< Isaiah 5 >

1 I will sing to my well-beloved a song of my beloved touching his vineyard: My well-beloved had a vineyard upon a fruitful hill.
Ani naman jaalladhu sanaaf, faarfannaa waaʼee iddoo dhaabaa wayinii isaa nan faarfadha: Michuun koo gaara gabbataa irraa iddoo dhaabaa wayinii qaba.
2 And he dug it, and gathered out the stones thereof, and planted it with the choicest vine; and he built a tower in the midst of it, and also hewed out a winepress therein; and he looked that it should bring forth grapes, but it brought forth wild grapes.
Innis lafa sana qotee isa irraa dhagaa balleessee wayinii filatamaa isa irra dhaabe. Qooxii eegumsaa isa keessatti ijaaree boolla wayinii itti cuunfan illee qote. Ergasii akka lafti qotiisaa sun ija gaarii kennu eeggate; inni garuu ija hamaa qofa kenne.
3 And now, inhabitants of Jerusalem and men of Judah, judge, I pray you, between me and my vineyard.
“Yaa jiraattota Yerusaalemii fi saba Yihuudaa, mee dubbii anaa fi iddoo dhaabaa wayinii koo gidduu jiruuf murtii kennaa.
4 What was there yet to do to my vineyard that I have not done in it? Wherefore, when I looked that it should bring forth grapes, brought it forth wild grapes? —
Waan ani godheef kana caalaa wanni iddoo dhaabaa wayinii kootiif godhamuu malu maali? Yeroo ani ija wayinii gaarii barbaadetti inni maaliif ija hadhaaʼaa qofa naqate?
5 And now, let me tell you what I am about to do to my vineyard: I will take away its hedge, and it shall be eaten up; I will break down its wall, and it shall be trodden under foot;
Ani amma waanan iddoo dhaabaa wayinii koo gochuuf jiru isinitti nan hima; ani dallaa isaa nan diiga; innis ni bada; dallaa isaa dhagaa nan jigsa; innis gad dhidhiitama.
6 and I will make it a waste — it shall not be pruned nor cultivated, but there shall come up briars and thorns; and I will command the clouds that they rain no rain upon it.
Ani isa nan onsa; mukni wayinii isaas hin qoramu yookaan lafti isaa hin qotamu. Sokorruu fi qoraattiin achi keessatti guddata. Ani akka bokkaan itti hin roobneef duumessa nan ajaja.”
7 For the vineyard of Jehovah of hosts is the house of Israel, and the men of Judah the plant of his delight: and he looked for justice, and behold, blood-shedding; for righteousness, and behold, a cry.
Iddoon dhaabaa wayinii Waaqayyoo Waan Hunda Dandaʼuu mana Israaʼel; namoonni Yihuudaa immoo iddoo biqiltuu inni itti gammaduu dha. Inni murtii qajeelaa barbaade; garuu dhiiga dhangalaafamu arge; qajeelummaa barbaade; garuu iyya warra miidhamee dhagaʼe.
8 Woe unto them that add house to house, that join field to field, until there is no more room, and that ye dwell yourselves alone in the midst of the land!
Isin warra hamma iddoon tokko iyyuu hin hafnetti mana irratti mana, lafa qotiisaa irratti lafa qotiisaa dabalattanii kophuma keessan biyya keessa jiraattaniif wayyoo!
9 In mine ears Jehovah of hosts [hath said], Many houses shall assuredly become a desolation, great and excellent ones, without inhabitant.
Waaqayyoon Waan Hunda Dandaʼu utumaa ani dhagaʼuu akkana jedhee dubbate: “Dhugumaan manneen hedduun ni onu; manneen gurguddaanii fi babbareedoon nama keessa jiraatu dhabu.
10 Yea, ten acres of vineyard shall yield one bath, and a homer of seed shall yield an ephah.
Iddoo dhaabaa wayinii cimdii kudhan irraa daadhii wayinii baadoosii tokko qofatu galfama; sanyii qoroosii tokkoo irraa midhaan iifii tokkoo qofatu galfama.”
11 Woe unto them that, rising early in the morning, run after strong drink; that linger till twilight, [till] wine inflameth them!
Warra dhugaatii barbaachaaf ganamaan kaʼan, kanneen hamma daadhii wayiniitiin machaaʼanitti halkan dheereffataniif wayyoo.
12 And harp and lyre, tambour and flute, and wine are in their banquets; but they regard not the work of Jehovah, nor do they see the operation of his hands.
Isaan cidha isaanii irratti baganaa, kiraaraa fi dibbee, ulullee fi daadhii wayinii qabu; garuu hojii Waaqayyootiif dhimma hin qaban; hojii harka isaatiifis ulfina hin kennan.
13 Therefore my people are led away captive from lack of knowledge, and their nobility die of famine, and their multitude are parched with thirst.
Kanaafuu sabni koo sababii hubannaa dhabeef boojiʼama; namoonni isaanii bebbeekamoon beelaan, uummanni isaaniis dheebuudhaan dhumu.
14 Therefore doth Sheol enlarge its desire, and open its mouth without measure; and her splendour shall descend [into it], and her multitude, and her tumult, and [all] that is joyful within her. (Sheol h7585)
Kanaafuu Siiʼool garaa isaa balʼifatee afaan ofii isaa illee hamma malee banata; namoonni isaanii bebbeekamoonii fi uummanni isaanii warri wacanii fi warri gammadan hundis achi keessa buʼu. (Sheol h7585)
15 And the mean man shall be bowed down, and the great man brought low, and the eyes of the lofty shall be brought low;
Kanaafuu namni gad qabama; ilmaan namaa gad deebifamu; iji of tuultotaas lafa ilaala.
16 and Jehovah of hosts shall be exalted in judgment, and the holy God hallowed in righteousness.
Waaqayyoon Waan Hunda Dandaʼu garuu murtii qajeelaa ofii isaatiin ol ol jedha; Waaqni qulqulluun qajeelummaa ofii isaatiin akka qulqulluu taʼe of argisiisa.
17 And the lambs shall feed as on their pasture, and the waste places of the fat ones shall strangers eat.
Yeroo sanatti hoolonni akkuma waan lafa dheeda isaanii keessa jiraniitti ni dheedu; xobbaallaawwan hoolaas iddoo sooreyyiin itti barbadaaʼan keessa dheedu.
18 Woe unto them that draw iniquity with cords of vanity, and sin as with cart-ropes!
Warra funyoo gowwoomsaatiin cubbuu, funyoo gaariitiinis hammina harkisan,
19 who say, Let him hasten, let him speed his work, that we may see [it]; and let the counsel of the Holy One of Israel draw nigh and come, that we may know it!
kanneen, “Waaqni haa ariifatu; akka nu arginuuf inni hojii ofii isaa haa saffisiisu, wanni kun haa dhiʼaatu; akka nu beeknuufis karoorri Qulqullicha Israaʼel haa dhufu” jedhaniif wayyoo.
20 Woe unto them who call evil good, and good evil; who put darkness for light, and light for darkness; who put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!
Warra hamaadhaan gaarii, gaariidhaan immoo hamaa jedhaniif, kanneen ifaan dukkana, dukkanaan immoo ifa jedhaniif, warra miʼaawaadhaan hadhaaʼaa, hadhaaʼaadhaan immoo miʼaawaa jedhaniif wayyoo.
21 Woe unto them that are wise in their own eyes, and intelligent in their own esteem!
Warra akka yaada isaaniitti ogeeyyii, akka ilaalcha isaaniitti immoo abshaala of seʼaniif wayyoo.
22 Woe unto them that are mighty for drinking wine, and men valiant to mix strong drink;
Warra daadhii wayinii dhuguutti jabaa, dhugaatii walitti makuuttis goota taʼaniif,
23 who justify the wicked for a bribe, and turn away the righteousness of the righteous from them!
warra mattaʼaa fudhatanii yakkamaa gad lakkisaniif, murtii nama balleessaa hin qabnee immoo jalʼisaniif wayyoo.
24 Therefore as a tongue of fire devoureth the stubble, and dry grass sinketh down in the flame, their root shall be as rottenness, and their blossom shall go up as dust; for they have rejected the law of Jehovah of hosts, and despised the word of the Holy One of Israel.
Kanaafuu akkuma arrabni ibiddaa cidii lafa irraa arraabu, akkuma okaan ibiddaan gubatee badu sana hiddi isaanii ni tortora; daraaraan isaaniis akkuma awwaaraa bittinnaaʼee bada; isaan seera Waaqayyoo Waan Hunda Dandaʼuu didanii dubbii Qulqullicha Israaʼel tuffataniiruutii.
25 Therefore is the anger of Jehovah kindled against his people, and he hath stretched out his hand against them and hath smitten them; and the mountains trembled, and their carcases are become as dung in the midst of the streets. For all this his anger is not turned away, and his hand is stretched out still.
Kanaafuu dheekkamsi Waaqayyoo saba isaatti ni bobaʼa; harki isaa ol kaʼee isaan rukuta. Tulluuwwan ni raafamu; reeffi isaaniis akkuma kosii daandii irratti gatamee taʼa. Kana hundaan illee dheekkamsi isaa hin qabbanoofne; harki isaas akkuma ol kaafametti jira.
26 And he will lift up a banner to the nations afar off, and will hiss for one from the end of the earth; and behold, it will come rapidly [and] lightly.
Inni saboota fagoo jiraniif faajjii ol qaba; warra moggaa lafaa jiranitti ni siiqsa. Isaanis kunoo ariifatanii dafanii dhufu.
27 None among them is weary, none stumbleth; they slumber not, nor sleep; none hath the girdle of his loins loosed, nor the thong of his sandals broken;
Isaan keessaa namni tokko iyyuu hin dadhabu yookaan hin gufatu; namni tokko iyyuu hin mugu yookaan hin rafu; sabbanni mudhii isaanii hin laafu; hidhaan kophee isaaniis hin citu.
28 their arrows are sharp, and all their bows bent; their horses' hoofs are reckoned as the flint, and their wheels as a whirlwind.
Xiyyi isaanii qaramaa dha; iddaan isaanii hundi qopheeffameera; kotteen fardeen isaanii akkuma dhagaa qara qabuu ti; gommaan gaarii isaaniis akkuma bubbee hamaa ti.
29 Their roaring is like a lioness, they roar as the young lions; yea, they growl, and snatch the prey, and carry it away safe, and there is none to deliver;
Aaduun isaanii akkuma aaduu leencaa ti; isaan akkuma saafela leencaa aadu; yeroo waan adamsatan qabatanitti ni gururiʼu; isaan waan qabatan fudhatanii deemu; namni isaan harkaa buusuu dandaʼus hin jiru.
30 and they shall roar against them in that day like the roaring of the sea. And if one look upon the earth, behold darkness [and] distress, and the light is darkened in the heavens thereof.
Gaafas isaan akkuma huursaa galaanaa waan sana irraa huursu. Namni tokko yoo biyya sana ilaale, inni dukkanaa fi rakkina arga; aduunis duumessaan dukkaneeffama.
