Isaayyaas 16
1 Seelaa, gammoojjii gama jirtu sana irraa bulchaa biyyattiitiif, gara tulluu Intala Xiyoonitti xobbaallaawwan hoolaa gibira ergaa.
Send ye the lambs for the ruler of the land from the crags that are toward the wilderness, unto the mount of the daughter of Zion.
2 Akkuma simbira manʼee ishee keessaa ariʼamtee asii fi achi fiigduu dubartoonni Moʼaabis malkaa laga Arnoonitti akkasuma taʼu.
For it shall be that, as wandering birds, as a scattered nest, so shall the daughters of Moab be at the fords of Arnon.
3 “Gorsa nuuf kennaa; murtii murteessaa. Guyyaa saafaadhaan gaaddidduu keessan akkuma halkanii dukkaneessaa. Baqattootas dhoksaa; kooluu galtoota hin ganinaa.
'Give counsel, execute justice; make thy shadow as the night in the midst of the noonday; hide the outcasts; betray not the fugitive.
4 Baqattoonni Moʼaab isin wajjin haa jiraatan; balleessituu irraa daʼoo isaaniif taʼaa.” Cunqursaan ni bada; badiisnis ni hafa; warri nama miidhan lafa irraa badu.
Let mine outcasts dwell with thee; as for Moab, be thou a covert to him from the face of the spoiler.' For the extortion is at an end, spoiling ceaseth, they that trampled down are consumed out of the land;
5 Teessoon jaalalaan hundeeffama; mana Daawit keessaa namni murtii kennuu irratti murtii qajeelaa barbaadu, kan waan qajeelaa hojjechuuf ariifatu tokko amanamummaadhaan teessoo sana irra ni taaʼa.
And a throne is established through mercy, and there sitteth thereon in truth, in the tent of David, one that judgeth, and seeketh justice, and is ready in righteousness.
6 Nu of tuulummaa Moʼaab, of guddisuu fi kooruu ishee, of tuuluu fi addaggee taʼuu ishee dhageenyeerra; of jajuun ishee garuu faayidaa hin qabu.
We have heard of the pride of Moab; he is very proud; even of his haughtiness, and his pride, and his arrogancy, his ill-founded boastings.
7 Kanaafuu Moʼaabonni ni booʼu; isaan tokkummaadhaan Moʼaabiif booʼu. Namoota Qiir Hareeshetiif faarsanii booʼuudhaan gaddu.
Therefore shall Moab wail for Moab, every one shall wail; for the sweet cakes of Kir-hareseth shall ye mourn, sorely stricken.
8 Lafti qotiisaa Heshboon, mukni wayinii Sibimaas coollageera. Bulchitoonni sabootaa mukkeen wayinii filatamoo kanneen duraan Yaʼizeerin gaʼanii gara gammoojjiitti babalʼatan dhidhiitaniiru. Lataan isaanii dheeratee hamma galaanaatti diriire.
For the fields of Heshbon languish, and the vine of Sibmah, whose choice plants did overcome the lords of nations; they reached even unto Jazer, they wandered into the wilderness; her branches were spread abroad, they passed over the sea.
9 Kanaafuu ani akkuma Yaʼizeer boosse sana, mukkeen wayinii Sibimaatiif nan booʼa. Yaa Heshboon, yaa Eleʼaalee, ani imimmaan kootiin sin jiisa! Ililleen yeroo midhaan siif gaʼeetii fi gammachuun yeroo midhaan siif haamamu ture sun hafeera.
Therefore I will weep with the weeping of Jazer for the vine of Sibmah; I will water thee with my tears, O Heshbon, and Elealeh; for upon thy summer fruits and upon thy harvest the battle shout is fallen.
10 Ililchuu fi gammaduun iddoo biqiltuu keessaa badaniiru; namni tokko iyyuu iddoo dhaabaa wayinii keessatti hin faarfatu yookaan hin ililchu: sababii ani ilillee balleesseef namni iddoo wayinii itti cuunfanitti wayinii dhidhiitu tokko hin jiru.
And gladness and joy are taken away out of the fruitful field; and in the vineyards there shall be no singing, neither shall there be shouting; no treader shall tread out wine in the presses; I have made the vintage shout to cease.
11 Garaan koo akkuma baganaa faarsee Moʼaabiif booʼa; keessi koos Qiir Hareeshetiif booʼa.
Wherefore my heart moaneth like a harp for Moab, and mine inward parts for Kir-heres.
12 Moʼaab yoo iddoo ol kaʼaatti mulʼatte, isheen ofuma dadhabsiifti; yoo kadhannaaf gara iddoo qulqulluu ishee dhaqxe kunis faayidaa tokko illee hin qabu.
And it shall come to pass, when it is seen that Moab hath wearied himself upon the high place, that he shall come to his sanctuary to pray; but he shall not prevail
13 Kun dubbii Waaqayyo duraanuu waaʼee Moʼaab dubbatee dha.
This is the word that the LORD spoke concerning Moab in time past.
14 Waaqayyo garuu amma akkana jedha: “Waggaa sadii keessatti, ulfinni Moʼaabii fi namoonni ishee hedduun hundi akkuma hojjetaan tokko guyyaa isaa lakkaaʼatu sana ni tuffatamu; kanneen hafanis akka malee muraasaa fi dadhaboo taʼu.”
But now the LORD hath spoken, saying: 'Within three years, as the years of a hireling, and the glory of Moab shall wax contemptible for all his great multitude; and the remnant shall be very small and without strength.'
