Ermiyaas 25
1 Bara Yehooyaaqiim ilmi Yosiyaas mootii Yihuudaa ture keessaa waggaa afuraffaatti jechuunis bara mootummaa Nebukadnezar mooticha Baabilon keessa waggaa tokkoffaatti dubbiin waaʼee saba Yihuudaa hundaatiif gara Ermiyaas dhufe kanaa dha.
The word that came to Jeremiah concerning all the people of Judah, in the fourth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Judah (this was the first year of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon),
2 Kanaafuu Ermiyaas raajichi saba Yihuudaa hundaa fi warra Yerusaalem keessa jiraatan hundaan akkana jedhe:
which Jeremiah the prophet spoke to all the people of Judah, and to all the inhabitants of Jerusalem:
3 Waggaa kudha sadaffaa bara mootummaa Yosiyaas ilma Aamoon mooticha Yihuudaatii jalqabee hamma guyyaa harʼaatti jechuunis waggaa digdamii sadii guutuu dubbiin Waaqayyoo gara koo dhufeera; anis irra deddeebiʼee isinitti himeera; isin garuu hin dhaggeeffanne.
From the thirteenth year of Josiah the son of Amon, king of Judah, even to this day, these twenty-three years, Yahweh’s word has come to me, and I have spoken to you, rising up early and speaking; but you have not listened.
4 Yoo Waaqayyo raajota isaa tajaajiltoota hunda ammumaa amma isinitti erge iyyuu, isin hin dhaggeeffanne yookaan xiyyeeffannaa tokko iyyuu hin kennineef.
Yahweh has sent to you all his servants the prophets, rising up early and sending them (but you have not listened or inclined your ear to hear),
5 Isaanis akkana jedhan; “Egaa tokkoon tokkoon keessan karaa keessan jalʼaa fi hojii keessan hamaa sana irraa deebiʼaa; yoos isin biyya Waaqayyo isinii fi abbootii keessaniif bara baraan kenne keessa jiraachuu ni dandeessu.
saying, “Return now everyone from his evil way, and from the evil of your doings, and dwell in the land that Yahweh has given to you and to your fathers, from of old and even forever more.
6 Isaan tajaajiluu fi isaan waaqeffachuuf jettanii waaqota biraa duukaa hin buʼinaa; waanuma harki keessan hojjeteen dheekkamsaaf na hin kakaasinaa. Yoos ani isin hin miidhu.”
Don’t go after other gods to serve them or worship them, and don’t provoke me to anger with the work of your hands; then I will do you no harm.”
7 “Isin garuu na hin dhaggeeffanne; waanuma harki keessan hojjeteen dheekkamsaaf na kakaaftan; mataa keessanittis miidhaa fiddan” jedha Waaqayyo.
“Yet you have not listened to me,” says Yahweh, “that you may provoke me to anger with the work of your hands to your own hurt.”
8 Kanaafuu Waaqayyo Waan Hunda Dandaʼu akkana jedhe: “Sababii isin dubbii kootiif hin ajajaminiif,
Therefore Yahweh of Armies says: “Because you have not heard my words,
9 ani saboota biyya kaabaa hundaa fi garbicha koo Nebukadnezar mooticha Baabilon walitti qabee biyya kanatti, jiraattota isheettii fi saboota naannoo ishee jiraatan hundatti nan kaasa; guutumaan guutuutti isaan nan balleessa; waan qaanii, waan tuffiitii fi waan bara baraan one isaan nan godha” jedha Waaqayyo.
behold, I will send and take all the families of the north,” says Yahweh, “and I will send to Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon, my servant, and will bring them against this land, and against its inhabitants, and against all these nations around. I will utterly destroy them, and make them an astonishment, and a hissing, and perpetual desolations.
10 “Ani sagalee ililleetii fi gammachuu, sagalee misirrittiitii fi misirrichaa sagalee dhagaa daakuutii fi ifa ibsaa isaan keessaa nan balleessa.
Moreover I will take from them the voice of mirth and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom and the voice of the bride, the sound of the millstones, and the light of the lamp.
11 Biyyi kun guutuun barbadooftee onti; saboonni kunneenis waggaa torbaatama mooticha Baabiloniitiif garboomu.
This whole land will be a desolation, and an astonishment; and these nations will serve the king of Babylon seventy years.
12 “Garuu erga waggaan torbaatamni sun dhumee booddee ani mooticha Baabiloniitii fi saba isaa, biyya Baabilonotaas sababii yakka isaaniitiif nan adaba; biyyattiis bara baraan nan onsa” jedha Waaqayyo.
“It will happen, when seventy years are accomplished, that I will punish the king of Babylon and that nation,” says Yahweh, “for their iniquity. I will make the land of the Chaldeans desolate forever.
13 “Ani waanan biyyattii irratti dubbadhe hunda, waan kitaaba kana keessatti barreeffamee fi waan Ermiyaas saboota hundatti raajii dubbate hunda biyya sanatti nan fida.
I will bring on that land all my words which I have pronounced against it, even all that is written in this book, which Jeremiah has prophesied against all the nations.
14 Isaan mataan isaanii iyyuu saboota hedduu fi mootota gurguddoof ni garboomu; anis akkuma hojii isaaniittii fi akkuma hojii harka isaaniitti gatii isaaniif malu nan kennaaf.”
For many nations and great kings will make bondservants of them, even of them. I will recompense them according to their deeds, and according to the work of their hands.”
15 Waaqayyo Waaqni Israaʼel akkana naan jedhe: “Xoofoo daadhii wayinii dheekkamsa kootiitiin guutame kana ana harkaa fuudhiitii saboota ani itti si ergu hunda obaasi.
For Yahweh, the God of Israel, says to me: “Take this cup of the wine of wrath from my hand, and cause all the nations to whom I send you to drink it.
16 Isaanis yeroo isa dhuganitti ni gatantaru; sababii goraadee ani isaan gidduutti ergu sanaatiifis ni maraatu.”
They will drink, and reel back and forth, and be insane, because of the sword that I will send among them.”
17 Kanaafuu ani xoofoo sana harka Waaqayyootii fuudhee akka saboonni inni itti na erge hundi dhugan nan godhe:
Then I took the cup at Yahweh’s hand, and made all the nations to drink, to whom Yahweh had sent me:
18 Kunis akka Yerusaalemii fi magaalaawwan Yihuudaa, mootonnii fi qondaaltonni ishee akkuma harʼa taʼanii jiran kana barbadeeffamanii waan salphinaa, waan tuffiitii fi waan abaarsaa taʼaniifii dha;
Jerusalem, and the cities of Judah, with its kings and its princes, to make them a desolation, an astonishment, a hissing, and a curse, as it is today;
19 Faraʼoon mootichi Gibxi, tajaajiltoonni isaa, qondaaltonni isaatii fi sabni isaa hundi,
Pharaoh king of Egypt, with his servants, his princes, and all his people;
20 namoonni biyya ormaa kanneen achi jiran hundi, mootonni Uuzi hundi, mootonni Filisxeemotaa hundi jechuunis warri Eqroon, warri Gaazaa, warri Ashqaloonii fi sabni Ashdooditti hafee hundi,
and all the mixed people, and all the kings of the land of Uz, all the kings of the Philistines, Ashkelon, Gaza, Ekron, and the remnant of Ashdod;
21 Edoom, Moʼaabii fi Amoon,
Edom, Moab, and the children of Ammon;
22 mootonni Xiiroosii fi Siidoonaa hundi, mootonni biyyoota qarqara galaanaa warri galaana gama jiraatan,
and all the kings of Tyre, all the kings of Sidon, and the kings of the isle which is beyond the sea;
23 Dedaan, Teemaan, Buuzii fi warri biyya fagoo jiraatan hundi,
Dedan, Tema, Buz, and all who have the corners of their beard cut off;
24 mootonni Arabaa hundii fi mootonni Namoota Ormaa kanneen gammoojjii keessa jiraatan hundi,
and all the kings of Arabia, all the kings of the mixed people who dwell in the wilderness;
25 mootonni Zimrii, kan Eelaamii fi kan Meedee hundi,
and all the kings of Zimri, all the kings of Elam, and all the kings of the Medes;
26 mootonni biyyoota Kaabaa kanneen dhiʼoo fi fagoo, wal duraa duubaan jechuunis mootonni lafa irra jiran hundi daadhii sana dhuganiiru. Hunda isaanii booddee immoo mootiin Sheeshaakiis ni dhuga.
and all the kings of the north, far and near, one with another; and all the kingdoms of the world, which are on the surface of the earth. The king of Sheshach will drink after them.
27 “Ergasii akkana isaaniin jedhi; ‘Waaqayyo Waan Hunda Dandaʼu, Waaqni Israaʼel sun akkana jedha: Sababii goraadee ani isin gidduutti erguu sanaatiifis dhugaa, machaaʼaa, hoqqisaa; akka lammata ol hin kaaneefis kukkufaa.’
“You shall tell them, ‘Yahweh of Armies, the God of Israel says: “Drink, and be drunk, vomit, fall, and rise no more, because of the sword which I will send among you.”’
28 Yoo isaan xoofoo kana si harkaa fuudhanii dhuguu didan garuu akkana jedhiin; ‘Waaqayyo Waan Hunda Dandaʼu akkana jedha: Isin dhuguu qabdu!
It shall be, if they refuse to take the cup at your hand to drink, then you shall tell them, ‘Yahweh of Armies says: “You shall surely drink.
29 Kunoo, ani magaalaa Maqaa kootiin waamamutti balaa buusuu jalqabeera; isin immoo utuu hin adabamin haftuu ree? Isin utuu hin adabamin hin haftan; ani warra lafa irra jiraatan hundatti goraadee nan waamaatii, jedha Waaqayyo Waan Hunda Dandaʼu.’
For, behold, I begin to work evil at the city which is called by my name; and should you be utterly unpunished? You will not be unpunished; for I will call for a sword on all the inhabitants of the earth, says Yahweh of Armies.”’
30 “Kanaafuu dubbii kana hunda isaanitti raajiitii akkana jedhiin: “‘Waaqayyo ol gubbaadhaa guunguma; iddoo jireenya isaa qulqulluu sanaa qaqawweessaʼee biyya isaattis guddisee ni guunguma. Inni akkuma warra ija wayinii dhidhiitaniitti warra lafa irra jiraatan hundatti ni lallaba.
“Therefore prophesy against them all these words, and tell them, “‘Yahweh will roar from on high, and utter his voice from his holy habitation. He will mightily roar against his fold. He will give a shout, as those who tread grapes, against all the inhabitants of the earth.
31 Wacni hamma daarii lafaatti ni dhagaʼama; Waaqayyo sabootatti ni muraatii; inni sanyii namaa hundatti murtii fida; hamoota immoo goraadeedhaan fixa’” jedha Waaqayyo.
A noise will come even to the end of the earth; for Yahweh has a controversy with the nations. He will enter into judgment with all flesh. As for the wicked, he will give them to the sword,”’ says Yahweh.”
32 Waaqayyo Waan Hunda Dandaʼu akkana jedha: “Ilaa! Sabaa gara sabaatti balaan babalʼachaa jira; bubbeen hamaan jabaan tokko daarii lafaatii kaʼaa jira.”
Yahweh of Armies says, “Behold, evil will go out from nation to nation, and a great storm will be raised up from the uttermost parts of the earth.”
33 Gaafas warri Waaqayyo fixe handaara lafaa tokkoo hamma kaaniitti firfirfamanii argamu. Isaan akkuma kosii lafatti gatamu malee booʼicha hin argatan yookaan walitti hin qabaman yookaan hin awwaalaman.
The slain of Yahweh will be at that day from one end of the earth even to the other end of the earth. They won’t be lamented. They won’t be gathered or buried. They will be dung on the surface of the ground.
34 Yaa tiksoota, booʼaa, wawwaadhaas; eegdonni bushaayees daaraa irra gangaladhaa. Yeroon isin itti gorraʼamtan dhufeeraatii; isin kuftanii akkuma miʼa suphee miidhagaa caccabdu.
Wail, you shepherds, and cry. Wallow in dust, you leader of the flock; for the days of your slaughter and of your dispersions have fully come, and you will fall like fine pottery.
35 Tiksoonni iddoo itti baqatan, eegdonni bushaayee immoo iddoo itti miliqan hin qaban.
The shepherds will have no way to flee. The leader of the flock will have no escape.
36 Iyya tiksootaatii fi wawwaannaa eegdota bushaayee dhagaʼaa! Waaqayyo lafa dheeda isaanii balleessaa jiraatii.
A voice of the cry of the shepherds, and the wailing of the leader of the flock, for Yahweh destroys their pasture.
37 Sababii dheekkamsa Waaqayyoo jabaa sanaatiif, lafti nagaa qabu ni ona.
The peaceful folds are brought to silence because of the fierce anger of Yahweh.
38 Sababii goraadee cunqursitootaatii fi sababii dheekkamsa Waaqayyoo hamaa sanaatiif, inni akkuma leencaa manʼee isaatii ni baʼa; biyyi isaaniis ni onti.
He has left his covert, as the lion; for their land has become an astonishment because of the fierceness of the oppression, and because of his fierce anger.
