Ezekiel 35
1 Yahweh gave me another message. He said,
Ergasii dubbiin Waaqayyoo akkana jedhee gara koo dhufe:
2 “You human, turn toward Edom and prophesy what will happen to its people. Say that this is what Yahweh says to them:
“Yaa ilma namaa, fuula kee gara Tulluu Seeʼiiritti deebifadhu; isaan mormuudhaanis raajii dubbadhu;
3 ‘You who live near Seir Mountain [in Edom], I am opposed to you, and I will use my power [MTY] to strike you and cause your country to become a wasteland.
akkanas jedhiin: ‘Waaqayyo Gooftaan akkana jedha: Yaa Tulluu Seeʼiir ani sitti kaʼeera; ani harka koo sitti hiixadhee onaa fi gatamaa sin godha.
4 I will cause your country to be ruined and desolate. When that happens, people will know that I, Yahweh, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].
Ani magaalaawwan kee nan diiga; atis ni onta. Ergasii akka ani Waaqayyo taʼe ni beekta.
5 You have always been enemies of the Israeli people. You [rejoiced] when they experienced a great disaster: [their enemies attacked them with] swords, when I punished them [for the sins that they had committed].
“‘Ati sababii haaloo diinummaa durii garaatti qabatteef bara rakkina isaanii keessa jechuunis yeroo adabbiin isaanii dhuma irra gaʼetti Israaʼeloota dabarsitee goraadeetti kennite;
6 Therefore, I, Yahweh the Lord, declare that as surely as I am alive, I will allow [your enemies] to slaughter [MTY] you and continue to slaughter you. You were happy when [LIT] others were slaughtered;
kanaafuu ani jiraataadhaatii, jedha Waaqayyo Gooftaan; ani dhiiga dhangalaasuutti dabarsee sin kenna; ati dhiiga dhangalaasuu jalaa hin baatu. Ati waan dhiiga dhangalaasuu hin jibbineef dhiiga dhangalaasuu jalaa hin baatu.
7 so I will cause Seir Mountain to be abandoned/deserted, and I will get rid of anyone who enters it or leaves it.
Ani Tulluu Seeʼiir onsee duwwaa nan hambisa; warra dhaquu fi deebiʼu achi irraa nan kuta.
8 I will cause your mountains to be filled with [the corpses of] those who have been killed. The corpses of those who have been killed by [your enemies’] swords will lie on your hills and in your valleys and in all your ravines.
Ani tulluuwwan kee reeffaan nan guuta; warri goraadeedhaan ajjeefamanis gaarran kee irra, sululawwan kee keessaa fi lageen kee hunda keessa ni ciciisu.
9 I will cause your land to be deserted forever. No one will live in your towns again. When that happens, you will know that I, Yahweh, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].
Ani bara baraan sin onsa; magaalaawwan kees lafa jireenyaa hin taʼan. Ergasii akka ani Waaqayyo taʼe ni beektu.
10 You people said, “Israel and Judah will become ours. We will take over their territory!” You said that even though I, Yahweh, was still there [and protecting them].
“‘Sababii ati, “Waaqayyo achi jiraatu iyyuu, saboonni lamaan kunneenii fi biyyoonni lamaan kunneen kan koo ni taʼu; nus isaan dhuunfanna” jetteef,
11 Therefore, I, Yahweh the Lord, declare that as surely as I am alive, I will punish [MTY] you for being angry with my people, envying them, and hating them.
ani jiraataadhaatii, jedha Waaqayyo Gooftaan; kanaafuu ani akkuma ati aarii fi hinaaffaa jibba isaaniif qabduun argisiifte sanaatti gatii kee siif nan kenna; anis yeroon sitti murteessutti isaan gidduutti of nan beeksisa.
12 Then you will know that I, Yahweh, have heard all the disgusting things that you have said about the mountains in Israel. You said that they have been ruined/devastated, and that they have been given to you to occupy [MET].
Ergasiis akka ani Waaqayyo wantoota ati tulluuwwan Israaʼelitti, “Isaan onanii duwwaa hafaniiru; akka nu nyaannuufis nuu kennamaniiru” jettee tuffiin dubbatte hunda dhagaʼee jiru ni beekta.
13 When you insulted me, I heard all that you said about me.
Ati afaan keetiin natti of jajjee oduu natti baayʼifteerta; anis waan kana dhagaʼeera.
14 So this is what I, Yahweh the Lord, say: You people who live on Seir Mountain and in all the other places in Edom, when I cause your land to become desolate, everyone in the entire world will rejoice.
Waaqayyo Gooftaan akkana jedha: Yommuu guutummaan lafaa gammadutti ani sin onsa.
15 You were happy when the land [MTY] of the Israeli people became desolate, so I will cause your land to become desolate. When that happens, people will know that I, Yahweh, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].’”
Sababii ati yeroo dhaalli mana Israaʼel onetti gammaddeef ani akkana sin godha. Yaa Tulluu Seeʼiir ati ni onta; atii fi guutummaan Edoom ni ontu. Ergasii isaan akka ani Waaqayyo taʼe ni beeku.’”
