Mulʼata 6
1 Anis yommuu Hoolichi chaappaawwan torban keessaa isa jalqabaa banu nan arge. Ergasiis uumamawwan lubbuu qabeeyyii keessaa inni tokko sagalee akka kakawweetiin, “Kottu!” jechuu isaa nan dhagaʼe.
And I saw that the Lamb opened one of the seven seals, and I heard one of the four living beings saying, like a voice of thunder, “Come!”
2 Anis nan ilaale; kunoo, fardi adiin tokko fuula koo dura ture! Inni farda sana yaabbates iddaa harkatti qabatee ture; gonfoonis ni kennameef; innis moʼachaa, ammas moʼachuuf baʼe.
And I looked and, wow, a white horse! And he who sat on it had a bow. And a crown was given to him; and he went out conquering, that is, in order to conquer.
3 Yommuu Hoolichi chaappaa lammaffaa banettis uumamni jiraataan inni lammaffaan, “Kottu!” jechuu isaa nan dhagaʼe.
And when He opened the second seal I heard the second living being saying, “Come!”
4 Fardi biraa daamaan tokkos ni dhufe. Isa fardicha yaabbatuufis akka inni nagaa lafa irraa balleessuu fi akka namoonni wal gorraʼan akka godhuuf humni kennameef; goraadeen guddaan tokkos ni kennameef.
And another horse went out, fiery red, and it was granted to him who sat on it to take the peace from the earth, so that they would slaughter each other; also, a huge sword was given to him.
5 Yommuu Hoolichi chaappaa sadaffaa banettis uumamni jiraataan inni sadaffaan, “Kottu!” jechuu isaa nan dhagaʼe; nan ilaales; kunoo, fardi gurraachi tokko fuula koo dura ture! Inni fardicha yaabbatus madaalii of harkaa qaba ture.
And when He opened the third seal I heard the third living being saying, “Come!” And I looked and, wow, a black horse! And he who sat on it had a pair of scales in his hand.
6 Anis waan akka sagalee uumamawwan lubbuu qabeeyyii afran gidduu dubbatame fakkaatu tokko, “Qamadiin safartuu tokkoo mindaa guyyaa tokkootiif, garbuun safartuu sadiis mindaa guyyaa tokkootiif haa taʼu; garuu zayitii fi daadhii wayinii hin miidhin!” jechuu isaa nan dhagaʼe.
And I heard a voice in the midst of the four living beings saying: “A ‘quart’ of wheat for a denarius and three ‘quarts’ of barley for a denarius; but do not harm the olive oil and the wine.”
7 Yommuu Hoolichi chaappaa afuraffaa banetti sagalee uumama jiraataa afuraffaa kan, “Kottu!” jedhu nan dhagaʼe.
And when He opened the fourth seal I heard a voice from the fourth living being saying, “Come!”
8 Anis nan ilaale; kunoo, fardi daalachi tokko fuula koo dura ture! Inni fardicha yaabbatus maqaan isaa Duʼa jedhama ture; Siiʼoolis dugda duubaan itti dhiʼaatee isa duukaa buʼaa ture. Isaanis goraadeen, beelaan, balaa fi bineensota lafaatiin akka ajjeesaniif kurmaana lafaa irratti humni ni kennameef. (Hadēs g86)
And I looked and, wow, a sickly pale horse! And as for the one sitting upon it, his name is Death, and Hades follows with him. And authority was given to him over a fourth of the earth, to kill by sword and by famine and by death, also by the wild animals of the earth. (Hadēs g86)
9 Yommuu inni chaappaa shanaffaa banetti ani iddoo aarsaa jalatti lubbuuwwan warra sababii dubbii Waaqaatii fi sababii dhuga baʼumsa eegan sanaatiif gorraʼamanii nan arge.
And when He opened the fifth seal I saw underneath the altar the souls of the people who had been slaughtered on account of the Word of God and on account of the testimony of the Lamb which they held.
10 Isaanis sagalee guddaadhaan, “Yaa Gooftaa Waan Hundaa Olii, qulqullichaa fi dhugaa, ati warra lafa irra jiraatanitti utuu hin murin hamma yoomiitti turta? Hamma yoomiittis dhiiga keenyaaf haaloo hin baatu?” jedhanii iyyan.
And they cried out with a loud voice saying: “How long, O Sovereign, Holy and True, until You judge and avenge our blood on those who dwell on the earth?”
11 Tokkoo tokkoo isaaniitiifis uffanni adaadiin ni kenname; hamma lakkoobsi warra isaan wajjin tajaajilaniitii fi lakkoobsi obboloota isaanii kanneen akkuma isaaniitti ajjeefamuuf jiran sanaa guutamutti akka yeroo xinnoo obsan isaanitti himame.
So a white robe was given to each of them, and they were told that they should rest a while longer, until both their fellow slaves and their brothers, who were about to be killed just like they were, should complete the number.
12 Yommuu inni chaappaa jaʼaffaa banettis nan arge. Sochii lafaa guddaa tokkotu ture. Aduun akka uffata gaddaa gurraachofte; jiʼis akkuma dhiigaa diimate;
And I saw, just when He opened the sixth seal—there was a severe earthquake, and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became like blood.
13 urjiiwwan samiis akkuma iji muka harbuu yommuu qilleensa jabaan raafamutti harcaʼu sana lafatti gad harcaʼan.
And the stars of heaven fell to the earth, like a fig tree drops its late figs when shaken by a strong wind.
14 Samiin akkuma kitaaba maramaatti marame; tulluu fi biyyi bishaaniin marfamtes iddoo isaaniitii buqqifaman.
And the sky was split, like a scroll being rolled up, and every mountain and island was moved out of its place.
15 Mootonni lafa irraa, bulchitoonnii fi abbootiin duulaa, sooreyyii fi namoonni jajjaboonni, namoonni kaan hundi, garbas taʼu birmaduun holqa keessaa fi kattaawwan tulluuwwanii gidduutti dhokatan.
And the kings of the earth and the magnates and the generals and the rich and the mighty, and every slave and every free man, hid themselves in the caves and among the rocks of the mountains.
16 Isaanis tulluuwwanii fi kattaawwan waammatanii akkana jedhu; “Nurratti kufaa; fuula isa teessoo irra taaʼu sanaatii fi dheekkamsa Hoolichaa duraa nu dhoksaa!
And they said to the mountains and the rocks: “Fall on us and hide us from the face of Him who sits on the throne and from the wrath of the Lamb!
17 Guyyaan dheekkamsa isaa guddaan sun gaʼeeraatii; egaa eenyutu guyyaa sana dura dhaabachuu dandaʼa ree?”
Because the great day of His wrath has come, and who is able to stand?”
