< Jeremiah 47 >

1 The wordes of the Lord that came to Ieremiah the Prophet, against the Philistims, before that Pharaoh smote Azzah.
Dubbiin Waaqayyoo kan waaʼee Filisxeemotaa kan utuu Faraʼoon Gaazaa hin dhaʼin dura gara Ermiyaas raajichaa dhufe kanaa dha:
2 Thus saith the Lord, Beholde, waters rise vp out of the North, and shalbe as a swelling flood, and shall ouerflowe the land, and all that is therein, and the cities with them that dwell therein: then the men shall crie, and all the inhabitants of the land shall howle,
Waaqayyo akkana jedha: “Kunoo, karaa kaabaatiin bishaan ol kaʼaa jira; bishaan kunis lolaa guutee irra dhangalaʼu taʼa. Innis biyyattii fi waan ishee keessa jiru, magaalaawwanii fi warra isaan keessa jiraatan hunda irra garagala. Uummanni ni booʼa; warri ishee keessa jiraatan hundis ni wawwaatu;
3 At the noise and stamping of ye hoofes of his strong horses, at the noise of his charets, and at the rumbling of his wheeles: ye fathers shall not looke backe to their children, for feeblenes of handes,
kunis sababii didicha kottee fardeen gulufanii, girrisa gaariiwwan diinaatii fi qaqawweessa goommaa isaaniitiif. Abbootiin ijoollee isaanii gargaaruuf duubatti gara hin galan; harki isaaniis isaan irratti laamshaʼa.
4 Because of the day that commeth to destroy all the Philistims, and to destroy Tyrus, and Zidon, and all the rest that take their part: for the Lord will destroy the Philistims, the remnant of the yle of Caphtor.
Filisxeemota hunda balleessuuf hambaa Xiiroosii fi Siidoonaa gargaaruuf hafan hundas balleessuuf guyyaan sun dhufeeraatii. Waaqayyo Filisxeemota, hambaa qarqara Kaftoor balleessuu gaʼeera.
5 Baldenes is come vpon Azzah: Ashkelon is cut vp with the rest of their valleys. Howe long wilt thou thy selfe?
Gaazaan gaddaan mataa ishee haaddatti; Ashqaloon ni calʼisti. Yaa hambaa dirree irraa isin hamma yoomiitti of ciccirtu?
6 O thou sword of the Lord, how long will it be or thou cease! turne againe into thy scaberd, rest and be still.
“Isin, ‘Yaa goraadee Waaqayyoo ati hamma yoomiitti hin boqonne? Manʼee keetti deebiʼi; calʼisii taaʼi’ jettanii iyyitu.
7 Howe can it cease, seeing the Lord hath giuen it a charge against Ashkelon, and against the sea banke? euen there hath he appointed it.
Garuu utuu Waaqayyo isa ajajuu, yeroo Waaqni akka inni Ashqaloonii fi qarqara galaanaa dhaʼuuf qajeelfama isaa kennutti inni akkamitti boqochuu dandaʼa?”
