Miikiyaas 6
1 Waan Waaqayyo jedhu dhaggeeffadhaa: “Ol kakkaʼaatii fuula tulluuwwanii duratti dubbii keessan dhiʼeeffadhaa; gaarranis waan isin jettan haa dhagaʼan.
Hear ye what Jehovah 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, O ye mountains, the controversy of Jehovah! Hear, ye strong foundations of the earth! For Jehovah hath a controversy with his people; He contendeth 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 to thee, And wherein have I offended 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.
I brought thee up from the land of Egypt, And from the house of bondage I redeemed thee; I sent Moses, Aaron, and Miriam, to go before thee.
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 what Balak the king of Moab devised. And what Balaam, the son of Beor, answered him, What happened from Shittim to Gilgal, That ye may know the mercies of Jehovah.”
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 Jehovah, And bow myself before the most 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 Jehovah be pleased with thousands of rams, Or with ten thousands of rivers of oil? Shall I give my first-born for the sin of my soul, The fruit of my body for my transgression?
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 showed thee, O man, what is good; What doth Jehovah require of thee, But to do justly, and to love mercy, And to walk humbly before thy God?
9 Isin dhaggeeffadhaa! Waaqayyo akkana jedhee magaalattii waama: Maqaa kee sodaachuun ogummaa dha; “Ulee fi Isa ulee sana filate qalbeeffadhaa.
The voice of Jehovah crieth to the city, And the man of wisdom will discern thee; Hear ye the rod, and who hath threatened it!
10 Yaa mana hamaa, ani qabeenya isin dabaan argattanii fi madaalii sobaa abaaramaa sana irraanfadhaa?
Are there not yet in the houses of the unrighteous the treasures of iniquity, And the scanty measure, which is abominable?
11 Ani nama madaallii sobaatiin hojjetuu fi kan madaalii sobaa korojootti baatu akkasumatti dhiisaa?
Shall I count her pure with the wicked balances, And with the bag of deceitful weights?
12 Sooreyyiin ishee jalʼoota; uummanni ishee sobdoota; arrabni isaaniis gowwoomsaa dubbata.
For her rich men are full of violence, And her inhabitants speak lies, And their tongue is deceitful in their mouth.
13 Kanaafuu ani sababii cubbuu keessaniitiif isin diigee, isin balleessuu jalqabeera.
Therefore will I sorely smite thee, And make thee desolate on account 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 and not be satisfied, And hunger shall be within thee. Thou shalt remove, but shalt not save, And what thou savest 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 shalt not reap; Thou shalt tread the olives, but shalt not anoint thee with oil, And the grapes, but shalt not drink the 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 ye keep the statutes of Omri, And all the works of the house of Ahab, And walk in their devices; Therefore will I make thee a desolation, And thine inhabitants a derision; And ye shall bear the reproach of my people.
