Aizaia 17
1 Hanki Damaskasi rankuma'ma havizama hania zamofo nanekea Ra Anumzamo'a amanage huno hu'ne, Damaskasi rankuma'mo'a knare'ma huno menima me'nea zana huno omaneno, haviza huramino mopafi hihi huno megahie.
[I received] this message [from Yahweh] about Damascus [the capital of Syria]: “Listen carefully! Damascus will no longer be a city; it will be [only] a heap of ruins!
2 Ana nehanigeno Aroerima me'nea kumatamimpintira vahe'mo'za atre'za vu'za e'za nehanageno, anampina sipisipi afu'mozage mani'nesnage'za, zamazeri korora osugahaze.
The towns near Aroer [city] will be abandoned. Flocks [of sheep] will [eat grass in the streets and] lie down there, and there will be no one to chase them away.
3 Hanki ha' vahe'mo'za e'za Efraemi mopafima me'nea kumate'ma hankavenentake vihuma hu'naza zana eri haviza nehu'za, Damaskasi kumate'ma kinima nemaniza zana eri netre'za, osi'a naga'ma ofri'za manisaza Aramu vahera zamazeri fanene hugahaze. Ana hanage'za Israeli vahe'mokizmima hiaza huno hankavezmia omenegahie huno Monafi sondia vahe'mofo Ra Anumzamo'a huvempa hu'ne.
The cities in Israel will not have walls around them [to protect them]. The power of the kingdom of Damascus will be ended, and the few people who will remain in Damascus will be disgraced like the people in Israel were disgraced.” [That is what] the Commander of the armies of angels says.
4 Hanki ana knama esigeno'a, Israeli vahera hanavezmimo'a evuramisnigeno, zamavufagamo'a hariri huno zaferinare akamregahie.
“At that time, Israel will become insignificant. It will be [like] [MET] a fat person who has become very thin.
5 Ana nehina mago vahemo Refaimi agupofinti witi raga vasageno, e'nerino mago mago atreankna hu'za osi'a vahe manigahaze.
The entire land will be like [SIM] a field where the harvesters have cut all the grain; there will be nothing left, like [SIM] the fields in the Rephaim Valley after all the crops have been harvested.
6 Ana nehina olivi zafare kanonteti amasagino ruharari higeno amuzare'ma osi'a olivi raga tareo 3'o 4'o 5fu'a meaza hu'za osi'a vahe manigahaze huno Israeli vahe'mokizmi Ra Anumzamo'a huvempa hu'ne.
Only a few of the Israeli people will remain [MET], like [SIM] the few olives that remain on the top of a tree after the workers have caused all the other olives to fall [to the ground]. [There will be only] two or three olives in the top branches, [or] four or five olives on the other branches.” [That is what] the Commander of the armies of angels says.
7 Hagi e'i ana knafina zamagu'a rukrahe hu'za tro'ma huzmante'nea ne' Israeli vahe'mokizmi Ra Anumzama Ruotage'ma hu'nea ne'teke zamavua nege'za antahi amigahaze.
[Then], at that time, [you] people [of Israel] will (turn for help to/look up to) God, your creator, the Holy One of Israel.
8 Zamagra Asera havi anumzamofo amema'a zamazanteti'ma antre'za tro hunte'naza havi anumzantera zamena nonte'za, ana havi anumzante'ma ofama hu' itama tro'ma hunte'narera mnanentake zantamina kre mna vuontegahaze.
You will no [longer] seek to get help from your idols or worship the idols that you have made with your own hands [DOU]. You will never again bow down in front of the poles [where you worship the goddess] Asherah. You will never again worship at the shrines [that you have built for burning incense].
9 Hagi ana knafina ha' vahe'mokizmi ranra kumara Israeli vahe'mo'za hahu zamagatenere'za, ana kuma tamimpima nemaniza vahera zamahenati atregahaze. Ana hina ana kumatamimpina vahera omanisigeno, zafa tanopamo hageno marerino refitegahie.
The largest cities in Israel will be abandoned, like the land that the Hiv and Amor people-groups abandoned (OR, like the forests that the [Canaan people-group] abandoned) when the Israelis [attacked them long ago]. No one will live there.
10 Na'ankure Israeli vahe'mota tamagu'ma vazi'nea Anumzana tamefi hunemita fraki havegantamia tamefi humi'naze. E'ina hu'negu megi'a onke'naza vahe'mofo havi anumzamofo knare waini hoza erita antegahaze.
[That will happen] because you have stopped worshiping God who is [like] [MET] a huge rock under which you can be safe. You have forgotten that he is the one who can hide/protect you. So, [now] you plant very nice grapevines and [even] plant very expensive ones that come from other countries.
11 Hagi ana wainima hankresaza knazupa, ana nanteranke'za ana wainimo'a agata rehakrufeno marerino amosrea ahentegahianagi, tusi'a atama kri knama esigeno'a, ana wainimo'a raga rente so'ea osugahie. Na'ankure zamagra haviza hugahaze.
[But] even if they sprout leaves on the day that you plant them, and even if they produce blossoms on that same morning, at harvest time, there will not be any grapes for you to pick. All that you will get is a lot of agony/misery.
12 Hanki kokankoka kumategati sondia vahe'ma emeri atru nehaza vahe'mo'za zamagasasama neraza agasasankemo'a, tiramo'ma agasasama neriankna nehie!
Listen! [The armies of] many nations will roar like the sea roars. It will sound like the noise of crashing waves.
13 Hagi rama'a tiramo sasa huno zamagasasama neriaza hu'za krafa hugahazanagi, hankavetino zamarotago hanige'za, ete rukrahe hu'za e'narega vugahaze. Ana nehu'za agonafima zaho'mo vemagu vemagu huno raisi hona'ama eri hareno viankna huno zamarotgo hanige'za fregahaze.
But even though their loud roaring will be like the sound of crashing waves, when Yahweh rebukes them, they will run far away. They will flee like [SIM] chaff on the hills scatters when the wind [blows], like tumbleweeds scatter when a windstorm blows.
14 Hanki kinagama sege'za veamo'za tusi zamagogogu hu'naze. Hianagi nanterana ha' vahera omanizageno, ana korozana omane'ne. Hagi ha'ma hurante'za maka zantima eri'naza vahera Anumzamo'a e'inahu huno mizana zamigahie.
And, even though you people of Israel will be terrified, in the morning [your enemies] will all be gone/dead. That is what will happen to those who invade our land and [then] steal our possessions.
