the threat of one; at the threat of five you will all flee, until you are left alone like a pole on a mountaintop, like a banner on a hill.
Doorsisa nama tokkootiin, kumatu baqata; doorsisa nama shaniitiin immoo, isin hamma akkuma muka alaabaa fiixee tulluu irra jiruu, akkuma faajjii gaara irra jiruu taatanii haftanitti hundi keessan ni baqattu.”
18 Therefore the LORD longs to be gracious to you; therefore He rises to show you compassion, for the LORD is a just God. Blessed are all who wait for Him.
Taʼus Waaqayyo isiniif arjoomuu barbaada; isiniif naʼuufis ni kaʼa: Waaqayyo Waaqa murtii qajeelaa ti. Warri isa eeggatan hundi eebbifamoo dha.
19 O people in Zion who dwell in Jerusalem, you will weep no more. He will surely be gracious when you cry for help; when He hears, He will answer you.
Yaa saba Xiyoon, warri Yerusaalem keessa jiraattan, isin siʼachi hin boossan. Yeroo isin gargaarsa barbaachaaf gara isaatti iyyattanitti inni dhugumaan isiniif arjooma! Akkuma dhagaʼeenis deebii isiniif kenna.
20 The Lord will give you the bread of adversity and the water of affliction, but your Teacher will no longer hide Himself—with your own eyes you will see Him.
Gooftaan buddeena rakkinaatii fi bishaan dhiphinaa siif kennu illee barsiisaan kee siʼachi hin dhokatu; ati ijuma keetiin isa argita.
21 And whether you turn to the right or to the left, your ears will hear this command behind you: “This is the way. Walk in it.”
Ati yeroo gara mirgaatti yookaan gara bitaatti gortutti, dugda kee duubaan sagalee, “Karaan kana; isa irra deemi” jedhu tokko gurri kee ni dhagaʼa.
22 So you will desecrate your silver-plated idols and your gold-plated images. You will throw them away like menstrual cloths, saying to them, “Be gone!”
Ati ergasii waaqota kee tolfamoo kanneen meetiin irra dibamee fi fakkiiwwan kee kanneen warqeen itti uffifame sana ni xureessita; akkuma huccuu xuraaʼummaas of irraa isaan darbattee, “Asii badaa!” jettaan.
23 Then He will send rain for the seed that you have sown in the ground, and the food that comes from your land will be rich and plentiful. On that day your cattle will graze in open pastures.
Inni sanyii ati lafatti facaafattuuf bokkaa siif kenna; midhaan lafti baaftus kan misee fi kan akka malee baayʼate taʼa. Bara sana keessa loon kee lafa dheedaa balʼaa irratti bobbaʼu.
24 The oxen and donkeys that work the ground will eat salted fodder, winnowed with shovel and pitchfork.
Qotiyyoo fi harreen qotiisaa okaa filatamaa qorbii fi afarsaadhaan qulqulleeffame nyaatu.
25 And from every high mountain and every raised hill, streams of water will flow in the day of great slaughter, when the towers fall.
Guyyaa badiisa guddaatti, yeroo qooxiiwwan eegumsaa jijjiganitti yaaʼawwan bishaanii tulluuwwanii fi gaarran ol dhedheeroo hunda irra yaaʼu.
26 The light of the moon will be as bright as the sun, and the light of the sun will be seven times brighter—like the light of seven days—on the day that the LORD binds up the brokenness of His people and heals the wounds He has inflicted.
Gaafa Waaqayyo cabaa saba isaa hidhee warra madeesse illee fayyisutti jiʼi akkuma aduu ifa; ifni aduus akkuma ifa guyyaa torbaa dachaa torba ni ifa.
27 Behold, the Name of the LORD comes from afar, with burning anger and dense smoke. His lips are full of fury, and His tongue is like a consuming fire.
Kunoo Maqaan Waaqayyoo aarii bobaʼuu fi duumessa gobbuu aaraatiin fagoodhaa dhufaa jira; afaan isaa dheekkamsaan, arrabni isaas ibidda gubee balleessuun guutameera.
28 His breath is like a rushing torrent that rises to the neck. He comes to sift the nations in a sieve of destruction; He bridles the jaws of the peoples to lead them astray.
Hafuurri inni baafatu akkuma laga guutee hamma morma gaʼutti ol kaʼuu ti. Inni gingilchaa badiisaatiin saboota gingilcha; inni luugama karaa irraa isaan balleessu haʼoo sabootaa keessa kaaʼa.
29 You will sing as on the night of a holy festival, and your heart will rejoice like one who walks to the music of a flute, going up to the mountain of the LORD, to the Rock of Israel.
Isin akkuma halkan ayyaana qulqulluu ayyaaneffattanitti, faarfannaa ni faarfattu; garaan keessan akkuma yeroo namoonni ulullee afuufaa gara tulluu Waaqayyootti, gara Kattaa Israaʼelitti ol baʼan sanaa ni gammada.
30 And the LORD will cause His majestic voice to be heard and His mighty arm to be revealed, striking in angry wrath with a flame of consuming fire, and with cloudburst, storm, and hailstones.
Waaqayyo akka namoonni sagalee isaa surra qabeessa sana dhagaʼan ni godha; inni akka isaan irree isaa kan aarii guddaa fi ibidda gubee balleessuun, bokkaa hamaadhaan, bakakkaa fi cabbiidhaan dhufaa jiru argan ni godha.
31 For Assyria will be shattered at the voice of the LORD; He will strike them with His scepter.
Sagaleen Waaqayyoo Asoorin ni caccabsa; bokkuu isaatiinis isaan barbadeessa.
32 And with every stroke of the rod of punishment that the LORD brings down on them, the tambourines and lyres will sound as He battles with weapons brandished.
Adabbiin ulee kan Waaqayyo isaan irra buusu hundi sagalee dibbeetii fi sagalee kiraaraa of keessaa qaba; innis rukuttaa irree isaatiin waraana keessatti isaan lola.
33 For Topheth has long been prepared; it has been made ready for the king. Its funeral pyre is deep and wide, with plenty of fire and wood. The breath of the LORD, like a torrent of burning sulfur, sets it ablaze.
Toofet dur qopheeffame; inni mootichaaf qopheeffame. Boolli ibiddaa isaa gad fageeffamee balʼifamee hojjetame; innis ibiddaa fi qoraaniin guutameera; hafuurri afaan Waaqayyootii baʼus akkuma dinyii dhangalaʼuu akka inni bobaʼu godha.
