Isaayyaas 66
1 Waaqayyo akkana jedha: “Samiin teessoo koo ti; laftis ejjeta miilla kootii ti. Manni isin naaf ijaartan meerre? Lafti boqonnaa kootii eessa?
Thus saith the Lord: Heaven is my throne, and the earth my footstool: what is this house that you will build to me? and what is this place of my rest?
2 Waan kana hunda harki koo hin hojjennee? Kanaafuu wantoonni kunneen hundi kanuma koo ti” jedha Waaqayyo. “Ani garuu nama gad of qabuu fi kan garaa isaa keessatti gaabbee dubbii kootiin hollatuu nan ilaala.
My hand made all these things, and all these things were made, saith the Lord. But to whom shall I have respect, but to him that is poor and little, and of a contrite spirit, and that trembleth at my words?
3 Garuu namni korma qalu kam iyyuu akkuma nama nama ajjeesu tokkoo ti; namni xobbaallaa hoolaa qalu kam iyyuu akkuma nama morma saree cabsu tokkoo ti; namni aarsaa midhaanii dhiʼeessu kam iyyuu akkuma nama dhiiga booyyee dhiʼeessu tokkoo ti; namni ixaana yaadannoo aarsu kam iyyuus akkuma nama waaqa tolfamaa waaqeffatu tokkoo ti. Isaan karaa ofii isaanii filataniiru; lubbuun isaaniis xuraaʼummaa isaaniitti gammaddi.
He that sacrificeth an ox, is as if he slew a man: he that killeth a sheep in sacrifice, as if he should brain a dog: he that offereth an oblation, as if he should offer swine’s blood; he that remembereth incense, as if he should bless an idol. All these things have they chosen in their ways, and their soul is delighted in their abominations.
4 Kanaafuu ani gidiraa isaaniif nan fila; waan isaan akka malee sodaatanis isaanitti nan fida. Yeroo ani waametti namni tokko iyyuu na jalaa hin owwaanne; yeroo ani dubbadhetti namni tokko iyyuu hin dhaggeeffanneetii. Isaan fuula koo duratti waan hamaa hojjetanii waan na hin gammachiifne illee filatan.”
Wherefore I also will choose their mockeries, and will bring upon them the things they feared: because I called, and there was none that would answer; I have spoken, and they heard not; and they have done evil in my eyes, and have chosen the things that displease me.
5 Warri dubbii isaatiin hollattan dubbii Waaqayyoo dhagaʼaa: “Obboleeyyan keessan warri sababii maqaa kootiif isin jibbanii isin ariʼan sun akkana jedhan; ‘Akka nu gammachuu keessan arginuuf, mee Waaqayyo haa ulfaatu!’ Taʼus isaan ni qaanaʼu.
Hear the word of the Lord, you that tremble at his word: Your brethren that hate you, and cast you out for my name’s sake, have said: Let the Lord be glorified, and we shall see in your joy: but they shall be confounded.
6 Huursaa magaalaa keessaa sana dhagaʼaa; waca mana qulqullummaa keessaa dhagaʼaa! Wanni kun sagalee Waaqayyoo kan yeroo inni gatii diinota isaa hundaaf malu isaaniif kennuu ti.
A voice of the people from the city, a voice from the temple, the voice of the Lord that rendereth recompense to his enemies.
7 “Isheen utuu hin ciniinsifatin, ni deessi; utuu miixuun daʼumsaa ishee hin qabatin, ilma deessi.
Before she was in labour, she brought forth; before her time came to be delivered, she brought forth a man child.
8 Eenyutu takkumaa waan akkasii dhagaʼe? Waan takkumaa akkasii eenyutu arge? Biyyi tokko guyyuma tokkotti dhalachuu dandeessii? Yookaan sabni yeruma tokkotti biqiluu dandaʼaa? Xiyoon garuu akkuma ciniinsifatteen, ijoollee ishee deesse.
Who hath ever heard such a thing? and who hath seen the like to this? shall the earth bring forth in one day? or shall a nation be brought forth at once, because Sion hath been in labour, and hath brought forth her children?
9 Ani yeroo daʼumsaatiin nama gaʼee daʼuu nan dhowwaa?” jedha Waaqayyo. “Ani daʼumsaan gaʼee gadameessa nan cufaa?” jedha Waaqni kee.
Shall not I that make others to bring forth children, myself bring forth, saith the Lord? shall I, that give generation to others, be barren, saith the Lord thy God?
10 “Isin warri ishee jaallattan hundi, Yerusaalem wajjin gammadaa; isheefis ililchaa; isin warri isheef boossan hundi, guddisaatii ishee wajjin gammadaa.
Rejoice with Jerusalem, and be glad with her, all you that love her: rejoice for joy with her, all you that mourn for her.
11 Isin harma ishee kan nama jajjabeessu sana hootanii ni quuftuutii; ulfina ishee guddaa sana irraas gammachuudhaan ni dhugdu.”
That you may suck, and be filled with the breasts of her consolations: that you may milk out, and flow with delights, from the abundance of her glory.
12 Waaqayyo akkana jedhaatii: “Kunoo ani nagaa akkuma bishaan lagaa, badhaadhummaa sabootaas akkuma laga yaaʼuu isheef nan dhangalaasa; isin ni hootu; harka ishee irratti ni baatamtu; gudeeda ishee irra illee ni taphattu.
For thus saith the Lord: Behold I will bring upon her as it were a river of peace, and as an overflowing torrent the glory of the Gentiles, which you shall suck; you shall be carried at the breasts, and upon the knees they shall caress you.
13 Akkuma haati daaʼima ishee urursitu sana, anis isinan urursa; isinis Yerusaalem keessatti ni ururfamtu.”
As one whom the mother caresseth, so will I comfort you, and you shall be comforted in Jerusalem.
14 Isin yommuu waan kana argitanitti garaan keessan ni gammada; lafeen keessan akka margaa ni haaromfama; harki Waaqayyoo akka garboota isaa wajjin jirus ni beekama; dheekkamsi isaa garuu amajaajota isaa irratti ni mulʼifama.
You shall see and your heart shall rejoice, and your bones shall flourish like an herb, and the hand of the Lord shall be known to his servants, and he shall be angry with his enemies.
15 Kunoo, Waaqayyo ibiddaan ni dhufa; gaariiwwan isaas akkuma bubbee hamaa ti; inni aarii isaa dhaʼichaan, ifannaa isaa immoo arraba ibiddaatiin gad buusa.
For behold the Lord will come with fire, and his chariots are like a whirlwind, to render his wrath in indignation, and his rebuke with flames of fire.
16 Waaqayyo ibiddaa fi goraadee isaatiin namoota hunda irratti murtii raawwataatii; namoonni Waaqayyoon ajjeefaman ni baayʼatu.
For the Lord shall judge by fire, and by his sword unto all flesh, and the slain of the Lord shall be many.
17 “Warri iddoo biqiltuu seenuuf jedhanii, isa warra foon booyyee, foon hantuutaatii fi wantoota jibbisiisoo biraa nyaatan gidduutti argamu duukaa buʼuudhaan addaan of baasanii of qulqulleessan wajjin barbadeeffamu” jedha Waaqayyo.
They that were sanctified, and thought themselves clean in the gardens behind the gate within, they that did eat swine’s flesh, and the abomination, and the mouse: they shall be consumed together, saith the Lord.
18 “Ani waanan hojii fi yaada isaanii beekuuf, sabootaa fi afaanota hunda walitti qabuuf jedhee nan dhufa; isaanis dhufanii ulfina koo ni argu.
But I know their works, and their thoughts: I come that I may gather them together with all nations and tongues: and they shall come and shall see my glory.
19 “Ani gidduu isaanii mallattoo nan kaaʼa; hambaawwan keessaa namoota tokko tokko gara sabootaa jechuunis gara Tarshiish, Phuulii fi gara Luud warra xiyyaan lolan, gara Tuubaalii fi Yaawaan akkasumas gara biyyoota bishaan gidduu fagoo jiran kanneen waaʼee koo hin dhagaʼinii yookaan ulfina koo hin arginiitti nan erga. Isaanis saboota gidduutti ulfina koo ni labsu.
And I will set a sign among them, and I will send of them that shall be saved, to the Gentiles into the sea, into Africa, and Lydia them that draw the bow: into Italy, and Greece, to the islands afar off, to them that have not heard of me, and have not seen my glory. And they shall declare my glory to the Gentiles:
20 Isaanis saboota hunda keessaa obboloota keessan hunda akkuma aarsaa Waaqayyoof dhiʼeeffamu tokkootti fardeeniin, gaariiwwaniin, harrootaan, gaangolii fi gaalawwaniin gara tulluu koo qulqulluutti, gara Yerusaalem ni fidu” jedha Waaqayyo. “Isaanis akkuma Israaʼeloonni miʼa akka seeraatti qulqulluu taʼeen aarsaa midhaan isaanii gara mana qulqullummaa Waaqayyootti fidan sanatti jara fidu.
And they shall bring all your brethren out of all nations for a gift to the Lord, upon horses, and in chariots, and in litters, and on mules, and in coaches, to my holy mountain Jerusalem, saith the Lord, as if the children of Israel should bring an offering in a clean vessel into the house of the Lord.
21 Anis isaan keessaa namoota tokko tokko akka isaan lubootaa fi Lewwota taʼaniif nan filadha” jedha Waaqayyo.
And I will take of them to be priests, and Levites, saith the Lord.
22 “Akkuma samiin haaraanii fi lafti haaraan ani uumu itti fufanii fuula koo dura jiraatan sana maqaa fi sanyiin keessan itti fufanii jiraatu” jedha Waaqayyo.
For as the new heavens, and the new earth, which I will make to stand before me, saith the Lord: so shall your seed stand, and your name.
23 “Ayyaana Baatii tokkoo hamma Ayyaana Baatii kaaniitti, Sanbata tokkoo hamma Sanbata kaaniittis sanyiin namaa hundi dhufee fuula koo duratti ni sagada” jedha Waaqayyo.
And there shall be month after month, and sabbath after sabbath: and all flesh shall come to adore before my face, saith the Lord.
24 “Isaanis gad baʼanii reeffa warra natti fincilanii ni ilaalu; raammoon isaanii hin duʼu; ibiddi isaaniis hin dhaamu; isaanis sanyii namaa hundaaf jibbisiisoo taʼu.”
And they shall go out, and see the carcasses of the men that have transgressed against me: their worm shall not die, and their fire shall not be quenched: and they shall be a loathsome sight to all flesh.
