< Miilkiyaas 4 >
1 “Dhugumaan guyyaan akka badaa ibiddaa bobaʼu ni dhufa. Of tuultonni hundii fi warri hammina hojjetan hundi cidii taʼu; guyyaan sunis isaan guba” jedha Waaqayyo Waan Hunda Dandaʼu. “Hiddi yookaan dameen tokko iyyuu isaaniif hin hafu.
Watch out! The day is coming—it burns like an oven—when the proud and the wicked will be burned like straw. When that day comes they will be completely burned up, root and branch, says the Lord Almighty.
2 Isin warra maqaa koo kabajjaniif garuu Aduun qajeelummaa qoochoo isaa jalatti fayyina qabatee ni baʼa. Isinis baatanii akkuma jabbii golaa gad dhiifamteetti burraaqxu.
But for those who have reverence for me, the sun of God's salvation will rise with healing in its wings, and you will be set free, leaping like calves released from their stalls.
3 Ergasii isin hamoota ni dhidhiittu; isaanis guyyaa ani wantoota kanneen hojjedhutti faana miilla keessanii jalatti daaraa ni taʼu” jedha Waaqayyo Waan Hunda Dandaʼu.
You will trample the wicked as ashes under your feet on the day when I take action, says the Lord Almighty.
4 “Seera garbicha koo Musee, sirnaa fi ajaja ani Israaʼeloota hundaaf Kooreebitti isatti kenne sana yaadadhaa.
Remember the law of Moses my servant that I commanded him and all Israel to follow—all the instructions and ceremonies I gave on Mount Sinai.
5 “Kunoo ani, guyyaan Waaqayyoo inni guddaanii fi sodaachisaan sun utuu hin dhufin dura Eeliyaas raajicha isiniif nan erga.
Look! I am going to send Elijah the prophet before the day of the Lord arrives, the great and terrifying day.
6 Inni qalbii abbootii gara ijoolleetti, qalbii ijoollee immoo gara abbootiitti ni deebisa; yoo kanaa achii ani dhufee abaarsaan biyyattii nan rukuta.”
He will restore harmony between parents and children, and if that does not happen, I will come and strike the land with a curse.
