< Miikiyaas 4 >
1 Bara dhumaa keessa tulluun mana qulqullummaa Waaqayyoo tulluuwwan hunda keessaa ol dheeratee dhaabata; inni gaarran caalaa ol ol jedha; namoonnis itti yaaʼu.
And it hath come to pass, In the latter end of the days, The mount of the house of Jehovah Is established above the top of the mounts, And it hath been lifted up above the hills, And flowed unto it have peoples.
2 Saboonni baayʼeen dhufanii akkana jedhu; “Kottaa gara tulluu Waaqayyoo, gara mana Waaqa Yaaqoob ol baanaa. Inni akka nu daandii isaa irra deemnuuf karaa isaa nu barsiisa.” Seerri Xiyoon keessaa, dubbiin Waaqayyoo immoo Yerusaalem keessaa dhufa.
And gone have many nations and said, Come and we go up to the mount of Jehovah, And unto the house of the God of Jacob, And He doth teach us of His ways, And we do walk in His paths, For from Zion doth go forth a law, And a word of Jehovah from Jerusalem.
3 Inni namoota hedduu gidduutti murtii kennee saboota jajjaboo gargar fagoo jiranis walitti araarsa. Isaan goraadee isaanii tumanii maarashaa, eeboo isaanii illee haamtuu tolfatu. Sabni tokko saba biraatti goraadee hin luqqifatu yookaan waraanaaf jedhanii siʼachi nama hin leenjisan.
And He hath judged between many peoples, And given a decision to mighty nations afar off, They have beaten their swords to ploughshares, And their spears to pruning-hooks, Nation lifteth not up sword unto nation, Nor do they learn war any more.
4 Namni hundi muka wayinii isaatii fi muka harbuu isaa jala taaʼa; Waaqayyoon Waan Hunda Dandaʼu dubbateeraatii namni isaan sodaachisu tokko iyyuu hin jiru.
And they have sat each under his vine, And under his fig-tree, And there is none troubling, For the mouth of Jehovah of Hosts hath spoken.
5 Saboonni hundinuu maqaa waaqota isaaniitiin deddeebiʼu; nu immoo bara baraa hamma bara baraatti maqaa Waaqayyo Waaqa keenyaatiin deddeebina.
For all the peoples do walk, Each in the name of its god — and we, We do walk in the name of Jehovah our God, To the age and for ever.
6 Waaqayyo akkana jedha; “Ani bara sana naafa walittin qaba; warra boojiʼamanii fi warra ani gaddisiises walittin qaba.
In that day — an affirmation of Jehovah, I do gather the halting one, And the driven away one I bring together, And she whom I have afflicted.
7 Ani warra naafa hambaa, warra ariʼame immoo saba jabaa nan godha. Waaqayyo guyyaa sanaa jalqabee hamma bara baraatti Tulluu Xiyoon irratti bulchaa isaanii taʼa.
And I have set the halting for a remnant, And the far-off for a mighty nation, And reigned hath Jehovah over them in mount Zion, From henceforth, and unto the age.
8 Yaa gamoo eegumsa bushaayee, yaa daʼoo Intala Xiyoon, ol aantummaan durii siif ni deebifama; mootummaan Intala Yerusaalem ni dhufa.”
And thou, O tower of Eder, Fort of the daughter of Zion, unto thee it cometh, Yea, come in hath the former rule, The kingdom to the daughter of Jerusalem.
9 Ati amma maaliif akkana iyyitee boossa? Ati mootii hin qabduu? Wanni ati akka dubartii ciniinsuun qabee miixattuuf gorsaan kee badeetii?
Now, why dost thou shout aloud? A king — is there none in thee? Hath thy counsellor perished, That taken hold of thee hath pain as a travailing woman?
10 Yaa Intala Xiyoon, akkuma dubartii ciniinsuun qabeetti aadi; ati amma bakkee keessa qubachuuf magaalaa keessaa baʼuu qabdaatii. Ati Baabilon dhaqxa; achitti ni baraaramta. Waaqayyo achitti harka diina keetii keessaa si fura.
Be pained, and bring forth, O daughter of Zion, As a travailing woman, For now, thou goest forth from the city, And thou hast dwelt in the field, And thou hast gone unto Babylon, There thou art delivered, There redeem thee doth Jehovah from the hand of thine enemies.
11 Amma garuu saboonni hedduun si marsaniiru. Isaanis, “Isheen haa xurooftu; iji keenya xiyyeeffatee Xiyoonin haa ilaalu!” jedhu.
And now, gathered against thee have been many nations, who are saying: 'Let her be defiled, and our eyes look on Zion.'
12 Isaan garuu yaada Waaqayyoo hin beekan; isaan karoora isaa kan inni akkuma bissii oobdiitti walitti qabe sana hin hubatan.
They have not known the thoughts of Jehovah, Nor have they understood His counsel, For He hath gathered them as a sheaf [into] a threshing-floor.
13 “Yaa Intala Xiyoon kaʼiitii midhaan dhaʼi; ani gaanfa sibiilaa siif nan kennaatii; ani kottee naasii siif nan kenna; atis saboota baayʼee caccabsita.” Ati horii isaan karaa hamaadhaan argatan Waaqayyoof kennita; qabeenya isaaniis Gooftaa lafa hundaatiif kennita.
Arise, and thresh, O daughter of Zion, For thy horn I make iron, And thy hoofs I make brass, And thou hast beaten small many peoples, And I have devoted to Jehovah their gain, And their wealth to the Lord of the whole earth!
