< Isaiah 29 >

1 Woe [to] Ariel, Ariel, The city of the encampment of David! Add year to year, let festivals go round.
Yaa Ariiʼeel, yaa Ariiʼeel, magaalaa Daawit keessa jiraate, siif wayyoo! Waggaa irratti waggaa dabalaa; ayyaanonni waggaas ittuma haa fufan.
2 And I have sent distress to Ariel, And it hath been lamentation and mourning, And it hath been to me as Ariel.
Taʼus ani Ariiʼeelin marsee nan qaba; isheen boossee ni wawwaatti; isheen anaaf akka Ariiʼeel taati.
3 And I encamped, O babbler, against thee, And I laid siege against thee — a camp. And I raised up against thee bulwarks.
Ani karaa hundaan naannoo kee nan qubadha; gamoowwaniinis sin marsa; tuullaa biyyoos sitti naannessee nan dhaaba.
4 And thou hast been low, From the earth thou speakest, And from the dust makest thy saying low, And thy voice hath been from the earth, As one having a familiar spirit, And from the dust thy saying whisperest,
Ati gad deebifamtee lafa irraa ni dubbatta; haasaan kee biyyoo keessaa guunguma. Sagaleen kee akka sagalee ekeraa lafa keessaa baʼa; haasaan kees biyyoo keessaa hasaasa.
5 And as small dust hath been The multitude of those scattering thee, And as chaff passing on the multitude of the terrible, And it hath been at an instant — suddenly.
Diinonni kee hedduun garuu akka awwaara bullaaʼee, gara jabeeyyiin baayʼeenis akka habaqii bubbeen fudhatee taʼu. Akkuma tasaa utuu hin beekaminis,
6 By Jehovah of Hosts thou art inspected, With thunder, and with an earthquake, And great noise, hurricane, and whirlwind, And flame of devouring fire.
Waaqayyoon Waan Hunda Dandaʼu, bakakkaadhaan, sochii lafaatii fi waca guddaadhaan, bubbeedhaan, bubbee hamaa fi arraba ibidda waa fixuutiin ni dhufa.
7 And as a dream, a vision of night, hath been The multitude of all the nations Who are warring against Ariel, And all its warriors, and its bulwark, Even of those distressing her.
Ergasii tuunni saboota hundaa kan Ariiʼeeliin lolu, kan ishee fi daʼoo ishee jajjaboo dhaʼee marsee qabu, akkuma abjuu, akkuma mulʼata halkan keessaa taʼa;
8 And it hath been, as when the hungry dreameth, And lo, he is eating, And he hath waked, and empty [is] his soul, And as when the thirsty dreameth, And lo, he is drinking, and he hath waked, And lo, he is weary, and his soul is longing, So is the multitude of all the nations Who are warring against mount Zion.
kunis akkuma namni beelaʼe tokko akka waa nyaachaa jiru abjuudhaan argee yeroo dammaqutti garuu amma illee beela qabu sana, yookaan akkuma namni dheebote tokko akka waa dhugaa jiru abjuudhaan argee yeroo dammaqutti garuu amma illee dheebuudhaan gaggabu sana taʼa. Tuuta saboota hundaa kan Tulluu Xiyoon lolu irrattis akkasuma taʼa.
9 Tarry and wonder, look ye, yea, look, Be drunk, and not with wine, Stagger, and not with strong drink.
Rifadhaa; dinqisiifadhaas; of jaamsaatii nama waa hin argine taʼaa; machaaʼaa; garuu daadhii wayiniitiin hin taʼin; gatantaraa; garuu dhugaatii jabaadhaan hin taʼin.
10 For poured out on you hath Jehovah a spirit of deep sleep, And He closeth your eyes — the prophets, And your heads — the seers — He covered.
Waaqayyo hirriba cimaa isinitti buuseera; ija keessan raajota, cufeera; mataa keessan ilaaltootas, haguugeera.
11 And the vision of the whole is to you, As words of the sealed book, That they give unto one knowing books, Saying, 'Read this, we pray thee,' And he hath said, 'I am not able, for it [is] sealed;'
Mulʼanni kun hundi isiniif dubbii kitaaba maramaa irratti chaappeffame malee homaa miti. Yoo isin kitaaba kana nama dubbisuu dandaʼu tokkotti kennitanii, “Maaloo mee waan kana dubbisi” jettaniin inni, “Sababii kitaabichi chaappeffameef ani dubbisuu hin dandaʼu” jedhee deebisa.
12 And the book is given to him who hath not known books, Saying, 'Read this, we pray thee,' And he hath said, 'I have not known books.'
Yookaan yoo isin kitaaba maramaa kana nama dubbisuu hin dandeenye tokkotti kennitanii, “Maaloo mee waan kana dubbisi” jettaniin inni, “Ani akkamitti akkan dubbisu hin beeku” jedhee deebisa.
13 And the Lord saith: Because drawn near hath this people, with its mouth, And with its lips they have honoured Me, And its heart it hath put far off from Me, And their fear of Me is — A precept of men is taught!
Gooftaan akkana jedha: “Uummanni kun afaan isaatiin natti dhiʼaata; hidhii isaatiinis na kabaja; garaan isaa garuu narraa fagoo jira. Waaqeffannaan isaan na waaqeffatanis seera namni barsiisu qofaan tolfame.
14 Therefore, lo, I am adding to do wonderfully with this people, A wonder, and a marvel, And perished hath the wisdom of its wise ones, And the understanding of its intelligent ones hideth itself.'
Kanaafuu ani amma illee dinqii irratti dinqii dabalee uummata kana nan dinqisiisa; ogummaan nama ogeessaa ni bada; hubannaan hubattootaas ni dhokata.”
15 Woe [to] those going deep from Jehovah to hide counsel, And whose works have been in darkness. And they say, 'Who is seeing us? And who is knowing us?'
Warra karoora isaanii Waaqayyo duraa dhokfachuuf jedhanii qileetti gad buʼaniif, warra hojii isaanii dukkana keessatti hojjetanii, “Eenyutu nu arga? Eenyutu beeka?” jedhanii yaadaniif wayyoo!
16 Your perversion! as clay is the potter esteemed? That the work saith of its maker, 'He hath not made me?' And the framed thing said of its framer, 'He did not understand?'
Kun jalʼina keessan, suphee dhooftuu akka supheetti ilaaltu! Wanni tolchame tokko nama isa tolcheen “Inni na hin tolchine” jedhaa? Okkoteen tokko suphee dhooftuudhaan, “Inni homaa hin beeku” jechuu dandaʼaa?
17 Is it not yet a very little, And turned hath Lebanon to a fruitful field, And the fruitful field for a forest is reckoned?
Libaanoon yeroo gabaabaa keessatti lafa qotiisaa gabbatte hin taatuu? Lafti qonnaa gabbataan sunis bosona hin fakkaattuu?
18 And heard in that day have the deaf the words of a book, And out of thick darkness, and out of darkness, The eyes of the blind do see.
Gaafas duudaan dubbii kitaaba maramaa ni dhagaʼa; iji nama jaamaa dimimmisaa fi dukkana keessatti ni arga.
19 And the humble have added joy in Jehovah, And the poor among men In the Holy One of Israel rejoice.
Namni gad of qabu ammas Waaqayyotti ni gammada; rakkattoonnis Qulqullicha Israaʼel sanaan ni gammadu.
20 For ceased hath the terrible one, And consumed hath been the scorner, And cut off have been all watching for iniquity,
Gara jabeeyyiin ni badu; warri namatti qoosan ni barbadaaʼu; warri hammina hojjechuu jaallatan hundinuu ni balleeffamu;
21 Causing men to sin in word, And for a reprover in the gate lay a snare, And turn aside into emptiness the righteous.
warri dubbiin yakkamaa nama godhan, warri namicha mana murtiitti namaaf falmu dura kiyyoo kaaʼanii sobaan dhugaa baʼuudhaan murtii qajeelaa nama yakka hin qabnee jalʼisan ni balleeffamu.
22 Therefore, thus said Jehovah, Who ransomed Abraham, Concerning the house of Jacob: 'Not now ashamed is Jacob, Nor now doth his face become pale,
Kanaafuu Waaqayyo inni Abrahaamin fure sun mana Yaaqoobiin akkana jedha: “Yaaqoob siʼachi deebiʼee hin qaanaʼu; fuulli isaas siʼachi hin dukkanaaʼu.
23 For in his seeing his children, The work of My hand, in his midst, They sanctify My name, And have sanctified the Holy One of Jacob, And the God of Israel they declare fearful.
Isaan yeroo gidduu isaaniitti ijoollee isaanii hojii harka kootii sana arganitti, maqaa koo ni qulqulleessu; isaan qulqullummaa Qulqullicha Yaaqoob ni beeku; Waaqa Israaʼelis sodaachuudhaan ni jiraatu.
24 And the erring in spirit have known understanding, And murmurers learn doctrine!'
Warri dogoggoran hubannaa ni argatu; warri guungumanis qajeelfama ni fudhatu.”
