< Isaayyaas 22 >

1 Raajii waaʼee Sulula Mulʼataa: Amma maaltu isin rakkisee isin hundi fiixee manaatti ol baatan?
A declaration about the Valley of Vision: What is the reason that you have all gone up to the housetops?
2 Yaa magaalaa wacaan guutamte, yaa magaalaa jeeqamtuu fi fandalaltuu, namoonni si jalaa qalaman goraadeedhaan hin ajjeefamne yookaan waraana keessatti hin dhumne.
Is it so you may hear a city full of noises, a town full of revelry? Your dead were not killed with the sword, and they did not die in battle.
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 fled away together, but they were captured without using a bow; all of them were captured together, though they had fled far away.
4 Kanaafuu ani, “Ana irraa garagalaa; ani hiqqifadhee nan booʼa. Badiisa saba koo irratti na jajjabeessuu hin yaalinaa” nan jedhe.
Therefore I said, “Do not look at me, I will weep bitterly; do not try to comfort me concerning the destruction 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 there is a day of tumult, treading down, and confusion for the Lord Yahweh of hosts, in the Valley of Vision, a breaking down of the walls, and people crying out to the mountains.
6 Eelaam manʼee xiyyaa qabattee gaariiwwanii fi abbootii fardaa fudhattee baati; Qiiris gaachana ishee qabatti.
Elam takes up the quiver, with chariots of men and horsemen, and Kir lays the shield bare.
7 Sululawwan kee filatamoon gaariiwwaniin guutamaniiru; abbootiin fardaas karra magaalattii irratti ramadamaniiru.
It will come about that your choicest valleys will be full of chariots, and the horsemen will take their positions at the gate.
8 Gooftaan ittisa Yihuudaa irraa mulqeera. Atis gaafas miʼa lolaa kan Masaraa Bosonaa keessa jiru sana abdatta.
He took away the protection of Judah; and you looked in that day to the weapons in the Palace of the Forest.
9 Dallaan Magaalaa Daawit karaa baayʼee akka urame argitaniirtu; Haroo Gad aanaa keessattis bishaan kuufattaniirtu.
You saw the breaches of the city of David, that they were many, and you collected the water of the lower pool.
10 Isin manneen Yerusaalem lakkooftan; dallaa ishee dhagaa jabeessuuf jettaniis manneen sana diigdan.
You counted the houses of Jerusalem, and you tore down the houses to fortify the wall.
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.
You made a reservoir between the two walls for the water of the old pool. But you did not consider the city's maker, who had planned it long ago.
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.
The Lord Yahweh of hosts called on that day for weeping, for mourning, for shaved heads, and the wearing of sackcloth.
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 look, instead, celebration and gladness, killing cattle and slaughtering sheep, eating meat and drinking wine; let us eat and drink, for tomorrow we will die.
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.
This was revealed in my ears by Yahweh of hosts: “Surely this iniquity will not be forgiven you, even when you die,” says the Lord Yahweh of hosts.
15 Gooftaan, Waaqayyoon Waan Hunda Dandaʼu akkana jedha: “Dhaqiitii itti gaafatamaa kanaan, Shebnaa, bulchaa masaraa mootummaatiin akkana jedhi:
The Lord Yahweh of hosts, says this, “Go to this administrator, to Shebna, who is over the house, 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?
'What are you doing here and who gave you permission to cut out a tomb for yourself, hewing out a grave on the heights and carving out a resting place in the rock?'”
17 “Yaa nama jabaa kunoo, Waaqayyo jabeessee qabee si darbachuuf jira.
See, Yahweh is about to throw you, a mighty man, about to throw you down; he will grasp you tightly.
18 Inni akkuma kubbaa furuursee biyya balʼaa tokko keessa si buusa. Yaa salphina mana gooftaa keetii, ati achitti duuta; gaariiwwan kee mimmiidhagoonis achitti hafu!
He will surely wind you round and round, and toss you like a ball into a vast country. There you will die, and there your glorious chariots will be; you will be the shame of your master's house!
19 Ani aangoo kee irraa sin buusa; atis taayitaa kee irraa ni ariʼamta.
“I will thrust you from your office and from your station. You will be pulled down.
20 “Ani gaafas garbicha koo Eliiyaaqiimin ilma Hilqiyaa nan waama.
It will come about on that day that I will call my servant Eliakim 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.
I will clothe him with your tunic and put on him your sash, and I will transfer your authority into his hand. He will be a father to the inhabitants of Jerusalem and to the house 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.
I will place the key of the house of David on his shoulder; he will open, and none will shut; he will shut, and none will open.
23 Ani akkuma fannoo waa itti fannisan tokkootti iddoo jabaa irra isa nan dhaaba; innis mana abbaa isaatiif teessoo ulfinaa ni taʼa.
I will fasten him, a peg in a secure place, and he will become a seat of glory for his father's house.
24 Isaanis kabaja mana abbaa isaa hunda, ijoollee isaatii fi ijoollee ijoollee isaa, miʼa xixinnaa kan waciitiidhaa jalqabee hamma okkoteetti jiru hunda isatti fannisu.”
They will hang on him all the glory of his father's house, the offspring and descendants, every small container from the cups to all the jugs.
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.
On that day—this is the declaration of Yahweh of hosts—the peg driven in a firm place will give way, break off, and fall, and the weight that was on it will be cut off—for Yahweh has spoken.
