Jeremiah 13
1 Thus sayth the Lord vnto mee, Goe, and buy thee a linen girdle, and put it vpon thy loynes, and put it not in water.
Waaqayyo akkana naan jedhe: “Dhaqiitii sabbata quncee talbaa irraa hojjetame bitadhuu mudhii keetti hidhadhu; garuu bishaan hin tuqsiisin.”
2 So I bought the girdle according to the commandement of the Lord, and put it vpon my loynes.
Kanaafuu ani akkuma Waaqayyo na ajajetti sabbata bitadhee mudhii kootti nan hidhadhe.
3 And the worde of the Lord came vnto me the second time, saying,
Ergasii dubbiin Waaqayyoo akkana jedhee yeroo lammaffaa gara koo dhufe:
4 Take the girdle that thou hast bought, which is vpon thy loynes, and arise, goe towarde Perath, and hide it there in the cleft of the rocke.
“Sabbata bitattee mudhiitti hidhatte sana fuudhiitii gara Laga Efraaxiis dhaqi; sabbata sanas baqaqaa kattaa keessa dhoksi.”
5 So I went, and hid it by Perath, as the Lord had commanded me.
Kanaafuu ani akkuma Waaqayyo na ajajetti dhaqee sabbata sana Laga Efraaxiis bira nan dhokse.
6 And after many dayes, the Lord sayde vnto mee, Arise, goe towarde Perath, and take the girdle from thence, which I commanded thee to hide there.
Bultii hedduu booddee Waaqayyo, “Amma gara Efraaxiis dhaqiitii sabbata ani akka ati achitti dhoksitu si ajaje sana fudhadhu” naan jedhe.
7 Then went I to Perath, and digged, and tooke the girdle from the place where I had hid it, and behold, the girdle was corrupt, and was profitable for nothing.
Kanaafuu ani gara Efraaxiis dhaqee sabbata sana iddoon itti dhoksee ture sanaa qotee baasee nan fudhadhe; sabbanni sun garuu yeroo sanatti ciccitee guutumaan guutuutti horoomaa baʼee ture.
8 Then the word of the Lord came vnto me, saying,
Ergasii dubbiin Waaqayyoo akkana jedhee gara koo dhufe;
9 Thus sayth the Lord, After this maner will I destroy the pride of Iudah, and the great pride of Ierusalem.
“Waaqayyo akkana jedha; ‘Ani haaluma wal fakkaatuun of tuulummaa Yihuudaatii fi of tuulummaa Yerusaalem guddaa sana nan balleessa.
10 This wicked people haue refused to heare my word, and walke after ye stubbernesse of their owne heart, and walke after other gods to serue them, and to worship them: therefore they shalbe as this girdle, which is profitable to nothing.
Sabni hamaan dubbii koo dhagaʼuu didee mata jabina garaa isaa duukaa buʼee waaqota biraa tajaajiluu fi waaqeffachuuf isaan faana buʼe kun akkuma sabbata kanaa ni taʼa; guutumaan guutuuttis horoomaa baʼa.
11 For as the girdle cleaueth to the loynes of a man, so haue I tied to me the whole house of Israel, and the whole house of Iudah, saith the Lord, that they might bee my people: that they might haue a name and prayse, and glory, but they would not heare.
Akkuma sabbanni tokko mudhii namaatti hidhamu sana anis akka isaan saba, maqaa, galataa fi ulfina naa taʼaniif guutummaa mana Israaʼelii fi guutummaa mana Yihuudaa ofitti maxxanseen ture. Isaan garuu na hin dhaggeeffanne’ jedha Waaqayyo.
12 Therefore thou shalt saye vnto them this word, Thus sayth the Lord God of Israel, Euery bottell shalbe filled with wine, and they shall say vnto thee, Doe we not knowe that euery bottell shalbe filled with wine?
“Ati akkana isaaniin jedhi: ‘Waaqayyo Waaqni Israaʼel akkana jedha: qalqalloon daadhii wayinii hundi daadhii wayiniitiin guutamuu qaba.’ Yoo isaan, ‘Nu akka qalqalloon daadhii wayinii hundi daadhii wayiniitiin guutamuu qabu hin beeknuu?’ siin jedhan,
13 Then shalt thou say vnto them, Thus saith the Lord, Behold, I will fill all the inhabitants of this land, euen the Kings that sit vpon the throne of Dauid, and the Priestes and the Prophets and all the inhabitantes of Ierusalem with drunkennesse.
ati akkana jedhiin; ‘Waaqayyo akkana jedha: Ani namoota biyya kana keessa jiraatan hunda, mootota teessoo Daawit irra taaʼan, luboota, raajotaa fi warra Yerusaalem keessa jiraatan hunda machiidhaan nan guuta.
14 And I wil dash them one against another, euen the fathers and the sonnes together, sayeth the Lord: I will not spare, I will not pitie nor haue compassion, but destroy them.
Ani tokkoo tokkoo isaanii walittin buusa; abbootii fi ilmaanis akkasuma walitti nan buusa, jedha Waaqayyo. Ani isaan nan balleessa malee isaaniif hin naʼu yookaan isaaniif hin araaramu yookaan garaa hin laafuuf.’”
15 Heare and giue eare, be not proude: for the Lord hath spoken it.
Dhagaʼaa; qalbeeffadhaas; of hin tuulinaa; Waaqayyo dubbateeraatii.
16 Giue glory to the Lord your God before he bring darknes, and or euer your feete stumble in the darke mountaines, and whiles you look for light, he turne it into the shadowe of death and make it as darkenesse.
Utuu inni dukkana hin fidin, utuu miilli keessan tulluu dukkanaaʼaa jiru irratti hin gufatin Waaqayyo Waaqa keessaniif ulfina kennaa. Isin ifa abdattu; inni garuu ifa sana dimimmisatti deebisee dukkana duudaatti geeddara.
17 But if ye will not heare this, my soule shall weepe in secrete for your pride, and mine eye shall weepe and drop downe teares, because the Lords flocke is caried away captiue.
Yoo isin dhagaʼuu baattan garuu, sababii of tuulummaa keessaniitiif lubbuun koo dhoksaatti ni boossi; sababii bushaayeen Waaqayyoo boojuun fuudhamaniif iji koo akka malee boossee imimmaan ishee keessaa ni rooba.
18 Say vnto the King and to the Queene, Humble yourselues, sit downe, for the crowne of your glory shall come downe from your heads.
Mootichaa fi haadha mootichaatiin, “Teessoo keessan irraa buʼaa; gonfoon keessan ulfina qabeessi sun mataa keessan irraa ni buʼaatii” jedhi.
19 The cities of the South shall be shut vp, and no man shall open them: all Iudah shall be caried away captiue: it shall be wholy caried away captiue.
Magaalaawwan Negeeb ni cufamu; namni isaan banu tokko iyyuu hin jiru. Yihuudaan hundi ni boojiʼamti; guutumaan guutuuttis biyyaa fudhatamti.
20 Lift vp your eyes and beholde them that come from the North: where is the flocke that was giuen thee, euen thy beautifull flocke?
Ija keessan ol fudhadhaatii warra gama kaabaatii dhufaa jiran ilaalaa. Bushaayeen imaanaa sitti kennaman, hoolonni ati ittiin boonte sun eessa jiru?
21 What wilt thou saye, when hee shall visite thee? (for thou hast taught them to be captaines and as chiefe ouer thee) shall not sorow take thee as a woman in trauaile?
Yommuu Waaqayyo warra ati akka isaan michoota siif taʼaniif leenjifte sana sirratti muudutti ati maal jetta? Akkuma dubartii ciniinsifattu tokkoo dhiphinni si hin qabuu?
22 And if thou say in thine heart, Wherefore come these things vpon me? For the multitude of thine iniquities are thy skirts discouered and thy heeles made bare.
Yoo ati, “Wanni kun maaliif natti dhufe?” jettee of gaafatte wanni wandaboon kee sirraa mulqamee dhagni kee salphifameef sababii cubbuu kee baayʼee sanaatiif.
23 Can the blacke More change his skin? or the leopard his spots? then may ye also do good, that are accustomed to do euill.
Namni Itoophiyaa tokko bifa isaa yookaan qeerransi buburrina isaa geeddaruu ni dandaʼaa? Isin warri hammina hojjechuu barattanis waan gaarii hojjechuu hin dandeessan.
24 Therefore will I scatter them, as the stubble that is taken away with the South winde.
“Akkuma bubbeen gammoojjii habaqii bittinneessu sana anis isin nan bittinneessa.
25 This is thy portion, and ye part of thy measures from me, sayth the Lord, because thou hast forgotten me and trusted in lyes.
Sababii ati na irraanfattee waaqota sobaa amanatteef, kun ixaa kee, qooda ani siif safaree dha” jedha Waaqayyo.
26 Therefore I haue also discouered thy skirts vpon thy face, that thy shame may appeare.
“Akka qaaniin kee mulʼatuuf ani wandaboo kee fuula keetti ol nan soqola.
27 I haue seene thine adulteries, and thy neiings, the filthinesse of thy whoredome on the hils in the fieldes, and thine abominations. Wo vnto thee, O Ierusalem: wilt thou not bee made cleane? when shall it once be?
Ejjummaa fi himimsuun kee, sagaagalummaan kee kan qaanii hin qabne sunis ni mulʼata! Ani hojii kee jibbisiisaa sana gaarran irraa fi bakkee keessatti argeera. Yaa Yerusaalem, siif wayyoo! Ati hamma yoomiitti xurooftee hafta?”
