Jeremiah 17
1 The sin of Judah, is written With a stylus of iron, With the point of a diamond: It is engraved Upon the tablet of their heart, And upon the horns of your altars;
“Cubbuun Yihuudaa meeshaa sibiilaatiin qirixaameera; qara dhagaatiinis gabatee garaa isaanii irrattii fi gaanfa iddoo aarsaa isaanii irratti barreeffameera.
2 So long as their sons remember their altars, and their Sacred Stems, By the green tree, —Upon the high hills,
Ijoolleen isaanii iyyuu iddoowwan aarsaa isaaniitii fi siidaa Aasheeraa kanneen mukkeen lalisaa cinaatii fi gaarran ol dheeroo irraa sana yaadatan.
3 O my mountain in the field Thy substance all thy treasures, for a prey, will I give: Thy high places for sin, within all thy bounds.
Ani sababii cubbuu biyya kee guute sanaatiif tulluu koo kan biyya keessaa, qabeenya keetii fi badhaadhummaa kee hunda iddoo ol kaʼaa kee wajjin dabarsee boojuuf nan kenna.
4 So shalt thou even of thyself, suffer to rest the inheritance which I gave thee, Seeing that I will cause thee to serve thine enemies, in the land which thou knowest not; For, a fire, have ye kindled in mine anger, Unto times age-abiding, shall it burn.
Ati dogoggora mataa keetiitiin dhaala ani siif kenne ni dhabda. Ani biyya ati hin beekne keessatti diinota keetiif sin garboomsa; ati dheekkamsa koo qabsiifteertaatii; innis bara baraan ni bobaʼa.”
5 Thus, saith Yahweh Accursed is the man—Who trusteth in a son of earth, And hath made flesh his arm, —And whose heart from Yahweh, turneth aside:
Waaqayyo akkana jedha: “Namni nama amanatu, kan jabina foonii irree isaa godhatu, kan garaan isaa Waaqayyo irraa garagalu abaaramaa dha.
6 Therefore shall he become as a shrub in the waste plain, Neither shall he perceive when good cometh, But shall inhabit Parched places in a wilderness, A land of salt that cannot be dwelt in.
Inni akka daggala gammoojjii keessaa taʼa; yeroo wanni gaariin dhufutti hin argu. Inni gammoojjii keessaa iddoo gogaa biyya soogiddaa kan namni tokko iyyuu hin jiraanne keessa jiraata.
7 Blessed is the man Who trusteth in Yahweh, To whom Yahweh is his ground of confidence;
“Namni Waaqayyoon amanatu, kan abdiin isaas isuma taʼe garuu eebbifamaa dha.
8 For he shall become like a tree planted by waters, And, by a stream, shall he send out his roots, Neither shall he perceive when heat cometh, But, his leaf shall continue green: Even in a year of dearth, shall he not be anxious, Neither shall he cease from bearing fruit.
Inni akkuma muka qarqara bishaanii dhaabame, kan hidda isaa ededa lagaa irra yaafatuu taʼa. Yommuu hoʼi dhufu hin sodaatu; baalli isaa yeroo hunda lalisaa dha. Mukni sun bara hongee illee hin yaaddaʼu; ija naqachuus hin dhiisu.”
9 Deceitful is the heart above all things And, dangerously wayward, —Who can know it?
Garaan namaa waan hunda caalaa haxxee dha; garmalees hamaa dha. Eenyutu isa hubachuu dandaʼa?
10 I—Yahweh, Searching the heart, Testing the affections; And giving to every man According to his way, According to the fruit of his doings.
“Ani Waaqayyo nama hundaaf akkuma amala isaatti, akkuma waan hojii isaatiif maluutti gatii isaaf kennuuf garaa isaa nan sakattaʼa; qalbii isaas nan qora.”
11 As a partridge gathereth eggs she did not lay, [So] is he that maketh riches but not with justice, —In the midst of his days, shall he leave them, And in his latter end, prove to have been base.
Namni karaa hin malleen badhaadhummaa walitti qabatu akkuma gogorrii hanqaaquu hin hanqaaqin hammattu ti. Walakkaa umurii isaatti badhaadhummaan sun isa dhiisee bada; dhuma irrattis gowwaa taʼuun isaa ni mirkaneeffama.
12 A throne of glory, exalted from the beginning, hath been the place of our sanctuary.
Teessoon ulfina qabeessi durumaa jalqabee ol ol jedhu sun, iddoo qulqullummaa keenyaa ti.
13 Thou hope of Israel Yahweh, All who forsake thee, shall turn pale, —Yea, all who depart from me, in the ground, shall be written, For they have forsaken a fountain of living water, even Yahweh.
Yaa Waaqayyo, abdii Israaʼel, warri si dhiisan hundi ni qaaneffamu. Warri sirraa garagalan biyyoo keessatti galmeeffamaniiru; isaan Waaqayyoon burqaa bishaan jireenyaa dhiisaniiruutii.
14 Heal thou me O Yahweh, that I may be healed, Save me that I may be saved, —For, my praise, thou art!
Yaa Waaqayyo na fayyisi; anis nan fayyaa; na oolchi, anis nan oolfama; kan ani jajadhu sumaatii.
15 Lo! they, are saying unto me, —Where is the word of Yahweh? Pray thee let it come to pass!
Isaan ittuma fufanii, “Dubbiin Waaqayyoo eessa jira? Mee amma haa raawwatamu!” naan jedhu.
16 But as for me, I have neither forced myself away from tending the flock after thee, Nor yet for the woeful day, have I longed—thou, knowest, —That which came out of my lips, before thy face, was uttered.
Ani tiksee taʼee si tajaajiluu irraa duubatti hin deebine; ati akka ani guyyaa badiisaa hin hawwine ni beekta. Wanni afaan kootii baʼu fuuluma kee dura jira.
17 Do not thou become to me a terror, —My refuge, art thou, in the day of calamity.
Ati na hin rifachiisin; guyyaa badiisaatti ati daʼoo koo ti.
18 Let my persecutors, turn pale, but let not me, turn pale, Let, them, be terrified, but let not, me, be terrified, —Bring thou upon them a day of calamity, And with a double fracture, destroy them.
Warri na adamsan haa qaaneffaman; ana garuu qaanii irraa na oolchi; isaan haa rifatan; ana garuu rifaatii irraa na eegi. Guyyaa badiisaa isaanitti fidi; badiisa dachaatiin isaan balleessi.
19 Thus, said Yahweh unto me—Go and stand in the gate of the sons of the people, through which the kings of Judah enter in, and through which they come out, —also in all the gates of Jerusalem.
Waaqayyo akkana naan jedhe: “Dhaqiitii karra uummataa karaa mootonni Yihuudaa ittiin seenanii baʼan dura dhaabadhu; akkasumas karrawwan Yerusaalem kaan hunda dura dhaabadhu.
20 Then shalt thou say unto them—Hear ye the word of Yahweh Ye kings of Judah and all Judah, And all ye inhabitants of Jerusalem, —who enter in through these gates:
Akkanas isaaniin jedhi; ‘Yaa mootota Yihuudaa, sabni Yihuudaa hundii fi namoonni Yerusaalem keessa jiraattan kanneen karra kanaan ol galtan hundi dubbii Waaqayyoo dhagaʼaa.
21 Thus, saith Yahweh, Take heed unto your souls, —And do not bear any burden on the sabbath day, Nor bring it in through the gates of Jerusalem, —
Waaqayyo akkana jedha: Akka guyyaa Sanbataatiin baʼaa hin baanne yookaan karrawwan Yerusaalemiin ol hin galchine of eeggadhaa.
22 Neither shall ye take forth any burden out of your houses on the sabbath day, Nor any manner of work, shall ye do, —But ye shall hallow the sabbath day, As I commanded your fathers.
Akkuma ani abbootii keessan ajajetti guyyaa Sanbataa kabajaa malee guyyaa Sanbataatiin mana keessanii baʼaa gad hin baasinaa yookaan hojii kam iyyuu hin hojjetinaa.
23 Howbeit they hearkened not, neither inclined their ear, —but stiffened their neck, that they might not hearken, neither receive correction.
Taʼus isaan hin dhaggeeffanne yookaan hin qalbeeffanne; garuu akka hin dhageenyee fi akka qajeelfama hin fudhanneef mataa jabaatan.
24 And it shall come to pass, —If ye will, indeed hearken, unto me Declareth Yahweh, To bring in no burden through the gates of this city, on the sabbath day, —But to hallow the sabbath day, by not doing thereon any manner of work,
Waaqayyo akkana jedha; yoo isin na dhageessanii guyyaa Sanbataatiin baʼaa tokko illee karrawwan magaalaa kanaatiin ol galchuu dhiiftanii qooda kanaa gaafas hojii kam iyyuu hojjechuu dhiisuudhaan guyyaa Sanbataa addaan baaftanii eegdan,
25 Then shall enter in through the gates of this city, Kings and princes Sitting on the throne of David, Riding in chariots and on horses They, and their princes, The men of Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem, And this city shall remain unto times age-abiding.
mootonni teessoo Daawit irra taaʼan qondaaltota isaanii wajjin karrawwan magaalaa kanaatiin ol seenu. Isaanis qondaaltota isaanii wajjin gaariiwwanii fi fardeen yaabbatanii namoota Yihuudaatii fi warra Yerusaalem keessa jiraatan wajjin ni dhufu; magaalaan kunis magaalaa namni bara baraan keessa jiraatu ni taʼa.
26 And they shall come in—Out of the cities of Judah and Out of the places round about Jerusalem, and Out of the land of Benjamin, and Out of the lowlands, and out of the hill country, and Out of the South, Bringing in ascending-offering, and peace-offering, and meal-offering, and frankincense, —Even they who bring in a thank-offering into the house of Yahweh,
Namoonnis magaalaawwan Yihuudaatii fi gandoota naannoo Yerusaalemiitii, biyya Beniyaamiitii fi biyya gaara keessaatii, biyya gaaraatii fi Negeebii aarsaa gubamuu fi qalma, aarsaa midhaanii, ixaanaa fi aarsaa galataa fidanii gara mana Waaqayyoo ni dhufu.
27 But, if ye will not hearken unto me—To hallow the sabbath day, And to bear no burden and bring in through the gates of Jerusalem, on the sabbath day, Then will I kindle a fire within her gates, And it shall devour the palaces of Jerusalem, And shall not be quenched.
Yoo isin guyyaa Sanbataa addaan baaftanii eeguuf jettanii guyyaa Sanbataatiin baʼaa tokko iyyuu baattanii karrawwan Yerusaalemiin ol seenuu dhiisuudhaan anaaf ajajamuu baattan garuu ani ibidda hin dhaamne tokko karrawwan Yerusaalemitti nan qabsiisa; ibiddi sunis daʼannoowwan Yerusaalem gubee barbadeessa.’”
