< Habakkuk 2 >
1 I will stand upon my watch, and seat myself upon the tower, and will watch to see what he will say to me, and what I shall answer when I am reproved.
Ani iddoo koo dhaabadhee dallaa eegumsaa irra nan tura; mee waan inni naan jedhu arguuf deebii ani guungummii kanaaf kennuu malu beekuuf nan ilaala.
2 And the LORD answered me, and said, Write the vision, and make [it] plain upon tables, that he may run that readeth it.
Ergasii Waaqayyo akkana jedhee deebii kenne: “Akka namni dubbisu tokko qabatee fiiguuf, mulʼata sana ifa godhii gabatee irratti barreessi.
3 For the vision [is] yet for an appointed time, but at the end it shall speak, and not lie: though it may tarry, wait for it; because it will surely come, it will not tarry.
Mulʼanni kun yeroo murtaaʼe tokko eeggataatii; inni waaʼee dhuma isaa dubbata malee hin sobu. Yoo tures isa eegi; inni dhugumaan ni dhufa; hin turus.
4 Behold, his soul [which] is lifted up, is not upright in him: but the just shall live by his faith.
“Kunoo inni of bokokseera; hawwiin isaas sirrii miti; namni qajeelaan garuu amantii isaatiin jiraata;
5 Yes also, because he transgresseth by wine, [he is] a proud man, neither keepeth at home, who enlargeth his desire, as hell, and [is] as death, and cannot be satisfied, but gathereth to him all nations, and collecteth to him all people: (Sheol )
dhugumaan inni daadhii wayiniitiin ni gowwoomfama; of tuula; boqonnaas hin qabu. Inni akkuma siiʼool sassata; akka duʼaas kan hin quufnee dha. Inni saboota hunda walitti qabata; uummata hundas boojiʼee fudhata. (Sheol )
6 Shall not all these take up a parable against him, and a taunting proverb against him, and say, Woe to him that increaseth [that which is] not his! how long? and to him that ladeth himself with thick clay!
“Isaan hundi isa tuffatanii itti kolfaa, “‘Nama miʼa hatame tuullatee saamichaan of sooromsuuf wayyoo! Wanni kun hamma yoomiitti itti fufa’ jedhanii itti hin qoosanii?
7 Shall they not rise suddenly that shall bite thee, and awake that shall disturb thee, and thou shalt be for booties to them?
Warri liqii sirraa qaban akkuma tasaa sitti hin kaʼanii? Isaan kaʼanii si hin hollachiisanii? Ergasii ati harka isaanii jala galta.
8 Because thou hast laid waste many nations, all the remnant of the people shall lay thee waste; because of men's blood, and [for] the violence of the land, of the city, and of all that dwell therein.
Sababii ati saba hedduu saamteef namoonni hafan si saamu. Ati dhiiga namaa dhangalaafteertaatii; ati biyyoota, magaalaawwanii fi namoota isaan keessa jiraatan hunda balleessiteerta.
9 Woe to him that coveteth an evil covetousness to his house, that he may set his nest on high, that he may be delivered from the power of evil!
“Nama buʼaa hin malleen mana ijaarratu kan badiisa jalaa baʼuuf jedhee lafa ol kaʼaa irratti iddoo jireenyaa tolfatuuf wayyoo!
10 Thou hast consulted shame to thy house by cutting off many people, and hast sinned [against] thy soul.
Ati lubbuu nama baayʼee galaafachuudhaaf, waan nama qaanessu mana keetti malattee lubbuu keetti badiisa fidde.
11 For the stone shall cry out of the wall, and the beam out of the timber shall answer it.
Dhagaawwan keenyan keessaa iyyu; demdemoon mukaas jalaa qaba.
12 Woe to him that buildeth a town with blood, and establisheth a city by iniquity!
“Nama dhiiga dhangalaasuudhaan magaalaa ijaaruuf, kan yakkaan magaalaa hundeessuuf wayyoo!
13 Behold, [is it] not from the LORD of hosts that the people shall labor in the very fire, and the people shall weary themselves for very vanity?
Akka dadhabbiin namaa akkuma qoraan ibiddaa taʼe, akka saboonnis akkasumaan of dadhabsiisan Waaqayyoon Waan Hunda Dandaʼu murteesseera mitii?
14 For the earth shall be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the LORD, as the waters cover the sea.
Akkuma bishaan galaana guutu sana lafti ulfina Waaqayyoon beekuutiin guutamtiitii.
15 Woe to him that giveth his neighbor drink, that puttest thy bottle to [him], and makest [him] drunken also, that thou mayest look on their nakedness!
“Nama qullaa dhagna ollaa isaa ilaaluuf jedhee hamma inni machaaʼutti qalqalloo keessaa daadhii wayinii isaaf buusuuf wayyoo.
16 Thou art filled with shame for glory: drink thou also, and let thy foreskin be uncovered: the cup of the LORD'S right hand shall be turned to thee, and shameful vomiting [shall be] on thy glory.
Ati qooda ulfinaa qaaniidhaan guutamta. Amma dabareen kan kee ti! Akka qullaan kee mulʼatuuf dhugi. Xoofoon mirga Waaqayyoo sitti garagala; salphinnis ulfina kee haguuga.
17 For the violence of Lebanon shall cover thee, and the spoil of beasts, [which] made them afraid, because of men's blood, and for the violence of the land, of the city, and of all that dwell therein.
Fincilli ati Libaanoonitti hojjete si liqimsa; horii fixuun kee si rifachiisa. Ati dhiiga namaa dhangalaafteertaatii; ati biyyoota, magaalaawwanii fi namoota isaan keessa jiraatan hunda balleessiteerta.
18 What profiteth the graven image that its maker hath graven it; the molten image, and a teacher of lies, that the maker of his work trusteth therein, to make dumb idols?
“Waaqni tolfamaan ogeessa harkaatiin soofamu yookaan fakkiin soba barsiisu faayidaa maalii qaba? Namni isa tolchu tokko hojiidhuma harka isaa amanataatii; inni waaqota tolfamoo dubbachuu hin dandeenye tolcha.
19 Woe to him that saith to the wood, Awake; to the dumb stone, Arise, it shall teach! Behold, it [is] laid over with gold and silver, and [there is] no breath at all in the midst of it.
Nama mukaan, ‘Dammaqi!’ yookaan dhagaa lubbuu hin qabneen, ‘Kaʼi!’ jedhuuf wayyoo. Inni barsiisuu ni dandaʼaa? Kunoo inni warqee fi meetii dibameera; hafuurri tokko iyyuu isa keessa hin jiru.”
20 But the LORD [is] in his holy temple: let all the earth keep silence before him.
Waaqayyo garuu mana qulqullummaa isaa qulqulluu sana keessa jira; lafti hundi fuula isaa duratti haa calʼistu.
