Ezekiel 15

1 And thee word of the Lord came vnto me, saying,

Ergasii dubbiin Waaqayyoo akkana jedhee gara koo dhufe:

2 Sonne of man, what commeth of the vine tree aboue all other trees? and of the vine braunch, which is among the trees of ye forest?

“Yaa ilma namaa, mukni wayinii akkamitti damee muka bosona keessa jiru kamii iyyuu caala?

3 Shall wood bee taken thereof to doe any worke? or wil men take a pin of it to hang any vessel thereon?

Waan faayidaa qabu tolfachuuf muka wayinii sana irraa takkumaa mukni fudhatamee beekaa? Waa isatti fannifachuuf namoonni isa irratti fannoo ni hojjetuu?

4 Behold, it is cast in the fire to be consumed: the fire consumeth both the endes of it, and the middes of it is burnt. Is it meete for any worke?

Inni erga akkuma qoraan ibiddatti naqamee ibiddi sun fiixee isaa lamaan gubee gidduu xaphi godhee booddee waan tokkoof iyyuu faayidaa qabaa?

5 Behold, when it was whole, it was meete for no worke: how much lesse shall it bee meete for any worke, when the fire hath consumed it, and it is burnt?

Inni utuu hin tuqamin faayidaa yoo hin qabaatin, erga ibiddaan gubamee xaphi jedhee immoo hammam faayidaa gad aanaa haa qabaatuu ree?

6 Therefore thus sayth the Lord God, As the vine tree, that is among the trees of the forest, which I haue giuen to the fire to be consumed, so will I giue the inhabitants of Ierusalem.

“Kanaafuu Waaqayyo Gooftaan akkana jedha: Ani akkuma muka wayinii mukkeen bosonaa gidduu jiru akka inni bobaʼuuf ibiddatti naqe sana, uummata Yerusaalem keessa jiraatu illee akkasuma nan godha.

7 And I will set my face against them: they shall go out from one fire, and another fire shall consume them: and ye shall know, that I am the Lord, when I set my face against them,

Ani hamminaan fuula koo isaanitti nan deebisa. Isaan ibidda keessaa baʼan iyyuu, ibiddi amma iyyuu isaan ni balleessa. Yeroo ani hamminaan fuula koo isaanitti deebifadhutti, isin akka ani Waaqayyo taʼe ni beektu.

8 And when I make the lande waste, because they haue greatly offended, saith the Lord God.

Sababii isaan amanamuu didaniif ani biyyattii nan onsa, jedha Waaqayyo Gooftaan.”
