< Ermiyaas 20 >

1 Phaashihuur lubichi, ilmi Imeerii inni mana qulqullummaa Waaqayyoo keessatti bulchaa hangafa ture sun yommuu Ermiyaasii waan kana raaju dhagaʼetti,
Now Pashhur, the son of Immer the priest, who was chief officer in the LORD’s house, heard Jeremiah prophesying these things.
2 akka Ermiyaas raajichi tumamee Karra Beniyaam isa ol aanu kan mana Waaqayyoo biratti argamu sana keessatti miilli isaa jirma lama gidduu galee hidhamu godhe.
Then Pashhur struck Jeremiah the prophet and put him in the stocks that were in the upper gate of Benjamin, which was in the LORD’s house.
3 Ermiyaasis guyyaa itti aanu yeroo Phaashihuur jirma lamaan gidduudhaa isa baasetti akkana jedheen; “Maqaan Waaqayyo siif baase Maagormiisaabiib malee Phaashihuur miti.
On the next day, Pashhur released Jeremiah out of the stocks. Then Jeremiah said to him, “The LORD has not called your name Pashhur, but Magormissabib.
4 Waaqayyo akkana jedhaatii; ‘Ani akka ati ofii keetii fi michoota keetti sodaachisaa taatu sin godha; yeroo isaan goraadee diinota isaaniitiin dhuman ijuma keetiin argita. Ani Yihuudaa hunda dabarsee mootii Baabiloniitti nan kenna; innis Baabilonitti isaan geessa yookaan goraadeedhaan isaan fixa.
For the LORD says, ‘Behold, I will make you a terror to yourself and to all your friends. They will fall by the sword of their enemies, and your eyes will see it. I will give all Judah into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he will carry them captive to Babylon, and will kill them with the sword.
5 Ani qabeenya magaalaa kanaa hunda jechuunis oomisha ishee hunda, waan gatii guddaa qabu hundaa fi badhaadhummaa mootota Yihuudaa hunda dabarsee diinota isaaniitti nan kenna. Isaanis boojiʼanii fudhatanii Baabilonitti isaan geessan.
Moreover I will give all the riches of this city, and all its gains, and all its precious things, yes, I will give all the treasures of the kings of Judah into the hand of their enemies. They will make them captives, take them, and carry them to Babylon.
6 Yaa Phaashihuur ati, warri mana kee jiraatan hundis boojiʼamtanii Baabilonitti geeffamtu. Atii fi michoota kee warri ati raajii sobaa dubbatteef hundi achitti duutanii awwaalamtu.’”
You, Pashhur, and all who dwell in your house will go into captivity. You will come to Babylon, and there you will die, and there you will be buried, you, and all your friends, to whom you have prophesied falsely.’”
7 Yaa Waaqayyo, ati na gowwoomsite; anis nan gowwoomfame; ati humnaan na caaltee na moʼatte. Ani guyyaa guutuu waan kolfaa nan taʼe; namni hundis natti qoosa.
LORD, you have persuaded me, and I was persuaded. You are stronger than I, and have prevailed. I have become a laughingstock all day. Everyone mocks me.
8 Ani yeroon dubbadhu hunda nan iyya; “Goolii, badiisa” jedhees nan labsa. Kanaafuu dubbiin Waaqayyo guyyaa guutuu arrabsoo fi tuffii natti fide.
For as often as I speak, I cry out; I cry, “Violence and destruction!” because the LORD’s word has been made a reproach to me, and a derision, all day.
9 Garuu yoo ani, “Ani maqaa isaa hin dhaʼu yookaan siʼachi maqaa isaatiin hin dubbadhu” jedhe, dubbiin isaa onnee koo keessatti akka ibiddaa, akkuma ibidda lafee koo keessatti ukkaamsameera. Ani of keessatti isa qabachuu nan dadhabe; dhuguma iyyuu ani hin dandaʼu.
If I say that I will not make mention of him, or speak any more in his name, then there is in my heart as it were a burning fire shut up in my bones. I am weary with holding it in. I can’t.
10 Ani hasaasa, “Karaa hundaan sodaa! Isa balaaleffadhaa! Isa haa balaaleffannu!” jedhu hedduu nan dhagaʼa. Michoonni koo hundi, “Inni ni gowwoomfama taʼa; nus ergasii isa ni moʼanna; haaloo keenya illee ni baafanna” jechaa kufaatii koo eeggatu.
For I have heard the defaming of many: “Terror on every side! Denounce, and we will denounce him!” say all my familiar friends, those who watch for my fall. “Perhaps he will be persuaded, and we will prevail against him, and we will take our revenge on him.”
11 Waaqayyo garuu akkuma goota humna qabeessa tokkootti na wajjin jira; kanaafuu warri na adamsan ni gufatu malee hin moʼatan. Isaan baayʼee qaaneffaman; hin milkaaʼaniitii; salphinni isaanii gonkumaa hin irraanfatamu.
But the LORD is with me as an awesome mighty one. Therefore my persecutors will stumble, and they won’t prevail. They will be utterly disappointed because they have not dealt wisely, even with an everlasting dishonor which will never be forgotten.
12 Yaa Waaqayyoo Waan Hunda Dandeessu, kan nama qajeelaa qortu, kan garaa fi yaada namaa keessa argitu, ani falmii koo sitti kennadheeraatii ati yeroo isaanitti haaloo baatu na argisiisi.
But the LORD of Hosts, who tests the righteous, who sees the heart and the mind, let me see your vengeance on them, for I have revealed my cause to you.
13 Waaqayyoof faarfadhaa! Waaqayyoon galateeffadhaa! Inni lubbuu namoota hiyyeeyyii harka hamootaatii ni baasa.
Sing to the LORD! Praise the LORD, for he has delivered the soul of the needy from the hand of evildoers.
14 Guyyaan ani dhaladhe haa abaaramu! Guyyaan haati koo na deesse sunis hin eebbifamin!
Cursed is the day in which I was born. Don’t let the day in which my mother bore me be blessed.
15 Namichi, “Daaʼimni tokko jechuunis ilmi siif dhalatee jira!” jedhee abbaa kootiif oduu fidee akka malee isa gammachiise sun haa abaaramu!
Cursed is the man who brought news to my father, saying, “A boy is born to you,” making him very glad.
16 Namichi sun akkuma magaalaawwan Waaqayyo gara laafina malee garagalchee haa taʼu. Inni ganamaan wawwaannaa, saafaan immoo iyya waraanaa haa dhagaʼu.
Let that man be as the cities which the LORD overthrew, and didn’t repent. Let him hear a cry in the morning, and shouting at noontime,
17 Akka haati koo awwaala naa taatuuf, akka gadameessi ishees iddoo jireenya bara baraa naaf taʼuuf inni utuu ani gadameessa keessaa hin baʼin na hin ajjeefneetii.
because he didn’t kill me from the womb. So my mother would have been my grave, and her womb always great.
18 Ani maaliifan rakkinaa fi gadda arguuf jireenya koos qaaniin fixuuf gadameessa keessaa baʼe?
Why did I come out of the womb to see labor and sorrow, that my days should be consumed with shame?
