Miikiyaas 6
1 Waan Waaqayyo jedhu dhaggeeffadhaa: “Ol kakkaʼaatii fuula tulluuwwanii duratti dubbii keessan dhiʼeeffadhaa; gaarranis waan isin jettan haa dhagaʼan.
Hear ye now what the LORD saith; Arise, contend thou before the mountains, and let the hills hear thy voice.
2 “Yaa tulluuwwan himata Waaqayyoo dhagaʼaa; hundeewwan lafaa kanneen bara baraa isinis dhaggeeffadhaa. Waaqayyo saba isaa irraa dubbii qabaatii; inni Israaʼel wajjin falmii qaba.
Hear ye, O mountains, the LORD’s controversy, and ye strong foundations of the earth: for the LORD hath a controversy with his people, and he will plead with Israel.
3 “Yaa saba ko, ani maalan si godhe? Ani maaliinan si dadhabsiise? Mee deebii naaf kenni.
O my people, what have I done unto thee? and wherein have I wearied thee? testify against me.
4 Ani biyya Gibxii sin baasee biyya garbummaa keessaa sin fure. Ani akka inni si qajeelchuuf Musee, akkasumas Aroonii fi Miiriyaamin siifan erge.
For I brought thee up out of the land of Egypt, and redeemed thee out of the house of servants; and I sent before thee Moses, Aaron, and Miriam.
5 Yaa saba ko, mee gorsa Baalaaq mootiin Moʼaab gaafatee fi deebii Balaʼaam ilmi Beʼoor kenneef yaadadhu. Ati akka hojii qajeelummaa Waaqayyoo beektuuf karaa ati Shixiimii hamma Gilgaalitti deemte sana yaadadhu.”
O my people, remember now what Balak king of Moab consulted, and what Balaam the son of Beor answered him from Shittim unto Gilgal; that ye may know the righteousness of the LORD.
6 Ani maaliinan fuula Waaqayyoo dura dhufee fuula Waaqa ol gubbaa jiruu duratti sagada? Ani aarsaa gubamuun, jabbii waggaa tokkootiin fuula isaa duratti dhiʼaadhuu?
Wherewith shall I come before the LORD, [and] bow myself before the high God? shall I come before him with burnt offerings, with calves of a year old?
7 Waaqayyo korbeeyyii hoolaa kuma hedduutti, zayitii laga kuma kudhaniitti ni gammadaa? Ani ilma koo hangafa, sababii yakka kootiitiif, sababii cubbuu lubbuu kootiitiifis dhala garaa koo aarsaa dhiʼeessuu?
Will the LORD be pleased with thousands of rams, [or] with ten thousands of rivers of oil? shall I give my firstborn [for] my transgression, the fruit of my body [for] the sin of my soul?
8 Yaa nama, inni waan gaarii si argisiiseera. Waaqayyo maal sirraa barbaada? Murtii qajeelaa kennuu fi araara jaallachuu, akka ati gad of qabdee Waaqa kee wajjin deemtu sirraa barbaada mitii?
He hath shewed thee, O man, what [is] good; and what doth the LORD require of thee, but to do justly, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with thy God?
9 Isin dhaggeeffadhaa! Waaqayyo akkana jedhee magaalattii waama: Maqaa kee sodaachuun ogummaa dha; “Ulee fi Isa ulee sana filate qalbeeffadhaa.
The LORD’s voice crieth unto the city, and [the man of] wisdom shall see thy name: hear ye the rod, and who hath appointed it.
10 Yaa mana hamaa, ani qabeenya isin dabaan argattanii fi madaalii sobaa abaaramaa sana irraanfadhaa?
Are there yet the treasures of wickedness in the house of the wicked, and the scant measure [that is] abominable?
11 Ani nama madaallii sobaatiin hojjetuu fi kan madaalii sobaa korojootti baatu akkasumatti dhiisaa?
Shall I count [them] pure with the wicked balances, and with the bag of deceitful weights?
12 Sooreyyiin ishee jalʼoota; uummanni ishee sobdoota; arrabni isaaniis gowwoomsaa dubbata.
For the rich men thereof are full of violence, and the inhabitants thereof have spoken lies, and their tongue [is] deceitful in their mouth.
13 Kanaafuu ani sababii cubbuu keessaniitiif isin diigee, isin balleessuu jalqabeera.
Therefore also will I make [thee] sick in smiting thee, in making [thee] desolate because of thy sins.
14 Ati inuma nyaatta; garuu hin quuftu; garaan kee amma illee duwwaa dha. Ati ni kaaʼatta; garuu homaa siif hin kuufamu; waan ati kuufattu sana ani goraadeetti kennaatii.
Thou shalt eat, but not be satisfied; and thy casting down [shall be] in the midst of thee; and thou shalt take hold, but shalt not deliver; and [that] which thou deliverest will I give up to the sword.
15 Ati ni facaafatta; garuu hin haammattu; ejersa ni cuunfatta; garuu zayitii isaa hin dibattu; ija wayinii ni cuunfatta; garuu daadhii wayinii hin dhugdu.
Thou shalt sow, but thou shalt not reap; thou shalt tread the olives, but thou shalt not anoint thee with oil; and sweet wine, but shalt not drink wine.
16 Ati sirna Omriitii fi hojii mana Ahaab hunda jabeessiteerta; gorsa isaaniis duukaa buuteerta. Kanaafuu ani si balleessee, uummata kee nan salphisa; isin tuffii sabootaa ni baattu.”
For the statutes of Omri are kept, and all the works of the house of Ahab, and ye walk in their counsels; that I should make thee a desolation, and the inhabitants thereof an hissing: therefore ye shall bear the reproach of my people.
