Isaiah 13
1 The burden of Babylon, which Isaiah the son of Amoz saw.
Raajii waaʼee Baabilon kan Isaayyaas ilmi Amoos arge:
2 Lift up a banner upon a bare mountain, raise the voice unto them, shake the hand, that they may enter the gates of the nobles.
Tulluu homaa itti hin biqilin irratti faajjii ol kaasaatii isaanitti iyyaa; akka isaan karra namoota bebeekamootiin ol galaniif harkaan itti himaa.
3 I have commanded my hallowed ones, I have also called my mighty men for mine anger, them that rejoice in my highness.
Ani qulqulloota koo ajajeera; akka isaan dheekkamsa koo hojii irra naa oolchaniif ani loltoota koo kanneen moʼannoo kootti gammadan waammadheera.
4 The noise of a multitude on the mountains, as of a great people; a tumultuous noise of the kingdoms of nations assembled together: Jehovah of hosts mustereth the host of the battle.
Waca tulluuwwan irraa, kan akka tuuta guddaa tokkoo dhaggeeffadhaa! Guungummii mootummootaa kan saboota walitti qabamanii dhaggeeffadhaa! Waaqayyoon Waan Hunda Dandaʼu lolaaf jedhee loltoota qopheeffachaa jira!
5 They come from a far country, from the end of the heavens — Jehovah, and the weapons of his indignation — to destroy the whole land.
Isaan biyya fagoodhaa daarii samiiwwaniitii dhufan; Waaqayyoo fi miʼa lolaa kan dheekkamsa isaatiin guutummaa biyyattii balleessuuf dhufu.
6 Howl, for the day of Jehovah is at hand; it cometh as destruction from the Almighty.
Waan guyyaan Waaqayyoo dhiʼaateef booʼaa; guyyaan sun akkuma badiisa Waaqa Waan Hunda Dandaʼu biraa ergameetti ni dhufa.
7 Therefore shall all hands be feeble, and every heart of man shall melt,
Kanaafuu harki hundinuu ni laamshaʼa; onneen nama hundaas ni baqa.
8 and they shall be terrified: pangs and sorrows shall take hold of them, they shall writhe as a woman that travaileth; they shall be amazed one at another, their faces shall be as flames.
Sodaan isaan qabata; dhukkubbii fi gaddi isaan qabata; akkuma dubartii ciniinsuun qabeetti wixxirfatu. Isaan rifatanii wal ilaalu; fuulli isaanii akka ibiddaa diimata.
9 Behold, the day of Jehovah cometh, cruel both with wrath and fierce anger, to lay the earth desolate; and he will destroy the sinners thereof out of it.
Kunoo guyyaan Waaqayyoo, guyyaan hamaan, dheekkamsaa fi aarii sodaachisaadhaan, lafa onsuu fi cubbamoota ishee keessa jiraatan barbadeessuuf ni dhufa.
10 For the stars of the heavens and the constellations thereof shall not give their light; the sun shall be darkened in his going forth, and the moon shall not cause her light to shine.
Urjiiwwan samiitii fi tuunni isaanii ifa isaanii hin kennan. Aduun baatu ni dukkanoofti; jiʼis ifa ishee hin kennitu.
11 And I will punish the world for evil, and the wicked for their iniquity; and I will make the arrogance of the proud to cease, and will bring low the haughtiness of the violent.
Ani addunyaa kana sababii jalʼina isaatiif, hamoota sababii cubbuu isaaniitiif nan adaba. Ani of tuulummaa of jajjootaa nan balleessa; of guddisuu gara jabeeyyii illee gadin deebisa.
12 I will make a man more precious than fine gold, even man than the gold of Ophir.
Ani akka namni warqee qulqulluu caalaa gati qabeessa, warqee Oofiir caalaas muraasa taʼu nan godha.
13 Therefore I will make the heavens to shake, and the earth shall be removed out of her place, at the wrath of Jehovah of hosts, and in the day of his fierce anger.
Kanaafuu ani akka samiiwwan hollatan nan godha; gaafa aariin isaa bobaʼutti dheekkamsa Waaqayyoo Waan Hunda Dandaʼuutiin lafti iddoo isheetii ni raafamti.
14 And it shall be as with a chased roe, and as with a flock that no man gathereth together; every one shall turn to his own people, and every one flee into his own land.
Namni hundinuu akkuma kuruphee adamsamtuu, akkuma hoolota tiksee hin qabnee gara saba isaatti deebiʼa; namni kam iyyuu biyya isaatti baqata.
15 All that are found shall be thrust through; and every one that is in league [with them] shall fall by the sword.
Namni boojiʼame hundinuu ni waraanama; kan qabame kam iyyuu goraadeedhaan duʼa.
16 And their infants shall be dashed in pieces before their eyes, their houses shall be rifled, and their women ravished.
Daaʼimman isaanii fuuluma isaanii duratti ni cicciramu; manneen isaanii ni saamamu; niitonni isaaniis humnaan gudeedamu.
17 Behold, I will stir up the Medes against them, who do not regard silver, and as for gold, they have no delight in it.
Kunoo ani warra Meedee kanneen meetii irraa dhimma hin qabne warra warqeen hin gammachiifne jarattin kakaasa.
18 And [their] bows shall dash the young men to pieces, and they shall have no pity on the fruit of the womb: their eye shall not spare children.
Iddaan isaanii dargaggoota fixxi; isaan daaʼimmaniif hin naʼan; ijoolleefis garaa hin laafan.
19 And Babylon, the glory of kingdoms, the beauty of the Chaldeans' pride, shall be as when God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah.
Baabilon ulfinni moototaa, miidhaginni of jaja warra Baabilon akkuma Sodoomii fi Gomoraa irree Waaqaatiin garagalfamti.
20 It shall never be inhabited, neither shall it be dwelt in, even to generation and generation; nor shall Arabian pitch tent there, nor shepherds make fold there.
Namni ishee keessa hin qubatu; yookaan dhaloota hunda keessatti namni ishee keessa hin jiraatu; namni Arabaa tokko iyyuu dunkaana isaa achi hin dhaabbatu; tikseen tokko iyyuu bushaayee isaa achi hin boqochiifattu.
21 But beasts of the desert shall lie there, and their houses shall be full of owls; and ostriches shall dwell there, and wild goats shall dance there.
Garuu bineensonni bosonaa achi ciciisu; waangoowwan mana ishee ni guutu; urunguun achi jiraatti; reʼeen diidaa achi keessa buburraaqxi.
22 And jackals shall cry to one another in their palaces, and wild dogs in the pleasant castles. And her time is near to come, and her days shall not be prolonged.
Waraabessi daʼannoowwan ishee keessaa yuusa; waangoonis manneen ishee mimmiidhagoo kan mootummaa keessaa iyyiti. Yeroon ishee gaʼeera; barri ishees hin dheeratu.
