Isaayyaas 28
1 Gonfoo of tuulummaa kan machooftota Efreem sanaaf, daraaraa coollagu kan ulfina miidhagina isaaniitiif, kan mataa sulula gabbataa irra jiruuf, magaalaa warra daadhii wayiniitiin fudhataman sanaatiif wayyoo!
Woe to the crowne of pride, the drunkards of Ephraim: for his glorious beautie shall be a fading flowre, which is vpon the head of the valley of them that be fat, and are ouercome with wine.
2 Kunoo, Gooftaan isa humna qabeessaa fi jabaa tokko qaba. Inni akkuma cabbiitii fi bubbee waa balleessuu, akkuma bokkaa jabaatii fi bishaan guutee irra dhangalaʼuu, humnaan lafatti gad ishee darbata.
Beholde, the Lord hath a mightie and strong hoste, like a tempest of haile, and a whirlewinde that ouerthroweth, like a tempest of mightie waters that ouerflowe, which throwe to the ground mightily.
3 Gonfoon of tuulummaa, machooftonni Efreem miilla jalatti dhidhiitamu.
They shall be troden vnder foote, euen the crowne and the pride of the drunkards of Ephraim.
4 Daraaraan harcaʼu, miidhaginni isaa kabajamaan, kan mataa sulula gabbataa irra jiru sun, akkuma muka harbuu utuu bonni hin gaʼin bilchaatu sanaa taʼa; namni isa argu hundi akkuma isa harka keessa galfateen isa nyaatee fixa.
For his glorious beautie shall be a fading floure, which is vpon the head of the valley of them that be fatte, and as the hastie fruite afore sommer, which when hee that looketh vpon it, seeth it, while it is in his hand, he eateth it.
5 Bara sana Waaqayyoon Waan Hunda Dandaʼu hambaa saba isaatiif, gonfoo ulfinaa, miʼa miidhaginaa ni taʼa.
In that day shall the Lord of hostes be for a crowne of glory, and for a diademe of beautie vnto the residue of his people:
6 Inni nama murtii kennuuf taaʼuuf hafuura murtii qajeelaa taʼa; warra karra irraa waraana deebisaniif immoo madda jabinaa taʼa.
And for a spirite of iudgement to him that sitteth in iudgement, and for strength vnto them that turne away the battell to the gate.
7 Jarri kuni daadhii wayiniitiin gatantaru; dhugaatii jabaadhaan dogoggoru; luboonnii fi raajonni dhugaatii jabaadhaan gatantaru; daadhii wayiniitiin fudhatamu; isaan dhugaatii jabaadhaan karaa irraa badu; yeroo mulʼata arganittis ni dogoggoru; yeroo murtii kennanittis ni dogoggoru.
But they haue erred because of wine, and are out of the way by strong drinke: the priest and the prophet haue erred by strong drinke: they are swallowed vp with wine: they haue gone astraye through strong drinke: they faile in vision: they stumble in iudgement.
8 Maaddiin hundinuu diddigaan guutameera; iddoon hin xureeffamin tokko iyyuu hin jiru.
For all their tables are full of filthy vomiting: no place is cleane.
9 “Namni inni waa barsiisuu yaalu kun eenyu? Inni eenyuuf ergaa isaa ibsaa jira? Ijoollee aannan dhiifteef moo ijoollee harma guuteef?
Whome shall he teache knowledge? and whome shall he make to vnderstand the thinges that hee heareth? them that are weyned from the milke, and drawen from the breastes.
10 Ajaja irratti ajaja; ajaja irratti ajaja; sirna irratti sirna; sirna irratti sirna; asitti muraasa; achitti muraasa” taʼaatii.
For precept must be vpon precept, precept vpon precept, line vnto line, line vnto line, there a litle, and there a litle.
11 Yoos Waaqni afaan alagootaatiin, afaan hin beekamneenis saba kanatti ni dubbata;
For with a stammering tongue and with a strange language shall he speake vnto this people.
12 inni akkana isaaniin jedhe; “Kun iddoo boqonnaa ti; warri dadhaban haa boqotan; kun iddoo aara galfannaa ti.” Isaan garuu dhagaʼuu didan.
Vnto whome hee saide, This is the rest: giue rest to him that is weary: and this is the refreshing, but they would not heare.
13 Yoo akkasii dubbiin Waaqayyoo akkana isaanitti taʼa; ajaja irratti ajaja; ajaja irratti ajaja; sirna irratti sirna; sirna irratti sirna; asitti muraasa; achitti muraasa; kunis akka isaan dhaqanii dugda duubatti kufanii fi akka isaan caccabanii kiyyoodhaan qabamaniif.
Therefore shall the worde of the Lord be vnto them precept vpon precept, precept vpon precept, line vnto line, line vnto line, there a litle and there a litle, that they may goe, and fall backward, and be broken, and be snared, and be taken.
14 Kanaafuu isin qoostonni warri uummata Yerusaalem bulchitan dubbii Waaqayyoo dhagaʼaa.
Wherefore, heare the worde of the Lord, ye scornefull men that rule this people, which is at Ierusalem.
15 Isin akkana jettanii of tuultu; “Nu duʼa wajjin kakuu galleerra; siiʼool wajjinis walii galtee gooneerra. Sababii nu soba daʼoo godhannee, sobas iddoo itti dhokannu godhanneef, balaan hamaan yeroo dhufee lafa balleessutti nu tuquu hin dandaʼu.” (Sheol h7585)
Because ye haue said, We haue made a couenant with death, and with hell are we at agreement: though a scourge runne ouer, and passe through, it shall not come at vs: for we haue made falshood our refuge, and vnder vanitie are we hid, (Sheol h7585)
16 Kanaafuu Waaqayyo Gooftaan akkana jedha; “Kunoo ani dhagaa tokko, dhagaa qoratame, dhagaa golee gati jabeessa tokko hundee mirkanaaʼaadhaaf Xiyoon keessa nan kaaʼa; namni amanu kam iyyuu hin qaanaʼu.
Therefore thus saith the Lord God, Behold, I will laye in Zion a stone, a tried stone, a precious corner stone, a sure foundation. Hee that beleeueth, shall not make haste.
17 Ani murtii qajeelaa funyoo ittiin safaran, qajeelummaa immoo madaalii nan godhadha; soba isin daʼoo godhattan sana bokkaan jabaan ni balleessa; bishaanis lafa isin itti dhokattan keessa ni lolaʼa.
Iudgement also will I laye to the rule, and righteousnesse to the balance, and the haile shall sweepe away the vaine confidence, and the waters shall ouerflowe the secret place.
18 Kakuun isin duʼa wajjin godhattan ni diigama; walii galteen isin siiʼool wajjin godhattanis ni barbadeeffama. Yeroo balaan hamaan dhufee lafa balleessutti isin lafatti gad dhidhiitamtu. (Sheol h7585)
And your couenant with death shalbe disanulled, and your agreement with hell shall not stand: when a scourge shall runne ouer and passe through, then shall ye be trode downe by it. (Sheol h7585)
19 Inni yeroo dhufu hunda isin fudhatee deema; ganama ganama halkanii fi guyyaas, inni waa balleessa.” Ergaa kana hubachuun naasuu guddaa namatti fida.
When it passeth ouer, it shall take you away: for it shall passe through euery morning in the day, and in the night, and there shalbe onely feare to make you to vnderstand the hearing.
20 Sireen irratti diriirfachuuf baayʼee gabaabaa dha; uffata halkanii ofitti marachuuf baayʼee dhiphaa dha.
For the bed is streight that it can not suffice, and the couering narowe that one can not wrappe himselfe.
21 Waaqayyo hojii isaa, hojii isaa haaraa sana hojjechuuf, gocha isaa, gocha isaa kan hin beekamne sana hojjechuuf, akkuma Tulluu Pheraaziim keessatti godhe sana ni kaʼa; akkuma Sulula Gibeʼoonitti godhe sana ni kaʼa.
For the Lord shall stand as in mount Perazim: hee shall be wroth as in the valley of Gibeon, that he may do his worke, his strage worke, and bring to passe his acte, his strange acte.
22 Amma qoosaa keessan dhiisaa; yoo akkas hin taʼin foncaan keessan isinitti jabaata; Gooftaan, Waaqayyoon Waan Hunda Dandaʼu, labsii guutummaa biyyattii balleessuuf labse natti himeera.
Nowe therefore be no mockers, least your bondes increase: for I haue heard of the Lord of hostes a consumption, euen determined vpon the whole earth.
23 Dhaggeeffadhaatii sagalee koo dhagaʼaa; qalbeeffadhaatii waan ani dubbadhu dhagaʼaa.
Hearken ye, and heare my voyce: hearken ye, and heare my speach.
24 Qonnaan bulaan tokko yeroo sanyii facaasuuf lafa qotatutti, ittuma fufee qotaa? Inni ittuma fufee biyyoo caccabsee bulleessaa?
Doeth the plowe man plowe all the day, to sowe? doeth he open, and breake the clots of his ground?
25 Inni yeroo lafa wal qixxeessutti dimbilaalaa fi kamuunii hin facaasuu? Inni qamadii toora tooraan, garbuu iddoo isaa irratti, honboriis lafa qotiisaa isaa irratti hin facaasuu?
When he hath made it plaine, wil he not then sowe the fitches, and sowe cummin, and cast in wheat by measure, and the appointed barly and rye in their place?
26 Waaqni isaa isa barsiisa; karaa qajeelaa irras isa buusa.
For his God doeth instruct him to haue discretion, and doeth teach him.
27 Abasuudni gangalchaadhaan hin dhaʼamu; kamuunii irras gommaan gaarii hin oofamu; abasuudni uleedhaan, insilaalli immoo shimalaan dhaʼama.
For fitches shall not be threshed with a threshing instrument, neither shall a cart wheele be turned about vpon the cummin: but ye fitches are beaten out with a staffe, and cummin with a rod.
28 Midhaan buddeena tolchuuf daakamuu qaba; kanaafuu namni tokko bara baraan midhaan hin dhaʼu. Inni gommaa gaarii kan midhaan dhaʼu midhaan sana irra oofu iyyuu fardeen isaa midhaanicha hin bulleessan.
Bread corne when it is threshed, hee doeth not alway thresh it, neither doeth the wheele of his cart still make a noyse, neither will he breake it with the teeth thereof.
29 Wanni kun hundinuu Waaqayyoo Waan Hunda Dandaʼu, isa mariidhaan dinqisiisaa, ogummaadhaanis guddaa taʼe biraa dhufa.
This also commeth from the Lord of hostes, which is wonderfull in counsell, and excellent in workes.
