1 Utuu Gooftaan iddoo aarsaa bira dhaabatuu nan arge; innis akkana jedhe: “Akka buusaawwan balbalaa raafamaniif fiixee utubaa dhaʼi. Mataa nama hundaa irratti gad isaan harcaasi; warra hafe immoo anatu goraadeedhaan fixa. Tokkoon isaanii iyyuu baqatanii hin baʼan; isaan keessaa namni tokko iyyuu hin miliqu.
I have seen the Lord standing by the altar, and He says, “Strike the knob, and the thresholds shake, And cut them off by the head—all of them, And I slay their posterity with a sword, None that flee of them flee away, Nor a fugitive of them escape.
2 Yoo isaan boolla qilee qotatan iyyuu harki koo achii isaan fuudha. Yoo isaan samiitti ol baʼan iyyuu ani achii gad isaan nan buusa. (Sheol h7585)
If they dig through into Sheol, From there My hand takes them, And if they go up [to] the heavens, From there I cause them to come down. (Sheol h7585)
3 Yoo isaan fiixee Qarmeloos irra dhokatan iyyuu, ani achii adamsee qabee gad isaan nan fida. Yoo isaan galaana jala na dhokatan iyyuu, ani akka inni achitti isaan idduuf bofa itti nan ajaja.
And if they are hid in the top of Carmel, From there I search out, and have taken them, And if they are hid from My eyes in the bottom of the sea, From there I command the serpent, And it has bitten them.
4 Yoo diinonni isaanii boojiʼanii isaan fudhatan, achitti goraadee isaan fixxu itti nan ajaja. “Ani waan gaariidhaaf utuu hin taʼin waan hamaadhaaf ija koo isaan irra nan buusa.”
And if they go into captivity before their enemies, From there I command the sword, And it has slain them, And I have set My eye on them for evil, And not for good.”
5 Gooftaan, Waaqayyo Waan Hunda Dandaʼu lafa ni tuqa; isheenis ni baqxi; wanni ishee irra jiraatu hundinuu ni booʼa; biyyattiin guutuun akka laga Abbayyaa ol kaati; ergasiis akka laga Gibxi gad galti;

6 inni darbii isaa ol dheeraa samii irratti ijaarratee hundee isaa lafa irra dhaabbatu, inni bishaanota galaanaa waamee fuula lafaa irratti gad roobsu sun maqaan isaa Waaqayyo.

7 “Isin Israaʼeloonni anaaf akkuma saba Itoophiyaa mitii?” jedha Waaqayyo. “Ani Israaʼeloota biyya Gibxiitii, Filisxeemota Kaftoorii, warra Sooriyaa immoo Qiirii baasee hin fidnee?
“Are you not as sons of Cushim to Me, O sons of Israel?” A declaration of YHWH. “Did I not bring Israel up out of the land of Egypt? And the Philistines from Caphtor, and Aram from Kir?
8 “Dhugumaan iji Waaqayyo Gooftaa mootummaa cubbamaa irra jira. Ani fuula lafaa irraa isa nan balleessa; taʼus ani guutumaan guutuutti mana Yaaqoob hin balleessu” jedha Waaqayyo.
Behold, [the] eyes of Lord YHWH [are] on the sinful kingdom, And I have destroyed it from off the face of the ground, Only, I do not utterly destroy the house of Jacob,” A declaration of YHWH.
9 “Ani ajaja kennee akkuma midhaan gingilchaadhaan gingilfamee iji tokko iyyuu lafa hin buune sana saboota hunda gidduutti mana Israaʼel nan gingilcha.
“For behold, I am commanding, And I have shaken among all the nations the house of Israel, As [one] shakes with a sieve, And there does not fall a grain [to] the earth.
10 Cubbamoonni saba koo gidduu jiraatan hundi Warri, ‘Balaan nu hin argatu yookaan nutti hin dhufu’ jedhan hundi goraadeedhaan dhumu.
By sword all sinners of My people die, Who are saying, Evil does not overtake, or go before, For our sakes.

So that they possess the remnant of Edom, And all the nations on whom My Name is called,” A declaration of YHWH—the doer of this.
13 Waaqayyo akkana jedha; “Kunoo, barri itti namni haamu tokko isa qotu qaqqabu, “namni wayinii dhaabu immoo isa cuunfu qaqqabu tokko ni dhufa; Daadhiin wayinii haaraan tulluuwwan irraa ni coccopha; gaarran hunda keessaas ni yaaʼa.
“Behold, days are coming,” A declaration of YHWH, “And the plowman has come near to the reaper, And the treader of grapes to the scatterer of seed, And the mountains have dropped juice, And all the hills melt.
14 Ani saba koo Israaʼelin boojuudhaa nan deebisa. “Isaanis magaalaawwan diigaman deebisanii ijaaranii keessa ni jiraatu. Isaan wayinii dhaabanii, daadhii wayinii isaanii ni dhugu; isaan biqiltuu dhaabbatanii ija isaa ni nyaatu.
And I have turned back [to] the captivity of My people Israel, And they have built desolate cities, and inhabited, And have planted vineyards, and drunk their wine, And made gardens, and eaten their fruit.
15 Ani Israaʼeloota biyya ofii isaanii keessa nan dhaaba; isaan biyya ani isaaniif kenne keessaa lammata hin buqqifaman,” jedha Waaqayyo Waaqni kee.
And I have planted them on their own ground, And they are not plucked up anymore from off their own ground, That I have given to them,” said your God YHWH!
