< Amoos 5 >

1 Yaa mana Israaʼel dubbii kana, faaruu booʼichaa kan ani waaʼee keessaniif booʼu kana dhagaʼaa:
Hear the word this which I [am] lifting up on you a lamentation O house of Israel.
2 “Durbi qulqullittiin Israaʼel kufteerti; isheen lammata hin kaatu; biyyuma ishee keessatti gatamtee nama ol ishee qabu tokko illee dhabde.”
She has fallen not she will repeat to rise [the] virgin of Israel she has been abandoned on own land her there not [is one who] raises up her.
3 Waaqayyo Gooftaan akkana jedha: “Magaalaa loltoota kuma tokko Israaʼeliif bobbaafteef dhibba tokko qofatu hafa; magaalaa loltoota dhibba tokko bobbaafteef kudhan qofatu hafa.”
For thus he says [the] Lord Yahweh the city which goes out a thousand it will have left a hundred and which goes out a hundred it will have left ten of [the] house of Israel.
4 Waaqayyo mana Israaʼeliin akkana jedha: “Na barbaaddadhaatii jiraadhaa;
For thus he says Yahweh to [the] house of Israel seek me and live.
5 Beetʼeelin hin barbaaddatinaa; Gilgaal hin dhaqinaa; Bersheebaattis hin ceʼinaa. Gilgaal dhugumaan ni boojiʼamti; Beetʼeelis ni dhabamti.”
And may not you seek Beth-el and Gilgal not you must go and Beer Sheba not you must pass over for Gilgal certainly it will go into exile and Beth-el it will become trouble.
6 Waaqayyoon barbaaddadhaatii jiraadhaa; yoo kanaa achii inni akkuma ibiddaa mana Yoosef keessa baʼee haxaaʼaa; ibiddi sun ishee guba; Beetʼeelis nama irraa dhaamsu tokko iyyuu hin qabaattu.
Seek Yahweh and live lest he should rush like fire [the] house of Joseph and it will consume and not [one who] extinguishes [it] [will belong] to Beth-el.
7 Isin warra murtii qajeelaa hadhaatti geeddartanii qajeelummaas lafatti harcaaftanii dha.
O those [who] turn into wormwood justice and righteousness to the ground they thrust down.
8 Inni urjiiwwan Torbii fi urjiiwwan Sadee uume, kan dukkana bariitti geeddaru, inni guyyaa dukkaneessee halkan godhu, kan galaana keessaa bishaan ol waamee fuula lafa gogaa irratti dhangalaasu maqaan isaa Waaqayyoo dha.
[the] maker of Pleiades and Orion and [the one who] turns into morning deep darkness and day night he makes dark the [one who] summons [the] waters of the sea and he poured out them on [the] surface of the earth [is] Yahweh name his.
9 Inni daʼoo jabaatti badiisa tasaa fida; magaalaa dallaa jabaa qabdus ni barbadeessa.
The [who] causes to flash devastation on [the] strong and devastation on a fortress it will come.
10 Isaan nama karra irratti nama ifatu ni jibbu; kan dhugaa dubbatus ni balfu.
They hate in the gate [one who] reproves and [one who] speaks blameless they abhor.
11 Isin hiyyeeyyii dhidhiittanii akka isaan midhaan isinii kennan dirqisiiftu. Kanaafuu isin manneen dhagaa yoo ijaarrattan iyyuu manneen sana keessa hin jiraattan; isin iddoowwan qotiisaa gaarii keessa wayinii yoo dhaabbattan iyyuu daadhii wayinii isaanii hin dhugdan.
Therefore because trample you on [the] poor and a portion of grain you take from him houses of hewn [stone] you have built and not you will dwell in them vineyards of delight you have planted and not you will drink wine their.
12 Balleessaan keessan hammam akka baayʼatuu fi cubbuun keessanis hammam guddaa akka taʼe nan beekaatii. Isaan qajeeltota hacuucanii mattaʼaa irraa fudhatu; hiyyeeyyiis mana murtii keessatti murtii qajeelaa dhowwatu.
For I know many transgressions your and numerous sins your O opposers of [the] righteous O takers of ransom and needy [people] in the gate they turn aside.
13 Kanaafuu namni qalbeeffataan yeroo akkasiitti afaan qabata; barri kun bara hamaadhaatii.
Therefore the prudent [person] at the time that he will be silent for [is] a time evil it.
14 Akka lubbuudhaan jiraattaniif waan hamaa dhiisaatii waan gaarii barbaadaa. Yoos akkuma isin jettan sana Waaqayyo Waaqni Waan Hunda Dandaʼu isin wajjin taʼa.
Seek good and may not [it be] evil so that you will live and it may be thus Yahweh God of hosts [will be] with you just as you have said.
15 Waan hamaa jibbaa; waan gaarii jaalladhaa; mana murtii keessatti murtii qajeelaa jabeessaa; Waaqayyo Waaqni Waan Hunda Dandaʼu tarii hambaa Yoosefiif garaa laafa taʼaatii.
Hate evil and love good and set up in the gate justice perhaps he will show favor to Yahweh God of hosts [the] remnant of Joseph.
16 Kanaafuu Gooftaan, Waaqayyo Waaqni Waan Hunda Dandaʼu akkana jedha: “Daandii hunda irra booʼicha, oobdii uummataa hunda irra immoo iyya dhiphinaatu jira. Qonnaan bultoonni akka booʼaniif, warri booʼan immoo akka wawwaataniif ni waamamu.
Therefore thus he says Yahweh God of hosts [the] Lord [will be] in all [the] open places wailing and in all [the] streets people will say alas! alas! and people will call a farmer to mourning and wailing to [those who] know lamentation.
17 Ani gidduu keessan waanan darbuuf iddoo dhaabaa wayinii hunda keessaa booʼichatu taʼa” jedha Waaqayyo.
And [will be] in all [the] vineyards wailing for I will pass in midst your he says Yahweh.
18 Isin warra guyyaa Waaqayyoo arguu hawwitaniif wayyoo! Isin maaliif guyyaa Waaqayyoo arguu hawwitu! Guyyaan sun dukkana malee ifa hin taʼuutii.
Woe to! those [who] desire [the] day of Yahweh why? this to you [the] day of Yahweh it [will be] darkness and not light.
19 Wanni kun akkuma nama leenca jalaa baʼee afaan amaaketaa buʼu tokkoo ti; yookaan akka nama mana isaa seenee harka isaa keenyan manaa irra kaaʼatee bofti isa idde tokkoo ti.
Just as he flees someone from before the lion and it meets him the bear and he goes the house and he leans hand his on the wall and it bites him the snake.
20 Guyyaan Waaqayyoo ifa utuu hin taʼin dukkana mitii? Dukkana hamaa ifa tokko illee of keessaa hin qabne mitii?
¿ Not [be] darkness [will] [the] day of Yahweh and not light and gloomy and not brightness [will belong] to it.
21 “Ani ayyaana amantaa keessanii nan jibba; nan tuffadhas; waldaa keessanittis hin gammadu.
I hate I reject feasts your and not I delight in assemblies your.
22 Utuu isin aarsaa gubamuu fi kennaa midhaanii naaf fiddanii iyyuu ani jaalladhee isin irraa hin fudhadhu. Utuu isin aarsaa nagaa filatamaa naaf fiddanii iyyuu ani homaattuu isa hin lakkaaʼu.
That except you will offer up to me burnt offerings and grain offerings your not I will accept [them] and [the] peace offering of fatlings your not I will pay attention to.
23 Waca faarfannaa keessanii asii balleessaa! Ani muuziiqaa baganaa keessanii hin dhaggeeffadhu.
Remove from with me [the] noise of songs your and [the] music of lyres your not I will listen to.
24 Garuu murtiin qajeelaan akkuma lagaa, qajeelummaanis akkuma burqaa hin gognee haa yaaʼu!
And it may roll on like water justice and righteousness like a wadi ever-flowing.
25 “Yaa mana Israaʼel isin waggaa afurtama gammoojjii keessatti takkumaa aarsaa fi kennaa naaf fiddaniirtuu?
¿ Sacrifices and grain offering[s] did you bring near to me in the wilderness forty year[s] O house of Israel.
26 Isin waan harkuma keessaniin tolfattan jechuunis galma waaqeffannaa mootii keessanii, utubaa waaqa keessan tolfamaatii fi fakkii urjii waaqa keessanii ol fuutaniirtu.
And you will lift up Sikkuth king your and Kiyyun images your [the] star of gods your which you made for yourselves.
27 Kanaafuu ani akka isin boojiʼamtaniif, Damaasqoodhaan gamatti isinan erga” jedha Waaqayyo inni maqaan isaa Waaqa Waan Hunda Dandaʼu taʼe sun.
And I will send into exile you from beyond Damascus he says [is] Yahweh God of hosts name his.
