Hisqiʼeel 3
1 Innis, “Yaa ilma namaa waan fuula kee dura jiru nyaadhu; kitaaba maramaa kana nyaadhu; ergasii dhaqiitii mana Israaʼelitti himi” naan jedhe.
And he said to me, Son of Man, eat this volume, and go and speak to the children of Israel.
2 Kanaafuu ani afaan koon banadhe; innis akka ani nyaadhuuf kitaaba maramaa sana naa kenne.
So he opened my mouth, and caused me to eat the volume. And he said to me, Son of man,
3 Innis, “Yaa ilma namaa, kitaaba maramaa ani siif kennu kana nyaadhu; garaa kees ittiin guuttadhu” naan jedhe. Anis nan nyaadhe; afaan koo keessattis akka dammaa natti miʼaawe.
thy mouth shall eat, and thy belly shall be filled with this volume that is given to thee. So I ate it; and it was in my mouth as sweet as honey.
4 Ergasii immoo akkana naan jedhe: “Yaa ilma namaa, amma gara mana Israaʼel dhaqiitii dubbii koo isaanitti himi.
And he said to me, Son of man, go thy way, and go in to the house of Israel, and speak my words to them.
5 Ati gara mana Israaʼelitti malee gara uummata haasaan isaa namaa hin gallee fi afaan isaa nama rakkisuutti hin ergamne;
For thou art not sent to a people of hard speech, [but] to the house of Israel;
6 ati gara uummata haasaan isaanii namaa hin gallee fi afaan isaanii nama rakkisu kan ati dubbii isaanii illee hubachuu hin dandeenyeetti hin ergamne. Dhugumaan utuu ani isaanitti si ergee jiraadhee silaa isaan si dhaggeeffatu ture.
neither to many nations of other speech and other tongues, nor of harsh language, whose words thou wouldest not understand: although if I [had] sent thee to such, they would have hearkened to thee.
7 Manni Israaʼel garuu sababii ana dhagaʼuu hin feeneef siinis dhagaʼuu hin fedhan; manni Israaʼel hundi didaa fi mata jabeeyyiidhaatii.
But the house of Israel will not be willing to hearken to thee; for they will not hearken to me: for all the house of Israel are stubborn and hard-hearted.
8 Kunoo, ani fuula kee fuula isaaniitti jabeesseera; adda kee illee adda isaatiin jabeesseera.
And, behold, I have made thy face strong against their faces, and I will strengthen thy power against their power.
9 Adda kee akka dhagaa akka malee jabaa kan dhagaa baalcii caalaa jabaatuu nan godha. Isaan mana fincilaa taʼan iyyuu ati isaan hin sodaatin yookaan isaan si hin rifachiisin.”
And it shall be continually stronger than a rock: be not afraid of them, neither be dismayed at their faces, because it is a provoking house.
10 Innis akkana naan jedhe; “Yaa ilma namaa, waan ani sitti dubbadhu hunda sirriitti dhagaʼiitii garaatti qabadhu.
And he said to me, Son of man, receive into thine heart all the words that I have spoken to thee, and hear [them] with thine ears.
11 Amma gara saba kee warra boojiʼaman sanaa dhaqiitii isaanitti dubbadhu. Isaan dhagaʼanis dhagaʼuu baatanis, ‘Waaqayyo Gooftaan akkana jedha’ jedhiin.”
And go thy way, go in to the captivity, to the children of thy people, and thou shalt speak to them, and say to them, Thus saith the Lord; whether they will hear, [or] whether they will forbear.
12 Ergasiis Hafuurri ol na kaase; anis sagalee guddaa gigigsu kan, “Ulfinni Waaqayyoo iddoo jireenya isaatti haa eebbifamu!” jedhu tokko of duubaan nan dhagaʼe.
Then the Spirit took me up, and I heard behind me the voice [as] of a great earthquake, [saying], Blessed [be] the glory of the Lord from his place.
13 Sagaleen kunis sagalee guddaa gigigsu kan yeroo qoochoowwan uumamawwan jiraatoo sanaa wal riganii fi sagaleen geengoowwan isaan cina jiran dhageessisan ture.
And I perceived the sound of the wings of the living creatures clapping one to the other, and the sound of the wheels was near them, and the sound of the earthquake.
14 Hafuurris ol na kaasee na fudhatee deeme; anis hadheeffadhee utuma hafuurri koo aaree gubatuu nan deeme; harki Waaqayyoo jabaan sunis ana irra ture.
And the Spirit lifted me, and took me up, and I went in the impulse of my spirit; and the hand of the Lord was mighty upon me.
15 Anis gara boojiʼamtoota Teel Abiib keessa Laga Kebaar bira jiraatan sanaan dhufe. Achittis waanan godhu wallaalee guyyaa torba isaan gidduu nan taaʼe.
Then I passed through the air and came into the captivity, and went round [to] them that dwelt by the river of Chobar who were there; and I sat there seven days, conversant in the midst of them.
16 Dhuma guyyaa torbaffaatti dubbiin Waaqayyoo akkana jedhee gara koo dhufe;
And after the seven days the word of the Lord came to me, saying, Son of man,
17 “Yaa ilma namaa, ani mana Israaʼeliitiif eegduu si godheera; kanaafuu dubbii ani dubbadhu dhagaʼiitii akeekkachiisa na biraa baʼu isaaniif kenni.
I have made thee a watchman to the house of Israel; and thou shalt hear a word of my mouth, and shalt threaten them from me.
18 Yeroo ani nama hamaa tokkoon, ‘Ati dhugumaan ni duuta’ jedhutti, yoo ati isa akeekkachiisuu yookaan akka inni karaa isaa hamaa irraa deebiʼee lubbuu isaa oolfatu itti himuu baatte, namichi hamaan sun sababii cubbuu isaatiin ni duʼa; dhiiga isaa garuu ani harka kee irraa nan barbaada.
When I say to the wicked, Thou shalt surely die; and thou hast not warned him, to give warning to the wicked, to turn from his ways, that he should live; that wicked man shall die in his iniquity; but his blood will I require at thy hand.
19 Garuu yoo ati nama hamaa sana akeekkachiiftee inni immoo hammina isaa irraa yookaan karaa isaa isa hamaa sana irraa deebiʼuu baate, inni cubbuu isaatiin ni duʼa; ati garuu lubbuu kee ni oolfatta.
But if thou warn the wicked, and he turn not from his wickedness, and from his way, that wicked man shall die in his iniquity, and thou shalt deliver thy soul.
20 “Amma illee yoo namni qajeelaan tokko qajeelummaa isaa irraa jalʼatee hammina hojjete, ani fuula isaa dura gufuu nan kaaʼa; innis ni duʼa. Waan ati isa hin akeekkachiisiniif inni cubbuu isaatiin ni duʼa; wanni qajeelaan inni hojjete sunis isaaf hin herregamu; anis dhiiga isaatiif sin gaafadha.
And when the righteous turns away from his righteousness, and commits a trespass, and I shall bring punishment before him, he shall die, because thou didst not warn him: he shall even die in his sins, because his righteousness shall not be remembered; but his blood will I require at thine hand.
21 Garuu yoo ati nama qajeelaa sana akka inni cubbuu hin hojjenneef isa akeekkachiiftee innis cubbuu hojjechuu baate, inni sababii akeekkachiisa sana fudhateef dhugumaan lubbuudhaan ni jiraata; atis lubbuu kee ni oolfatta.”
But if thou warn the righteous not to sin, and he sin not, the righteous shall surely live, because thou hast warned him; and thou shalt deliver thine own soul.
22 Achittis harki Waaqayyoo narra ture; innis, “Kaʼiitii gara dirreetti baʼi; anis achitti sitti nan dubbadhaa” naan jedhe.
And the hand of the Lord came upon me; and he said to me, Arise, and go forth into the plain, and there shalt thou be spoken to.
23 Kanaafuu ani kaʼee gara dirreetti nan baʼe. Ulfinni Waaqayyoos achi dhaabatee ture; innis ulfina ani Laga Kebaar biratti argee ture sana fakkaata; anis adda kootiin lafatti nan gombifame.
And I arose, and went forth to the plain: and, behold, the glory of the Lord stood there, according to the vision, and according to the glory of the Lord, which I saw by the river of Chobar: and I fell on my face.
24 Ergasii Hafuurri anatti seenee miilla kootiin na dhaabachiise. Innis akkana jedhee natti dubbate: “Mana keetti galiitii ofitti cufi.
Then the Spirit came upon me, and set me on my feet, and spoke to me, and said to me, Go in, and shut thyself up in the midst of thine house.
25 Yaa ilma namaa, isaan funyoodhaan si hidhu; ati akka uummata gidduu deemuu hin dandeenyeef ni hidhamta.
And thou, son of man, behold, bonds are prepared for thee, and they shall bind thee with them, and thou shalt not come forth of the midst of them.
26 Isaan mana fincilaa taʼan iyyuu, ani akka ati hin dubbannee fi isaanitti dheekkamuu hin dandeenyeef arraba kee laagaa keetti nan maxxansa.
Also I will bind thy tongue, and thou shalt be dumb, and shalt not be to them a reprover: because it is a provoking house.
27 Ani yeroon sitti dubbadhutti garuu afaan kee siifan bana; atis, ‘Waaqayyo Gooftaan akkana jedha’ isaaniin jetta. Namni dhagaʼuu barbaadu kam iyyuu haa dhagaʼu; namni dhagaʼuu hin barbaanne kam iyyuu dhagaʼuu haa dhiisu; isaan mana fincilaadhaatii.
But when I speak to thee, I will open thy mouth, and thou shalt say to them, Thus saith the Lord, He that hears, let him hear; and he that is disobedient, let him be disobedient: because it is a provoking house.
