< Isaayyaas 32 >

1 Kunoo mootiin qajeelummaadhaan moʼa; bulchitoonnis murtii qajeelaadhaan bulchu.
Watch! A king is coming who does what's right when he rules, and those who rule under him will act fairly.
2 Tokkoon tokkoon namaa akkuma daʼannoo bubbee jalaa itti daʼatanii, akkuma iddoo itti jabaa jalaa baqataniitti, akkuma bishaan gammoojjii keessa yaaʼuutii fi akkuma gaaddisa kattaa guddaa kan lafa gogaa keessaa ni taʼa.
Each one will be like a shelter from the wind, like a protection from the storm, like rivers of water in the dry desert, like the shade of a large rock in a sun-baked land.
3 Ergasiis iji warra waa arguu hin dunuunfatu; gurri warra waa dhagaʼuus ni dhaggeeffata.
Then everyone with eyes will be able to truly see, and everyone who has ears will be able to truly hear.
4 Qalbiin nama jarjaru tokkoo ni beeka; ni hubata; arrabni giingees qajeelchee qulqulleessee dubbata.
Those whose minds are impulsive will be sensible and think things through; those who stammer will speak clearly.
5 Siʼachi gowwaan ulfina qabeessa hin jedhamu; addaggeenis baayʼee hin kabajamu.
No longer will fools be called respectable or crooks highly-regarded.
6 Gowwaan sababii gowwummaa dubbatuuf qalbiin isaa hammina hojjeta; inni waan Waaqni hin jaallanne hojjeta; waaʼee Waaqayyoos dogoggora odeessa; inni nama beelaʼe beela hin baasu; nama dheebote illee bishaan dhowwata.
For fools only talk foolishness, thinking evil things. They act in opposition to the Lord, misrepresenting him in what they say. They refuse to give food to the hungry and deny water to the thirsty.
7 Malli addaggee hammina; inni utuma iyyanni rakkattootaa qajeelaa taʼee jiruu sobumaan hiyyeeyyii balleessuuf jedhee jalʼina yaada.
Cheats use evil methods; they devise schemes to ruin the poor with lies, even when right is on the side of the poor.
8 Namni ulfina qabeessi garuu karoora ulfaataa baasa; hojii ulfina qabeessa sanattis ni jabaata.
But noble people act unselfishly; they keep to their principles of generosity.
9 Yaa dubartoota akka malee boontan kaʼaatii na dhaggeeffadhaa; yaa intallan waan nagaa qabdan of seetan waan ani jedhu dhagaʼaa!
Get up, you women who are lying around relaxing, and pay attention to what I'm saying! You ladies without a care in the world, listen to me!
10 Isin warri waan nagaa qabdan of seetan erga waggaan tokko xinnuma darbee booddee ni hollattu; wayiniin ija hin kennu; yeroon itti iji walitti qabamus hin dhufu.
In just over a year, you who think yourselves so safe will tremble with fear. The grape harvest is going to fail and there'll be no harvest.
11 Yaa dubartoota boontuuwwan isin holladhaa; intallan waan nagaa qabdan of seetanis raafamaa! Uffata keessan of irraa baasaatii wayyaa gaddaa mudhii keessanitti hidhadhaa.
Shudder, you women relaxing! Tremble, you ladies who feel so safe! Strip off your clothes, bare yourselves and put on sackcloth around your waists.
12 Lafa qotiisaa gaariif, muka wayinii ija naqatuufis laphee keessan dhaʼaa;
Beat your breasts in sadness over the loss of your lovely fields, your productive vines,
13 lafa uummata koo kan qoraattii fi sokorruun irratti guddatuuf laphee keessan dhaʼaa; dhugumaan manneen gammachuu hundaa fi magaalaa fandalaltuu kanaaf booʼaa.
over the loss of the land of my people. Mourn because it's now overgrown with thorns and brambles, mourn because of the loss of all the happy homes and joyful towns.
14 Daʼannoon ni ona; magaalaan namni keessa guutes duwwaa hafti; magaalaan jabduunii fi qooxiin eegumsaa bara baraan ni onu; iddoo harreen diidaa keessa burraaqxuu fi iddoo bushaayeen itti bobbaʼan taʼu;
The palace is abandoned, the crowded town is deserted. Castles and watch towers will forever become homes loved by wild donkeys, and places where sheep graze,
15 kunis hamma Hafuurri Qulqulluun gubbaadhaa nurratti dhangalaafamuu fi hamma gammoojjiin lafa qotiisaa gabbataa taʼee lafti qotiisaa gabbataan immoo bosona fakkaatutti taʼa.
until the Spirit is poured out on us from above, and the desert becomes like a good field full of crops, and a good field will grow like a forest.
16 Murtii qajeelaan gammoojjii keessa jiraata; qajeelummaan immoo lafa qotiisaa gabbataa keessa jiraata.
Then people living in the desert will practice justice, and those living among the fields will do what is right.
17 Buʼaan qajeelummaa nagaa dha; faayidaan qajeelummaa immoo utuu hin birʼatin tasgabbiin bara baraan jiraachuu dha.
Living right will bring peace and security that endures.
18 Sabni koo iddoo jireenyaa nagaa qabu, manneen bultii sodaa hin qabne iddoo boqonnaa jeequmsi hin jirre keessa jiraata.
My people will live in peace, safe and secure in their homes.
19 Yommuu cabbiin bosona irratti buʼu, magaalattiin guutumaan guutuutti gad deebiti;
Even though hail can destroy a forest, and a town can be demolished,
20 isin warri qarqara laga hundaatti sanyii facaafattanii loon keessanii fi harroota keessan nagaan bobbaafattan akkam eebbifamoo dha.
you will be happy as you sow your crops beside the waters and let your cattle and donkeys roam freely.
