7 Isaan akkuma biyyoo lafaatti mataa hiyyeeyyii irra ijaajjanii cunqurfamaas murtii qajeelaa dhowwatan. Abbaa fi ilmi durba tokkotti galanii akkasiin maqaa koo qulqulluu xureessan.

And I raise of your sons for prophets, And of your choice ones for Nazarites, Is this not true, O sons of Israel?” A declaration of YHWH.

Behold, I am pressing you under, As the full cart presses a sheaf for itself.
14 Saffisaan hin miliqu; namoonni jajjaboon humna isaanii hin jabeeffatan; loltuunis lubbuu isaa hin oolfatu.
And refuge has perished from the swift, And the strong does not strengthens his power, And the mighty does not deliver his soul.

And the handler of the bow does not stand, And the swift does not deliver [himself] with his feet, And the rider of the horse does not deliver his soul.

And the courageous of heart among the mighty, Flees naked in that day,” A declaration of YHWH!
