Isaayyaas 31
1 Warra gargaarsa barbaacha gara Gibxitti gad buʼaniif, warra fardeen abdataniif warra gaariiwwan isaaniitii fi jabina abbootii fardeen isaanii amanatanii garuu gara Qulqullicha Israaʼel hin ilaalle yookaan gargaarsa Waaqayyoo hin barbaanneef wayyoo.
Woe [to] those going down to Egypt for help, And [who] lean on horses, And trust on chariots, because [they are] many, And on horsemen, because [they are] very strong, And have not looked on the Holy One of Israel, And have not sought YHWH.
2 Taʼus inni ogeessa; balaas fiduu dandaʼa; inni waan jedhe irraa duubatti hin deebiʼu. Inni mana hamootaatti, warra namoota hammina hojjetan gargaaraniitti ni kaʼa.
And He [is] also wise, and brings in evil, And He has not turned aside His words, And He has risen against a house of evildoers, And against the help of workers of iniquity.
3 Warri Gibxi namootuma malee Waaqa miti; fardeen isaaniis foonuma malee hafuura miti. Yeroo Waaqayyo harka isaa diriirfatutti, inni gargaaru ni gufata; inni gargaaramus ni kufa; isaan lachuu walii wajjin badu.
And the Egyptians [are men], and not God, And their horses [are] flesh, and not spirit, And YHWH stretches out His hand, And the helper has stumbled, And the helped one has fallen, And together all of them are consumed.
4 Waaqayyo akkana naan jedha: “Akkuma leenci, leenci guddaan tokko waan qabate irratti aadu sana, tuunni tiksootaa guutuun isatti wal waammatan iyyuu, inni iyya isaanii hin sodaatu; yookaan waca isaaniitiin hin raafamu; akkasuma Waaqayyoon Waan Hunda Dandaʼu Tulluu Xiyoon irratti waraana banuuf gad buʼa.
For thus said YHWH to me: “As the lion and the young lion growl over his prey, Against whom a multitude of shepherds is called, He is not frightened from their voice, And he is not humbled from their noise; So YHWH of Hosts comes down To war on Mount Zion, and on her height.
5 Akkuma simbirroon mataa namaa irra naannoftu sana Waaqayyoon Waan Hunda Dandaʼu Yerusaalemiif gaachana taʼa; inni gaachana taʼeefii ishee baraara; ishee bira darba; ishee oolchas.”
As birds flying, so does YHWH of Hosts Cover over Jerusalem, covering and delivering, Passing over, and causing to escape.”
6 Yaa saba Israaʼel, gara Isa akka malee itti finciltan sanaatti deebiʼaa.
Turn back to Him from whom sons of Israel Have deepened apostasy.
7 Bara sana tokkoon tokkoon keessan waaqota tolfamoo harki keessan cubbamaan sun meetii fi warqee irraa hojjetee ture sana ni gattuutii.
For in that day each despises His idols of silver, and his idols of gold, That your hands made to you—a sin.
8 “Asoor goraadee kan namaa hin taʼiniin kufti; goraadeen nama duʼa hin oollees isaan fixa. Isaan goraadee duraa baqatu; dargaggoonni isaaniis dirqamaan hojii humnaa hojjetu.
And Asshur has fallen by sword, not of the high, Indeed, a sword—not of the low, consumes him, And he has fled for himself from the face of a sword, And his young men become tributary.
9 Daʼoon isaanii sababii sodaatiif ni jiga; ajajjoonni isaaniis faajjii waraanaa arganii hollatu” jedha Waaqayyo, inni ibiddi isaa Xiyoon keessa, kan boolli ibidda isaa immoo Yerusaalem keessa jiru sun.
And he passes on [to] his rock from fear, And his princes have been frightened by the ensign—a declaration of YHWH, Who has a light in Zion, And who has a furnace in Jerusalem!
