Mulʼata 18
1 Ergasiis utuu ergamaan biraa samii irraa gad buʼuu nan arge. Innis taayitaa guddaa qaba ture; ulfina isaatiinis lafti ni ifte.
After these things I saw another angel coming down out of the heaven, having great authority; and the earth was lighted with his glory.
2 Innis akkana jedhee sagalee guddaadhaan iyye: “‘Kufteerti! Baabilon guddittiin kufteerti!’ Lafa jireenya hafuurota hamoo, lafa qubata hafuurota xuraaʼoo hundaa, iddoo jireenya simbirroota xuraaʼoo, iddoo jireenya bineensota xuraaʼoo fi jibbisiisoo hundaa taateerti.
And he cried with a strong voice, saying, Fallen, fallen is Babylon the great, and has become the habitation of demons, and the hold of every unclean spirit, and the den of every unclean and hateful bird;
3 Saboonni hundinuus, daadhii wayinii dheekkamsa sagaagala ishee dhuganiiruutii. Mootonni lafaas ishee wajjin sagaagalaniiru; daldaltoonni addunyaas qananii ishee guddaa sanaan sooromaniiru.”
because all nations have fallen of the wine of the wrath of her fornication, and the kings of the earth have committed fornication with her, and the merchants of the earth have become rich from the costliness of her delicacy.
4 Sagalee biraas samii irraa nan dhagaʼe; innis akkana jedha: “‘Yaa saba ko, isin akka cubbuu ishee keessatti hin hirmaanneef, balaa ishee irra gaʼus akka hin qoodanneef, kottaa ishee keessaa baʼaa;’
And I heard another voice out of the heaven, saying, Come out from her, my people, in order that you may not partake of her sins, and in order that you may not receive of her plagues;
5 cubbuun ishee hamma samiitti ol tuulameeraatii; Waaqnis yakka ishee yaadateera.
because her sins have mounted up to heaven, and God has remembered her iniquities.
6 Akkuma isheen kennitetti isinis isheef kennaa; akkuma hojii isheettis dachaa lama godhaatii isheef deebisaa. Xoofoo isheen itti bulbultettis dachaa lama godhaatii isheef bulbulaa.
Give unto her as indeed she has given, and double unto her double according to her works: in the cup which she mixed, mix unto her double:
7 Hammuma isheen ulfina ofii kennitee qananii guddaadhaan jiraatte sana, qixxeedhuma isaa dhiphinaa fi gadda isheef kennaa. Isheenis garaa ishee keessatti, ‘Ani akka mootittii tokkootti nan taaʼa; ani haadha hiyyeessaa miti; gonkumaas hin gaddu’ jettee of jajji.
as to so many things as she has glorified herself, and lived wantonly, give unto her so much torment and sorrow. Because she says in her heart, I sit a queen, and am no widow; and I see no sorrow;
8 Kanaafuu dhaʼichi garaa garaa jechuunis, duuti, gaddii fi beelli guyyuma tokkotti ishee irra ni gaʼa. Waaqni Gooftaan isheetti murteessu sun waan jabaa taʼeef, isheen ibiddaan ni gubamti.
therefore in one day shall her plagues come, death, and mourning, and famine; and she shall be utterly burnt up with fire: because God, the one judging her, is a mighty Lord.
9 “Mootonni lafaa warri ishee wajjin sagaagalanii fi warri qananii guddaadhaan ishee wajjin jiraatan yommuu aara gubamuu ishee arganitti isheef ni booʼu; ni wawwaatus.
And the kings of the earth, who have committed fornication with her, and lived wantonly, will weep and wail over her, when they may see the smoke of her burning,
10 Isaanis dhiphina ishee waan sodaataniif fagoo dhaabatanii, “‘Wayyoo! Wayyoo! Yaa magaalaa guddittii, yaa Baabilon magaalattii jabduu! Badiin kee saʼaatuma tokko keessatti dhufeeraatii!’ jedhu.
and standing afar off on account of the fear of her torment, saying, Alas, alas, the great city, the strong city, Babylon! because in one hour thy judgment came.
11 “Daldaltoonni lafaas siʼachi waan namni tokko iyyuu miʼa daldala isaanii hin binneef isheef ni booʼu; ni wawwaatus.
And the merchants of the earth are weeping and mourning over her; because no one any longer buys their merchandise:
12 Miʼi daldala isaaniis warqee, meetii, dhagaawwan gatii guddaatii fi lula, uffata haphii quncee talbaa irraa hojjetame, uffata dhiilgee, uffata haarriitii fi bildiimaa, muka urgaaʼaa gosa hundaa, miʼa ilka arbaa irraa hojjetame hunda, miʼa muka gatii guddaa irraa hojjetame hunda, miʼa naasii irraa hojjetame hunda, miʼa sibiilaatii fi miʼa dhagaa adii irraa hojjetame hundaa fi
their merchandise of gold, and of silver, and of precious stones, and of pearls, and of fine linen; and of purple, and of silk, and of scarlet, and all thyine wood, and every vessel of ivory, and every vessel of most valuable wood, and of brass, and of iron, and of marble;
13 qarafaa fi urgooftuu, ixaana, qumbii, haphee urgaaʼaa, daadhii wayiniitii fi zayitii ejersaa, daakuu bullaaʼaa fi qamadii, loowwanii fi hoolota, fardeenii fi gaariiwwan, akkasumas garbootaa fi lubbuuwwan namootaa faʼa.
and cinnamon, and amomum, and incense, and myrrh, and libation, and wine, and oil, and fine flour, and wheat, and cattle, and sheep, and horses, and chariots, and bodies and souls of men;
14 “Isaanis, ‘Iji waan ati hawwite sanaa si duraa badeera. Badhaadhummaa fi bareedinni kee hundinuu sirraa badeera; gonkumaas deebitee hin argattu’ isheedhaan jedhu.
and the fruit of thy soul's inordinate desire has departed from thee; and all things bright and shining have perished from thee, and they will no longer find them.
15 Daldaltoonni miʼa kanneen gurguratanii ishee irraa badhaadhummaa argatanis dhiphina ishee sodaatanii fagoo dhaabatu. Isaanis booʼaa, wawwaachaas,
The merchants of these things, who have grown rich from her, will stand a long way off on account of the fear of her torment, weeping and mourning;
16 sagalee guddaadhaan akkana jedhu: “‘Wayyoo! Wayyoo, yaa magaalaa guddittii; yaa ishee uffata haphii quncee talbaa irraa hojjetame, uffata dhiilgee fi uffata bildiimaa uffatte, yaa ishee warqeedhaan, dhagaa gatii guddaatii fi lulaan miidhagfamte!
saying, Alas, alas, the great city, clothed in fine linen, and purple, and scarlet, and gilded with gold, and precious stone, and pearl! because in one hour so great riches have come to desolation.
17 Badhaadhummaan guddaan akkanaa saʼaatuma tokko keessatti barbadaaʼe!’ “Ajajjuun doonii hundinuu, warri dooniin imala deeman hundinuu, warri doonii irra hojjetanii fi warri galaana irra hojjechuun jiraatan hundinuu fagaatanii ni dhaabatu.
And every pilot, and every one sailing to the place, both the sailors and so many as traverse the sea, stood a long way off,
18 Isaan yommuu aara gubamuu ishee arganitti, ‘Magaalaan akka magaalaa guddittii kanaa jiraattee beektii?’ jedhanii iyyu.
and they continued to cry seeing the smoke of her burning, saying, Who is like unto the great city?
19 Isaanis awwaara mataatti firfirfatanii booʼaa, wawwaachaas akkana jedhanii iyyu: “‘Wayyoo! Wayyoo, yaa magaalaa guddittii, yaa ishee warri galaana irraa dooniiwwan qaban hundinuu qabeenya isheetiin sooroman! Ishee saʼaatuma tokko keessatti barbadoofte!’
And they continued to cast dust upon their heads, and cry, weeping and mourning, saying, Alas, alas, the great city, in which all those having ships in the sea became rich from her costliness! that in one hour she is made desolate.
20 “Yaa samii kufaatii isheetti gammadi! Isin sabni Waaqaa gammadaa! Ergamoonnii fi raajonni gammadaa! Waaqni ishee irratti isiniif mureeraatii.”
Rejoice over her, O heaven, and the saints, and the apostles, and the prophets; because God has judged your judgment from her.
21 Ergamaan jabaan tokkos dhagaa hamma dhagaa daakuu gaʼu tokko fuudhee galaanatti gad darbatee akkana jedhe: “Baabilon magaalaa guddittiin, akkasuma furguggifamtee ni darbatamti; gonkumaas deebitee hin argamtu.
And one strong angel lifted up a stone like a great millstone, and cast it into the sea, saying, Thus with a mighty fall shall Babylon the great city, be cast down, and can be found no more.
22 Sagaleen warra baganaa fi muuziiqaa taphatanii, sagaleen warra ulullee fi malakata afuufanii siʼachi si keessatti hin dhagaʼamu. Ogeessi hojii harkaa tokko iyyuu, siʼachi si keessatti hin argamu. Sagaleen dhagaa daakuus, siʼachi si keessatti hin dhagaʼamu.
And the voice of harpers, and musicians, and flute-players, and trumpeters, shall no more be heard in thee; and every artificer of every art shall no more be found in thee; and the sound of the mill shall no longer be heard in thee;
23 Ifni ibsaa, lammata si keessatti hin ifu. Sagaleen misirrichaatii fi misirrittii, lammata si keessatti hin dhagaʼamu. Daldaltoonni kee namoota gurguddaa addunyaa turan. Falfala keetiin sabni hundinuu gowwoomfameera.
and the light of a candle shall no more shine in thee; and the voice of the bridegroom and the bride shall no longer be heard in thee: because thy merchants were the great men of the earth; because by thy sorcery all nations were deceived,
24 Dhiigni raajotaatii fi dhiigni qulqullootaa, dhiigni warra lafa irratti gorraʼaman hundumaas ishee keessatti argame.”
truly in her is found the blood of prophets, and saints, and all those who have been slain upon the earth.
