< Miilkiyaas 2 >

1 “Yaa luboota akeekkachiisni kun isiniif kenname.
Khathesi-ke, bapristi, umlayo lo ngowenu.
2 Yoo isin dhaggeeffachuu baattan, yoo isin maqaa koo kabajuuf garaa keessan qopheessuu baattan, ani abaarsa isinitti nan erga; eebba keessanis nan abaara” jedha Waaqayyo Waan Hunda Dandaʼu. “Sababii isin maqaa koo kabajuuf garaa keessan hin qopheessiniif dhugumaan ani amma iyyuu eebba keessan abaareera.
Uba lingalaleli, njalo uba lingakubeki enhliziyweni ukunika ibizo lami udumo, itsho iNkosi yamabandla, ngizathumela isiqalekiso phakathi kwenu, ngiqalekise izibusiso zenu. Yebo, sengiziqalekisile, ngoba kalikubeki enhliziyweni.
3 “Sababii keessaniif ani sanyii keessan nan ifadha; faandoo aarsaa isin guyyaa ayyaanaa dhiʼeessitanii fuula keessanitti nan facaasa; isa wajjinis ni baddu.
Khangelani, ngizakona inzalo yenu, ngithele umswane ebusweni benu, umswane wamadili enu, lisuswe kanye lawo.
4 Kakuun ani Lewwii wajjin qabu akka itti fufuuf, ajaja kana isinitti erguu koo isin ni beektu” jedha Waaqayyo Waan Hunda Dandaʼu.
Njalo lizakwazi ukuthi ngithumele lumlayo kini, ukuze isivumelwano sami sibe loLevi, itsho iNkosi yamabandla.
5 “Kakuun ani isa wajjin gale kakuu jireenyaatii fi kakuu nagaa ture; isas nan kenneef; kunis kabaja fide; innis na kabaje; maqaa koo sodaachuudhaanis ni dhaabate.
Isivumelwano sami besilaye siyikuphila lokuthula; ngamnika khona kube yikwesaba angesaba ngakho; wathuthumela phambi kwebizo lami.
6 Gorsi dhugaa afaan isaa keessa ture; sobni tokko iyyuu hidhii isaa irraa hin argamne. Inni nagaa fi qajeelummaadhaan na wajjin jiraate; nama hedduus qalbii jijjiirrachiise.
Umlayo weqiniso wawusemlonyeni wakhe, lesiphambeko kasitholakalanga endebeni zakhe. Wahamba lami ngokuthula langobuqotho, waphendula abanengi ebubini.
7 “Sababii inni ergamaa Waaqayyo Waan Hunda Dandaʼuu taʼeef, hidhiin luba tokkoo beekumsa kuufata; namoonnis afaan isaa irraa gorsa barbaadu.
Ngoba indebe zompristi ziyagcina ulwazi, njalo bayadinga umlayo emlonyeni wakhe, ngoba uyisithunywa seNkosi yamabandla.
8 Isin garuu karaa irraa jalʼattaniirtu; barsiisa keessaniinis namoota baayʼee gufachiiftaniirtu; kakuu Lewwiis cabsitaniirtu” jedha Waaqayyo Waan Hunda Dandaʼu.
Kodwa lina liphambukile endleleni, lakhubekisa abanengi emlayweni; lona isivumelwano sikaLevi, itsho iNkosi yamabandla.
9 “Kanaafuu ani akka isin saboota hunda duratti tuffatamtanii fi salphattan nan godha; isin waaʼee seeraa keessatti loogii hojjettan malee karaa koo duukaa hin buuneetii.”
Ngakho lami ngilenzile laba ngabadelelekayo labehliselwe phansi phambi kwabantu bonke, njengokuba lingagcinanga izindlela zami, kodwa lamukele ubuso emlayweni.
10 Nu hundi Abbaa tokko qabna mitii? Waaquma tokkotu nu uume mitii? Yoos nu maaliif waliif amanamuu diduudhaan kakuu abbootii keenyaa xureessina ree?
Kasilababa munye yini thina sonke? UNkulunkulu munye kasidalanga yini? Kungani sisenza ngenkohliso, omunye emelene lomfowabo, ngokungcolisa isivumelwano sabobaba?
11 Yihuudaan hin amanamne. Israaʼelii fi Yerusaalem keessatti wanni jibbisiisaan tokko raawwatameera; Yihuudaan dubartoota waaqa ormaa waaqeffatan fuudhuudhaan iddoo qulqulluu Waaqayyo jaallatu xureesseera.
UJuda wenze ngenkohliso, njalo kwenziwe amanyala koIsrayeli leJerusalema; ngoba uJuda ungcolisile ubungcwele bukaJehova abuthandayo, uthethe indodakazi kankulunkulu wezizweni.
12 Nama waan kana hojjetu abbaa fedhe illee yoo taʼe, Waaqayyo Waan Hunda Dandaʼuuf aarsaa fidu iyyuu dunkaana Yaaqoob keessaa Waaqayyo isa haa balleessu.
INkosi izaquma umuntu owenza lokhu, ovusayo lophendulayo, asuke emathenteni kaJakobe, lalowo oletha umnikelo eNkosini yamabandla.
13 Wanni isin hojjettan kan biraas kanaa dha: iddoo aarsaa Waaqayyoo irra imimmaan lolaaftu. Sababii inni siʼachi aarsaa keessaniif xiyyeeffannoo hin kennineef yookaan aarsaa keessan gammachuudhaan isin harkaa hin fudhanneef ni boossu; ni wawwaattus.
Lalokhu likwenzile kabili; lisibekela ilathi leNkosi ngezinyembezi, ngokukhala, langokububula, okungangokuthi kayisawunanzi umnikelo, kumbe ukuwemukela ngokuthokoza esandleni senu.
14 Isinis, “Kun maaliif taʼe?” jettanii gaafattu. Kun sababii ati utuma isheen hidhata kee, niitii kee kan kakuu taatee jirtuu amanamummaa isheef dhabdeef Waaqayyo siʼii fi niitii qeerrummaa kee gidduutti ragaa taʼeefii dha.
Kanti lithi: Kungani? Kungoba iNkosi yayingumfakazi phakathi kwakho lomfazi wobutsha bakho, wena omphethe ngenkohliso, kanti engumngane wakho, lomfazi wesivumelwano sakho.
15 Waaqayyo tokko isaan hin goonee? Isaan fooniinis hafuuraanis kanuma isaa ti. Inni maaliif tokko isaan godhe? Sababii inni sanyii Waaqa sodaatu barbaadaa tureef. Kanaafuu of eeggadhaa; eenyu iyyuu amanamummaa niitii qeerrummaa isaatiif qabu hin cabsin.
Kenzanga yini oyedwa? Njalo elomoya oseleyo. Njalo kungani oyedwa? Wadinga inzalo kaNkulunkulu. Ngakho qaphelisani ngomoya wenu, njalo kakungabi lophatha umfazi wobutsha bakhe ngenkohliso.
16 “Ani wal hiikuu dhirsaa fi niitii nan jibba” jedha Waaqayyo Waaqni Israaʼel; “Ani nama wayyaa isaatiin jalʼina haguugu nan jibba” jedha Waaqayyo Waan Hunda Dandaʼu. Kanaafuu of eeggadhaa; amanamummaas hin dhabinaa.
Ngoba iNkosi uNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli ithi iyazonda ukwalana. Ngoba omunye usibekela udlakela ngesembatho sakhe, itsho iNkosi yamabandla. Ngakho qaphelisani ngomoya wenu, ukuze lingenzi ngenkohliso.
17 Isin dubbii keessaniin Waaqayyoon dadhabsiiftaniirtu. “Nu akkamiin isa dadhabsiifne?” jettaniis gaafattu. “Warri waan hamaa hojjetan hundinuu fuula Waaqayyoo duratti gaarii dha; innis isaanitti gammada” yookaan “Waaqni murtii qajeelaa meerre?” jechuudhaan.
Liyidinisile iNkosi ngamazwi enu. Kanti lithi: Siyidinise ngani? Ngokuthi kwenu: Wonke owenza okubi ulungile emehlweni eNkosi, njalo iyathokoza ngabo; kumbe: Ungaphi uNkulunkulu wesahlulelo?
