< Jeremias 10 >

1 Hear you the word of the Lord, which he has spoken to you, O house of Israel.
Yaa mana Israaʼel, waan Waaqayyo isiniin jedhu dhagaʼaa.
2 Thus says the Lord, Learn you not the ways of the heathen, and be not alarmed at the signs of the sky; for they are alarmed at them, [falling] on their faces.
Waaqayyo akkana jedha: “Isin karaa saboota ormaa hin baratinaa; saboonni ormaa isaan sodaatan iyyuu isin mallattoowwan samii hin sodaatinaa.
3 For the customs of the nations are vain; it is a tree cut out of the forest, the work of the carpenter, or a molten image.
Barteen uummattootaa faayidaa hin qabu; isaan bosona keessaa muka muru; ogeessi hojii harkaa immoo qottoodhaan bifa itti baasa.
4 [They are] beautified with silver and gold, they fix them with hammers and nails;
Isaanis meetii fi warqeedhaan miidhagsu; akka inni hin sochooneef burruusaa fi mismaaraan walitti qabsiisu.
5 they will set them up that they may not move; it is wrought silver, they will not walk, it is forged silver They must certainly be borne, for they can’t ride [of themselves]. Fear them not; for they can’t do any evil, and there is no good in them.
Waaqonni isaanii tolfamoon akkuma fakkeettii ittiin waa sodaachisan kan lafa qotiisaa buqqee keessaa sana dubbachuu hin dandaʼan; isaan waan deemuu hin dandeenyeef baatamuu qabu. Sababii isaan nama miidhuu yookaan waan gaarii tokko iyyuu hojjechuu hin dandeenyeef isaan hin sodaatinaa.”
6
Yaa Waaqayyo kan akka keetii tokko iyyuu hin jiru; ati guddaa dha; maqaan kees humna guddaa qaba.
7
Yaa mootii sabootaa eenyutu si hin sodaanne? Kun siif ni malaatii. Ogeeyyii sabootaa hunda keessaa, mootummoota isaanii hunda keessaas kan akka keetii tokko iyyuu hin jiru.
8
Isaan hundinuu qalbii hin qaban; gowwootas; isaan waaqota tolfamoo mukkeenii kanneen faayidaa hin qabneen qajeelfamu.
9
Meetiin tumame Tarshiishii, warqeen immoo Uufaazii fidama. Wanni ogeessi hojii mukaatii fi tumtuun warqee hojjetan, wanni hojjettoota ogummaa qabaniin hojjetaman hundi halluu cuquliisaa fi diimaa dhiilgee uffifamaniiru.
Waaqayyo garuu Waaqa dhugaa ti; inni Waaqa jiraataa, Mootii bara baraa ti. Yeroo inni dheekkamutti lafti ni hollatti; saboonnis dheekkamsa isaa dura dhaabachuu hin dandaʼan.
11 Thus shall you say to them, Let the gods which have not made heaven and earth perish from off the earth, and from under this sky.
“Isin waan kana isaanitti himaa; ‘Waaqonni samii fi lafa hin uumin kunneen lafa irraa fi samii jalaa ni barbadaaʼu.’”
12 It is the Lord that made the earth by his strength, who set up the world by his wisdom, and by his understanding stretched out the sky,
Waaqni garuu humna isaatiin lafa uume; ogummaa isaatiin addunyaa hundeesse; hubannaa isaatiinis samiiwwan diriirse.
13 and set abundance of waters in the sky, and brought up clouds from the ends of the earth; he made lightnings for the rain, and brought forth light out of his treasures.
Yommuu inni qaqawweessaʼutti bishaanonni samii ni huursu; inni akka duumessoonni daarii lafaatii ol kaʼan ni godha. Inni bokkaa wajjin balaqqee ni erga; mankuusaalee isaa keessaa immoo bubbee ni fida.
14 Every man is deprived of knowledge, every goldsmith is confounded because of his graven images; for he has cast false gods, there is no breath in them.
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.
15 They are vain works, wrought in mockery; in the time of their visitation they shall perish.
Isaan faayidaa hin qaban; meeshaa qoosaa ti. Yeroo adabbiin isaanii gaʼutti ni badu.
16 Such is not the portion of Jacob; for he that formed all things, he is his inheritance; the Lord 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.
17 He has gathered your substance from without the lodged in choice [vessels].
Ati kan marfamtee jirtu, biyyattii keessaa baʼuuf qabeenya kee walitti qabadhu.
18 For thus says the Lord, Behold, I [will] overthrow the inhabitants of this land with affliction, that your plague may be discovered.
Waaqayyo akkana jedhaatii; “Kunoo, ani amma warra biyyattii keessa jiraatan furguggisee nan baasa; akka isaan dhiphataniifis rakkina isaanitti nan fida.”
19 Alas for your ruin! your plague is grievous: and I said, Surely this is your wound, and it has overtaken you.
Waan ani miidhameef anaaf wayyoo! Madaan koo kan hin fayyinee dha! Taʼus ani ofii kootiin, “Kun dhukkuba koo ti; anis isa obsuun qaba” nan jedhe.
20 Your tabernacle is in a ruinous state, it has perished; and all your curtains have been torn asunder: my children and my cattle are no more: there is no more any place for my tabernacle, [nor] place for my curtains.
Dunkaanni koo diigameera; funyoon isaa hundis cicciteera. Ilmaan koo na dhiisanii sokkaniiru; isaan hin jiran; namni dunkaana naa dhaabu, yookaan golgaa naa hidhu tokko iyyuu hin jiru.
21 For the shepherds have become foolish, and have not sought the Lord; therefore the whole pasture has failed, and [the sheep] have been scattered.
Tiksoonni qalbii hin qaban; Waaqayyonis hin barbaaddatan; kanaafuu isaan hin milkaaʼan; bushaayeen isaanii hundinuus bittinnaaʼaniiru.
22 Behold, there comes a sound of a noise, and a great earthquake from the land of the north, to make the cities of Juda a desolation, and a resting-place for ostriches.
Kunoo, oduun, raafamni guddaan tokko biyya kaabaatii dhufaa jira! Innis magaalaawwan Yihuudaa onsee iddoo waangoonni jiraatan godha.
23 I know, O Lord, that man's way is not his own; neither shall a man go, and direct his going.
Yaa Waaqayyo, ani akka jireenyi namaa kan mataa isaa hin taʼin nan beeka; namni adeemsa isaa ofumaan qajeelfachuu dandaʼu hin jiru.
24 Chasten us, O Lord, but with judgment; and not in wrath, lest you make us few.
Yaa Waaqayyo dheekkamsa keetiin utuu hin taʼin, murtii qajeelaadhaan na sirreessi; yoo kanaa achii ati na balleessitaatii.
25 Pour out your wrath upon the nations that have not known you, and upon the families that have not called upon your name: for they have devoured Jacob, and consumed him, and have made his pasture desolate.
Saboota si hin beeknetti uummata maqaa kee hin waammannetti dheekkamsa kee dhangalaasi. Isaan Yaaqoobin nyaataniiruutii; guutumaan guutuuttis isa nyaatanii; iddoo jireenya isaa illee barbadeessaniiru.
