Isaiah 31
1 Woe to those who go down to Egypt for help, and rely on horses, and trust in chariots because they are many, and in horsemen because they are very strong, but they don’t look to the Holy One of Israel, and they don’t seek the LORD!
Warra gargaarsa barbaacha gara Gibxitti gad buʼaniif, warra fardeen abdataniif warra gaariiwwan isaaniitii fi jabina abbootii fardeen isaanii amanatanii garuu gara Qulqullicha Israaʼel hin ilaalle yookaan gargaarsa Waaqayyoo hin barbaanneef wayyoo.
2 Yet he also is wise, and will bring disaster, and will not call back his words, but will arise against the house of the evildoers, and against the help of those who work iniquity.
Taʼus inni ogeessa; balaas fiduu dandaʼa; inni waan jedhe irraa duubatti hin deebiʼu. Inni mana hamootaatti, warra namoota hammina hojjetan gargaaraniitti ni kaʼa.
3 Now the Egyptians are men, and not God; and their horses flesh, and not spirit. When the LORD stretches out his hand, both he who helps shall stumble, and he who is helped shall fall, and they all shall be consumed together.
Warri Gibxi namootuma malee Waaqa miti; fardeen isaaniis foonuma malee hafuura miti. Yeroo Waaqayyo harka isaa diriirfatutti, inni gargaaru ni gufata; inni gargaaramus ni kufa; isaan lachuu walii wajjin badu.
4 For the LORD says to me, “As the lion and the young lion growling over his prey, if a multitude of shepherds is called together against him, will not be dismayed at their voice, nor abase himself for their noise, so the LORD of Armies will come down to fight on Mount Zion and on its heights.
Waaqayyo akkana naan jedha: “Akkuma leenci, leenci guddaan tokko waan qabate irratti aadu sana, tuunni tiksootaa guutuun isatti wal waammatan iyyuu, inni iyya isaanii hin sodaatu; yookaan waca isaaniitiin hin raafamu; akkasuma Waaqayyoon Waan Hunda Dandaʼu Tulluu Xiyoon irratti waraana banuuf gad buʼa.
5 As birds hovering, so the LORD of Armies will protect Jerusalem. He will protect and deliver it. He will pass over and preserve it.”
Akkuma simbirroon mataa namaa irra naannoftu sana Waaqayyoon Waan Hunda Dandaʼu Yerusaalemiif gaachana taʼa; inni gaachana taʼeefii ishee baraara; ishee bira darba; ishee oolchas.”
6 Return to him from whom you have deeply revolted, children of Israel.
Yaa saba Israaʼel, gara Isa akka malee itti finciltan sanaatti deebiʼaa.
7 For in that day everyone shall cast away his idols of silver and his idols of gold—sin which your own hands have made for you.
Bara sana tokkoon tokkoon keessan waaqota tolfamoo harki keessan cubbamaan sun meetii fi warqee irraa hojjetee ture sana ni gattuutii.
8 “The Assyrian will fall by the sword, not of man; and the sword, not of mankind, shall devour him. He will flee from the sword, and his young men will become subject to forced labor.
“Asoor goraadee kan namaa hin taʼiniin kufti; goraadeen nama duʼa hin oollees isaan fixa. Isaan goraadee duraa baqatu; dargaggoonni isaaniis dirqamaan hojii humnaa hojjetu.
9 His rock will pass away by reason of terror, and his princes will be afraid of the banner,” says the LORD, whose fire is in Zion, and his furnace in Jerusalem.
Daʼoon isaanii sababii sodaatiif ni jiga; ajajjoonni isaaniis faajjii waraanaa arganii hollatu” jedha Waaqayyo, inni ibiddi isaa Xiyoon keessa, kan boolli ibidda isaa immoo Yerusaalem keessa jiru sun.
