Isaayyaas 1
1 Mulʼata Isaayyaas ilmi Amoos bara bulchiinsa Uziyaan, bara Yootaam, bara Aahaazii fi bara Hisqiyaas keessa waaʼee Yihuudaatii fi Yerusaalem arge.
A vision of Isaiah, the sonne of Amoz, which he sawe concerning Iudah and Ierusalem: in the dayes of Vzziah, Iotham, Ahaz and Hezekiah Kings of Iudah.
2 Yaa Samiiwwan dhagaʼaa! Yaa lafa dhaggeeffadhu! Waaqayyo akkana jedhee dubbateeraatii: “Ani ijoollee horadheen guddifadhe; isaan garuu natti fincilaniiru.
Heare, O heauens, and hearken, O earth: for the Lord hath sayde, I haue nourished and brought vp children, but they haue rebelled against me.
3 Qotiyyoon gooftaa isaa, harreenis gola gooftaa isaa ni beeka; Israaʼel garuu hin beeku; sabni koo hin hubatu.”
The oxe knoweth his owner, and the asse his masters crib: but Israel hath not knowen: my people hath not vnderstand.
4 Yaa saba cubbamaa, uummata balleessaan itti baayʼate, ilmaan warra waan hamaa hojjetuu, ijoollee xuraaʼummaadhaan guutamte isiniif wayyoo! Isaan Waaqayyoon dhiisaniiru; Qulqullicha Israaʼel sana tuffatanii dugda isaanii itti garagalfataniiru.
Ah, sinfull nation, a people laden with iniquitie: a seede of the wicked, corrupt children: they haue forsaken the Lord: they haue prouoked the holy one of Israel to anger: they are gone backewarde.
5 Isin siʼachi maaliif rukutamtu? Maaliif fincila keessa jiraatu? Mataan keessan guutuun miidhameera; garaan keessan guutuunis dadhabeera.
Wherefore shoulde ye be smitten any more? for ye fall away more and more: the whole head is sicke, and the whole heart is heauie.
6 Faana miilla keessaniitii hamma gubbee mataa keessaniitti, fayyaa hin qabdan; madaa fi dirmammuun, madaan dhiigu, kan hin qulqulloofne yookaan hin maramne yookaan zayitiidhaan hin laafne.
From the sole of the foote vnto the head, there is nothing whole therein, but wounds, and swelling, and sores full of corruption: they haue not bene wrapped, nor bound vp, nor mollified with oyle.
7 Biyyi keessan duwwaa hafteerti; magaalaawwan keessan ibiddaan gubamaniiru; alagoonni fuuluma keessan duratti lafa qotiisaa keessan saamu; akkuma waan ormi ishee saameettis onti.
Your land is waste: your cities are burnt with fire: strangers deuoure your lande in your presence, and it is desolate like the ouerthrowe of strangers.
8 Intalli Xiyoon akkuma daʼannoo iddoo dhaabaa wayinii keessaatti, akkuma daasii lafa qotiisa buqqee keessaatti, akkuma magaalaa marfame tokkootti dhiifamti.
And the daughter of Zion shall remaine like a cotage in a vineyarde, like a lodge in a garden of cucumbers, and like a besieged citie.
9 Utuu Waaqayyoon Waan Hunda Dandaʼu hambaa muraasa nuuf hambisuu baatee, nu silaa akkuma Sodoom taanee, Gomoraas fakkaanna turre.
Except the Lord of hostes had reserued vnto vs, euen a small remnant: we should haue bene as Sodom, and should haue bene like vnto Gomorah.
10 Yaa bulchitoota Sodoom dubbii Waaqayyoo dhagaʼaa; yaa saba Gomoraa, Seera Waaqa keenyaa dhaggeeffadhaa!
Heare the worde of the Lord, O princes of Sodom: hearken vnto the Law of our God, O people of Gomorah.
11 Waaqayyo akkana jedha; “Baayʼinni aarsaa keessanii anaaf maali?” Ani aarsaa gubamu kan korbeeyyii hoolaatii fi horii gabbifamanii baayʼeen qaba; ani dhiiga korommii looniitti, kan xobbaallaawwan hoolaattii fi reʼeetti hin gammadu.
What haue I to doe with the multitude of your sacrifices, sayth the Lord? I am full of the burnt offerings of rams, and of the fat of fed beasts: and I desire not the blood of bullocks, nor of lambs, nor of goates.
12 Isin yommuu fuula koo duratti mulʼachuuf dhuftan, akka oobdii koo dhidhiittan eenyutu isin irraa barbaade?
When ye come to appeare before me, who required this of your hands to tread in my courts?
13 Kennaa faayidaa hin qabne fiduu dhiisaa! Ixaanni keessan na jibbisiisa. Ayyaana Baatii, Sanbataa fi yaaʼii keessan jechuunis wal gaʼii keessan hamaa sana ani hin fedhu.
Bring no more oblations, in vaine: incense is an abomination vnto me: I can not suffer your newe moones, nor Sabbaths, nor solemne dayes (it is iniquitie) nor solemne assemblies.
14 Ayyaana Baatii keessanii fi ayyaanota keessan bebbeekamoo lubbuun koo ni jibbiti. Isaan baʼaa natti taʼaniiru; anis obsuu dadhabeera.
My soule hateth your newe moones and your appointed feastes: they are a burden vnto me: I am weary to beare them.
15 Yeroo isin kadhannaaf harka keessan balʼifattan, ani ija koo isinan dhokfadha; yoo isin kadhaa baayʼee kadhattan illee ani hin dhaggeeffadhu. Harki keessan dhiigaan guutameera!
And when you shall stretch out your hands, I wil hide mine eyes from you: and though ye make many prayers, I wil not heare: for your hands are full of blood.
16 Dhiqadhaatii of qulqulleessaa. Hojii keessan hamaa sana fuula koo duraa balleessaa! Yakka hojjechuus dhiisaa;
Wash you, make you cleane: take away the euill of your workes from before mine eyes: cease to doe euill.
17 waan qajeelaa hojjechuu baradhaa! Murtii qajeelaa barbaadaa; warra hacuucame jajjabeessaa. Ijoollee abbaa hin qabneef falmaa; haadha hiyyeessaatiif dhaabadhaa.
Learne to doe well: seeke iudgement, relieue the oppressed: iudge the fatherlesse and defend the widowe.
18 Waaqayyo akkana jedha; “Kottaa wal qorraa; cubbuun keessan yoo akka bildiimaa taʼe iyyuu, inni addaatee akka cabbii ni taʼa; yoo akka alalaa diimate iyyuu, akka suufii ni addaata.
Come nowe, and let vs reason together, sayth the Lord: though your sinnes were as crimsin, they shalbe made white as snowe: though they were red like skarlet, they shalbe as wooll.
19 Isin yoo fedhii qabaattanii ajajamtan, waan lafti baaftu filatamaa ni nyaattu;
If ye consent and obey, ye shall eate the good things of the land.
20 garuu yoo diddanii finciltan goraadeetu isin nyaata.” Afaan Waaqayyoo waan kana dubbateeraatii.
But if ye refuse and be rebellious, ye shalbe deuoured with the sword: for the mouth of the Lord hath spoken it.
21 Akka magaalaan amanamtuun sun sagaagaltuu taate ilaalaa! Isheen dur murtii qajeelaadhaan guutamtee qajeelummaan ishee keessa jiraata ture; amma immoo namoota nama ajjeesantu ishee keessa jiraata!
Howe is the faithfull citie become an harlot? it was full of iudgement, and iustice lodged therein, but now they are murtherers.
22 Meetiin kee ligidaaʼeera; daadhiin wayinii kee filatamaan bishaaniin makameera.
Thy siluer is become drosse: thy wine is mixt with water.
23 Bulchitoonni kee finciltoota; michuu hattuuwwanii ti; isaan hundinuu mattaʼaa jaallatu; kennaas akka malee barbaadu. Isaan ijoollee abbaa hin qabneef hin falman; himata haadha hiyyeessaa hin dhaggeeffatan.
Thy Princes are rebellious and companions of theeues: euery one loueth giftes, and followeth after rewards: they iudge not the fatherlesse, neither doeth the widowes cause come before them.
24 Kanaafuu Gooftaan, Waaqayyoon Waan Hunda Dandaʼu, Jabaan Israaʼel sun akkana jedha: “Ani amajaajota koo irraa boqonnaa nan argadha; diinota koos haaloo nan baafadha.
Therefore sayth the Lord God of hostes, the mightie one of Israel, Ah, I will ease me of mine aduersaries, and auenge me of mine enemies.
25 Ani harka koo sitti nan deebisa; ligidaaʼummaa kees akka malutti sirraa nan haqa; xurii kee hundas sirraa nan balleessa.
Then I will turne mine hand vpon thee, and burne out thy drosse, till it be pure, and take away all thy tinne.
26 Ani akkuma bara durii abbootii murtii iddootti, akkuma jalqabaatti gorsitoota kee illee siifin deebisa. Ergasii ati magaalaa qajeelummaa, magaalaa amanamtuu jedhamtee ni waamamta.”
And I will restore thy iudges as at the first, and thy counsellers as at the beginning: afterward shalt thou be called a citie of righteousnes, and a faithfull citie.
27 Xiyoon murtii qajeelaadhaan, qalbii jijjiirrattoonni ishee immoo qajeelummaadhaan furamu.
Zion shall be redeemed in iudgement, and they that returne in her, in iustice.
28 Finciltoonnii fi cubbamoonni garuu ni caccabu; warri Waaqayyoon dhiisanis ni badu.
And the destruction of the transgressers and of the sinners shalbe together: and they that forsake the Lord, shalbe consumed.
29 “Isin sababii muka qilxuu itti gammaddan sanaatiif ni qaanoftu; sababii iddoo biqiltuu filattan sanaatiif immoo ni salphattu.
For they shalbe confounded for the okes, which ye haue desired, and ye shall be ashamed of the gardens, that ye haue chosen.
30 Isin akka qilxuu baalli irraa harcaʼee, akka iddoo biqiltuu bishaan hin qabnee ni taatu.
For ye shalbe as an oke, whose leafe fadeth: and as a garden that hath no water.
31 Namni jabaan akkuma huubaa, hojiin isaas akkuma qaanqee taʼa; isaan lachuu walumaan gubatu; namni ibidda sana dhaamsus hin jiru.”
And the strong shall be as towe, and the maker thereof, as a sparke: and they shall both burne together, and none shall quench them.
