Jeremiah 23
1 Woe to! [the] shepherds [who] are causing to stray and [who are] scattering [the] flock of pasture my [the] utterance of Yahweh.
“Tiksoota hoolota karra koo balleessanii bittinneessiniif wayyoo!” jedha Waaqayyo.
2 Therefore thus he says Yahweh [the] God of Israel on the shepherds who are shepherding people my you you have scattered flock my and you have driven away them and not you have paid attention to them here I [am] about to visit on you [the] wickedness of deeds your [the] utterance of Yahweh.
Kanaafuu Waaqayyo Waaqni Israaʼel tiksoota saba koo tiksaniin akkana jedha: “Waan isin bushaayee koo bittinneessitanii ariitanii fi eegumsa barbaachisu isaaniif hin godhiniif ani kunoo hammina isin hojjettaniif adabbii isinittin fida” jedha Waaqayyo.
3 And I I will gather together [the] remnant of flock my from all the lands where I have banished them there and I will bring back them to pasture their and they will be fruitful and they will increase.
“Ani mataan koo hambaa bushaayee kootii biyyoota ani itti isaan ariʼee ture hunda keessaa walitti qabee karra isaaniitti nan deebisa; isaanis achitti ni horu; ni baayʼatus.
4 And I will raise up over them shepherds and they will shepherd them and not they will be afraid again and not they will be terrified and not they will be missing [the] utterance of Yahweh.
Anis tiksoota isaan tiksan isaaniif nan ramada; isaanis siʼachi hin sodaatan; yookaan hin rifatan, yookaan isaan keessaa tokko iyyuu hin badu” jedha Waaqayyo.
5 Here! days [are] coming [the] utterance of Yahweh and I will raise up for David a branch righteous and he will reign a king and he will act prudently and he will do justice and righteousness in the land.
“Barri ani itti Daawitiif damee qajeelaa tokko, mootii ogummaadhaan bulchuu fi waan sirrii fi qajeelaa taʼe biyya kana keessatti hojjetu tokko kaasu ni dhufa” jedha Waaqayyo.
6 In days his it will be saved Judah and Israel it will dwell to security and this [will be] name his which anyone will call him Yahweh - [is] righteousness our.
Bara isaa keessa Yihuudaan ni fayya; Israaʼelis nagaan jiraata; maqaan inni ittiin waamamus: Waaqayyo Qajeelummaa Keenya jedhama.
7 Therefore here! days [are] coming [the] utterance of Yahweh and not people will say again [by] [the] life of Yahweh who he brought up [the] people of Israel from [the] land of Egypt.
“Kanaafuu barri itti namoonni siʼachi, ‘Dhugaa Waaqayyo jiraataa isa Israaʼeloota Gibxii baasee fide sanaa’ hin jenne tokko ni dhufa” jedha Waaqayyo;
8 That except [by] [the] life of Yahweh who he brought up and who he brought [the] offspring of [the] house of Israel from a land north-ward and from all the lands where I banished them there and they will dwell on own land their.
“Isaan garuu, ‘Dhugaa Waaqayyo jiraataa isa biyya Kaabaatii fi biyyoota itti isaan ariʼee ture hunda keessaa sanyiiwwan Israaʼel baasee fide sanaa’ jedhu. Ergasiis isaan biyya ofii isaanii keessa ni jiraatu.”
9 Of the prophets it is broken heart my in inner being my they have become weak all bones my I have become like a person drunken and like a man [whom] it has passed over him wine because of Yahweh and because of [the] words of holiness his.
Waaʼee raajotaa, onneen koo na keessatti cabeera, lafeen koo hundi ni hollata; sababii Waaqayyootii fi sababii dubbii isaa qulqulluu sanaatiif ani akkuma nama machaaʼee akka nama daadhii wayiniitiin moʼatamee nan taʼe.
10 For adulterers it is full the land for because of a curse it has dried up the land they have become dry [the] pastures of [the] wilderness and it has become course [of life] their evil and strength their [is] not right.
Biyyattiin ejjitootaan guutamteerti, sababii abaarsaatiif biyyattiin ni boossi; kaloon gammoojjii keessaas ni goga. Raajonni karaa hamaa duukaa buʼu; aangoo isaaniittis karaa malee fayyadamu.
11 For both prophet as well as priest they are polluted also in house my I have found wickedness their [the] utterance of Yahweh.
“Raajonnis, lubnis Waaqaaf hin bulan; ani mana koo keessatti iyyuu hammina isaanii argeera” jedha Waaqayyo.
12 Therefore it will become path their for them like slippery places in the darkness they will be pushed down and they will fall on it for I will bring on them calamity [the] year of punishment their [the] utterance of Yahweh.
“Kanaafuu karaan isaanii mucuca taʼa; isaan dukkanatti gad darbatamu; achittis ni kufu. Bara isaan adabaman keessa, ani badiisa isaanitti nan fida” jedha Waaqayyo.
13 And among [the] prophets of Samaria I saw offensiveness they prophesied by Baal and they caused to err people my Israel.
“Raajota Samaariyaa gidduutti, ani waan jibbisiisaa kana argeera: Isaan maqaa Baʼaaliin raajanii saba koo Israaʼelin karaa irraa jalʼisan.
14 And among [the] prophets of Jerusalem I have seen a horrible [thing] they have committed adultery and they have walked in falsehood and they have strengthened [the] hands of evil-doers to not they have turned away anyone from evil his they have become to me all of them like Sodom and inhabitants its like Gomorrah.
Raajota Yerusaalem gidduutti ani waan nama suukaneessu tokko argeera; isaan ni ejju; sobaan jiraatus. Akka namni tokko iyyuu hammina isaa irraa hin deebineef isaan harka jalʼootaa jajjabeessu. Isaan hundi anaaf akkuma Sodoom; sabni Yerusaalem immoo akkuma Gomoraa ti.”
15 Therefore thus he says Yahweh of hosts on the prophets here I [am] about to make eat them wormwood and I will make drink them water of poison for from with [the] prophets of Jerusalem it has gone out wicked behavior to all the land.
Kanaafuu Waaqayyo Waan Hunda Dandaʼu waaʼee raajotaa akkana jedha: “Sababii raajota Yerusaalemiif, waan xuraaʼummaan biyyattii keessa guuteef ani akka isaan nyaata hadhaaʼaa nyaatanii bishaan summaaʼes dhugan nan godha.”
16 Thus he says Yahweh of hosts may not you listen to [the] words of the prophets who are prophesying to you [are] deluding they you [the] vision of own heart their they speak not from [the] mouth of Yahweh.
Waaqayyo Waan Hunda Dandaʼu akkana jedha: “Waan raajonni isinii raajan hin dhaggeeffatinaa; isaan abdii sobaatiin isin guutu. Isaan utuu afaan Waaqayyootii hin taʼin mulʼata yaada ofii isaanii dubbatu; yaada isaanii keessaa fuudhanii mulʼata dubbatu.
17 [they are] saying Continually to [those who] despise me he says Yahweh peace it will belong to you and every [one who] walks in [the] stubbornness of own heart his they have said not it will come on you calamity.
Isaan ittuma fufanii warra na tuffataniin, ‘Waaqayyo akkana jedha: isin nagaa ni qabaattu’ jedhu. Warra mata jabina yaada ofii isaanii duukaa buʼan hundaan immoo, ‘Hamaan isin hin argatu’ jedhu.
18 For who? has he stood in [the] council of Yahweh so he may see and he may hear word his who? has he paid attention to (word his *Q(K)*) and has he listened?
Garuu isaan keessaa namni dubbii isaa arguuf yookaan dhagaʼuuf waldaa Waaqayyoo keessa dhaabate eenyu? Namni dubbii isaatiif gurra kennee dhagaʼe eenyu?
19 There! - [the] storm of Yahweh rage it has gone out and a storm whirling on [the] head of wicked [people] it will whirl about.
Kunoo bubbeen Waaqayyoo, dheekkamsaan ni buʼa; bubbeen hamaanis mataa hamootaa irratti gad bubbisa.
20 Not it will turn back [the] anger of Yahweh until has brought about he and until has carried out he [the] purposes of heart his at [the] end of the days you will understand it understanding.
Dheekkamsi Waaqayyoo hamma inni kaayyoo yaada garaa isaa guutumaan guutuutti raawwatutti duubatti hin deebiʼu. Isin bara dhumaa keessa waan kana akka gaariitti ni hubattu.
21 Not I sent the prophets and they they ran not I spoke to them and they they prophesied.
Ani raajota kanneen hin ergine; isaan garuu ergaa ofii isaanii qabatanii fiiganiiru; ani isaanitti hin dubbanne; isaan garuu raajii dubbataniiru.
22 And if they had stood in council my so they may cause to hear words my people my and they will turn back them from way their wicked and from [the] wickedness of deeds their.
Isaan utuu waldaa koo keessa dhaabatanii jiraatanii silaa dubbii koo saba kootti labsanii, karaa isaanii jalʼaa sanaa fi hojii isaanii hamaa sana irraa isaan deebisu ture.
23 ¿ A God from near [am] I [the] utterance of Yahweh and not a God from a distance.
“Ani Waaqa fagootis malee Waaqa dhiʼoo qofaa?” jedha Waaqayyo.
24 Or? will he hide himself anyone in hiding places and I not I will see him [the] utterance of Yahweh ¿ not the heavens and the earth [am] I filling [the] utterance of Yahweh.
“Namni tokko iyyuu akka ani isa arguu hin dandeenyeef iddoo dhoksaa taʼe dhokachuu ni dandaʼa?” jedha Waaqayyo. “Ani samii fi lafa illee nan guuta mitii?” jedha Waaqayyo.
25 I have heard [that] which they have said the prophets who prophesy in name my falsehood saying I have dreamed I have dreamed.
“Ani waan raajonni maqaa kootiin soba raajan sun jedhan dhagaʼeera; isaanis, ‘Ani abjuu abjoodheera! Ani abjuu abjoodheera!’ jedhu.
26 Until when? ¿ [is] there in [the] heart of the prophets [who] prophesy falsehood and [the] prophets of [the] deceitfulness of own heart their.
Wanni akkasii kun hamma yoomiitti garaa raajota yaaduma ofii isaanii keessaa fuudhanii soba dubbatan kanneenii keessa jiraata?
27 Who plan to make forget people my name my by dreams their which they recount each to neighbor his just as they forgot ancestors their name my for Baal.
Raajonni kunneen abjuu walitti odeessaniin akka sabni koos akkuma abbootiin isaanii Baʼaalin waaqeffachuudhaan maqaa koo irraanfatanii turan sana maqaa koo irraanfachiisuu yaadu.
28 The prophet whom [is] with him a dream let him recount [the] dream and whom word my [is] with him let him speak word my faithfulness what? [belongs] to the straw with the grain [the] utterance of Yahweh.
Raajiin abjuu qabu abjuu isaa haa dubbatu; namni dubbii koo qabu immoo amanamummaadhaan haa dubbatu. Cidiin midhaan irraa maal qaba?” jedha Waaqayyo.
29 ¿ Not thus [is] word my like fire [the] utterance of Yahweh and like a hammer [which] it shatters rock.
“Dubbiin koo akkuma ibiddaatii fi akkuma burruusa kattaa caccabsu tokkoo mitii?” jedha Waaqayyo.
30 Therefore here I [am] on the prophets [the] utterance of Yahweh [who] steal words my each from with neighbor his.
“Kanaafuu ani kunoo raajota dubbii koo wal irraa hatan sanaan nan morma” jedha Waaqayyo.
31 Here I [am] on the prophets [the] utterance of Yahweh who take tongue their and they have uttered an utterance.
“Kunoo ani raajota afaanuma isaaniitiin, ‘Waaqayyo akkana jedha’ jedhaniin nan morma” jedha Waaqayyo.
32 Here I [am] on [those who] prophesy dreams of falsehood [the] utterance of Yahweh and they have recounted them and they caused to err people my by falsehoods their and by recklessness their and I not I sent them and not I appointed them and certainly not they benefit the people this [the] utterance of Yahweh.
“Ani dhugumaan warra abjuu sobaa raajaniin nan morma” jedha Waaqayyo, “Isaan soba itti odeessanii saba koo karaa irraa balleessu; ani garuu isaan hin ergine yookaan isaan hin muudne. Isaan gonkumaa saba kana hin fayyadan” jedha Waaqayyo.
33 And if it will ask you the people this or the prophet or a priest saying what? [is] [the] burden of Yahweh and you will say to them what? burden and I will abandon you [the] utterance of Yahweh.
“Yoo sabni kun yookaan raajiin tokko yookaan lubni tokko, ‘Baʼaan Waaqayyoo maal?’ jedhee si gaafatutti, ati immoo, ‘Baʼaa maalii? Ani sin gata jedha Waaqayyo’ jedhiin.
34 And the prophet and the priest and the people who he will say [the] burden of Yahweh and I will visit [judgment] on the person that and on house his.
Yoo raajiin tokko yookaan lubni tokko yookaan namni kam iyyuu, ‘Baʼaan Waaqayyoo kanaa dha,’ jedhe, ani nama sanaa fi warra mana isaa jiraatan nan adaba.
35 Thus you will say each to neighbor his and each to brother his what? did he answer Yahweh and what? did he say Yahweh.
Tokkoon tokkoon namaa michuu isaatiin yookaan fira isaatiin, ‘Deebiin Waaqayyo kenne maali?’ Yookaan, ‘Waaqayyo maal dubbata?’ jechuu qaba.
36 And [the] burden of Yahweh not you will remember again for the burden it is for a person own word his and you change [the] words of God living Yahweh of hosts God our.
Egaa isin lammata, ‘Baʼaa Waaqayyoo,’ jettanii dubbachuu hin qabdan; dubbiin nama hundaa baʼaa ofii isaa taʼee isin immoo dubbii Waaqa keenyaa, Waaqa jiraataa, Waaqayyo Waan Hunda Dandaʼu sanaa jalʼistuutii.
37 Thus you will say to the prophet what? did he answer you Yahweh and what? did he say Yahweh.
Ati ittuma fuftee raajii tokkoon, ‘Deebiin Waaqayyo siif kenne maali?’ Yookaan ‘Waaqayyo maal dubbate?’ jetta.
38 And if [the] burden of Yahweh you will say therefore thus he says Yahweh because have spoken you the word this [the] burden of Yahweh and I sent to you saying not you must say [the] burden of Yahweh.
Isin, ‘Baʼaan Waaqayyo kanaa dha’ yoo jettan iyyuu, Waaqayyo akkana jedha; ani ‘Baʼaan Waaqayyoo kanaa dha’ jechuu hin qabdan isiniin jedhu iyyuu isin jecha, ‘Baʼaan Waaqayyoo kanaa dha’ jedhutti fayyadamtu.
39 Therefore here [am] I and I will surely you lift up and I will abandon you and the city which I gave to you and to ancestors your from on face my.
Kanaafuu ani dhugumaan isin irraanfadhee magaalaa isinii fi abbootii keessaniif kenne wajjin fuula koo duraa isin nan gata.
40 And I will put on you a reproach of perpetuity and shame of perpetuity which not it will be forgotten.
Salphina bara baraa jechuunis qaanii bara baraa kan hin irraanfatamnes isinitti nan fida.”
