Isaayyaas 14
1 Waaqayyo Yaaqoobiif garaa ni laafa; inni amma illee Israaʼelin filatee biyya isaanii keessa isaan qubachiisa. Ormoonni isaanitti dabalamu; mana Yaaqoob wajjinis tokko taʼu.
Her time is drawing near, and her days will not be prolonged. For the Lord will take pity on Jacob, and he will still choose from Israel, and he will cause them to rest upon their own soil. And the new arrival will be joined to them, and he will adhere to the house of Jacob.
2 Saboonni isaan fudhatu; iddoo ofii isaaniitti isaan deebisu. Manni Israaʼel immoo akkuma hojjettoota dhiiraa fi dubartiitti lafa Waaqayyoo keessatti dhaala godhanii isaan fudhatu. Isaan boojitoota isaanii boojiʼanii warra isaan hacuucanis bulchu.
And the people will take them, and lead them to their place. And the house of Israel will possess them, in the land of the Lord, as men and women servants. And they will take captive those who had taken them captive. And they will subjugate their oppressors.
3 Guyyaa Waaqayyo itti dhiphina, rakkinaa fi hojii hamaa isin itti garboomfamtanii turtan sana jalaa isin boqochiisutti,
And this shall be in that day: when God will have given you rest from your labor, and from your oppression, and from the difficult servitude under which you served before,
4 akkana jettee mootii Baabilonitti ni qoosta: Cunqursichi akkamitti bade! Aariin isaas akkamitti isa irraa gale!
you will accept this parable against the king of Babylon, and you will say: “How is it that the oppressor has ceased, along with his tribute?
5 Waaqayyo ulee hamootaatii fi bokkuu bulchitootaa,
The Lord has crushed the staff of the impious, the scepter of despots,
6 kan dheekkamsa wal irraa hin cinneetiin uummata rukute; kan gara laafina tokko malee ariʼee saboota dhaʼe sana caccabseera.
which struck the people in wrath with an incurable wound, which subjugated the nations in fury, which persecuted with cruelty.
7 Lafti hundi boqonnaa fi nagaa argatti; faarfachuuttis kaati.
All the earth has become quiet and still; it has been gladdened and has rejoiced.
8 Gaattiraawwanii fi birbirsawwan Libaanoon iyyuu isinitti burraaqanii, “Amma ati kufteerta; namni tokko iyyuu nu muruuf hin dhufu” jedhu.
The evergreens, too, have rejoiced over you, and the cedars of Lebanon, saying: ‘Since you have slept, no one has ascended who would cut us down.’
9 Siiʼool isheen gadii yeroo ati dhuftutti si simachuuf kaati; isheen akka isaan si dubbisaniif hafuurota warra duʼanii, warra addunyaa irratti hooggantoota turanii hunda dammaqsiteerti; isheen warra mootota sabootaa turan hunda teessoo isaanii irraa kaafti. (Sheol h7585)
Hell below was stirred up to meet you at your advent; it has awakened the giants for you. All the leaders of the earth have risen from their thrones, all the leaders among the nations.” (Sheol h7585)
10 Isaan hundinuu deebisanii akkana jedhu; “Atis akkuma keenya dadhabdeerta; akkuma keenya taateerta.”
Everyone will respond and will say to you: “Now you are wounded, just as we were; you have become like us.
11 Ulfinni kee hundinuu, sagalee baganaa keetii wajjin awwaala keessa buufameera; ilmaan raammoo si jala afamanii raammoon si haguugdi. (Sheol h7585)
Your arrogance has been dragged down to Hell. Your body has fallen dead. The moths will be strewn beneath you, and the worms will be your covering. (Sheol h7585)
12 Yaa bakkalcha barii, ilma barii barraaqaa, ati akkamitti samii irraa lafa dhoofte! Ati kan duraan saboota gad qabde, lafatti gad darbatamteerta!
How is it that you have fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, who used to rise like the sun? How is it that you have fallen to the earth, you who wounded the peoples?
13 Ati garaa keetti akkana jette; “Ani samiitti olin baʼa; ani urjiiwwan Waaqaatii olitti teessoo koo olin baafadha; ani tulluu wal gaʼii irra, fiixee tulluu qulqullichaa irra teessoo irra nan taaʼa.
And you said in your heart: ‘I will climb up to heaven. I will exalt my throne above the stars of God. I will be enthroned upon the mountain of the covenant, on the northern parts.
14 Ani fiixee duumessootaa gara irraatti ol nan baʼa; ani akka Waaqa Waan Hundaa Olii ofin taasisa.”
I will ascend above the tops of the clouds. I will be like the Most High.’
Yet truly, you shall be dragged down to Hell, into the depths of the pit. (Sheol h7585)
16 Warri si argan ija babaasanii si ilaalu; akkana jedhaniis dinqisiifatu: “Kun namichuma lafa sochoosee akka mootummoonni raafaman godhe,
Those who see you, will lean toward you, and will gaze upon you, saying: ‘Could this be the man who disturbed the earth, who shook kingdoms,
17 namicha addunyaa kana gammoojjii godhe, kan magaalaawwan ishee gaggaragalchee akka warri boojiʼaman mana isaaniitti hin deebine godhe sanaa?”
who made the world into a desert and destroyed its cities, who would not even open a prison for his prisoners?’”
18 Mootonni sabootaa hundi, ulfinaan awwaala isaanii keessa ciciisaniiru.
All the kings of the nations throughout the whole world have slept in glory, each man in his own house.
19 Ati garuu akkuma damee jibbame tokkootti, awwaala kee keessaa baafamtee gatamteerta; ati warra ajjeefamaniin, warra goraadeen waraanamaniin, warra gara dhagaa boollaatti gad buʼaniin haguugamteerta. Akkuma reeffaa miillaan dhidhiitamteerta;
But you have been rejected from your grave, like a useless polluted plant, and you have been bound up with those who were slain by the sword, and who descended to the bottom of the pit, like a rotting carcass.
20 ati sababii biyya kee balleessitee namoota kee fixxeef, isaan gidduutti hin awwaalamtu. Maqaan sanyii hamootaa lammata hin dhaʼamu.
You will not be associated with them, even in the grave. For you have destroyed your own land; you have slain your own people. The offspring of the wicked ones will not be called upon for eternity.
21 Sababii cubbuu abbootii isaaniitiif iddoo ilmaan isaa itti qalaman qopheessaa; isaan biyya dhaaluudhaaf, magaalaawwan isaaniitiinis lafa guutuuf hin kaʼan.
Prepare his sons for the slaughter, according to the iniquity of their fathers. They will not rise up, nor inherit the earth, nor fill the face of the world with cities.
22 “Ani isaanitti nan kaʼa,” jedha Waaqayyoon Waan Hunda Dandaʼu. “Ani Baabilon keessaa maqaa isheetii fi hambaa ishee, ilmaan isheetii fi sanyii ishee nan balleessa” jedha Waaqayyo.
But I will rise up against them, says the Lord of hosts. And I will perish the name of Babylon and its remnants: both the plant and its progeny, says the Lord.
23 “Ani iddoo urunguun keessa jiraattuu fi lafa caffee ishee nan godha; ani hartuu badiisaatiin ishee nan haxaaʼa” jedha Waaqayyoon Waan Hunda Dandaʼu.
And I will appoint it as a possession for the hedgehog, with swamps of water. And I will sweep it out and wear it away with a brush, says the Lord of hosts.
24 Waaqayyoon Waan Hunda Dandaʼu akkana jedhee kakateera; “Dhugumaan akkuma ani duraan karoorfadhe sana wanni kun ni taʼa; akkuma ani yaade sanas ni dhaabata.
The Lord of hosts has sworn, saying: Surely, just as I have considered it, so shall it be, and in the same manner as I have drawn it through my mind,
25 Ani biyya koo keessatti Asoorota nan barbadeessa; tulluuwwan koo irratti ani isa gad dhidhiita. Waanjoon isaa saba koo irraa ni fuudhama; baʼaan isaas gatiittii isaanii irraa ni buʼa.”
so shall it occur. So shall I crush the Assyrian in my land, and I will trample him upon my mountains, and his yoke will be taken away from them, and his burden will be removed from their shoulder.
26 Karoorri guutummaa addunyaatiif murtaaʼe kanaa dha; kun harka saboota hunda irratti diriirfamee dha.
This is the plan that I have decided, concerning the entire earth, and this is the hand which is extended over all the nations.
27 Waaqayyoon Waan Hunda Dandaʼu waan kana yaadeeraatii, eenyutu isa garagalcha? Harki isaa diriirfameeraa; eenyutu duubatti isa deebisuu dandaʼa?
For the Lord of hosts has decreed it, and who is able to weaken it? And his hand is extended, so who can avert it?
28 Raajiin kun bara Aahaaz mootichi duʼe keessa dhufe:
In the year in which king Ahaz died, this burden was given:
29 Yaa Filisxeemota, uleen isin dhaʼe waan cabeef, isin hundinuu hin gammadinaa; hidda bofa sanaa keessaa buutiitu baʼa; iji isaa bofa darbatamaa summii qabu ni taʼa.
You should not rejoice, all you of Philistia, that the rod of him who struck you has been crushed. For from the root of the serpent will go forth a king snake, and his offspring will engulf that which flies.
30 Hiyyeessi gadadamaan iddoo itti bobbaʼu argata; rakkataanis nagaadhaan ciisa. Hidda kee garuu ani beelaan nan barbadeessa; beellis hambaa kee ni fixa.
And the firstborn of the poor will be pastured, and the poor will rest in faithfulness. And I will cause your root to pass away by famine, and I will put to death your remnant.
31 Yaa karra, ati booʼi! Yaa magaalaa, iyyi! Filisxeemonni hundi baqaatii badaa! Duumessi aaraa tokko karaa kaabaatiin ni dhufa; raayyaa waraana isaa keessas kan citee hafu tokko iyyuu hin jiru.
Wail, O gate! Cry out, O city! All of Philistia has been prostrated. For a smoke will arrive from the north, and there is no one who will escape his army.
32 Ergamoota saba sanaatiif deebii akkamiitu kennamuu mala? “Waaqayyo jabeessee Xiyoonin dhaabeera; ishee keessattis namoonni isaa kanneen miidhaman daʼannoo ni argatu.”
And what will be the response to this news among the nations? It will be that the Lord has established Zion, and that the poor of his people will hope in him.
