< Hisqiʼeel 5 >

1 “Yaa ilma namaa, goraadee qara qabu fudhadhuutii akkuma qarabaa ittiin haaddatanitti mataa keetii fi areeda kee ittiin haaddadhu. Rifeensa sanas madaaliidhaan madaaliitii gargar qoodi.
And thou, son of man, take unto thyself a sharp sword, a barber's razor shalt thou take for it unto thyself, and cause it to pass over thy head and over thy beard: then take unto thee balances for weighing, and divide the hair.
2 Yeroo barri marfamuu keetii dhumatutti rifeensa sana keessaa harka sadii keessaa harka tokko magaalattii keessatti ibiddaan gubi. Harka sadii keessaa harka tokko fuudhii magaalattii marsiitii goraadeen cicciri. Harka sadii keessaa harka tokko immoo bubbeetti bittinneessi. Ani goraadee luqqifameen isaanan ariʼaatii.
One third part shalt thou burn with fire in the midst of the city, when the days of the siege are completed; and thou shalt take another third part, and smite [it] round about it with the sword; and the other third part shalt thou scatter to the wind: and I will draw out a sword after the same.
3 Rifeensa sana irraa xinnoo fuudhiitii handaara wayyaa keetiitti guduunfadhu.
And take thence a few in number, and tie them up in the corners of thy garment.
4 Ammas kanneen keessaa xinnoo fuudhiitii ibiddatti naqi; gubis. Ibiddi achii kaʼee guutummaa mana Israaʼel keessa faffacaʼa.
And from these again shalt thou take some, and cast them into the midst of the fire, and burn them in the fire: therefrom shall a fire go forth unto all the house of Israel.
5 “Waaqayyo Gooftaan akkana jedha: Yerusaalem isheen ani biyyoota itti naannessee saboota walakkaa teessise sun ishee kanaa dha.
Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, This is Jerusalem, which I had set it in the midst of the nations and countries that are round about her.
6 Isheenis sabootaa fi biyyoota naannoo ishee jiraatan caalaa hammina isheetiin seera kootii fi ajaja kootti fincilteerti; isheen seera koo gatteerti; ajaja koos duukaa hin buune.
But she rebelled against my ordinances more wickedly than the nations, and against my statutes, more than the countries that are round about her; for my ordinances they have despised, and as for my statutes, they have not walked in them.
7 “Kanaafuu Waaqayyo Gooftaan akkana jedha: Isin saboota naannoo keessan jiraatan caalaa warra hin ajajamne taataniirtu; isin ajaja koo duukaa hin buune yookaan seera koo hin eegne. Isin seera saboonni naannoo keessan jiraatan eegani iyyuu hin eegne.
Therefore thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Because ye have given yourselves up to evil more than the nations that are round about you, have not walked in my statutes, and have not executed my ordinances, and not even acted according to the ordinances of the nations that are round about you:
8 “Kanaafuu Waaqayyo Gooftaan akkana jedha: Yaa Yerusaalem, ani mataan koo sittan kaʼa; fuula sabootaa durattis sin adaba.
Therefore thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Behold, I, also I am against thee, and I will execute judgments in the midst of thee before the eyes of the nations.
9 Ani sababii waaqota kee jibbisiisoo hundaatiif waanan kanaan dura takkumaa godhee hin beekin, waanan siʼachis gonkumaa hin goone sitti nan fida.
And I will do in thee that which I have never done, and the like of which I will never do any more, because of all thy abominations.
10 Kanaafuu si keessatti abbootiin ijoollee isaanii ni nyaatu; ijoolleen immoo abbootii isaanii ni nyaatu. Ani sin adaba; hambaawwan kee hundas bubbeetti nan bittinneessa.
Therefore fathers shall devour their children in the midst of thee, and children shall devour their fathers: and I will execute judgments on thee, and I will scatter all thy remnant unto all the winds.
11 Kanaafuu akkuma ani dhugumaan jiraataa taʼe, jedha Waaqayyo Gooftaan; sababii ati fakkiiwwan kee kanneen faayidaa hin qabne hundaa fi gochawwan kee jibbisiisoo sanaan mana qulqullummaa koo xureessiteef ani fuula koo sirraa nan deebiffadha; ani si hin baraaru yookaan garaa siif hin laafu.
Therefore, as I live, saith the Lord Eternal, Surely, because thou hast made unclean my sanctuary with all thy detestable things, and with all thy abominations: therefore will I also diminish [thee]; and my eye shall not show pity, and I also will not spare.
12 Uummanni kee harka sadii keessaa harki tokko dhaʼichaan duʼa yookaan beelaan si keessatti dhuma; harka sadii keessaa harki tokko dallaa keetiin alatti goraadeedhaan galaafatama; harka sadii keessaa harka tokko immoo anatu bubbeetti bittinneessa; goraadee luqqifameenis ariʼa.
A third part of thee shall die through the pestilence, and come through famine to their end in the midst of thee; and another third part shall fall by the sword round about thee; and the other third part will I scatter unto all the winds, and a sword will I draw out after them.
13 “Ergasii aariin koo narraa gala; dheekkamsi koo kan isaanitti dhufe sun ni qabbanaaʼa; anis haaloo nan baafadha. Yeroo ani dheekkamsa koo isaanitti fidetti isaan akka ani Waaqayyo hinaaffaa kootiin dubbadhe ni beeku.
Thus shall my anger be accomplished, and I will cause my fury to rest upon them, and I will satisfy myself: and they shall know that I the Lord have spoken it in my zeal, when I have let out all my fury on them.
14 “Saboota naannoo kee jiraatan gidduutti fuula warra achiin darban hundaa duratti onaa fi waan fafaa sin godha.
Yea, I will render thee a ruin, and a disgrace among the nations that are round about thee, before the eyes of every one that passeth by.
15 Yeroo ani aariidhaan, dheekkamsaa fi adabbiidhaan si adabutti, ati fuula saboota naannoo kee jiraatanii duratti waan fafaa, waan kolfaa, waan ilaalanii quba itti qabanii fi waan sodaa ni taata. Ani Waaqayyo dubbadheera.
And she shall be a disgrace and a taunt, a warning and an astonishment unto the nations that are round about thee, when I execute judgments on thee in anger and in fury and in furious chastisements, —I the Lord have spoken it, —
16 Ani yeroon xiyya beelaa kan nama ajjeesuu fi nama barbadeessu isinitti darbadhutti isin balleessuuf jedheen darbadha. Ani beela irratti beela isinittin fida; madda nyaata keessaniis nan gogsa.
When I send out among them the dreadful arrows of famine, which [ever] were the cause of destruction, which I will send out to destroy you; and I will increase the famine upon you, and will break unto you the staff of bread:
17 Ani beelaa fi bineensa isinittan erga; isaanis ijoollee malee isin hambisu. Dhaʼichii fi dhangalaafamuun dhiigaa isin haxaaʼa; ani goraadee isinittin fida. Ani Waaqayyo dubbadheera.”
So will I let loose over you famine and wild beasts, and they shall make thee childless; and pestilence and blood shall pass through thee; and the sword will I bring over thee. I the Lord have spoken it.
