< Ishacyaah 18 >

1 Dalka baalasha hadhsanaya wuxuu ka sii shisheeyaa webiyaasha Kuush!
Tragedy is coming to the land of whirring wings that lies along the rivers of Ethiopia,
2 Ergooyin ayuu badda ku diraa, oo xataa doonniyo caw ah ayuu biyaha korkooda ku diraa oo yidhaahdaa, Wargeeyayaasha dheereeyow, waxaad u tagtaan quruun dheer oo sulubsan, oo ah dad tan iyo bilowgoodii aad looga cabsado, oo ah quruun xoog badan oo wax ku tumata, oo dalkeeda webiyadu kala qaybiyaan!
They send messengers downriver in papyrus boats. Swift messengers, go and take a message to a tall and smooth-skinned people, to a people feared by everyone, to a very powerful nation of conquerors, whose land is washed away by rivers.
3 Kuwiinna dunida deggan oo dhammow, kuwiinna dhulka joogow, markii buuraha korkooda calan laga taago fiiriya, oo markii buunka la yeedhiyana maqla.
All you people of the world, everyone who lives on earth—you will see when a banner is raised on the mountains, you will hear when a trumpet sounds.
4 Waayo, Rabbigu wuxuu igu yidhi, Anigoo aamusan, ayaan hoygayga wax ka soo fiirin doonaa sida kulaylka widhwidhaya ee qorraxda, iyo sida daruur darab ah oo xilliga beergoosadka hooraysa.
For this is what the Lord has told me: I will watch quietly from where I live, quiet as heat haze in sunlight, quiet as a mistcloud in the heat of harvest.
5 Waayo, beergoosadka ka hor markuu ubaxu dhammaado, oo uu ubaxu canab bislaanaya noqdo ayuu manjo laamaha yaryar ku gooyn doonaa, oo laamaha waaweyn ee sii faafayana wuu gooyn doonaa oo fogayn doonaa.
For before the harvest, after the flower is gone and becomes an unripe grape, he prunes the vine with a knife to take out the shoots and branches.
6 Oo iyaga waxaa dhammaantood looga wada tegi doonaa haadka buuraha iyo dugaagga dhulka, oo haadka ayaa iyaga kulaylka ka hadhsan doonaa, oo dugaagga dhulka oo dhammuna iyagay qabowga ka dugsan doonaan.
They will all be left as carrion for the birds of prey of the mountains, and for the wild animals. The birds will eat them in summer, and all the wild animals in winter.
7 Oo wakhtigaas waxaa Rabbiga ciidammada loo keeni doonaa hadiyad laga keenay dadka dheer oo sulubsan oo ah dad tan iyo bilowgoodii aad looga cabsado, oo ah quruun xoog badan oo wax ku tumata, oo dalkeeda webiyadu kala qaybiyaan, oo waxaa la keeni doonaa Buur Siyoon oo ah meesha magaca Rabbiga ciidammada.
At that time a gift will be brought to the Lord Almighty from a tall and smooth-skinned people, from a people feared by everyone, from a very powerful nation of conquerors, whose land is washed away by rivers. It will be brought to Mount Zion, the place identified with the Lord Almighty.
