Miikiyaas 5
1 Yaa magaalaa raayyaa waraanaa, raayyaa kee hiriirsi; nu marfamneerraatii. Isaan uleedhaan maddii bulchaa Israaʼel dhaʼu.
Now gather thyself in troops, O daughter of troops: he hath laid siege against us: they shall smite the judge of Israel with a rod upon the cheek.
2 “Garuu yaa Beetlihem Efraataa, ati yoo balbala Yihuudaa keessaa xinnoo taate iyyuu, kan bulchaa Israaʼel taʼu, kan jiraachuun isaa durumaa, kan bara duriitii jalqabee ture tokko si keessaa baʼee naaf dhufa.”
But thou, Beth–lehem Ephratah, though thou be little among the thousands of Judah, yet out of thee shall he come forth unto me that is to be ruler in Israel; whose goings forth have been from of old, from everlasting.
3 Kanaafuu Israaʼel hamma isheen ciniinsifachaa jirtu deessee obboloonni isaa warri hafan Israaʼelootatti makamuuf deebiʼanitti kophaa hafti.
Therefore will he give them up, until the time that she which travaileth hath brought forth: then the remnant of his brethren shall return unto the children of Israel.
4 Inni jabina Waaqayyootiin surraa maqaa Waaqayyo, Waaqa isaatiin dhaabatee bushaayee isaa tikfata. Yeroo sanatti surraan isaa waan daarii lafaa gaʼuuf isaan nagaadhaan jiraatu.
And he shall stand and feed in the strength of Yhwh, in the majesty of the name of Yhwh his God; and they shall abide: for now shall he be great unto the ends of the earth.
5 Inni nagaa keenya taʼa; yeroo warri Asoor biyya keenya weeraranii daʼannoo keenya keessa baʼanitti nu tiksoota torbaa fi ajajjuuwwan saddeet itti kakaasna.
And this man shall be the peace, when the Assyrian shall come into our land: and when he shall tread in our palaces, then shall we raise against him seven shepherds, and eight principal men.
6 Isaan biyya Asoor goraadeedhaan biyya Naamruudis goraadee luqqifameen bulchu. Yeroo warri Asoor biyya keenya weeraranii daarii keenya keessa baʼanitti, inni warra Asoor sana jalaa nu baasa.
And they shall waste the land of Assyria with the sword, and the land of Nimrod in the entrances thereof: thus shall he deliver us from the Assyrian, when he cometh into our land, and when he treadeth within our borders.
7 Hambaan Yaaqoob namoota hedduu gidduutti akkuma fixeensa Waaqayyo biraa dhufuu, akkuma tiifuu marga irraa kan nama hin eegnee yookaan ilmaan namaa hin eeggannee taʼa.
And the remnant of Jacob shall be in the midst of many people as a dew from Yhwh, as the showers upon the grass, that tarrieth not for man, nor waiteth for the sons of men.
8 Hambaan Yaaqoob saboota gidduutti, uummata hedduu gidduuttis, akkuma leenca bineensota bosonaa gidduu jiruu, akkuma leenca saafela bushaayee gidduu jiru kan irra ejjetee isaan cicciruutii fi kan namni tokko iyyuu harkaa buusuu hin dandeenyee taʼa.
And the remnant of Jacob shall be among the Gentiles in the midst of many people as a lion among the beasts of the forest, as a young lion among the flocks of sheep: who, if he go through, both treadeth down, and teareth in pieces, and none can deliver.
9 Harki kee moʼannaadhaan diinota keetti kaʼa; amajaajonni kee hundinuu ni barbadeeffamu.
Thine hand shall be lifted up upon thine adversaries, and all thine enemies shall be cut off.
10 Waaqayyo akkana jedha; “Gaafas ani fardeen keessan gidduu keessanii nan balleessa; gaariiwwan keessan kan waraanaas nan barbadeessa.
And it shall come to pass in that day, saith Yhwh, that I will cut off thy horses out of the midst of thee, and I will destroy thy chariots:
11 Ani magaalaawwan biyya keessanii nan barbadeessa; daʼannoowwan keessan hundas nan diiga.
And I will cut off the cities of thy land, and throw down all thy strong holds:
12 Ani falfaltoota keessan nan balleessa; isinis deebitanii hin mortan.
And I will cut off witchcrafts out of thine hand; and thou shalt have no more soothsayers:
13 Ani fakkiiwwan kee soofamoo fi utubaawwan waaqeffannaa keetii gidduu keetii nan balleessa; ati siʼachi gad jettee hojii harka keetiitiif hin sagaddu.
Thy graven images also will I cut off, and thy standing images out of the midst of thee; and thou shalt no more worship the work of thine hands.
14 Ani siidaa Aasheeraa gidduu keetii buqqisee magaalaawwan kees nan barbadeessa.
And I will pluck up thy groves out of the midst of thee: so will I destroy thy cities.
15 Ani saboota naaf hin ajajamin irratti aarii fi dheekkamsaan haaloo nan baʼa.”
And I will execute vengeance in anger and fury upon the heathen, such as they have not heard.
