< Hisqiʼeel 13 >

1 Ergasii dubbiin Waaqayyoo akkana jedhee gara koo dhufe:
And the word of Jehovah came to me, saying:
2 “Yaa ilma namaa, raajota Israaʼel kanneen amma raajii dubbachaa jiraniin mormuudhaan raaji. Warra yaaduma ofii isaanii raajaniin akkana jedhi: ‘Dubbii Waaqayyoo dhagaʼaa!
Son of man, prophesy against the prophets of Israel that prophesy, and say to them that prophesy out of their own hearts, Hear ye the word of Jehovah!
3 Waaqayyo Gooftaan akkana jedha: Raajota gowwaa kanneen utuu homaa hin argin hafuura ofii isaanii duukaa buʼan sanaaf wayyoo!
Thus saith the Lord Jehovah: Woe to the foolish prophets, that follow their own spirit, and have seen nothing!
4 Yaa Israaʼel, raajonni kee akkuma waangota waan diigame gidduu jiraatanii ti.
Thy prophets, O Israel, are like the foxes in the deserts.
5 Isin akka dallaan sun guyyaa waraana Waaqayyootti jabaatee dhaabatuuf dallaa cabe sana mana Israaʼeliif deebiftanii ijaaruudhaaf jettanii ol hin baane.
Ye have not gone up into the breaches, nor built a wall around the house of Israel, to stand in battle in the day of Jehovah.
6 Mulʼanni isaanii soba; raajiin isaanii soba. Isaan utuu Waaqayyo isaan hin ergin, “Waaqayyo akkana jedha” jedhu; taʼus isaan akka dubbiin isaanii raawwatamu eeggatu.
They see falsehood, and lying divination. They say, “Jehovah hath spoken,” when Jehovah hath not sent them; and they cause men to hope for the fulfilment of the word.
7 Ani dubbachuu baadhu iyyuu isin, “Waaqayyo akkana jedha” jechuun keessan mulʼata sobaa arguu keessanii fi raajii sobaa dubbachuu keessan mitii?
Have ye not seen a false vision, and have ye not spoken a lying divination, and said, “Jehovah hath spoken,” when I have not spoken?
8 “‘Kanaafuu Waaqayyo Gooftaan akkana jedha: Sababii dubbii sobaa keessaniitii fi mulʼata sobaa keessaniitiif ani isinitti kaʼa, jedha Waaqayyo Gooftaan.
Therefore thus saith the Lord Jehovah: Because ye have spoken falsehood and have seen a lie, therefore, behold, I am against you, saith the Lord Jehovah.
9 Harki koo raajota mulʼata sobaa arganii raajii sobaa dubbatanitti ni kaʼa. Isaan miseensa waldaa saba kootii hin taʼan yookaan galmee mana Israaʼel irratti hin galmeeffaman yookaan biyya Israaʼel hin seenan. Ergasii isin akka ani Waaqayyo Gooftaa taʼe ni beektu.
My hand shall be against the prophets that see falsehood and divine lies. They shall not be in the assembly of my people, neither shall they be written in the register of the house of Israel, neither shall they enter into the land of Israel: and ye shall know that I am the Lord Jehovah.
10 “‘Isaan yeroo nagaan hin jirretti, “Nagaa dha” jechaa saba koo karaa irraa waan jalʼisanii yeroo namoonni dallaa dhagaa ijaaranitti nooraa dibaniif,
Because, yea, because they seduce my people, and say, “Peace!” when there is no peace; and one buildeth up a wall, and, behold, they daub it with untempered mortar;
11 ati akka dallaan sun jigu warra nooraa itti diban sanatti himi. Bokkaan hamaan ni rooba; dhagaan cabbii ni buʼa; bubbeen jabaan ni bubbisa.
say to them which daub it with untempered mortar, that it shall fall; there shall be an overflowing shower, and ye, O great hailstones, shall fall, and a stormy wind shall rend it.
12 Yeroo dallaan sun jigutti namoonni, “Nooraan isin itti dibdan sun eessa jira” jedhanii isin hin gaafatanii?
So when the wall is fallen, shall not men say to you, “Where is the daubing wherewith ye have daubed it?”
13 “‘Kanaafuu Waaqayyo Gooftaan akkana jedha: Ani dheekkamsa kootiin bubbee hamaa nan kaasa; aarii kootiinis dhagaa cabbii fi bokkaa hamaan badiisa fidu ni rooba.
Therefore thus saith the Lord Jehovah: I will even rend it with a stormy wind in my fury, and there shall be an overflowing shower in mine anger, and great hailstones in my fury to consume it.
14 Ani akka hundeen isaa qullaatti hafuuf dhagaa isin nooraa dibdan sana diigee lafaan wal nan qixxeessa. Yommuu inni jigutti isin isa keessatti ni barbadeeffamtu; akka ani Waaqayyo taʼes ni beektu.
Thus I will break down the wall which ye have daubed with untempered mortar, and will bring it down to the ground, so that the foundation thereof shall be discovered; it shall fall, and ye shall be consumed in the midst thereof, that ye may know that I am Jehovah.
15 Dallaa sanaa fi warra nooraa itti dibanitti dheekkamsa koo nan roobsa. Anis akkana isiniin nan jedha; “Dallaan sunii fi warri dallaa sana nooraa diban sun ni badu;
Thus will I accomplish my fury upon the wall, and upon them that daubed it with untempered mortar; and I will say to you, The wall is no more, nor they that daubed it;
16 raajonni Israaʼel kanneen Yerusaalemiif raajanii utuu nagaan hin jiraatin mulʼata nagaa isheef argan sunis ni badu, jedha Waaqayyo Gooftaan.”’
even the prophets of Israel, who prophesy concerning Jerusalem, and see visions of peace for her when there is no peace, saith the Lord Jehovah.
17 “Ammas yaa ilma namaa, fuula kee gara intallan saba keetii kanneen waanuma ofii yaadan raajaniitti deebifadhuutii isaaniin mormuudhaan raaji;
Likewise, son of man, set thou thy face against the daughters of thy people, who prophesy out of their own heart; and prophesy thou against them.
18 akkanas jedhi; ‘Waaqayyo Gooftaan akkana jedha: Dubartoota kiyyoo keessa nama galchuuf jedhanii manyʼee harka isaanii hundaaf kudhaama hodhatanii haguuggii garaa garaa mataa isaaniitti haguuggataniif wayyoo. Isin lubbuu saba koo kiyyoo keessa galchitanii kan ofii keessanii immoo oolfattuu?
And say, Thus saith the Lord Jehovah: Woe to the women that sew cushions for all elbows, and make pillows for heads of every stature, to ensnare men to destruction! Will ye hunt the lives of my people, and shall ye save your own?
19 Isin garbuu konyee tokkoo fi buddeena cabaa tokkoof jettanii uummata koo gidduutti na xureessitaniirtu. Uummata koo isa soba keessan dhagaʼuttis sobuudhaan warra duʼuu hin qabne ajjeeftanii warra jiraachuu hin qabne immoo baraartaniirtu.
And will ye pollute me among my people for handfuls of barley, and for pieces of bread, slaying them that should not die, and saving them alive that should not live, by lying to my people, who hearken to your lies?
20 “‘Kanaafuu Waaqayyo Gooftaan akkana jedha: Kunoo, ani kudhaama keessan kan isin akkuma simbira kiyyeeffamtuutti uummata ittiin kiyyeessitanitti nan kaʼa; harka keessan irraas nan cira; uummata isin akkuma simbirri kiyyeeffamtutti kiyyeessitan sanas kiyyoo keessaa nan baasa.
Therefore thus saith the Lord Jehovah: Behold, I will set myself against the cushions with which ye ensnare men to destruction, so that they shall escape you; and I will tear them from your arms, and make them free whom ye would ensnare, so that they shall escape you.
21 Ani haguuggii keessan tarsaasee saba koo harka keessan keessaa nan baasa; isaan siʼachi harka keessan jalatti hin bulan. Ergasii isin akka ani Waaqayyo taʼe ni beektu.
Your pillows also will I tear, and deliver my people out of your hand, and they shall no more be in your hand to be ensnared, and ye shall know that I am Jehovah.
22 Ani isa dirqisiisuu baadhu iyyuu isin waan soba keessaniin nama qajeelaa dirqisiiftanii fi waan akka namni hamaan karaa isaa hamaa sana irraa deebiʼee lubbuu isaa oolfatuuf hin jajjabeessiniif,
Because with lies ye have made sad the heart of the righteous, whom I have not made sad, and have strengthened the hands of the wicked, that he should not return from his wicked way, by promising him life;
23 isin siʼachi mulʼata sobaa hin argitan yookaan raajii sobaa hin dubbattan. Anis saba koo harka keessan keessaa nan baasa. Ergasiis isin akka ani Waaqayyo taʼe ni beektu.’”
therefore shall ye no more see falsehood, nor divine divinations; but I will deliver my people out of your hand, and ye shall know that I am Jehovah.
