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 Jehovah to Israel by 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, saith Jehovah; but ye say, Wherein hast thou loved us? Was not Esau Jacob's brother? saith Jehovah, and I loved Jacob,
3 Ceesawse waan necbaaday, oo buurihiisiina cidla baan ka dhigay, oo dhaxalkiisiina waxaan siiyey dawacooyinka cidlada.
and I hated Esau; and made his mountains a desolation, and [gave] his inheritance to the jackals of the wilderness.
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.
If Edom say, We are broken down, but we will build again the ruined places, — thus saith Jehovah of hosts: They shall build, but I will throw down; and [men] shall call them the territory of wickedness, and the people against whom Jehovah hath indignation for ever.
5 Oo indhihiinnuna way arki doonaan, oo idinku waxaad odhan doontaan, Rabbigu ha laga weyneeyo soohdinta dalka Israa'iil shishadeeda.
And your eyes shall see [it], and ye shall say, Jehovah is magnified beyond the border 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?
A son honoureth [his] father, and a servant his master: if then I be a father, where is mine honour? and if I be a master, where is my fear? saith Jehovah of hosts unto you, priests, that despise my name. But ye say, Wherein have we despised thy 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.
Ye offer polluted bread upon mine altar; and ye say, Wherein have we polluted thee? In that ye say, The table of Jehovah is contemptible.
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?
And if ye offer the blind for sacrifice, is it not evil? And if ye offer the lame and sick, is it not evil? Present it now unto thy governor: will he be pleased with thee? or will he accept thy person? saith Jehovah 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, I pray you, beseech God that he will be gracious unto us. This hath been of your hand: will he accept any of your persons? saith Jehovah 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 even shut the doors? and ye would not kindle [fire] on mine altar for nothing. I have no delight in you, saith Jehovah of hosts, neither will I accept an oblation at 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 unto its setting my name shall be great among the nations; and in every place incense shall be offered unto my name, and a pure oblation: for my name shall be great among the nations, saith Jehovah of hosts.
12 Idinkuse waad nijaasaysaan markaad tidhaahdaan, Miiskii Rabbigu waa nijaasaysan yahay, oo cuntadiisuna waa wax la quudhsado.
But ye profane it, in that ye say, The table of the Lord is polluted; and the fruit thereof, his food, is contemptible.
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 ye say, Behold, what a weariness! And ye have puffed at it, saith Jehovah of hosts, and ye bring [that which was] torn, and the lame, and the sick; thus ye bring the oblation: should I accept this of your hand? saith Jehovah.
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.
Yea, cursed be the deceiver, who hath in his flock a male, and voweth and sacrificeth unto the Lord a corrupt thing; for I am a great King, saith Jehovah of hosts, and my name is terrible among the nations.
