< Isaiah 65 >

1 I have been inquired of by those who asked not, I have been found by those who sought Me not, I have said, 'Behold Me, behold Me,' Unto a nation not calling in My name.
“Ani warra na hin iyyaafatinitti nan mulʼadhe; warri na hin barbaadinis na argatan. Ani saba maqaa koo hin waammatiniin, ‘Ani asan jira; ani asan jira’ nan jedhe.
2 I have spread out My hands all the day Unto an apostate people, Who are going in the way not good after their own thoughts.
Ani guyyaa guutuu gara uummata didaa taʼeetti, kan karaa gaarii hin taʼin irra deemu, kan yaada ofii isaa duukaa buʼuuf harka koo nan diriirfadhe;
3 The people who are provoking Me to anger, To My face continually, Sacrificing in gardens, and making perfume on the bricks:
Isaan saba iddoo biqiltuu keessatti aarsaa dhiʼeessuudhaan, iddoo aarsaa kan xuubii irrattis ixaana aarsuudhaan, utuu gargar hin kutin, utuma ani arguu dheekkamsaaf na kakaasanii dha;
4 Who are dwelling among sepulchres, And lodge in reserved places, Who are eating flesh of the sow, And a piece of abominable things — their vessels.
isaan warra awwaala gidduu tataaʼanii lafa dhoksaa bulanii dha; warra foon booyyee nyaatanii okkoteen isaanii bishaan foon xuraaʼaa baatuu dha;
5 Who are saying, 'Keep to thyself, come not nigh to me, For I have declared thee unholy.' These [are] a smoke in Mine anger, A fire burning all the day.
isaan warra, ‘Achi fagaadhu; natti hin dhiʼaatin; ani si caalaa qulqulluudhaatii!’ jedhanii dha. Sabni akkasii funyaan koo keessatti akkuma aaraa, akkuma ibidda guyyaa guutuu bobaʼuu ti.
6 Lo, it is written before Me: 'I am not silent, but have recompensed; And I have recompensed into their bosom,
“Kunoo, wanni kun akkana jedhamee fuula koo duratti barreeffameera: ani hin calʼisu; garuu gatii hojii isaanii guutuu nan kennaaf; dhugumaanis qomatti isaan nan baachisa.
7 Your iniquities, and the iniquities of your fathers together, said Jehovah, Who have made perfume on the mountains, And on the heights have reproached Me, And I have measured their former work into their bosom.'
Kunis cubbuu keessanii fi cubbuu abbootii keessanii ti” jedha Waaqayyo. “Isaan tulluuwwan irratti aarsaa dhiʼeessanii, gaarran irratti waan na arrabsaniif, ani hojii isaanii kan duriitiif, kaffaltii guutuu isaaniifin kenna.”
8 Thus said Jehovah: As the new wine is found in the cluster, And one hath said, 'Destroy it not for a blessing [is] in it,' So I do for My servants' sake, not to destroy the whole.
Waaqayyo akkana jedha: “Akkuma yeroo hurbuu wayinii keessa cuunfaan jirutti, namoonni, ‘Amma iyyuu eebbatu keessa jiraatii, hin balleessinaa’ jedhan sana, anis tajaajiltoota kootiif akkasuma nan godha; isaan hundas hin balleessu.
9 And I have brought out from Jacob a seed, And from Judah a possessor of My mount, And possess it do My chosen ones, And My servants do dwell there.
Anis Yaaqoob keessaa sanyii tokko, Yihuudaa keessaa immoo warra tulluuwwan koo dhaalan nan biqilcha; sabni koo filatamaan tulluuwwan sana dhaala; tajaajiltoonni koos achi ni jiraatu.
10 And Sharon hath been for the habitation of a flock, And the valley of Achor for the lying down of a herd, For My people who have sought Me.
Saba koo kan na barbaaduuf Shaaroon lafa bushaayeen itti bobbaʼan, Sululli Aakoor immoo lafa loon boqotan ni taʼan.
11 And ye [are] those forsaking Jehovah, Who are forgetting My holy mountain, Who are setting in array for Gad a table, And who are filling for Meni a mixture.
“Garuu isin warra Waaqayyoon dhiiftanii tulluu koo qulqulluu dagattan, kanneen waaqa ‘Milkii’ jedhamuuf maaddii qopheessitanii, waaqa, ‘Hiree’ jedhamuuf immoo dhibaayyuu kubbaayyaatti guuttan,
12 And I have numbered you for the sword, And all of you for slaughter bow down, Because I called, and ye have not answered, I have spoken, and ye have not hearkened, And ye do the evil thing in Mine eyes, And on that which I desired not — fixed.
ani irbaata goraadee isinan godha; isin hundis qalamuuf gad jettu; ani isin waameen ture; isin garuu na jalaa hin owwaanne; ani dubbadheen ture; isin garuu na hin dhaggeeffanne. Isin fuuluma koo duratti waan hamaa hojjettanii waan na hin gammachiifne filattan.”
13 Therefore, thus said the Lord Jehovah: Lo, My servants do eat, and ye do hunger, Lo, My servants do drink, and ye do thirst, Lo, My servants rejoice, and ye are ashamed,
Kanaafuu Waaqayyo Gooftaan akkana jedha: “Garboonni koo ni nyaatu; isin garuu ni beeloftu; garboonni koo ni dhugu; isin garuu ni dheebottu; garboonni koo ni gammadu; isin garuu ni qaanoftu.
14 Lo, My servants sing from joy of heart, And ye cry from pain of heart, And from breaking of spirit ye do howl.
Garboonni koo gammachuu garaa irraa maddeen ni faarfatu; isin garuu, waan garaan keessan miidhameef ni boossu; waan hafuurri keessan gaddeef ni wawwaattu.
15 And ye have left your name For an oath for My chosen ones, And the Lord Jehovah hath put thee to death, And to His servants He giveth another name.
Filatamtoonni koo maqaa isin dabarfattan sana abaarsaaf itti fayyadamu; Waaqayyo Gooftaan isin fixa; garboota isaatiif garuu maqaa biraa ni kenna.
16 So that he who is blessing himself in the earth, Doth bless himself In the God of faithfulness, And he who is swearing in the earth, Doth swear by the God of faithfulness, Because the former distresses have been forgotten, And because they have been hid from Mine eyes.
Namni lafa irratti eebbifamu kam iyyuu, Waaqa dhugaatiin eebbifama; namni lafa irratti kakatus, Waaqa dhugaatiin kakata. Rakkinni durii ni irraanfatama; ija koo duraas ni dhokataatii.
17 For, lo, I am creating new heavens, and a new earth, And the former things are not remembered, Nor do they ascend on the heart.
“Kunoo ani, samiiwwan haaraa fi lafa haaraa nan uuma. Wanni durii hin yaadatamu; yookaan qalbii namaatti hin dhufu.
18 But joy ye, and rejoice for ever, that I [am] Creator, For, lo, I am creating Jerusalem a rejoicing, And her people a joy.
Isin garuu waan ani uumutti, bara baraan gammadaa ililchaa; ani Yerusaalemin gammachuuf, saba ishee immoo ililleef nan uumaatii.
19 And I have rejoiced in Jerusalem, And have joyed in My people, And not heard in her any more Is the voice of weeping, and the voice of crying.
Ani Yerusaalemitti nan gammada; saba koottis nan gammada; siʼachi sagaleen booʼichaatii fi iyyaa ishee keessatti hin dhagaʼamu.
20 There is not thence any more a suckling of days, And an aged man who doth not complete his days, For the youth a hundred years old dieth, And the sinner, a hundred years old, is lightly esteemed.
“Siʼachi, daaʼimni guyyaa muraasa qofa jiraatu, yookaan jaarsi umuriin isaa hanqatu tokko iyyuu ishee keessatti hin argamu; namni waggaa dhibbatti duʼu, akka waan dargaggummaan duʼeetti yaadama; namni waggaa dhibba hanqate tokko, akka waan abaarameetti hedama.
21 And they have built houses, and inhabited, And planted vineyards, and eaten their fruit.
Namoonni mana ni ijaarratu; achi keessas ni jiraatu; wayinii dhaabbatu; ija isaas ni nyaatu.
22 They do not build, and another inhabit, They do not plant, and another eat, For as the days of a tree [are] the days of My people, And the work of their hands wear out do My chosen ones.
Siʼachi isaan mana ijaaranii namoonni biraa keessa hin jiraatan; yookaan isaan biqiltuu dhaabanii namoonni biraa hin nyaatan. Umuriin saba koo, akkuma umurii mukaa ni taʼa; warri ani filadhe, hojii harka isaaniitiin bara dheeraa ni gammadu.
23 They labour not for a vain thing, Nor do they bring forth for trouble, For the seed of the blessed of Jehovah [are] they, And their offspring with them.
Isaan akkasumaan hin dadhaban yookaan ijoollee balaan eeggattu hin dhalchan; isaan sanyii isaanii wajjin saba Waaqayyo eebbisu ni taʼu.
24 And it hath come to pass, They do not yet call, and I answer, They are yet speaking, and I hear.
Ani utuu isaan na hin waammatin nan deebisaaf; utuu isaan dubbatanii hin fixinis nan dhagaʼa.
25 Wolf and lamb do feed as one, And a lion as an ox eateth straw, As to the serpent — dust [is] its food, They do no evil, nor destroy, In all My holy mountain, said Jehovah!
Yeeyyii fi xobbaallaan hoolaa walii wajjin nyaatu; leenci akka sangaa okaa nyaata; biyyoon garuu soora bofaa taʼa. Isaan tulluu koo qulqulluu hunda irratti homaa hin miidhan yookaan homaa hin balleessan” jedha Waaqayyo.
