Daaniʼel 9
1 Bara Daariyoos ilma Ahashweroos namicha Meedee kan mootummaa Kaldootaa irratti bulchaa taasifame sanaa keessa waggaa tokkoffaatti
In the first year of Darius the son of Ahasuerus, of the seed of the Medes, who was made king over the realm of the Chaldeans,
2 bara mootummaa isaa keessa waggaa tokkoffaatti ani Daaniʼel dubbii Waaqayyoo kan Ermiyaas raajichaaf kenname irraa akka Yerusaalem waggaa torbaatamaaf ontee turtu kitaabota qulqulluu irraa nan hubadhe.
in the first year of his reign, I Daniel understood by the books that the number of the years, whereof the word of Jehovah came to Jeremiah the prophet, for the accomplishment of the desolations of Jerusalem, was seventy years.
3 Kanaafuu ani deebii barbaadee kadhannaa fi waammataan, soomaan, wayyaa gaddaa uffachuudhaa fi daaraa keessa taaʼuudhaan gara Waaqayyoo Gooftaatti nan deebiʼe.
And I set my face unto the Lord God, to seek by prayer and supplications, with fasting, and sackcloth, and ashes;
4 Anis Waaqayyo Waaqa kootti kadhannaa dhiʼeessee akkana jedheen cubbuu saba kootii himadhe: “Yaa Gooftaa, Waaqa guddaa fi akka malee sodaachisaa kan warra si jaallatanii ajaja kee eegan hundaaf kakuu jaalala keetii eegdu,
and I prayed unto Jehovah my God, and made my confession, and said, Alas Lord! the great and terrible God, keeping covenant and loving-kindness with them that love him, and that keep his commandments:
5 nu cubbuu hojjenneerra; balleessineerras. Nu jalʼoota turre; fincilleerras; ajajaa fi seera kee irraa garagalleerra.
we have sinned, and have committed iniquity, and have done wickedly, and have rebelled, even turning aside from thy commandments and from thine ordinances.
6 Nu tajaajiltoota kee raajota warra maqaa keetiin mootota keenyatti, ilmaan mootota keenyaatti, abbootii keenyaa fi saba lafaa hundatti dubbatan sana hin dhaggeeffanne.
And we have not hearkened unto thy servants the prophets, who spoke in thy name to our kings, our princes, and our fathers, and to all the people of the land.
7 “Yaa Gooftaa, ati qajeelaa dha; garuu nu namoonni Yihuudaa, sabni Yerusaalemii fi Israaʼel kanneen ati sababii amanamummaa dhabuu keenyaatiin biyyoota dhiʼoo fi fagoo keessa bittinneessite hundi harʼa qaaniidhaan haguugamneerra.
Thine, O Lord, is the righteousness, but unto us confusion of face, as at this day, to the men of Judah, and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and unto all Israel, that are near, and that are far off, in all the countries whither thou hast driven them, because of their unfaithfulness in which they have been unfaithful against thee.
8 Yaa Waaqayyo nuu fi mootonni keenya, ilmaan moototaatii fi abbootiin keenya waan cubbuu sitti hojjenneef qaaniidhaan haguugamneerra.
O Lord, unto us is confusion of face, to our kings, to our princes, and to our fathers, because we have sinned against thee.
9 Yoo nu isatti fincillee jiraanne iyyuu Waaqni keenya Gooftichi araara qabeessa; dhiifamas namaaf godha;
With the Lord our God are mercies and pardons, for we have rebelled against him;
10 nu Waaqayyo Waaqa keenyaaf hin ajajamne yookaan seera isaa kan inni karaa tajaajiltoota isaa raajotaatiin nuuf kenne sana hin eegne.
and we have not hearkened unto the voice of Jehovah our God, to walk in his laws, which he set before us through his servants the prophets.
11 Israaʼeloonni hundinuu siif ajajamuu diduudhaan seera kee cabsaniiru; sirraa garagalaniirus. “Kanaafuu sababii nu cubbuu sitti hojjenneef abaarsaa fi kakuun Seera Musee garbicha Waaqaa sanaa keessatti barreeffame nurratti dhangalaʼe.
And all Israel have transgressed thy law, even turning aside so as not to listen unto thy voice. And the curse hath been poured out upon us, and the oath that is written in the law of Moses the servant of God: for we have sinned against him.
12 Ati balaa guddaa nutti fiduudhaan dubbii nuu fi bulchitoota keenya irratti dubbatame sana raawwatteerta. Wanni akka waan Yerusaalem irratti taʼe sanaa takkumaa guutummaa samiitii gaditti taʼee hin beeku.
And he hath performed his words, which he spoke against us, and against our judges that judged us, by bringing upon us a great evil; so that there hath not been done under the whole heaven as hath been done upon Jerusalem.
13 Akkuma Seera Musee keessatti barreeffametti balaan kun hundi nutti dhufeera; taʼu iyyuu nu qalbii jijjiirrannee dhugaa duukaa buʼuudhaan Waaqayyo Waaqa keenya irraa araara hin barbaanne.
As it is written in the law of Moses, all this evil is come upon us; yet we besought not Jehovah our God, that we might turn from our iniquities, and understand thy truth.
14 Waaqayyo balaa nutti fiduu irraa duubatti hin deebine; Waaqayyo Waaqni keenya waan hojjetu hundaan qajeelaadhaatii; nu garuu isaaf hin ajajamne.
And Jehovah hath watched over the evil, and brought it upon us; for Jehovah our God is righteous in all his works which he hath done; and we have not hearkened unto his voice.
15 “Egaa amma yaa Waaqa keenya Gooftaa, kan irree jabaadhaan saba kee biyya Gibxi baaftee akka maqaan kee akkuma harʼa jiru kana beekamu goote, nu cubbuu hojjenneerra; balleessineerras.
— And now, O Lord our God, who broughtest thy people forth out of the land of Egypt with a strong hand, and hast made thee a name, as it is this day, — we have sinned, we have done wickedly.
16 Yaa Gooftaa, akkuma hojii kee qajeelaa sana hundaatti Yerusaalem magaalaa keetii fi gaara kee qulqulluu irraa aarii fi dheekkamsa kee deebisi. Cubbuun keenyaa fi balleessaan abbootii keenyaa namoota naannoo keenya jiraatan hunda biratti akka Yerusaalemii fi sabni kee waan kolfaa taʼan godheera.
Lord, according to all thy righteousnesses, I beseech thee, let thine anger and thy fury be turned away from thy city Jerusalem, thy holy mountain; for because of our sins, and because of the iniquities of our fathers, Jerusalem and thy people [are become] a reproach to all round about us.
17 “Egaa yaa Waaqa keenya, kadhannaa fi waammata garbicha keetii dhagaʼi. Yaa Gooftaa, ulfina keetiif jedhiitii fuula kee gara iddoo kee qulqulluu one sanaatti deebisi.
And now, our God, hearken to the prayer of thy servant, and to his supplications, and cause thy face to shine upon thy sanctuary that is desolate, for the Lord's sake.
18 Yaa Waaqa ko, gurra itti qabii dhagaʼi; ija kee banadhuutii badii keenyaa fi magaalaa Maqaan kee ittiin waamame sana ilaali. Nu utuu waaʼee qajeelummaa keenyaatiif hin taʼin sababii araara kee guddaa sanaatiif si kadhanna.
Incline thine ear, O my God, and hear; open thine eyes and behold our desolations, and the city that is called by thy name: for we do not present our supplications before thee because of our righteousnesses, but because of thy manifold mercies.
19 Yaa Gooftaa dhaggeeffadhu! Yaa Gooftaa dhiifama nuu godhi! Yaa Gooftaa dhagaʼiitii waa hojjedhu! Yaa Waaqa ko, sababii magaalaan keetii fi sabni kee Maqaa keetiin waamamuuf ati hin turin.”
Lord, hear! Lord, forgive! Lord, hearken and do! defer not, for thine own sake, O my God! for thy city and thy people are called by thy name.
20 Utuu ani dubbichaa fi kadhachaa, cubbuu kootii fi cubbuu saba koo Israaʼel himachaa, tulluu isaa qulqulluufis Waaqayyo Waaqa koo gaafachaa jiruu,
And whilst I was speaking, and praying, and confessing my sin and the sin of my people Israel, and presenting my supplication before Jehovah my God for the holy mountain of my God;
21 utuu ani amma illee kadhannaa irra jiruu, Gabriʼeel namichi ani mulʼata koo duraa keessatti arge sun, yeroo aarsaa galgalaatti ariitiidhaan barrisaa gara koo dhufe.
whilst I was yet speaking in prayer, the man Gabriel, whom I had seen in the vision at the beginning, flying swiftly, touched me about the time of the evening oblation.
22 Innis akkana jedhee na barsiise; akkanas naan jedhe; “Yaa Daaniʼel ani amma ogummaa fi hubannaa siif kennuuf dhufeera.
And he informed [me], and talked with me, and said, Daniel, I am now come forth to make thee skilful of understanding.
23 Akkuma ati Waaqa kadhachuu jalqabdeen deebiin ani sitti himuuf dhufe kun siif kenname; ati akka malee jaalatamaadhaatii. Kanaafuu ergaa kana qalbeeffadhuutii mulʼata sana hubadhu:
At the beginning of thy supplications the word went forth, and I am come to declare [it]; for thou art one greatly beloved. Therefore consider the word, and have understanding in the vision:
24 “Dogoggora hambisuuf, cubbuu balleessuuf, araara yakkaa buusuuf, qajeelummaa bara baraa fiduuf, mulʼataa fi raajii chaappaadhaan cufuuf, Iddoo Iddoo Hunda Caalaa Qulqulluu taʼe sana dibuuf saba keetii fi magaalattii qulqulluu keetiif ‘torban’ torbaatamni labsameera.
Seventy weeks are apportioned out upon thy people and upon thy holy city, to close the transgression, and to make an end of sins, and to make expiation for iniquity, and to bring in the righteousness of the ages, and to seal the vision and prophet, and to anoint the holy of holies.
25 “Waan kana beeki; hubadhus: Gaafa labsiin Yerusaalemin haaromsuu fi deebisanii ijaaruuf labsame kun baʼee jalqabee hamma Masiihichi, Bulchaan dhufutti ‘torban’ torbaatamaa fi torban jaatamii lama taʼa. Isheen daandiiwwanii fi dallaa wajjin ni haaromfamti; garuu wanni kun yeroo rakkinaa keessa taʼa.
Know therefore and understand: From the going forth of the word to restore and to build Jerusalem unto Messiah, the Prince, are seven weeks, and sixty-two weeks. The street and the moat shall be built again, even in troublous times.
26 ‘Torban’ jaatamii lama booddee Masiihichi ni ajjeefama; wanni tokko iyyuu isaaf hin hafu. Namoonni bulchaa dhufuuf jiru tokkoo magaalaa sanaa fi iddoo qulqulluu ni barbadeessu. Dhumnis akkuma lolaatti dhufa: Waraanni hamma dhumaatti itti fufa; badiisnis labsameera.
And after the sixty-two weeks shall Messiah be cut off, and shall have nothing; and the people of the prince that shall come shall destroy the city and the sanctuary; and the end thereof shall be with an overflow, and unto the end, war, — the desolations determined.
27 Bulchaan kunis ‘Torban’ tokkoof namoota baayʼee wajjin kakuu godhata; walakkaa ‘Torban’ sanaatti aarsaa fi kennaan akka hafu godha. Innis hamma wanni labsame sun isa irratti dhangalaʼutti waan xuraaʼaa badiisa fidu mana qulqullummaa gubbaa ni dhaaba.”
And he shall confirm a covenant with the many [for] one week; and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, and because of the protection of abominations [there shall be] a desolator, even until that the consumption and what is determined shall be poured out upon the desolate.
