Ezekiel 19
1 "Moreover, take up a lamentation for the princes of Israel,
“Waaʼee ilmaan mootota Israaʼeliif faarsii booʼi;
2 and say, 'What was your mother? A lioness: she couched among lions, in the midst of the young lions she nourished her cubs.
akkanas jedhi: “‘Haati kee leencota gidduutti, leenca akkamii turte! Isheen leencota gidduu ciiftee ilmoolee ishee guddifatte.
3 She brought up one of her cubs: he became a young lion, and he learned to catch the prey; he devoured men.
Ilmoolee ishee keessaas tokko guddifatte; innis leenca jabaa taʼe. Inni waa adamsee ciccirachuu barate; namootas nyaate.
4 The nations also heard of him; he was taken in their pit; and they brought him with hooks to the land of Egypt.
Saboonni waaʼee isaa dhagaʼan; inni boolla isaanii keessatti qabame. Isaan hokkoodhaan harkisanii gara biyya Gibxitti isa geessan.
5 "'Now when she saw that she had waited, and her hope was lost, then she took another of her cubs, and 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 He went up and down among the lions; he became a young lion, and he learned to catch the prey; he devoured men.
Inni leencota gidduu biddiiqe; leenca jabaa taʼeeraatii. Inni waa adamsee ciccirachuu barate; namootas nyaate.
7 He devastated their strongholds, and destroyed their cities; and the land was desolate, and its fullness, because of the noise of his roaring.
Inni daʼannoo isaanii diige; magaalaawwan isaaniis onse. Biyyattii fi kanneen ishee keessa jiraatan hundi aaduu isaatiin raafaman.
8 Then the nations set against him on every side from the provinces; and they spread their net over him; he was taken 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 They put him in a cage with hooks, and brought him to the king of Babylon; they brought him into strongholds, that his voice should no more be heard on the mountains of Israel.
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 was like a vine in your vineyard, planted by the waters: it was fruitful and full of branches by reason 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 It had strong rods for the scepters of those who bore rule, and their stature was exalted among the thick boughs, and they were seen in their height with the multitude of their branches.
Dameewwan isaas jajjaboo bokkuu bulchaatiif taʼan turan. Isheen baalawwan gobbatan gidduutti ol dheerina isheetii fi baayʼina dameewwan isheetiin ol dheerattee mulʼatti turte.
12 But it was plucked up in fury, it was cast down to the ground, and the east wind dried up its fruit: its strong rods were broken off and withered; the fire consumed them.
Isheen garuu aariidhaan buqqifamtee lafatti gatamte. Bubbeen baʼa biiftuu ishee gogsee ija ishee irraa harcaase; dameewwan ishee ciccimoonis ni coollagan; ibiddis isaan fixe.
13 Now it is planted in the wilderness, in a dry and thirsty land.
Amma isheen gammoojjii keessa, lafa gogaa dheebote irra dhaabamte.
14 Fire is gone out of the rods of its branches, it has devoured its fruit, so that there is in it no strong rod to be a scepter to rule.' This is a lamentation, and shall be 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.”
