Hisqiʼeel 19

1 “Waaʼee ilmaan mootota Israaʼeliif faarsii booʼi;

And you take up a lamentation because of [the] princes of Israel.

2 akkanas jedhi: “‘Haati kee leencota gidduutti, leenca akkamii turte! Isheen leencota gidduu ciiftee ilmoolee ishee guddifatte.

And you will say what? [was] mother your a lioness between lions she lay down in among young lions she reared cubs her.

3 Ilmoolee ishee keessaas tokko guddifatte; innis leenca jabaa taʼe. Inni waa adamsee ciccirachuu barate; namootas nyaate.

And she brought up one of cubs her a young lion it was and it learned to tear prey human[s] it devoured.

4 Saboonni waaʼee isaa dhagaʼan; inni boolla isaanii keessatti qabame. Isaan hokkoodhaan harkisanii gara biyya Gibxitti isa geessan.

And they heard concerning it nations in pit their it was caught and they brought it with hooks to [the] land of Egypt.

5 “‘Isheen yommuu akka abdiin ishee hin guutamin, akka wanni isheen yaaddes hin milkaaʼin argitetti, ilmoolee ishee keessaa kan biraa fudhattee leenca jabaa gootee guddifte.

And she saw that she waited it was lost hope her and she took one of cubs her a young lion she made it.

6 Inni leencota gidduu biddiiqe; leenca jabaa taʼeeraatii. Inni waa adamsee ciccirachuu barate; namootas nyaate.

And it went about in among lions a young lion it was and it learned to tear prey human[s] it devoured.

7 Inni daʼannoo isaanii diige; magaalaawwan isaaniis onse. Biyyattii fi kanneen ishee keessa jiraatan hundi aaduu isaatiin raafaman.

And it knew widows its and cities their it laid waste and it was desolate [the] land and what fills it from [the] sound of roaring its.

8 Ergasii saboonni warri kutaalee biyya naannoo sanaa jiran isatti kaʼan. Isaanis kiyyoo isaanii isa duratti diriirsan; innis boolla isaanii keessatti qabame.

And they set on it nations all around from provinces and they spread out over it net their in pit their it was caught.

9 Isaan hokkoodhaan qabanii mana shiboo keessa isa kaaʼan; gara mootii Baabilonitti isa fidan. Mana hidhaatti isa galchan; kanaafuu aaduun isaa tulluuwwan Israaʼel irratti ergasii hin dhagaʼamne.

And they put it in cage with hooks and they brought it to [the] king of Babylon they brought it in strongholds so that not it will be heard voice its again to [the] mountains of Israel.

10 “‘Haati kee akkuma wayinii lafa qotiisaa kee keessa bishaan bira dhaabatee ti; biqiltuun sunis sababii bishaan baayʼee argatteef mistee damee hedduu baaffatte.

Mother your like vine in blood your at water planted fruitful and full of branches it was from waters many.

11 Dameewwan isaas jajjaboo bokkuu bulchaatiif taʼan turan. Isheen baalawwan gobbatan gidduutti ol dheerina isheetii fi baayʼina dameewwan isheetiin ol dheerattee mulʼatti turte.

And they belonged to it branches of strength to scepters of rulers and it was lofty stature its above between branches and it was seen by height its by [the] abundance of branches its.

12 Isheen garuu aariidhaan buqqifamtee lafatti gatamte. Bubbeen baʼa biiftuu ishee gogsee ija ishee irraa harcaase; dameewwan ishee ciccimoonis ni coollagan; ibiddis isaan fixe.

And it was plucked up in rage to the ground it was thrown down and [the] wind of the east it dried up fruit its they were torn off and they became dry [the] branch of strength its a fire it consumed it.

13 Amma isheen gammoojjii keessa, lafa gogaa dheebote irra dhaabamte.

And now [it is] planted in the wilderness in a land dry and thirst.

14 Damee ishee tokko keessaa ibiddi baʼee ija ishee fixe. Dameen jabaan bokkuu bulchaatiif taʼu tokko iyyuu ishee irratti hin hafne.’ Kun faaruu booʼichaa kan booʼichaaf itti fayyadamanii dha.”

And it went out fire from [the] branch of shoots its fruit its it consumed and not it was in it a branch of strength a scepter to rule [is] a lamentation it and it has become a lamentation.
