< Isaayyaas 32 >

1 Kunoo mootiin qajeelummaadhaan moʼa; bulchitoonnis murtii qajeelaadhaan bulchu.
Lo! in righteousness, shall reign a king, Yea even princes, with equity, shall bear rule.
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.
So shall each one become As a hiding-place from the wind And a covert from the storm, —As channels of water in a dry place, As the shadow of a massive cliff in a weary land.
3 Ergasiis iji warra waa arguu hin dunuunfatu; gurri warra waa dhagaʼuus ni dhaggeeffata.
And the eyes of them who are ready to see, shall not be closed, —And, the ears of them who are ready to hear, shall hearken;
4 Qalbiin nama jarjaru tokkoo ni beeka; ni hubata; arrabni giingees qajeelchee qulqulleessee dubbata.
And the heart of the hurried, shall take note of knowledge, And the tongue of stammerers, shall make haste to speak plainly.
5 Siʼachi gowwaan ulfina qabeessa hin jedhamu; addaggeenis baayʼee hin kabajamu.
A base man, shall no longer be called, noble, —Nor, a knave, be named, liberal;
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, a base man, with baseness, will speak, And, his heart, will practise iniquity, —Practising profanity, And speaking, against Yahweh that which misleadeth, Emptying the soul of the hungry, And the drink of the thirsty, he causeth to fail;
7 Malli addaggee hammina; inni utuma iyyanni rakkattootaa qajeelaa taʼee jiruu sobumaan hiyyeeyyii balleessuuf jedhee jalʼina yaada.
Yea, a knave, his weapons are wicked, —He, base schemes, hath devised To ruin the oppressed with speeches of falsehood Even when the needy pleadeth, for justice.
8 Namni ulfina qabeessi garuu karoora ulfaataa baasa; hojii ulfina qabeessa sanattis ni jabaata.
But, a noble man, noble things, hath devised, —And, he, upon noble things, will stand,
9 Yaa dubartoota akka malee boontan kaʼaatii na dhaggeeffadhaa; yaa intallan waan nagaa qabdan of seetan waan ani jedhu dhagaʼaa!
Ye women in comfort! arise hear my voice, Ye daughters so confident give ear to my speech: —
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.
Some days beyond a year, ye shall be troubled ye confident ones, —For failed hath the vintage, No, gathering, cometh in.
11 Yaa dubartoota boontuuwwan isin holladhaa; intallan waan nagaa qabdan of seetanis raafamaa! Uffata keessan of irraa baasaatii wayyaa gaddaa mudhii keessanitti hidhadhaa.
Tremble, ye women in comfort, Be troubled ye daughters so confident, —Strip! and bare yourselves, and gird somewhat on your loins:
12 Lafa qotiisaa gaariif, muka wayinii ija naqatuufis laphee keessan dhaʼaa;
Upon your breasts, continue smiting: For desirable fields, For fruitful vine.
13 lafa uummata koo kan qoraattii fi sokorruun irratti guddatuuf laphee keessan dhaʼaa; dhugumaan manneen gammachuu hundaa fi magaalaa fandalaltuu kanaaf booʼaa.
Over the soil of my people, thorns and briars shall grow, —Yea over all houses of joy, thou city exultant!
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;
For the palace, is abandoned, the tumult of the city, hath ceased—Hill and watch-tower, serve as caves, unto times age-abiding, The joy of wild-asses, The pasture of flocks: —
15 kunis hamma Hafuurri Qulqulluun gubbaadhaa nurratti dhangalaafamuu fi hamma gammoojjiin lafa qotiisaa gabbataa taʼee lafti qotiisaa gabbataan immoo bosona fakkaatutti taʼa.
Until there be poured out upon us the spirit, from on high, —Then shall the wilderness become, garden-land, And the garden-land, for a forest, be reckoned;
16 Murtii qajeelaan gammoojjii keessa jiraata; qajeelummaan immoo lafa qotiisaa gabbataa keessa jiraata.
Then shall, justice inhabit, the wilderness, And righteousness, in the garden-land, shall abide;
17 Buʼaan qajeelummaa nagaa dha; faayidaan qajeelummaa immoo utuu hin birʼatin tasgabbiin bara baraan jiraachuu dha.
And the yield of righteousness, shall be, peace, —And the tillage of righteousness, quietness, and confidence! to times age-abiding;
18 Sabni koo iddoo jireenyaa nagaa qabu, manneen bultii sodaa hin qabne iddoo boqonnaa jeequmsi hin jirre keessa jiraata.
And my people shall dwell, In a borne of peace, —and In habitations of security, and In resting-places of comfort.
19 Yommuu cabbiin bosona irratti buʼu, magaalattiin guutumaan guutuutti gad deebiti;
But it shall hail during the felling of the forest, And in a sunken place, shall, the city, sink.
20 isin warri qarqara laga hundaatti sanyii facaafattanii loon keessanii fi harroota keessan nagaan bobbaafattan akkam eebbifamoo dha.
How happy are ye who sow beside all waters, —Who send forth the foot of the ox and the ass.
