Malaakii 2
1 Haddaba, wadaaddadow, amarkan idinkaa laydiin soo diray.
And now, O ye priests, this commandment is for you.
2 Oo Rabbiga ciidammadu wuxuu leeyahay, Haddii aydaan dhegaysan, oo aydaan qalbigiinna gelin si aad magacayga u ammaantaan aawadeed, markaas waxaan idinku soo dejin doonaa inkaartii, oo barakooyinkiinnana waan inkaari doonaa, oo mar horaan inkaaray, maxaa yeelay, qalbigiinna ma aad gelisaan.
If ye will not hear, and if ye will not lay it to heart, to give glory unto my name, saith Yhwh of Armies, I will even send a curse upon you, and I will curse your blessings: yea, I have cursed them already, because ye do not lay it to heart.
3 Bal eega, farcankiinnaan canaanan doonaa, oo wejigiinnana waxaan ku firdhin doonaa uus, kaasoo ah uuska allabaryadiinna, oo waa laydinla qaadi doonaa.
Behold, I will corrupt your seed, and spread dung upon your faces, even the dung of your solemn feasts; and one shall take you away with it.
4 Rabbiga ciidammadu wuxuu leeyahay, Waxaad ogaan doontaan inaan anigu amarkan idiin soo diray, si uu axdigaygu reer Laawi ula sii jiro.
And ye shall know that I have sent this commandment unto you, that my covenant might be with Levi, saith Yhwh of Armies.
5 Axdigaygii aan iyaga la dhigtay wuxuu ahaa mid nolol iyo nabaadiino ah, oo waxaan u siiyey inay iga cabsadaan, wayna iga cabsadeen, oo magacaygana way ka cabsadeen.
My covenant was with him of life and peace; and I gave them to him for the fear wherewith he feared me, and was afraid before my name.
6 Sharcigii runtu afkooduu ku jiray, oo bushimihoodana xaqdarro lagama helin. Way igula socdeen nabaadiino iyo qummanaan, qaar badanna xumaan bay ka leexiyeen.
The law of truth was in his mouth, and iniquity was not found in his lips: he walked with me in peace and equity, and did turn many away from iniquity.
7 Waayo, bushimaha wadaadka waxaa waajib ku ah inay aqoonta dhawraan, oo waxaa ku habboon in sharciga afkiisa laga doono, waayo, isagu waa wargeeyihii Rabbiga ciidammada.
For the priest’s lips should keep knowledge, and they should seek the law at his mouth: for he is the messenger of Yhwh of Armies.
8 Laakiinse idinku jidkii baad ka baydheen, oo dad badan baad sharciga ku kufiseen, oo axdigii reer Laawina waad kharribteen, ayaa Rabbiga ciidammadu leeyahay.
But ye are departed out of the way; ye have caused many to stumble at the law; ye have corrupted the covenant of Levi, saith Yhwh of Armies.
9 Haddaba sidaas daraaddeed waxaan dadka oo dhan hortiisa idinkaga dhigay wax la quudhsado oo hooseeya, maxaa yeelay, jidadkayga ma aydaan dhawrin, laakiinse dadka baad ugu kala eexateen sharciga.
Therefore have I also made you contemptible and base before all the people, according as ye have not kept my ways, but have been partial in the law.
10 Miyaynan kulligeen isku aabbe ahayn? Sow isku Ilaah inama uumin? Bal maxaa ninkeen kastaaba walaalkiis u khiyaaneeyaa, innagoo nijaasaynayna axdigii awowayaasheen?
Have we not all one father? hath not one God created us? why do we deal treacherously every man against his brother, by profaning the covenant of our fathers?
11 Dadka dalka Yahuudah khiyaano bay ku macaamiloodeen, oo dalka Israa'iil iyo Yeruusaalemna waxaa lagu sameeyey wax karaahiyo ah, waayo, dadka dalka Yahuudah waxay nijaaseeyeen meeshii quduuska ahayd ee Rabbiga oo uu jecelyahay, oo waxay guursadeen gabdho ilaahoodu qalaad yahay.
Judah hath dealt treacherously, and an abomination is committed in Israel and in Jerusalem; for Judah hath profaned the holiness of Yhwh which he loved, and hath married the daughter of a strange god.
12 Rabbigu wuxuu teendhooyinka reer Yacquub uga baabbi'in doonaa ninkii waxan sameeya, kan toosa iyo kan ka jawaaba, iyo weliba kan qurbaan u bixiya Rabbiga ciidammadaba.
Yhwh will cut off the man that doeth this, the master and the scholar, out of the tabernacles of Jacob, and him that offereth an offering unto Yhwh of Armies.
13 Oo weliba waxaa kaloo aad samaysaan tan: Meesha allabariga ee Rabbiga ayaad ku dul badisaan ilmo, iyo oohin, iyo taahid, sababtuna waa qurbaanka uusan innaba mar dambe dan ka lahayn, oo uusan raalli ka ahayn inuu gacantiinna ka aqbalo.
And this have ye done again, covering the altar of Yhwh with tears, with weeping, and with crying out, insomuch that he regardeth not the offering any more, or receiveth it with good will at your hand.
14 Oo idinku waxaad tidhaahdaan, Waa maxay sababtu? Maxaa yeelay, Rabbigu wuxuu ahaa markhaati u dhexeeya midkiin kasta iyo naagtii dhallinyaranimadiisa oo uu khiyaano kula macaamilooday in kastoo ay tahay weheshiisii iyo naagtii uu axdiga la dhigtay.
Yet ye say, Wherefore? because Yhwh hath been witness between thee and the wife of thy youth, against whom thou hast dealt treacherously: yet is she thy companion, and the wife of thy covenant.
15 Oo miyuusan mid ka dhigin in kastoo uu lahaa waxa ruuxa ka hadhay? Oo muxuu mid uga dhigay? Isagu wuxuu doonayay farcan Ilaah caabuda. Sidaas daraaddeed iska jira, oo midkiinna yuusan khiyaano kula macaamiloon naagtii uu dhallinyaraanta ku guursaday.
And did not he make one? Yet had he the residue of the spirit. And wherefore one? That he might seek a godly seed. Therefore take heed to your spirit, and let none deal treacherously against the wife of his youth.
16 Waayo, Rabbiga ah Ilaaha reer binu Israa'iil wuxuu leeyahay, Anigu waan necbahay furidda, oo Rabbiga ciidammadu wuxuu leeyahay, Anigu waan necbahay kii dharkiisa dulmi ku deda, haddaba sidaas daraaddeed iska jira oo khiyaano ha ku macaamiloonina.
For Yhwh, the God of Israel, saith that he hateth putting away: for one covereth violence with his garment, saith Yhwh of Armies: therefore take heed to your spirit, that ye deal not treacherously.
17 Waxaad Rabbiga ku daaliseen erayadiinna, oo weliba waxaad tidhaahdaan, War sidee baannu isaga u daalinnay? Waad daalisaan markaad tidhaahdaan, Ku alla kii shar falaaba waa ku wanaagsan yahay Rabbiga hortiisa, oo isagu wuu ku farxaa. Amase markaad tidhaahdaan, Meeh Ilaahii caddaaladdu?
Ye have wearied Yhwh with your words. Yet ye say, Wherein have we wearied him? When ye say, Every one that doeth evil is good in the sight of Yhwh, and he delighteth in them; or, Where is the God of judgment?
