Isaayyaas 60
1 “Ifni kee dhufeeraatii kaʼii ibsi; ulfinni Waaqayyoo siif baʼeera.
Arise, give light, for thy light is come; and the glory of the Lord is shining forth over thee.
2 Kunoo, dukkanni lafa, dukkanni hamaan immoo uummattoota haguuga; Waaqayyo garuu siif kaʼeera; ulfinni isaas sirraa mulʼata.
For behold, the darkness shall cover the earth, and a gross darkness the people; but over thee will shine forth the Lord, and his glory will be seen over thee.

And nations shall walk by thy light, and kings by the brightness of thy shining.
4 “Ija kee ol fudhadhuutii naannoo kee ilaali; hundinuu wal gaʼanii gara kee ni dhufu; ilmaan kee fagoodhaa, intallan kees qomatti baatamanii gara kee ni dhufu.
Lift up thy eyes round about and see, they all are assembled, they come to thee, thy sons are coming from afar, and thy daughters are brought along in arms.
5 Ergasii ni ilaalta; ni calaqqiftas; lapheen kee ni dhaʼata; gammachuudhaanis ni guutama; qabeenyi galaanotaa hundinuu gara kee dhufu; badhaadhummaan sabootaas kan kee taʼa.
Then wilt thou see and be filled with light, and thy heart will dread and be enlarged; because unto thee shall be turned the abundance of the sea, the riches of nations shall come unto thee.
6 Gaalli baayʼeen, ilmaan gaalaa kan Midiyaanii fi kan Eefaa biyya kee ni guutu. Namoonni hundi warqee fi ixaana fidanii, galata Waaqayyoo labsaa biyya Shebaatii ni dhufu.
The multitude of camels shall cover thee, the dromedaries of Midian and 'Ephah; they all from Sheba shall come: gold and frankincense shall they carry, and the praises of the Lord shall they announce.
7 Bushaayeen Qeedaar hundinuu gara keetti walitti qabamu; korbeeyyiin hoolaa Nabaayot si tajaajilu; isaan iddoo aarsaa koo irratti aarsaawwan fudhatama qaban ni taʼu; anis mana ulfina kootii nan kabaja.
All the flocks of Kedar shall be assembled unto thee, the rams of Nebayoth shall minister unto thee: they shall come for a favorable acceptance [unto me] upon my altar, and the house of my glory will I glorify.
8 “Warri akkuma gugeewwanii manneen isaaniitti barrisan, kanneen akka duumessaa gugatan kunneen eenyu faʼi?
Who are these that fly like a cloud, and like the doves, to their windows?
9 Dhugumaan biyyoonni bishaan gidduu na abdatu; sababii inni ulfina sitti uffiseef, maqaa Waaqayyo Waaqa keetii, Qulqullicha Israaʼeliitiif jedhanii dooniiwwan Tarshiish dursanii, meetii fi warqee isaanii wajjin ilmaan kee fagoodhaa ni fidu.
Yea, unto me [the inhabitants of] the isles shall hasten, and the ships of Tharshish at first, to bring thy sons from afar, their silver and their gold with them, unto the name of the Lord thy God, and to the Holy One of Israel; because he hath glorified thee.
10 “Namoonni ormaa dallaa kee ni ijaaru; mootonni isaaniis si tajaajilu; Ani aariidhaan si dhaʼu illee, gara laafina koo jaalalaan sitti nan argisiisa.
And the sons of the stranger shall build up thy walls, and their kings shall minister unto thee; for in my wrath did I smite thee, but in my favor have I had mercy on thee.
11 Akka namoonni badhaadhina sabootaa gara keetti fidaniif, akka mootonni isaaniis hiriiraan gara keetti seenaniif, karrawwan kee yeroo hunda banamaa taʼu; isaan halkanii guyyaa gonkumaa hin cufaman;
And thy gates shall stand open continually, day and night shall they not be closed, to bring unto thee the wealth of nations, and their kings led [captive].

14 Ilmaan warra si cunqursanii siif sagadaa gara kee dhufu; warri si tuffatan hundinuus miilla keetti kufu; isaanis Magaalaa Waaqayyoo Xiyoon kan Qulqullicha Israaʼel jedhanii si waamu.
And then shall come unto thee bent down the sons of those who afflicted thee, and there shall bow themselves down at the soles of thy feet all thy revilers; and they shall call thee, The city of the Lord, Zion of the Holy One of Israel.
15 “Yoo ati jibbamtee gatamtee namni tokko iyyuu si keessaan darbuu lagate iyyuu, ani boontuu bara baraatii fi gammachuu dhaloota hundaa sin taasisa.
Instead that thou wast forsaken and hated, without one to pass through [thee], will I render thee an excellency of everlasting, a joy of all generations.
16 Ati aannan sabootaa ni dhugda; harma moototaas ni hoota. Yommus ani Waaqayyo Jabaan Yaaqoob, Fayyisaa kee fi Furaa kee akkan taʼe ni beekta.
And thou shalt suck the milk of nations, and the breast of kings shalt thou suck; and thou shalt know that I the Lord am thy Saviour, and thy Redeemer, the Mighty One of Jacob.
17 Ani qooda naasii warqee, qooda sibiilaa immoo, meetii siif nan fida. Qooda mukaa naasii, qooda dhagaa immoo, sibiila siif nan fida. Nagaa mootii kee, qajeelummaa immoo, bulchaa kee nan godha.
Instead of the copper will I bring gold, and instead of the iron will I bring silver, and instead of wood copper, and instead of the stones iron; and I will set peace as thy authorities, and righteousness as thy taskmasters.
18 Siʼachi biyya kee keessatti gooliin, daarii kee keessatti immoo diigamni yookaan badiisni hin dhagaʼamu; ati garuu dallaa kee Fayyina, karrawwan kee immoo Galata jettee waamta.
There shall not be heard any wore violence in thy land, wasting and destruction within thy boundaries; but thou shalt call, Salvation, thy walls, and thy gates, Praise.
19 Siʼachi aduun guyyaadhaan, ifni jiʼaas halkaniin ifa kee hin taʼu; Waaqayyo ifa kee bara baraa taʼaatii; Waaqni kee ulfina kee ni taʼa.
The sun shall not be unto thee any more for a light by day, and for brightness shall the moon not give light unto thee; but the Lord will be unto thee for a light of everlasting, and thy God as thy glory.
20 Aduun kee deebitee hin dhiitu; jiʼi kee hin badu; Waaqayyo ifa kee bara baraa ni taʼa; barri gadda kees ni raawwatama.
Thy sun shall not go down any more, and thy moon shall not be withdrawn; for the Lord will be unto thee for a light of everlasting, and ended shall be the days of thy mourning,
21 Yoos uummanni kee hundi qajeelaa ni taʼa; bara baraanis lafa ni dhaala. Isaan biqiltuu ani dhaabbadhee dha; hojii harka koo, kan ani ittiin ulfina koo mulʼisuuf jedhee hojjedhee dha.
And thy people—they all will be righteous, for ever shall they possess the land, the sprout of my planting, the work of my hands, that I may glorify myself.
22 Maatiin muraasni kuma, gareen xinnaan immoo saba guddaa taʼa. Ani Waaqayyoo dha; waan kana yeroo isaatti dafee nan hojjedha.”
The little one shall become a thousand, and the small, a mighty nation: I the Lord will hasten it in its time.
