< Zechariah 5 >

1 And I turned and lifted up my eyes. And I saw, and behold, a book flying.
Ani ammas ol milʼadhe; kunoo kitaabni maramaan barrisu tokko fuula koo dura ture!
2 And he said to me, “What do you see?” And I said, “I see a book flying. Its length is twenty cubits, and its width is ten cubits.”
Ergamaan Waaqayyoo sunis, “Ati maal argita?” jedhee na gaafate. Anis, “Kunoo ani kitaaba maramaa dhundhuma digdama dheeratee dhundhuma kudhan balʼatu tokko nan arga” jedheen deebise.
3 And he said to me, “This is the curse that goes forth over the face of the whole earth. For every thief will be judged, just as it has been written there, and everyone who swears by this, will be judged in like manner.”
Kana irratti inni akkana naan jedhe; “Kun abaarsa lafa hundumatti dhufaa jiruu dha; akka kitaabicha irratti barreeffametti, hattuun hundinuu ni barbadoofti; akkuma barreeffamni gama kaan irraa jedhutti namni sobaan kakatu hundinuu ni barbadeeffama.
4 I will bring it forth, says the Lord of hosts, and it will approach to the house of the thief, and to the house of him who swears falsely by my name, and it will remain in the midst of his house and will consume it, with its wood and its stones.
Waaqayyo Waan Hunda Dandaʼu akkana jedha; ‘Ani abaarsa kana gad nan erga; innis mana hattuutii fi mana nama sobaan maqaa kootiin kakatuu ni seena. Abaarsi kun mana isaa keessatti hafee, mana isaa, muka isaatii fi dhagaa isaa ni barbadeessa.’”
5 And the angel had departed, who was speaking with me. And he said to me, “Lift up your eyes, and see what this is, that goes forth.”
Ergamaan Waaqayyoo kan natti dubbachaa ture sun dhufee, “Mee ol jedhii waan dhufaa jiru sana ilaali” naan jedhe.
6 And I said, “What, then, is it?” And he said, “This is a container going forth.” And he said, “This is their eye in all the earth.”
Anis, “Inni maali?” jedheen gaafadhe. Innis, “Kun quunnaa ittiin waa safaranii dha” jedhee deebise. Ammas itti dabalee, “Kun hammina saba guutummaa lafaa irra jiraatuu ti” jedhe.
7 And behold, a talent of lead was being carried; and behold, one woman sitting in the middle of the container.
Ergasii qadaadni dilaalii irraa hojjetame irraa ol fuudhame; kunoo dubartiin tokko quunnaa sana keessa teessee turte!
8 And he said, “This is impiety.” And he cast her into the middle of the container, and he sent the weight of lead into its mouth.
Innis, “Kun hammina” jedhe; ergasii quunnaa keessatti gad ishee dhiibee qadaada dilaalii irraa hojjetame sana afaan quunnaatti deebise.
9 And I lifted up my eyes and I saw. And behold, two women were departing, and a spirit was in their wings, and they had wings like the wings of a kite, and they lifted up the container between earth and heaven.
Ergasii ani ol nan milʼadhe; kunoo dubartoonni qoochoo isaanii jalaa bubbee qaban lama fuula koo dura turan! Isaanis qoochoo akka qoochoo huummoo qabu ture; quunnaa sanas samii fi lafa gidduutti ol fuudhan.
10 And I said to the angel who was speaking with me, “Where are they taking the container?”
Anis, “Isaan quunnaa sana eessatti geessu?” jedheen ergamaa Waaqayyoo kan natti dubbachaa ture sana gaafadhe.
11 And he said to me, “To a house that may be built for it in the land of Shinar, and so that it may be established and set there upon its own base.”
Innis, “Mana ijaaruuf jedhanii gara biyya Baabilonitti geessu. Yeroo manni sun ijaaramee qopheeffamutti quunnaa sana fuudhanii iddoo isaa kaaʼu.”
