Ermiyaas 6
1 “Yaa saba Beniyaam baqadhaa baʼaa! Yerusaalem keessaa baqadhaa! Teqooʼaa keessatti malakata afuufaa! Beet Hakerem irratti mallattoo ol qabaa! Karaa kaabaatiin balaan, badiisni suukaneessaan ni dhufaatii.
Flee for refuge - O people of Benjamin from [the] midst of Jerusalem and in Tekoa blow a trumpet and at Beth Hakkerem raise a signal for calamity it has looked down from [the] north and destruction great.

The beautiful [one] and the dainty [one] I resemble [the] daughter of Zion.
3 Tiksoonni bushaayee isaanii fudhatanii isheetti dhufu; dunkaana isaaniis isheetti naannessanii dhaabatu. Tokkoon tokkoon isaaniis iddoo isaaniitti bobbaafatu.”
To it they will come shepherds and flocks their they will pitch at it tents all around they will graze everyone hand his.
4 “Isheetti waraana kaasuuf qophaaʼaa! Kaʼaa, guyyaa saafaadhaan ishee waraanaa! Wayyoo, aduun dhiʼaa jirti; gaaddisni galgalaas dheerateera.
Consecrate on it battle arise so we may go up at noon woe! to us for it has turned the day for they are stretched out [the] shadows of evening.

6 Waaqayyo Waan Hunda Dandaʼu akkana jedha; “Mukkeen ishee ciraa; naannoo Yerusaalemitti tuulaa biyyoo tolchaa; magaalaan kun adabamuu qabdi; isheen cunqursaadhaan guutamteertii.
For thus he says Yahweh of hosts cut down wood and pour out on Jerusalem a mound that city it will be visited all of it [is] oppression in midst its.
7 Akkuma boolli bishaanii bishaan yaasu sana, isheenis hammina ishee gad yaafti; jeequmsii fi badiisni ishee keessatti ni dhagaʼama. Dhukkubnii fi madaan ishee yeroo hunda fuula koo dura jiran.
As keeps cool (a well *Q(K)*) water its so it has kept cool evil its violence and havoc it is heard in it [are] on face my continually sickness and wound[s].
8 Yaa Yerusaalem gorsa koo dhagaʼi; yoo kanaa achii ani sirraa garagalee, akka namni tokko iyyuu keessa jiraachuu hin dandeenyeef, biyya kee nan onsa.”
Let yourself be instructed O Jerusalem lest it should be alienated self my from you lest I should make you a desolation a land [which] not it is inhabited.
9 Waaqayyo Waan Hunda Dandaʼu akkana jedha: “Akkuma wayiniin sirriitti funaanamu sana, isaanis hambaa Israaʼel haa funaanan; akkuma nama ija wayinii ciru tokkootti; ammas harka kee gara dameewwaniitti hiixadhu.”
Thus he says Yahweh of hosts thoroughly people will glean like vine [the] remnant of Israel return hand your like a grape gatherer over branches.
10 Ani eenyuttin dubbadhee akeekkachiisuu dandaʼa? Eenyutu na dhaggeeffata? Kunoo, gurri isaanii dhagna hin qabanne; dhagaʼuus hin dandaʼan. Dubbiin Waaqayyoo isaanitti hin tolu; ittis hin gammadan.
To whom? will I speak and will I warn? and they may listen there! [is] uncircumcised ear their and not they are able to pay attention there! [the] word of Yahweh it has become for them a reproach not they delight in it.
11 Ani garuu dheekkamsa Waaqayyootiin guutameera; obsuus hin dandaʼu. “Ijoollee daandii irra jiran irratti, dargaggoota walitti qabaman irratti, dhirsaa fi niitii irratti, warra dulloomanittis dheekkamsa nan dhangalaasa.
And [the] rage of Yahweh - I am full I am weary to hold [it] in pour [it] out on child[ren] in the street and on [the] gathering of young men alike for also a husband with a wife they will be caught [the] old with [the] full of days.
12 Yeroo ani harka koo warra biyyattii keessa jiraatanitti ol fudhadhutti manneen isaanii, lafa qotiisaa isaaniitii fi niitota isaanii wajjin namoota kaaniif kennamu” jedha Waaqayyo.
And they will be turned over houses their to others fields and wives alike for I will stretch out hand my on [the] inhabitants of the land [the] utterance of Yahweh.

15 Isaan amala isaanii jibbisiisaa sanatti ni qaanaʼuu? Lakkii, isaan qaanii tokko iyyuu hin qaban; qaanaʼuun maal akka taʼe iyyuu hin beekan. Kanaafuu isaan warra kufan wajjin ni kufu; yeroo ani isaan adabutti gad gatamu” jedha Waaqayyo.
Are they ashamed? that an abomination they have done neither at all not they are ashamed nor to exhibit shame not they know therefore they will fall among [those who] fall at [the] time [when] I have visited them they will stumble he says Yahweh.
16 Waaqayyo akkana jedha: “Karaa qaxxaamuraa irra dhaabadhaatii ilaalaa; daandii durii iyyaafadhaa; karaan gaariin garam akka jiru gaafadhaatii irra deemaa; lubbuu keessaniif boqonnaa ni argattuutii. Isin garuu, ‘Nu isa irra hin deemnu’ jettan.
Thus he says Yahweh stand at [the] roads and look and ask - of paths of ancient time where? this [is] [the] way of the good and walk in it and find rest for self your and they said not we will walk.

Therefore listen O nations and know O congregation [that] which [is] in them.
19 Yaa lafaa dhagaʼi: Ani waan isaan dubbii koo dhagaʼuu didanii seera koos tuffataniif, saba kanatti badiisa nan fida; kunis ija daba isaanii ti.
Hear O earth here! I [am] about to bring calamity to the people this [the] fruit of own schemes their for on words my not they have paid attention and law my and they have rejected it.

Why? this to me frankincense [which] from Sheba it comes and [the] cane good from a land of distance burnt offerings your not [are] for acceptance and sacrifices your not they are pleasing to me.
21 Kanaafuu Waaqayyo akkana jedha: “Ani fuula saba kanaa dura gufuu nan kaaʼa. Abbootiinii fi ijoolleen walii wajjin itti gufatu; olloonnii fi michoonni ni barbadaaʼu.”
Therefore thus he says Yahweh here I [am] about to give to the people this stumbling blocks and they will stumble over them fathers and sons alike a neighbor and friend his (and they will perish. *Q(K)*)

Bow and javelin they take hold of [is] cruel it and not they have mercy sound their [is] like the sea [which] it roars and on horses they ride arranged like a man for battle on you O daughter of Zion.

We heard [the] report of it they hung limp hands our distress it took hold of us anguish like [woman] giving birth.
25 Sababii diinni goraadee qabatee fi sababii iddoo hunda gooliin jiruuf isin diidatti gad hin baʼinaa; yookaan karaa irra hin deemnaa.
