Isaayyaas 65
1 “Ani warra na hin iyyaafatinitti nan mulʼadhe; warri na hin barbaadinis na argatan. Ani saba maqaa koo hin waammatiniin, ‘Ani asan jira; ani asan jira’ nan jedhe.
I allowed myself to be sought by those that asked not; I let myself be found by those that sought me not: I said, Here am I, here am I, unto a nation that called itself not by my name.
2 Ani guyyaa guutuu gara uummata didaa taʼeetti, kan karaa gaarii hin taʼin irra deemu, kan yaada ofii isaa duukaa buʼuuf harka koo nan diriirfadhe;
I spread out my hands all the time unto a rebellious people, that walk in the way which is not good, after their own thoughts;
3 Isaan saba iddoo biqiltuu keessatti aarsaa dhiʼeessuudhaan, iddoo aarsaa kan xuubii irrattis ixaana aarsuudhaan, utuu gargar hin kutin, utuma ani arguu dheekkamsaaf na kakaasanii dha;
[To] the people that provoke me to anger to my face continually; that sacrifice in gardens and burn incense upon [altars of] brick,
4 isaan warra awwaala gidduu tataaʼanii lafa dhoksaa bulanii dha; warra foon booyyee nyaatanii okkoteen isaanii bishaan foon xuraaʼaa baatuu dha;
That sit about among the graves, and lodge in the vaults, that eat the flesh of the swine, and [have] broth of abominations [in] their vessels;
5 isaan warra, ‘Achi fagaadhu; natti hin dhiʼaatin; ani si caalaa qulqulluudhaatii!’ jedhanii dha. Sabni akkasii funyaan koo keessatti akkuma aaraa, akkuma ibidda guyyaa guutuu bobaʼuu ti.
That say, Stand by thyself, come not near to me; for I am holier than thou. These are a smoke in my nose, a fire that burneth all the time.
6 “Kunoo, wanni kun akkana jedhamee fuula koo duratti barreeffameera: ani hin calʼisu; garuu gatii hojii isaanii guutuu nan kennaaf; dhugumaanis qomatti isaan nan baachisa.
Behold, it is written before me; I will not keep silence, till I have recompensed, yea, recompensed into their bosom.—
7 Kunis cubbuu keessanii fi cubbuu abbootii keessanii ti” jedha Waaqayyo. “Isaan tulluuwwan irratti aarsaa dhiʼeessanii, gaarran irratti waan na arrabsaniif, ani hojii isaanii kan duriitiif, kaffaltii guutuu isaaniifin kenna.”
Your iniquities and the iniquities of your fathers together, saith the Lord, who have burnt incense upon the mountains, and upon the hills have blasphemed me: and I will measure out their work at first into their bosom.
8 Waaqayyo akkana jedha: “Akkuma yeroo hurbuu wayinii keessa cuunfaan jirutti, namoonni, ‘Amma iyyuu eebbatu keessa jiraatii, hin balleessinaa’ jedhan sana, anis tajaajiltoota kootiif akkasuma nan godha; isaan hundas hin balleessu.
Thus hath said the Lord, As the new wine is found in the cluster of grapes, and one saith, Destroy it not, for a blessing is in it; so will I do for the sake of my servants, that I will not destroy the whole;
9 Anis Yaaqoob keessaa sanyii tokko, Yihuudaa keessaa immoo warra tulluuwwan koo dhaalan nan biqilcha; sabni koo filatamaan tulluuwwan sana dhaala; tajaajiltoonni koos achi ni jiraatu.
And I let come forth out of Jacob a seed, and out of Judah an inheritor of my mountains; and my elect shall inherit it, and my servants shall dwell there.
10 Saba koo kan na barbaaduuf Shaaroon lafa bushaayeen itti bobbaʼan, Sululli Aakoor immoo lafa loon boqotan ni taʼan.
And Sharon shall become a fold of flocks, and the valley of 'Achor a resting-place for herds, for my people that have sought me.
11 “Garuu isin warra Waaqayyoon dhiiftanii tulluu koo qulqulluu dagattan, kanneen waaqa ‘Milkii’ jedhamuuf maaddii qopheessitanii, waaqa, ‘Hiree’ jedhamuuf immoo dhibaayyuu kubbaayyaatti guuttan,
But ye who forsake the Lord, who forget my holy mountain, that set out a table for the god of Fortune, and that fill for Destiny the drink-offering.—
12 ani irbaata goraadee isinan godha; isin hundis qalamuuf gad jettu; ani isin waameen ture; isin garuu na jalaa hin owwaanne; ani dubbadheen ture; isin garuu na hin dhaggeeffanne. Isin fuuluma koo duratti waan hamaa hojjettanii waan na hin gammachiifne filattan.”
Yea, I will destine you to the sword, and all of you shall kneel down to the slaughter; because when I called, ye did not answer; when I spoke, ye did not hear; but ye did what is evil in my eyes, and that wherein I had no delight did ye choose.
13 Kanaafuu Waaqayyo Gooftaan akkana jedha: “Garboonni koo ni nyaatu; isin garuu ni beeloftu; garboonni koo ni dhugu; isin garuu ni dheebottu; garboonni koo ni gammadu; isin garuu ni qaanoftu.
Therefore thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Behold, my servants shall eat, but ye shall be hungry; behold, my servants shall drink, but ye shall be thirsty; behold, my servants shall rejoice, but ye shall be made ashamed;
14 Garboonni koo gammachuu garaa irraa maddeen ni faarfatu; isin garuu, waan garaan keessan miidhameef ni boossu; waan hafuurri keessan gaddeef ni wawwaattu.
Behold, my servants shall sing for joy of heart, but ye shall cry out from pain of heart, and from a broken spirit shall ye howl;
15 Filatamtoonni koo maqaa isin dabarfattan sana abaarsaaf itti fayyadamu; Waaqayyo Gooftaan isin fixa; garboota isaatiif garuu maqaa biraa ni kenna.
And ye shall leave behind your name for an oath unto my elect ones, when the Lord Eternal will slay thee; but his servants will he call by another name.
16 Namni lafa irratti eebbifamu kam iyyuu, Waaqa dhugaatiin eebbifama; namni lafa irratti kakatus, Waaqa dhugaatiin kakata. Rakkinni durii ni irraanfatama; ija koo duraas ni dhokataatii.
Whoever there be that blesseth himself on the earth shall bless himself by the true God; and that sweareth on the earth shall swear by the true God; because the former troubles are forgotten, and because they are hidden from my eyes.
17 “Kunoo ani, samiiwwan haaraa fi lafa haaraa nan uuma. Wanni durii hin yaadatamu; yookaan qalbii namaatti hin dhufu.
For, behold, I will create new heavens and a new earth; and the former shall not be remembered, nor come into mind;
18 Isin garuu waan ani uumutti, bara baraan gammadaa ililchaa; ani Yerusaalemin gammachuuf, saba ishee immoo ililleef nan uumaatii.
But be ye glad and rejoice unto all eternity in what I create; for, behold, I will create Jerusalem for rejoicing, and her people for gladness.
19 Ani Yerusaalemitti nan gammada; saba koottis nan gammada; siʼachi sagaleen booʼichaatii fi iyyaa ishee keessatti hin dhagaʼamu.
And I will rejoice over Jerusalem, and be glad in my people: and there shall not be heard in her any more the voice of weeping, nor the voice of complaint.
20 “Siʼachi, daaʼimni guyyaa muraasa qofa jiraatu, yookaan jaarsi umuriin isaa hanqatu tokko iyyuu ishee keessatti hin argamu; namni waggaa dhibbatti duʼu, akka waan dargaggummaan duʼeetti yaadama; namni waggaa dhibba hanqate tokko, akka waan abaarameetti hedama.
There shall no more come thence an infant of few days, nor an old man that shall not have the full length of his days; for as a lad shall one die a hundred years old; and as a sinner shall be accursed he who [dieth] at a hundred years old.
21 Namoonni mana ni ijaarratu; achi keessas ni jiraatu; wayinii dhaabbatu; ija isaas ni nyaatu.
And they shall build houses, and inhabit them; and they shall plant vineyards, and eat their fruit.
22 Siʼachi isaan mana ijaaranii namoonni biraa keessa hin jiraatan; yookaan isaan biqiltuu dhaabanii namoonni biraa hin nyaatan. Umuriin saba koo, akkuma umurii mukaa ni taʼa; warri ani filadhe, hojii harka isaaniitiin bara dheeraa ni gammadu.
They shall not build, and another inhabit; they shall not plant, and another eat; for as the days of a tree are the days of my people, and the work of their hands shall my elect wear out.
23 Isaan akkasumaan hin dadhaban yookaan ijoollee balaan eeggattu hin dhalchan; isaan sanyii isaanii wajjin saba Waaqayyo eebbisu ni taʼu.
They shall not toil in vain, nor bring forth unto an early death; for the seed of the blessed of the Lord are they, and their offspring with them.
24 Ani utuu isaan na hin waammatin nan deebisaaf; utuu isaan dubbatanii hin fixinis nan dhagaʼa.
And it shall come to pass, that before yet they call will I answer; and while they are still speaking will I hear.
25 Yeeyyii fi xobbaallaan hoolaa walii wajjin nyaatu; leenci akka sangaa okaa nyaata; biyyoon garuu soora bofaa taʼa. Isaan tulluu koo qulqulluu hunda irratti homaa hin miidhan yookaan homaa hin balleessan” jedha Waaqayyo.
The wolf and the lamb shall feed together, and the lion shall like the bullock eat straw: and the serpent—dust shall be his food. They shall not hurt nor destroy in all my holy mountain, saith the Lord.
