< Isaiah 31 >

1 Woe vnto them that goe downe into Egypt for helpe, and stay vpon horses, and trust in charets, because they are many, and in horsemen, because they be very strong: but they looke not vnto the holy one of Israel, nor seeke vnto the Lord.
Warra gargaarsa barbaacha gara Gibxitti gad buʼaniif, warra fardeen abdataniif warra gaariiwwan isaaniitii fi jabina abbootii fardeen isaanii amanatanii garuu gara Qulqullicha Israaʼel hin ilaalle yookaan gargaarsa Waaqayyoo hin barbaanneef wayyoo.
2 But he yet is wisest: therefore he wil bring euill, and not turne backe his worde, but he will arise against the house of the wicked, and against the helpe of them that worke vanitie.
Taʼus inni ogeessa; balaas fiduu dandaʼa; inni waan jedhe irraa duubatti hin deebiʼu. Inni mana hamootaatti, warra namoota hammina hojjetan gargaaraniitti ni kaʼa.
3 Now the Egyptians are men, and not God, and their horses flesh and not spirite: and when the Lord shall stretch out his hand, the helper shall fall, and hee that is holpen shall fall, and they shall altogether faile.
Warri Gibxi namootuma malee Waaqa miti; fardeen isaaniis foonuma malee hafuura miti. Yeroo Waaqayyo harka isaa diriirfatutti, inni gargaaru ni gufata; inni gargaaramus ni kufa; isaan lachuu walii wajjin badu.
4 For thus hath the Lord spoken vnto me, As the lyon or lyons whelpe roareth vpon his praye, against whom if a multitude of shepheards be called, hee will not be afraide at their voyce, neither will humble him selfe at their noise: so shall the Lord of hostes come downe to fight for mount Zion, and for the hill thereof.
Waaqayyo akkana naan jedha: “Akkuma leenci, leenci guddaan tokko waan qabate irratti aadu sana, tuunni tiksootaa guutuun isatti wal waammatan iyyuu, inni iyya isaanii hin sodaatu; yookaan waca isaaniitiin hin raafamu; akkasuma Waaqayyoon Waan Hunda Dandaʼu Tulluu Xiyoon irratti waraana banuuf gad buʼa.
5 As birds that flie, so shall the Lord of hostes defend Ierusalem by defending and deliuering, by passing through and preseruing it.
Akkuma simbirroon mataa namaa irra naannoftu sana Waaqayyoon Waan Hunda Dandaʼu Yerusaalemiif gaachana taʼa; inni gaachana taʼeefii ishee baraara; ishee bira darba; ishee oolchas.”
6 O ye children of Israel, turne againe, in as much as ye are sunken deepe in rebellion.
Yaa saba Israaʼel, gara Isa akka malee itti finciltan sanaatti deebiʼaa.
7 For in that day euery man shall cast out his idoles of siluer, and his idoles of golde, which your handes haue made you, euen a sinne.
Bara sana tokkoon tokkoon keessan waaqota tolfamoo harki keessan cubbamaan sun meetii fi warqee irraa hojjetee ture sana ni gattuutii.
8 Then shall Asshur fall by the sworde, not of man, neither shall the sworde of man deuoure him, and hee shall flee from the sworde, and his yong men shall faint.
“Asoor goraadee kan namaa hin taʼiniin kufti; goraadeen nama duʼa hin oollees isaan fixa. Isaan goraadee duraa baqatu; dargaggoonni isaaniis dirqamaan hojii humnaa hojjetu.
9 And he shall go for feare to his towre, and his princes shall be afraide of the standart, sayeth the Lord, whose fire is in Zion, and his fornace in Ierusalem.
Daʼoon isaanii sababii sodaatiif ni jiga; ajajjoonni isaaniis faajjii waraanaa arganii hollatu” jedha Waaqayyo, inni ibiddi isaa Xiyoon keessa, kan boolli ibidda isaa immoo Yerusaalem keessa jiru sun.
