Isaiah 64
1 Oh that you would tear the heavens, that you would come down, that the mountains might quake at your presence—
Akka tulluuwwan fuula kee duratti raafamaniif, maaloo ati utuu samiiwwan tarsaaftee gad buutee!
2 as when fire kindles the brushwood, and the fire causes the water to boil. Make your name known to your adversaries, that the nations may tremble at your presence!
Akkuma ibiddi hanxaxii gubee, bishaan danfisu sana, akka maqaan kee diinota kee biratti beekamuuf gad buʼiitii akka saboonni fuula kee duratti hollatan godhi!
3 When you did awesome things which we didn’t look for, you came down, and the mountains quaked at your presence.
Ati yeroo waan sodaachisaa nu hin yaadin hojjettetti gad buute; tulluuwwanis fuula kee duratti hollatan.
4 For from of old men have not heard, nor perceived by the ear, nor has the eye seen a God besides you, who works for him who waits for him.
Si malee Waaqa warra isa abdataniif dhaabatu, bara duriitii jalqabee namni tokko iyyuu hin dhageenye; yookaan gurri tokko iyyuu hin qalbeeffanne; iji tokko iyyuu hin argine.
5 You meet him who rejoices and does righteousness, those who remember you in your ways. Behold, you were angry, and we sinned. We have been in sin for a long time. Shall we be saved?
Ati warra gammachuudhaan waan tolaa hojjetan kanneen karaa kee yaadatan gargaaruuf ni dhufta. Garuu yommuu nu ittuma fufnee cubbuu hojjennetti ati ni dheekkamte. Yoos nu akkamitti fayyuu dandeenya ree?
6 For we have all become like one who is unclean, and all our righteousness is like a polluted garment. We all fade like a leaf; and our iniquities, like the wind, take us away.
Hundi keenya akka nama qulqullina hin qabnee taaneerra; hojiin qajeelummaa keenyaa hundis akka huccuu xuraaʼummaa ti; hundi keenya akkuma baalaa coollagne; cubbuun keenyas akkuma bubbee haxaaʼee nu fudhate.
7 There is no one who calls on your name, who stirs himself up to take hold of you; for you have hidden your face from us, and have consumed us by means of our iniquities.
Namni maqaa kee waammatu tokko iyyuu hin jiru; yookaan namni si qabachuuf carraaqu hin jiru; ati fuula kee nu dhokfattee sababii cubbuu keenyaatiifis nu fixxeertaatii.
8 But now, Yahweh, you are our Father. We are the clay and you our potter. We all are the work of your hand.
Taʼus yaa Waaqayyo, ati Abbaa keenya. Nu suphee dha; ati immoo dhooftuu suphee ti; hundi keenya hojii harka keetii ti.
9 Don’t be furious, Yahweh. Don’t remember iniquity forever. Look and see, we beg you, we are all your people.
Yaa Waaqayyo, ati akka malee hin dheekkamin; cubbuu keenyas bara baraan hin yaadatin. Maaloo si kadhannaa, fuula kee nuuf deebisi; nu hundinuu saba keetii.
10 Your holy cities have become a wilderness. Zion has become a wilderness, Jerusalem a desolation.
Magaalaawwan kee qulqulloonni onaniiru; Xiyoon iyyuu onteerti; Yerusaalemis duwwaa hafteerti.
11 Our holy and our beautiful house where our fathers praised you is burned with fire. All our pleasant places are laid waste.
Manni qulqullummaa keenya qulqullichii fi ulfina qabeessi, iddoon abbootiin keenya itti si galateeffatan sun ibiddaan gubameera; wanni nu itti gammannu hundis barbadeeffameera.
12 Will you hold yourself back for these things, Yahweh? Will you keep silent and punish us very severely?
Yaa Waaqayyo, ati wantoota kanneen hunda calʼuma jettee ilaaltaa? Ati calʼistee akka malee nu adabdaa?
