Hisqiʼeel 25
1 Ergasii dubbiin Waaqayyoo akkana jedhee gara koo dhufe:
[Some time later, ] Yahweh gave me another message. [He said, ]
2 “Yaa ilma namaa, fuula kee gara Amoonotaatti garagalfadhuutii isaaniin mormuudhaan raaji.
“You human, turn toward where the Ammon people- [lives], and prophesy [what will happen to] them.
3 Akkanas isaaniin jedhi; ‘Dubbii Waaqayyo Gooftaa dhagaʼaa. Waaqayyo Gooftaan akkana jedha: Yeroo iddoon koo qulqulluun xureeffametti, yeroo biyyi Israaʼel onetti, yeroo uummanni Yihuudaa boojiʼamee fudhatametti, “Baga!” jettaniirtuutii;
Say about them, ‘This is what Yahweh the Lord says: “You shouted joyfully when my [in Jerusalem] was destroyed, and when the country/land of Israel was ruined, and when the people of Judah were (exiled/forced to go) [to Babylonia].
4 kanaafuu ani saba baʼa biiftuutti handhuuraa godheen dabarsee isin kenna. Isaan gidduu keessanitti qubata hundeeffatanii dunkaana isaanii ni dhaabbatu; isaan midhaan keessan nyaatu; aannan keessanis ni dhugu.
Therefore, I am going to allow you to be conquered by people [who will come] from the east. They will set up their tents in your country and live there. And they will eat the fruit from [fruit trees] and drink the [from your cattle].
5 Magaalaa Rabbaa iddoo gaalli dheedu, Amoon immoo iddoo hoolaan boqotu nan godha. Ergasiis isin akka ani Waaqayyo taʼe ni beektu.
I will [your capital city] Rabbah to become a pasture for camels, and the rest of Ammon to [only] a resting place for sheep. Then you will know that I, Yahweh, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].”
6 Waaqayyo Gooftaan akkana jedhaatii: Isin jalʼina garaa keessaniitiin badiisa biyya Israaʼelitti gammaduudhaan harka keessan walitti rurrukuttanii miilla keessaniin lafa dhidhiittaniirtuutii;
This is what [I], Yahweh the Lord, say: “You clapped your [joyfully] and stomped your feet, and laughed because you despised [the people in] the land of Israel.
7 kanaafuu ani harka koo isinitti diriirfadhee boojuuf dabarsee sabootatti isinan kenna. Ani saboota irraa isin kutee biyyoota keessaa isinan balleessa. Ani isinan barbadeessa; isinis akka ani Waaqayyo taʼe ni beektu.’”
Therefore, I will use my power [MTY] against you, and I will enable [other] nations [conquer you and] take away your valuable possessions. I will destroy you completely [DOU], with the result that you no longer will be a nation. When that happens, people will know that I, Yahweh, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].’”
8 “Waaqayyo Gooftaan akkana jedha: ‘Moʼaabii fi Seeʼiir, “Kunoo manni Yihuudaa akkuma saboota biraa hundaa taʼe” jedhaniiruutii;
This is [also] what Yahweh the Lord says: “[The people of] [south of Ammon] and [the people of] [south of Moab despised Israel and] said, ‘The people [MTY] of Israel have [as unimportant] as all the other nations!’
9 kanaafuu magaalaawwan daangaa biyyattii irra jiran kanneen ishee kabajamsiisan jechuunis Beet Yashiimooti, Baʼaal Meʼoonii fi Kiriyaataayimii jalqabee hamma Moʼaabitti jiran qullaa nan hambisa.
Therefore, I will destroy the cities that protect the borders of Moab, starting at Beth-Jeshimoth, Baal-Meon, and Kiriathaim, the finest cities in Moab.
10 Ani akka Amoononni saboota gidduutti hin yaadatamneef Moʼaabotaa fi Amoonota handhuuraa godhee uummata baʼaatti nan kenna;
I will enable people from the east to conquer Moab and also to conquer Ammon. As a result, [I will cause that] Ammon will no longer be remembered by other nations.
11 anis Moʼaabin nan adaba. Ergasii isaan akka ani Waaqayyo taʼe ni beeku.’”
I will also punish [the people of] Moab. When that happens, they will know that I, Yahweh, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].”
12 “Waaqayyo Gooftaan akkana jedha: ‘Sababii Edoom mana Yihuudaatti haaloo baʼee waan kana gochuudhaan yakka guddaa hojjeteef,
This is [also] what Yahweh the Lord says: “[You people of] Edom are guilty of getting revenge on the people [MTY] of Judah.
13 Waaqayyo Gooftaan akkana jedha: Ani Edoomitti harka koo diriirfadhee namoota isheetii fi horii isaanii nan fixa. Ani ishee nan onsa; isaanis Teemaanii hamma Dedaaniitti goraadeedhaan ni dhumu.
Therefore this is what [I], Yahweh the Lord, say: 'I will use my power against [the people of] Edom and will get rid of their men and their animals. I will ruin the land from Teman [region in central Edom] to Dedan [region in the south of Edom], and many of their men will be killed [their enemies] swords.'
14 Ani harka saba koo Israaʼeliin Edoomitti haaloo nan baʼa; isaanis akkuma aarii fi dheekkamsa kootiitti Edoomin adabu; Edoomis haaloo baafachuu koo ni beekti, jedha Waaqayyo Gooftaan.’”
The Israeli people will use their power [MTY] to get revenge on [the people of] Edom. They will show [the people of] Edom that I have been angry with them, and I will punish [MTY] them. The people of Edom will experience my getting revenge on them. Then they will know that I, Yahweh the Lord, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].”
15 “Waaqayyo Gooftaan akkana jedha: ‘Sababii Filisxeemonni didhaan kakaʼanii garaa hamminaatiin haaloo baʼanii fi sababii isaan diinummaa duriitiin Yihuudaa balleessuu barbaadaniif,
This is [also] what Yahweh the Lord says: “The Philistia people-group wanted very much to get revenge [on the people of Judah]. They very maliciously wanted to destroy [Judah].
16 Waaqayyo Gooftaan akkana jedha: Ani harka koo diriirfadhee Filisxeemota nan balleessa; Kereetota nan balleessa; warra qarqara galaanaatti hafan nan barbadeessa.
Therefore this is what I, Yahweh the Lord, say: I am about to use my power [MTY] against the Philistia people. I will get rid of the Kereth people-group and all [those who live along] the coast of the [Mediterranean] Sea.
17 Ani haaloo guddaa isaanitti baʼee dheekkamsa kootiin isaan nan adaba. Yeroo ani haaloo isaan baʼutti isaan akka ani Waaqayyo taʼe ni beeku.’”
By the way I punish them, I will get great revenge on them and show that I am angry with them. And when I get revenge on them, they will know that I, Yahweh the Lord, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].'”
