Hisqiʼeel 24
1 Waggaa saglaffaa, jiʼa kurnaffaa keessa bultii kurnaffaatti; dubbiin Waaqayyoo akkana jedhee gara koo dhufe:
Again, in the ninth year, in the tenth month, in the tenth day of the month, the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
2 “Yaa ilma namaa guyyaa kana, guyyaa harʼaa kana galmeeffadhu; mootiin Baabilon guyyaa harʼaa kana Yerusaalemin marseeraatii.
"Son of man, write the name of the day, even of this same day: the king of Babylon drew close to Jerusalem this same day.
3 Mana fincilaa kanatti akkana jedhii fakkeenya himi: ‘Waaqayyo Gooftaan akkana jedha: “‘Okkotee itti affeelan ibidda irra kaaʼi; ibidda irra kaaʼiitii bishaan itti naqi.
Utter a parable to the rebellious house, and tell them, 'Thus says the LORD, "Set on the caldron, set it on, and also pour water into it:
4 Foon murmuramaa, foon murmuramaa filatamaa hunda jechuunis tafaa fi cinaacha itti naqi. Lafeewwan filatamoodhaanis isa guuti;
gather its pieces into it, even every good piece, the thigh, and the shoulder; fill it with the choice bones.
5 bushaayee keessaa filatamaa isaa fuudhi. Lafee bilcheessuudhaaf okkotee sana jala qoraan naqi; akka gaariitti affeeli; lafee isaas bilcheessi.
Take the choice of the flock, and also a pile of wood for the bones under the caldron; make it boil well; yes, let its bones be boiled in its midst."'
6 “‘Waaqayyo Gooftaan akkana jedhaatii: “‘Magaalaa dhiiga namaa dhangalaaftuuf, okkotee xuriin itti qabatee xuriin sun irraa hin baʼiniif wayyoo! Utuu ixaa hin buusin gumaa gumaa isaa keessaa fuudhii duwwaa hambisi.
"Therefore thus says the LORD: 'Woe to the bloody city, to the caldron whose rust is in it, and whose rust is not gone out of it. Take out of it piece after piece; No lot is fallen on it.
7 “‘Dhiigni isheen dhangalaafte ishee keessa jiraatii; isheen kattaa qulullaaʼaa irratti dhiiga sana dhangalaafte; isheen dhiiga sanatti biyyoo deebisuuf lafatti hin dhangalaafne.
For her blood is in the midst of her; she set it on the bare rock; she didn't pour it on the ground, to cover it with dust.
8 Ani dheekkamsa koo kakaasee haaloo baʼuuf jedhee akka dhiigni sun hin haguugamneef dhiiga ishee kattaa qulullaaʼaa irratti nan dhangalaase.
That it may cause wrath to come up to take vengeance, I have set her blood on the bare rock, that it should not be covered.'
9 “‘Kanaafuu Waaqayyo Gooftaan akkana jedha: “‘Magaalaa dhiiga dhangalaaftu sanaaf wayyoo! Anis qoraan ibiddaa nan tuula.
"Therefore thus says the LORD: 'Woe to the bloody city. I also will make the pile great.
10 Qoraan irra tuuli; ibiddas itti qabsiisi. Urgooftuu itti naqiitii foon isaa akka gaariitti affeeli; lafeen isaas haa gubamu.
Pile on the wood, make the fire hot, boil the meat well, and mix in the spices, and let the bones be burned up.
11 Ergasii akka xuriin isaa irraa baqee wanni irratti ligidaaʼe gubatee baduuf, hamma inni hoʼee sibiilli diimaan isaa baqutti, okkotee duwwaa sana cilee bobaʼu irra kaaʼi.
Then set it empty on its coals, that it may be hot, and its bronze may burn, and that its filthiness may be molten in it, that its rust may be consumed.
12 Yaaliin godhame hundi akkasumaan hafe; ligidaaʼuun isaas ibiddaan iyyuu gad hin dhiifne.
She has wearied herself with toil; yet her great rust doesn't go forth out of her; her rust doesn't go forth by fire.
13 “‘Xuraaʼummaan kee addaggummaa dha. Ani si qulqulleessuu yaaleera; ati garuu xuraaʼummaa kee irraa hin qulqulloofne; hamma dheekkamsi koo sirraa deebiʼutti ati lammata hin qulqullooftu.
In your filthiness is lewdness: because I have cleansed you and you weren't cleansed, you shall not be cleansed from your filthiness any more, until I have caused my wrath toward you to rest.
14 “‘Ani Waaqayyo dubbadheera. Yeroon ani itti hojjedhu naaf dhufeera. Ani duubatti hin deebiʼu; ani garaa hin laafu yookaan hin gaabbu. Akkuma amala keetiittii fi hojii keetiitti sitti murama, jedha Waaqayyo Gooftaan.’”
I, the LORD, have spoken it: it shall happen, and I will do it: I will not go back, neither will I spare, neither will I repent; according to your ways and according to your deeds I will judge you,' says the LORD."
15 Ergasii dubbiin Waaqayyoo akkana jedhee gara koo dhufe:
Also the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
16 “Yaa ilma namaa, ani waan iji kee itti gammadu dhaʼicha tokkoon si duraa nan fuudha. Taʼus ati hin gaddin yookaan hin booʼin yookaan imimmaan tokko iyyuu hin dhangalaasin.
"Son of man, look, I will take away from you the desire of your eyes with a stroke: yet you shall neither mourn nor weep, neither shall your tears run down.
17 Of keessatti aadi; nama duʼeef hin booʼin. Marata kee maradhu; kophee kees miilla keetti kaaʼadhu; fuula kee gara gadiitiin hin haguuggatin yookaan buddeena warra gaddaa hin nyaatin.”
Sigh, but not aloud, make no mourning for the dead; bind your headdress on you, and put your shoes on your feet, and do not cover your lips, and do not eat men's bread."
18 Kanaafuu ani ganamaan sabatti nan hime; niitiin koos galgala duute. Guyyaa itti aanu ganama ani akkuman ajajame sana nan godhe.
So I spoke to the people in the morning; and at even my wife died; and I did in the morning as I was commanded.
19 Namoonnis, “Waan kana gochuun kee hiikkaa maalii akka nuuf qabu ati nutti hin himtuu?” jedhanii na gaafatan.
The people said to me, "Won't you tell us what these things are to us, that you do so?"
20 Anis akkanan isaaniin jedhe; “Dubbiin Waaqayyoo akkana jedhee gara koo dhufe:
Then I said to them, "The word of the LORD came to me, saying,
21 Mana Israaʼeliin akkana jedhi; ‘Waaqayyo Gooftaan akkana jedha: Ani iddoo koo qulqulluu jechuunis daʼannoo isin ittiin boontan, waan iji keessan itti gammadu, waan isin jaallattan sana nan xureessa. Ilmaanii fi intallan keessan kanneen isin dhiiftanii deemtan immoo goraadeedhaan ni dhumu.
'Speak to the house of Israel, "Thus says the LORD: Look, I will profane my sanctuary, the pride of your power, the desire of your eyes, and that which your soul pities; and your sons and your daughters whom you have left behind shall fall by the sword.
22 Isinis akkuma ani godhe sana gootu. Fuula keessan gara gadiitiin hin haguuggattan yookaan buddeena warra gaddaa hin nyaattu.
You shall do as I have done: you shall not cover your lips, nor eat the bread of men.
23 Maranni keessan mataa keessan irra, kopheen keessan immoo miilla keessan irra haa turu. Isin sababii cubbuu keessaniitiif ni huqqattan; walii wajjinis ni aaddu malee hin gadditan yookaan hin boossan.
Your turbans shall be on your heads, and your shoes on your feet: you shall not mourn nor weep; but you shall pine away in your iniquities, and moan one toward another.
24 Hisqiʼeel mallattoo isiniif taʼa; isinis akkuma inni godhe sana ni gootan. Yeroo wanni kun taʼutti isin akka ani Waaqayyo Gooftaa taʼe ni beektu.’
Thus Ezekiel shall be a sign to you; according to all that he has done, you will do. When this comes, then you will know that I am the LORD."'"
25 “Yaa ilma namaa, gaafa ani daʼannoo isaanii, gammachuu fi ulfina isaanii, waan iji isaanii itti gammadu, waan garaan isaanii hawwuu fi ilmaanii fi intallan isaanii fudhadhutti,
"You, son of man, shall it not be in the day when I take from them their strength, the joy of their glory, the desire of their eyes, and that whereupon they set their heart, their sons and their daughters,
26 gaafas namni miliqee baʼe tokko dhufee oduu sitti hima.
that in that day he who escapes shall come to you, to cause you to hear it with your ears?
27 Gaafas afaan kee ni banama; atis isa wajjin ni haasofta; ergasii hin calʼistu. Kanaafuu ati isaaniif mallattoo ni taata; isaanis akka ani Waaqayyo taʼe ni beeku.”
In that day your mouth will be opened to him who has escaped, and you shall speak, and be no more mute: so you will be a sign to them; and they shall know that I am the LORD."
