Isaayyaas 24
1 Kunoo, Waaqayyo lafa ni onsa; ishees ni barbadeessa; inni ishee gaggaragalchee warra ishee irra jiraatan bittinneessa;
Behold, Jehovah makes the earth empty, and makes it waste, and turns it upside down, and scatters abroad the inhabitants of it.
2 Kan saba irra gaʼu luba irra, kan garbicha irra gaʼu gooftaa irra, kan garbittii irra gaʼu giiftii irra, kan bitataa irra gaʼu gurgurataa irra, kan isa ergifatu irra gaʼu, isa ergisu irra, kan liqeeffataa irra gaʼu, isa liqeessu ni gaʼaatii.
And it shall be, as with the people, so with the priest, as with the servant, so with his master, as with the maid, so with her mistress, as with the buyer, so with the seller, as with the creditor, so with the debtor, as with the taker of interest, so with the giver of interest to him.
3 Lafti guutumaan guutuutti ni onti; guutumaan guutuuttis ni saamamti. Waaqayyo waan kana dubbateeraatii.
The earth shall be utterly emptied, and utterly laid waste, for Jehovah has spoken this word.
4 Lafti ni gogdi; bifti ishees ni geeddarama; addunyaan ni bututti; bifti ishees ni geeddarama; gurguddoonni saba lafaas ni bututu.
The earth mourns and fades away. The world languishes and fades away. The lofty people of the earth languish.
5 Lafti saba isheetiin xuroofteerti; isaan seeraaf ajajamuu didan; sirnaan buluu didanii kakuu bara baraa sana cabsaniiru.
The earth also is polluted under the inhabitants of it, because they have transgressed the laws, violated the statutes, broken the everlasting covenant.
6 Kanaafuu abaarsi lafa balleessa; sabni ishees balleessaa isaatiif adabama. Kanaafuu jiraattonni lafaa ni gubatu; nama muraasatu hafa.
Therefore the curse has devoured the earth, and those who dwell in it are found guilty. Therefore the inhabitants of the earth are burned, and few men left.
7 Daadhiin wayinii haaraan ni goga; mukni wayiniis ni coollaga; warri gammadan hundinuu ni aadu.
The new wine mourns. The vine languishes. All the merry-hearted do sigh.
8 Dibbeen sagaleen isaa namatti tolu ni calʼisa; wacni fandalaltootaa qabbanaaʼeera; baganaan nama gammachiisus calʼiseera.
The mirth of tambourine ceases. The noise of those who rejoice ends. The joy of the harp ceases.
9 Isaan siʼachi sirbaa daadhii wayinii hin dhugan; dhugaatiin jabaan warra isa dhuganitti ni hadhaaʼa.
They shall not drink wine with a song. Strong drink shall be bitter to those who drink it.
10 Magaalaan diigamte sun ontee hafti; akka namni tokko iyyuu ol hin seenneef manni hundi ni cufama.
The waste city is broken down. Every house is shut up, that no man may come in.
11 Isaan daadhii wayinii dhabanii daandii irratti booʼu; gammachuun hundi gaddatti geeddarama; ililchuun hundis lafa irraa dhabama.
There is a crying in the streets because of the wine. All joy is darkened. The mirth of the land is gone.
12 Magaalaan sun diigamtee hafti; karri ishees ni caccaba.
Desolation is left in the city, and the gate is smitten with destruction.
13 Akkuma yeroo mukni ejersaa dhaʼamuu fi akkuma yeroo wayiniin galfamutti qarmiin hafu taʼu sana, lafa irratti saboota gidduuttis akkasuma ni taʼa.
For thus shall it be in the midst of the earth among the peoples, as the shaking of an olive tree, as the gleanings when the vintage is done.
14 Isaan sagalee ol fudhatanii gammachuun iyyu; gama lixa biiftuutti ulfina Waaqayyoo labsu.
These shall lift up their voice. They shall shout. For the majesty of Jehovah they cry aloud from the sea.
15 Kanaafuu isin baʼa biiftuu irraa Waaqayyoof ulfina kennaa; qarqara galaanaattis maqaa Waaqayyo Waaqa Israaʼel leellisaa.
Therefore glorify ye Jehovah in the east, even the name of Jehovah, the God of Israel, in the isles of the sea.
16 Nu moggaa lafaa irraa faarfannaa, “Isa qajeelaa sanaaf ulfinni haa taʼu” jedhu dhageenya. Ani garuu akkanan jedhe; “Ani bade, ani bade! Anaaf wayyoo! Gantoonni ni ganu! Gantoonni gantummaa isaaniitiin ganu!”
From the outermost part of the earth we have heard songs. Glory to the righteous. But I said, I pine away, I pine away. Woe is me! The treacherous have dealt treacherously, yea, the treacherous have dealt very treacherously.
17 Yaa uummata lafa irraa, sodaan, qilee fi kiyyoon si eeggatu.
Fear, and the pit, and the snare, are upon thee, O inhabitant of the earth.
18 Namni sagalee goolii baqatu kam iyyuu qilee keessa buʼa; namni qilee keessaa ol baʼu kam iyyuu kiyyoodhaan qabama. Foddaan samiiwwanii banameeraatii hundeewwan lafaa ni raafamu.
And it shall come to pass, that he who flees from the noise of the fear shall fall into the pit, and he who comes up out of the midst of the pit shall be taken in the snare. For the windows on high are opened, and the foundations of the earth tremble.
19 Lafti baqaqxeerti; lafti gargar baateerti; lafti akka malee raafamteerti;
The earth is utterly broken. The earth is torn apart. The earth is shaken violently.
20 Lafti akkuma nama machaaʼee gatantarti; isheen akkuma daasii bubbeedhaan raafamti; yakki fincila ishee akka malee itti ulfaateera; isheen ni jigdi; deebitees hin kaatu.
The earth shall stagger like a drunken man, and shall sway to and fro like a hammock. And the transgression of it shall be heavy upon it, and it shall fall, and not rise again.
21 Waaqayyo gaafas humnoota samii, samii irratti, mootota lafaa immoo lafa irratti ni adaba.
And it shall come to pass in that day, that Jehovah will punish the host of the high ones on high, and the kings of the earth upon the earth.
22 Isaan akkuma hidhamtootaa boolla keessaatti walitti qabamu; manni hidhaa itti cufamee guyyaa hedduu booddee adabamu.
And they shall be gathered together as prisoners are gathered in the pit, and shall be shut up in the prison. And after many days they shall be visited.
23 Jiʼi ni burjaajofti; aduunis ni qaanofti; Waaqayyoon Waan Hunda Dandaʼu, Tulluun Xiyoon irrattii fi Yerusaalem keessatti fuula maanguddootaa duratti ulfinaan ni moʼaatii.
Then the moon shall be confounded, and the sun ashamed, for Jehovah of hosts will reign in mount Zion and in Jerusalem. And glory shall be before his elders.
