Jeremiah 46
1 That which hath been the word of Jehovah unto Jeremiah the prophet concerning the nations,
Dubbiin Waaqayyoo kan waaʼee sabootaatiif gara Ermiyaas raajichaa dhufe kanaa dha:
2 For Egypt, concerning the force of Pharaoh-Necho king of Egypt, that hath been by the river Phrat, in Carchemish, that Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon hath smitten, in the fourth year of Jehoiakim son of Josiah king of Judah:
Waaʼee Gibxi: Bara Yehooyaaqiim ilmi Yosiyaas mootii Yihuudaa ture keessa, waggaa afuraffaatti ergaan kun gara waraana Faraʼoon Nekkoo mooticha Gibxi kan Nebukadnezar mootichi Baabilon laga Efraaxiis biratti Karkemiishitti moʼate sanaa dhufe:
3 'Set ye in array shield and buckler, And draw nigh to battle.
“Gaachana keessan xinnaa fi guddaa qopheeffadhaatii lolaaf baʼaa!
4 Gird the horses, and go up, ye horsemen, And station yourselves with helmets, Polish the javelins, put on the coats of mail.
Fardeen feʼadhaa; isaan yaabbadhaas! Qoobii sibiilaa kaaʼadhaatii iddoo iddoo keessan qabadhaa. Eeboo keessan qaradhaa; qomee sibiilaa illee uffadhaa!
5 Wherefore have I seen them dismayed — They are turned backward, And their mighty ones are beaten down, And [to] a refuge they have fled, and not turned the face? Fear [is] round about — an affirmation of Jehovah.
Ani maal argaan jira? Isaan naʼanii jiru; dugda duubatti deebiʼaa jiru; gootonni isaanii moʼatamaniiru. Isaan utuu of duuba hin milʼatin ariitiin baqatu; qixa hundaanuu gooliitu jira” jedha Waaqayyo.
6 The swift do not flee, nor do the mighty escape, Northward, by the side of the river Phrat, They have stumbled and fallen.
“Fiigaan baqachuu hin dandaʼu; yookaan namni jabaan jalaa hin baʼu. Isaan karaa kaabaatiin Laga Efraaxiis biratti guggufatanii kukkufu.
7 Who is this? as a flood he cometh up, As rivers do his waters shake themselves!
“Kan akka Abbayyaa, akka laga bishaan isaa cabsee yaaʼuu ol kaʼu kun eenyu?
8 Egypt, as a flood cometh up, And as rivers the waters shake themselves. And he saith, I go up; I cover the land, I destroy the city and the inhabitants in it.
Gibxi akkuma Abbayyaa, akkuma laga bishaan isaa cabsee yaaʼuutti ol kaati. Isheenis, ‘Ani ol kaʼee lafa nan haguuga; magaalaawwanii fi saba isaanii nan balleessa’ jetti.
9 Go up, ye horses; and boast yourselves, ye chariots, And go forth, ye mighty, Cush and Phut handling the shield, And Lud handling — treading the bow.
Yaa fardeen, isin garmaamaa! Yaa gaariiwwan, isinis guulaa! Yaa gootota Itoophiyaatii fi Fuuxi warri gaachana baattan, yaa namoota Luudi warri iddaa qabattan kaʼaatii fuula duratti qajeelaa.
10 And that day [is] to the Lord Jehovah of Hosts A day of vengeance, To be avenged of His adversaries, And the sword hath devoured, and been satisfied, And it hath been watered from their blood, For a sacrifice [is] to the Lord Jehovah of Hosts, In the land of the north, by the river Phrat.
Guyyaan sun garuu guyyaa Gooftaa, kan Waaqayyo Waan Hunda Dandaʼuu, guyyaa haaloo baʼuu, kan inni itti diinota isaa haaloo baafatuu dha. Goraadeen hamma quufutti, hamma dheebuu dhiigaan baʼutti nyaata. Gooftaan, Waaqayyoon Waan Hunda Dandaʼu biyya kaabaa keessatti, Laga Efraaxiis biratti aarsaa dhiʼeessaatii.
11 Go up to Gilead, and take balm, O virgin daughter of Egypt, In vain thou hast multiplied medicines, Healing there is none for thee.
“Yaa Gibxi durba qulqullittii, Giliʼaaditti ol baʼiitii qoricha fudhadhu. Ati akkasumaan qoricha hedduutti fayyadamta; garuu hin fayyitu.
12 Nations have heard of thy shame, And thy cry hath filled the land, For the mighty on the mighty did stumble, Together they have fallen — both of them!'
Saboonni qaanii kee ni dhagaʼu; booʼichi kee lafa guuta. Goonni tokko goota kaanitti gufata; isaan lamaanuu wal qabatanii kufu.”
13 The word that Jehovah hath spoken unto Jeremiah the prophet concerning the coming in of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon, to smite the land of Egypt:
“Dubbiin Waaqayyo akka Nebukadnezar mootiin Baabilon dhufee Gibxi dhaʼu Ermiyaas raajichatti dubbate kanaa dha:
14 'Declare ye in Egypt, and sound in Migdol, Yea, sound in Noph, and in Tahpanhes say: Station thyself, yea, prepare for thee, For a sword hath devoured around thee,
“Waan kana Gibxi keessatti dubbadhu; Migdoolittis labsi; Memfiisii fi Tahiphaanhees keessatti illee akkana jedhaa labsaa: ‘Goraadeen warra naannoo keessan jiru ni fixaatii isin iddoo iddoo keessan qabadhaatii qophaaʼaa.’
15 Wherefore hath thy bull been swept away? He hath not stood, because Jehovah thrust him away.
Gootonni kee maaliif kufanii diriiru? Sababii Waaqayyo gad isaan qabuuf isaan dhaabachuu hin dandaʼan.
16 He hath multiplied the stumbling, Yea one hath fallen upon his neighbour, And they say: Rise, and we turn back to our people, And unto the land of our birth, Because of the oppressing sword.
Isaan ammumaa amma gufatu; wal irrattis kukkufu. Isaanis, ‘Kaʼaa goraadee cunqursaa jalaa baanee gara saba keenyaattii fi biyya itti dhalannetti ni deebinaa’ waliin jedhu.
17 They have cried there: Pharaoh king of Egypt [is] a desolation, Passed by hath the appointed time.
Isaan achitti, ‘Faraʼoon mootichi Gibxi waca qofa; inni carraa ofii isaa dhabeera’ jedhanii iyyu.
18 I live — an affirmation of the King, Jehovah of Hosts [is] His name, Surely as Tabor [is] among mountains, And as Carmel by the sea — he cometh in,
“Dhugaa ana jiraataa” jedha mootichi inni maqaan isaa Waaqayyoo Waan Hunda Dandaʼu taʼe sun “kan gaarran keessaa Taaboor fakkaatu, inni galaana cinatti Qarmeloosin fakkaatu tokko ni dhufa.
19 Goods for removal make for thee, O inhabitant, daughter of Egypt, For Noph becometh a desolation, And hath been burnt up, without inhabitant.
Ati kan Gibxi keessa jiraattu, waan qabdu walitti qabadhuutii baqaaf qophaaʼi; Memfiis ontee diigamtee jiraattota malee haftiitii.
20 A heifer very fair [is] Egypt, Rending from the north doth come into her.
“Gibxi goromsa bareedduu dha; garuu qarxaasaan biyya kaabaatii isheetti ni dhufa.
21 Even her hired ones in her midst [are] as calves of the stall, For even they have turned, They have fled together, they have not stood, For the day of their calamity hath come on them, The time of their inspection.
Loltoonni isheen kiraadhaan bitattee gidduu ishee jiranis akkuma jiboota cocoomanii ti. Sababii guyyaan badiisaa, yeroon itti isaan adabaman isaanitti dhufeef isaanis garagalanii walumaan ni baqatu; iddoo isaanii dhaabatanii of irraa deebisuu hin dandaʼan.
22 Its voice as a serpent goeth on, For with a force they go, And with axes they have come in to her, As hewers of trees.
Gibxi yeroo diinni isheetti dhufutti akkuma bofa waa baqatuu siiqsiti; isaan akkuma namoota muka muraniitti qottoo qabatanii isheetti dhufu.
23 They have cut down her forest, An affirmation of Jehovah — for it is not searched, For they have been more than the grasshopper, And they have no numbering.
Yoo inni hamma fedhe gobbate iyyuu, isaan bosona ishee ciranii balleessu” jedha Waaqayyo. “Isaan hawwaannisa caalaa baayʼatu; lakkaaʼamuus hin dandaʼan.
24 Ashamed hath been the daughter of Egypt, She hath been given into the hand of the people of the north.
Intalli Gibxi ni qaaneffamti; dabarfamtees namoota kaabaatti ni kennamti.”
25 Said hath Jehovah of Hosts, God of Israel: Lo, I am seeing after Amon of No, And after Pharaoh, and after Egypt, And after her gods, and after her kings, And after Pharaoh, and after those trusting in him,
Waaqayyo Waan Hunda Dandaʼu, Waaqni Israaʼel akkana jedha: “Ani Aamoon Waaqa Tebesitti, Faraʼoonitti, Gibxittii fi Waaqa isheetti, mootota isheettii fi warra Faraʼoonin amanatanitti adabbii nan fida.
26 And I have given them into the hand of those seeking their life, And into the hand of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon, And into the hand of his servants, And afterwards it is inhabited, As [in] days of old — an affirmation of Jehovah.
Ani dabarsee warra lubbuu isaanii galaafachuu barbaadanitti, jechuunis Nebukadnezar mooticha Baabilonittii fi qondaaltota isaatti isaan kenna. Ergasii garuu Gibxi akkuma durii lafa namni keessa jiraatu ni taati” jedha Waaqayyo.
27 And thou, thou dost not fear, my servant Jacob, Nor [art] thou dismayed, O Israel, For lo, I am saving thee from afar, And thy seed from the land of their captivity, And Jacob hath turned back, And hath been at rest, and been at ease, And there is none disturbing.
“Yaa Yaaqoob tajaajilaa ko, ati hin sodaatin; yaa Israaʼel atis hin naʼin. Ani lafa fagootii sin baasa; sanyii kee immoo biyya isaan itti boojiʼamanii nan fida. Yaaqoob ammas nagaa fi tasgabbii ni qabaata; namni isa sodaachisu tokko iyyuu hin jiru.
28 Thou, thou dost not fear, My servant Jacob, An affirmation of Jehovah — for with thee I [am], For I make an end of all the nations Whither I have driven thee, And of thee I do not make an end, And I have reproved thee in judgment, And do not entirely acquit thee!'
Yaa Yaaqoob garbicha ko, ati hin sodaatin; anis si wajjinan jiraatii” jedha Waaqayyo. “Ani yoo saboota gidduu isaaniitti si bittinneesse sana guutumaan guutuutti balleesse iyyuu ani guutumaan guutuutti si hin balleessu. Ani sin adaba; garuu qajeelummaa qofaan; akka ati utuu hin adabaminuu gad dhiifamtu hin godhu.”
