< Jezekiel 23 >
1 And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
Ergasii dubbiin Waaqayyoo akkana jedhee gara koo dhufe:
2 Son of man, there were two women, daughters of one mother:
“Yaa ilma namaa, dubartoota lama, intallan haadha tokkootu ture.
3 and they went a-whoring in Egypt in their youth: there their breasts fell, there they lost their virginity.
Isaanis shamarrummaa isaaniitii jalqabanii sagaagalummaadhaaf of kennuudhaan biyya Gibxi keessatti sagaagaltoota taʼan. Biyya sanattis harmi isaanii ni tuttuqame; fiixeen guntuta isaanii kan yeroo durbummaa immoo ni qaqqabatame.
4 And their names were Oola the elder, and Ooliba her sister: and they were mine, and bore sons and daughters: and [as for] their names, Samaria was Oola, and Jerusalem was Ooliba.
Ishee hangafni Oholaa, obboleettiin ishee immoo Oholaa jedhamte. Isaanis kan koo turan; ilmaanii fi intallanis daʼan. Aholaan Samaariyaa dha; Oholiibaan immoo Yerusaalemii dha.
5 And Oola went a-whoring from me, and doted on her lovers, on the Assyrians that were her neighbors,
“Oholaan utuma kan koo taatee jirtuu sagaagalummaa jalqabde; isheenis michoota ishee jechuunis loltoota Asoor kajeelte;
6 clothed with purple, princes and captains; [they were] young men and choice, all horseman riding on horses.
isaanis loltoota wayyaa bifa cuquliisaa uffatan, bulchitootaa fi ajajjoota; isaan hundinuus namoota mimmiidhagoo kanneen farda yaabbatan turan.
7 And she bestowed her fornication upon them; all were choice sons of the Assyrians: and on whoever she doted herself, with them she defiled herself in all [their] devices.
Isheenis hayyoota Asoor hundaaf sagaagalummaadhaan of kennite; waaqota tolfamoo namoota isheen kajeelte sanaa hundaanis of xureessite.
8 And she forsook not her fornication with the Egyptians: for in her youth they committed fornication with her, and they deflowered her, and poured out their fornication upon her.
Isheen sagaagalummaa ishee kan biyya Gibxi keessatti jalqabde sana hin dhiifne; yeroo shamarrummaa isheetti namoonni ishee wajjin ciisan fiixee guntuta ishee kan yeroo durbummaa qaqqabatanii dharraa sagaagalummaa isaanii ishee irratti dhangalaasan.
9 Therefore I delivered her into the hands of her lovers, into the hands of the children of the Assyrians, on whom she doted.
“Kanaafuu ani michoota ishee, Asoorota isheen dharraatetti dabarsee ishee nan kenne.
10 They uncovered her shame: they took her sons and daughters, and killed her with the sword: and she became a byword among women: and they wrought vengeance in her for the sake of the daughters.
Isaanis qullaa ishee mulʼisan; ilmaanii fi intallan ishee ni fudhatan; goraadeedhaanis ishee ajjeesan. Isheen dubartoota keessatti waan kolfaa taatee murtiin ishee irratti raawwatame.
11 And her sister Ooliba saw [it], and she indulged in her fondness more corruptly than she, and in her fornication more than the fornication of her sister.
“Obboleettiin ishee Oholiibaa waan kana argitee turte; taʼus isheen dharraa isheetii fi sagaagalummaa isheetiin obboleettii ishee caalaa xuroofte.
12 She doted upon the sons of the Assyrian, princes and captains, her neighbors, clothed with fine linen, horsemen riding on horses; [they were] all choice young men.
Akkasumas isheen Asoorota jechuunis bulchitootaa fi ajajjoota, loltoota wayyaa irraa fi jalaa uffatan, namoota farda yaabbatan kanneen hundi isaanii dargaggeeyyii mimmiidhagoo taʼan dharraate.
13 And I saw that they were defiled, [that] the two [had] one way.
Ani akka isheenis of xureessite nan arge; lachan isaanii iyyuu daandii tokko irra deemu.
14 And she increased her fornication, and she saw men painted on the wall, likenesses of the Chaldeans painted with a pencil,
“Isheen garuu sagaagalummaa ishee ittuma fufte. Fakkii namootaa kan keenyan manaa irratti fakkeeffame, fakkiiwwan Kaldootaa kan halluu diimaadhaan fakkeeffame,
15 having variegated girdles on their loins, having also richly dyed [attire] upon their heads; all had a princely appearance, the likeness of the children of the Chaldeans, of their native land.
kan mudhii isaanii irraa sabbata, mataa isaanii irraa immoo marata qaban argite; isaan hundi ajajjoota gaarii waraanaa kan Baabilonotaa, dhalattoota biyya Kaldootaa fakkaatu ture.
16 And she doted upon them as soon as she saw them, and sent forth messengers to them into the land of the Chaldeans.
Isheenis akkuma isaan argiteen isaan dharraatee gara biyya Kaldootaatti ergamoota isaanitti ergatte.
17 And the sons of Babylon came to her, into the bed of rest, and they defiled her in her fornication, and she was defiled by them, and her soul was alienated from them.
Warri Baabilonis gara ishee, gara siree jaalalaa seenanii dharraa sagaagalummaa isaaniitiin ishee xureessan. Isheenis erga isaaniin xurooftee booddee jibbitee isaan irraa garagalte.
18 And she exposed her fornication, and exposed her shame: and my soul was alienated from her, even as my soul was alienated from her sister.
Yeroo isheen ifaan ifatti sagaagalummaa ishee itti fuftee qullaa of dhaabdetti, ani akkuman obboleettii ishee irraa gara gale sana jibbaan ishee irraa nan gara gale.
19 And you did multiply your fornication, so as to call to remembrance the days of your youth, wherein you did commit whoredom in Egypt,
Taʼus isheen akkuma yeroo shamarrummaa ishee, yeroo biyya Gibxi keessatti sagaagaltuu turte sana yaadatteen sagaagalummaa ishee ittuma fufte.
20 and you did dote upon the Chaldeans, whose flesh is as the flesh of the asses, and their members [as] the members of horses.
Isheenis achitti michoota ishee kanneen dhagni saala isaanii, dhagna hormaata korma harree fakkaatu, fincaan isaanii kan dhiiraa immoo fincaan korma fardaa fakkaatu sana dharraate.
21 And you did look upon the iniquity of your youth, [the things] which you wrought in Egypt in your lodgings, where were the breasts of your youth.
Kanaafuu ati addaggummaa yeroo shamarrummaa keetii kan yeroo biyya Gibxi turtetti harmi kee qaqqabatamee guntunni kee immoo tuttuqame sana yaadatte.
22 Therefore, Ooliba, thus says the Lord; Behold, I [will] stir up your lovers against you, from whom your soul is alienated, and I will bring them upon you round about,
“Kanaafuu yaa Oholiibaa, Waaqayyo Gooftaan akkana jedha: Ani michoota kee kanneen ati xireeffattee irraa garagalte sana sitti kaasee qixa hundaan sitti nan fida.
23 the children of Babylon, and all the Chaldeans, Phacuc, and Sue, and Hychue, and all the sons of the Assyrians with them; choice young men, governors and captains, all princes and renowned, riding on horses.
Isaan kunneenis Baabilonotaa fi Kaldoota hunda, namoota Pheqood kan Shooʼaatii fi Qoʼaa turan; isaan wajjinis Asoorota hundattu ture; Asooronni kunneenis dargaggeeyyii mimmiidhagoo hundi isaanii bulchitootaa fi ajajjoota waraanaa, ajajjoota gaarii waraanaatii fi namoota sadarkaa ol aanaa kanneen hundi isaanii fardaan deeman turan.
24 And they all shall come upon you from the north, chariots and wheels, with a multitude of nations, shields and targets; and [the enemy] shall set a watch against you round about: and I will set judgment before them, and they shall take vengeance on you with their judgments.
Isaanis miʼa lolaatii fi gaarii waraanaa, gaariiwwan biraatii fi tuuta uummataa wajjin sitti dhufu; isaanis gaachana guddaa fi xinnaan, gonfoo sibiilaatiin qixa hundaan sitti hiriiru; ani dabarsee isaanitti adabbiif sin kenna; isaan akkuma seera isaaniitti si adabu.
25 And I will bring upon you my jealousy, and they shall deal with you in great wrath: they shall take away your nose and your ears; and shall cast down your remnant with the sword: they shall take your sons and your daughters; and your remnant fire shall devour.
Ani dheekkamsa koo sitti nan erga; isaanis aariidhaan sirra yaaʼu. Funyaanii fi gurra kee sirraa kutu; warri si keessaa hafan iyyuu goraadeedhaan dhumu. Isaan ilmaan keetii fi intallan kee fudhatanii deemu. Warri si keessaa hafan immoo ibiddaan barbadeeffamu.
26 And they shall strip you of your raiment, and take [away] your ornaments.
Akkasumas wayyaa kee sirraa baafatanii faaya kee miidhagaa fudhatu.
27 So I will turn back your ungodliness from you, and your fornication from the land of Egypt: and you shall not lift up your eyes upon them, and shall no more remember Egypt.
Akkasiin ani addaggummaa fi sagaagalummaa ati biyya Gibxitti jalqabde sana nan dhaaba. Ati dharraadhaan wantoota kanneen hin ilaaltu yookaan lammata biyya Gibxi hin yaadattu.
28 Therefore thus says the Lord God; Behold, I [will] deliver you into the hands of those whom you hate, from whom your soul is alienated.
“Waaqayyo Gooftaan akkana jedhaatii: Ani warra ati jibbite, kanneen ati xireeffattee irraa garagalte sanatti dabarsee sin kenna.
29 And they shall deal with you in hatred, and shall take all [the fruits] of your labors and your toils, and you shall be naked and bare: and the shame of your fornication shall be exposed: and your ungodliness and your fornication
Isaanis jibbaan sitti dhufanii waan ati itti dadhabde hunda sirraa fudhatu. Qullaa fi harka duwwaa si hambisu; qaaniin sagaagalummaa keetiis ifatti baʼa. Addaggummaan keetii fi halalummaan kee,
30 brought this upon you, in that you went a-whoring after the nations, and did defile yourself with their devices.
waan kana sitti fidaniiru; ati saboota ormaa dharraatee waaqota isaanii tolfamoodhaan of xureessiteertaatii.
31 You did walk in the way of your sister; and I will put her cup into your hands.
Ati karaa obboleettiin kee deemte irra deemteerta; kanaafuu ani harka kee keessa xoofoo ishee nan kaaʼa.
32 Thus says the Lord; Drink your sister's cup, deep and large, and full, to cause complete drunkenness.
“Waaqayyo Gooftaan akkana jedha: “Atis xoofoo guddaa fi gad fagoo, xoofoo obboleettii keetii ni dhugda; ati arrabsoo fi tuffii ni quufta; xoofoon sun dhugaatii baayʼee qabataatii.
33 And you shall be thoroughly weakened; and the cup of destruction, the cup of your sister Samaria,
Ati xoofoo obboleettii keetii kan Samaariyaatiin, xoofoo diigamuutii fi badiisaatiin, kan machiitii fi gaddaatiin ni guutamta.
34 drink you it, and I will take away her feasts and her new moons: for I have spoken [it], says the Lord.
Ati ni dhugda; keessaas ni fixxa; xoofoo sana ni caccabsita; harma kee of irraa ciccirta. Ani waan kana dubbadheera, jedha Waaqayyo Gooftaan.
35 Therefore thus says the Lord; Because you has forgotten me, and cast me behind your back, therefore receive you [the reward] of your ungodliness and your fornication.
“Kanaafuu Waaqayyo Gooftaan akkana jedha: Ati waan na irraanfattee duubatti na gatteef gatii addaggummaa keetiitii fi sagaagalummaa keetii ni argatta.”
36 And the Lord said to me, Son of man, will you not judge Oola and Ooliba? and declare to them their iniquities?
Waaqayyo akkana naan jedhe: “Yaa ilma namaa, ati Oholaa fi Oholiibaatti ni murtaa? Yoos hojii isaanii jibbisiisaa sana isaanitti himi;
37 For they have committed adultery, and blood was in their hands, they committed adultery with their devices, and they passed through the fire to them their children which they bore to me.
isaan sagaagalaniiru; dhiigni harka isaanii irra jira. Isaan waaqota isaanii tolfamoo wajjin sagaagalaniiru; isaan ijoollee naaf daʼan iyyuu nyaata godhanii isaaniif aarsaa dhiʼeessaniiru.
38 So long too as they did these things to me, they defiled my sanctuary, and profaned my sabbaths.
Dabalaniis waan kana narratti raawwatan: Yeruma sana iddoo koo qulqulluu xureessan; Sanbatoota koos ni salphisan.
39 And when they sacrificed their children to their idols, they also went into my sanctuary to profane it: and whereas they did thus in the midst of my house;
Gaafuma ijoollee isaanii waaqota tolfamoof aarsaa godhanitti iddoo koo qulqulluu seenanii xureessan. Wanni isaan mana koo keessatti godhan kanaa dha.
40 and whereas they did thus to the men that came from afar, to whom they sent messengers, and as soon as they came, immediately you did wash yourself, and did paint your eyes and adorn yourself with ornaments,
“Akka namoonni biyya fagootii dhufaniif ergamoota itti ergan; isaanis ni dhufan; yommuu isaan dhufanittis ati dhagna kee dhiqattee, ija kee kuulattee faaya kee kaaʼatte.
41 and sat on a prepared bed, and before it [there was] a table set out, and [as for] mine incense and mine oil, they rejoiced in them,
Ati siree ulfinaa irra teesse; fuula siree sanaa dura minjaala keesse; minjaala sana irras ixaana kootii fi zayitii koo keesse.
42 and they raised a sound of music, and [that] with men coming from the wilderness out of a multitude of men, and they put bracelets on their hands, and a crown of glory on their heads;
“Wacni fandalaltootaa naannoo isheetti dhagaʼame; machooftonni namoota wacan sana wajjin gammoojjiidhaa dhufanis achi turan; isaanis irree dubartii sanaattii fi kan obboleettii isheetti bitawoo, mataa isaaniitti immoo gonfoo miidhagaa kaaʼaniif.
43 Therefore I said, Do they not commit adultery with these? and has she also gone a-whoring [after] the manner of a harlot?
Anis, ‘Namoonni yeroo ishee wajjin sagaagalanitti isaan amma ejja hojjechuu isaaniitii mitii?’ nan jedhe.
44 And they went in to her, as [men] go in to a harlot; so they went in to Oola and to Ooliba to work iniquity.
Jarris ishee wajjin ciisan. Isaanis akkuma namoonni sagaagaltoota wajjin ciisan sana Oholaa fi Oholiibaa addaggeewwan sana wajjin ciisan.
45 And they are just men, and shall take vengeance on them with the judgment of an adulteress and the judgment of blood: for they are adulteresses, and blood is in their hands.
Sababii isaan ejjitoota taʼanii fi dhiigni harka isaanii irratti argameef, namoonni qajeeltonni adabbii dubartoota ejjitootaa fi dhiiga dhangalaasaniif malu isaanitti muru.
46 Thus says the Lord God, Bring up a multitude upon them, and send trouble and plunder into the midst of them.
“Waaqayyo Gooftaan akkana jedha: Ani jeeqxota itti nan kakaasa; raafamaa fi saamichaaf dabarsee isaan nan kenna.
47 And stone them with the stones of a multitude, and pierce them with their swords: they shall kill their sons and their daughters, and shall burn up their houses.
Jeeqxonni sunis dhagaan isaan tumanii goraadee isaaniitiin isaan kukkutu; ilmaan isaaniitii fi intallan isaanii fixanii manneen isaanii immoo ni gubu.
48 And I will remove ungodliness out of the land, and all the women shall be instructed, and shall not do according to their ungodliness.
“Kanaafuu akka dubartoonni hundi of eeggatanii fi isin duukaa hin buuneef ani biyyattii keessaa addaggummaa nan balleessa.
49 And your ungodliness shall be recompensed upon you, and you shall bear the guilt of your devices: and you shall know that I am the Lord.
Isin addaggummaa keessaniif ni adabamtu; gatii cubbuu keessan kan waaqota tolfamoo waaqessuudhaan hojjettan sanaa ni argattu. Ergasiis akka ani Waaqayyo Gooftaa taʼe ni beektu.”
