< Yoo'Eel 3 >
1 Bal eeg, waayahaas iyo wakhtigaas, markaan soo celin doono maxaabiistii dadka Yahuudah iyo reer Yeruusaalem,
[Yahweh says this]: “At that time [DOU], I will enable [the people of] Jerusalem and [other places in] Judah to prosper again.
2 ayaan quruumaha oo dhan soo wada ururin doonaa, oo wada keeni doonaa dooxada Yehooshaafaad, oo halkaasaan iyaga ugu xukumi doonaa dadkayga iyo dhaxalkayga oo dadka Israa'iil ah aawadood, waayo, quruumaha way ku kala dhex firdhiyeen, oo dhulkaygiina way qaybsadeen.
[Then] in the Valley of Judgment I will gather together [the people of] all the [other] nations; I will judge [and punish] them because they scattered my Israeli people and forced them to go to other countries. They divided up my land
3 Oo iyagu dadkaygii way u saami riteen, oo wiil bay dhillo kiro u siiyeen, oo gabadhna waxay ku iibiyeen khamri ay cabbaan.
and they (threw marked stones/cast lots) to determine who would get [each of] my people. Then they sold [some of] the Israeli boys and girls [to get money to pay] for prostitutes and wine to drink.
4 Haddaba Turos, iyo Siidoon, iyo kulli gobollada Falastiin oo dhammow, bal maxaad iga doonaysaan? Ma abaalgud baad ii siinaysaan? Oo haddaad ii abaalguddaan, intaan dhaqsado ayaan degdeg abaalgudkiinna madaxiinna ugu soo celin doonaa.
You [people of] [APO] Tyre and Sidon [cities] and [you people of] the Philistia [region], I certainly have not [RHQ] done anything to harm you! [So] if you are trying to get revenge on me, I will very quickly get revenge on you.
5 Waxaad qaadateen lacagtaydii iyo dahabkaygii, oo alaabtaydii wanaagsanayd oo qurxoonaydna waxaad geliseen macbudyadiinna,
You have taken the silver and gold and [other] things from my temple and put them in your temples.
6 oo weliba dadka Yahuudah iyo reer Yeruusaalemna waxaad ka iibiseen dadka Gariigta ah, si aad iyaga dalkooda uga fogaysaan aawadeed.
[You dragged away] the people of Jerusalem and [other places in] Judah, and you took them far away and sold them to people in Greece.
7 Haddaba bal ogaada, iyagii waxaan ka soo kicin doonaa meeshii aad ka iibiseen, oo abaalgudkiinnana waxaan ku soo celin doonaa madaxiinna,
But I will cause my people to want to return from the places to which you sold them, and I will do to you what you did to them.
8 oo wiilashiinna iyo gabdhihiinnaba waxaan ka iibin doonaa dadka Yahuudah, oo waxay ka sii iibin doonaan dadka reer Shebaa oo ah quruun aad u fog, waayo, Rabbiga ayaa saas ku hadlay.
Then I will cause [some of] your sons and your daughters to be sold to the people of Judah! And [some of] them will be sold to the Sabea people-group, who live far away. [That will certainly happen because I], Yahweh, have said it.”
9 Haddaba quruumaha dhexdooda saas ka naadiya, Dagaal isu diyaariya, oo ragga xoogga badan oo dhan soo kiciya. Ragga dagaalyahanka ah oo dhammu ha soo dhowaadeen oo iyagu ha soo baxeen.
Proclaim to the [people of all] nations, “Prepare for a war! Summon your soldiers, and tell them to stand in their battle positions.
10 Haddaba birtii marashiyadiinna seefo ka tunta, oo manjooyinkiinnana warmo ka tunta, oo kii itaal yaru ha yidhaahdo, Xoog baan leeyahay.
[Take] your plows and make swords from them, and [take] your pruning knives and make spears from them. [Even] the weak people must [also] be like [MET] [strong] soldiers.
11 Quruumaha nagu wareegsan oo dhammow, kaalaya oo soo dhaqsada, oo dhammaantiin isa soo wada urursada. Rabbiyow, kuwaaga xoogga badan halkan u soo dir.
All you [people from the] nations that are near [Judah] must come quickly and gather [in the Valley of Judgment].” But Yahweh, [when that happens], send your army [of angels to attack them]!
12 Haddaba quruumuhu ha kaceen, oo ha yimaadeen dooxada Yehooshaafaad, waayo, halkaasaan u fadhiisan doonaa inaan xukumo quruumaha hareeraha ku wareegsan oo dhan.
The [people in] the nations near [Judah] must get ready and come to the Valley of Judgment. There Yahweh will sit and judge [and punish] them.
13 Waxa beerta laga goosan lahaa way bislaadeene haddaba mindi la gala, oo macsaradii canabku way buuxdaaye kaalaya ku tunta, berkedihii macsarooyinka way buuxdhaafeen, waayo, iyaga xumaantoodu way weyn tahay.
[They are like] [MET] crops that are ready to be harvested; so [strike them like] [MET] [a farmer] swings his sickle to cut the grain. They are like [MET] grapes that are piled high in the pits where they will be pressed; because they are very wicked, [punish them severely] [MET] now, like [MET] [a farmer] tramples on the grapes until the pits are full of juice.
14 Dad badan oo badan ayaa ku jira dooxada xukunka la gooyay, waayo, maalintii Rabbigu way ku soo dhow dahay dooxada xukunka.
[There will be] huge crowds of people in that Valley of Judgment. It will soon be the time that Yahweh [will punish them].
15 Qorraxdii iyo dayaxii way madoobaadeen, oo xiddigihiina iftiinkoodii way ceshadeen.
[At that time] there will be no light from the sun or moon, and the stars will not shine.
16 Rabbigu Buur Siyoon buu ka qaylin doonaa, oo codkiisuu kaga hadli doonaa Yeruusaalem, oo kolkaasay samooyinka iyo dhulkuba gariiri doonaan, laakiinse Rabbigu wuxuu dadkiisa u ahaan doonaa magangal, oo reer binu Israa'iilna wuxuu u ahaan doonaa qalcad adag.
From Zion [Hill] in Jerusalem Yahweh will shout, and his voice will be like thunder, and his voice will cause the sky and the earth to shake. But Yahweh will protect [MET] his people; he will be like [MET] a strong wall behind which the people of Israel will be protected.
17 Oo sidaasaad ku ogaan doontaan inaan anigu ahay Rabbiga Ilaahiinna ah, oo aan deggan ahay Siyoon oo ah buurtayda quduuska ah, oo markaasay Yeruusaalem quduus noqon doontaa, oo shisheeyayaal dambena iyada ma dhex mari doonaan innaba.
[Yahweh says], “At that time, you Israeli people will know that I am Yahweh, your God. I live on Zion, my sacred hill. Jerusalem will be a sacred [city], and [soldiers from] other countries will never conquer it again.
18 Oo wakhtigaas buuraha waxaa ka soo tifqi doona khamri macaan, oo kurahana caanaa ka soo shubmi doona, oo webiyaasha dalka Yahuudah oo dhammuna way durduri doonaan, oo guriga Rabbigana waxaa ka bixi doonta il biyo ah, wayna waraabin doontaa dooxada Shitiim.
At that time, there will be vineyards covering [MTY] the hills, and [your cattle and goats on] those hills will produce plenty of milk. The streams in Judah will never dry up. And a stream will flow from my temple into the Acacia Valley [northeast of the Dead Sea].
19 Dulmigii dadka Yahuudah lagu sameeyey aawadeed ayaa dalka Masar cidlo noqon doonaa, oo dalka reer Edomna wuxuu ahaan doonaa lamadegaan abaar ah, maxaa yeelay, iyagu dhiig aan xaq qabin ayay dalkooda ku dhex daadiyeen.
[The armies of] Egypt and Edom attacked the people of Judah and killed [MTY] many people who had not done anything that was wrong. So [now] those countries will become deserts,
20 Laakiinse dadka Yahuudah weligiis wuu jiri doonaa, oo Yeruusaalemna way raagi doontaa ab ka ab.
but there will always be people living in Jerusalem and [in other places] in Judea.
21 Oo waxaan u aari doonaa dhiiggoodii aanan hore ugu aarin, waayo, Rabbigu Buur Siyoon buu deggan yahay.
[I], Yahweh, live on Zion [Hill in Jerusalem], and I will get revenge on the people [of Egypt and Edom] who killed [MTY] [many of my people].”
