< Hisqiʼeel 37 >

1 Harki Waaqayyoo narra ture; innis Hafuura Waaqayyootiin na fuudhee, walakkaa sululaa na dhaabe; sululli sunis lafeewwaniin guutamee ture.
The hand of Yhwh was upon me, and carried me out in the spirit of Yhwh, and set me down in the midst of the valley which 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 caused me to pass by them round about: and, behold, there were very many in the open valley; and, lo, they were very 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 unto me, Son of man, can these bones live? And I answered, O Lord Yhwh, thou knowest.
4 Kana irratti inni akkana naan jedhe; “Lafeewwan kanneenitti raajiitii akkana jedhiin; ‘Yaa lafeewwan goggogoo, dubbii Waaqayyoo dhagaʼaa!
Again he said unto me, Prophesy upon these bones, and say unto them, O ye dry bones, hear the word of Yhwh.
5 Waaqayyo Gooftaan lafeewwan kanneeniin akkana jedha: Ani hafuura isinitti nan galcha; isinis lubbuudhaan ni jiraattu.
Thus saith the Lord Yhwh unto these bones; Behold, I will cause breath to enter into you, and ye 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 bring up flesh upon you, and cover you with skin, and put breath in you, and ye shall live; and ye shall know that I am Yhwh.
7 Kanaafuu ani akkuman ajajametti raajii nan dubbadhe. Utuma ani raajii dubbachaa jiruus sagaleen tokko dhagaʼame; lafeewwanis walitti dhufan; lafeenis lafeetti maxxane.
So I prophesied as I was commanded: and as I prophesied, there was a noise, and behold a shaking, and the bones came together, bone to his bone.
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 when I beheld, lo, the sinews and the flesh came up upon them, and the skin covered them above: but there was no breath 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.’”
Then said he unto me, Prophesy unto the wind, prophesy, son of man, and say to the wind, Thus saith the Lord Yhwh; Come from the four winds, O breath, and breathe upon these slain, that they may live.
10 Kanaafuu ani akkuma inni na ajajetti raajii nan dubbadhe; hafuurris isaanitti gale; isaanis lubbuu horatanii miilla isaaniitiin kaʼanii dhadhaabatan; isaanis raayyaa guddaa turan.
So I prophesied as he commanded me, and the breath came into them, and they lived, and 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.
Then he said unto me, Son of man, these bones are the whole house of Israel: behold, they say, Our bones are dried, and our hope is lost: we are cut off for our parts.
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 unto them, Thus saith the Lord Yhwh; Behold, O my people, I will open your graves, and cause you to come up out of your graves, and 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 ye shall know that I am Yhwh, when I have opened your graves, O my people, and brought you up out of your graves,
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 put my spirit in you, and ye shall live, and I shall place you in your own land: then shall ye know that I Yhwh have spoken it, and performed it, saith Yhwh.
15 Ergasii dubbiin Waaqayyoo akkana jedhee gara koo dhufe;
The word of Yhwh came again unto 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.
Moreover, thou son of man, take thee one stick, and write upon it, For Judah, and for the children of Israel his companions: then take another stick, and write upon it, For Joseph, the stick of Ephraim, and for all the house of Israel his companions:
17 Akka isaan harka kee keessatti tokko taʼaniif uleewwan sana walitti qabsiis.
And join them one to another into one stick; and they shall become one in thine 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 unto thee, saying, Wilt thou not shew us what thou meanest by these?
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 unto them, Thus saith the Lord Yhwh; Behold, I will take the stick of Joseph, which is in the hand of Ephraim, and the tribes of Israel his fellows, and will put them with him, even with the stick of Judah, and make them one stick, and they shall be one in mine hand.
20 Fuula isaanii durattis uleewwan isaan irratti barreessite sana harkatti qabadhuutii
And the sticks whereon thou writest shall be in thine 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 say unto them, Thus saith the Lord Yhwh; Behold, I will take the children of Israel from among the heathen, whither they be gone, and will gather them on every side, and bring them into 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 upon the mountains of Israel; and one king shall be king to them all: and they shall be no more two nations, neither shall they be divided into two kingdoms any more at all:
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.
Neither shall they defile themselves any more with their idols, nor with their detestable things, nor with any of their transgressions: but I will save them out of all their dwellingplaces, wherein they have sinned, and will cleanse them: so shall they 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 David my servant shall be king over them; and they all shall have one shepherd: they shall also walk in my judgments, and observe my statutes, and 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 that I have given unto Jacob my servant, wherein your fathers have dwelt; and they shall dwell therein, even they, and their children, and their children’s children for ever: and my servant David 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.
Moreover I will make a covenant of peace with them; it shall be an everlasting covenant with them: and I will place them, and multiply them, and will set my sanctuary in the midst of them for evermore.
27 Iddoon jireenya koo isaan bira taʼa; ani Waaqa isaanii nan taʼa; isaanis saba koo ni taʼu.
My tabernacle also shall be with them: yea, 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 heathen shall know that I Yhwh do sanctify Israel, when my sanctuary shall be in the midst of them for evermore.
