< Yexesqeel 17 >

1 Oo haddana Eraygii Rabbiga ayaa ii yimid isagoo leh,
And the word of Jehovah came to me, saying:
2 Wiilka Aadamow, halxidho, oo reer binu Israa'iil masaal kula hadal,
Son of man, put forth a riddle, and speak a parable to the house 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, Thus saith the Lord Jehovah: A great eagle, with great wings, with long feathers, full of plumage, which had divers colors, came to Lebanon, and took the highest branch of a cedar.
4 Oo wuxuu jaray laamihiisii yaryaraa, ta ugu korraysa, oo dal baayacmushtar badan geeyey, oo wuxuu dhigay magaalo baayacmushtariyaal.
He cropped off the top of its young twigs, and carried it into a land of traffic; he set it in a city of merchants.
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.
He took also one of the shoots of the land, and put it in a fruitful field; he placed it by great waters, and set it as 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 it grew and became a spreading vine of low stature, whose branches turned towards him, and whose roots were under him. It became a vine, that brought forth branches, and shot forth boughs.
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.
There was also another great eagle, with great wings and many feathers; and, behold, this vine bent its roots toward him, and shot forth its branches toward him, that he might water it from the beds where it was planted.
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.
And yet it was planted in a good soil, by great waters, that it might bring forth branches, and that it might bear fruit, and be a goodly 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 thou, Thus saith the Lord Jehovah: Shall it prosper? Shall not he pull up its roots, and cut off its fruit, that it wither? In all the leaves of its branching shall it wither; even without a mighty arm, or many people, shall he pluck it up by the 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.
Yea, behold, it is planted; but shall it prosper? Shall it not utterly wither, when the east wind toucheth it? It shall wither in the beds where it grew.
11 Oo haddana Eraygii Rabbiga ayaa ii yimid isagoo leh,
Moreover, the word of Jehovah 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 the rebellious house, Know ye not what these things mean? Say, behold, the king of Babylon came to Jerusalem, and took her king and her princes, and led them 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 took one of the king's offspring, and made a covenant with him, and took an oath of him, and the mighty of the land he took away,
14 si ay boqortooyadu u sii hoosayso, oo ayan marnaba kor isu qaadin, laakiinse ay u sii taagnaato axdigiisa oo ay dhawrto aawadiis.
that the kingdom might be brought low, so as not to lift itself up; that the covenant might be kept, and stand.
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 rebelled against him, in sending his ambassadors into Egypt, that they might give him horses and much people. Shall he prosper? Shall he escape that doeth such things? Shall he break the covenant and be delivered?
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.
As I live saith the Lord Jehovah, surely in the place where the king dwelleth that made him king, whose oath he despised, and whose covenant he broke, even with him in the midst of Babylon shall he die.
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.
Neither shall Pharaoh with his mighty army and great multitude accomplish anything for him in war, when they shall cast up mounds, and build forts to cut off many persons,
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.
he hath despised the oath, and broken the covenant; behold, he hath given the hand, and yet done all these things; he shall not escape!
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.
Therefore thus saith the Lord Jehovah: As I live, surely mine oath, which he hath despised, and my covenant, which he hath broken, will I recompense upon his own 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.
And I will spread my net upon him, and he shall be taken in my snare, and I will bring him to Babylon, and will contend with him there for his trespass which he hath committed 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.
And all his fugitives with all his hosts shall fall by the sword, and they that remain shall be scattered to all the winds; and ye shall know that I, Jehovah, have spoken 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.
Thus saith the Lord Jehovah: I also will take from the top of the high cedar, and will get it; and from the highest of its twigs will I crop a tender one, and plant it upon a high and lofty 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.
Upon a high mountain of Israel will I plant it, and it shall bring forth boughs, and bear fruit, and be a goodly cedar; and under it shall dwell birds of every wing; in the shadow of its branches shall they dwell.
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 all the trees of the field shall know that I, Jehovah, have brought down the high tree, and exalted the low tree; that I have dried up the green tree, and made the dry tree green. I, Jehovah, have spoken, and will do it.
