Malaakii 1
1 Kanu waa warka culus ee Eraygii Rabbiga oo Malaakii loogu soo dhiibay dadka dalka Israa'iil.
The burden of the word of the Lord to Israel by the hand of Malachi.
2 Rabbigu wuxuu leeyahay, Anigu waan idin jeclaaday, laakiinse idinku waxaad tidhaahdaan, War sidee baad noo jeclaatay? Ceesaw sow Yacquub walaalkiis ma ahayn? ayaa Rabbigu leeyahay, laakiinse Yacquub waan jeclaaday,
I have loved you, says the Lord, and you have said, “In what way have you loved us?” Was not Esau brother to Jacob, says the Lord? And have I not loved Jacob,
3 Ceesawse waan necbaaday, oo buurihiisiina cidla baan ka dhigay, oo dhaxalkiisiina waxaan siiyey dawacooyinka cidlada.
but held hatred for Esau? And I have set his mountains in solitude, and his inheritance with the serpents of the desert.
4 In kastoo reer Edom yidhaahdaan, Annaga waa nala dumiyey, laakiinse waannu soo noqon doonnaa, oo meelaha cidlada ah waannu dhisi doonnaa, Rabbiga ciidammaduse wuxuu leeyahay, Way dhisi doonaan, laakiinse anigu waan dumin doonaa, oo dadku wuxuu ku magacaabi doonaa, Dalka Xumaanta, iyo dadka uu Rabbigu weligiis u cadhaysan yahay.
But if Idumea will say, “We have been destroyed, but when we return, we will build up what has been destroyed,” thus says the Lord of hosts: They will build up, and I will destroy. And they will be called “The limits of impiety,” and, “The people with whom the Lord has been angry, even to eternity.”
5 Oo indhihiinnuna way arki doonaan, oo idinku waxaad odhan doontaan, Rabbigu ha laga weyneeyo soohdinta dalka Israa'iil shishadeeda.
And your eyes will see. And you will say, “May the Lord be magnified beyond the limits of Israel.”
6 Wiil wuxuu murweeyaa aabbihiis, addoonna sayidkiisa, haddaba haddii aan aabbe ahay, meeday murwaddaydii? Haddiise aan sayid ahay, meeday cabsidaydii? Wadaaddada magacayga quudhsadayow, Rabbiga ciidammadu saasuu idinku leeyahay. Idinkuna waxaad leedihiin, War sidee baannu magacaaga u quudhsannay?
The son honors the father, and the servant his master. If, therefore, I am Father, where is my honor? And if I am Master, where is my fear? says the Lord of hosts to you, O priests, who despise my name. And you have said, “In what way, have we despised your name?”
7 Idinku cunto nijaasooday ayaad meeshayda allabariga ku dul bixisaan, oo weliba waxaad leedihiin, War sidee baannu kuu nijaasaynay? Taas waxaad ku tidhaahdaan, Miiska Rabbigu waa mid la quudhsado.
You offer polluted bread upon my altar, and you say, “In what way, have we polluted you?” In that you say, “The table of the Lord has been despised.”
8 Rabbiga ciidammadu wuxuu leeyahay, Markaad neef indha la' allabari u bixisaan, sow taasu shar ma aha? Sowse shar ma aha markaad neef curyaan ah iyo neef buka allabari u bixisaan? Haddaba bal taliyahaaga u gee. Miyuu kugu farxi doonaa? Miyuuse ku aqbali doonaa?
If you offer the blind for sacrifice, is this not evil? And if you offer the lame and the sick, is this not evil? Offer it to your leader, if he will be pleased with it, or if he will accept your face, says the Lord of hosts.
9 Haddaba waan idin baryayaaye, Rabbiga barya inuu inoo roonaado aawadeed. Haddaba idinkoo waxaas sameeyey, miyuu midkiinna aqbalayaa? Saasuu Rabbiga ciidammadu leeyahay.
And now, beseech the face of God, so that he may have mercy on you (for by your hand has this been done) if, in any way, he might accept your faces, says the Lord of hosts.
10 Waxaan jeclaan lahaa inuu idinku dhex jiro mid albaabbada xidha, inaydaan meeshayda allabariga dab ugu shidin si aan waxtar lahayn! Rabbiga ciidammadu wuxuu leeyahay, Anigu idinkuma faraxsani, oo gacmihiinnana innaba qurbaan ka aqbali maayo.
Who is there among you that would close the doors and enflame my altar without pay? I have no favor in you, says the Lord of hosts. And I will not accept a gift from your hand.
11 Rabbiga ciidammadu wuxuu leeyahay, Markii qorraxdu soo baxdo iyo markii ay dhacdo inta ka dhexle magacaygu waa ku weyn yahay quruumaha dhexdooda, oo meel kastana waxaa magacayga aawadiis loo bixiyaa foox iyo qurbaan daahir ah, waayo, magacaygu waa ku weyn yahay quruumaha dhexdooda.
For, from the rising of the sun even to its setting, my name is great among the Gentiles, and in every place, a clean oblation is being sacrificed and offered to my name. For my name is great among the Gentiles, says the Lord of hosts.
12 Idinkuse waad nijaasaysaan markaad tidhaahdaan, Miiskii Rabbigu waa nijaasaysan yahay, oo cuntadiisuna waa wax la quudhsado.
And you have polluted it, in that you say, “The table of the Lord has been contaminated; and that which is placed upon it is contemptible, compared with the fire that devours it.”
13 Rabbiga ciidammadu wuxuu leeyahay, Idinku waxaad tidhaahdaan, Bal eega, kanu daal badanaa! Oo weliba waad igu fududaysateen, oo waxaad ii keenteen wax la soo dhacay, iyo neef curyaan ah, iyo mid buka, oo saasaad qurbaan u keentaan. Rabbiga ciidammadu wuxuu leeyahay, Miyaan gacantiinna ka aqbalaa wax sidaas ah?
And you have said, “Behold our labor,” and you have exhaled it away, says the Lord of hosts. And you brought in by plunder the lame, and the sick, and brought it in as a gift. How can I receive this from your hand, says the Lord?
14 Laakiinse inkaaru ha ku dhacdo khaa'inkii adhigiisa neef wanaagsan oo lab ahu ku jiro, oo markuu nidar galo uu Sayidka u allabaryo wax iin leh, waayo, Rabbiga ciidammadu wuxuu leeyahay, Anigu waxaan ahay Boqor weyn, oo magacaygana aad baa looga cabsadaa quruumaha dhexdooda.
Cursed is the deceitful, who holds in his flock a male, and, when making a vow, offers in sacrifice that which is feeble to the Lord. For I am a great King, says the Lord of hosts, and my name is dreadful among the Gentiles.
