1 Ici nĩcio ciugo cia Mũrutani, mũrũ wa Daudi, ũrĩa warĩ mũthamaki kũu Jerusalemu:
Dubbii lallabaa ilma Daawit, isa Yerusaalem keessaatti mootii taʼe sanaa:
2 “Maũndũ mothe nĩ ma tũhũ! Ĩĩ nĩ ma tũhũ!” Ũguo nĩguo Mũrutani ekuuga. “Ti-itherũ nĩ ma tũhũ mũtheri! Maũndũ mothe nĩ ma tũhũ.”
Lallabichi, “Faayidaa hin qabu! Faayidaa hin qabu! Guutumaan guutuutti faayidaa hin qabu! Wanni hundinuu faayidaa hin qabu” jedha.
3 Mũndũ-rĩ, nĩ uumithio ũrĩkũ onaga harĩ wĩra ũrĩa wothe arutaga gũkũ thĩ kwaraga riũa?
Namni hojii isaa kan aduudhaa gaditti itti dadhabu hunda keessaa, buʼaa maalii argata?
4 Rũciaro rũmwe rwathira-rĩ, nĩ rũngĩ rũũkaga, no rĩrĩ, thĩ ĩtũũraga o ho nginya tene na tene.
Dhaloonni ni dhufa; dhaloonni ni darba; lafti garuu bara baraan jiraatti.
5 Riũa rĩrathaga na rĩgathũa, ningĩ rĩgacooka na ihenya kũrĩa rĩrathagĩra.
Biiftuun ni baati; biiftuun ni lixxi; gara baate sanatti deebiʼuufis ni ariifatti.
6 Rũhuho rũhurutanaga rwerekeire mwena wa gũthini, na rũgacooka rũkeerekera mwena wa gathigathini; rũthiiaga o rũgĩthiũrũrũkaga rũtegũtigithĩria, o rũgĩcookaga njĩra-inĩ yaruo.
Bubbeen gara kibbaatti bubbisa; gara kaabaattis ni deebiʼa; innis naannaʼuma naannaʼee deema; karaa isaa irras deddeebiʼa.
7 Njũũĩ ciothe ciĩitagĩrĩra iria-inĩ, no rĩrĩ, iria rĩtirĩ hĩndĩ rĩiyũraga. O kũu njũũĩ ciumaga, nokuo icookaga.
Lagni hundi galaanatti yaaʼa; galaanni garuu hin guutu. Lageen garuma dhufanitti deebiʼanii yaaʼu.
8 Maũndũ mothe marehanagĩra mĩnoga ĩrĩa ĩtangĩgweteka. Riitho rĩtirĩ hĩndĩ rĩiganagia kuona, o na kana gũtũ gũkaigania kũigua.
Wanni hundinuu hamma namni tokko dubbachuu dandaʼu caalaa dadhabsiisaa dha. Iji argee hin quufu; yookaan gurri dhagaʼee hin guutu.
9 Maũndũ marĩa maanakorwo kuo no mo macookaga gũkorwo kuo rĩngĩ, naguo ũndũ ũrĩa waneekwo noguo ũcookaga ũgeekwo rĩngĩ; gũtirĩ ũndũ ũtarĩ woneka gũkũ thĩ kwaraga riũa.
Wanni duraan ture ammas ni taʼa; wanni duraan hojjetame ammas ni hojjetama; aduudhaa gaditti wanni haaraan tokko iyyuu hin jiru.
10 Hihi nĩ harĩ ũndũ mũndũ angiuga atĩrĩ: “Ta rora! Ũyũ nĩ ũndũ ũtarĩ wonekana”? Ũndũ ũcio warĩ kuo hĩndĩ ndaaya hĩtũku; warĩ kuo tũtarĩ twaciarwo.
Wanni namni tokko, “Ilaa! Wanni kun haaraa dha” jechuu dandaʼu kam iyyuu jiraa? Wanni kun duraanuu bara dheeraan dura as ture; bara keenyaan dura iyyuu asuma ture.
11 Andũ arĩa maarĩ kuo tene matiririkanagwo, na o na arĩa matarĩ maraciarwo matikaaririkanwo nĩ arĩa magaaciarwo thuutha wao.
Namoonni bara durii hin yaadataman; kanneen dhufuuf jiranis warra isaan duubaan dhufaniin hin yaadataman.
12 Niĩ Mũrutani-rĩ, ndaarĩ mũthamaki wathamakagĩra Isiraeli kũu Jerusalemu.
Ani Lallabaan, Yerusaalem keessatti mootii Israaʼelin ture.
13 Nĩnderutĩire na kĩyo kwĩruta, na gũtuĩria na ũũgĩ maũndũ mothe marĩa mekagwo gũkũ thĩ. Kaĩ Ngai nĩakuuithĩtie andũ mũrigo mũritũ-ĩ!
Ani waan samii gaditti hojjetame hunda ogummaadhaan quʼadhee qoradhee bira gaʼuuf of kenneen ture. Waaqni baʼaa ulfaataa akkamii nama irra kaaʼe!
14 Nĩndĩĩoneire maũndũ marĩa mothe mekagwo gũkũ thĩ kwaraga riũa; maũndũ mothe no ma tũhũ, na ũguo no ta gũtengʼeria rũhuho.
Ani waan aduudhaa gaditti hojjetame hunda argeera; hundi isaanii iyyuu faayidaa hin qaban; kun akkuma nama bubbee ariʼuu ti.
15 Kĩndũ kĩrĩa kĩogomu gĩtingĩrũngĩka; nakĩo kĩrĩa gĩtarĩ ho gĩtingĩtarwo.
Wanni jalʼifame tokko deebiʼee hin qajeelfamu; wanni hin jirres lakkaaʼamuu hin dandaʼu.
16 Na niĩ ngĩĩciiria, ngiuga na ngoro yakwa atĩrĩ, “Ndĩ mũkũrũ na ngagĩa na ũũgĩ mũingĩ gũkĩra andũ arĩa othe manaathana Jerusalemu mbere yakwa; nĩmenyete maũndũ maingĩ makoniĩ ũũgĩ na ũmenyo.”
Anis akkana jedheen yaade; “Kunoo, ani nama anaan dura Yerusaalemin bulchaa ture kam iyyuu caalaa guddadhee ogummaas dabaladheera; ani muuxannoo ogummaatii fi beekumsaa guddaa argadheera.”
17 Ningĩ nĩnderutire na ngoro yakwa kũmenya ũhoro wa ũũgĩ, o na kũmenya ũhoro wa ũgũrũki na wa ũrimũ, no ngĩmenya atĩ ũhoro ũcio, o naguo, no ta gũtengʼeria rũhuho.
Kanaafuu ani ogummaa, maraatummaa fi gowwummaa hubachuufin of kenne; garuu ani akka wanni kunis bubbee ariʼuu taʼe nan baradhe.
18 Nĩgũkorwo o ũrĩa ũũgĩ waingĩha, noguo ihooru rĩingĩhĩte; na ũrĩa ũmenyo waingĩha, noguo kĩeha kĩingĩhĩte.
Ogummaa guddaa keessa gadda baayʼeetu jiraatii; akkuma beekumsi dabalamuun gaddis dabalama.
