Jeremiah 51
1 Thus sayth the Lord, Beholde, I wil raise vp against Babel, and against the inhabitants that lift vp their heart against me, a destroying wind,
Waaqayyo akkana jedha: “Kunoo ani Baabilonii fi saba ishee keessa jiraatutti bubbee waa balleessu nan kaasa.
2 And wil send vnto Babel fanners that shall fanne her, and shall empty her land: for in the day of trouble they shalbe against her on euery side.
Ani akka isaan gingilchanii ishee balleessaniif ormoota Baabilonitti nan erga; isaan gaafa badiisa ishee, karaa hundaanuu isheen mormu.
3 Also to the bender that bendeth his bowe, and to him that lifteth himselfe vp in his brigandine, will I say, Spare not her yong men, but destroy all her hoste.
Abbaan xiyyaa iddaa isaa hin aggaamin, yookaan miʼa lolaa hin hidhatin. Dargaggoota ishee hin baasinaa; loltoota ishee illee guutumaan guutuutti barbadeessaa.
4 Thus the slaine shall fall in the lande of the Caldeans, and they that are thrust through in her streetes.
Isaan qalamanii Baabilon keessa ni harcaafamu; daandiiwwan ishee irrattis ni madaaʼu.
5 For Israel hath bene no widowe, nor Iudah from his God, from the Lord of hostes, though their lande was filled with sinne against the holy one of Israel.
Yoo biyyi isaanii fuula Qulqullicha Israaʼel duratti yakkaan guutamtee jiraatte iyyuu Waaqni isaanii, Waaqayyoon Waan Hunda Dandaʼu Israaʼelii fi Yihuudaa hin ganne.
6 Flee out of the middes of Babel, and deliuer euery man his soule: be not destroyed in her iniquitie: for this is the time of the Lordes vengeance he will render vnto her a recompence.
“Baabilon keessaa baqadhaa! Lubbuu keessan oolfadhaa! Isin sababii cubbuu isheetiif hin dhuminaa. Yeroon kun yeroo haaloo baʼuu Waaqayyoo ti; innis gatii isheef malu ni kennaaf.
7 Babel hath bene as a golden cuppe in the Lordes hand, that made all the earth drunken: the nations haue drunken of her wine, therefore do the nations rage.
Baabilon harka Waaqayyoo keessatti xoofoo warqee turte; isheen guutummaa lafaa ni macheessite. Saboonni daadhii wayinii ishee dhugan; kanaafuu amma maraataniiru.
8 Babel is suddenly fallen, and destroyed: howle for her, bring balme for her sore, if she may be healed.
Baabilon akkuma tasaa kuftee caccabdi; isheef booʼaa! Qoricha isheen madaa dibattu fidaafii; tarii isheen ni fayyiti taʼaatii.
9 We would haue cured Babel, but she could not be healed: forsake her, and let vs go euery one into his owne countrey: for her iudgement is come vp vnto heauen, and is lifted vp to ye cloudes.
“‘Nu Baabilonin fayyisu yaalleerra; isheen garuu fayyuu hin dandeessu; kottaa tokkoon tokkoon keenya ishee dhiifnee gara biyya ofii keenyaatti haa qajeellu; murtiin ishee hamma samiitti ol baʼee, hamma duumessaatti ol fagaateeraatii.’
10 The Lord hath brought forth our righteousnesse: come and let vs declare in Zion the worke of the Lord our God.
“‘Waaqayyo qajeelummaa keenya dhugaa nuu baʼeera; kottaa, waan Waaqayyo Waaqni keenya hojjete Xiyoon keessatti haa odeessinu.’
11 Make bright the arrowes: gather the shieldes: the Lord hath raised vp the spirit of the King of the Medes: for his purpose is against Babel to destroy it, because it is the vengeance of the Lord, and the vengeance of his Temple.
“Xiyya qaradhaa; gaachana illee fudhadhaa! Sababii kaayyoon isaa Baabilonin balleessuu taʼeef Waaqayyo mootota Meedee kakaaseera. Waaqayyo haaloo ni baʼa; mana qulqullummaa isaatii haaloo ni baʼa.
12 Set vp the standart vpon the walles of Babel, make the watch strong: set vp the watchmen: prepare the skoutes: for the Lord hath both deuised, and done that which he spake against the inhabitantes of Babel.
Dallaa Baabilonitti faajjii kaasaa! Eegumsa jajjabeessaa; eegduu dhaabaa; warra riphee eeggatu qopheessaa! Waaqayyo kaayyoo isaa waan saba Baabilonitti mure sana fiixaan baafata.
13 O thou that dwellest vpon many waters, abundant in treasures, thine ende is come, euen the ende of thy couetousnes.
Ati kan bishaan baayʼee qabdu, kan qabeenyaanis badhaate, dhumni kee dhufeera; yeroon ati itti baddu gaʼeera.
14 The Lord of hostes hath sworne by him selfe, saying, Surely I will fill thee with men, as with caterpillers, and they shall cry and shoute against thee.
Waaqayyo Waan Hunda Dandaʼu ofiin kakateera: Ani dhugumaan namoota akkuma hoomaa hawwaannisaa sitti gad dhiisa; isaanis moʼannaadhaan sitti dhaadatu.
15 He hath made the earth by his power, and established the world by his wisedome, and hath stretched out the heauen by his discretion.
“Inni humna isaatiin lafa uume; ogummaa isaatiin addunyaa hundeesse; hubannaa isaatiinis samiiwwan diriirse.
16 Hee giueth by his voyce the multitude of waters in the heauen, and he causeth the cloudes to ascend from the endes of the earth: he turneth lightnings to raine, and bringeth forth the winde out of his treasures.
Yommuu inni qaqawweessaʼutti bishaanonni samii ni huursu; inni akka duumessoonni daarii lafaatii ol kaʼan ni godha. Bokkaa wajjin balaqqee ni erga; mankuusaalee isaa keessaa immoo bubbee ni fida.
17 Euery man is a beast by his owne knowledge: euery founder is confounded by the grauen image: for his melting is but falsehood, and there is no breath therein.
“Tokkoon tokkoon namaa gowwaa fi kan beekumsa hin qabnee dha; tokkoon tokkoon tumtuu warqee waaqota tolfamoo isaatiin qaaneffama. Fakkiiwwan inni tolchu kan sobaa ti; isaan hafuura baafatan of keessaa hin qaban.
18 They are vanitie, and the worke of errours: in the time of their visitation they shall perish.
Isaan faayidaa hin qaban; meeshaa qoosaa ti; yeroo adabbiin isaanii gaʼutti ni badu.
19 The portion of Iaakob is not like them: for he is the maker of all things, and Israel is the rodde of his inheritance: the Lord of hostes is his Name.
Inni qooda Yaaqoob taʼe sun garuu akka warra kanaa miti; inni uumaa waan hundumaa ti; Israaʼel immoo gosa dhaala isaa ti; maqaan isaas Waaqayyoo Waan Hunda Dandaʼuu dha.
20 Thou art mine hammer, and weapons of warre: for with thee will I breake the nations, and with thee wil I destroy kingdomes,
“Ati bokkuu koo kan duulaa miʼa lolaa kootii ti; ani siin saboota nan caccabsa; siin mootummoota nan barbadeessa;
21 And by thee wil I breake horse and horseman, and by thee will I breake the charet and him that rideth therein.
Ani siin fardaa fi yaabbataa fardaa nan caccabsa; siin gaarii fi ooftuu isaa nan caccabsa;
22 By thee also will I breake man and woman, and by thee wil I breake olde and yong, and by thee wil I breake the yong man and the mayde.
ani siin dhiiraa dubartoota nan caccabsa; siin jaarsaa dargaggeessa nan caccabsa; siin gaʼeessaa fi shamarree nan caccabsa;
23 I wil also breake by thee the shepheard and his flocke, and by thee will I breake the husband man and his yoke of oxen, and by thee will I breake the dukes and princes.
ani siin tiksee fi bushaayee nan caccabsa; siin qottuu fi qotiyyoo nan caccabsa; siin bulchitootaa fi qondaaltota nan caccabsa.
24 And I will render vnto Babel, and to all the inhabitants of the Caldeans all their euil, that they haue done in Zion, euen in your sight, sayth the Lord.
“Ani utuma iji keessan arguu waan isaan Xiyoon godhan hundaaf Baabilonii fi warra Baabilon keessa jiraatan hundaaf gatii isaanii nan kenna” jedha Waaqayyo.
25 Beholde, I come vnto thee, O destroying mountaine, sayth the Lord, which destroyest all the earth: and I will stretch out mine hand vpon thee, and rolle thee downe from the rockes, and wil make thee a burnt mountaine.
“Yaa tulluu barbadeessaa, ati kan lafa hunda balleessitu ani sitti kaʼeera; ani harka koo sitti nan kaafadha; ededa irraa gad gangalchee tulluu gubamaa sin godha” jedha Waaqayyo.
26 They shall not take of thee a stone for a corner, nor a stone for foundations, but thou shalt be destroyed for euer, sayth the Lord.
“Waan ati bara baraan ontuuf, kattaan dhagaa golee taʼu, yookaan dhagaan hundeef taʼu tokko iyyuu si keessaa hin fudhatamu” jedha Waaqayyo.
27 Set vp a standard in the lande: blowe the trumpets among the nations: prepare the nations against her: call vp the kingdomes of Ararat, Minni, and Ashchenaz against her: appoynt the prince against her: cause horses to come vp as the rough caterpillers.
“Biyyattii keessatti faajjii ol qabaa! Saboota gidduuttis malakata afuufaa! Saboota waraanaaf isheetti qopheessaa; mootummoota Araaraat, kan Miiniitii fi Ashkenas isheetti waamaa. Ajajaa waraanaa isheetti shuumaa; fardeen akka hoomaa hawwaannisaa itti ergaa.
28 Prepare against her the nations with the Kings of the Medes, the dukes thereof, and the princes thereof, and all the land of his dominion.
Ishee waraanuudhaaf saboota jechuunis, mootota Meedee bulchitoota isaaniitii fi qondaaltota isaanii hunda, biyyoota isaan bulchan hundas qopheessaa.
29 And the land shall tremble and sorow: for the deuise of the Lord shalbe performed against Babel, to make the lande of Babel waste without an inhabitant.
Sababii wanni Waaqayyo akka namni tokko iyyuu achi hin jiraanneef biyya Baabilon onsuuf Baabilonitti karoorfate sun jabaatee dhaabatuuf biyyattiin ni raafamti; ni dhidhiitattis.
30 The strong men of Babel haue ceased to fight: they haue remayned in their holdes: their strength hath fayled, and they were like women: they haue burnt her dwelling places, and her barres are broken.
Gootonni Baabilon lola dhiisaniiru; isaan daʼannoo isaanii keessatti hafaniiru. Jabinni isaanii dhumeera; isaan akkuma dubartootaa taʼaniiru. Iddoo jireenya isheetti ibiddi qabsiifameera; danqaraawwan balbala ishees caccabaniiru.
31 A post shall runne to meete the post, and a messenger to meete the messenger, to shew the King of Babel, that his citie is taken on a side thereof,
Akka magaalaan isaa moggaa hamma moggaatti qabamte mootii Baabilonitti himuuf, fiigduun tokko isa kaan qaqqabuuf, ergamaan tokkos ergamaa kaan qaqqabuuf fiiga;
32 And that the passages are stopped, and the reedes burnt with fire, and the me of war troubled.
kunis akka malkaan qabame, akka daʼannoowwan ishee gubamanii fi akka loltoonni ishee naʼan himuudhaaf.”
33 For thus sayth the Lord of hosts the God of Israel, the daughter of Babel is like a threshing floore: the time of her threshing is come: yet a litle while, and the time of her haruest shall come.
Waaqayyo Waan Hunda Dandaʼu, Waaqni Israaʼel akkana jedha: “Intalli Baabilon akkuma oobdii ti; yeroo sanatti isheen ni dhidhiitamti; yeroon isheen itti haamamtus dafee ni dhufa.”
34 Nebuchad-nezzar the King of Babel hath deuoured me, and destroyed me: he hath made me an emptie vessel: he swallowed mee vp like a dragon, and filled his belly with my delicates, and hath cast me out.
“Nebukadnezar mootiin Baabilon na nyaateera; inni barbadeesseera; akkuma okkotee duwwaa na godhe. Inni akkuma jawwee na liqimse; qabeenya koo filatamaadhaanis garaa guuttate; ergasii immoo na tufe.”
35 The spoyle of me, and that which was left of me, is brought vnto Babel, shall the inhabitant of Zion say: and my blood vnto the inhabitantes of Caldea, shall Ierusalem say.
Jiraattonni Xiyoon, “Dabni foon keenyatti hojjetame Baabilonitti illee haa dhufu” jedhan. Yerusaalemis, “Dhiigni keenya warra Baabilon keessa jiraatan haaloo haa baʼu” jetti.
36 Therefore thus sayth the Lord, Beholde, I will maintayne thy cause, and take vengeance for thee, and I will drie vp the sea, and drie vp her springes.
Kanaafuu Waaqayyo akkana jedha: “Kunoo, ani dubbii kee siif falmee haaloo siifin baʼa; ani galaana ishee nan gogsa; burqaa ishee illee nan kuta.
37 And Babel shall be as heapes, a dwelling place for dragons, an astonishment, and an hissing, without an inhabitant.
Baabilon tuullaa diigame, iddoo waangoonni keessa burraaqan, waan naasuutii fi qoosaa, lafa namni tokko iyyuu irra hin jiraanne ni taati.
38 They shall rore together like lions, and yell as the lyons whelpes.
Sabni ishee hundi akka saafela leencaa ni aada; isaanis akka ilmaan leencaa gururiʼu.
39 In their heate I will make them feastes, and I wil make them drunken, that they may reioyce, and sleepe a perpetual sleepe, and not wake, sayth the Lord.
Yommuu dhagni isaanii hoʼutti, ani akka isaan kolfaa gammadanii bara baraan rafanii hin dammaqneef cidha isaaniif qopheessee akka isaan machaaʼan nan godha” jedha Waaqayyo.
40 I wil bring them downe like lambes to the slaughter, and like rams and goates.
“Ani akka ilmoolee hoolaa, akkuma korbeeyyii hoolaatii fi reʼee gara qalmaatti gad isaan buusa.
41 How is Sheshach taken! and howe is the glory of the whole earth taken! how is Babel become an astonishment among the nations!
“Sheeshaak akkamitti boojiʼamti! Boonuun lafa hundaas akkamitti qabame! Baabilon saba gidduutti akkam waan sodaa taati!
42 The sea is come vp vpon Babel: he is couered with the multitude of the waues thereof.
Baabilon irra galaanni garagala; dambaliin galaanaas ishee haguuga.
43 Her cities are desolate: the land is dry and a wildernes, a land wherein no man dwelleth, neither doth the sonne of man passe thereby.
Magaalaawwan ishee onanii biyya gogaa fi gammoojjii, biyya namni tokko iyyuu keessa hin jiraanne, kan namni keessa hin dabarre ni taʼu.
44 I wil also visite Bel in Babel, and I wil bring out of his mouth, that which he hath swallowed vp, and the nations shall runne no more vnto him, and the wall of Babel shall fall.
Ani Baabilon keessatti Beelin nan adaba; waan inni liqimse illee nan tufsiisa. Saboonni lammata gara isaatti hin yaaʼan; dallaan Baabilonis ni jiga.
45 My people, go out of the middes of her, and deliuer yee euery man his soule from the fierce wrath of the Lord,
“Yaa saba ko, ishee keessaa baʼaa! Lubbuu keessan oolfachuuf fiigaa! Dheekkamsa Waaqayyoo sodaachisaa sana jalaa baqadhaa.
46 Least your heart euen faynt, and ye feare the rumour, that shalbe heard in the land: the rumour shall come this yeere, and after that in the other yeere shall come a rumour, and crueltie in the land, and ruler against ruler.
Yeroo oduun biyya keessatti dhagaʼamutti garaan keessan hin raafamin yookaan hin sodaatin; akka gooliin biyya keessa jiru, akka bulchaan tokko bulchaa kaanitti kaʼu, oduun tokko barana, kaan immoo bara dhufu dhagaʼama.
47 Therefore beholde, the dayes come, that I will visite the images of Babel, and the whole land shalbe confounded, and all her slayne shall fall in the middes of her.
Yeroon ani itti waaqota Baabilon tolfamoo adabu dhugumaan ni dhufaatii; biyyi ishee guutumaan guutuutti ni salphatti; qalamtoonni ishee hundis ishee keessatti kukkufu.
48 Then the heauen and the earth, and all that is therein, shall reioyce for Babel: for the destroyers shall come vnto her from the North, saith the Lord.
Ergasii samii fi lafti, wanni isaan keessa jiru hundis, gammadanii Baabilonitti ililchu; barbadeessitoonni kaabaa baʼanii ishee waraanuutii” jedha Waaqayyo.
49 As Babel caused the slaine of Israel to fal, so by Babel the slaine of all the earth did fall.
“Akkuma qalamtoonni lafa irraa hundi sababii Baabiloniif harcaʼan sana Baabilonis sababii qalamtoota Israaʼeliif harcaʼuu qabdi.
50 Ye that haue escaped the sworde, goe away, stand not still: remember the Lord a farre of, and let Ierusalem come into your minde.
Isin warri goraadee jalaa miliqxan, deemaa; lafa irra hin harkifatinaa! Biyya fagootti illee Waaqayyoon yaadadhaa; waaʼee Yerusaalemis yaadaa.”
51 Wee are confounded because wee haue heard reproch: shame hath couered our faces, for straungers are come into the Sanctuaries of the Lordes House.
“Sababii ormoonni iddoo qulqullaaʼaa mana Waaqayyootti qalaniif, nu salphifamneerra; waan arrabsamneefis qaaniidhaan fuula keenya haguugganne.”
52 Wherefore behold, the dayes come, sayth the Lord, that I will visite her grauen images, and through all her land the wounded shall grone.
“Garuu barri ani itti, waaqota ishee tolfamoo adabuu fi yeroon guutummaa lafa ishee irratti warri madaaʼan aadan dhufaa jira” jedha Waaqayyo.
53 Though Babel should mount vp to heauen, and though shee should defend her strength on hye, yet from mee shall her destroyers come, sayth the Lord.
“Yoo Baabilon samiitti ol baatee daʼannoo ishee ol dheeraa jabeeffatte iyyuu, ani warra ishee barbadeessan itti nan erga” jedha Waaqayyo.
54 A sound of a cry commeth from Babel, and great destruction from the land of the Caldeans,
“Baabilonii iyyi, lafa Baabilonotaatii immoo sagaleen badiisa guddaa ni dhagaʼama.
55 Because the Lord hath layde Babel waste and destroyed from her the great voyce, and her waues shall roare like great waters, and a sounde was made by their noyse:
Waaqayyos Baabilonin ni barbadeessa; inni waca ishee ni calʼisiisa, dambaliin isaaniis akkuma bishaan guddaa ni huursa; sagaleen huursaa isaaniis ni dhagaʼama.
56 Because the destroyer is come vpon her, euen vpon Babel, and her strong men are taken, their bowes are broken: for the Lord God that recompenceth, shall surely recompence.
Barbadeessaan tokko Baabilonitti ni dhufa; gootonni ishee ni qabamu; futtaaftuun isaaniis ni caccaba; Waaqayyo, Waaqa haaloo baʼuudhaatii; inni guutumaan guutuutti gatii ishee ni deebisaaf.
57 And I will make drunke her princes, and her wise men, her dukes, and her nobles, and her strong men: and they shall sleepe a perpetuall sleepe, and not wake, sayth the King, whose Name is the Lord of hostes.
Ani qondaaltotaa fi ogeeyyii ishee, akkasumas bulchitoota, ajajjoota waraanaatii fi gootota ishee nan macheessa; isaanis bara baraan ni rafu; hin dammaqanis,” jedha mootichi maqaan isaa Waaqayyo Waan Hunda Dandaʼu, jedhamu sun.
58 Thus saith the Lord of hostes, The thicke wall of Babel shalbe broken, and her hie gates shall be burnt with fire, and the people shall labour in vaine, and the folke in ye fire, for they shalbe weary.
Waaqayyo Waan Hunda Dandaʼu akkana jedha; “Dallaan Baabilon yabbuun sun ni jiga; karrawwan ishee dhedheeroon ibiddaan gubamu; namoonni akkasumaan of dadhabsiisu; dadhabbiin sabootaa qoraan ibiddaa qofa taʼa.”
59 The worde which Ieremiah the Prophet commanded Sheraiah the sonne of Neriiah, the sonne of Maaseiah, when he went with Zedekiah the King of Iudah into Babel, in the fourth yeere of his reigne: and this Sheraiah was a peaceable prince.
Yeroo Seraayaan ilmi Neeriyaa, ilmi Mahiseyaa bara Zedeqiyaa mooticha Yihuudaa keessa waggaa afuraffaatti mooticha wajjin gara Baabilon deemetti ajajni Ermiyaas Raajichi isaaf kenne kanaa dha.
60 So Ieremiah wrote in a booke all the euill that should come vpon Babel: euen al these things, that are written against Babel.
Ermiyaas badiisa Baabilonitti dhufu hunda, jechuunis waaʼee Baabilon kan barreeffame hunda kitaaba maramaa irratti barreessee ture.
61 And Ieremiah sayd to Sheraiah, Whe thou commest vnto Babel, and shalt see, and shalt reade all these wordes,
Innis Seraayaadhaan akkana jedhe; “Yommuu Baabilon geessutti dubbii kana hunda sagalee ol fudhattee dubbisuu hin dagatin.
62 Then shalt thou say, O Lord, thou hast spoken against this place, to destroy it, that none should remaine in it, neither man nor beast, but that it should be desolate for euer.
Akkanas jedhi: ‘Yaa Waaqayyo, akka namni yookaan horiin ishee keessa hin jiraanneef ati akka iddoo kana barbadeessitu dubbatteerta; isheenis bara baraan ni onti.’
63 And when thou hast made an ende of reading this booke, thou shalt binde a stone to it, and cast it in the middes of Euphrates,
Yeroo kitaaba maramaa kana dubbiftee fixxutti dhagaa itti hidhiitii Laga Efraaxiisitti darbadhu.
64 And shalt say, Thus shall Babel be drowned, and shall not rise from the euil, that I will bring vpon her: and they shall be weary. Thus farre are the wordes of Ieremiah.
Akkanas jedhi; ‘Sababii badiisa ani isheetti fiduutiin akka lammata hin kaaneef Baabilon akkasitti ni liqimfamti. Uummanni ishees ni harcaʼa.’” Dubbiin Ermiyaas as irratti raawwatama.
