Amoos 2
1 Waaqayyo akkana jedha: “Ani cubbuu Moʼaab sadiif, afuriifis dheekkamsa koo duubatti hin deebisu. Sababii inni lafee mootii Edoom gubee daaraa godheef,
Thus, saith Yahweh, Because of three transgressions of Moab, and because of four, will I not turn it back, —Because he burned the bones of the King of Edom to lime,
2 ani ibidda daʼannoo Keriiyooti barbadeessu tokko Moʼaabitti nan erga. Moʼaab iyya waraanaatii fi sagalee malakataatiin duʼa.
Therefore will I send a fire into Moab, which shall devour the palaces of Kerioth—and Moab, shall die with tumult, with war- cry, with the sound of a horn;
3 Ani bulchaa ishee ajjeesee qondaaltota ishee hundas isa wajjinin fixa” jedha Waaqayyo.
And I will cut off the judge out of her midst, and, all her rulers, will I slay with him, saith Yahweh.
4 Waaqayyo akkana jedha: “Ani cubbuu Yihuudaa sadiif, afuriifis dheekkamsa koo duubatti hin deebisu. Sababii isaan seera Waaqayyoo didanii ajaja isaas hin eeginiif, sababii isaan waaqota sobaa, waaqota abbootiin isaanii duukaa buʼan sanaan karaa irraa jalʼataniif,
Thus, saith Yahweh, Because of three transgressions of Judah, and because of four, will I not turn it back, —Because they have rejected the law of Yahweh, and, his statutes, have not kept, but their falsehoods, have led them astray, after the which their fathers, did walk,
5 ani ibidda daʼannoo Yerusaalem barbadeessu tokko Yihuudaatti nan erga.”
Therefore will I send a fire upon Judah, —which shall devour the palaces of Jerusalem.
6 Waaqayyo akkana jedha: “Ani cubbuu Israaʼel sadiif, afuriifis dheekkamsa koo duubatti hin deebisu. Isaan qajeeltota meetiitti, rakkattoota immoo kophee cimdii tokkotti gurguratan.
Thus, saith Yahweh, Because of three transgressions of Israel, and because of four, will I not turn it back, —Because they have sold—for silver—the righteous, and the needy—for a pair of shoes:
7 Isaan akkuma biyyoo lafaatti mataa hiyyeeyyii irra ijaajjanii cunqurfamaas murtii qajeelaa dhowwatan. Abbaa fi ilmi durba tokkotti galanii akkasiin maqaa koo qulqulluu xureessan.
Who strive to bring the dust of the earth on the head of the poor, and, the way of the oppressed, they pervert, —Yea, a man and his own father, go in unto the maid, to profane my holy Name!
8 Isaan uffata qabdiidhaan nama irraa fudhatan irra iddoo aarsaa hunda bira ciciisan. Isaan daadhii wayinii kan warra adabaman biraa dhufe, mana waaqa isaanii keessatti dhugu.
And, on pledged garments, they recline, beside every altar, —and, exacted wine, do they drink, in the house of their God.
9 “Inni akkuma birbirsaa dheeratee akka qilxuu jabaatu iyyuu, ani namicha Amoor sana fuula isaanii duratti galaafadheera. Ani gubbaadhaa ija isaa, jalaan immoo hidda isaa balleesseera.
Yet it was, I, who destroyed the Amorite, from before them, whose height was, like the height of cedars, and, strong, was he, like the oaks, —but I destroyed his fruit above, and his roots beneath.
10 “Ani biyya Amoorotaa isiniif kennuuf jedhee, biyya Gibxiitii isin baasee waggaa afurtama gammoojjii keessa isinan geggeesse.
And it was, I, who brought you up out of the land of Egypt, —and led you in the desert, forty years, to take possession of the land of the Amorites;
11 “Akkasumas ani ilmaan keessan gidduudhaa raajota, dargaggoota keessan gidduudhaa immoo Naaziroota kaaseera. Yaa saba Israaʼel, wanni kun dhuguma mitii?” jedha Waaqayyo.
And I raised up, of your sons, for prophets, and, of your young men, for Nazirites, —Was it not even so, ye sons of Israel? Demandeth Yahweh;
12 “Isin garuu Naaziroota daadhii wayinii obaaftanii akka raajonnis raajii hin dubbanne ajajjan.
And yet ye caused the Nazirites to drink wine, —and, on the prophet, laid ye command, saying, Ye shall not prophesy!
13 “Ani akkuma gaariin yommuu midhaaniin guutamu caccabu sana, amma isinan caccabsa.
Lo! I, am pressed under you, —as a full cart is pressed by its sheaves,
14 Saffisaan hin miliqu; namoonni jajjaboon humna isaanii hin jabeeffatan; loltuunis lubbuu isaa hin oolfatu.
Therefore shall flight, perish, from the swift, and, the mighty, shall not invigorate his strength, —nor shall, the hero, escape with his life;
15 Abbaan xiyyaa jabaatee dhaabachuu hin dandaʼu; loltuun saffisaan fiigee jalaa hin baʼu; abbaan fardaas lubbuu isaa oolfachuu hin dandaʼu.
Nor, he that handleth the bow, make a stand, and, the swift on his feet, shall not escape, —nor, he that rideth on a horse, escape with his life:
16 Loltoonni akka malee jajjaboon iyyuu gaafas qullaa isaanii baqatu” jedha Waaqayyo.
Nay, he that is stout in his heart, among heroes, naked, shall flee, in that day, Declareth Yahweh.
