Isaiah 3
1 For, behold, the Lord, the LORD of hosts, doth take away from Jerusalem and from Judah stay and staff, every stay of bread, and every stay of water;
Kunoo Gooftaan, Waaqayyoon Waan Hunda Dandaʼu Yerusaalemii fi Yihuudaa irraa kennaa fi gargaarsa isaa kan midhaaniitii fi kan bishaanii hunda irraa fudhata;
2 The mighty man, and the man of war; the judge, and the prophet, and the diviner, and the elder;
gootaa fi loltuu, abbaa murtiitii fi raajii, hooda himaa fi maanguddoo,
3 The captain of fifty, and the man of rank, and the counsellor, and the cunning charmer, and the skilful enchanter.
ajajaa shantamaatii fi nama ulfina qabu, gorsituu, ogeessa hojii harkaatii fi ogeessa waa dawweessuu beeku irraa fudhata.
4 And I will give children to be their princes, and babes shall rule over them.
“Ani dargaggoota qondaaltota isaanii nan godha; ijoolleen isaan bulchu.”
5 And the people shall oppress one another, every man his fellow, and every man his neighbour; the child shall behave insolently against the aged, and the base against the honourable,
Namoonni wal hacuucu; namni tokko nama kaanitti, ollaanis, ollaa isaatti kaʼa. Dargaggeessi jaarsatti, tuffatamaanis kabajamaatti kaʼa.
6 For a man shall take hold of his brother of the house of his father: 'Thou hast a mantle, be thou our ruler, and let this ruin be under thy hand.'
Namni tokko mana abbaa isaatti, obboloota isaa keessaa tokko qabee, “Ati qoloo qabda; kanaafuu bulchaa nuuf taʼi; tuullaa waan diigamee kanattis itti gaafatama fudhu!” jedha.
7 In that day shall he swear, saying: 'I will not be a healer; for in my house is neither bread nor a mantle; ye shall not make me ruler of a people.'
Inni garuu gaafas, “Ani furmaata taʼuu hin dandaʼu. Ani nyaata yookaan uffata tokko illee mana kootii hin qabu; bulchaa sabaa na hin taasisinaa” jedhee iyya.
8 For Jerusalem is ruined, and Judah is fallen; because their tongue and their doings are against the LORD, to provoke the eyes of His glory.
Yerusaalem gatantaraa jirti; Yihuudaan immoo kufteerti; dubbii isaaniitii fi gochi isaanii Waaqayyoon mormuudhaan ulfina argamuu isaa xureessa.
9 The show of their countenance doth witness against them; and they declare their sin as Sodom, they hide it not. Woe unto their soul! for they have wrought evil unto themselves.
Haalli fuula isaanii dhugaa isaanitti baʼa; isaan akkuma Sodoom cubbuu isaanii ifa baasu; isaan cubbuu isaanii hin dhokfatan. Isaaniif wayyoo! Isaan balaa guddaa ofitti fidaniiru.
10 Say ye of the righteous, that it shall be well with him; for they shall eat the fruit of their doings.
Akka wanni kun isaaniif tolu qajeeltotatti himaa; isaan buʼaa hojii isaanii nyaatu.
11 Woe unto the wicked! it shall be ill with him; for the work of his hands shall be done to him.
Hamaadhaaf wayyoo! Badiisni isatti ni dhufa! Inni gatii harka isaa ni argata.
12 As for My people, a babe is their master, and women rule over them. O My people, they that lead thee cause thee to err, and destroy the way of thy paths.
Dargaggoonni saba koo cunqursu; dubartoonni isaan bulchu. Yaa saba ko, qajeelchitoonni keessan karaa irraa isin jalʼisaniiru; isaan irraa isin gorsaniiru.
13 The LORD standeth up to plead, and standeth to judge the peoples.
Waaqayyo murtii kennuuf taaʼeera; saba isaattis muruuf kaʼeera.
14 The LORD will enter into judgment with the elders of His people, and the princes thereof: 'It is ye that have eaten up the vineyard; the spoil of the poor is in your houses;
Waaqayyo akkana jedhee maanguddootaa fi hooggantoota saba isaatti mura: “Kan iddoo dhaabaa wayinii kootii balleesse isin; wanni hiyyeeyyii irraa saamame mana keessan jira.
15 What mean ye that ye crush My people, and grind the face of the poor?' saith the Lord, the GOD of hosts.
Isin saba koo caccabsuun keessan, fuula hiyyeeyyiis butuchuun keessan maal gochuu keessan?” jedha Gooftaan, Waaqayyoon Waan Hunda Dandaʼu.
16 Moreover the LORD said: Because the daughters of Zion are haughty, and walk with stretched-forth necks and wanton eyes, walking and mincing as they go, and making a tinkling with their feet;
Waaqayyo akkana jedha; “Dubartoonni Xiyoon of tuulu; isaan morma dheereffatanii yaaʼu; ijaanis ni waammatu; faaya miilla isaanii kilillisaa cillaanfachaa deemu.
17 Therefore the Lord will smite with a scab the crown of the head of the daughters of Zion, and the LORD will lay bare their secret parts.
Kanaafuu Gooftaan mataa intallan Xiyoonitti qaaqee ni fida; Waaqayyo gubbee mataa isaanii moleessa.”
18 In that day the Lord will take away the bravery of their anklets, and the fillets, and the crescents;
Gaafas Gooftaan faaya miidhagina isaanii: albuu, marata mataa, faaya mormaa kan baatii fakkaatu,
19 the pendants, and the bracelets, and the veils;
amartii gurraa, bitawoo, haguuggii fuulaa,
20 the headtires, and the armlets, and the sashes, and the corselets, and the amulets;
Marata mataa, faaya miillaa, sabbata, bilqaaxxii shittoo, kudhaama,
21 the rings, and the nose-jewels;
qubeelaa chaappaa, amartii funyaanii
22 the aprons, and the mantelets, and the cloaks, and the girdles;
wandaboo filatamaa, koofiyyaa, qoloo, korojoo harkaa,
23 and the gauze robes, and the fine linen, and the turbans, and the mantles.
of ilaaleewwan, wayyaa quncee talbaa irraa hojjetame, gonfoo dubartootaatii fi uffata mormaa isaan irraa mulqa.
24 And it shall come to pass, that instead of sweet spices there shall be rottenness; and instead of a girdle rags; and instead of curled hair baldness; and instead of a stomacher a girding of sackcloth; branding instead of beauty.
Qooda urgaa, ajaa; qooda sabbataa, funyoo; qooda mataa sirriitti dhaʼamee, moluu; qooda uffata miidhagaa, wayyaa gaddaa; qooda miidhaginaa fokkisuutu dhufa.
25 Thy men shall fall by the sword, and thy mighty in the war.
Namoonni keessan goraadeedhaan, loltoonni keessanis lola keessatti dhumu.
26 And her gates shall lament and mourn; and utterly bereft she shall sit upon the ground.
Karri Xiyoon faarsitee boossi; isheen ontee lafa teessi.
