Isaayyaas 29
1 Yaa Ariiʼeel, yaa Ariiʼeel, magaalaa Daawit keessa jiraate, siif wayyoo! Waggaa irratti waggaa dabalaa; ayyaanonni waggaas ittuma haa fufan.
Woe to you, O Ariel, the city of Ariel where David camped! Year upon year let your festivals recur.
2 Taʼus ani Ariiʼeelin marsee nan qaba; isheen boossee ni wawwaatti; isheen anaaf akka Ariiʼeel taati.
And I will constrain Ariel, and there will be mourning and lamentation; she will be like an altar hearth before Me.
3 Ani karaa hundaan naannoo kee nan qubadha; gamoowwaniinis sin marsa; tuullaa biyyoos sitti naannessee nan dhaaba.
I will camp in a circle around you; I will besiege you with towers and set up siege works against you.
4 Ati gad deebifamtee lafa irraa ni dubbatta; haasaan kee biyyoo keessaa guunguma. Sagaleen kee akka sagalee ekeraa lafa keessaa baʼa; haasaan kees biyyoo keessaa hasaasa.
You will be brought low, you will speak from the ground, and out of the dust your words will be muffled. Your voice will be like a spirit from the ground; your speech will whisper out of the dust.
5 Diinonni kee hedduun garuu akka awwaara bullaaʼee, gara jabeeyyiin baayʼeenis akka habaqii bubbeen fudhatee taʼu. Akkuma tasaa utuu hin beekaminis,
But your many foes will be like fine dust, the multitude of the ruthless like blowing chaff. Then suddenly, in an instant,
6 Waaqayyoon Waan Hunda Dandaʼu, bakakkaadhaan, sochii lafaatii fi waca guddaadhaan, bubbeedhaan, bubbee hamaa fi arraba ibidda waa fixuutiin ni dhufa.
you will be visited by the LORD of Hosts with thunder and earthquake and loud noise, with windstorm and tempest and consuming flame of fire.
7 Ergasii tuunni saboota hundaa kan Ariiʼeeliin lolu, kan ishee fi daʼoo ishee jajjaboo dhaʼee marsee qabu, akkuma abjuu, akkuma mulʼata halkan keessaa taʼa;
All the many nations going out to battle against Ariel— even all who war against her, laying siege and attacking her— will be like a dream, like a vision in the night,
8 kunis akkuma namni beelaʼe tokko akka waa nyaachaa jiru abjuudhaan argee yeroo dammaqutti garuu amma illee beela qabu sana, yookaan akkuma namni dheebote tokko akka waa dhugaa jiru abjuudhaan argee yeroo dammaqutti garuu amma illee dheebuudhaan gaggabu sana taʼa. Tuuta saboota hundaa kan Tulluu Xiyoon lolu irrattis akkasuma taʼa.
as when a hungry man dreams he is eating, then awakens still hungry; as when a thirsty man dreams he is drinking, then awakens faint and parched. So will it be for all the many nations who go to battle against Mount Zion.
9 Rifadhaa; dinqisiifadhaas; of jaamsaatii nama waa hin argine taʼaa; machaaʼaa; garuu daadhii wayiniitiin hin taʼin; gatantaraa; garuu dhugaatii jabaadhaan hin taʼin.
Stop and be astonished; blind yourselves and be sightless; be drunk, but not with wine; stagger, but not from strong drink.
10 Waaqayyo hirriba cimaa isinitti buuseera; ija keessan raajota, cufeera; mataa keessan ilaaltootas, haguugeera.
For the LORD has poured out on you a spirit of deep sleep. He has shut your eyes, O prophets; He has covered your heads, O seers.
11 Mulʼanni kun hundi isiniif dubbii kitaaba maramaa irratti chaappeffame malee homaa miti. Yoo isin kitaaba kana nama dubbisuu dandaʼu tokkotti kennitanii, “Maaloo mee waan kana dubbisi” jettaniin inni, “Sababii kitaabichi chaappeffameef ani dubbisuu hin dandaʼu” jedhee deebisa.
And the entire vision will be to you like the words sealed in a scroll. If it is handed to someone to read, he will say, “I cannot, because it is sealed.”
12 Yookaan yoo isin kitaaba maramaa kana nama dubbisuu hin dandeenye tokkotti kennitanii, “Maaloo mee waan kana dubbisi” jettaniin inni, “Ani akkamitti akkan dubbisu hin beeku” jedhee deebisa.
Or if the scroll is handed to one unable to read, he will say, “I cannot read.”
13 Gooftaan akkana jedha: “Uummanni kun afaan isaatiin natti dhiʼaata; hidhii isaatiinis na kabaja; garaan isaa garuu narraa fagoo jira. Waaqeffannaan isaan na waaqeffatanis seera namni barsiisu qofaan tolfame.
Therefore the Lord said: “These people draw near to Me with their mouths and honor Me with their lips, but their hearts are far from Me. Their worship of Me is but rules taught by men.
14 Kanaafuu ani amma illee dinqii irratti dinqii dabalee uummata kana nan dinqisiisa; ogummaan nama ogeessaa ni bada; hubannaan hubattootaas ni dhokata.”
Therefore I will again confound these people with wonder upon wonder. The wisdom of the wise will vanish, and the intelligence of the intelligent will be hidden.”
15 Warra karoora isaanii Waaqayyo duraa dhokfachuuf jedhanii qileetti gad buʼaniif, warra hojii isaanii dukkana keessatti hojjetanii, “Eenyutu nu arga? Eenyutu beeka?” jedhanii yaadaniif wayyoo!
Woe to those who dig deep to hide their plans from the LORD. In darkness they do their works and say, “Who sees us, and who will know?”
16 Kun jalʼina keessan, suphee dhooftuu akka supheetti ilaaltu! Wanni tolchame tokko nama isa tolcheen “Inni na hin tolchine” jedhaa? Okkoteen tokko suphee dhooftuudhaan, “Inni homaa hin beeku” jechuu dandaʼaa?
You have turned things upside down, as if the potter were regarded as clay. Shall what is formed say to him who formed it, “He did not make me”? Can the pottery say of the potter, “He has no understanding”?
17 Libaanoon yeroo gabaabaa keessatti lafa qotiisaa gabbatte hin taatuu? Lafti qonnaa gabbataan sunis bosona hin fakkaattuu?
In a very short time, will not Lebanon become an orchard, and the orchard seem like a forest?
18 Gaafas duudaan dubbii kitaaba maramaa ni dhagaʼa; iji nama jaamaa dimimmisaa fi dukkana keessatti ni arga.
On that day the deaf will hear the words of the scroll, and out of the deep darkness the eyes of the blind will see.
19 Namni gad of qabu ammas Waaqayyotti ni gammada; rakkattoonnis Qulqullicha Israaʼel sanaan ni gammadu.
The humble will increase their joy in the LORD, and the poor among men will rejoice in the Holy One of Israel.
20 Gara jabeeyyiin ni badu; warri namatti qoosan ni barbadaaʼu; warri hammina hojjechuu jaallatan hundinuu ni balleeffamu;
For the ruthless will vanish, the mockers will disappear, and all who look for evil will be cut down—
21 warri dubbiin yakkamaa nama godhan, warri namicha mana murtiitti namaaf falmu dura kiyyoo kaaʼanii sobaan dhugaa baʼuudhaan murtii qajeelaa nama yakka hin qabnee jalʼisan ni balleeffamu.
those who indict a man with a word, who ensnare the mediator at the gate, and who with false charges deprive the innocent of justice.
22 Kanaafuu Waaqayyo inni Abrahaamin fure sun mana Yaaqoobiin akkana jedha: “Yaaqoob siʼachi deebiʼee hin qaanaʼu; fuulli isaas siʼachi hin dukkanaaʼu.
Therefore the LORD who redeemed Abraham says of the house of Jacob: “No longer will Jacob be ashamed and no more will his face grow pale.
23 Isaan yeroo gidduu isaaniitti ijoollee isaanii hojii harka kootii sana arganitti, maqaa koo ni qulqulleessu; isaan qulqullummaa Qulqullicha Yaaqoob ni beeku; Waaqa Israaʼelis sodaachuudhaan ni jiraatu.
For when he sees his children around him, the work of My hands, they will honor My name, they will sanctify the Holy One of Jacob, and they will stand in awe of the God of Israel.
24 Warri dogoggoran hubannaa ni argatu; warri guungumanis qajeelfama ni fudhatu.”
Then the wayward in spirit will come to understanding, and those who grumble will accept instruction.”
