Yexesqeel 17
1 Oo haddana Eraygii Rabbiga ayaa ii yimid isagoo leh,
And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
2 Wiilka Aadamow, halxidho, oo reer binu Israa'iil masaal kula hadal,
Son of man, give out a dark saying, and make a comparison for the children of Israel,
3 oo waxaad ku tidhaahdaa, Sayidka Rabbiga ahu wuxuu leeyahay, Waxaa Lubnaan yimid gorgor weyn oo baadad waaweyn oo baalashiisu dheerdheer yihiin, oo baalal badan oo kala midab ah leh, oo wuxuu qaatay intii ugu sarraysay oo geedka kedarka la yidhaahdo.
And say, This is what the Lord has said: A great eagle with great wings, full of long feathers of different colours, came to Lebanon, and took the top of the cedar:
4 Oo wuxuu jaray laamihiisii yaryaraa, ta ugu korraysa, oo dal baayacmushtar badan geeyey, oo wuxuu dhigay magaalo baayacmushtariyaal.
Biting off the highest of its young branches, he took it to the land of Canaan, and put it in a town of traders.
5 Markaasuu qaatay iniinihii dalka, wuuna ku dhex beeray beer wanaagsan, oo wuxuu ag dhigay biyo badan dhinacood oo u qotomiyey sidii geed safsaf ah.
And he took some of the seed of the land, planting it in fertile earth, placing it by great waters; he put it in like a willow-tree.
6 Oo iyana way kortay, oo waxay noqotay geed canab ah oo fidsan laakiinse sarajooggiisu gaaban yahay oo laamihiisu xaggiisa u soo noqdeen, oo xididdadiisuna isagay ka hooseeyeen, oo saasuu geedcanab u noqday, oo uu laamo u soo bixiyey, oo uu caleemo cagaar ah u soo saaray.
And its growth went on and it became a vine, low and widely stretching, whose branches were turned to him and its roots were under him: so it became a vine, putting out branches and young leaves.
7 Oo weliba waxaa kaloo jiray gorgor kale oo weyn, oo baadad waaweyn, oo baalashiisu ay badan yihiin, oo bal eeg, geedkan canabka ahu xididdadiisuu xaggiisa u soo leexiyey, oo laamihiisiina xaggiisuu u soo bixiyey si uu uga waraabiyo meel ka leexsan meeshii lagu dhex beeray.
And there was another eagle with great wings and thick feathers: and now this vine, pushing out its roots to him, sent out its branches in his direction from the bed where it was planted, so that he might give it water.
8 Waxaa lagu beeray ciid wanaagsan oo biyo badan u dhow, si uu laamo u soo bixiyo, oo uu midho u dhalo, oo uu geedcanab wanaagsan u noqdo aawadeed.
He had it planted in a good field by great waters so that it might put out branches and have fruit and be a strong vine.
9 Waxaad ku tidhaahdaa, Sayidka Rabbiga ahu wuxuu leeyahay, Miyaa geedkaasu liibaani doonaa? Miyuusan xididdadiisa rujin doonin, oo uusan midhihiisa u googooyn doonin si uu u engego, oo caleemihiisa cagaarka ah oo dhammu ay u engegaan, in kastoo aan xoog weyn amase dad tiro badanu xididdadiisa rujin?
Say, This is what the Lord has said: Will it do well? will he not have its roots pulled up and its branches cut off, so that all its young leaves may become dry and it may be pulled up by its roots?
10 In kastoo la beeray miyuu liibaani doonaa? Oo miyuusan kulligiis engegi doonin markii dabaysha bari ay taabato? Meeshii lagu beeray wuu ka engegi doonaa.
And if it is planted will it do well? will it not become quite dry at the touch of the east wind, drying up in the bed where it was planted?
11 Oo haddana Eraygii Rabbiga ayaa ii yimid isagoo leh,
Then the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
12 Haddaba waxaad reerka caasiyoobay ku tidhaahdaa, War miyaydaan waxyaalahaas micnahooda garanayn? Waxaad ku tidhaahdaa, Bal eega, boqorkii Baabuloon Yeruusaalem buu yimid, oo wuxuu kaxaystay boqorkeedii iyo amiirradeediiba, oo Baabuloon buu u watay.
Say now to this uncontrolled people, Are these things not clear to you? Say to them, See, the king of Babylon came to Jerusalem and took its king and its rulers away with him to Babylon;
13 Oo boqorka farcankiisiina wuu watay, oo axdi buu la dhigtay, oo dhaar buu isagii marsaday, oo weliba wuxuu kaloo kaxaystay dalka raggiisii xoogga badnaa,
And he took one of the sons of the king and made an agreement with him; and he put him under an oath, and took away the great men of the land:
14 si ay boqortooyadu u sii hoosayso, oo ayan marnaba kor isu qaadin, laakiinse ay u sii taagnaato axdigiisa oo ay dhawrto aawadiis.
So that the kingdom might be made low with no power of lifting itself up, but might keep his agreement to be his servants.
15 Laakiinse isagu wuu ku caasiyoobay markuu ergooyinkiisii Masar ugu diray si ay isaga u siiyaan fardo iyo dad faro badan. Miyuu liibaanayaa? Kii waxyaalahaas oo kale sameeyaa miyuu baxsan doonaa? Amase intuu axdiga jebiyo miyuu baxsan doonaa?
But he went against his authority in sending representatives to Egypt to get from them horses and a great army. Will he do well? will he be safe who does such things? if the agreement is broken will he be safe?
16 Sayidka Rabbiga ahu wuxuu leeyahay, Noloshaydaan ku dhaartaye, sida xaqiiqada ah meesha uu deggan yahay boqorkii isaga boqorka ka dhigay, oo uu isagu dhaartiisii quudhsaday, oo uu weliba axdigiisii jebiyey, isaga qudhdiisa ayuu Baabuloon gudaheeda kula dhiman doonaa.
By my life, says the Lord, truly in the place of the king who made him king, whose oath he put on one side and let his agreement with him be broken, even in Babylon he will come to his death.
17 Oo Fircoon iyo ciidankiisa xoogga badan, iyo guuto badan toona isaga dagaalka kuma ay taageeri doonaan marka tuulmo la tuulo, oo qalcado la dhiso si dad badan loo baabbi'iyo.
And Pharaoh with his strong army and great forces will be no help to him in the war, when they put up earthworks and make strong walls for the cutting off of lives:
18 Maxaa yeelay, isagu dhaartii wuu quudhsaday markuu axdigii jebiyey, oo intuu gacantiisa ku dhaartay ayuu haddana waxyaalahaas oo dhan sameeyey, oo sidaas aawadeed innaba ma uu baxsan doono.
For he put his oath on one side in letting the agreement be broken; and though he had given his hand to it, he did all these things; he will not get away safe.
19 Sidaas daraaddeed Sayidka Rabbiga ahu wuxuu leeyahay, Noloshaydaan ku dhaartaye, sida xaqiiqada ah dhaartaydii uu quudhsaday iyo axdigaygii uu jebiyey ayaan madaxiisa kaga abaalmarin doonaa.
And so the Lord has said, By my life, truly, for my oath which he put on one side, and my agreement which has been broken, I will send punishment on his head.
20 Oo korkiisaan ku kala bixin doonaa shabaggayga, oo isagaa dabinkayga lagu soo qaban doonaa, oo Baabuloon waan keeni doonaa, oo xadgudubkii uu igu xadgudbay aawadiis ayaan isaga halkaas kula xaajoon doonaa.
My net will be stretched out over him, and he will be taken in my cords, and I will send him to Babylon, and there I will be his judge for the wrong which he has done against me.
21 Oo kuwiisa qaxay ee guutooyinkiisa oo dhammuba seef bay ku le'an doonaan, oo inta ka hadhaana waxay u kala firdhi doonaan qalbadaha oo dhan, oo markaasaad ogaan doontaan inaan aniga Rabbiga ahu waxan ku hadlay.
All his best fighting-men will be put to the sword, and the rest will be sent away to every wind: and you will be certain that I the Lord have said it.
22 Sayidka Rabbiga ahu wuxuu leeyahay, Weliba waxaan qaadan doonaa geedkedarka dheer laantiisa ugu sarraysa, oo meel baan ka taagi doonaa, oo waxaan gooyn doonaa mid curdan ah oo ka mid ah laamihiisa yaryar oo ugu korreeya, oo waxaan ku dul beeri doonaa buur dheer oo sare.
This is what the Lord has said: Further, I will take the highest top of the cedar and put it in the earth; cutting off from the highest of his young branches a soft one, I will have it planted on a high and great mountain;
23 Buurta dheer oo dalka reer binu Israa'iil ayaan ku beeri doonaa, oo waxay soo bixin doontaa laamo, oo midhona way dhali doontaa, oo waxay noqon doontaa geedkedar wanaagsan, oo waxaa hoostiisa ku hoyan doona haad cayn kasta ah, oo waxay degganaan doonaan hooska laamihiisa.
It will be planted on the high mountain of Israel: it will put out branches and have fruit and be a fair cedar: under it all birds of every sort will make their living-place, resting in the shade of its branches.
24 Oo dhirta duurka ku taal oo dhammuna waxay wada ogaan doonaan in aniga Rabbiga ahu aan geedkii sare hoos u dejiyey, oo aan geedkii hoose kor u qaaday, iyo inaan geedkii qoyanaa qallajiyey, oo aan geedkii qallalnaa magooliyey. Aniga Rabbiga ah ayaa saas ku hadlay oo saas sameeyey.
And it will be clear to all the trees of the field that I the Lord have made low the high tree and made high the low tree, drying up the green tree and making the dry tree full of growth; I the Lord have said it and have done it.
