< Isaayyaas 2 >

1 Wanni Isaayyaas ilmi Amoos waaʼee Yihuudaatii fi Yerusaalem arge kanaa dha:
This is what Isaiah the son of Amoz saw concerning Judah and Jerusalem.
2 Bara dhumaa keessa, tulluun mana qulqullummaa Waaqayyoo tulluuwwan hunda keessaa ol dheeratee dhaabata; inni tulluuwwan caalaa ol ol jedha; saboonni hundinuu gara isaatti yaaʼu.
It shall happen in the latter days, that the mountain of the LORD’s house shall be established on the top of the mountains, and shall be raised above the hills; and all nations shall flow to it.
3 Namoonni baayʼeen dhufanii akkana jedhu; “Kottaa gara tulluu Waaqayyoo, gara mana Waaqa Yaaqoob ol baanaa. Inni akka nu daandii isaa irra deemnuuf karaa isaa nu barsiisa.” Seerri Xiyoon keessaa, dubbiin Waaqayyoo immoo Yerusaalem keessaa ni baʼa.
Many peoples shall go and say, “Come, let’s go up to the mountain of the LORD, to the house of the God of Jacob; and he will teach us of his ways, and we will walk in his paths.” For the law shall go out of Zion, and the LORD’s word from Jerusalem.
4 Inni saboota gidduutti murtii kenna; namoota hedduudhaafis ni murteessa. Isaan goraadee isaanii tumanii maarashaa tolfatu; eeboo isaaniis tumanii haamtuu tolfatu. Sabni tokko saba biraatti goraadee hin luqqifatu; yookaan lolaaf nama hin leenjifatan.
He will judge between the nations, and will decide concerning many peoples. They shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruning hooks. Nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more.
5 Yaa mana Yaaqoob, kottaa ifa Waaqayyoo keessa deddeebinaa.
House of Jacob, come, and let’s walk in the light of the LORD.
6 Kanaafuu saba kee, mana Yaaqoob dhiifteerta. Isaan bartee Baʼa Biiftuutiin guutamaniiru; akkuma Filisxeemotaa falfala hojjetu; duudhaa namoota ormaattis ni cichu.
For you have forsaken your people, the house of Jacob, because they are filled from the east, with those who practice divination like the Philistines, and they clasp hands with the children of foreigners.
7 Biyyi isaanii meetii fi warqeen guutamteerti; qabeenyi isaanii dhuma hin qabu. Biyyi isaanii fardeeniin guutamteerti; gaariiwwan isaaniis dhuma hin qaban.
Their land is full of silver and gold, neither is there any end of their treasures. Their land also is full of horses, neither is there any end of their chariots.
8 Biyyi isaanii waaqota tolfamoodhaan guutamteerti; isaan hojiidhuma harka isaanii, waanuma qubni isaanii tolcheef sagadu.
Their land also is full of idols. They worship the work of their own hands, that which their own fingers have made.
9 Kanaafuu namni gad qabama; ilmaan namaa gad deebifamu; ati isaaniif hin dhiisin.
Man is brought low, and mankind is humbled; therefore do not forgive them.
10 Argamuu Waaqayyoo isa sodaachisaa fi surraa ulfina isaa duraa, kattaa keessa lixu; lafa keessas dhokadhu!
Enter into the rock, and hide in the dust, from before the terror of the LORD, and from the glory of his majesty.
11 Iji nama of tuuluu gad qabama; of jajuun namootaas gad deebifama; gaafas Waaqayyo qofatu ol ol jedha.
The lofty looks of man will be brought low, the arrogance of men will be bowed down, and the LORD alone will be exalted in that day.
12 Waaqayyoon Waan Hunda Dandaʼu warra of jajuu fi warra of tuulu hundaaf, warra ol ol jedhan hundaaf guyyaa tokko qaba; isaanis gad deebifamu.
For there will be a day of the LORD of Armies for all that is proud and arrogant, and for all that is lifted up, and it shall be brought low—
13 Inni birbirsa Libaanoon dheeraa fi guddaa hundaaf, qilxuu Baashaan hundaaf,
for all the cedars of Lebanon, that are high and lifted up, for all the oaks of Bashan,
14 tulluuwwan ol dhedheeroo hundaaf, gaarran ol dhedheeroo hundaaf,
for all the high mountains, for all the hills that are lifted up,
15 gamoo gurguddaa hundaaf, dallaa dhagaadhaan jabeeffamee ijaarame hundaaf,
for every lofty tower, for every fortified wall,
16 doonii daldalaa hundaa fi waan gatii guddaa qabu hundaaf guyyaa murteeffate tokko qaba.
for all the ships of Tarshish, and for all pleasant imagery.
17 Of tuulummaan namaa gad qabama; of jajuun namootaas gad deebifama; gaafas Waaqayyo qofatu ol ol jedha;
The loftiness of man shall be bowed down, and the arrogance of men shall be brought low; and the LORD alone shall be exalted in that day.
18 waaqonni tolfamoon guutumaan guutuutti ni barbadeeffamu.
The idols shall utterly pass away.
19 Namoonni yommuu inni lafa raasuuf kaʼutti, sodaachisa Waaqayyootii fi surraa isaa ulfina qabeessa sana duraa gara holqa kattaa keessaattii fi boolla lafa keessaatti ni baqatu.
Men shall go into the caves of the rocks, and into the holes of the earth, from before the terror of the LORD, and from the glory of his majesty, when he arises to shake the earth mightily.
20 Gaafas namoonni waaqota isaanii tolfamoo kanneen waaqeffachuuf jedhanii meetii fi warqee irraa tolfatan sana tuqaa fi simbira halkaniitiif darbatu.
In that day, men shall cast away their idols of silver and their idols of gold, which have been made for themselves to worship, to the moles and to the bats,
21 Isaan yommuu inni lafa raasuuf kaʼutti sodaachisa Waaqayyootii fi surraa ulfina isaa duraa gara holqa guddaa kattaawwan keessaatii fi baqaqaa kattaatti ni baqatu.
to go into the caverns of the rocks, and into the clefts of the ragged rocks, from before the terror of the LORD, and from the glory of his majesty, when he arises to shake the earth mightily.
22 Nama duʼa hin oolle, kan hafuurri isaa funyaan irra jiru abdachuu dhiisaa. Inni maalitti lakkaaʼama?
Stop trusting in man, whose breath is in his nostrils; for of what account is he?
