Ishacyaah 47
1 Gabadha bikradda ah ee Baabuloon ahay, soo deg, oo ciidda ku fadhiiso, magaalada reer Kaldayiinay, carshila'aan dhulka ku fadhiiso, waayo, mar dambe adiga laguuguma yeedhi doono mid dhaylo ah oo jilcisan.
Down—and sit in the dust, O virgin Daughter of Babylon, Sit on the ground—throneless, Daughter of the Chaldeans; For thou shalt no more be called Tender and Dainty.
2 Dhagaxshiidyada qaad oo wax shiid, masarka madaxa ka qaad, oo lugaha qaawi, tan iyo bowdada tafaxaydo, oo webiyaasha ka gudub.
Take millstones, and grind meal, —Put back thy veil—tuck up thy train Bare the leg, wade through streams:
3 Cawradaada waa la qaawin doonaa, ceebtaadana waa la arki doonaa. Waan aarsan doonaa, oo ninna uma tudhi doono.
Bared shall be thy shame, Yea seen thy reproach, —An avenging, will I take, And will accept no son of earth.
4 Bixiyahayaga magiciisa waxaa la yidhaahdaa Rabbiga ciidammada oo ah Kan Quduuska ah ee reer binu Israa'iil.
Our Redeemer, Yahweh of hosts, is his name! The Holy One of Israel.
5 Magaalada reer Kaldayiinay, shib dheh oo fadhiiso, meel gudcur ah gal, waayo, mar dambe laguuguma yeedhi doono sayidaddii boqortooyooyinka.
Sit silent, and get into darkness, Daughter of the Chaldeans! For thou shalt no more be called Mistress of Kingdoms.
6 Waxaan u cadhooday dadkaygii, oo dhaxalkaygii nijaas baan ka dhigay, oo adigaan gacanta kuu geliyey. Innaba iyagii uma aadan naxariisan, oo dadka gaboobay ayaad harqoodkaagii wax culus kaga dhigtay.
I had been provoked with my people, Had profaned mine inheritance, And given them into thy hand, …Thou shewedst them no compassion, Upon the elder, madest thou very heavy thy yoke.
7 Waxaad istidhi, Anigu weligayba waxaan ahaan doonaa sayidad, oo waxyaalahanna qalbiga ma aad gelin, oo ugudambaystoodiina sooma aadan xusuusan.
And thou saidst, Unto times age-abiding, shall I be Mistress, —Insomuch that thou laidst not these things to thy heart, Didst not keep in mind the issue thereof,
8 Haddaba bal waxyaalahan maqal, taada iska raaxaysata oo istareexa ku joogtoy. Waxaad qalbiga iska tidhaahdaa, Anigaa ah oo aniga mooyaane cid kale ma jirto, anigu innaba carmal ma noqon doono, oo ma gablami doono.
Now, therefore hear this, Thou Lady of pleasure Who dwelleth securely, Who saith in her heart, —I, [am], and there is no one besides, I shall not sit a widow, Nor know loss of children.
9 Laakiinse labadan waxyaalood isku maalin qudha ayay isku daqiiqad kuu iman doonaan, waana gablannimo iyo carmalnimo. Aad iyo aad bay kuugu soo degi doonaan in kastoo aad saaxirnimo badan iyo falfal tiro badan badisay.
Yet shall there come to thee—both these, in a moment, in one day, Loss of children and widowhood, —To their full, have they come on thee, Spite of the mass of thine incantations, Spite of the great throng of thy spells.
10 Waayo, waxaad isku hallaysay sharnimadaada, oo waxaad istidhi, Ninna ima arko. Waxaa ku qalday xigmaddaada iyo aqoontaada, oo waxaad qalbiga iska tidhi, Anigaa ah, oo aniga mooyaane cid kale ma jirto.
And so thou didst trust in thy wickedness, Thou saidst, no one, seeth me, Thy wisdom and knowledge, the same, seduced thee, —Therefore saidst thou in thy heart, I [am], and there is no one besides.
11 Haddaba sidaas daraaddeed masiibo baa kugu soo degi doonta, mana aad garan doontid si ay kuugu iman doonto, belaayaa kugu dhici doonta, oo mana aad kari doontid inaad iska fogaysid, oo baabbi'id baa si kedis ah kuugu soo degi doonta, taasoo aadan aqoon.
Therefore shall come on thee—Mischief, Thou shalt not know how to charm it away Yea there shall fall on thee, Ruin, Thou shalt not be able to appease it, —And there shall come on thee suddenly. Desolation. Thou shalt not know.
12 Haddaad ku faa'iidi karaysid iyo haddaad ku adkaan karaysid, bal haatan la soo istaag falfalkaaga iyo saaxirnimadaada faraha badan oo aad tan iyo yaraantaadii ku soo hawshoonaysay.
Take thy stand, I pray thee, With thy spells. And with the throng of thine incantations wherein thou hast wearied thyself from thy youth, —Peradventure thou mayest be able to profit Peradventure thou mayest strike me with terror.
13 Waxaad ku daashay talooyinkaagii tirada badnaa, haddaba xiddigayaqaannada, iyo xiddigasheegyada, iyo xilliyasheegyaduba ha sara joogsadeen, oo ha kaa badbaadiyeen waxyaalaha kugu soo degi doona.
Thou hast worn thyself out with the mass of thy consultations, —Let them take their stand I pray thee that they may save thee—The dividers of the heavens—The gazers at the stars, They who make known by new moons, Somewhat of the things which shall come upon thee.
14 Bal eeg, iyagu waxay noqon doonaan sida xaab oo kale, oo dabka ayaa wada gubi doona, oo iyana xoogga ololka iskama ay samatabbixin doonaan, oo dabkaasuna ma ahaan doono dhuxul la kulaalo, amase dab la hor fadhiisto.
Lo! they have become as straw—a fire, hath burned them up, They shall not deliver their own soul from the grasp of the flame, —There is, no live coal to warm them, nor blaze to sit before.
15 Saasay kuu noqon doonaan waxyaalihii aad ku hawshootay, oo kuwii aad macaamilada la lahayd tan iyo yaraantaadii midkood kastaaba meeshiisuu tegi doonaa, oo mid ku badbaadiyana ma jiri doono.
Such, have they become to thee, with whom thou hast wearied thyself, —Thy merchants—from thy youth, will every man stagger straight onwards—There is none to save thee.
