< Joel 2 >

1 Blow the trumpet in Zion! Sound the alarm on my holy mountain! Let all who live in the land tremble for the day of the Lord is coming—it's definitely near!
Siyoon buun ka dhex afuufa, oo buurtayda quduuska ah ka dhawaajiya, oo dadka dalka deggan oo dhammu ha wada gariireen, waayo, maalintii Rabbigu way imanaysaa, oo haatan way soo dhow dahay.
2 It's a gloomy day of darkness, a day of thick clouds and heavy shadows. Like the dawn spreading over the mountains, an army appears, so large and powerful that there has never ever been anything like it before, nor will there ever be anything like it again.
Oo maalintaasu waa maalin mugdi iyo gudcur ah, oo waa maalin cadar ah oo gudcur qaro weyn ahu jiro, oo waxay u imanaysaa sida kaaha waaberiga buuraha ku dul faafa. Bal eega dad tiro badan oo xoog weyn! Dadkaas wax la mid ah hore looma arag, oo iyaga dabadoodna wax la mid ahu ma jiri doonaan xataa tan iyo sannado iyo qarniyo badan.
3 Fire blazes in front of them, behind them flames are burning. In front of them the land looks like the Garden of Eden, behind them is a desert of total desolation: not a single survivor remains.
Hortooda dab baa wax laasanaya, oo dabadoodana olol baa wax gubaya. Dhulka iyaga ka horreeya waa sida Beer Ceeden, oo kan iyaga ka dambeeyana waa sidii cidla baabba' ah oo kale, oo wax iyaga ka baxsadayna innaba ma jiraan.
4 They have the appearance of horses; they charge like cavalry.
Muuqashoodu waa sida muuq fardood oo kale, oo waxay u ordaan sida rag fardooley ah.
5 Listen to the sound: they are like rumbling chariots leaping over the mountain tops, they are like crackling flames burning stubble, they are like a mighty army marching in formation into battle.
Oo sanqadhkoodu waa sida gaadhifardood buuraha dhaladooda boodboodaya, iyo sida olol dab oo bal gubaya, iyo sida dad xoog badan oo dagaal u diyaargaroobay.
6 Terror seizes all those in their path; all the people's faces grow pale.
Hortooda dadyowgu way wada gariirayaan, oo qof kastaba wejigiisa cabsi baa ka muuqanaysa.
7 They attack like mighty warriors; they scale walls like soldiers. They all march as one, never breaking ranks.
Iyagu waxay hore ugu ordayaan sida rag xoog badan, oo waxay derbiga u fuulayaan sida rag dagaalyahan ah, oo midkood waluba halkiisuu marayaa, oo kala leexan maayaan.
8 They do not jostle one another, they stay on track; and even if some are cut down, they are not stopped.
Oo midkoodna midka kale riixi maayo, oo midkood waluba wuxuu ku socdaa meeshiisa. Waxay ka dhex dusayaan hubka dagaalka oo innaba socodkooda kama joogsadaan.
9 They rush to and fro in the city; they run along the walls; they climb into houses, entering through the windows like thieves.
Magaalada korkeeda ayay ku boodayaan, oo derbiga korkiisa ayay ku ordayaan, oo guryahay soo korayaan, oo sida tuug oo kale ayay daaqadaha ka soo galayaan.
10 The earth quakes before them, the heavens tremble, the sun and the moon grow dark, the stars stop shining.
Oo hortooda dhulku wuu gariirayaa, samooyinkuna way ruxmanayaan, oo qorraxdii iyo dayaxiina way madoobaadeen, oo xiddigihiina iftiinkoodii way ceshadeen.
11 The Lord shouts his commands at the head of his army. His camp his immense, and those who carry out his orders are powerful. The day of the Lord is totally terrifying—who can stand it?
Rabbiga ayaa codkiisa kaga hor hadlaya ciidankiisa, waayo, xeradiisu aad bay u weyn tahay, oo midka eraygiisa oofinayaa waa xoog badan yahay, waayo, Rabbiga maalintiisu waa weyn tahay, waana mid cabsi badan aad iyo aad, haddaba bal yaa u adkaysan kara?
12 “Yet even now,” says the Lord, “Come back to me while there is still time. Come to me with all your heart, with fasting and prayer.
Haddaba haatan waxaa Rabbigu leeyahay, Qalbigiinna oo dhan iigu soo jeesta, idinkoo sooman, oo ooyaya, oo barooranaya.
13 Repent in your minds, and not by tearing your clothes.” Come back to the Lord your God for he is gracious and kind. He is slow to get angry and full of faithful love, and changes his mind about sending punishment.
Haddaba qalbigiinna jeexa ee dharkiinna ha jeexina, oo Rabbiga Ilaahiinna ah xaggiisa u soo jeesta, waayo, isagu waa nimco miidhan, waana raxmad badan yahay, cadho wuu u gaabiya, waana naxariis badan yahay, oo belaayadana wuu ka soo noqdaa.
14 Who knows? Maybe he will change his mind, leaving behind a blessing so that you will be able to make grain and wine offerings to the Lord your God.
Bal yaa garanaya inuu isagu soo jeesan doono oo soo noqon doono, iyo in kale, iyo inuu gadaashiisa kaga tegi doono barako, taasoo qurbaan hadhuudh ah iyo qurbaan cabniin ah oo aad Rabbiga Ilaahiinna ah u bixinaysaan?
15 Blow the trumpet in Zion! Proclaim a fast; call a solemn assembly.
Siyoon buun ka dhex afuufa, oo soon naadiya, oo shir ku dhawaaqa.
16 Gather the people together: the elders, the children, even the babies. Let the bridegroom leave his room; let the bride leave her room.
Dadka soo ururiya, oo ururka quduus ka dhiga, oo odayaasha soo shiriya, oo carruurta soo ururiya, iyo xataa kuwa naasaha nuugaya. Aroosku qolkiisa ha ka soo baxo, oo aroosadduna ilxidhkeeda ha ka soo baxdo.
17 Let the priests, the ministers of the Lord, weep between the porch and the altar of the Temple. Let them say, “Lord, please take pity on your people, and do not let your inheritance be disgraced, ruled over by foreign nations, so that the people of these nations could ask, ‘Where is their God?’”
Wadaaddada midiidinnada Rabbiga ahu balbalada iyo meesha allabariga dhexdooda ha ku ooyeen, oo iyagu ha yidhaahdeen, Rabbiyow, dadkaaga u tudh, oo dadka dhaxalkaaga ah wax la caayo ha ka dhigin oo yaanay quruumuhu iyaga u taline. Waayo, bal maxaa dadyowga dhexdooda looga odhan doonaa, Bal meeh Ilaahooda?
18 Now the Lord is very protective of his land and takes pity on his people.
Markaasaa Rabbigu u hinaasay dalkiisii, oo dadkiisuu u naxay.
19 The Lord will reply, saying to his people, “Look! I am sending you grain and new wine and olive oil, and you will be satisfied. You will no longer be a disgrace among the foreign nations.
Oo Rabbigu waa u jawaabay dadkiisii oo wuxuu ku yidhi, Bal ogaada, waxaan idiin soo dirayaa hadhuudh, iyo khamri, iyo saliid, oo idinkuna waxaasaad ka dhergi doontaan, oo anna mar dambe quruumaha dhexdooda wax la caayo idinkaga dhigi maayo.
20 I will remove from you the army from the north; I will drive them into the desolate wilderness—the front into the eastern sea, and the rear into the western sea. The stench of the dead army will rise up—a real stink—for it has done terrible things.”
Laakiinse waan idinka fogayn doonaa ciidanka woqooyi, oo isaga waxaan ku eryi doonaa dal abaar iyo cidlo ah, oo qaybtiisa hore waxaan geeyn doonaa badda bari, oo qaybtiisa dambena waxaan geeyn doonaa badda galbeed, oo waxaa kor u soo bixi doona qudhunkiisa, oo uurkiisa xumuna wuu soo kici doonaa, maxaa yeelay, isagu wuxuu sameeyey waxyaalo waaweyn.
21 Don't be afraid, people of the land! Be happy and celebrate, for the Lord has done incredible things!
Haddaba dal yahow, ha baqin, laakiinse farax, oo reyree, maxaa yeelay, Rabbigu wuxuu sameeyey waxyaalo waaweyn.
22 Don't be afraid, wild animals! For the pastures of the wilderness are turning green. The trees are fruiting again—the fig trees and the grapevines are producing a good crop.
Xayawaanka duurkow, ha cabsanina, waayo, naqii cidladu waa soo baxayaa, oo dhirtiina midhaheeday dhalaysaa, oo berdihii iyo canabkiiba way barwaaqoobayaan.
23 People of Jerusalem! Celebrate and be happy in the Lord your God because he has given you rain to show his goodness. As before he sends the autumn and the spring rains.
Haddaba reer Siyoonay, farxa oo Rabbiga Ilaahiinna ah ku reyreeya, waayo, roobkii hore buu si xaq ah idiin siiyey, oo wuxuu idiin di'iyey roob, intii hore iyo intii dambeba sidii markii hore.
24 The threshing floors will be full of grain, the vats will overflow with new wine and olive oil.
Oo goobaha wax lagu tumo waxaa ka buuxsami doona sarreen, oo macsarooyinkuna waxay la buuxdhaafi doonaan khamri iyo saliid.
25 “I will give back to you what you lost over the years to the swarming, hopping, destroying, and cutting locusts, this great army that I sent against you.
Oo waxaan idiin soo celin doonaa waxa ay sannadihii idinka cuneen ayaxa, iyo laddaaga, iyo diirta, iyo koronkorradu, kuwaas oo ahaa ciidankii weynaa oo aan idiin soo diray.
26 You will have plenty to eat, and you will be satisfied, and you will praise the name of the Lord your God who has done miracles for you. My people will never again be ashamed.
Oo idinku wax badan baad cuni doontaan oo waad dhergi doontaan, oo waxaad ammaani doontaan magaca Rabbiga Ilaahiinna ah oo waxa yaabka badan idiin sameeyey, oo dadkayguna innaba ma ay ceeboobi doonaan.
27 You will know that I am in the midst of my people Israel, that I am the Lord your God, and that there is no other. My people will never again be ashamed.
Oo markaas waxaad ogaan doontaan inaan dadka Israa'iil dhex joogo, iyo inaan anigu ahay Rabbiga Ilaahiinna ah, oo aan ilaah kale jirin, oo dadkayguna innaba ma ay ceeboobi doonaan.
28 After this I will pour out my spirit on everyone. Your sons and daughters will be my prophets, your old men will dream dreams, and your young men will see visions.
Oo markaas dabadeedna anigu ruuxayga ayaan ku shubi doonaa dad oo dhan, oo wiilashiinna iyo hablihiinnu wax bay sii sheegi doonaan, oo odayaashiinnuna riyooyin bay ku riyoon doonaan, oo raggiinna dhallinyarada ahuna wax bay arki doonaan,
29 In those days I will also pour out my spirit on male slaves and female slaves.
oo weliba maalmahaas addoommada rag iyo dumarba ruuxaygaan ku shubi doonaa.
30 I will place wonders in the heavens and on earth: blood, and fire, and columns of smoke.
Oo waxaan samooyinka iyo dhulkaba ka muujin doonaa yaabab, kuwaasoo ah dhiig, iyo dab, iyo tiirar qiiq ah.
31 The sun will turn dark, and the moon will turn red like blood at the coming of the great and fearful day of the Lord.”
Qorraxdu waxay u beddelmi doontaa gudcur, dayaxuna wuxuu u beddelmi doonaa dhiig, intaanay iman maalinta Rabbiga oo weyn oo cabsida badanu.
32 Then everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved, rescued from Mount Zion and Jerusalem, as the Lord has said—these are among the survivors the Lord has called.
Oo waxay noqon doontaa in ku alla kii magaca Rabbiga ku barya uu samatabbixi doono, waayo, Buur Siyoon iyo Yeruusaalem, iyo kuwa hadhay oo Rabbigu u yeedhayba waxaa jiri doona kuwo u baxsada sidii Rabbigu yidhi.
