Ezekiel 19
1 “And you, lift up a lamentation to princes of Israel,
“Waaʼee ilmaan mootota Israaʼeliif faarsii booʼi;
2 and you have said: What [is] your mother? A lioness, She has crouched down among lions, She has multiplied her whelps in the midst of young lions.
akkanas jedhi: “‘Haati kee leencota gidduutti, leenca akkamii turte! Isheen leencota gidduu ciiftee ilmoolee ishee guddifatte.
3 And she brings up one of her whelps, He has been a young lion, And he learns to tear prey, He has devoured man.
Ilmoolee ishee keessaas tokko guddifatte; innis leenca jabaa taʼe. Inni waa adamsee ciccirachuu barate; namootas nyaate.
4 And nations hear of him, He has been caught in their pit, And they bring him to the land of Egypt in chains.
Saboonni waaʼee isaa dhagaʼan; inni boolla isaanii keessatti qabame. Isaan hokkoodhaan harkisanii gara biyya Gibxitti isa geessan.
5 And as she waited she sees that her hope has perished, And she takes one of her whelps, She has made him a young lion.
“‘Isheen yommuu akka abdiin ishee hin guutamin, akka wanni isheen yaaddes hin milkaaʼin argitetti, ilmoolee ishee keessaa kan biraa fudhattee leenca jabaa gootee guddifte.
6 And he goes up and down in the midst of lions, He has been a young lion, And he learns to tear prey, He has devoured man.
Inni leencota gidduu biddiiqe; leenca jabaa taʼeeraatii. Inni waa adamsee ciccirachuu barate; namootas nyaate.
7 And he knows his forsaken habitations, And he has laid waste [to] their cities, And the land and its fullness is desolate, Because of the voice of his roaring.
Inni daʼannoo isaanii diige; magaalaawwan isaaniis onse. Biyyattii fi kanneen ishee keessa jiraatan hundi aaduu isaatiin raafaman.
8 And surrounding nations set against him from the provinces. And they spread out their net for him, He has been caught in their pit.
Ergasii saboonni warri kutaalee biyya naannoo sanaa jiran isatti kaʼan. Isaanis kiyyoo isaanii isa duratti diriirsan; innis boolla isaanii keessatti qabame.
9 And they put him in prison—in chains, And they bring him to the king of Babylon, They bring him into bulwarks, So that his voice is not heard On mountains of Israel anymore.
Isaan hokkoodhaan qabanii mana shiboo keessa isa kaaʼan; gara mootii Baabilonitti isa fidan. Mana hidhaatti isa galchan; kanaafuu aaduun isaa tulluuwwan Israaʼel irratti ergasii hin dhagaʼamne.
10 Your mother, like the vine in your blood, Is being planted by waters, She was bearing fruit and full of boughs, Because of many waters.
“‘Haati kee akkuma wayinii lafa qotiisaa kee keessa bishaan bira dhaabatee ti; biqiltuun sunis sababii bishaan baayʼee argatteef mistee damee hedduu baaffatte.
11 And she has strong rods for scepters of rulers, And she is high in stature above—between thick branches, And it appears in its height In the multitude of its thin shoots.
Dameewwan isaas jajjaboo bokkuu bulchaatiif taʼan turan. Isheen baalawwan gobbatan gidduutti ol dheerina isheetii fi baayʼina dameewwan isheetiin ol dheerattee mulʼatti turte.
12 And she is plucked up in fury, She has been cast to the earth, And the east wind has dried up her fruit, [The] rod of her strength has been broken and withered, Fire has consumed it.
Isheen garuu aariidhaan buqqifamtee lafatti gatamte. Bubbeen baʼa biiftuu ishee gogsee ija ishee irraa harcaase; dameewwan ishee ciccimoonis ni coollagan; ibiddis isaan fixe.
13 And now she is planted in a wilderness, In a dry and thirsty land.
Amma isheen gammoojjii keessa, lafa gogaa dheebote irra dhaabamte.
14 And fire goes forth from a rod of her boughs, It has devoured her fruit, And she has no rod of strength—a scepter to rule, A lamentation—and she has become for a lamentation!”
Damee ishee tokko keessaa ibiddi baʼee ija ishee fixe. Dameen jabaan bokkuu bulchaatiif taʼu tokko iyyuu ishee irratti hin hafne.’ Kun faaruu booʼichaa kan booʼichaaf itti fayyadamanii dha.”
