Isaayyaas 50
1 Waaqayyo akkana jedha: “Waraqaan ragaa, kan ani ittiin haadha keessan hiikee of irraa ittiin ishee geggeesse meerre? Yookaan namni liqii narraa qabu kan ani itti isin gurgure eenyu? Isin sababii cubbuu keessaniif gurguramtaniirtu; sababii yakka keessaniitiifis haati keessan ariʼamteerti.
This is what the Lord says: Where's your mother's divorce certificate I gave her when I sent her away? Which of my creditors did I sell you to? Now look! You were sold because of your sins, and your mother was sent away because of your wrongdoing.
2 Yeroo ani dhufetti namni maaliif achi hin jiraatin? Yeroo ani waametti namni owwaatu maaliif achii dhabame? Harki koo akka furuu hin dandeenyeef gabaabateeraa? Ani isin baraaruuf humna dhabeeraa? Ani dheekkamsa qofaan galaana nan gogsa; lageenis gammoojjiitti nan geeddara; qurxummiiwwan isaanii bishaan dhabanii ajaaʼu; dheebuudhaanis ni dhumu.
When I came, why wasn't anyone there? When I called, why didn't anyone answer? Is it because I don't have the strength to save you, or the power to rescue you? Can't you see that if I order it, the sea will dry up? I can turn rivers into a desert. Their fish stink because they've died of thirst since there's no water.
3 Ani samiitti dukkana nan uffisa; wayyaa gaddaas itti nan haguuga.”
I can make the heavens go dark, covering them with sackcloth like they're in mourning.
4 Akka ani warra dadhaban jajjabeessuuf, Waaqayyo Gooftaan arraba barate naa kenneera. Inni ganama ganama na dammaqsa; akka inni akkuma barataa tokkootti dhaggeeffatuufis gurra koo dammaqsa.
The Lord God has given me the ability to teach others, to know how to encourage those who are exhausted with a word. He wakes me up every morning; he helps me listen as a disciple.
5 Waaqayyo Gooftaan gurra koo naa baneera; anis fincilaa hin turre; ani dugda duubatti hin deebine.
The Lord God has instructed me, and I haven't been rebellious and I haven't turned away.
6 Ani warra na rukutanitti dugda koo, warra areeda narraa buqqisanitti immoo maddii koo nan kenne; yeroo isaan natti qoosanii hancufa natti tufanitti, ani fuula koo isaan hin dhokfanne.
I offered my back for people to beat me and my cheeks for people to pull my beard. I didn't hide my face from their mocking and spitting.
7 Sababii Waaqayyo Gooftaan na gargaaruuf, ani hin salphifamu. Kanaafuu ani fuula koo akkuma dhagaa gurraachaa godhadheera; ani akka hin qaaneffamne illee nan beeka.
The Lord God helps me, so I haven't been disgraced. That's why I'm so determined, setting my face hard as stone, knowing I won't be humiliated.
8 Inni dhugaa naaf baasu dhiʼoo jira. Yoos eenyutu na himata ree? Mee walitti gad haa baanu! Himataan koo eenyu? Inni mee natti gad haa baʼu!
The one who vindicates me is close by, so who will bring charges against me? Let's stand to oppose one another! Come on, anyone who wants to accuse me!
9 Waaqayyo Gooftaatu na gargaara. Eenyutu natti mura? Isaan hundi akkuma wayyaa moofaʼu; dholdholeenis isaan nyaatti.
The Lord God defends me. Who is going to declare me guilty? Look! Those who try will fall apart like old clothing, eaten up by moths.
10 Isin keessaa kan Waaqayyoon sodaatee dubbii garbicha isaatiif ajajamu eenyu? Namni dukkana keessa deddeebiʼu, kan ifa hin qabne, maqaa Waaqayyoo amanatee Waaqa isaatti haa irkatu.
Who among you respects the Lord and obeys what his servant says? Who among you walks in darkness and doesn't have light? Let them trust in the Lord and put their confidence in God.
11 Amma garuu isin warri ibidda bobeessitanii guca bobaʼaa deemu qabattan hundinuu ifa ibiddaa keessaniitii fi ifa guca bobeessitanii keessa deemaa. Wanni isin harka koo irraa argattan kanaa dha; isin dhiphinaan ni ciciiftu.
Beware all you who start a fire, who pick up blazing torches! Go ahead, walk in the light of your own fire and of the torches you yourselves have set alight! This is what you will receive from me: You are going to lie down in a place of suffering.
