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.
Thus saith Jehovah: Where is the bill of your mother's divorcement, By which I dismissed her? Or who is he among my creditors To whom I have sold you? Behold, for your iniquities are ye sold, And for your transgressions was your mother dismissed.
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.
Wherefore, when I came, was no man at hand? When I called, was there none to answer? Is my hand too short to redeem? Or have I no power to deliver? Behold, at my rebuke I dry up the sea, And make the rivers a desert. Their fish putrefy for want of water, And die with thirst.
3 Ani samiitti dukkana nan uffisa; wayyaa gaddaas itti nan haguuga.”
I clothe the heavens with blackness, And make sackcloth their covering.
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 Jehovah hath given me the tongue of the learned, That I might know how to strengthen with my words them that are weary; He wakeneth me every morning, He wakeneth mine ear, That I may hear in the manner of the learned.
5 Waaqayyo Gooftaan gurra koo naa baneera; anis fincilaa hin turre; ani dugda duubatti hin deebine.
The Lord Jehovah opened mine ear, And I was not disobedient, Neither did I withdraw myself backward.
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 gave my back to the smiters, And my cheeks to them that pluck the beard; I hid not my face from shame 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.
But the Lord Jehovah is my helper, Therefore shall I not be confounded; Therefore have I made my face like a flint, For I know that I shall not be put to shame.
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!
He that defendeth my cause is near; Who will contend with me? Let us stand up together! Who is my adversary? Let him come near to me!
9 Waaqayyo Gooftaatu na gargaara. Eenyutu natti mura? Isaan hundi akkuma wayyaa moofaʼu; dholdholeenis isaan nyaatti.
Behold, the Lord Jehovah is my defender; Who is he that shall condemn me? Behold, they shall all waste away like a garment; The moth shall consume them.
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 is there among you that feareth Jehovah, That hearkeneth to the voice of his servant, That walketh in darkness and hath no light? Let him trust in the name of Jehovah, And lean upon his 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.
Behold, all ye who kindle a fire, Who gird yourselves with burning arrows! Walk ye in the light of your fire, And in the burning arrows which ye have kindled. This shall ye have from my hand; Ye shall lie down in sorrow.
