Ermiyaas 15
1 Waaqayyo akkana naan jedhe; “Yoo Musee fi Saamuʼeel fuula koo dura dhaabatan iyyuu garaan koo gara saba kanaatti hin deebiʼu. Fuula koo duraa isaan ariʼi! Isaan haa deeman!
Then sayde the Lord vnto me, Though Moses and Samuel stoode before mee, yet mine affection coulde not be toward this people: cast them out of my sight, and let them depart.
2 Yoo isaan, ‘Eessa dhaqna?’ jedhanii si gaafatan immoo akkana jedhii isaanitti himi; ‘Waaqayyo akkana jedha: “‘Namni duʼaaf ramadame gara duʼaa, namni goraadeedhaaf ramadame gara goraadee, namni beelaaf ramadame gara beelaa, namni boojuudhaaf ramadame immoo gara boojuu dhaqa.’
And if they say vnto thee, Whither shall we depart? then tell them, Thus saith the Lord, Such as are appointed to death, vnto death: and such as are for the sworde, to the sworde: and such as are for the famine, to the famine: and such as are for the captiuitie, to the captiuitie.
3 “Ani waan isaan balleessu gosa afur isaanitti nan erga” jedha Waaqayyo. “Akka isaan ajjeesuuf goraadee, akka isaan harkisaniif saroota, akka isaan nyaatanii fixaniif immoo allaattiiwwan samiitii fi bineensota lafaa isaanitti nan erga.
And I wil appoint ouer them foure kindes, sayth the Lord, the sworde to slay, and the dogs to teare in pieces, and the soules of the heauen, and the beastes of the earth to deuoure, and to destroy.
4 Ani sababii Minaaseen ilmi Hisqiyaas mootichi Yihuudaa Yerusaalem keessatti hojjete waan sanaatiif fuula mootummoota lafa irraa hunda duratti jibbamtoota isaan nan godha.
I will scatter them also in all kingdomes of the earth, because of Manasseh the sonne of Hezekiah King of Iudah, for that which he did in Ierusalem.
5 “Yaa Yerusaalem, eenyutu garaa siif laafa? Eenyutu siif booʼa? Eenyutu si dubbisuuf sitti gora?
Who shall then haue pitie vpon thee, O Ierusalem? or who shalbe sorie for thee? or who shall go to pray for thy peace?
6 Ati na dhiifteerta; ittuma fuftees duubatti deebiʼaa jirta” jedha Waaqayyo. “Kanaafuu ani harka koo sitti hiixadhee sin balleessa; ani siʼachi siif naʼuu hin dandaʼu.
Thou hast forsaken me, sayth the Lord, and gone backward: therefore wil I stretch out mine hand against thee, and destroy thee: for I am weary with repenting.
7 Ani karrawwan magaalaa biyyattii duratti, qorbiidhaan qilleensatti isaan nan kenna. Ani saba kootti gaddaa fi badiisa nan fida; isaan karaa isaanii irraa hin deebineetii.
And I wil scatter them with the fanne in the gates of the earth I haue wasted, and destroyed my people, yet they would not returne from their wayes.
8 Ani haadhota hiyyeessaa isaanii cirracha galaanaa caalaa nan baayʼisa. Ani haadhota dargaggoota isaaniitti, guyyuma saafaadhaan waan isaan balleessu tokko nan fida; ani goolii fi naasuu akkuma tasaa isaanitti nan gadhiisa.
Their widdowes are increased by mee aboue the sande of the sea: I haue brought vpon them, and against the assembly of the yong men a destroyer at noone day: I haue caused him to fal vpon them, and the citie suddenly, and speedily.
9 Haati ilmaan torbaa gaggabdee hafuura dhumaa baafatti. Aduun ishee guyyuma adiidhaan dhiiti; isheenis salphattee namaa gad taati. Ani hambaawwan isaanii fuula diinota isaanii duratti goraadeef dabarsee nan kenna” jedha Waaqayyo.
Shee that hath borne seuen, hath bene made weake: her heart hath failed: the sunne hath failed her, whiles it was day: she hath bene confounded, and ashamed, and the residue of them will I deliuer vnto the sworde before their enemies, sayth the Lord.
10 Wayyoo yaa haadha ko, kan ana nama biyyattii guutuu loluu fi falmu deesse? Ani hin liqeessine yookaan hin liqeeffanne; namni hundi garuu na abaara.
Wo is mee, my mother, that thou hast borne mee, a contentious man, and a man that striueth with the whole earth I haue neither lent on vsury, nor men haue lent vnto me on vsurie: yet euery one doeth curse me.
11 Waaqayyo akkana jedhe; “Ani dhugumaan kaayyoo gaariidhaaf sin baraara; Ani dhugumaan yeroo rakkinaatii fi gidiraatti, akka diinonni kee si kadhatan nan godha.
The Lord sayd, Surely thy remnant shall haue wealth: surely I will cause thine enemie to intreate thee in the time of trouble, and in the time of affliction.
12 “Namni kam iyyuu sibiila, sibiila kaabaa dhufe yookaan naasii cabsuu ni dandaʼaa?
Shall the yron breake the yron, and the brasse that commeth from the North?
13 “Sababii cubbuu kee hunda kan biyya kee guutuu keessa jiru sanaatiif ani badhaadhummaa keetii fi qabeenya kee toluma boojuuf nan kenna.
Thy substance and thy treasures wil I giue to be spoyled without gaine, and that for all thy sinnes euen in all thy borders.
14 Sababii dheekkamsi koo ibidda ishee gubu qabsiisuuf, ani biyya ati hin beekne keessatti diinota keetiif sin garboomsa.”
And I wil make thee to go with thine enemies into a land that thou knowest not: for a fire is kindled in mine anger, which shall burne you.
15 Yaa Waaqayyo situ beeka; na yaadadhu; na tiksis. Warra na ariʼatan haaloo naaf baʼi. Ati obsa guddaa qabdaatii na hin balleessin; akka ani siif jedhee tuffatamu beeki.
O Lord, thou knowest, remember me, and visite me, and reuenge me of my persecuters: take mee not away in the continuance of thine anger: know that for thy sake I haue suffered rebuke.
16 Dubbiin kee ni argame; anis nan nyaadhe; innis na gammachiise; gammachuu garaa kootiis taʼe; yaa Waaqayyo, Gooftaa Waan Hunda Dandeessu, ani maqaa keetiin nan waamamaatii.
Thy wordes were founde by me, and I did eate them, and thy worde was vnto me the ioy and reioycing of mine heart: for thy Name is called vpon me, O Lord God of hostes.
17 Ani gonkumaa tuuta fandalaltootaa wajjin hin teenye; gonkumaa isaan wajjin hin gammanne; sababii harki kee narra turee fi sababii ati aariidhaan na guutteef ani kophaa koo nan taaʼe.
I sate not in the assembly of the mockers, neither did I reioyce, but sate alone because of thy plague: for thou hast filled me with indignation.
18 Rakkinni koo maaliif dhuma dhabe? Madaan koos maaliif fayyuu dide? Ati akka laga nama gowwoomsuu akka burqaa goguus natti taataa?
Why is mine heauines continuall? and my plague desperate and cannot be healed? why art thou vnto me as a lyar, and as waters that faile?
19 Kanaafuu Waaqayyo akkana jedha: “Yoo ati qalbii jijjiirratte, ani akka ati na tajaajiltuuf deebisee sin dhaaba; Ati yoo dubbii faayidaa hin qabne dhiiftee dubbii faayidaa qabu dubbatte afaan naaf taata. Sabni kun gara keetti haa deebiʼuu malee ati gara isaaniitti deebiʼuu hin qabdu.
Therefore thus saith the Lord, If thou returne, then wil I bring thee againe, and thou shalt stand before me: and if thou take away the precious from the vile, thou shalt be according to my worde: let them returne vnto thee, but returne not thou vnto them.
20 Ani saba kanaaf dallaa dhagaa, dallaa naasii kan jabeeffamee ijaarame sin taasisa; isaan si lolu; garuu si hin moʼatan; ani si baraaruu fi si baasuuf si wajjin jiraatii” jedha Waaqayyo.
And I will make thee vnto this people a strong brasen wall, and they shall fight against thee, but they shall not preuaile against thee: for I am with thee to saue thee and to deliuer thee, saith ye Lord.
21 “Ani harka namoota hamoo jalaa sin baasa; harka warra gara jabeeyyii jalaas sin fura.”
And I will deliuer thee out of the hand of the wicked, and I will redeeme thee out of the hand of the tyrants.
