Isaayyaas 57

1 Namni qajeelaan ni duʼa; kan waan kana yaadatti qabatu tokko iyyuu hin jiru; warri Waaqaaf of kennan ni fudhatamu; akka qajeeltonni waan hamaa jalaa baraaramuuf fudhataman namni tokko iyyuu hin hubatu.

The just man perishes, and there is no one who acknowledges it in his heart; and men of mercy are taken away, for there is no one who understands. For the just man has been taken away before the face of malice.

2 Namni qajeelummaadhaan jiraatu, gara nagaa seena; isaan siree isaanii irra boqotu.

Let peace arrive. Let he who has walked in his righteousness find rest on his bed.

3 “Isin garuu yaa ilmaan falfaltittii, isin sanyiin ejjituutii fi sagaagaltuu as kottaa!

But come here, you sons of the prophetess, you offspring of an adulterous man and a fornicating woman.

4 Isin eenyutti qoostu? Eenyutti afaan banattu? Eenyuttis arraba baaftu? Isin ilmaan finciltootaa, sanyii sobdootaa mitii?

Whom are you mocking? Against whom have you opened your mouth wide and wagged your tongue? Are you not sons of wickedness, a lying offspring,

5 Isin mukkeen qilxuu gidduutti, mukkeen dagaagan hunda jalatti hawwii hamaadhaan gubattan; sululoota keessatti, holqa kattaa keessattis ijoollee keessan qaltan.

who are being consoled by idols under every leafy tree, immolating little children at the torrents, under the high rocks?

6 Dhagaawwan cululuqoon sulula keessaa qooda kee ti; dhugumaan carraan kee isaanuma. Ati dhibaayyuu isaaniif dhangalaafte; aarsaa midhaanii isaaniif dhiʼeessiteerta. Ani wantoota kanneen calʼisee nan ilaalaa?

Your portion is in the currents of the torrent; this is your lot! And you yourselves have poured out libations to them; you have offered sacrifice. Should I not be angry over these things?

7 Ati siree kee tulluu guddaa fi ol dheeraa irra dhaabbatteerta; aarsaa kee dhiʼeeffachuufis achi ol baate.

Upon a high and lofty mountain, you have placed your bed, and you have ascended to that place to immolate victims.

8 Ati cufaa keetii fi michichila cufaa keetii duubaan, yaadannoo kee fannifatteerta. Ana dhiiftee siree kee saaqqatte; yaabdees balʼiftee banattee keessa seente; ati warra siree isaanii jaallatte wajjin walii galte sana qullaa isaanii ilaalte.

And behind the door, and beyond the post, you have set up your memorial. For you uncovered yourself next to me, and you received an adulterer. You widened your bed, and you formed a pact with them. You loved their bed with an open hand.

9 Ati zayitii ejersaa fudhattee gara Moolek dhaqxe; shittoo kee illee ni baayʼifatte. Ergamoota kee biyya fagootti ergite; siiʼoolittis gad ergite! (Sheol h7585)

And you have adorned yourself for the king with ointments, and you have increased your cosmetics. You have sent your representatives to distant places, and you have debased yourself all the way to Hell. (Sheol h7585)

10 Dheerina karaa keetiitiin dadhabdee turte; ati garuu, ‘Wanni kun faayidaa hin qabu’ hin jenne. Jabina haaromfame argatte; kanaafuu ati hin dadhabne.

You have been wearied by the multitude of your own ways. Yet you did not say, “I will cease.” You have found life by your own hand; because of this, you have not prayed.

11 “Ati akka na sobduuf akka na hin yaadanneef, yookaan akka waan kana garaatti hin qabanneef, eenyuun sodaattee akkas naate? Ati sababii ani yeroo dheeraa calʼiseef, na sodaachuu dhiifte mitii?

For whose sake have you been anxiously afraid, so that you would lie and not be mindful of me, nor consider me in your heart? For I am silent, and I am like someone who does not see, and so you have forgotten me.

12 Ani qajeelummaa keetii fi hojii kee ifatti nan baasa; isaan garuu si hin fayyadan.

I will announce your justice, and your works will not benefit you.

13 Yeroo ati gargaarsaaf iyyitutti, mee waaqonni tolfamoon ati walitti qabatte sun si haa baasan! Bubbeen hunda isaanii fudhatee bada; hafuurri baafatan iyyuu afuufee isaan balleessa. Namni daʼannoo isaa ana godhatu garuu biyyattii ni dhaala; tulluu koo qulqulluu sana illee ni dhuunfata.”

When you cry out, let your followers free you. But the wind will carry them all away; a breeze will take them up. But he who has faith in me will inherit the earth and will possess my holy mountain.

14 Akkanas ni jedhama: “Tolchaa; tolchaa; daandii qopheessaa! Karaa saba kootii irraa gufuuwwan bubuqqisaa.”

And I will say: “Make way! Grant passage! Move to the side of the path! Take the obstacles out of the way of my people!”

15 Inni guddaanii fi ol ol jedhe, kan bara baraan jiraatuu fi kan maqaan isaa qulqulluu jedhamu sun akkana jedha: “Ani iddoo ol kaʼaa fi iddoo qulqulluu irra nan jiraadha; hafuura warra gad qabamanii bayyanachiisuuf, garaa warra gad of qabanii jajjabeessuuf garraamii fi kan hafuuraan gad qabame wajjinis nan jiraadha.

For this is said by the Most High, the Sublime One, who dwells in eternity. And his name is Holy, for he dwells in the exalted and holy place, and he acts with a restrained and humble spirit, to revive the spirit of the humble, and to revive the heart of the contrite.

16 Ani bara baraan namatti hin falmu; yookaan yeroo hunda hin dheekkamu; yoo akkas taʼe hafuurri namaa, hafuurri namni ani uume baafatu ni citaatii.

For I will not contend unceasingly, and I will not be angry to the end. For I will exhale my breath, and the Spirit will go forth from my face.

17 Ani dharraa isaa kan cubbuun guutame sanattan dheekkame; isa adabees aariidhaan fuula koo isa duraa nan dhokfadhe; inni garuu karuma fedhii isaatiin itti fufe.

Because of the iniquity of his avarice, I was angry, and I struck him down. I concealed my face from you, and I was angry. And he went astray by wandering in his heart.

18 Ani karaa isaa argeera; garuu isa nan fayyisa; ani isa nan qajeelcha; deebisees nan jajjabeessa;

I saw his ways, and I healed him, and I led him back again, and I restored consolations to him and to those who mourn for him.

19 arraba boossuuwwan Israaʼel keessa jiraatanii irrattis galata nan uuma. Warra fagoo jiraataniif nagaan, warra dhiʼoo jiraataniifis nagaan haa taʼu. Anis isaan nan fayyisa” jedha Waaqayyo.

I created the fruit of the lips: peace, peace to him who is far away, and peace to him who is near, said the Lord, and I healed him.

20 Namoonni hamoon garuu akkuma galaana olii gadi daddarbatamu, kan boqochuu hin dandeenye, kan dambaliin isaa laaqii fi dhoqqee tufuu ti.

But the impious are like the raging sea, which is not able to be quieted, and its waves stir up dirt and mud.

21 “Namoota hamoof nagaan hin jiru” jedha Waaqni koo.

There is no peace for the impious, says the Lord God.
