Esias 45
1 Thus saith the Lord God to my anointed Cyrus, whose right hand I have held, that nations might be obedient before him; and I will break through the strength of kings; I will open doors before him, and cities shall not be closed.
“Waaqayyo dibamaa isaa Qiiros, kan ani saboota isa jalatti bulchuu fi hidhannaa moototaa hiiksisuuf jedhee harka isaa mirgaa qabee akka karrawwan hin cufamneef, balbalawwan banuuf sanaan akkana jedha:
2 I will go before thee, and will level mountains: I will break to pieces brazen doors, and burst iron bars.
Ani fuula kee dura deemee tulluuwwan wal nan qixxeessa; karrawwan naasii nan caccabsa; danqaraawwan sibiilaas nan kukkuta.
3 And I will give thee the treasures of darkness, I will open to thee hidden, unseen [treasures], that thou mayest know that I, the Lord thy God, that call thee by name, am the God of Israel.
Ati akka ani Waaqayyo Waaqa Israaʼel isa maqaa keetiin si waamu taʼe akka beektuuf, ani badhaadhummaa dukkana keessaa, qabeenya lafa dhoksaatti kuufames siif nan kenna.
4 For the sake of my servant Jacob, and Israel mine elect, I will call thee by thy name, and accept thee: but thou hast not known me.
Ati na beekuu baattu iyyuu, ani garbicha koo Yaaqoobiif, Israaʼel filatamaa kootiif jedhee maqaa keetiin si waameera; maqaa ulfinaas siif kenneera.
5 For I am the Lord God, and there is no other God beside me; I strengthened thee, and thou hast not known me.
Ani Waaqayyo; ana malee kan biraa hin jiru; ana malee Waaqni tokko iyyuu hin jiru. Ati na beekuu baattu iyyuu, ani sin jabeessa;
6 That they that [come] from the east and they that [come] from the west may know that there is no God but me. I am the Lord God, and there is none beside.
Kunis akka namoonni baʼa biiftuutii hamma lixa biiftuutti, ana malee kan biraa akka hin jirre beekaniif. Ani Waaqayyo; ana malee tokko iyyuu hin jiru.
7 I am he that prepared light, and formed darkness; who make peace, and create evil; I am the Lord God, that does all these things.
Ani ifa nan tolcha; dukkanas nan uuma; badhaadhummaa nan fida; balaas nan uuma; ani Waaqayyo wantoota kanneen hunda nan godha.
8 Let the heaven rejoice from above, and let the clouds rain righteousness: let the earth bring forth, and blossom [with] mercy, and bring forth righteousness likewise: I am the Lord that created thee.
“Yaa samiiwwan, isin ol gubbaadhaa qajeelummaa roobsaa; duumessoonnis gad coccobsaa. Lafti haa banamtu; fayyinni haa biqilu; qajeelummaanis isa wajjin haa guddatu; ani Waaqayyo waan kana uumeera.
9 What excellent thing have I prepared as clay of the potter? Will the ploughman plough the earth all day? shall the clay say to the potter, What art thou doing that thou dost not work, nor hast hands? shall the thing formed answer him that formed it?
“Qiraacii qiraaciidhuma lafaa taʼee Uumaa isaatiin wal loluuf wayyoo. Supheen, suphee dhooftuudhaan, ‘Ati maal hojjechaa jirta?’ jedhaa? Hojiin ati hojjettus, ‘Inni harka hin qabu’ siin jedhaa?
10 As though one should say to [his] father, What wilt thou beget me? and to his mother, What art thou bringing forth?
Nama Abbaadhaan, ‘Ati maal dhalchite?’ yookaan haadhaan, ‘Ati maal deesse?’ jedhuuf wayyoo.
11 For thus saith the Lord God, the Holy One of Israel, who has formed the things that are to come, Enquire of me concerning my sons, and concerning the works of my hands command me.
“Waaqayyo, Qulqullichi Israaʼel Uumaan ishee sun akkana jedha: Isin waaʼee wantoota dhufuuf jiranii jechuunis, ‘Waaʼee ijoollee koo na gaafadhaa; yookaan waaʼee hojii harka koo na ajajaa.’
12 I have made the earth, and man upon it: I with my hand have established the heaven; I have given commandment to all the stars.
Kan lafa tolchee namas ishee irratti uume ana. Harki koo samiiwwan diriirseera; raayyaa isaanii hundas ajajeera.
13 I have raised him up [to be] a king with righteousness, and all his ways are right: he shall build my city, and shall turn the captivity of my people, not for ransoms, nor for rewards, saith the Lord of hosts.
Ani qajeelummaa kootiin Qiirosin ol nan kaasa: Karaa isaa hundas wal nan qixxeessa. Inni magaalaa koo deebisee ijaara; boojiʼamtoota koos bilisa baasa; garuu gatiidhaan yookaan badhaasaan miti, jedha Waaqayyoon Waan Hunda Dandaʼu.”
14 Thus saith the Lord of hosts, Egypt has laboured [for thee]; and the merchandise of the Ethiopians, and the Sabeans, men of stature, shall pass over to thee, and shall be thy servants; and they shall follow after thee bound in fetters, and shall pass over to thee, and shall do obeisance to thee, and make supplication to thee: because God is in thee; and there is no God beside thee, [O Lord].
Waaqayyo akkana jedha: “Qabeenyi Gibxii fi daldalli Itoophiyaa, namoonni dhedheeroon Saabaa, gara kee ni dhufu; kan kees ni taʼu; isaan foncaadhaan hidhamanii dugda duubaan si duukaa buʼu. Fuula kee durattis gad jedhanii ‘Dhugumaan Waaqni si wajjin jira; isa malees tokko iyyuu hin jiru; isa malees Waaqni biraa hin jiru’ jedhanii si kadhatu.”
15 For thou art God, yet we knew [it] not, the God of Israel, the Saviour.
Yaa Waaqi, Fayyisaa Israaʼel, ati dhugumaan Waaqa of dhoksituu dha.
16 All that are opposed to him shall be ashamed and confounded, and shall walk in shame: ye isles, keep a feast to me.
Warri waaqota tolfamoo tolchan hundinuu ni qaanaʼu; ni salphatu; walii wajjinis salphina keessa buʼu.
17 Israel is saved by the Lord with an everlasting salvation: they shall not be ashamed nor confounded for evermore.
Israaʼel garuu fayyina bara baraatiin Waaqayyo ni fayyifama; isin bara baraan hin qaanoftan; yookaan hin salphattan.
18 Thus saith the Lord that made the heaven, this God that created the earth, and made it; he marked it out, he made it not in vain, but formed it to be inhabited: I am the Lord, and there is none beside.
Waaqayyo akkana jedha; kan samiiwwan uume, inni Waaqa; inni lafa miidhagsee tolchee ishee hundeesse; inni akka isheen iddoo jireenyaa taatuuf ishee uume malee akka isheen ona taatuuf ishee hin uumne; inni akkana jedha; “Ani Waaqayyo; ana malee kan biraa hin jiru.
19 I have not spoken in secret, nor in a dark place of the earth: I said not to the seed of Jacob, Seek vanity: I, even I, am the Lord, speaking righteousness, and proclaiming truth.
Ani biyya dukkanaa keessaa dhoksaadhaan hin dubbanne; ani sanyiiwwan Yaaqoobiin, ‘Akkasumaan na barbaadaa’ hin jenne. Ani Waaqayyo dhugaa nan dubbadha; waan qajeelaas nan labsa.
20 Assemble yourselves and come; take counsel together, ye that escape of the nations: they that set up wood, [even] their graven image, have no knowledge, nor they who pray to gods that do not save.
“Walitti qabamaa kottaa; isin baqattoonni sabootaa wal gaʼaa. Warri waaqa tolfamaa muka irraa hojjetame baatan, kanneen waaqota fayyisuu hin dandeenye kadhatan homaa beekumsa hin qaban.
21 If they will declare, let them draw nigh, that they may know together, who has caused these things to be heard from the beginning: then was it told you. I am God, and there is not another beside me; a just [God] and a Saviour; there is none but me.
Waanan taʼuu qabu dubbadhaa; dhiʼeeffadhaas; isaanis walii wajjin haa mariʼatan. Eenyutu waan kana duraan dursee bara dheeraan dura hime? Duruma iyyuu eenyutu labse? Anuma Waaqayyo mitii? Ana malee Waaqni qajeelaa fi Fayyisaan tokko iyyuu hin jiru; ana malee tokko illee hin jiru.
22 Turn ye to me, and ye shall be saved, ye that [come] from the end of the earth: I am God, and there is none other.
“Isin warri handaara lafaa hundi, gara kootti deebiʼaatii fayyaa; ani Waaqa; ana malee kan biraa hin jiruutii.
23 By myself I swear, righteousness shall surely proceed out of my mouth; my words shall not be frustrated; that to me every knee shall bend, and every tongue shall swear by God,
Ani mataa kootiin kakadheera; afaan koos akkana jedhee qajeelummaadhaan dubbii hin geeddaramne dubbateera; ‘Jilbi hundi fuula koo duratti ni jilbeenfata; arrabni hundis anaan kakata.’
24 saying, Righteousness and glory shall come to him: and all that remove them from their borders shall be ashamed.
Isaanis, ‘Qajeelummaa fi jabinni Waaqayyo qofaan argama’ jedhanii waaʼee koo ni dubbatu.” Warri aariidhaan isatti kaʼan hundi, gara isaa dhufanii ni qaanaʼu.
25 By the Lord shall they be justified, and in God shall all the seed of the children of Israel be glorified.
Sanyiin Israaʼel hundi garuu, Waaqayyoon qajeeltota taasifamu; ni kabajamus.
