Jeremiah 7
1 The word that came to Jeremiah from the LORD, saying,
Dubbiin Waaqayyo biraa gara Ermiyaas dhufe isa kanaa dha;
2 "Stand in the gate of the LORD's house, and proclaim there this word, and say, 'Hear the word of the LORD, all you of Judah, who enter in at these gates to worship the LORD.
“Balbala mana Waaqayyoo dura dhaabadhuutii akkana jedhii ergaa kana labsi: “‘Isin sabni Yihuudaa warri Waaqayyoon waaqeffachuuf balbalawwan kanneeniin ol seentan hundi dubbii Waaqayyoo dhagaʼaa.
3 Thus says the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, Amend your ways and your doings, and I will cause you to dwell in this place.
Waaqayyo Waan Hunda Dandaʼu, Waaqni Israaʼel akkana jedha: karaa keessanii fi hojii keessan qajeelfadhaa; anis akka isin iddoo kana jiraattan nan godha.
4 Do not trust in lying words, saying, "The LORD's temple, The LORD's temple, The LORD's temple, are these."
Isin dubbii sobaa amanattanii, “Kun mana qulqullummaa Waaqayyoo ti; mana qulqullummaa Waaqayyoo ti; mana qulqullummaa Waaqayyoo ti!” hin jedhinaa.
5 For if you thoroughly amend your ways and your doings; if you thoroughly execute justice between a man and his neighbor;
Isin utuu dhugumaan karaa keessanii fi hojii keessan qajeelfattanii murtii qajeelaa waliif kennitanii,
6 if you do not oppress the foreigner, the fatherless, and the widow, and do not shed innocent blood in this place, neither walk after other gods to your own hurt:
utuu isin alagaa, ijoollee abbaa hin qabne yookaan haadha hiyyeessaa cunqursuu baattanii iddoo kanatti dhiiga nama yakka hin qabnee dhangalaasuu baattanii, utuu waaqota isin balleessan duukaa buʼuu baattanii,
7 then will I cause you to dwell in this place, in the land that I gave to your fathers, from of old even forevermore.
silaa ani akka isin iddoo kana, biyya ani bara baraan abbootii keessaniif kenne keessa jiraattan nan godha.
8 Look, you trust in lying words, that can't profit.
Isin garuu dubbii sobaa kan faayidaa hin qabne amanachaa jirtu.
9 Will you steal, murder, and commit adultery, and swear falsely, and burn incense to Baal, and walk after other gods that you have not known,
“‘Isin hattanii nama ajjeeftanii, sagaagaltanii, sobaan kakattanii, Baʼaaliif ixaana aarsitanii, waaqota hin beekin duukaa buutanii,
10 and come and stand before me in this house, which is called by my name, and say, "We are delivered"; that you may do all these abominations?
ergasii dhuftanii mana maqaa kootiin waamamu kana keessatti fuula koo dhaabatanii, utuma amma iyyuu wantoota jibbisiisoo kanneen hunda hojjechaa jirtanuu, “Nu keessaa hin qabnu” jettuu?
11 Is this house, which is called by my name, become a den of robbers in your eyes? Look, I, even I, have seen it, says the LORD.
Manni maqaa kootiin waamame kun holqa saamtotaa isiniif taʼee? Ani garuu waan kana ergeera! jedha Waaqayyo.
12 But go now to my place which was in Shiloh, where I caused my name to dwell at the first, and see what I did to it for the wickedness of my people Israel.
“‘Mee gara Shiiloo iddoo ani jalqabatti iddoo jireenya Maqaa kootiif godhadhe sanaa dhaqaatii waan ani sababii hammina saba koo Israaʼeliif ishee godhe ilaalaa.
13 Now, because you have done all these works, says the LORD, and I spoke to you, rising up early and speaking, but you did not hear; and I called you, but you did not answer:
Waaqayyo akkana jedha: Yeroo isin waan kana hunda gootanitti, ani ammumaa amma isinitti dubbadheera; isin garuu na hin dhaggeeffanne. Ani isinan waame; isin garuu hin owwaanne.
14 therefore I will do to the house which is called by my name, in which you trust, and to the place which I gave to you and to your fathers, as I did to Shiloh.
Kanaafuu ani waanan Shiilootti fide sana amma mana Maqaa kootiin waamamu, mana Qulqullummaa kan isin amanattan, iddoo ani isinii fi abbootii keessaniif kenne kanattis nan fida.
15 I will cast you out of my sight, as I have cast out all your brothers, all the descendants of Ephraim.
Ani akkuman obboloota keessan jechuunis saba Efreem hunda fuula koo duraa ariʼe sana isiniinis nan ariʼa.’
16 Therefore do not pray for this people, neither lift up a cry nor prayer for them, neither make intercession to me; for I will not hear you.
“Kanaafuu ati saba kanaaf hin kadhatin; yookaan waaʼee isaaniitiif hin booʼin yookaan waammata hin dhiʼeessin; ani si hin dhagaʼuutii na hin kadhatin.
17 Do you not see what they do in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem?
Ati waan isaan magaalaawwan Yihuudaa keessattii fi daandiiwwan Yerusaalem irratti hojjetan hin argituu?
18 The children gather wood, and the fathers kindle the fire, and the women knead the dough, to make cakes to the queen of heaven, and to pour out drink offerings to other gods, that they may provoke me to anger.
Ijoolleen qoraan funaanu; abbootiin ibidda qabsiisu; dubartoonni immoo Mootittii Samiitiif keekii tolchuuf bukoo bukeessu. Isaan dheekkamsaaf na kakaasuuf waaqota biraatiif dhibaayyuu dhibaafatu.
19 Do they provoke me to anger?" says the LORD. "Do they not provoke themselves, to the confusion of their own faces?"
Garuu kan isaan dheekkamsaaf kakaasan anaa? jedha Waaqayyo. Isaan ofuma miidhanii qaanaʼan mitii?
20 Therefore thus says the LORD: "Look, my anger and my wrath shall be poured out on this place, on man, and on animal, and on the trees of the field, and on the fruit of the ground; and it shall burn, and shall not be quenched."
“‘Kanaafuu Waaqayyo Gooftaan akkana jedha: Aarii fi dheekkamsi koo iddoo kana irratti, namaa fi horii irratti, mukkeen diidaattii fi waan lafti baaftu irratti ni dhangalaʼa; inni inuma bobaʼa malee hin dhaamu.
21 Thus says the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel: "Add your burnt offerings to your sacrifices, and eat meat.
“‘Waaqayyo Waan Hunda Dandaʼu, Waaqni Israaʼel akkana jedha: Aarsaa keessan kan gubamu qalma keessanitti dabalaatii foon nyaadhaa!
22 For I did not speak to your fathers, nor command them in the day that I brought them out of the land of Egypt, concerning burnt offerings or sacrifices:
Ani yeroon biyya Gibxii abbootii keessan baasetti waaʼee aarsaa gubamuutii fi qalmaa isaanitti hin dubbanne yookaan isaan hin ajajne;
23 but this thing I commanded them, saying, 'Listen to my voice, and I will be your God, and you shall be my people; and walk in all the way that I command you, that it may be well with you.'
ani garuu ajaja kana isaaniif nan kenne: Anaaf ajajamaa; ani Waaqa keessan nan taʼa; isinis saba koo ni taatu. Akka isinii toluuf karaa ani isin ajaju hunda irra deemaa.
24 But they did not listen nor turn their ear, but walked in their own counsels and in the stubbornness of their evil heart, and went backward, and not forward.
Isaan garuu hin dhaggeeffanne yookaan hin qalbeeffanne; qooda kanaa mata jabina fedhii garaa isaanii duukaa baʼan. Isaan dugda duubatti deebiʼan malee gara fuula duraatti hin deemne.
25 Since the day that your fathers came forth out of the land of Egypt to this day, I have sent to you all my servants the prophets, daily rising up early and sending them:
Gaafa abbootiin keessan biyya Gibxii baʼanii jalqabee hamma ammaatti ani guyyuma guyyaan, ammumaa amma tajaajiltoota koo raajota isiniif ergeera.
26 yet they did not listen to me, nor inclined their ear, but made their neck stiff: they did worse than their fathers."
Isaan garuu na hin dhaggeeffanne yookaan hin qalbeeffanne. Isaan mataa jabaatanii abbootii isaanii caalaa waan hamaa hojjetan.’
27 "You shall speak all these words to them; but they will not listen to you: you shall also call to them; but they will not answer you.
“Yeroo ati waan kana hunda isaanitti himtu isaan si hin dhagaʼan; yeroo ati isaan waamtus si jalaa hin owwaatan.
28 You shall tell them, 'This is the nation that has not listened to the voice of the LORD their God, nor received instruction: truth is perished, and is cut off from their mouth.
Kanaafuu akkana isaaniin jedhi; ‘Sabni kun saba Waaqayyo Waaqa isaatiif hin ajajamne, kan adabbii isaa illee hin fudhannee dha. Dhugaan badeera; afaan isaanii keessaas dhabameera.
29 Cut off your hair, and throw it away, and take up a lamentation on the bare heights; for the LORD has rejected and forsaken the generation of his wrath.'"
“‘Rifeensa mataa keetii of irraa cirii gati; iddoo ol kaʼaa qullaatti ol baʼii booʼi; Waaqayyo dhaloota dheekkamsa isaa jala jiru kana tuffatee gateeraatii.
30 "For the people of Judah have done that which is evil in my sight," says the LORD: "they have set their abominations in the house which is called by my name, to defile it.
“‘Sabni Yihuudaa fuula koo duratti waan hamaa hojjeteera; jedha Waaqayyo. Isaan waaqota isaanii tolfamoo jibbisiisoo mana maqaa kootiin waamamu keessa dhaabanii manicha xureessaniiru.
31 They have built the high places of Topheth, which is in the Valley of Ben Hinnom, to burn their sons and their daughters in the fire; which I did not command, nor did it come into my mind.
Isaan ilmaanii fi intallan isaanii achitti ibiddaan gubuuf jedhanii Sulula Ben Hinoom keessatti iddoo sagadaa Toofet ijaaran; kun immoo waan ani isaan hin ajajin yookaan yaada kootti hin dhufinii dha.
32 Therefore look, the days come," says the LORD, "that it shall no more be called Topheth, nor The Valley of Ben Hinnom, but The Valley of Slaughter: for they shall bury in Topheth, until there is no place to bury.
Kanaafuu beekkadhaa! Barri itti namoonni iddoo sanaan, siʼachi Sulula qalmaa jedhanii waaman malee Toofet yookaan Sulula Ben Hinoom hin jenne ni dhufa; isaan hamma iddoon hanqatutti Toofetitti warra duʼan awwaaluutii, jedha Waaqayyo.
33 The dead bodies of this people shall be food for the birds of the sky, and for the animals of the earth; and none shall frighten them away.
Reeffi namoota kanaa simbirroota samiitii fi bineensota lafaatiif nyaata taʼa; namni sodaachisee irraa isaan ariʼu tokko iyyuu hin jiru.
34 Then will I cause to cease from the cities of Judah, and from the streets of Jerusalem, the voice of mirth and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom and the voice of the bride; for the land shall become a waste."
Ani magaalaawwan Yihuudaa keessaa fi daandiiwwan Yerusaalem irra sagalee kolfaatii fi gammachuu, sagalee misirrichaatii fi misirrittii nan balleessa; biyyattiin ni ontiitii.
