< Mulʼata 10 >
1 Anis utuu ergamaan Waaqaa inni jabaan biraa tokko samii irraa gad buʼuu nan arge. Innis duumessa uffatee ture; mataa isaa irraan immoo sabbata Waaqaatu ture; fuulli isaa akka aduu, miilli isaas akka utubaa ibiddaa ture.
Then I saw a mighty angel coming down from heaven, wrapped in a cloud, with a rainbow over his head; his face was like the sun, and his legs were like pillars of fire.
2 Innis kitaaba maramaa xinnaa baname tokko harkatti qabatee ture. Miilla isaa mirgaa galaana irra, miilla isaa bitaa immoo lafa irra dhaabee ture;
In his hand he held an open scroll. He placed his right foot on the sea and his left foot on the land,
3 innis akkuma leenca aaduutti sagalee guddaadhaan iyye. Yommuu inni iyyettis bakakkaawwan torban ni dubbatan.
and cried out with a loud voice, like a lion roaring. When he cried out, the seven thunders sounded their voices.
4 Yommuu bakakkaawwan torban dubbatanittis ani barreessuuf qophaaʼeen ture; garuu sagalee, “Waan bakakkaawwan torban jedhan sana chaappaan cufi malee hin barreessin” jedhu tokko samii irraa nan dhagaʼe.
And when the seven thunders spoke, I was about to write. But I heard a voice from heaven saying, “Seal up what the seven thunders have said, and do not write it down.”
5 Ergamaan ani utuu inni galaanaa fi lafa irra dhaabatuu argee ture sunis harka isaa mirgaa samiitti ol qabe.
Then the angel I had seen standing on the sea and on the land raised his right hand to heaven
6 Innis isa bara baraa hamma bara baraatti jiraatu, isa samiiwwanii fi waan isaan keessa jiru hundumaa, lafaa fi waan isa keessa jiru hundumaa, galaanaa fi waan isa keessa jiru hundumaa uume sanaan kakatee akkana jedhe; “Ammaan achi lafa irra harkisuun hin jiru! (aiōn )
and swore by him who lives forever and ever, who created heaven and everything in it, the earth and everything in it, and the sea and everything in it, and said that there would no longer be delay, (aiōn )
7 Garuu guyyoota ergamaan torbaffaan malakata isaa afuufutti icciitiin Waaqaa akkuma inni raajota warra hojjettoota isaa taʼanitti labse sanatti ni raawwatama.”
but that in the days when the seventh angel is about to sound his trumpet, the mystery of God would be completed, according to the good news he announced to his servants the prophets.
8 Sagaleen ani samii irraa dhagaʼee ture sun ammas deebiʼee, “Dhaqiitii kitaaba maramaa banamee ergamaa galaanaa fi lafa irra dhaabatu harka jiru sana fudhadhu” naan jedhe.
Then the voice I had heard from heaven spoke to me again, saying, “Go take the little scroll that is open in the hand of the angel who is standing on the sea and on the land.”
9 Kanaafuu ani gara ergamichaa dhaqee akka inni kitaaba maramaa xinnaa sana naa kennuuf isa gaafadhe. Innis, “Fudhadhuutii nyaadhu; kitaabni kun garaa kee ni hadheessa; ‘afaan kee keessatti garuu akka dammaa miʼaawa’” naan jedhe.
So I went over to the angel and asked him to give me the little scroll. And he said to me, “Take the scroll and eat it. It will make yoʋr stomach bitter, but in yoʋr mouth it will be as sweet as honey.”
10 Anis kitaaba maramaa xinnaa sana ergamicha harkaa fudhadhee nan nyaadhe. Innis afaan koo keessatti akkuma dammaa miʼaawe; erga ani nyaadhe garuu garaan koo ni hadheeffame.
So I took the scroll from the angel's hand and ate it. In my mouth it was as sweet as honey, but when I had eaten it, my stomach turned bitter.
11 Ergasii immoo, “Ati waaʼee saba baayʼee, sanyii baayʼee, afaan baayʼeetii fi waaʼee mootota baayʼee ammas raajii dubbachuu qabda” jedhamee natti himame.
Then I was told, “Yoʋ must prophesy again about many peoples, nations, tongues, and kings.”
