< Malachi 3 >
1 Behold, I will send my messenger, and he shall clear out the way before me: and suddenly will come to his temple the Lord, whom ye seek; and the messenger of the covenant, whom ye desire for, behold, he is coming, saith the Lord of hosts.
Rabbiga ciidammadu wuxuu leeyahay, Bal eega, waxaan soo dirayaa wargeeyahayga, oo isna jidka ayuu hortayda ku sii diyaargarayn doonaa. Oo Sayidka aad doondoonaysaanna dhaqsiyuu macbudkiisa u iman doonaa, oo bal eega, wargeeyihii axdiga oo aad ku faraxdaanna wuu imanayaa.
2 But who can sustain the day of his coming? and who can stand when he appeareth? for he is like the fire of the melter, and like the lye of the washers:
Laakiinse bal yaa u adkaysan kara maalinta imaatinkiisa? Bal yaase taagnaan doona markuu muuqdo? Waayo, isagu waa sida dabka lacagmiiraha iyo sida saabuunta dharmaydhaha.
3 And he will sit as a melter and purifier of silver; and he will purify the sons of Levi, and refine them as gold and silver, that they may offer unto the Lord an offering in righteousness
Oo wuxuu u fadhiyi doonaa sida kan lacagta miira oo safeeya, oo reer Laawi wuu daahirin doonaa, oo iyaguu u safayn doonaa sida dahabka iyo lacagta loo safeeyo, oo iyana si xaqnimo ah ayay Rabbiga qurbaanno ugu bixin doonaan.
4 And then shall be pleasant unto the Lord the offerings of Judah and Jerusalem, as in the days of old, and as in former years.
Markaasaa qurbaanka dadka Yahuudah iyo kan reer Yeruusaalem noqon doona mid Rabbigu ku farxo, sidii waagii hore iyo sidii sannadihii qadiimka ahaa.
5 And I will come near unto you to [hold] judgment; and I will be a swift witness against the sorcerers, and against the adulterers, and against those that swear falsely, and against those that withhold the wages of the hired laborer, [oppress] the widow, and the fatherless, and that do injustice to the stranger, and fear me not, saith the Lord of hosts.
Oo anigu waan idiin soo dhowaan doonaa inaan idin xukumo aawadeed, oo markhaati dheereeya baan ku noqon doonaa saaxiriinta, iyo dhillayada, iyo dhaarbeenlowyada, iyo kuwa shaqaale mushahaaradiisa ku dulma, iyo kuwa carmalka iyo agoonta dhiba, iyo kuwa qariibka gartiisa ka qalloociya, iyo kuwa aan iga cabsan, ayaa Rabbiga ciidammadu leeyahay.
6 For I the Lord, —I have not changed: and ye sons of Jacob—ye have not ceased to be.
Ilma Yacquubow, anigoo Rabbiga ah isma beddelo, haddaba sidaas daraaddeed idinku ma aydaan wada baabbi'in.
7 From the days of your fathers did ye depart from my statutes, and did not keep them; return unto me, and I will return unto you, saith the Lord of hosts; but ye say, Wherein shall we return?
Tan iyo wakhtigii awowayaashiin ayaad amarradaydii gees uga leexanayseen, oo ma aydaan dhawraynin iyagii. Haddaba Rabbiga ciidammadu wuxuu leeyahay, Xaggayga u soo noqda, oo anna waan idiin soo noqon doonaa. Laakiinse idinku waxaad tidhaahdaan, Sidee baannu u noqonaynaa?
8 Can a man rob God, that ye will rob me? But ye say, Wherein have we robbed thee? In tithes and in heave-offerings.
Nin miyuu Rabbiga dhacaa? Idinkuse waad i dhacdaan. Laakiinse waxaad tidhaahdaan, Maxaannu kaa dhacnay? Waxaad iga dhacdeen meeltobnaadyo iyo qurbaanno.
9 With the curse are ye cursed, and yet me do ye rob, O ye entire nation!
Idinku, quruuntiinnan oo dhammu, waxaad ku inkaaran tihiin inkaartii, waayo, waad i dhacdaan.
10 Bring ye all the tithes into the store-house, that there may be provision in my house, and prove me but herewith, saith the Lord of hosts, if I will not open for you the windows of heaven, and pour out for you a blessing, until it be more than enough.
Rabbiga ciidammadu wuxuu leeyahay, Meeltobnaadyada oo dhan khasnadda soo geliya in gurigayga cunto ku jirto aawadeed, oo haddaba taas igu tijaabiya, haddii aan idiin furi waayo daaqadaha samada, oo aan idinkaga soo shubi waayo barako aan meel qaadi karta la arag.
11 And I will rebuke for you the devourer, and he shall not destroy for you the fruit of the ground: and the vine shall not cast its fruit for you before the time in the field, saith the Lord of hosts.
Rabbiga ciidammadu wuxuu leeyahay, Daraaddiin baan u canaanan doonaa kan wax cuna, oo isna midhaha dhulkiinna ma uu baabbi'in doono, oo canabkiinna beerta ku yaallana xilligiisa ka hor midhihiisa ma xoori doono.
12 And all the nations shall call you blessed; for ye shall be a land of delight, saith the Lord of hosts.
Oo Rabbiga ciidammadu wuxuu leeyahay, Quruumaha oo dhammu waxay idiinku yeedhi doonaan, Kuwa barakaysan, waayo, idinku waxaad ahaan doontaan dal aad u faraxsan.
13 Your words have been strong against me, saith the Lord; but ye say, What have we spoken among us against thee?
Rabbigu wuxuu leeyahay, Erayadiinnii waxay ahaayeen erayo adag oo iga gees ah, idinkuse waxaad tidhaahdaan, Goormaannu wax kaa sheegnay?
14 Ye have said, It is vain to serve God: and what profit is it that we have kept his charge, and that we have walked contritely before the Lord of hosts?
Waxaad tidhaahdeen, In Rabbiga loo adeego waxtar ma leh, oo bal maxaa faa'iido ah oo noogu jira haddaannu amarkiisii dhawrnay, iyo xataa haddaannu murugaysnaan Rabbiga ciidammada kula hor soconnay?
15 And now we call the presumptuous happy: yea, built up are those that practise wickedness; yea, they have even tempted God and are [yet] suffered to escape.
Oo haatan waxaannu kuwa kibirka leh ugu yeedhnaa, Kuwa barakaysan, kuwa xumaanta ka shaqeeyaa way barwaaqoobaan; xataa Ilaah way jirrabaan, oo haddana way samatabbaxaan.
16 Then conversed they that fear the Lord one with the other: and the Lord listened and heard it, and there was written a book of remembrance before him for those who fear the Lord, and for those who respect his name.
Markaasaa kuwii Rabbiga ka cabsaday midkood baa midka kale la hadlay, oo Rabbiguna wuu dhegaystay oo wuu maqlay, oo hortiisa kitaab xusuuseed baa loogu qoray kuwii Rabbiga ka cabsaday, iyo kuwii magiciisa ka fiirsaday.
17 And they shall be mine, saith the Lord of hosts, on that day which I create as a special treasure: and I will spare them, as a man spareth his son that serveth him.
Oo Rabbiga ciidammadu wuxuu leeyahay, Maalintii aan saas sameeyo waxay ii noqon doonaan kuwaygii, iyo xataa khasnad khaas ah, oo waan u tudhi doonaa sida nin ugu tudho wiilkiisa u adeega.
18 And ye shall return, and see the difference between the righteous and the wicked, between him that serveth God and him that hath not served him.
Markaasaad soo noqon doontaan oo waxaad kala garan doontaan kan xaqa ah iyo kan sharka ah, iyo kan Ilaah u adeega iyo kan aan isaga u adeegin.
