Hisqiʼeel 37
1 Harki Waaqayyoo narra ture; innis Hafuura Waaqayyootiin na fuudhee, walakkaa sululaa na dhaabe; sululli sunis lafeewwaniin guutamee ture.
The hand of the Lord was upon me, and brought me forth in the spirit of the Lord: and set me down in the midst of a plain that was full of bones.
2 Isaan gidduus asii fi achi na deddeebise; anis lafeewwan akka malee baayʼee kanneen akka malee goggogan lafa sululaa irratti nan arge.
And he led me about through them on every side: now they were very many upon the face of the plain, and they were exceeding dry.
3 Innis, “Yaa ilma namaa, lafeewwan kunneen jiraachuu dandaʼuu?” jedhee na gaafate. Ani immoo, “Yaa Waaqayyo Gooftaa, si qofatu beeka” nan jedhe.
And he said to me: Son of man, dost thou think these bones shall live? And I answered: O Lord God, thou knowest.
4 Kana irratti inni akkana naan jedhe; “Lafeewwan kanneenitti raajiitii akkana jedhiin; ‘Yaa lafeewwan goggogoo, dubbii Waaqayyoo dhagaʼaa!
And he said to me: Prophesy concerning these bones; and say to them: Ye dry bones, hear the word of the Lord.
5 Waaqayyo Gooftaan lafeewwan kanneeniin akkana jedha: Ani hafuura isinitti nan galcha; isinis lubbuudhaan ni jiraattu.
Thus saith the Lord God to these bones: Behold, I will send spirit into you, and you shall live.
6 Ribuu isinitti nan baasa; akka foon isinitti baʼu nan godha; gogaas isinitti nan uffisa; hafuuras isin keessa nan kaaʼa; isinis lubbuudhaan ni jiraattu. Ergasii isin akka ani Waaqayyo taʼe ni beektu.’”
And I will lay sinews upon you, and will cause flesh to grow over you, and will cover you with skin: and I will give you spirit and you shall live, and you shall know that I am the Lord.
7 Kanaafuu ani akkuman ajajametti raajii nan dubbadhe. Utuma ani raajii dubbachaa jiruus sagaleen tokko dhagaʼame; lafeewwanis walitti dhufan; lafeenis lafeetti maxxane.
And I prophesied as he had commanded me: and as I prophesied there was a noise, and behold a commotion: and the bones came together, each one to its joint.
8 Yeroo ani isaan ilaaletti, kunoo ribuun isaanitti baʼee ture; foonis isaan irra ture; gogaas uffatanii turan; hafuurri garuu isaan keessa hin jiru ture.
And I saw, and behold the sinews, and the flesh came up upon them: and the skin was stretched out over them, but there was no spirit in them.
9 Ergasii inni akkana naan jedhe; “Yaa ilma namaa, bubbeetti raajii dubbadhu; akkanas jedhiin; ‘Waaqayyo Gooftaan akkana jedha: Yaa bubbee, bubbeewwan afran irraa kottu; akka isaan lubbuudhaan jiraataniif warra gorraʼaman kanneenitti bubbisi.’”
And he said to me: Prophesy to the spirit, prophesy, O son of man, and say to the spirit: Thus saith the Lord God: Come, spirit, from the four winds, and blow upon these slain, and let them live again.
10 Kanaafuu ani akkuma inni na ajajetti raajii nan dubbadhe; hafuurris isaanitti gale; isaanis lubbuu horatanii miilla isaaniitiin kaʼanii dhadhaabatan; isaanis raayyaa guddaa turan.
And I prophesied as he had commanded me: and the spirit came into them, and they lived: and they stood up upon their feet, an exceeding great army.
11 Innis akkana naan jedhe: “Yaa ilma namaa, lafeewwan kunneen guutummaa mana Israaʼeli. Jarris, ‘Lafeewwan keenya goggoganiiru; nu abdii hin qabnu; cinneerras’ jedhu.
And he said to me: Son of man: All these bones are the house of Israel: they say: Our bones are dried up, and our hope is lost, and we are cut off.
12 Kanaafuu raajii dubbadhuuttii akkana isaaniin jedhi: ‘Waaqayyo Gooftaan akkana jedha: Yaa saba koo ani awwaala kee banee isa keessaa sin baasa; ani biyya Israaʼelitti deebisee sin fida.
Therefore prophesy, and say to them: Thus saith the Lord God: Behold I will open your graves, and will bring you out of your sepulchres, O my people: and will bring you into the land of Israel.
13 Isinis yaa saba ko, yeroo ani awwaala keessan banee isa keessaa isin baasutti, akka ani Waaqayyo taʼe ni beektu.
And you shall know that I am the Lord, when I shall have opened your sepulchres, and shall have brought you out of your graves, O my people:
14 Ani Hafuura koo isin keessa nan kaaʼa; isinis lubbuudhaan jiraattu; ani biyyuma keessan keessa isinan qubachiisa. Ergasii isin akka ani Waaqayyo dubbadhee hojjedhe ni beektu, jedha Waaqayyo.’”
And shall have put my spirit in you, and you shall live, and I shall make you rest upon your own land: and you shall know that I the Lord have spoken, and done it, saith the Lord God:
15 Ergasii dubbiin Waaqayyoo akkana jedhee gara koo dhufe;
And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
16 “Yaa ilma namaa, ulee mukaa tokko fuudhiitii, ‘Kan Yihuudaatii fi kan Israaʼeloota isa wajjin tumsanii’ jedhii isa irratti barreessi. Ulee mukaa kan biraas fuudhiitii, ‘Ulee Efreem, kan Yoosefii fi kan guutummaa mana Israaʼel kanneen isa wajjin tumsanii’ jedhii isa irratti barreessi.
And thou son of man, take thee a stick: and write upon it: Of Juda, and of the children of Israel his associates: and take another stick and write upon it: For Joseph the stick of Ephraim, and for all the house of Israel, and of his associates.
17 Akka isaan harka kee keessatti tokko taʼaniif uleewwan sana walitti qabsiis.
And join them one to the other into one stick, and they shall become one in thy hand.
18 “Yommuu namoonni biyya keetii, ‘Kun maal jechuu kee akka taʼe nutti hin himtuu?’ jedhanii si gaafatanitti,
And when the children of thy people shall speak to thee, saying: Wilt thou not tell us what thou meanest by this?
19 akkana isaaniin jedhi; ‘Waaqayyo Gooftaan akkana jedha: Ani ulee Yoosef kan harka Efreem jiru kan gosoota Israaʼel kanneen isa wajjin tumsanii, ulee Yihuudaa wajjin walitti qabsiisee ulee mukaa tokko nan godha; isaanis harka koo keessatti tokko ni taʼu.’
Say to them: Thus saith the Lord God: Behold, I will take the stick of Joseph, which is in the hand of Ephraim, and the tribes of Israel that are associated with him, and I will put them together with the stick of Juda, and will make them one stick: and they shall be one in his hand.
20 Fuula isaanii durattis uleewwan isaan irratti barreessite sana harkatti qabadhuutii
And the sticks whereon thou hast written, shall be in thy hand, before their eyes.
21 akkana isaaniin jedhi; ‘Waaqayyo Gooftaan akkana jedha: Ani saboota isaan keessa turan keessaa Israaʼeloota nan baasa. Qixa hundaa walitti isaan qabee biyya isaaniitti isaan nan galcha.
And thou shalt say to them: Thus saith the Lord God: Behold, I will take the children of Israel from the midst of the nations whither they are gone: and I will gather them on every side, and will bring them to their own land.
22 Ani tulluuwwan Israaʼel irratti, biyyattii keessatti saba tokko isaan nan godha. Isaan hunda irratti mootii tokkotu moʼa; isaanis gonkumaa deebiʼanii saboota lama hin taʼan yookaan mootummaan isaanii iddoo lamatti hin qoodamu.
And I will make them one nation in the land on the mountains of Israel, and one king shall be king over them all: and they shall no more be two nations, neither shall they be divided any more into two kingdoms.
23 Isaan siʼachi waaqota isaanii tolfamoodhaa fi fakkiiwwan faayidaa hin qabneen yookaan balleessaa isaanii kamiin iyyuu of hin xureessan; ani cubbuudhaan dugda duubatti mucucaachuu isaanii hunda irraa deebisee isaan nan qulqulleessaatii. Isaan saba koo ni taʼu; anis Waaqa isaanii nan taʼa.
Nor shall they be defiled any more with their idols, nor with their abominations, nor with all their iniquities: and I will save them out of all the places in which they have sinned, and I will cleanse them: and they shall be my people, and I will be their God.
24 “‘Daawit garbichi koo isaan irratti mootii ni taʼa; isaan hundis tiksitee tokko ni qabaatu. Isaan seera koo duukaa ni buʼu; sirna koos of eeggannaadhaan ni eegu.
And my servant David shall be king over them, and they shall have one shepherd: they shall walk in my judgments, and shall keep my commandments, and shall do them.
25 Isaan biyya abbootiin keessan jiraatan, biyya ani Yaaqoobiif kenne keessa ni jiraatu. Isaanii fi ijoolleen isaanii, ijoolleen ijoollee isaaniis bara baraan achi ni jiraatu; Daawit garbichi koos bara baraan bulchaa isaanii ni taʼa.
And they shall dwell in the land which I gave to my servant Jacob, wherein your fathers dwelt, and they shall dwell in it, they and their children, and their children’s children, for ever: and David my servant shall be their prince for ever.
26 Ani isaan wajjin kakuu nagaa nan seena; kakuun kunis kakuu bara baraa ni taʼa. Ani jabeessee isaan nan dhaaba; lakkoobsa isaaniis nan baayʼisa; gidduu isaaniittis iddoo qulqulluu koo bara baraan nan dhaaba.
And I will make a covenant of peace with them, it shall be an everlasting covenant with them: and I will establish them, and will multiply them, and will set my sanctuary in the midst of them for ever.
27 Iddoon jireenya koo isaan bira taʼa; ani Waaqa isaanii nan taʼa; isaanis saba koo ni taʼu.
And my tabernacle shall be with them: and I will be their God, and they shall be my people.
28 Ergasii yommuu iddoon qulqulluun koo bara baraan isaan gidduu jiraatutti, akka ani Waaqayyo Israaʼelin qulqulleessu saboonni ni beeku.’”
And the nations shall know that I am the Lord the sanctifier of Israel, when my sanctuary shall be in the midst of them for ever.
