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 Jehovah: Heaven is my throne, And the earth my footstool; Where is the house that ye can build me, And where is the 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.
For all these things hath my hand made; By it do all these things exist, saith Jehovah. But to this man will I look, Even to him who is humble and of a contrite spirit, And who trembleth at my word.
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 slayeth an ox killeth a man; He that sacrificeth a lamb beheadeth a dog; He that maketh an oblation offereth swine's blood; He that burneth incense blesseth an idol. Yea, they have chosen their own ways, And in their abominations their souls delight.
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.”
I also will choose their calamities; What they dread I will bring upon them; Because I called, and no one answered, I spake, and they did not hear; But they did what is evil in my sight, And chose that in which I have no delight.
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 Jehovah, Ye that tremble at his word! “Your brethren that hate you, And thrust you out for my name's sake, have said, “May Jehovah be glorified, that we may see 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 tumult from the city! A voice from the temple! The voice of Jehovah, rendering recompense to his enemies!
7 “Isheen utuu hin ciniinsifatin, ni deessi; utuu miixuun daʼumsaa ishee hin qabatin, ilma deessi.
Before she was in travail, she brought forth, Before her pangs came, she was delivered of a son.
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 heard such a thing? Who hath seen such things? Is a country brought forth in a day? Is a nation born at once? For as soon as Zion was in travail, she 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 I bring to the birth, and not cause to bring forth, saith Jehovah; Shall I, who beget, restrain the birth? saith thy God.
10 “Isin warri ishee jaallattan hundi, Yerusaalem wajjin gammadaa; isheefis ililchaa; isin warri isheef boossan hundi, guddisaatii ishee wajjin gammadaa.
Rejoice ye with Jerusalem, And exult for her, all ye that love her! Be very joyful with her, all ye that mourn for her!
11 Isin harma ishee kan nama jajjabeessu sana hootanii ni quuftuutii; ulfina ishee guddaa sana irraas gammachuudhaan ni dhugdu.”
That ye may suck, and be satisfied, from the breast of her consolations, That ye may suck and be delighted with the fulness 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 Jehovah: Behold, I will bring prosperity to her like a river, And the wealth of the nations like an overflowing stream; Ye shall suck at the breast, Ye shall be carried on the arm, And on the knees shall ye be dandled.
13 Akkuma haati daaʼima ishee urursitu sana, anis isinan urursa; isinis Yerusaalem keessatti ni ururfamtu.”
As one whom his mother comforteth, So will I comfort you; And in Jerusalem shall ye be comforted.
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.
Ye shall see, and your heart shall rejoice, And your bones shall flourish like a green plant, And the hand of Jehovah shall be manifested to his servants, And be moved with indignation against 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, Jehovah cometh with fire, Like a whirlwind are his chariots, To breathe forth his anger in a glowing heat, And his rebuke in flames of fire.
16 Waaqayyo ibiddaa fi goraadee isaatiin namoota hunda irratti murtii raawwataatii; namoonni Waaqayyoon ajjeefaman ni baayʼatu.
For with fire will Jehovah contend, And with his sword, with all flesh, And many shall be the slain of Jehovah.
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 who sanctify and purify themselves in the groves, Following one in the midst, Who eat swine's flesh, and the abomination, and the mouse. They shall all perish together, saith Jehovah.
18 “Ani waanan hojii fi yaada isaanii beekuuf, sabootaa fi afaanota hunda walitti qabuuf jedhee nan dhufa; isaanis dhufanii ulfina koo ni argu.
For I know their works, and their thoughts; The time cometh to gather all nations and tongues together; They shall come, and behold 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 give a sign among them, And of those that escape I will send to the nations, To Tarshish, Phul, and Lud, who draw the bow, to Tubal and Javan, To the distant coasts, who never heard my name, And who never saw my glory; And they shall declare my glory among the nations.
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 From all the nations, an offering to Jehovah, Upon horses, and in chariots, and in litters, and upon mules and dromedaries, To my holy mountain, Jerusalem, saith Jehovah, As the sons of Israel bring their gifts In pure vessels to the house of Jehovah.
21 Anis isaan keessaa namoota tokko tokko akka isaan lubootaa fi Lewwota taʼaniif nan filadha” jedha Waaqayyo.
And of them will I also take For priests and for Levites, saith Jehovah.
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 make, Endure before me, saith Jehovah, So shall your race and your name endure.
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 it shall be, from new moon to new moon, And from sabbath to sabbath, That all flesh shall come and worship before me, saith Jehovah.
24 “Isaanis gad baʼanii reeffa warra natti fincilanii ni ilaalu; raammoon isaanii hin duʼu; ibiddi isaaniis hin dhaamu; isaanis sanyii namaa hundaaf jibbisiisoo taʼu.”
Then shall they go forth and see The dead bodies of the men that rebelled against me! For their worm shall not die, And their fire shall not be quenched, And they shall be an abhorrence to all flesh.
