< Ishacyaah 3 >

1 Waayo, bal eega, Sayidka ciidammada ahu wuxuu Yeruusaalem iyo dalka Yahuudah ka qaadayaa tiirka iyo waxa la cuskado, xataa tiirka cuntada oo dhan, iyo tiirka biyaha oo dhan,
The Commander of the armies of angels is about to take away from Jerusalem and [other places in] Judea everything that you depend on— all your food and water.
2 iyo ninka xoogga badan, iyo ninka dagaalyahanka ah, iyo xaakinka, iyo nebiga, iyo waxsheegaha, iyo odayga,
He will take away your heroes and your [other] soldiers, your judges and your prophets, people who do rituals to find out what will happen in the future and the elders,
3 iyo sirkaalka konton u taliya, iyo ninka sharafta leh, iyo lataliyaha, iyo saanaca, iyo saaxirka.
army officers and [other] officials, advisors and skilled craftsmen and those who perform rituals to predict the future.
4 Oo waxaan amiirro uga dhigi doonaa carruur, oo dhallaan baa iyaga u talin doona.
He will appoint boys to be your leaders; your children will rule you.
5 Oo dadkana midkood kastaba waxaa dulmi doona mid kale, oo mid kastaba waxaa dulmi doona deriskiisa, yarku wuxuu ku kibri doonaa odayga, oo kan hoosena kan sharafta leh.
People will treat each other cruelly: people will fight against their neighbors. Young people will insult older people, and vulgar/dishonorable people will sneer at people who should be honored.
6 Oo markaas nin wuxuu soo qaban doonaa walaalkiis oo jooga gurigii aabbihiis, oo wuxuu ku odhan doonaa, Adigu waxaad leedahay dhar, haddaba taliye noo noqo oo waxan burburka ahuna ha kaa hooseeyo.
At that time, someone will grab one of his brothers in his father’s house and say to him, “You have a coat, [which shows that you are respected]. [So] you be our leader! You rule this [city, which is now] a pile of ruins!”
7 Maalintaasba wuu dhawaaqi doonaa, oo wuxuu odhan doonaa, Anigu bogsiiye noqon maayo, maxaa yeelay, gurigayga dhar iyo dhuuni midna laguma arko, haddaba dadka taliye ha iiga dhigina.
[But] his brother will reply, “[No], I cannot help you, [because] I do not have [any extra] food or clothes in this house. [So] do not appoint me to be your leader!”
8 Waayo, Yeruusaalem waa duntay, oo dadka Yahuudahna waa dheceen, maxaa yeelay, hadalkooda iyo falimahooduba waxay col ku yihiin Rabbiga, oo indhihiisa ammaanta leh ayay ka cadhaysiiyaan.
Jerusalem and [the other towns in] Judah will be destroyed, because [everything] that the people do and say there opposes Yahweh, who is powerful and glorious, and they refuse to obey him. They rebel against him.
9 Muuqashada wejigooda ayaa iyaga ku marag furta oo dembigoodana way u sheegaan sidii dadkii Sodom oo kale, oo innaba ma ay qarsadaan. Naftoodaa hoogtay! Waayo, xumaan bay isu keeneen.
They even show on their faces that [they oppose Yahweh]. They are proud of their sins, like [the people of] Sodom were [long ago]; they do not try to hide their sins. [Because of their sins], terrible things will happen to them, [but] they will bring those disasters on themselves.
10 Waxaad sheegtaan inuu kan xaqa ah barwaaqaysnaan doono, waayo, iyagu waxay cuni doonaan midhihii falimahooda.
[Yahweh told me to] tell the righteous people that good things will happen to them; they will enjoy the blessings that they will receive for their good deeds.
11 Waxaa hoogay kan sharka ah, waayo, belaayaa ku dhici doonta, oo waxaa loo samayn doonaa wixii gacmihiisu sameeyeen oo kale.
[But] terrible things will happen to wicked people; they will be (paid back/punished) for [the evil things that] [MTY] they have done.
12 Laakiinse waxaa dulma dadkayga carruur, oo dumar baa iyaga u taliya. Dadkaygow, hoggaamiyayaashaadu way ku qaldaan, oo waxay kharribaan jidkaaga aad ku socoto.
[Now], youths [who have become leaders] treat my people cruelly, and women rule over my people. My people, your leaders are misleading you; they are causing you to go down the wrong road [MET].
13 Rabbigu wuxuu u sara joogaa inuu doodo, oo wuxuu u taagan yahay inuu dadka xukumo.
[It is as though] Yahweh has sat in his place in a courtroom and is ready to judge his people.
14 Rabbigu wuxuu dacwad la geli doonaa odayaasha iyo amiirrada dadkiisa. Waa idinka kuwa dhammaystay beercanabka, wixii aad masaakiinta ka soo dhacdeenna guryihiinnay ku dhex jiraan.
He will stand up to declare why the elders and rulers of his people should be punished: [he says], “The people of Israel are [like] [MET] a vineyard that I planted, but you have ruined it! Your houses are full of things that you have stolen from poor people.
15 Sayidka ah Rabbiga ciidammadu wuxuu leeyahay, War maxaad ula jeeddaan dadkayga aad burburinaysaan iyo masaakiinta aad wejigooda duqaynaysaan?
You should stop [RHQ] crushing my people! [It is as though] you are pushing the faces of poor people into the dirt!” [That is what] the Commander of the armies of angels says.
16 Oo weliba Rabbigu wuxuu yidhi, Gabdhaha Siyoon waa kibirsan yihiin, oo waxay socdaan iyagoo madax taagan oo indhaha ku baaqaya, oo qaadaya tallaabooyin yaryar oo degdeg ah, dugaagadaha cagahana way ka shanqadhiyaan,
Yahweh says this: “The women of Jerusalem are haughty/proud; they walk around sticking their chins out, and flirting [with men] with their eyes. They walk with tiny steps with bracelets on their ankles that jingle.
17 haddaba sidaas daraaddeed gabdhaha Siyoon madaxooda dhaladiisa Sayidku wuxuu u yeeli doonaa canbaar, oo wuxuu muujin doonaa cawradooda.
So I, Yahweh, will cause sores to be on their heads, and I will cause those beautiful women in Jerusalem to become bald.”
18 Oo maalintaas Sayidku wuxuu iyaga ka qaadi doonaa quruxda dugaagadaha cagahooda, iyo shabagyada timaha, iyo bilaha,
At the time [that Yahweh does that], he will strip away everything that the women of Jerusalem wear to make themselves beautiful—the ornaments on their ankles and their headbands, their crescent necklaces,
19 iyo waxa dhegaha la sudho, iyo sindiyada, iyo indhashareeryada,
their earrings and bracelets and veils,
20 iyo waxa madaxa lagu sharraxo, iyo silsiladaha lugaha, iyo waxa madaxa lagu xidho, iyo weelasha cadarka, iyo qardhaasaha,
their scarves and ankle bracelets and sashes, their perfumes and (charms/little things that they wear thinking that those things will protect them from evil),
21 iyo kaatummada, iyo sangelisyada,
their signet rings and nose rings,
22 iyo dharka lagu iido, iyo shaadirrada, iyo go'yaasha, iyo boorsooyinka,
their nice robes and capes and cloaks and purses,
23 iyo muraayadaha, iyo dharka wanaagsan, iyo garbasaarrada, iyo gambooyinka.
their mirrors and nice linen clothes and shawls.
24 Oo waxay noqon doontaa in meeshii ay ka carfi jireen ay ka qudhmuunaan doonaan, oo meeshii ay dhex-xidh ka xidhan jireenna xadhig bay dhexda ku xidhan doonaan, oo meeshii ay timo wanaagsan ka lahaayeenna waa looga xiiri doonaa, oo meeshii ay maro wanaagsan ka guntan jireenna, joonyad bay ka guntan doonaan, oo meeshii ay quruxda ka lahaayeenna waa laga sunti doonaa.
Instead of their having a nice smell from perfume, they will stink; instead of nice sashes, they will have ropes [around their waists because they will be captives]. Instead of having fancy hairdos, they will be bald. Instead of fancy/beautiful robes, they will wear rough sackcloth, and instead of being beautiful, they will be branded.
25 Raggaagu wuxuu ku le'an doonaa seefta, oo kuwaaga xoogga badanuna waxay ku le'an doonaan dagaalka.
Their husbands will be killed by [their enemies’] swords, and their soldiers [will also die] in battles.
26 Oo Siyoon irdaheeduna way ooyi doonaan oo ay barooran doonaan, oo iyadoo cidla ah ayay dhulka fadhiisan doontaa.
People [PRS] will mourn and cry at the gates [of the city]. The city will [be like] [MET] a woman who sits on the ground because everything that she owned is gone.
