Ermiyaas 49
1 Waaʼee Amoonotaa: Waaqayyo akkana jedha: “Israaʼel ilmaan hin qabuu? Inni nama isa dhaalu hin qabuu? Yoos Moolek maaliif Gaadin dhalche ree? Namoonni isaa maaliif magaalaa ishee keessa jiraatu?
Concerning the sons of Ammon: “Thus said YHWH: Has Israel no sons? Has he no heir? Why has Malcam possessed Gad, And his people have dwelt in its cities?
2 Garuu barri ani itti Rabbaa Amoonotaatti sagalee waca waraanaa dhageessisu tokko ni dhufa” jedha Waaqayyo. “Isheen tuullaa badiisaa ni taati; gandoonni naannoo ishee jiranis ibiddaan gubamu. Ergasii Israaʼel warra ishee ariʼee baase sana ariitee biyyaa ni baafti,” jedha Waaqayyo.
Therefore, behold, days are coming, A declaration of YHWH, And I have sounded a shout of battle in Rabbah of the sons of Ammon, And it has been for a heap—a desolation, And her daughters are burned with fire, And Israel has succeeded its heirs, said YHWH.
3 “Yaa Heshboon wawwaadhu, Aayi barbadoofteertii! Yaa jiraattota Rabbaa iyyaa! Wayyaa gaddaa uffadhaatii booʼaa; dallaa keessa asii fi achi fiigaa; Moolek lubootaa fi qondaaltota isaa wajjin boojiʼamee ni fudhatamaatii.
Howl, Heshbon, for Ai is spoiled, Cry, daughters of Rabbah, gird on sackcloth, Lament, and go to and fro by the hedges, For Malcam goes into captivity, His priests and his princes together.
4 Ati maaliif sulula keetiin boonta? Maaliif sulula kee gabbataa sanaan boonta? Yaa intala hin amanamne ati sooruma kee abdattee, ‘Eenyutu na tuqa?’ jetta.
Why do you boast yourself in valleys? Your valley is flowing, O backsliding daughter, Who is trusting in her treasures: Who comes to me?
5 Ani warra naannoo kee jiraatan hunda irraa sodaa sitti nan fida” jedha Gooftaan, Waaqayyoon Waan Hunda Dandaʼu. “Tokkoon tokkoon keessan ni ariʼamtu; namni baqattoota walitti qabu tokko iyyuu hin jiru.
Behold, I am bringing fear in on you, A declaration of Lord YHWH of Hosts, From all around you, And you have each been driven out before it, And there is no gatherer of the wandering.
6 “Taʼu illee ani ergasii hambaawwan Amoonotaa deebisee nan dhaaba” jedha Waaqayyo.
And after this I return the captivity of the sons of Ammon, A declaration of YHWH.”
7 Waaʼee Edoom: Waaqayyo Waan Hunda Dandaʼu akkana jedha: “Siʼachi Teemaan keessa ogummaan hin jiruu? Hubattoota duraa gorsi badeeraa? Ogummaan isaanii sameeraa?
Concerning Edom: “Thus said YHWH of Hosts: Is wisdom no longer in Teman? Has counsel perished from the intelligent? Has their wisdom vanished?
8 Warri Deedaan keessa jiraattan garagalaa, baqadhaatii holqa gad fagoo keessa dhokadhaa; ani yeroo Esaawun adabutti badiisa isatti nan fidaatii.
Flee, turn, go deep to dwell, you inhabitants of Dedan, For I brought the calamity of Esau on him, The time I inspected him.
9 Warri gumaa wayinii guuran utuu gara kee dhufanii silaa qarmii wayii hin hambisanii? Hattuun yoo halkan dhufte, Isaan hammuma barbaadan qofa fudhatanii hin deemanii?
If gatherers have come to you, They do not leave gleanings, If thieves in the night, They have destroyed their sufficiency!
10 Ani garuu Esaawun qullaa nan hambisa; akka inni itti hin daʼanneef ani iddoo inni itti dhokatu ifatti nan baasa. Ijoolleen isaa, firoonni isaatii fi olloonni isaa ni badu; innis siʼachi hin jiraatu.
For I have made Esau bare, I have uncovered his secret places, And he is not able to be hidden, Spoiled [is] his seed, and his brothers, And his neighbors, and he is not.
11 ‘Daaʼimman kee kanneen warra hin qabne dhiisi; anatu isaan jiraachisaatii. Haadhonni hiyyeessaa kee na amanachuu dandaʼu.’”
Leave your orphans—I keep alive, And your widows—trust on Me,
12 Waaqayyo akkana jedha: “Yoo warri xoofoo dhuguun isaaniif hin malin ishee dhuguu qabaatan, ati maaliif utuu hin adabamin hafta ree? Ati ishee dhuguu qabda malee utuu hin adabamin hin haftu.
For thus said YHWH: They whose judgment is not to drink of the cup, Do certainly drink, And you [are] he that is entirely acquitted! You are not acquitted, for you certainly drink.
13 Ani akka Bozraan diigamtee waan sodaa, waan fafaatii fi waan abaarsaa taatu maqaa kootiin nan kakadha” jedha Waaqayyo. “Magaalaawwan ishee hundis bara baraan ni diigamu.”
For I have sworn by Myself, A declaration of YHWH, That for a desolation, for a reproach, For a dry place, and for a reviling—is Bozrah, And all her cities are for continuous ruins.
14 Ani ergaa tokko Waaqayyo irraa dhagaʼeera: Ergamaan tokko akkana jechuuf gara sabootaatti ergame; “Ishee loluuf walitti qabamaa! Waraanaafis baʼaa!”
I have heard a report from YHWH, And an ambassador is sent among nations, Gather yourselves and come in against her, And rise for battle.
15 “Ani amma saboota gidduutti sin xinneessa; namoota keessatti illee tuffatamaa sin godha.
For behold, I have made you little among nations, Despised among men.
16 Ati kan hallayyaa kattaa irra jiraattee fiixee tulluu qabattee jirtu, sodaan ati odeessituu fi of tuulummaan garaa keetii si gowwoomseera. Yoo ati akkuma risaa ol fageessitee mana ijaarrattu iyyuu ani achii gad sin buusa” jedha Waaqayyo.
Your terribleness has lifted you up, The pride of your heart, O dweller in clefts of the rock, Holding the high place of the height, For you make your nest high as an eagle, From there I bring you down, A declaration of YHWH.
17 “Edoom waan sodaa taati; namni achiin darbu hundis sababii madaa ishee hundaatiif dinqisiifatee isheetti kolfa.
And Edom has been for a desolation, Everyone passing by her is astonished, And hisses because of all her plagues.
18 Isheen akkuma Sodoomii fi Gomoraan magaalaawwan naannoo isaanii jiran wajjin balleeffaman sana ni taati” jedha Waaqayyo, “namni tokko iyyuu achi hin jiraatu, sanyiin namaa tokkos ishee keessa hin qubatu.
As the overthrow of Sodom and Gomorrah, And its neighbors, said YHWH, No one dwells there, Nor does a son of man sojourn in her.
19 “Ani akkuma leenca bosona Yordaanosii baʼee gara lafa dheedaa gabbataa dhufu tokkoo dafee Edoomin biyya isheetii nan ariʼa. Filatamaan ani waan kanaaf muudu eenyu? Kan akka koo eenyu? Eenyutus naan morkuu dandaʼa? Tiksee akkamiitu fuula koo dura dhaabachuu dandaʼa?”
Behold, he comes up as a lion, Because of the rising of the Jordan, To the enduring habitation, But I cause to rest, I cause him to run from off her, And who is chosen? I lay a charge concerning her, For who is like Me? And who convenes Me? And who [is] this shepherd who stands before Me?
20 Kanaafuu waan Waaqayyo Edoomitti karoorfate, waan inni warra Teemaan keessa jiraatanitti yaades dhagaʼaa. Ilmaan bushaayee harkifamanii ni fudhatamu; innis sababii isaaniitiif jedhee lafa dheeda isaanii ni barbadeessa.
Therefore, hear the counsel of YHWH, That He has counseled concerning Edom, And His plans that He has devised Concerning the inhabitants of Teman: Do little ones of the flock not drag them out, Does He not make their habitation desolate?
21 Sagalee kufaatii isaaniitiin lafti ni raafamti; iyyi isaanii hamma Galaana Diimaatti ni dhagaʼama.
The earth has shaken from the noise of their fall, The cry—its voice is heard at the Sea of Suph.
22 Ilaa! Risaan tokkoo Bozraa irratti qoochoo balʼisee furguggifamaa gad buʼaa jira. Bara sana keessa garaan loltota Edoom akkuma garaa dubartii ciniinsifachuutti jirtu tokkoo taʼa.
Behold, He comes up as an eagle, and flies, And He spreads His wings over Bozrah, And the heart of the mighty of Edom has been in that day, As the heart of a travailing woman.”
23 Waaʼee Damaasqoo: “Hamaatii fi Arfaad ni raafamu; isaan oduu hamaa dhagaʼaniiruutii. Isaan abdii kutatanii akkuma galaana boqonnaa hin qabne tokkoo jeeqamaniiru.
Concerning Damascus: “Hamath and Arpad have been ashamed, For they have heard an evil report, They have been melted, sorrow [is] in the sea, It is not able to be quiet.
24 Damaasqoon dadhabdeerti; isheen baqachuuf gara galteerti; sodaan guddaan ishee qabateera; akkuma miixuu dubartii ciniinsifattuu, rakkinaa fi miixuun isa qabeera.
Damascus has been feeble, She turned to flee, and fear strengthened her, Distress and pangs have seized her, as a travailing woman.
25 Magaalaan beekamaan, magaalaan ani itti gammadu sun akkam gatamti!
How it is not left—the city of praise, The city of My joy!
26 Dhugumaan dargaggoonni ishee karaa irratti dhumu; loltoonni ishee hundinuu gaafas afaan qabatu” jedha Waaqayyo.
Therefore her young men fall in her broad places, And all the men of war are cut off in that day, A declaration of YHWH of Hosts.
27 “Ani dallaawwan Damaasqootti ibidda nan qabsiisa; ibiddi sunis daʼannoo Ben-Hadaad gubee balleessa.”
And I have kindled a fire against the wall of Damascus, And it consumed palaces of Ben-Hadad!”
28 Waaʼee Qeedaariitii fi waaʼee mootummoota Haazoor kanneen Nebukadnezar mootiin Baabilon lole sanaa: Waaqayyo akkana jedha: “Kaʼaa, Qeedaarin lolaatii saba gama Baʼa Biiftuu barbadeessaa.
Concerning Kedar, and concerning the kingdoms of Hazor that Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon has struck: “Thus said YHWH: Arise, go up to Kedar, And spoil the sons of the east.
29 Dunkaanonni isaaniitii fi bushaayeen isaanii ni fudhatamu; golgaawwan isaanii miʼaa fi gaalawwan isaanii wajjin fudhatamu. Namoonnis, ‘Gama hundaan sodaatu jira!’ jedhanii iyyu.
They take their tents and their flock, Their curtains, and all their vessels, And they carry away their camels for themselves, And they called concerning them, Fear [is] all around.
30 “Isin warri Haazoor keessa jiraattan dafaa baqadhaa! Holqa gad fagoo keessa dhokadhaa” jedha Waaqayyo. “Nebukadnezar mootiin Baabilon isinitti malateera; inni daba isinitti yaadeera.
Flee, bemoan mightily, go deep to dwell, You inhabitants of Hazor—a declaration of YHWH, For Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon has given counsel against you, Indeed, he devises a scheme against them.

Rise, go up to a nation at rest, Dwelling confidently, a declaration of YHWH, It has no double gates nor bar, They dwell alone.

And their camels have been for a prey, And the multitude of their livestock for a spoil, And I have scattered them to every wind, Who cut off the corner [of the beard], And from all its passages I bring in their calamity, A declaration of YHWH.

And Hazor has been for a habitation of dragons, A desolation for all time, No one dwells there, nor does a son of man sojourn in it!”

That which has been the word of YHWH to Jeremiah the prophet concerning Elam, in the beginning of the reign of Zedekiah king of Judah, saying,
