< Hisqiʼeel 12 >

1 Ergasii dubbiin Waaqayyoo akkana jedhee gara koo dhufe:
And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
2 “Yaa ilma namaa, ati uummata fincilaa gidduu jiraatta. Isaan arguudhaaf ija qabu; garuu hin argan; dhagaʼuudhaafis gurra qabu; garuu hin dhagaʼan; isaan uummata fincilaadhaatii.
Son of man, thou dwellest in the midst of a provoking house: who have eyes to see, and see not: and ears to hear, and hear not: for they are a provoking house.
3 “Kanaafuu yaa ilma namaa, utuma isaan arganuu guyyaa adiidhaan waan qabdu qopheeffadhuutii boojiʼamuuf iddoo jirtuu baʼiitii iddoo biraa deemi. Isaan mana fincilaa taʼani iyyuu tarii ni hubatu taʼa.
Thou, therefore, O son of man, prepare thee all necessaries for removing, and remove by day in their sight: and thou shalt remove out of thy place to another place in their sight, if so be they will regard it: for they are a provoking house.
4 Miʼa kee kan boojiʼamuuf qopheeffatte sana utuma isaan arganuu guyyaa adiidhaan baafadhu. Utuma isaan arganuus galgalaan akkuma warra boojiʼamuuf deemaniitti baʼii deemi.
And thou shalt bring forth thy furniture as the furniture of one that is removing by day in their sight: and thou shalt go forth in the evening in their presence, as one goeth forth that removeth his dwelling.
5 Utuma isaan arganuus dallaa uriitii miʼa kee achi keessaan baafadhu.
Dig thee a way through the wall before their eyes: and thou shalt go forth through it.
6 Utuma isaan arganuus dimimmisa galgalaa keessa miʼa sana ol fuudhii gatiittii keetti baadhuu baʼi. Ati akka biyyattii hin argineef fuula kee haguuggadhu; ani mana Israaʼeliif mallattoo si godheeraatii.”
In their sight thou shalt be carried out upon men’s shoulders, thou shalt be carried out in the dark: thou shalt cover thy face, and shalt not see the ground: for I have set thee for a sign of things to come to the house of Israel.
7 Anis akkuman ajajame nan godhe. Miʼa koos boojuuf qopheeffadhee guyyaa adiidhaan baafadhe. Galgalaanis dallaa sana harkuma kootiin nan ure. Utuma isaan arganuus miʼa koo gatiittii irratti baadhadhee dimimmisaan nan baʼe.
I did therefore as he had commanded me: I brought forth my goods by day, as the goods of one that removeth: and in the evening I digged through the wall with my hand: and I went forth in the dark, and was carried on men’s shoulders in their sight.
8 Guyyaa itti aanu ganamas dubbiin Waaqayyoo akkana jedhee gara koo dhufe:
And the word of the Lord came to me in the morning, saying:
9 “Yaa ilma namaa, manni Israaʼel fincilaan sun, ‘Ati maal gochaa jirta?’ jedhee si hin gaafannee?
Son of man, hath not the house of Israel, the provoking house, said to thee: What art thou doing?
10 “Akkana isaaniin jedhi; ‘Waaqayyo Gooftaan akkana jedha: Raajiin kun waaʼee ilma mootii isa Yerusaalem keessa jiraatuu fi guutummaa mana Israaʼel kan achi jiraatuu ti.’
Say to them: Thus saith the Lord God: This burden concerneth my prince that is in Jerusalem, and all the house of Israel, that are among them.
11 Atis, ‘Ani mallattoo keessan’ isaaniin jedhi. “Wanni ani hojjedhe sun isaan irra ni gaʼa. Isaan boojiʼamanii ni fudhatamu.
Say: I am a sign of things to come to you: as I have done, so shall it be done to them: they shall be removed from their dwellings, and go into captivity.
12 “Ilmi mootii inni gidduu isaanii jiraatu miʼa isaa gatiittii isaatti baadhatee dimimmisaan ni deema; akka inni keessaan baʼuuf dallaan ni uramaaf. Akka biyyattii hin argineefis fuula isaa ni haguuggata.
And the prince that is in the midst of them, shall be carried on shoulders, he shall go forth in the dark: they shall dig through the wall to bring him out: his face shall be covered, that he may not see the ground with his eyes.
13 Ani kiyyoo koo nan diriirsaaf; innis kiyyoo kootiin ni qabama; ani gara Baabilon, biyya Kaldootaatti isa nan geessa; inni garuu biyyattii hin argu; achittis ni duʼa.
And I will spread my net over him, and he shall be taken in my net: and I will bring him into Babylon, into the land of the Chaldeans, and he shall not see it, and there he shall die.
14 Ani warra isa wajjin jiran hunda gargaartota isaatii fi loltoota isaa hunda bubbeetti nan bittinneessa; goraadee luqqifameenis isaan nan ariʼa.
And all that are about him, his guards, and his troops I will scatter into every wind: and I will draw out the sword after them.
15 “Isaan yommuu ani saboota gidduutti isaan bittinneessee biyyoota keessa isaan faffacaasutti, akka ani Waaqayyo taʼe ni beeku.
And they shall know that I am the Lord, when I shall have dispersed them among the nations, and scattered them in the countries.
16 Ani garuu akka isaan saboota itti geeffaman sana keessatti gochawwan isaanii jibbisiisoo hunda himataniif isaan keessaa namoota muraasa goraadee irraa, beelaa fi dhaʼicha irraa nan hambisa. Isaanis akka ani Waaqayyo taʼe ni beeku.”
And I will leave a few men of them from the sword, and from the famine, and from the pestilence: that they may declare all their wicked deeds among the nations whither they shall go: and they shall know that I am the Lord.
17 Ergasii dubbiin Waaqayyoo akkana jedhee gara koo dhufe:
And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
18 “Yaa ilma namaa, raafamuudhaan nyaata kee nyaadhu; sodaadhaan hollachaa bishaan kee dhugi.
Son of man, eat thy bread in trouble: and drink thy water in hurry and sorrow.
19 Saboota biyyattiitiin akkana jedhi: ‘Waaqayyo Gooftaan waaʼee warra Yerusaalem keessaa fi biyya Israaʼel keessa jiraatanii akkana jedha: Sababii jeequmsa namoota achi jiraatan hundaatiif biyyattiin waan ontuuf isaan nyaata isaanii dhiphinaan nyaatu; bishaan isaanii immoo sodaadhaan dhugu.
And say to the people of the land: Thus saith the Lord God to them that dwell in Jerusalem in the land of Israel: They shall eat their bread in care, and drink their water in desolation: that the land may become desolate from the multitude that is therein, for the iniquity of all that dwell therein.
20 Magaalaawwan namoonni keessa jiraatan ni barbadaaʼu; biyyattiin immoo ni onti. Sana booddee isin akka ani Waaqayyo taʼe ni beektu.’”
And the cities that are now inhabited shall be laid waste, and the land shall be desolate: and you shall know that I am the Lord.
21 Ergasii dubbiin Waaqayyoo akkana jedhee gara koo dhufe:
And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
22 “Yaa ilma namaa, fakkeenyi isin biyya Israaʼel keessatti, ‘Barri dheerateera; mulʼannis faayidaa dhabeera’ jettan kun maali?
Son of man, what is this proverb that you have in the land of Israel? saying: The days shall be prolonged, and every vision shall fail.
23 Akkana isaaniin jedhi; ‘Waaqayyo Gooftaan akkana jedha: Ani fakkeenya kana nan balleessa; isaan siʼachi Israaʼel keessatti itti hin fayyadaman.’ Atis, ‘Barri itti mulʼanni hundi fiixaan baʼu dhiʼaateera, isaaniin jedhi.
Say to them therefore: Thus saith the Lord God: I will make this proverb to cease, neither shall it be any more a common saying in Israel: and tell them that the days are at hand, and the effect of every vision.
24 Siʼachi mulʼanni sobaa yookaan raajiin sobaa uummata Israaʼel keessa hin jiraatuutii.
For there shall be no more any vain visions, nor doubtful divination in the midst of the children of Israel.
25 Ani Waaqayyo garuu waanan fedhe nan dubbadha; dubbiin sunis utuu hin turin ni raawwatama. Isin yaa mana fincilaa nana, ani waanan dubbadhu hunda bara keessan keessa nan raawwadha, jedha Waaqayyo Gooftaan.’”
For I the Lord will speak: and what word soever I shall speak, it shall come to pass, and shall not be prolonged any more: but in your days, ye provoking house, I will speak the word, and will do it, saith the Lord God.
26 Ergasii dubbiin Waaqayyoo akkana jedhee gara koo dhufe:
And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
27 “Yaa ilma namaa, manni Israaʼel, ‘Mulʼanni inni argu waan bara dheeraa booddee raawwatamuu dha; wanni inni raajus waan bara fagootti guutamuu dha.’
Son of man, behold the house of Israel, they that say: The vision that this man seeth, is for many days to come: and this men prophesieth of times afar off.
28 “Kanaafuu ati akkana isaaniin jedhi; ‘Waaqayyo Gooftaan akkana jedha: Siʼachi dubbiin koo tokko iyyuu lafa irra hin harkifatu; wanni ani jedhu kam iyyuu ni raawwatama, jedha Waaqayyo Gooftaan.’”
Therefore say to them: Thus saith the Lord God: Not one word of mine shall be prolonged any more: the word that I shall speak shall be accomplished, saith the Lord God.
