Hisqiʼeel 12
1 Ergasii dubbiin Waaqayyoo akkana jedhee gara koo dhufe:
The word of Yahweh 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, you live in the midst of a rebellious house, where they have eyes to see but they do not see; and where they have ears to hear but do not listen, because they are a rebellious 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.
Therefore as for you, son of man, prepare your things for exile, and begin going out by day in their sight, for I will exile you in their sight from your place to another place. Perhaps they will begin to see, though they are a rebellious house.
4 Miʼa kee kan boojiʼamuuf qopheeffatte sana utuma isaan arganuu guyyaa adiidhaan baafadhu. Utuma isaan arganuus galgalaan akkuma warra boojiʼamuuf deemaniitti baʼii deemi.
You will bring out your things for an exile in the day in their sight; go out in the evening in their sight in the way that anyone goes into exile.
5 Utuma isaan arganuus dallaa uriitii miʼa kee achi keessaan baafadhu.
Dig a hole through the wall in their sight, and go out 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, lift up your things onto your shoulder, and bring them out in the darkness. Cover your face, for you must not see the land, since I have set you as a sign 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.
So I did this, just as I was commanded. I brought out my things of exile in the daytime, and in the evening I dug a hole through the wall by hand. I brought my things out in the dark, and lifted them up on my shoulder in their sight.
8 Guyyaa itti aanu ganamas dubbiin Waaqayyoo akkana jedhee gara koo dhufe:
Then the word of Yahweh 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, is the house of Israel, that rebellious house, not asking, 'What are you 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, 'The Lord Yahweh says this: this prophetic action concerns the prince in Jerusalem, and all the house of Israel in whose midst they are.'
11 Atis, ‘Ani mallattoo keessan’ isaaniin jedhi. “Wanni ani hojjedhe sun isaan irra ni gaʼa. Isaan boojiʼamanii ni fudhatamu.
Say, 'I am a sign to you.' As I have done, so it will be done to them; they will go into exile and 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.
The prince who is among them will lift up his things upon his shoulder in the dark, and will go out through the wall. They will dig through the wall and bring out their things. He will cover his face, so he will not see the land 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.
I will spread out my net over him and he will be caught in my snare; then I will bring him to Babylon, the land of the Chaldeans, but he will not see it. He will die there.
14 Ani warra isa wajjin jiran hunda gargaartota isaatii fi loltoota isaa hunda bubbeetti nan bittinneessa; goraadee luqqifameenis isaan nan ariʼa.
I will also scatter in every direction all of those around him who were to assist him and his entire army, and I will send out a sword after them.
15 “Isaan yommuu ani saboota gidduutti isaan bittinneessee biyyoota keessa isaan faffacaasutti, akka ani Waaqayyo taʼe ni beeku.
Then they will know that I am Yahweh, when I scatter them among the nations and disperse them throughout the lands.
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.”
But I will spare a few men from among them from the sword, famine, and plague, so they may record all of their abominations in the lands where I take them, so they will know that I am Yahweh.”
17 Ergasii dubbiin Waaqayyoo akkana jedhee gara koo dhufe:
The word of Yahweh came to me, saying,
18 “Yaa ilma namaa, raafamuudhaan nyaata kee nyaadhu; sodaadhaan hollachaa bishaan kee dhugi.
“Son of man, eat your bread with trembling, and drink your water with shaking and worry.
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.
Then say to the people of the land, 'The Lord Yahweh says this concerning the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and the land of Israel, “They will eat their bread with trembling and drink their water while shaking, since the land will be despoiled of its fullness because of the violence of all those who live there.
20 Magaalaawwan namoonni keessa jiraatan ni barbadaaʼu; biyyattiin immoo ni onti. Sana booddee isin akka ani Waaqayyo taʼe ni beektu.’”
So the cities that were inhabited will be desolate, and the land will become a wasteland; so you will know that I am Yahweh.”'”
21 Ergasii dubbiin Waaqayyoo akkana jedhee gara koo dhufe:
Again the word of Yahweh 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 that says, 'The days are prolonged, and every vision fails'?
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.
Therefore, say to them, 'The Lord Yahweh says this: I will put an end to this proverb, and the people of Israel will no longer use it.' Say to them, 'The days have drawn near when every vision will be fulfilled.
24 Siʼachi mulʼanni sobaa yookaan raajiin sobaa uummata Israaʼel keessa hin jiraatuutii.
For there will no longer be any false visions or favorable divinations within the house 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 am Yahweh! I speak, and I carry out the words that I speak. The matter will no longer be delayed. For I will speak this word in your days, rebellious house, and I will carry it out!—this is the Lord Yahweh's declaration.'”
26 Ergasii dubbiin Waaqayyoo akkana jedhee gara koo dhufe:
Again the word of Yahweh 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 has said, 'The vision that he sees is for many days from now, and he prophesies of far off times.'
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, 'The Lord Yahweh says this: My words will not be delayed any longer, but the word that I have spoken will be done—this is the Lord Yahweh's declaration.'”
