Zakkaariyaas 5
1 Ani ammas ol milʼadhe; kunoo kitaabni maramaan barrisu tokko fuula koo dura ture!
And I turned, and lifted up mine eyes, and looked and behold a flying sickle.
2 Ergamaan Waaqayyoo sunis, “Ati maal argita?” jedhee na gaafate. Anis, “Kunoo ani kitaaba maramaa dhundhuma digdama dheeratee dhundhuma kudhan balʼatu tokko nan arga” jedheen deebise.
And he said to me, What see you? And I said, I see a flying sickle, of the length of twenty cubits, and of the breadth of ten cubits.
3 Kana irratti inni akkana naan jedhe; “Kun abaarsa lafa hundumatti dhufaa jiruu dha; akka kitaabicha irratti barreeffametti, hattuun hundinuu ni barbadoofti; akkuma barreeffamni gama kaan irraa jedhutti namni sobaan kakatu hundinuu ni barbadeeffama.
And he said to me, This is the curse that goes forth over the face of the whole earth: for every thief shall be punished with death on this side, and every false swearer shall be punished on that side.
4 Waaqayyo Waan Hunda Dandaʼu akkana jedha; ‘Ani abaarsa kana gad nan erga; innis mana hattuutii fi mana nama sobaan maqaa kootiin kakatuu ni seena. Abaarsi kun mana isaa keessatti hafee, mana isaa, muka isaatii fi dhagaa isaa ni barbadeessa.’”
And I will bring it forth, says the Lord Almighty, and it shall enter into the house of the thief, and into the house of him that swears falsely by my name: and it shall rest in the midst of his house, and shall consume it, and the timber of it, and the stones of it.
5 Ergamaan Waaqayyoo kan natti dubbachaa ture sun dhufee, “Mee ol jedhii waan dhufaa jiru sana ilaali” naan jedhe.
And the angel that talked with me went forth, and said to me, Lift up your eyes, and see this that goes forth.
6 Anis, “Inni maali?” jedheen gaafadhe. Innis, “Kun quunnaa ittiin waa safaranii dha” jedhee deebise. Ammas itti dabalee, “Kun hammina saba guutummaa lafaa irra jiraatuu ti” jedhe.
And I said, What is it? And he said, This is the measure that goes forth. And he said, This is their iniquity in all the earth.
7 Ergasii qadaadni dilaalii irraa hojjetame irraa ol fuudhame; kunoo dubartiin tokko quunnaa sana keessa teessee turte!
And behold a talent of lead lifted up: and behold a woman sat in the midst of the measure.
8 Innis, “Kun hammina” jedhe; ergasii quunnaa keessatti gad ishee dhiibee qadaada dilaalii irraa hojjetame sana afaan quunnaatti deebise.
And he said, This is iniquity. And he cast it into the midst of the measure, and cast the weight of lead on the mouth of it.
9 Ergasii ani ol nan milʼadhe; kunoo dubartoonni qoochoo isaanii jalaa bubbee qaban lama fuula koo dura turan! Isaanis qoochoo akka qoochoo huummoo qabu ture; quunnaa sanas samii fi lafa gidduutti ol fuudhan.
And I lifted up mine eyes, and saw, and, behold, two women coming forth, and the wind was in their wings; and they had stork's wings: and they lifted up the measure between the earth and the sky.
10 Anis, “Isaan quunnaa sana eessatti geessu?” jedheen ergamaa Waaqayyoo kan natti dubbachaa ture sana gaafadhe.
And I said to the angel that spoke with me, Whither do these carry away the measure?
11 Innis, “Mana ijaaruuf jedhanii gara biyya Baabilonitti geessu. Yeroo manni sun ijaaramee qopheeffamutti quunnaa sana fuudhanii iddoo isaa kaaʼu.”
And he said to me, To build it a house in the land of Babylon, and to prepare [a place for it]; and they shall set it there on its own base.
