< Caamoos 5 >
1 Dadka Israa'iilow, maqla eraygan aan idiinku barooranayo.
Listen, people of Israel, to this funeral lament that I sing about you!
2 Bikradda ah dalka Israa'iil waa dhacday, oo mar dambena ma sara joogsan doonto. Dalkeedii ayaa lagu dayriyey, oo qof kor u qaada lama arko.
Virgin Israel has fallen, and will never rise again! She lies abandoned on the ground, and there is no one to help her up.
3 Waayo, Sayidka Rabbiga ahu wuxuu leeyahay, Magaaladii ay kuni ka bixi jireen boqol baa u hadhi doona, oo tii ay boqoli ka bixi jireenna toban baa dadka Israa'iil u hadhi doona.
This is what the Lord says: From a city that sends out a thousand soldiers, only a hundred will return; from a city that sends out a hundred soldiers, only ten will return.
4 Waayo, Rabbigu wuxuu dadka Israa'iil ku leeyahay, Aniga i doondoona aad noolaataane.
This is what the Lord says to the people of Israel: Look to me so you may live!
5 Laakiinse Beytel ha doondoonina, Gilgaalna ha gelina, Bi'ir Shebacna ha u gudbina, waayo, sida xaqiiqada ah Gilgaal maxaabiisnimo bay geli doontaa, oo Beytelna way baabbi'i doontaa.
Do not look to the false gods of Bethel, do not go to the pagan shrines of Gilgal or travel to those of Beersheba. For Gilgal will go into exile, and Bethel will come to nothing.
6 Si aad u noolaataan, oo uusan Rabbigu sidii dab reer Yuusuf ugu soo farabbaxsan, oo aan dabku laasan, oo aan Beytel laga waayin wax demiya, Rabbiga doondoona,
Look to the Lord so you may live! Otherwise he will explode like fire against the descendants of Joseph and no one from Bethel will be able to quench it.
7 kuwiinna caddaaladda u roga dacar oo xaqnimadana dhulka ku tuura.
You twist justice and make it bitter, you throw integrity to the ground.
8 Doondoona kan sameeyey ururrada xiddigaha ah oo la yidhaahdo Toddobaadyada iyo Oriyon, oo gudcurka subaxnimo u beddela, oo maalintana madoobeeya si ay habeen u noqoto, kan biyaha badda u yeedha oo dhulka ku daadiya, magiciisu waa Rabbi.
The One who made the Pleiades and Orion, who turns the darkness into morning, and daytime into night, who calls for the water of the seas, and pours it down as rain upon the earth—the Lord is his name!
9 Isagu baabba' buu ku dejiyaa kuwa xoogga badan, si ay baabba'du ugu dhacdo qalcadda.
In a flash he cuts down the strong and destroys the fortresses.
10 Way neceb yihiin kii iridda wax ku canaanta, oo way karhaan kii si qumman u hadla.
You hate anyone who confronts injustice and loathe anyone who speaks honestly.
11 Miskiinka baad ku tumataan, oo waxaad ka qaadataan sarreen badan, sidaas daraaddeed guryihii aad dhagax la qoray ka dhisateen kuma hoyan doontaan, oo beercanabyadii wanwanaagsanaa ee aad beerateenna khamrigooda kama cabbi doontaan.
Because you trample down the poor and impose a tax on their grain, building for yourselves impressive houses, you will not live in them, and you will not drink wine from the fine vineyards you have planted.
12 Waayo, waan ogahay xadgudubyadiinnu inay badan yihiin, iyo dembiyadiinnu inay waaweyn yihiin, kuwiinnan kii xaqa ah dhiba, ee laaluush qaata, oo masaakiinta iridda joogtana xaqooda ka leexiya.
For I know the extent of your wrongdoing and your numerous sins. You oppress good people by taking bribes, and you prevent the poor from getting justice in the courts.
13 Haddaba kii miyir lahu wakhtigaas wuu aamusnaan doonaa, waayo, waa wakhti shar ah.
So smart people keep quiet in such evil times.
14 Wanaagga doondoona, sharkase ha doondoonina, aad noolaataane, oo sidaasuu Rabbiga ah Ilaaha ciidammadu idiinla jiri doonaa sidaad u tidhaahdaan.
Do what is right, and not evil, so you may live. Then the Lord God of power will be with you, as you claim he is.
15 Sharka nebcaada, oo wanaagga jeclaada, oo caddaalad iridda ku sameeya, waayo, waxaa suurtowda in Rabbiga ah Ilaaha ciidammadu uu u roonaado kuwa reer Yuusuf ka hadhay.
Hate evil and love good—and make sure justice wins out in your courts. Maybe the Lord God of power will have mercy on those who are left of Jacob's people.
16 Haddaba Rabbiga ah Ilaaha ciidammada oo ah Sayidku wuxuu leeyahay, Dariiqyada oo dhan waxaa ka yeedhi doonta baroor, oo jidadka oo dhan waxaa laga odhan doonaa, Hoogay! Hoogay! Oo ninka beerreyda ah waxaa loogu yeedhi doonaa tacsi, oo kuwa baroorta aad u yaqaanna waxaa loogu yeedhi doonaa baroorasho.
For this is what the Lord, the Lord God of power says: There will be weeping in the city squares and wailing in the streets. They will call even the farmers to grieve, as well as the professional mourners.
17 Oo beercanabyada oo dhanna waxaa jiri doonta baroorasho, waayo, Rabbigu wuxuu leeyahay, Anigu waan idin dhex mari doonaa.
There will be wailing in every vineyard, for I will pass through the midst of you, says the Lord.
18 Kuwiinna maalinta Rabbiga jeclaystow, waa idiin hoog. Maxaad maalinta Rabbiga u doonaysaan? Waa gudcur, oo iftiin ma aha.
How disastrous it will be for those of you who long for the day of the Lord. Why would you want the day of the Lord to come? It will bring darkness, not light.
19 Waa sidii nin libaax ka cararay oo orso ka hor timid, ama intuu guri galay derbiga ku tiirsaday oo markaas abeeso gacanta ka qaniintay.
It will be like a man running away from a lion only to meet a bear; or a man who goes home and leans his hand on a wall, only to be bitten by a snake.
20 Maalinta Rabbigu sow ma ahaan doonto gudcur aan iftiin lahayn, iyo xataa gudcur weyn oo aan dhalaal lahayn?
Isn't the day of the Lord darkness without light? Yes, pitch dark without a glimmer of light.
21 Iidihiinna waan nebcahay, waanna quudhsadaa, oo shirarkiinnana kuma farxo.
I hate, I despise your festivals and take no delight in your religious assemblies.
22 In kastoo aad ii bixisaan qurbaannadiinna aad gubtaan iyo qurbaannadiinna hadhuudhka ah anigu aqbali maayo, oo qurbaannadiinna nabaadiino oo xoolihiinna buurbuuranna dan ka yeelan maayo.
Even though you present me with burnt offerings and grain offerings, I will not accept them. As for your peace offerings of fattened cattle—I will not even look at them.
23 Iga fogeeya qaylada gabayadiinna, waayo, anigu dhegaysan maayo luuqda shareeradihiinna.
Stop your noisy worship songs. I will not listen to the melody of your harps.
24 Laakiinse caddaaladdu sida biyo ha u qulqusho, oo xaqnimaduna sida webi fatahaya ha u yaacdo.
Rather let justice flow like a river, and doing right like an ever-flowing stream.
25 Bal reer binu Israa'iilow, allabaryo iyo qurbaanno miyaad cidladii iigu bixiseen afartankii sannadood?
Did you bring me sacrifices during those forty years in the desert, people of Israel?
26 Waxaadse sidateen Taambuuggii Moleg iyo sanamyadii Kiyuun, kaasoo ah xiddigtii ilaahiinnii ee aad nafsaddiinna u samaysateen.
But now you carry idols of Sakkuth your king and Kaiwan your star god that you made for yourselves.
27 Haddaba sidaas daraaddeed Rabbiga magiciisu yahay Ilaaha ciidammadu wuxuu leeyahay, Anigu waxaan idinka dhigi doonaa in maxaabiis ahaan laydiinku kaxaysto Dimishaq shishadeeda.
So I will send you into exile in a land beyond Damascus, says the Lord, whose name is the God of power.
