Amoos 9

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 saw the Lord standing beside the altar, and he said, “Strike the tops of the pillars so that the foundations will shake. Break them in pieces on all of their heads, and I will kill the last of them with the sword. Not one of them will get away, not one of them will 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)

Though they dig into Sheol, there my hand will take them. Though they climb up to heaven, there I will bring them 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.

Though they hide on the top of Carmel, there I will search and take them. Though they are hidden from my sight in the bottom of the sea, there will I give orders to the serpent, and it will bite 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.”

Though they go into captivity, driven by their enemies before them, there will I give orders to the sword, and it will kill them. I will keep my eyes on them for harm 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;

The Lord Yahweh of hosts touches the land and it melts; all who live in it mourn; all of it will rise up like the River, and sink again like the river of Egypt.

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.

It is he who builds his steps in the heavens, and has established his vault over the earth. He calls for the waters of the sea, and pours them out on the surface of the earth, Yahweh is his name.

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 like the people of Cush to me, people of Israel? —this is Yahweh's declaration. Did I not bring up Israel out of the land of Egypt, the Philistines from Crete, and the Arameans 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.

Look, the eyes of the Lord Yahweh are on the sinful kingdom, and I will destroy it from the face of the earth, except that I will not totally destroy the house of Jacob —this is Yahweh's declaration.

9 “Ani ajaja kennee akkuma midhaan gingilchaadhaan gingilfamee iji tokko iyyuu lafa hin buune sana saboota hunda gidduutti mana Israaʼel nan gingilcha.

Look, I will give a command, and I will shake the house of Israel among all the nations, as one shakes grain in a sieve, so that not the smallest stone will fall to the ground.

10 Cubbamoonni saba koo gidduu jiraatan hundi Warri, ‘Balaan nu hin argatu yookaan nutti hin dhufu’ jedhan hundi goraadeedhaan dhumu.

All the sinners of my people will die by the sword, those who say, 'Disaster will not overtake or meet us.'

11 “Ani bara sana keessa dunkaana Daawit “Kan kufe sana deebisee nan dhaaba. Kan tarsaʼes walitti nan supha; diigamaa isaa iddootti deebisee akka duraatti nan ijaara;

In that day I will raise up the tent of David that has fallen, and close up its breaches. I will raise up its ruins, and rebuild it as in the days of old,

12 kunis akka isaan hambaa Edoomii fi saboota maqaa kootiin waamaman hunda dhaalaniif” jedha Waaqayyo, inni waan kana hojjetu.

That they may possess the remnant of Edom, and all the nations that are called by my name —this is Yahweh's declaration—he does 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.

Look, the days will come—this is Yahweh's declaration— when the plowman will overtake the reaper, and the treader of grapes will overtake him who plants seed. The mountains will drip sweet wine, and all the hills will flow with it.

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.

I will bring back from captivity my people Israel. They will build the ruined cities and inhabit them, they will plant vineyards and drink their wine, and they will make gardens and eat their fruit.

15 Ani Israaʼeloota biyya ofii isaanii keessa nan dhaaba; isaan biyya ani isaaniif kenne keessaa lammata hin buqqifaman,” jedha Waaqayyo Waaqni kee.

I will plant them upon their land, and they will never again be uprooted from the land that I have given them,” says Yahweh your God.
