Isaayyaas 61
1 Sababii Waaqayyo akka ani hiyyeeyyiitti oduu gaarii lallabuuf na dibeef, Hafuurri Waaqayyo Gooftaa narra jira. Inni akka ani garaa cabe fayyisuuf, akka ani boojiʼamtootaaf bilisummaa, warra hidhamaniif immoo hiikamuu lallabuuf na ergeera;
The spirit of the Lord is on me, because I am marked out by him to give good news to the poor; he has sent me to make the broken-hearted well, to say that the prisoners will be made free, and that those in chains will see the light again;
2 akka ani bara tola Waaqayyootii fi guyyaa haaloo baʼuu Waaqa keenyaa labsuuf, akka ani warra booʼan hunda jajjabeessuuf,
To give knowledge that the year of the Lord's good pleasure has come, and the day of punishment from our God; to give comfort to all who are sad;
3 akka ani warra Xiyoon keessatti gaddaniif arjoomee, qooda daaraa miidhagina, qooda booʼichaa, zayitii gammachuu, qooda abdii kutachuu immoo, wayyaa galataa kennuuf na erge. Isaanis qilxuu qajeelummaa, biqiltuu Waaqayyo, kan inni ittiin kabajamu jedhamanii waamaman.
To give them a fair head-dress in place of dust, the oil of joy in place of the clothing of grief, praise in place of sorrow; so that they may be named trees of righteousness, the planting of the Lord, and so that he may have glory.
4 Isaan waan dur diigame deebisanii ijaaru; iddoowwan bara dheeraan dura onanii turanis akka duraatti deebisu; magaalaawwan diigaman, kanneen dhaloota hedduun dura onanii turan ni haaromsu.
And they will be building again the old broken walls, and will make new the old waste places, and will put up again the towns which have been waste for long generations.
5 Alagoonni bushaayee keessan ni tiksu; ormoonnis lafa qotiisaa fi iddoo dhaabaa wayinii keessanii keessa ni hojjetu.
And men from strange countries will be your herdsmen, and those who are not Israelites will be your ploughmen and vine-keepers.
6 Isin luboota Waaqayyoo jedhamtanii ni waamamtu; tajaajiltoota Waaqa keenyaa jedhamtaniis ni moggaafamtu. Isin qabeenya sabootaa ni nyaattu; badhaadhummaa isaaniitiin illee ni boontu.
But you will be named the priests of the Lord, the servants of our God: you will have the wealth of the nations for your food, and you will be clothed with their glory.
7 Qooda qaanii keessanii hiree dachaa ni argattu; qooda salphinaa isin dhaala keessanitti ni gammaddu; kanaafuu isin biyya keessan keessatti hiree dachaa ni dhaaltu; gammachuun bara baraas kan keessan.
As they had twice as much grief, and marks of shame were their heritage, so in their land they will be rewarded twice over, and will have eternal joy.
8 “Ani Waaqayyo murtii qajeelaa nan jaalladhaatii; saamichaa fi yakka nan jibba. Ani amanamummaa kootiin isaan nan badhaasa; kakuu bara baraas isaan wajjin nan gala.
For I, the Lord, take pleasure in upright judging; I will not put up with the violent taking away of right; and I will certainly give them their reward, and I will make an eternal agreement with them.
9 Sanyiin isaanii saboota gidduutti, ijoolleen isaanii immoo uummata gidduutti ni beekamu. Warri isaan argan hundi, akka isaan saba Waaqayyo eebbise taʼan ni beeku.”
And their seed will be noted among the nations, and their offspring among the peoples: it will be clear to all who see them that they are the seed to which the Lord has given his blessing.
10 Ani Waaqayyo itti guddaa nan gammada; lubbuun koos akka malee Waaqa kootti gammaddi. Inni akkuma misirrichi akka lubaatti mataa isaa miidhagfatu, misirrittiin immoo faayaan of bareechitu sana, wayyaa fayyinaa natti uffiseera uffata qajeelummaa narra buuseeraatii.
I will be full of joy in the Lord, my soul will be glad in my God; for he has put on me the clothing of salvation, covering me with the robe of righteousness, as the husband puts on a fair head-dress, and the bride makes herself beautiful with jewels.
11 Akkuma lafti biqiltuu biqilchitee iddoon biqiltuu immoo akka sanyiin guddattu godhu sana Waaqayyo Gooftaan akka qajeelummaa fi galanni fuula saboota hundaa duratti biqilan ni godha.
For as the earth puts out buds, and as the garden gives growth to the seeds which are planted in it, so the Lord will make righteousness and praise to be flowering before all the nations.
