Izraa 9
1 Erga wanni kun hojjetamee booddee hooggantoonni gara koo dhufanii akkana jedhan; “Sabni Israaʼel lubootaa fi Lewwota illee dabalatee saboota ollaa isaanii kanneen hojii jibbisiisaa hojjetan jechuunis Kanaʼaanota, Heetota, Feerzota, Yebuusota, Amoonota, Moʼaabota, warra Gibxii fi Amoorota irraa addaan baʼanii hin jiraanne.
And at the completion of these things, drawn nigh unto me have the heads, saying, 'The people of Israel, and the priests, and the Levites, have not been separated from the peoples of the lands, as to their abominations, even the Canaanite, the Hittite, the Perizzite, the Jebusite, the Ammonite, the Moabite, the Egyptian, and the Amorite,
2 Isaanis intallan jaraa ofii isaaniitiif fuudhanii ilmaan isaaniis fuusisanii sanyii qulqulluu sana saboota naannoo isaaniitti makan. Hooggantoonnii fi qondaaltonnis balleessaa kana hojjechuu keessatti dura aantota turan.”
for they have taken of their daughters to them, and to their sons, and the holy seed have mingled themselves among the peoples of the lands, and the hand of the heads and of the seconds have been first in this trespass.'
3 Ani yeroon waan kana dhagaʼetti qomee koo fi uffata koo nan tarsaasee, rifeensa mataa koo fi areeda koo of irraa buqqisee akka malee rifadheen taaʼe.
And at my hearing this word, I have rent my garment and my upper robe, and pluck out of the hair of my head, and of my beard, and sit astonished,
4 Kana irratti namoonni dubbii Waaqa Israaʼeliin hollatan hundi sababii balleessaa warra boojuudhaa deebiʼan kanaaf naannoo kootti walitti qabaman. Anis akka malee rifadhee hamma aarsaa galgalaatti achuman taaʼe.
and unto me are gathered every one trembling at the words of the God of Israel, because of the trespass of the removal, and I am sitting astonished till the present of the evening.
5 Anis yeroo aarsaa galgalaatti akkuma qomee fi uffanni koo tarsaʼee jirutti lafan gaddee taaʼaa turee kaʼee jilbeenfadhee harka koo gara Waaqayyo Waaqa kootti balʼisee
And at the present of the evening I have risen from mine affliction, and at my rending my garment and my upper robe, then I bow down on my knees, and spread out my hands unto Jehovah my God,
6 akkana jedheen kadhadhe: “Yaa Waaqa ko, sababii cubbuun keenya mataa keenya bira ol darbee yakki keenyas samii gaʼeef, yaa Waaqa koo ani fuula koo gara keetti deebiffachuu akka malee qaanaʼeera; saalfadheeras.
and say, 'O my God, I have been ashamed, and have blushed to lift up, O my God, my face unto Thee, for our iniquities have increased over the head, and our guilt hath become great unto the heavens.
7 Bara abbootii keenyaatii jalqabee hamma ammaatti balleessaan keenya guddaa dha. Sababii cubbuu keenyaaf nu, mootonni keenyaa fi luboonni keenya akkuma harʼaa kana harka mootota ormaa jalatti goraadee fi boojuutti, saamichaa fi salphinatti dabarfamnee kennamneerra.
'From the days of our fathers we [are] in great guilt unto this day, and in our iniquities we have been given — we, our kings, our priests — into the hand of the kings of the lands, with sword, with captivity, and with spoiling, and with shame of face, as [at] this day.
8 “Amma garuu Waaqayyo Waaqni keenya hambaa nuu hambisee iddoo isaa qulqulluu sana keessatti iddoo amansiisaa nuuf kennuudhaan yeroo gabaabaadhaaf garaa nuuf laafeera; akkasiinis Waaqni keenya ija keenyaaf ifa kenneera; garbummaa keenya keessattis xinnoo nu boqochiiseera.
'And now, as a small moment hath grace been from Jehovah our God, to leave to us an escape, and to give to us a nail in His holy place, by our God's enlightening our eyes, and by giving us a little quickening in our servitude;
9 Nu garboota taanu illee Waaqni keenya garbummaa keessatti nu hin ganne. Inni fuula mootota Faares duratti jaalala isaa kan hin geeddaramne sana nu argisiiseera. Inni akka nu mana Waaqa keenyaa deebifnee ijaarruu fi akka diigamaa isaa illee iddootti deebifnuuf jireenya haaraa nuuf kenneera; Yihuudaa fi Yerusaalem keessattis dallaa daʼannoo nuu kenneera.
for servants we [are], and in our servitude our God hath not forsaken us, and stretcheth out unto us kindness before the kings of Persia, to give to us a quickening to lift up the house of our God, and to cause its wastes to cease, and to give to us a wall in Judah and in Jerusalem.
10 “Amma garuu yaa Waaqa keenya nu kana booddee maal jechuu dandeenya? Nu ajaja
'And now, what do we say, O our God, after this? for we have forsaken Thy commands,
11 ati karaa garboota kee raajotaan kennite sanaaf hin ajajamneetii; innis akkana jedha: ‘Biyyi isin dhaaluudhaaf seenuutti jirtan xuraaʼummaa saba biyya sanaan xuroofteerti. Isaan hojii jibbisiisaa isaaniitiin handaara tokkoo hamma handaara kaanitti xuraaʼummaa isaaniitiin biyyattii guutaniiru.
that Thou hast commanded by the hands of thy servants the prophets, saying, The land into which ye are going to possess it, [is] a land of impurity, by the impurity of the people of the lands, by their abominations with which they have filled it — from mouth unto mouth — by their uncleanness;
12 Kanaafuu intallan keessan ilmaan isaanitti hin heerumsiisinaa yookaan ilmaan keessan intallan isaanii hin fuusisinaa. Akka jabaattaniif, akka waan gaarii biyya sanaa nyaattanii biyyatti illee dhaala bara baraa gootanii ijoollee keessanitti dabarsitaniif yoom iyyuu isaan wajjin walii galtee michummaa hin barbaadinaa.’
and now, your daughters ye do not give to their sons, and their daughters ye do not take to your sons, and ye do not seek their peace, and their good — unto the age, so that ye are strong, and have eaten the good of the land, and given possession to your sons unto the age.
13 “Wanni nurra gaʼe kun gatii gochawwan hammina keenyaa fi yakka keenya guddaa sanaa ti; haa taʼuutii ati Waaqni keenya adaba cubbuu keenyaaf maluun gad nu adabdee hambaa akkanaa nuu kenniteerta.
'And after all that hath come upon us for our evil works, and for our great guilt (for Thou, O our God, hast kept back of the rod from our iniquities, and hast given to us an escape like this),
14 Nu amma illee ajaja kee cabsinee saba hojiiwwan jibbisiisoo hojjetu kanaan wal haa fuunuu? Yoos ati akka malee nutti dheekkamtee hamma hambaan tokko iyyuu hin hafnetti nu hin balleessituu ree?
do we turn back to break Thy commands, and to join ourselves in marriage with the people of these abominations? art not Thou angry against us — even to consumption — till there is no remnant and escaped part?
15 Yaa Waaqayyo Waaqa Israaʼel, ati qajeelaa dha! Nu harʼa hambaa taanee jiraanneerra. Tokkoon keenya iyyuu sababii yakka keenyaaf fuula kee dura dhaabachuu dadhabnu illee nu kunoo yakkuma keenya wajjin fuula kee dura jirra.”
'O Jehovah, God of Israel, righteous [art] Thou, for we have been left an escape, as [it is] this day; lo, we [are] before Thee in our guilt, for there is none to stand before Thee concerning this.'
