Jeremiah 47

1 The word of the LORD that came to Jeremiah the prophet against the Philistines, before Pharaoh smote Gaza.

Dubbiin Waaqayyoo kan waaʼee Filisxeemotaa kan utuu Faraʼoon Gaazaa hin dhaʼin dura gara Ermiyaas raajichaa dhufe kanaa dha:

2 Thus saith the LORD; Behold, waters rise out of the north, and shall be an overflowing flood, and shall overflow the land, and all that is in it; the city, and them that dwell therein: then the men shall cry, and all the inhabitants of the land shall howl.

Waaqayyo akkana jedha: “Kunoo, karaa kaabaatiin bishaan ol kaʼaa jira; bishaan kunis lolaa guutee irra dhangalaʼu taʼa. Innis biyyattii fi waan ishee keessa jiru, magaalaawwanii fi warra isaan keessa jiraatan hunda irra garagala. Uummanni ni booʼa; warri ishee keessa jiraatan hundis ni wawwaatu;

3 At the noise of the stamping of the hoofs of his strong [horses], at the rushing of his chariots, [and at] the rumbling of his wheels, the fathers shall not look back to [their] children for feebleness of hands:

kunis sababii didicha kottee fardeen gulufanii, girrisa gaariiwwan diinaatii fi qaqawweessa goommaa isaaniitiif. Abbootiin ijoollee isaanii gargaaruuf duubatti gara hin galan; harki isaaniis isaan irratti laamshaʼa.

4 Because of the day that cometh to lay waste all the Philistines, [and] to cut off from Tyre and Zidon every helper that remaineth: for the LORD will lay waste the Philistines, the remnant of the country of Caphtor.

Filisxeemota hunda balleessuuf hambaa Xiiroosii fi Siidoonaa gargaaruuf hafan hundas balleessuuf guyyaan sun dhufeeraatii. Waaqayyo Filisxeemota, hambaa qarqara Kaftoor balleessuu gaʼeera.

5 Baldness is come upon Gaza; Ashkelon is cut off [with] the remnant of their valley: how long wilt thou cut thyself?

Gaazaan gaddaan mataa ishee haaddatti; Ashqaloon ni calʼisti. Yaa hambaa dirree irraa isin hamma yoomiitti of ciccirtu?

6 O thou sword of the LORD, how long [will it be] ere thou be quiet? put up thyself into thy scabbard, rest, and be still.

“Isin, ‘Yaa goraadee Waaqayyoo ati hamma yoomiitti hin boqonne? Manʼee keetti deebiʼi; calʼisii taaʼi’ jettanii iyyitu.

7 How can it be quiet, seeing the LORD hath given it a charge against Ashkelon, and against the sea shore? there hath he appointed it.

Garuu utuu Waaqayyo isa ajajuu, yeroo Waaqni akka inni Ashqaloonii fi qarqara galaanaa dhaʼuuf qajeelfama isaa kennutti inni akkamitti boqochuu dandaʼa?”
