Isaayyaas 22
1 Raajii waaʼee Sulula Mulʼataa: Amma maaltu isin rakkisee isin hundi fiixee manaatti ol baatan?
The word about the valley of vision. Why have all your people gone up to the house-tops?
2 Yaa magaalaa wacaan guutamte, yaa magaalaa jeeqamtuu fi fandalaltuu, namoonni si jalaa qalaman goraadeedhaan hin ajjeefamne yookaan waraana keessatti hin dhumne.
You, who are full of loud voices, a town of outcries, given up to joy; your dead men have not been put to the sword, or come to their death in war.
3 Hooggantoonni kee hundi walumaan baqatan; isaan utuma xiyya hin darbatin qabaman. Isin utuma diinni fagoo jiruu baqattan iyyuu warri qabamtan hundi walumaan mana hidhaatti galfamtaniirtu.
All your rulers ... have gone in flight; all your strong ones have gone far away.
4 Kanaafuu ani, “Ana irraa garagalaa; ani hiqqifadhee nan booʼa. Badiisa saba koo irratti na jajjabeessuu hin yaalinaa” nan jedhe.
For this cause I have said, Let your eyes be turned away from me in my bitter weeping; I will not be comforted for the wasting of the daughter of my people.
5 Gooftaan, Waaqayyoon Waan Hunda Dandaʼu, Sulula Mulʼataa keessatti, guyyaa jeequmsaa, dhidhiitamuutii fi burjaajii, akkasumas guyyaa itti dallaa diiguutii fi tulluuwwanittis iyyuu qaba.
For it is a day of trouble and of crushing down and of destruction from the Lord, the Lord of armies, in the valley of vision; ...
6 Eelaam manʼee xiyyaa qabattee gaariiwwanii fi abbootii fardaa fudhattee baati; Qiiris gaachana ishee qabatti.
And Elam was armed with arrows, and Aram came on horseback; and the breastplate of Kir was uncovered.
7 Sululawwan kee filatamoon gaariiwwaniin guutamaniiru; abbootiin fardaas karra magaalattii irratti ramadamaniiru.
And your most fertile valleys were full of war-carriages, and the horsemen took up their positions in front of the town.
8 Gooftaan ittisa Yihuudaa irraa mulqeera. Atis gaafas miʼa lolaa kan Masaraa Bosonaa keessa jiru sana abdatta.
He took away the cover of Judah; and in that day you were looking with care at the store of arms in the house of the woods.
9 Dallaan Magaalaa Daawit karaa baayʼee akka urame argitaniirtu; Haroo Gad aanaa keessattis bishaan kuufattaniirtu.
And you saw all the broken places in the wall of the town of David: and you got together the waters of the lower pool.
10 Isin manneen Yerusaalem lakkooftan; dallaa ishee dhagaa jabeessuuf jettaniis manneen sana diigdan.
And you had the houses of Jerusalem numbered, pulling down the houses to make the wall stronger.
11 Bishaan Haroo Moofaatiif dallaa lamaan gidduutti kuusaa bishaanii tolchitan; garuu isin gara Isa waan sana hojjetee hin ilaalle; yookaan Isa bara dheeraan dura waan sana karoorseef ulfina hin kennine.
And you made a place between the two walls for storing the waters of the old pool: but you gave no thought to him who had done this, and were not looking to him by whom it had been purposed long before.
12 Gooftaan, Waaqayyoon Waan Hunda Dandaʼu, akka ati boossee wawwaattuuf, akka ati rifeensa mataa keetii of irraa cirtee wayyaa gaddaa uffatuuf guyyaa sana si waame.
And in that day the Lord, the Lord of armies, was looking for weeping, and cries of sorrow, cutting off of the hair, and putting on the clothing of grief:
13 Qooda kanaa garuu gammachuu fi fandalaluu, loon gorraʼuu fi hoolota qaluu, foon nyaachuu fi daadhii wayinii dhuguutu jira! Isin, “Kottaa ni nyaannaa; ni dhugnas; bor ni duunaatii!” jettu.
But in place of these there was joy and delight, oxen and sheep were being made ready for food, there was feasting and drinking: men said, Now is the time for food and wine, for tomorrow death comes.
14 Waaqayyoon Waan Hunda Dandaʼu utuma gurri koo dhagaʼuu waan kana naa ibse: “Hamma guyyaa duʼa keessaniitti cubbuun kun isin irraa hin haqamu” jedha Gooftaan, Waaqayyoon Waan Hunda Dandaʼu.
And the Lord of armies said to me secretly, Truly, this sin will not be taken from you till your death, says the Lord, the Lord of armies.
15 Gooftaan, Waaqayyoon Waan Hunda Dandaʼu akkana jedha: “Dhaqiitii itti gaafatamaa kanaan, Shebnaa, bulchaa masaraa mootummaatiin akkana jedhi:
The Lord, the Lord of armies, says, Go to this person in authority, this Shebna, who is over the house; who has made himself a resting-place on high, cutting out a place for himself in the rock, and say,
16 Ati maal asii hojjetta? Akka ati iddoo kanatti iddoo awwaalaa qopheeffattu, akka iddoo ol kaʼaa irratti boolla awwaala keetii qotattu, akka kattaa keessatti iddoo boqonnaa keetii tolchattu eenyutu eeyyama siif kenne?
Who are you, and by what right have you made for yourself a resting-place here?
17 “Yaa nama jabaa kunoo, Waaqayyo jabeessee qabee si darbachuuf jira.
See, O strong man, the Lord will send you violently away, gripping you with force,
18 Inni akkuma kubbaa furuursee biyya balʼaa tokko keessa si buusa. Yaa salphina mana gooftaa keetii, ati achitti duuta; gaariiwwan kee mimmiidhagoonis achitti hafu!
Twisting you round and round like a ball he will send you out into a wide country: there you will come to your end, and there will be the carriages of your pride, O shame of your lord's house!
19 Ani aangoo kee irraa sin buusa; atis taayitaa kee irraa ni ariʼamta.
And I will have you forced out of your place of authority, and pulled down from your position.
20 “Ani gaafas garbicha koo Eliiyaaqiimin ilma Hilqiyaa nan waama.
And in that day I will send for my servant, Eliakim, the son of Hilkiah:
21 Ani uffata kee isatti nan uffisa; sabbata kee mudhii isaatti nan hidha; aangoo kees dabarsee isaaf nan kenna. Inni warra Yerusaalem keessa jiraatanii fi mana Yihuudaatiif abbaa ni taʼa.
And I will put your robe on him, and put your band about him, and I will give your authority into his hand: and he will be a father to the men of Jerusalem, and to the family of Judah.
22 Ani furtuu mana Daawit gatiittii isaa irra nan kaaʼa; waan inni banu namni tokko iyyuu cufuu hin dandaʼu; waan inni cufus namni tokko iyyuu banuu hin dandaʼu.
And I will give the key of the family of David into his care; and what he keeps open will be shut by no one, and what he keeps shut no one will make open.
23 Ani akkuma fannoo waa itti fannisan tokkootti iddoo jabaa irra isa nan dhaaba; innis mana abbaa isaatiif teessoo ulfinaa ni taʼa.
And I will put him like a nail in a safe place; and he will be for a seat of glory to his father's family.
24 Isaanis kabaja mana abbaa isaa hunda, ijoollee isaatii fi ijoollee ijoollee isaa, miʼa xixinnaa kan waciitiidhaa jalqabee hamma okkoteetti jiru hunda isatti fannisu.”
And all the glory of his father's family will be hanging on him, all their offspring, every small vessel, even the cups and the basins.
25 Waaqayyoon Waan Hunda Dandaʼu akkana jedha; “Gaafas qofoon iddoo jabaa dhaabame sun ni buqqaʼa; muramee lafa buʼa; baʼaan isatti fannifame sun harcaʼee caccaba.” Waaqayyo waan kana dubbateeraatii.
In that day, says the Lord of armies, will the nail fixed in a safe place give way; and it will be cut down, and in its fall the weight hanging on it will be cut off, for the Lord has said it.
