Hisqiʼeel 7
1 Ergasii dubbiin Waaqayyoo akkana jedhee gara koo dhufe:
And the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,
2 “Yaa ilma namaa, Waaqayyo Gooftaan biyya Israaʼeliin akkana jedha: “‘Dhuma! Golee biyyattii afranitti dhumni dhufeera.
And thou, son of man, thus hath said the Lord Eternal concerning the land of Israel, There is an end! the end is coming over the four corners of the land.
3 Ammas dhumni kee gaʼeera; dheekkamsa koo sirratti nan dhangalaasa; ani akkuma amala keetiitti sitti nan mura; gochawwan kee jibbisiisoo hundaafis ani sin adaba.
Now cometh the end over thee, and I will let loose my anger against thee, and will judge thee according to thy ways, and I will lay upon thee all thy abominations.
4 Ani gara laafinaan si hin ilaalu yookaan si hin baasu; ani hamma gochawwan kee jibbisiisoon sun si gidduu jiranitti, amala keetiif sin adaba. “‘Ergasiis isin akka ani Waaqayyo taʼe ni beektu.’
And my eye shall not show pity upon thee, and I will not spare thee; for thy own ways will I lay upon thee, and thy abominations shall come in the midst of thee: and ye shall know that I am the Lord.
5 “Waaqayyo Gooftaan akkana jedha: “‘Badii! Badiin takkaa hin dhagaʼamin tokko dhufaa jira.
Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, An evil, a peculiar evil, behold, is coming.
6 Dhumni dhufeera! Dhumni dhufeera! Inni mataan isaa isinitti kaʼeera. Inni dhufeera!
An end is coming, there is coming the end: it waketh up against thee; behold, [the evil] cometh.
7 Yaa warra biyyattii keessa jiraattan, badiin isinitti dhufeera. Yeroon gaʼeera; guyyaan dhiʼaateera; tulluuwwan irratti gammachuu utuu hin taʼin jeequmsatu taʼa.
The evil decree is come against thee, O thou inhabitant of the land: the time is come, near is the day of tumult, and not the joyful call on the mountains.
8 Ani dheekkamsa koo sitti dhangalaasuudhaafan jira; aarii koo illee sitti nan baʼa; akkuma amala keetiittis sitti nan mura; gochaawwan kee jibbisiisoo sana hundaafis sin adaba.
Now will I in a short time pour out my fury over thee, and I will let out all my anger against thee, and I will judge thee according to thy ways, and I will lay upon thee all thy abominations.
9 Ani gara laafinaan si hin ilaalu yookaan si hin baraaru. Hamma gochawwan kee jibbisiisoon sun si gidduu jiranitti ani akkuma amala keetiitti sin adaba. “‘Ergasiis akka kan rukutu sun ana Waaqayyo taʼe isin ni beektu.
And my eye shall not show pity, and I will not spare: according to thy ways will I lay [evil] on thee, and thy abominations shall come in the midst of thee: and ye shall know that I am the Lord that smiteth.
10 “‘Guyyaan sun kunoo ti! Inni dhufeera! Badiin cabsee dhufeera; uleen lateera; of tuulummaan daraareera!
Behold the day, behold, it is coming; the evil decree is gone forth; the staff hath blossomed, presumption hath budded;
11 Gooliin guddatee ulee hammina adabu taʼeera; isaan keessaa namni tokko iyyuu hin hafu; waldaa isaanii keessaa, qabeenya isaaniitii fi waan faayidaa qabu keessaa tokko iyyuu hin hafu.
The violence is grown up into the staff of wickedness: nothing is left of them, and nothing of their multitude, and nothing of theirs; and there shall be no lamenting for them.
12 Yeroon sun dhufeera; guyyaan sun gaʼeera. Inni bitu hin gammadin; kan gurgurus hin gaddin; dheekkamsi guutummaa isaaniitti dhufaatii.
The time is coming, the day occurreth; let the buyer not rejoice, and let the seller not mourn; for wrath is against all her multitude.
13 Hamma lamaan isaanii iyyuu lubbuun jiranitti inni lafa gurgure hin deebifatu; mulʼanni waaʼee sabaatiif mulʼate duubatti hin deebiʼuutii. Sababii cubbuu isaaniitiif isaan keessaa namni tokko iyyuu lubbuu ofii isaa hin oolfatu.
For the seller shall not return to that which is sold, although their soul were yet alive; for the vision is against all her multitude; no one shall return; but the soul of every one is fastened to his iniquity, they do not strengthen themselves [to repent].
14 “‘Sababii dheekkamsi koo waldaa hunda irra jiruuf isaan malakata afuufanii waan hunda qopheeffatan iyyuu, namni tokko iyyuu gara adda waraanaa hin dhaqu.
They have blown the cornet, every one maketh himself ready; but no one goeth to the battle; for my wrath is against all her multitude.
15 Alaan goraadeetu jira; keessaan immoo dhaʼichaa fi beelatu jira; warri baadiyyaa goraadeedhaan duʼu; warri magaalaa keessaa immoo beelaa fi dhaʼichaan dhumu.
The sword is without, and the pestilence and the famine are within: he that is in the field shall die by the sword; and he that is in the city, him shall famine and pestilence devour.
16 Baqattoonni warri miliqan tulluuwwanitti baqatu. Tokkoon tokkoon isaanii akkuma gugeewwan sululaa sababii cubbuu isaaniitiif ni aadu.
But they that escape of them shall escape, and they shall be on the mountains like the doves of the valleys, all of which are moaning, every one in his iniquity.
17 Harki hundi ni naafata; jilbi hundinuus bishaan taʼa.
All hands become feeble, and all knees go into water.
18 Isaan wayyaa gaddaa uffatanii sodaadhaan haguugamu. Fuulli isaanii qaanii uffata; mataan isaaniis ni haadama.
And people gird themselves with sackcloth, and shuddering covereth them: and upon all faces there is shame, and upon all their heads there is baldness.
19 “‘Isaan meetii isaanii daandiiwwan irratti gatu; warqeen isaanii akka waan xuraaʼaa taʼa. Guyyaa dheekkamsa Waaqayyootti meetii fi warqeen isaanii isaan oolchuu hin dandaʼu. Isaan nyaatanii beela hin baʼan yookaan garaa isaanii hin guuttatan; meetii fi warqeen isaanii isaan gufachiisee cubbuutti isaan galcheeraatii.
Their silver shall they cast into the streets, and their gold shall be as though it were unclean: their silver and their gold shall not be able to deliver them on the day of the wrath of the Lord; they shall not satisfy their souls, and not fill their bowels; because it was the stumbling-block for their iniquity.
20 Isaan faaya bareedaa isaaniitiin of tuulanii waaqota isaanii jibbisiisoo fi fakkiiwwan faayidaa hin qabne sana tolchuuf itti fayyadaman. Kanaafuu ani wantoota kanneen gara waan xuraaʼaatti isaan duraa nan geeddara.
And as for the beauty of his ornament, which he had instituted for [their] pride: even therein did they make the images of their abominations, their detestable things; therefore have I rendered it unclean for them.
21 Ani harka namoota biyya ormaatti boojuudhaaf, hamoota lafaattis saamichaaf dabarsee ishee nan kenna; isaanis isa ni xureessu.
And I will give it up into the hands of the strangers for a prey, and to the wicked of the earth for a spoil: and they shall pollute it.
22 Ani fuula koo isaan irraa nan deebifadha; isaanis iddoo koo jaallatamaa sana ni xureessu; saamtonnis itti seenanii ni xureessu.
And I will turn away my face from them, and they shall pollute my place where I dwelt in secret; and therein shall barbarians enter and pollute it.
23 “‘Sababii biyyattiin dhiiga dhangalaasuudhaan, magaalattiin immoo gooliidhaan guutamteef foncaa qopheessi.
Make chains; for the land is full of blood-guiltiness, and the city is full of violence.
24 Ani akka isaan manneen isaanii dhaalaniif warra saboota keessaa akka malee hamoo taʼan nan fida; of tuulummaa namoota jajjaboo nan cabsa; manneen qulqullummaa isaaniis nan xureessa.
Therefore will I bring the worst of nations, and they shall take possession of their houses: I will also cause the pride of the mighty to cease; and their holy places shall be polluted.
25 Yeroo raafamni dhufutti isaan nagaa barbaadu; garuu tokko illee hin argatan.
Destruction cometh: and they will seek peace, but there shall be none.
26 Badiin badii irratti, oduunis, oduu irratti ni dhufa. Isaan raajii irraa mulʼata argachuu ni yaalu; seerri luboota biraa, gorsi immoo maanguddoota biraa ni dhabama.
Mishap shall come upon mishap, and report shall be spread upon report: and then will they seek a vision from the prophet; but the law shall be lost from the priest, and counsel from the ancients.
27 Mootiin ni booʼa; ilmi mootii abdii kutata; harki uummata biyyattii ni hollata. Ani akkuma hojii isaaniitti gatii isaanii nan kennaaf; akkuma seera ofii isaaniittis murtii nan kennaaf. “‘Ergasiis isaan akka ani Waaqayyo taʼe ni beeku.’”
The king shall mourn, and the prince shall be clothed with distress, and the hands of the people of the land shall be powerless: after their way will I do unto them, and according to their own manners will I judge them; and they shall know that I am the Lord.
