Isaiah 42
1 "Look, my servant I have chosen, my beloved in whom my soul delights. I have put my Spirit on him, and he will bring justice to the nations.
“Tajaajilaan koo inni ani utubee dhaabu, filatamaan koo kan ani itti gammadu isa kana; ani Hafuura koo isa irra nan kaaʼa; inni sabootaaf murtii qajeelaa ni kenna.
2 He will not shout, nor raise his voice, nor cause it to be heard in the street.
Inni hin wacu yookaan hin iyyu; yookaan daandii irratti sagalee isaa hin dhageessisu.
3 He won't break a bruised reed. And he won't extinguish a dimly burning wick. He will faithfully bring justice.
Shambaqqoo buruqe hin cabsu; foʼaa ibsaa kan seequs hin dhaamsu. Inni amanamummaadhaan murtii qajeelaa ni fida;
4 He will not grow dim or be crushed, until he has established justice on the earth, and in his name the coastlands will hope."
hamma murtii qajeelaa lafa irratti fidutti, inni hin dadhabu; abdiis hin kutatu. Biyyoonni bishaan gidduu seera isaa ni abdatu.”
5 Thus says God, Jehovah, he who created the heavens and stretched them out, he who spread out the earth and that which comes out of it, he who gives breath to its people and spirit to those who walk in it.
Waaqayyo Waaqni samiiwwan uumee diriirse, inni lafaa fi wantoota ishee keessa jiran hunda hojjete, inni saba isheetiif hafuura baafatan kennee warra ishee irra jiraataniifis jireenya kenne sun akkana jedha:
6 "I, Jehovah, have called you in righteousness, and will hold your hand, and will keep you, and make you a covenant for the people, as a light for the nations;
“Ani Waaqayyo qajeelummaadhaan si waameera; harka kees nan qaba. Ani si eegee sabootaaf kakuu, Namoota Ormaatiif immoo ifa sin taasisa;
7 to open the blind eyes, to bring the prisoners out of the dungeon, and those who sit in darkness out of the prison.
atis ija jaamotaa ni banta; mana hidhaatii boojiʼamtoota ni hiikta; warra dukkana keessa jiraatanis hidhaadhaa ni baafta.
8 "I am Jehovah. That is my name. I will not give my glory to another, nor my praise to engraved images.
“Ani Waaqayyo; maqaan koos kanaa dha! Ani ulfina koo kan biraatiif, galata koos waaqota tolfamoof dabarsee hin kennu.
9 Look, the former things have happened, and I declare new things. I tell you about them before they come up."
Kunoo wanni duraanii raawwatameera; anis waan haaraa nan dubbadha; utuu isaan hin biqilin, ani waaʼee isaanii sitti nan odeessa.”
10 Sing to Jehovah a new song, and his praise from the remotest parts of the earth, you who go down to the sea, and all that is in it, the islands and their inhabitants.
Isin warri galaana buutanii fi wantoonni achi keessa jiraattan hundi, biyyoonni bishaan gidduu fi warri achi keessa jiraattan hundi, faarfannaa haaraa Waaqayyoof faarfadhaa; handaara lafaatiis galata isaa faarfadhaa.
11 Let the desert and its cities cry out, with the villages that Kedar inhabits. Let the inhabitants of Sela sing. Let them shout from the top of the mountains.
Gammoojjii fi magaalaawwan ishee sagalee isaanii ol haa fudhatan; gandoonni Qeedaar keessa jiraatan haa gammadan. Namoonni Seelaa gammachuudhaan haa faarfatan; fiixee tulluuwwanii irraa haa iyyan.
12 Let them give glory to Jehovah, and declare his praise in the islands.
Isaan Waaqayyoof ulfina haa kennan; biyyoota bishaan gidduu keessattis galata isaa haa labsan.
13 Jehovah will go out like a mighty man. He will stir up zeal like a man of war. He will raise a war cry. Yes, he will shout aloud. He will triumph over his enemies.
Waaqayyo akka nama jabaa tokkootti ni duula; akka goota tokkoottis onnee isaa kakaasa; sagalee ol fudhatees ni dhaadata; diinota isaa irrattis ol aantummaa argata.
14 "I have been silent a long time. I have been quiet and restrained myself. Now I will cry out like a travailing woman. I will both gasp and pant.
“Ani yeroo dheeraaf calʼiseera; ani afaan qabadhee of dhowweera. Amma garuu akka dubartii ciniinsuun qabeetti nan iyya; nan argana; hafuurris na cita.
15 I will destroy mountains and hills, and dry up all their herbs. I will make the rivers islands, and will dry up the pools.
Ani tulluuwwanii fi gaarran nan onsa; biqiltuuwwan isaanii hundas nan gogsa; ani lageen biyyoota bishaan gidduutti nan geeddara; haroowwanis nan gogsa.
16 I will bring the blind by a way that they do not know. I will lead them in paths that they do not know. I will make darkness light before them, and crooked places straight. I will do these things, and I will not forsake them.
Ani jaamota karaa isaan hin beekne irra nan qajeelcha; daandii duraan hin beekamin irra nan deemsisa; ani dukkana fuula isaanii dura jiru ifatti nan geeddara; lafa buʼaa bayiis wal nan qixxeessa. Wanni ani hojjedhu kanneenii dha; ani isaan hin dhiisu.
17 "Those who trust in engraved images, who tell molten images, 'You are our gods' will be turned back. They will be utterly disappointed.
Warri waaqota tolfamoo amanatan, kanneen fakkiiwwaniin, ‘Isin waaqota keenya’ jedhan garuu duubatti deebiʼu; ni salphatus.
18 "Hear, you deaf, and look, you blind, that you may see.
“Isin duudota nana, dhagaʼaa; jaamota nana, ilaalaa; argaas!
19 Who is blind, but my servant? Or who is as deaf as my messenger whom I send? Who is as blind as he who is at peace, and as blind as Jehovah's servant?
Tajaajilaa koo malee jaamaan eenyu? Duudaan akka ergamaa ani ergu sanaas eenyu? Jaamaan akka nama anaaf of kennee, jaamaan akka Garbicha Waaqayyoo eenyu?
20 You see many things, but do not observe. His ears are open, but he doesn't listen.
Ati waan baayʼee argite; garuu hin qalbeeffanne; gurri kee banaa dha; garuu ati waan tokko iyyuu hin dhageessu.”
21 It pleased Jehovah, for his righteousness' sake, to magnify the law, and make it honorable.
Waaʼee qajeelummaa isaatiif jedhee seera isaa guddisuu fi ulfina qabeessa gochuun Waaqayyoon gammachiiseera.
22 But this is a robbed and plundered people. All of them are snared in holes, and they are hidden in prisons. They have become a prey, and no one delivers; and a spoil, and no one says, 'Restore them.'
Sabni kun garuu saba saamamee boojiʼamee dha; hundii isaanii boolla keessatti kiyyoodhaan qabamaniiru; mana hidhaa keessas dhokfamaniiru. Isaan fudhatamaniiru; kan isaan baraarus hin jiru; isaan boojiʼamaniiru; namni, “Isaan deebisaa” jedhus hin jiru.
23 Who is there among you who will give ear to this? Who will listen and hear for the time to come?
Isin keessaa eenyutu waan kana dhaggeeffata? Bara dhufuuf jiru keessas eenyutu qalbeeffatee dhagaʼa?
24 Who gave Jacob as plunder, and Israel to the robbers? Did not Jehovah, he against whom we have sinned? For they would not walk in his ways, and they disobeyed his law.
Eenyutu Yaaqoobin boojuuf, Israaʼelinis saamtotatti dabarsee kenne? Kan nu cubbuu itti hojjenne, Waaqayyo mitii? Isaan sababii karaa isaa duukaa hin buuneef, seera isaatiif hin ajajamne.
25 Therefore he poured the fierceness of his anger on him, and the strength of battle; and it set him on fire all around, but he did not know; and it burned him, but he did not take it to heart."
Kanaafuu inni dheekkamsa isaa bobaʼaa sana, waraana hamaas isaanitti erge. Arraba ibiddaatiin isaan marse; isaan garuu hin hubanne; ibiddi sunis isaan gube; isaan garuu hin qalbeeffanne.
