Lamentations 1
1 How does the city sit solitary, that was full of people! how is she become as a widow! she that was great among the nations, and princess among the provinces, how is she become tributary!
Magaalaan dur namaan guutamtee turte sun akkamitti ontee hafte! Isheen yeroo tokko saboota gidduutti guddoo turte akkamitti akka haadha hiyyeessaa taate! Isheen kutaalee biyyaa gidduutti mootii turte sun amma garbittii taateerti.
2 She weeps sore in the night, and her tears are on her cheeks: among all her lovers she has none to comfort her: all her friends have dealt treacherously with her, they are become her enemies.
Isheen halkan halkan hiqqifattee boossi; maddii ishee irra imimmaantu yaaʼa. Michoota ishee hunda keessaa kan ishee jajjabeessu tokko iyyuu hin jiru. Michoonni ishee hundinuu ishee gananiiru; isaan diinota ishee taʼaniiru.
3 Judah is gone into captivity because of affliction, and because of great servitude: she dwells among the heathen, she finds no rest: all her persecutors overtook her between the straits.
Rakkinaa fi cunqurfama guddaa booddee Yihuudaan boojiʼamtee fudhatamteerti. Isheen saboota gidduu jiraatti, lafa itti boqottu illee hin arganne. Warri ishee ariʼan hundi rakkina ishee keessatti ishee qabatan.
4 The ways of Zion do mourn, because none come to the solemn feasts: all her gates are desolate: her priests sigh, her virgins are afflicted, and she is in bitterness.
Daandiiwwan Xiyoon ni booʼu; namni ayyaana ishee kan murteeffame kabajuuf dhufu tokko iyyuu hin jiruutii. Karrawwan ishee hundi onanii jiru; luboonni ishee ni aadu; shamarran ishee ni gaddu, isheenis dhiphina guddaa keessa jirti.
5 Her adversaries are the chief, her enemies prosper; for the LORD has afflicted her for the multitude of her transgressions: her children are gone into captivity before the enemy.
Amajaajonni ishee gooftota ishee taʼaniiru; diinota isheetti toleera. Sababii cubbuu ishee baayʼee sanaatiif Waaqayyo gadda itti fideera. Ijoolleen ishee fudhatamanii deemaniiru; fuula amajaajota ishee duratti boojiʼamaniiru.
6 And from the daughter of Zion all her beauty is departed: her princes are become like harts that find no pasture, and they are gone without strength before the pursuer.
Intala Xiyoon irraa miidhaginni hundi fudhatameera. Ilmaan mootota ishee akkuma gadamsa lafa dheedaa dhabee taʼaniiru; isaan dadhabbiidhaan fuula warra isaan ariʼanii dura baqatan.
7 Jerusalem remembered in the days of her affliction and of her miseries all her pleasant things that she had in the days of old, when her people fell into the hand of the enemy, and none did help her: the adversaries saw her, and did mock at her sabbaths.
Baroota rakkinaa fi asii achi jooruu ishee keessa Yerusaalem qabeenya bara durii kan ishee ture hunda ni yaadatti. Yeroo namoonni ishee harka diinaa seenanitti namni ishee gargaaru tokko iyyuu hin turre. Diinonni ishee ishee ilaalanii badiisa isheetti kolfan.
8 Jerusalem has grievously sinned; therefore she is removed: all that honored her despise her, because they have seen her nakedness: yes, she sighs, and turns backward.
Yerusaalem akka malee cubbuu hojjette; akkasiinis xuroofte. Warri ulfina kennaniifii turan hundi ishee tuffatan; isaan qullaatti hafuu ishee arganiiruutii; isheen mataan ishee guungumtee of irra garagalti.
9 Her filthiness is in her skirts; she remembers not her last end; therefore she came down wonderfully: she had no comforter. O LORD, behold my affliction: for the enemy has magnified himself.
Xuraaʼummaan ishee wandaboo isheetti maxxane; isheen waan gara duraatti itti dhufu hin yaadne; kufaatiin ishee nama rifachiisa; kan ishee jajjabeessu tokko iyyuu hin jiru ture. “Yaa Waaqayyo rakkina koo ilaali; diinni moʼateeraatii!”
10 The adversary has spread out his hand on all her pleasant things: for she has seen that the heathen entered into her sanctuary, whom you did command that they should not enter into your congregation.
Qabeenya ishee hundatti diinni harka isaa diriirseera; isheen Namoota Ormaa warra ati akka isaan waldaa kee hin seenne dhowwite sana utuu isaan iddoo ishee qulqulluu seenanuu argite.
11 All her people sigh, they seek bread; they have given their pleasant things for meat to relieve the soul: see, O LORD, and consider; for I am become vile.
Namoonni ishee hundinuu utuma aadanuu buddeena barbaaddatu; isaan lubbuu ofii isaanii turfachuuf jecha qabeenya isaanii nyaataan geeddarratu. “Yaa Waaqayyo na ilaali, na yaadadhus; ani tuffatameeraatii.”
12 Is it nothing to you, all you that pass by? behold, and see if there be any sorrow like to my sorrow, which is done to me, with which the LORD has afflicted me in the day of his fierce anger.
“Warra karaa irra dabartan hundi, kun isiniif homaa mitii? Naannoo keessan ilaalaatii argaa. Rakkinni akka rakkina koo kan ani ittiin rakkadhe, kan Waaqayyo guyyaa dheekkamsa isaatti natti fide sanaa jiru tokko iyyuu jiraa?
13 From above has he sent fire into my bones, and it prevails against them: he has spread a net for my feet, he has turned me back: he has made me desolate and faint all the day.
“Inni ol gubbaadhaa ibidda erge; ibidda sana lafee koo keessa seensisa. Inni miilla kootiif kiyyoo diriirsee dugda duubatti na deebise; inni kophaatti na hambisee guyyaa guutuu na dadhabsiise.
14 The yoke of my transgressions is bound by his hand: they are wreathed, and come up on my neck: he has made my strength to fall, the LORD has delivered me into their hands, from whom I am not able to rise up.
“Cubbuun koo waanjootti hidhameera; isaan harka isaatiin walitti foʼaman. Isaan morma kootti rarraafaman; gooftaan humna koo dadhabsiise. Inni warra ani of irraa deebisuu hin dandeenyetti dabarsee na kenneera.
15 The LORD has trodden under foot all my mighty men in the middle of me: he has called an assembly against me to crush my young men: the LORD has trodden the virgin, the daughter of Judah, as in a wine press.
“Gooftaan gootota na keessatti argaman hunda gateera; inni dargaggoota koo caccabsuuf yaaʼii waammate. Gooftaan iddoo cuunfaa wayinii isaatti Durba Qulqullittii Intala Yihuudaa dhidhiiteera.
16 For these things I weep; my eye, my eye runs down with water, because the comforter that should relieve my soul is far from me: my children are desolate, because the enemy prevailed.
“Wanni ani booʼee iji koo imimmaaniin guutameef kanaa dha. Namni na jajjabeessuuf dhiʼoo jiru tokko iyyuu hin jiru; kan hafuura koo bayyanachiisus hin jiru. Sababii diinni humna argateef ijoolleen koo harka duwwaa hafan.”
17 Zion spreads forth her hands, and there is none to comfort her: the LORD has commanded concerning Jacob, that his adversaries should be round about him: Jerusalem is as a menstruous woman among them.
Xiyoon harka ishee balʼifatteerti; garuu namni ishee jajjabeessu tokko iyyuu hin jiru. Akka olloonni isaa amajaajota isaa taʼaniif Waaqayyo Yaaqoobitti ajajeera; Yerusaalemis gidduu isaaniitti waan xuraaʼaa taateerti.
18 The LORD is righteous; for I have rebelled against his commandment: hear, I pray you, all people, and behold my sorrow: my virgins and my young men are gone into captivity.
“Waaqayyo qajeelaa dha; taʼus ani ajajawwan isaatti fincileen ture. Yaa saboota, hundi keessan dhagaʼaa; rakkina koos ilaalaa. Dargaggoonnii fi shamarran koo boojiʼamanii fudhatamaniiru.
19 I called for my lovers, but they deceived me: my priests and my elders gave up the ghost in the city, while they sought their meat to relieve their souls.
“Ani tumsitoota koo nan waammadhe; isaan garuu na ganan. Luboonni koo fi maanguddoonni koo utuu lubbuu isaanii oolfachuuf nyaata barbaadatanuu magaalaa keessatti dhuman.
20 Behold, O LORD; for I am in distress: my bowels are troubled; my heart is turned within me; for I have grievously rebelled: abroad the sword bereaves, at home there is as death.
“Yaa Waaqayyo akka ani dhiphadhe ilaali! Ani keessa kootti dhiphadheera; garaa koo keessatti raafameera; ani nama akka malee fincilun tureetii. Alaa goraadeen nama qala; mana keessa immoo duʼa qofatu jira.
21 They have heard that I sigh: there is none to comfort me: all my enemies have heard of my trouble; they are glad that you have done it: you will bring the day that you have called, and they shall be like to me.
“Namoonni akka ani aadaa jiru dhagaʼaniiru; kan na jajjabeessu garuu hin jiru. Diinonni koo hundinuu rakkina koo dhagaʼaniiru; isaan waan ati gootetti gammadaniiru. Akka isaan akkuma koo taʼaniif maaloo ati guyyaa jette sana fidi.
22 Let all their wickedness come before you; and do to them, as you have done to me for all my transgressions: for my sighs are many, and my heart is faint.
“Hamminni isaanii hundinuu fuula kee duratti haa dhiʼaatu; waanuma sababii cubbuu koo hundaatiif natti fidde sana isaanitti illee fidi! Aaduun koo baayʼateeraatii; onneen koos dadhabdeerti.”
