Isaiah 35
1 The wilderness and the solitary place shall be glad for them; and the desert shall rejoice, and blossom as the rose.
Gammoojjii fi lafti gogaan ni gammadu; lafti onaan ni ililcha; ni daraaras. Akka arfaasee,
2 It shall blossom abundantly, and rejoice even with joy and singing: the glory of Lebanon shall be given unto it, the excellency of Carmel and Sharon, they shall see the glory of the LORD, and the excellency of our God.
baayʼinaan daraara; akka malee gammadees ililcha. Ulfinni Libaanoon, surraan Qarmeloosii fi Shaaroon ni kennamaaf; isaan ulfina Waaqayyoo, surraa Waaqa keenyaas ni argu.
3 Strengthen all of you the weak hands, and confirm the feeble knees.
Harka dadhabe jajjabeessaa; jilba laafes cimsaa;
4 Say to them that are of a fearful heart, Be strong, fear not: behold, your God will come with vengeance, even God with a recompence; he will come and save you.
warra garaan isaanii sodaatuun akkana jedhaa: “Jabaadhaa; hin sodaatinaa; Waaqni keessan ni dhufa; inni haaloo baasuuf dhufa; gatii malu qabatee isin oolchuuf ni dhufa.”
5 Then the eyes of the blind shall be opened, and the ears of the deaf shall be unstopped.
Ergasii iji nama jaamaa ni banama; gurri nama duudaas ni dhagaʼa.
6 Then shall the lame man leap as an hart, and the tongue of the dumb sing: for in the wilderness shall waters break out, and streams in the desert.
Gaafas namni naafti akkuma gadamsaa utaala; arrabni hidhamaanis gammachuudhaan faarfata. Bishaan gammoojjii keessaa, burqaanis gammoojjii keessaa cabsee baʼa.
7 And the parched ground shall become a pool, and the thirsty land springs of water: in the habitation of dragons, where each lay, shall be grass with reeds and rushes.
Lafti nama gubu haroo, lafti gogaan immoo burqaa bishaanii taʼa. Boolla duraan waangoonni keessa ciisan irratti marga, shambaqqoo fi dhallaadduutu biqila.
8 And an highway shall be there, and a way, and it shall be called The way of holiness; the unclean shall not pass over it; but it shall be for those: the travelling men, though fools, shall not go astray therein.
Karaan guddaan tokko achi ni jiraata; innis, Karaa Qulqullinaa jedhamee waamama; inni warra Karaa sana irra deemaniif taʼa. “Xuraaʼonni” isa irra hin deeman; gowwoonni achiinuu hin baʼan.
9 No lion shall be there, nor any ravenous beast shall go up thereon, it shall not be found there; but the redeemed shall walk there:
Leenci achitti hin argamu; yookaan bineensi hamaan achi irra hin baʼu; isaan achitti hin argaman. Garuu warra furaman qofatu achi irra deema;
10 And the ransomed of the LORD shall return, and come to Zion with songs and everlasting joy upon their heads: they shall obtain joy and gladness, and sorrow and sighing shall flee away.
warri Waaqayyo isaan fure ni deebiʼu. Isaan faarfannaadhaan Xiyoon seenu; gammachuun bara baraa mataa isaanii irra jiraata. Isaan gammachuu fi ililleedhaan guutamu; gaddii fi booʼichi isaan irraa fagaatu.
