Jeremiah 48
1 Of Moab. Yahweh of Armies, the God of Israel, says: “Woe to Nebo! For it is laid waste. Kiriathaim is disappointed. It is taken. Misgab is put to shame and broken down.
Waaʼee Moʼaab: Waaqayyo Waan Hunda Dandaʼu, Waaqni Israaʼel akkana jedha: “Neboof wayyoo; isheen ni diigamtiitii. Kiriyaataayimis ni salphatti; ni qabamti; daʼoowwan ishees ni qaaneffamu; ni diigamus.
2 The praise of Moab is no more. In Heshbon they have devised evil against her: ‘Come! Let’s cut her off from being a nation.’ You also, Madmen, will be brought to silence. The sword will pursue you.
Moʼaab siʼachi hin jajamtu; namoonni Heshboon keessatti, ‘Kottaa saba sana ni balleessinaa’ jedhanii waaʼee kufaatii ishee mariʼatu. Yaa magaalaa Maadmeen jedhamtu atis ni calʼista; goraadeen si ariʼaatii.
3 The sound of a cry from Horonaim, desolation and great destruction!
Iyya Hooronaayimii dhufu, iyya barbadaaʼuu fi badiisaa guddaa dhagaʼaa!
4 Moab is destroyed. Her little ones have caused a cry to be heard.
Moʼaab ni cabdi; ijoolleen ishees ni booʼu.
5 For they will go up by the ascent of Luhith with continual weeping. For at the descent of Horonaim they have heard the distress of the cry of destruction.
Isaan akka malee booʼaa, Luuhiitiitti ol baʼu; karaa gara Hooronaayimitti gad buusu irratti iyya badiisaa dhagaʼu.
6 Flee! Save your lives! Be like the juniper bush in the wilderness.
Baqadhaa! Lubbuu keessan baafadhaa; akka daggala gammoojjii keessaa taʼaa.
7 For, because you have trusted in your works and in your treasures, you also will be taken. Chemosh will go out into captivity, his priests and his princes together.
Isin waan hojii keessanii fi qabeenya keessan amanattaniif, boojuudhaan fudhatamtanii ni deemtu; Kemooshis luboota isaatii fi qondaaltota isaa wajjin boojiʼamee ni fudhatama.
8 The destroyer will come on every city, and no city will escape; the valley also will perish, and the plain will be destroyed, as Yahweh has spoken.
Balleessituun sun magaalaa hundatti ni dhufa; magaalaan tokko iyyuu isa jalaa hin baʼu. Sababii Waaqayyo dubbateef sululli ni bada; dirreenis ni barbadeeffama.
9 Give wings to Moab, that she may fly and get herself away: and her cities will become a desolation, without anyone to dwell in them.
Moʼaabitti soogidda firfirsi; isheen ni baddiitii; magaalaawwan ishees nama isaan keessa jiraatu dhabanii onu.
10 “Cursed is he who does the work of Yahweh negligently; and cursed is he who keeps back his sword from blood.
“Namni garaa hirʼuudhaan hojii Waaqayyoo hojjetu abaaramaa haa taʼu! Namni goraadee isaatiin dhiiga dhangalaasuu didus abaaramaa haa taʼu!
11 “Moab has been at ease from his youth, and he has settled on his dregs, and has not been emptied from vessel to vessel, neither has he gone into captivity; therefore his taste remains in him, and his scent is not changed.
“Moʼaab akkuma daadhii wayinii kan siicoo isaa irratti hafe kan okkotee tokko keessaa gara okkotee kaaniitti gara hin galfaminii ijoollummaa isheetii jalqabdee boqochaa turte; boojiʼamtees hin fudhatamne. Kanaafuu isheen akkuma durii miʼoofti; urgaan ishees hin geeddaramne.
12 Therefore behold, the days come,” says Yahweh, “that I will send to him those who pour off, and they will pour him off; and they will empty his vessels, and break their containers in pieces.
Garuu barri ani itti namoota okkotee keessaa dhangalaasan ergu tokko ni dhufa. Isaanis gad ishee naqu; okkotee ishee duwwaa hambisanii gaanii ishee cabsu” jedha Waaqayyo.
13 Moab will be ashamed of Chemosh, as the house of Israel was ashamed of Bethel, their confidence.
“Yoos akkuma manni Israaʼel yeroo Beetʼeelin amanatetti qaanaʼe sana Moʼaabis Kemooshitti ni qaanaʼa.
14 “How do you say, ‘We are mighty men, and valiant men for the war’?
“Isin akkamiin ‘Nu gootota; nu waraana keessatti jajjaboo dha’ jechuu dandeessu?
15 Moab is laid waste, and they have gone up into his cities, and his chosen young men have gone down to the slaughter,” says the King, whose name is Yahweh of Armies.
Moʼaab ni barbadoofti; magaalaawwan ishees ni qabatamu; dargaggoonni ishee filatamoon gara qalmaatti geeffamu” jedha Mootichi maqaan isaa Waaqayyoo Waan Hunda Dandaʼu jedhamu sun.
16 “The calamity of Moab is near to come, and his affliction hurries fast.
“Kufaatiin Moʼaab gaʼeera; badiisni ishees dafee ni dhufa.
17 All you who are around him, bemoan him; and all you who know his name, say, ‘How the strong staff is broken, the beautiful rod!’
Warri naannoo ishee jiraatan hundi, warri maqaa ishee beektan hundi ‘Bokkuun jabaan sun akkamitti cabe! Uleen ulfina qabeessi sun akkamitti cabe!’ jedhaa booʼaafii.
18 “You daughter who dwells in Dibon, come down from your glory, and sit in thirst; for the destroyer of Moab has come up against you. He has destroyed your strongholds.
“Yaa jiraattuu Diiboon, ulfina kee irraa gad buʼiitii lafa goggogaa irra taaʼi! Barbadeessaan Moʼaab sun sitti dhufee magaalaawwan kee kanneen dallaa jabaan marfaman ni diigaatii.
19 Inhabitant of Aroer, stand by the way and watch. Ask him who flees, and her who escapes; say, ‘What has been done?’
Ati kan Aroʼeer keessa jiraattu, karaa cina dhaabadhuutii ilaali. Dhiira baqatuu fi dubartii miliqxu gaafadhu; ‘Maaltu dhalate?’ jedhii isaan gaafadhu.
20 Moab is disappointed; for it is broken down. Wail and cry! Tell it by the Arnon, that Moab is laid waste.
Moʼaab waan diigamteef qaanofteerti. Wawwaadhuu booʼi! Arnoon biratti akka Moʼaab barbadooftee jirtu labsi.
21 Judgment has come on the plain country— on Holon, on Jahzah, on Mephaath,
Murtiin dirree ol kaʼaatti: Hooloonitti, Yaahizaa fi Meefiʼaatti,
22 on Dibon, on Nebo, on Beth Diblathaim,
Diiboonitti, Neboo fi Beet Diblaataayimitti,
23 on Kiriathaim, on Beth Gamul, on Beth Meon,
Kiriyaataayimitti, Beet Gaamulii fi Beet Meʼoonitti,
24 on Kerioth, on Bozrah, and on all the cities of the land of Moab, far or near.
Keriiyoottii fi Bozraatti, magaalaawwan Moʼaab kanneen fagoo fi dhiʼoo jiran hundatti dhufeera.
25 The horn of Moab is cut off, and his arm is broken,” says Yahweh.
Gaanfi Moʼaab irraa murameera; irreen ishees caccabeera” jedha Waaqayyo.
26 “Make him drunk, for he magnified himself against Yahweh. Moab will wallow in his vomit, and he also will be in derision.
“Waan isheen Waaqayyotti koorteef dhugaatiidhaan ishee macheessaa. Moʼaab diddiga ofii ishee irra haa gangalattu; waan qoosaas haa taatu.
27 For wasn’t Israel a derision to you? Was he found among thieves? For as often as you speak of him, you shake your head.
Israaʼel si duratti waan qoosaa hin turree? Akka ati yeroo waaʼee ishee dubbattu hunda tuffiidhaan mataa kee isheetti raaftuuf isheen hattoota gidduutti qabamtee?
28 You inhabitants of Moab, leave the cities, and dwell in the rock. Be like the dove that makes her nest over the mouth of the abyss.
Isin warri Moʼaab keessa jiraattan, magaalaawwan keessan keessaa baʼaatii kattaawwan keessa jiraadhaa. Akkuma gugee mana ishee afaan holqaatti ijaarrattuu taʼa.
29 “We have heard of the pride of Moab. He is very proud in his loftiness, his pride, his arrogance, and the arrogance of his heart.
“Nu waaʼee of tuulummaa Moʼaab jechuunis akka malee of guddisuu fi ofiin boonuu ishee, of tuuluu fi of jajuu ishee, of bokoksuu ishee dhageenyeerra.
30 I know his wrath,” says Yahweh, “that it is nothing; his boastings have done nothing.
Ani addaggummaa Moʼaab beeka; garuu faayidaa hin qabaatu” jedha Waaqayyo; “Of tuuluun ishees homaa hin fayyaduuf”
31 Therefore I will wail for Moab. Yes, I will cry out for all Moab. They will mourn for the men of Kir Heres.
Kanaafuu ani Moʼaabiif nan wawwaadha; Moʼaab hundaaf hiqqifadhee booʼa; ani namoota Qiir Hareeshetiif nan gadda.
32 With more than the weeping of Jazer I will weep for you, vine of Sibmah. Your branches passed over the sea. They reached even to the sea of Jazer. The destroyer has fallen on your summer fruits and on your vintage.
Yaa muka wayinii Sibimaa, ani akkuma Yaʼizeeriif booʼu sana siifin booʼa. Dameen kee hamma galaanaatti diriirtee fagaatte; isheen hamma galaana Yaʼizeeritti diriirtee deemti. Balleessituun sun ija kee bilchaataa fi hurbuu wayinii keetii irra buʼeera.
33 Gladness and joy is taken away from the fruitful field and from the land of Moab. I have caused wine to cease from the wine presses. No one will tread with shouting. The shouting will be no shouting.
Lafa biqiltuutii fi lafa qotiisaa midhaan Moʼaab keessaa ilillee fi gammachuun badeera. Ani iddoo itti wayinii cuunfan irraa wayinii kuteera; namni tokko iyyuu gammadaa sirbee isaan hin cuunfu. Wacni yoo jiraatee illee inni waca gammachuu miti.
34 From the cry of Heshbon even to Elealeh, even to Jahaz they have uttered their voice, from Zoar even to Horonaim, to Eglath Shelishiyah; for the waters of Nimrim will also become desolate.
“Sababii bishaan Niimriim gogeef, sagaleen iyya isaanii ol kaʼee, Heshboonii hamma Eleʼaaleettii fi Yaahaziitti, Zoʼaarii hamma Hooronaayimittii fi hamma Eglaati Sheelishiyaatti ni dhagaʼama ture.
35 Moreover I will cause to cease in Moab,” says Yahweh, “him who offers in the high place, and him who burns incense to his gods.
Ani warra iddoowwan sagadaa kanneen gaarran irraatti aarsaa dhiʼeessanii waaqota isaaniif ixaana aarsan Moʼaab keessaa nan balleessa” jedha Waaqayyo.
36 Therefore my heart sounds for Moab like flutes, and my heart sounds like flutes for the men of Kir Heres. Therefore the abundance that he has gotten has perished.
“Kanaafuu garaan koo akkuma ulullee faarsee Moʼaabiif booʼa; akkuma ulullee faarsee namoota Qiir Hareeshetiif booʼa. Qabeenyi isaan horatan duraa badeera.
37 For every head is bald, and every beard clipped. There are cuttings on all the hands, and sackcloth on the waist.
Mataan hundinuu haadamee hareedni hundinuu cirameera; harki hundinuu muramee mudhiin hundis wayyaa gaddaatiin hidhameera.
38 On all the housetops of Moab, and in its streets, there is lamentation everywhere; for I have broken Moab like a vessel in which no one delights,” says Yahweh.
Waan ani akkuma okkotee namni tokko iyyuu hin feeneetti Moʼaabin caccabseef bantii mana Moʼaab hunda irraa fi oobdii sabaa keessa booʼicha malee wanni tokko iyyuu hin jiru” jedha Waaqayyo.
39 “How it is broken down! How they wail! How Moab has turned the back with shame! So will Moab become a derision and a terror to all who are around him.”
“Isheen akkam akkas caccabde! Isaan akkam akkas wawwaatu! Moʼaab akkam akkas dugda ishee qaaniidhaan garagalfatte! Moʼaab waan kolfaa taatee, warra naannoo ishee jiraatan hundaaf waan sodaa taateerti.”
40 For Yahweh says: “Behold, he will fly as an eagle, and will spread out his wings against Moab.
Waaqayyo akkana jedha: “Ilaa! Risaan tokko Moʼaab irratti qoochoo balʼisee furguggifamaa gad buʼaa jira.
41 Kerioth is taken, and the strongholds are seized. The heart of the mighty men of Moab at that day will be as the heart of a woman in her pangs.
Keriiyooti ni qabamti; daʼannoon ishee jajjaboonis ni fudhatamu. Bara sana keessa garaan loltoota Moʼaab akkuma garaa dubartii ciniinsifachuutti jirtu tokkoo taʼa.
42 Moab will be destroyed from being a people, because he has magnified himself against Yahweh.
Moʼaab sababii Waaqayyoon tuffatteef barbadooftee saba taʼuun ishee ni hafa.
43 Terror, the pit, and the snare are on you, inhabitant of Moab,” says Yahweh.
Yaa saba Moʼaab sodaan, boollii fi kiyyoon si eeggata” jedha Waaqayyo.
44 “He who flees from the terror will fall into the pit; and he who gets up out of the pit will be taken in the snare, for I will bring on him, even on Moab, the year of their visitation,” says Yahweh.
“Namni sodaa sana duraa baqatu kam iyyuu boolla keessa buʼa; namni boolla sana keessaa ol baʼu kam iyyuu kiyyoodhaan qabama; ani Moʼaabitti waggaa adabamuu ishee nan fidaatii” jedha Waaqayyo.
45 “Those who fled stand without strength under the shadow of Heshbon; for a fire has gone out of Heshbon, and a flame from the middle of Sihon, and has devoured the corner of Moab, and the crown of the head of the tumultuous ones.
“Baqattoonni waan taʼan dhabanii gaaddisa Heshboon jala dhadhaabatu; Heshboon keessaa ibiddi tokko, Sihoon gidduudhaas arrabni ibiddaa ni kaʼaatii; inni adda Moʼaab guba, buqqee mataa of tuultotaas ni guba.
46 Woe to you, O Moab! The people of Chemosh are undone; for your sons are taken away captive, and your daughters into captivity.
Yaa Moʼaab siif wayyoo! Uummanni Kemoosh barbadaaʼeera; Ilmaan kee boojiʼamanii fudhatamaniiru; intallan kees boojiʼamaniiru.
47 “Yet I will reverse the captivity of Moab in the latter days,” says Yahweh. Thus far is the judgment of Moab.
“Taʼu illee ani bara dhufuuf jiru keessa hambaa Moʼaab deebisee nan dhaaba” jedha Waaqayyo. Murtiin Moʼaabitti murame sun asitti dhuma.
