Faaruu 2
1 Gooftaan akkamitti duumessa dheekkamsa isaatiin intala Xiyoon haguuge! Inni ulfina Israaʼel samiidhaa lafatti gad daddarbateera; inni guyyaa dheekkamsa isaatti ejjeta miilla isaa hin yaadanne.
Oh how hath the Lord covered in his anger the daughter of Zion with a cloud; he hath cast down from heaven unto the earth the ornament of Israel; and he hath not remembered his footstool on the day of his anger!
2 Gooftaan gara laafina tokko malee iddoo jireenya Yaaqoob hunda liqimseera; daʼannoo intala Yihuudaas dheekkamsa isaatiin diige. Inni mootummaa isheetii fi bulchitoota ishee salphisee lafatti gad deebise.
The Lord hath destroyed and hath not pitied all the habitation of Jacob: he hath thrown down in his wrath the strong-holds of the daughter of Judah: he hath thrown them down to the ground; he hath defiled the kingdom and its princes.
3 Inni dheekkamsa sodaachisaadhaan gaanfa Israaʼel hunda caccabse. Yommuu diinni dhiʼaatettis harka isaa mirgaa duubatti deebifate. Inni akkuma arraba ibiddaa kan waan naannoo isaa jiru gubu sanaa Yaaqoob keessatti bobaʼe.
He hath hewn away in his fierce anger the whole horn of Israel; he hath drawn back his right hand before the enemy; and he burnt against Jacob like a flaming fire, which devoureth round about.
4 Inni akkuma diinaatti iddaa isaa dabsate; harki isaa mirgaa qophaaʼeera. Warra ijatti bareedan hunda akkuma amajaajiitti qale; dunkaana intala Xiyoonitti dheekkamsa isaa akkuma ibiddaa roobse.
He bent his bow like an enemy; he held out his right hand as an adversary, and slew all that were pleasant to the eye: in the tent of the daughter of Zion did he pour out like fire his fury.
5 Gooftaan akkuma diinaa taʼe; inni Israaʼelin liqimseera. Inni masaraawwan ishee hunda liqimsee daʼannoo ishee jabaa illee diigeera. Inni Intala Yihuudaatti booʼichaa fi faaruu booʼichaa baayʼiseera.
The Lord became like an enemy; he destroyed Israel, he destroyed all her palaces, he ruined her strong-holds, and he increased in the midst of the daughter of Judah groaning and wailing.
6 Inni lafa jireenya isaa akkuma iddoo biqiltuu onseera; iddoo wal gaʼii isaas balleesseera. Waaqayyo akka Xiyoon ayyaana ishee kan murtaaʼee fi Sanbatoota ishee irraanfattu godheera; inni dheekkamsa isaa sodaachisaa sanaan moototaa fi luboota akka malee tuffate.
And he violently wasted, as if it were a garden, his tabernacle; he destroyed his place of assembly: [yea, ] the Lord hath caused to be forgotten in Zion the solemn feast and the day of rest, and hath despised in the indignation of his anger both king and priest.
7 Gooftaan iddoo aarsaa isaa tuffateera; iddoo qulqulluu isaa illee dhiiseera. Dallaawwan masaraawwan ishee dabarsee harka diinotaatti kenneera; isaan akkuma guyyaa ayyaana murteeffameetti mana Waaqayyoo keessatti sagalee ol fudhatanii iyyan.
The Lord hath cast off his altar, he hath made void his sanctuary, he hath surrendered into the hand of the enemy the walls of her palaces: they have made their voice to resound in the house of the Lord, as on a day of a solemn feast.
8 Waaqayyo dallaa naannoo Intala Xiyoon jiru diiguuf murteesseera. Inni safartuu diriirseera; barbadeessuu irraas harka isaa hin deebifanne. Akka dallaan eegumsaatii fi keenyan faarsanii booʼan godhe; isaanis tokkummaadhaan badan.
The Lord hath resolved to destroy the wall of the daughter of Zion; he stretched out the measuring-line, he withdrew not his hand from destroying: and he caused the rampart and the wall to mourn; together they languish.
9 Karrawwan ishee lafa keessa dhidhimaniiru; inni danqaraawwan sibiila ishee caccabsee balleesseera. Mootiin isheetii fi ilmaan mootota ishee boojiʼamanii saboota gidduu bibittinnaaʼaniiru; seerri siʼachi hin jiraatu; raajonni ishees siʼachi Waaqayyo biraa mulʼata hin argan.
Sunk into the ground are her gates, he hath ruined and broken her bars: her king and her princes are among the nations without any law; her prophets also obtain no more any vision from the Lord.
10 Maanguddoonni Intala Xiyoon calʼisanii lafa tataaʼan; isaan daaraa mataatti firfirfatanii uffata gaddaas uffatan. Shamarran Yerusaalem mataa isaanii gad qabatan.
The elders of the daughter of Zion sit upon the ground, they keep silence: they have thrown dust upon their head; they have girt themselves with sackcloth: the virgins of Jerusalem have brought down low their head to the ground.
11 Iji koo booʼichaan dadhabeera; keessa kootti dhiphadheera; sababii sabni koo dhumeef sababii ijoollee fi daaʼimman daandiiwwan magaalaa irratti gaggabaniif garaan koo gaddaan laafeera.
My eyes do fail with tears, my bowels are heated, my liver is poured upon the earth because of the breach of the daughter of my people; because babes and sucklings faint away in the streets of the town.
12 Isaan yommuu daandiiwwan magaalaa irratti akkuma namoota madaaʼaniitti gaggabanitti, yommuu lubbuun isaanii hammuu haadha isaanii irratti baʼuuf jirtutti “Buddeennii fi daadhiin wayinii eessaa jiru?” jedhanii haadhota isaanii gaafatu.
To their mothers they say, Where is corn and wine? when they faint away like the deadly wounded in the streets of the city, when their soul is poured out on the bosom of their mother.
13 Yaa intala Yerusaalem, ani maal siif jechuun dandaʼa? Maaliinan wal si qixxeessa? Yaa Intala Xiyoon durba qulqullittii ani akkan si jajjabeessuuf maalittin si fakkeessuu dandaʼa? Madaan kee akkuma galaanaa gad fagoo dha. Eenyutu si fayyisuu dandaʼa?
What shall I take to witness for thee? what shall I compare unto thee, O daughter of Jerusalem? what shall I find equal to thee, that I may comfort thee, O virgin daughter of Zion? for great like the sea is thy breach; who can bring healing to thee?
14 Mulʼanni raajota keetii sobaa fi kan faayidaa hin qabnee dha; isaan boojiʼamuu kee hambisuuf cubbuu kee ifa hin baafne. Raajiin isaan siif kennanis sobaa fi kan karaa irraa nama balleessuu dha.
Thy prophets foresaw for thee vain and deceptive things; and they did not lay open thy iniquity, to cause thy backsliders to return: but they foresaw for thee prophecies of falsehood and seduction.
15 Warri karaa keetiin darban hundinuu harka isaanii sitti rurrukutu; isaanis intala Yerusaalemitti qoosuu fi mataa raasuudhaan, “Magaalaan muummee miidhaginaa gammachuu guutuu lafaa jedhamtee waamamte sun kanaa?” jedhu.
All that pass by [this] way clap their hands on account of thee; they hiss and shake their head over the daughter of Jerusalem: [saying, ] Is this the city that men called The perfection of beauty. The joy for all the earth?
16 Diinonni kee hundinuu afaan isaanii sitti banatu; isaan qoosuu fi ilkaan isaanii qaruudhaan “Nu ishee liqimsineerra. Guyyaan nu eeggachaa turre sun kanaa dha; nu waan kana arguuf jiraanneerra” jedhu.
All thy enemies open wide their mouth against thee; they hiss and gnash their teeth; they say, We have swallowed her up: ah, truly this is the day that we hoped for; we have found, we have seen it.
17 Waaqayyo waan karoorfate hojjeteera; dubbii isaa kan bara dheeraan dura dubbate sana guuttateera. Inni gara laafina tokko malee si garagalcheera; akka diinni kee sitti gammadu godheera; gaanfa amajaajii keetii ol ol qabeera.
The Lord hath done what he had resolved; he hath accomplished his word which he had ordained already in the days of old; he hath thrown down, and hath not pitied; and he hath caused to rejoice over thee thy enemy, he hath raised on high the horn of thy adversaries.
18 Onneen namootaa gara Gooftaatti iyya. Yaa dallaa Intala Xiyoon halkanii guyyaa imimmaan kee akka lagaa haa yaaʼu; boqonnaa tokko illee ofii keetiif hin kennin; iji kees hin boqotin.
Their heart crieth unto the Lord, O thou wall of the daughter of Zion, let tears run down like a stream day and night; allow thyself no rest; let not the apple of thy eye be still.
19 Yommuu eegumsi halkanii jalqabutti kaʼiitii halkaniin iyyi; fuula Gooftaa duratti onnee kee akka bishaanii dhangalaasi. Lubbuu ijoollee keetii kanneen fiixee daandii hundaatti beelaan gaggabaniitiif jedhiitii harka kee gara isaatti ol qabadhu.
Arise, complain aloud in the night, in the beginning of the watches; pour out like water thy heart before the face of the Lord: lift up toward him thy hands because of the life of thy babes, that faint away for hunger at the corner of all the streets.
20 “Yaa Waaqayyo, ati ilaali; argis: Ati takkumaa eenyu irratti waan akkasii gootee beekta? Haadhonni daaʼimman isaanii, ijoollee kunuunsanii guddisan nyaachuu qabuu? Lubnii fi raajiin, iddoo qulqulluu kan Gooftaa keessatti ajjeefamuu qabuu?
See, O Lord, and behold! to whom hast thou ever done the like? Shall women, then, eat their own fruit, the babes they have tenderly nursed? or shall there be slain in the sanctuary of the Lord the priest and the prophet?
21 “Dargaggoonnii fi maanguddoonni, walii wajjin awwaara karaa irra ciisu; dargaggoonnii fi shamarran koo goraadeedhaan ajjeefamaniiru. Ati gaafa dheekkamsa keetiitti isaan fixxe; gara laafina tokko malee isaan qalte.
There lie down on the ground in the streets the lad and the ancient: my virgins and my young men are fallen by the sword: thou hast slain on the day of thy anger; thou hast slaughtered, thou hast not pitied.
22 “Ati akkuma guyyaa ayyaana murteeffameetti nama waamtutti qixa hundaanuu sodaa natti waamte. Guyyaa dheekkamsa Waaqayyootti, homaa hin miliqne yookaan hin hafne; warra ani daʼee guddise diinni koo na jalaa balleesseera.”
Thou hast called, as it were on a festive day, my evil neighbors from round about; and there was not on the day of the Lord's anger one that escaped or remained: those that I had tenderly nursed and reared up my enemy brought to their end.
