Revelation 18
1 After this, [in the vision] I saw another angel, who had great authority, coming down from heaven. The earth became bright [because] he was shining so intensely/brightly.
Hessafe guye godateth izas diza hara kiitanchay salope duge wodhdhishin beyadis. Iza boncho po7ope dendidayssan biittayka po7ides.
2 He shouted with a very loud voice, “[God is about to] completely destroy [DOU] all the very [evil] cities (OR, the very evil [city]) [that] Babylon [represents]. As a result, all [kinds of] evil spirits [DOU] will live there, and all [kinds of] foul and detestable [DOU] birds will live there.
Izi qass dhoqa qaalan hizgi woossides “Gita Babilooneya kundadus! Kundadus! Kundadus! daydantha duussa so gidadus! tuna ayanatas aqoso gidadus! haariza iitta kapotas shempo so gidadus.
3 [God will destroy those cities] because [their rulers have persuaded] the people of [MTY] all nations to act very immorally [and idolatrously with the people of] [MET] [those cities, just like] a prostitute persuades men to drink [strong] wine and then commit fornication with her. The rulers of the earth have also acted immorally [and idolatrously] with the people of [MTY] those cities. The merchants of the earth have become rich [because the people of those cities] strongly desired [and bought from the merchants] many (luxuries/expensive things).”
Dere asa ubbaa mathoziza ba laymmatetha woyne cajeza ushshadus. Biitta bolla diza kawoti izira Laymmatida. Biitta bolla diza zal7anchati izis diza ishalo duussafe dendidayssan daro duretida”
4 I heard [Jesus] speak from heaven. He said, “My people, flee from [those cities], in order that you do not sin as the people [of those cities do. If you sin as they do], I will punish you as I will punish them.
Qasseka hara qaalay salope hizigi shin siyadis “Ta dereto inte izira izi nagaran zupettontta malane izo gakkiza bochan inte izira gishshietti ekkontta mala izipe shaaketi kezite.
5 [It is as though] their sins have been piled {have piled} up to heaven, and God remembers them [DOU], [so now he will punish them] [MTY].”
Izi nagaray doorettidi pude salo gakkides. Xoossika izi mooroza akekides.
6 [To the angels whom God assigned to punish those cities, Jesus said], “Pay back/Punish the people of those cities to the same extent that they harmed [other people]. Cause them to suffer twice as much [as they caused other people to suffer] [DOU, MET].
Iza immidari gina izis kushe zaarite; iza ootho gishshishi izis nam7u kushe ciggite; izis nam7u kushe iziyssafe aathi walakite;
7 To the same extent that they have boasted about themselves and done the things that they wanted to do, to that extent torment them and cause them to grieve. [Do that because] in their minds they think, ‘We rule as queens! We are not widows, and we will never mourn [as widows do]’!
Iza bees, ba bonchosine bees giigana mala immoyssa gina waayene muzoteth izis immite; iza ba wozinara (Tani kawo machi mala uttadis attin ami7i mala gidike. Tana muuzoteth muleka gakena” ga ceeqistataysu.
8 So in one day terrible calamities/troubles will come upon them. [The people in those cities] will die, others will mourn for them, people will be hungry [because there will be no food], and [their cities] will be burned up. The Lord God is able to punish those cities [like that], because he is very powerful.”
Hessa gishshi izi bolla bochay wurka issi gallas gakana. Hayqoy, muuzotethine gafay izo gakana; Iza taman xuugistana; Izi bolla pirdiza Goday Xoossi izi minokko.
9 “The kings of the earth who have acted immorally [with people of those cities] and have lived with the people of those cities, doing just what they wanted to do, will weep and mourn [DOU] for them when they see the smoke of the fire that is burning those cities.
Izira laymmatishe ishalo duusu deyida ha biitta kawoti iza xuugetishin cuwatiza cuwa beyid izi gishshi waassid yeekana.
10 They will stand far away [from those cities], because they will be afraid [that they will suffer just like the people of those cities] are suffering. They will say, ‘Terrible things will happen to the awesome and mighty cities [represented by] Babylon! [God] will punish them suddenly and swiftly [MTY]!’
Izi waayezas babida gishshi hahon eqqidi “Hane gita katamaye! hane mino katamaye Babiloone! ne pirday mexi issi saate giddon yida gishshi nees wa! Wa!” gaana.
11 The merchants of the earth will weep and will mourn [DOU] [for those cities], because no one will ever again buy the things that they have [to sell to the people in those cities].
Hayssafe guye istta markaben caanetidaz shammiza uray bayinda gishshi biitta bolla dizazal7anchati izis yeekanane kayotana.
12 [They sell ornaments made] of gold, silver, precious stones, and pearls. They sell [expensive cloth made of] fine linen and silk, [expensive cloth that is dyed] purple and crimson. They sell all kinds of [rare] wood, all kinds of items [made of] ivory, costly wood, bronze, iron, and marble. They sell cinnamon, spice, perfume, frankincense, wine, olive oil, fine flour, and grain. They sell cattle, sheep, horses, and chariots. They even sell human beings [SYN, DOU] to become slaves.
Istta markaben caanettiday worqa, bira, al7o shuchu inqqu, lee7e mayo, galal7o mala mayo, haare geetettiza mayo, zo7o mayone lo7o sawo sawiza wurso miith, dangarsa zaale, al7o miithafe, xarqimalape biratapene wiliwojofe oothetida miishi wurka
Qerefa, sawo, sawiza miith, karbe, exane, woyne caje, woyra zayte, dhiile, gistte, miizi, dorsata, parata, para gaareta, aylistane hara asatakko.
14 [The merchants will say], ‘The good things you people longed to have are gone! All your luxurious and splendid [DOU] [possessions have vanished!]! They will be gone forever/You will never have them again [LIT]!’
Zal7anchati “Hane neni amottida lo7o miishati wurka neepe haaki bi gidida. Ne haaroyka ne geexeyka wurka dhayides. Hayssape guye neni heytantta muleka zaara demmaka” gaana
15 The merchants [who sold] these things and who had become rich by [supplying them] for those [cities] will stand far away, because they will be afraid [that they will suffer just like] the people [of those cities] are suffering. They will weep and mourn [DOU],
Heytantta wurs shami shamidi duretida. Zal7anchati izi bolla gakkida waayezas babidi hahon eqqana, yeekishene muuzetishe
16 and they will say, ‘Terrible things [DOU] have happened to the awesome/great [MET] cities! [They were like queens] who dressed themselves in [clothes made of] [MTY] fine linen [cloth] and expensive cloth dyed purple and crimson, and who were adorned with gold, precious stones, and pearls.
Kase lee7e mayone galal7o mayo qasseka zo7o mayo mayzaris, worqanine boncho shuchan, inqunka phollida gita katamayss wo! wo!
17 But suddenly and swiftly [MTY] [God] has destroyed these expensive things.’ Every ship captain, all people who travel by ship, all (sailors/those who work on ships), and all others who earn their living [by traveling on] the ocean will stand far away [from those cities].
Hessa mala haaroy issi saate garisan dhayides” gaana. Markabe azazizayti wuri markaben bizayti wuri markaben giddon oothizayti wurikka abba giddon zal7anchati wurka haahon eqqana.
18 When they see the smoke of the fire that is burning those cities, they will shout, ‘No [other] cities have ever been so awesome!’ [RHQ]
Iza xuugetishin cuwaza cuwa beyid “Hanno ha gita katamayo milatiza katamay haray awan dandee? gishe waassida.
19 They will throw dust on their heads [to show that they are sad], and they will shout, weep, and mourn [DOU]. They will say, ‘Terrible things have happened to the awesome/great cities, the cities that made all people who own ships [that sail] on the ocean become rich by [carrying] their costly (things for them to sell/merchandise)! [God] has suddenly and swiftly destroyed [MTY] those cities!’”
Be hu7en gudula qolidi yekkishene muuzotishe hizgi waassida “Abba bolla markabey dizayti wurka izi miishen duretidayti, hinna gita katamaya issi saate garsan mulera dhayida gishshi izis wo! wo!
20 Then someone spoke from heaven saying, “All you who live in heaven, rejoice over what has happened to [the cities represented by] Babylon! You who are God’s people, including you apostles, you (prophets/who speak messages that come directly from God), rejoice, because God has justly punished the people of those cities because they acted in an evil way toward you!”
Salozo izi geedon ne ufa7ista; Xoossi inte gishshi izi bolla pirdida gishshi inte geeshati, hawaretine nabetika ufa7ettite.
21 Then a mighty angel picked up a boulder the size of a large stone for grinding grain, and threw it into the ocean. Then he said, “O you people in [APO] the awesome/great cities [represented by] Babylon, your cities will be destroyed so that they will disappear just like that stone disappeared in the ocean! Your cities will be gone forever [LIT]!
Hessafe guye issi mino kiitanchay wolqama woxa shuchu milatiza issi shuchu denthidi hizgishe duge abba giddo yeggides “Gita katamaya Baabilona hessathoka wolqara sugettada kundana. Hayssafe guye muleka beettuku.
22 In your cities there will never again be [anyone] playing harps, singing, playing flutes, and blowing trumpets. There will no longer be any (skilled workers/craftsmen) making things. There will never again be people grinding [grain at] [MTY] the mills.
Diith miza bagana geetettizayssa shoccizaytine yethi yexxizayta yetha susul7o susul7iza asayne dinke punnizayta giirethi nam7antho nenan siyettena. Ay aynateka kushe hiilateth oothiza era asi hayssafe guye nenan bettena. Woxa giirethi hayssafe guye nenan siyettena.
23 No lamplight will ever again shine. There will never again be the [happy] voices of a bridegroom and his bride. [God will destroy your cities] because your merchants were the most [deceitful] men in the world. You persuaded them to deceive [people of] [MTY] all nations.
Tama po7oy hayssafe guye nenan po7ana. Addane macca mishira qaalay hayssape guye nenan siyettana. Ne zal7anchati kase alamen erettidaytakko. Neni qass asa ubbaa muurunon balethadasa.
24 You are also [responsible for killing] [MTY] [the] prophets and [others] of God’s people. Indeed, you are the ones who are guilty for the deaths of all those who have been {whom [others] have} killed on the earth!”
“Izi giddon nabeta suuthi, geeshata suuthine biitta bolla asa kushen hayqidayta wursota suuthi beettides”
