1 H ear this word, a lamentation, which I take up against you, O house of Israel.

Dadka Israa'iilow, maqla eraygan aan idiinku barooranayo.

2 T he virgin of Israel is fallen; she shall no more arise: she is cast down upon her land; there is none to raise her up.

Bikradda ah dalka Israa'iil waa dhacday, oo mar dambena ma sara joogsan doonto. Dalkeedii ayaa lagu dayriyey, oo qof kor u qaada lama arko.

3 F or thus saith the Lord Jehovah: The city that went forth a thousand shall have a hundred left, and that which went forth a hundred shall have ten left, for the house of Israel.

Waayo, Sayidka Rabbiga ahu wuxuu leeyahay, Magaaladii ay kuni ka bixi jireen boqol baa u hadhi doona, oo tii ay boqoli ka bixi jireenna toban baa dadka Israa'iil u hadhi doona.

4 F or thus saith Jehovah unto the house of Israel: Seek ye me, and ye shall live.

Waayo, Rabbigu wuxuu dadka Israa'iil ku leeyahay, Aniga i doondoona aad noolaataane.

5 A nd seek not Bethel, neither go to Gilgal, and pass not to Beer-sheba; for Gilgal shall surely go into captivity, and Bethel shall come to nought.

Laakiinse Beytel ha doondoonina, Gilgaalna ha gelina, Bi'ir Shebacna ha u gudbina, waayo, sida xaqiiqada ah Gilgaal maxaabiisnimo bay geli doontaa, oo Beytelna way baabbi'i doontaa.

6 S eek Jehovah, and ye shall live; lest he break out like fire in the house of Joseph, and devour, and there be none to quench in Bethel.

Si aad u noolaataan, oo uusan Rabbigu sidii dab reer Yuusuf ugu soo farabbaxsan, oo aan dabku laasan, oo aan Beytel laga waayin wax demiya, Rabbiga doondoona,

7 Y e who turn judgment to wormwood, and cast down righteousness to the earth,

kuwiinna caddaaladda u roga dacar oo xaqnimadana dhulka ku tuura.

8 t hat made the Pleiades and Orion, and turneth the shadow of death into the morning, and maketh the day dark with night; that calleth for the waters of the sea, and poureth them out upon the face of the earth: Jehovah is his name.

Doondoona kan sameeyey ururrada xiddigaha ah oo la yidhaahdo Toddobaadyada iyo Oriyon, oo gudcurka subaxnimo u beddela, oo maalintana madoobeeya si ay habeen u noqoto, kan biyaha badda u yeedha oo dhulka ku daadiya, magiciisu waa Rabbi.

9 H e causeth destruction to break forth suddenly upon the strong, and bringeth destruction upon the fortress.

Isagu baabba' buu ku dejiyaa kuwa xoogga badan, si ay baabba'du ugu dhacdo qalcadda.

10 T hey hate him that reproveth in the gate, and they abhor him that speaketh uprightly.

Way neceb yihiin kii iridda wax ku canaanta, oo way karhaan kii si qumman u hadla.

11 F orasmuch, therefore, as ye trample upon the poor, and take from him presents of wheat: ye have built houses of hewn stone, but ye shall not dwell in them; ye have planted pleasant vineyards, and ye shall not drink the wine of them.

Miskiinka baad ku tumataan, oo waxaad ka qaadataan sarreen badan, sidaas daraaddeed guryihii aad dhagax la qoray ka dhisateen kuma hoyan doontaan, oo beercanabyadii wanwanaagsanaa ee aad beerateenna khamrigooda kama cabbi doontaan.

12 F or I know how manifold are your transgressions and your sins mighty: they afflict the just, they take a bribe, and they turn aside the needy in the gate.

Waayo, waan ogahay xadgudubyadiinnu inay badan yihiin, iyo dembiyadiinnu inay waaweyn yihiin, kuwiinnan kii xaqa ah dhiba, ee laaluush qaata, oo masaakiinta iridda joogtana xaqooda ka leexiya.

13 T herefore the prudent shall keep silence in this time; for it is an evil time.

Haddaba kii miyir lahu wakhtigaas wuu aamusnaan doonaa, waayo, waa wakhti shar ah.

14 S eek good, and not evil, that ye may live; and so Jehovah, the God of hosts, shall be with you, as ye say.

Wanaagga doondoona, sharkase ha doondoonina, aad noolaataane, oo sidaasuu Rabbiga ah Ilaaha ciidammadu idiinla jiri doonaa sidaad u tidhaahdaan.

15 H ate evil, and love good, and establish judgment in the gate: it may be that Jehovah, the God of hosts, will be gracious unto the remnant of Joseph.

Sharka nebcaada, oo wanaagga jeclaada, oo caddaalad iridda ku sameeya, waayo, waxaa suurtowda in Rabbiga ah Ilaaha ciidammadu uu u roonaado kuwa reer Yuusuf ka hadhay.

16 T herefore thus saith Jehovah, the God of hosts, the Lord: Wailing shall be in all broadways; and they shall say in all the streets, Alas! alas! And they shall call the husbandman to mourning, and such as are skilful of lamentation to wailing.

Haddaba Rabbiga ah Ilaaha ciidammada oo ah Sayidku wuxuu leeyahay, Dariiqyada oo dhan waxaa ka yeedhi doonta baroor, oo jidadka oo dhan waxaa laga odhan doonaa, Hoogay! Hoogay! Oo ninka beerreyda ah waxaa loogu yeedhi doonaa tacsi, oo kuwa baroorta aad u yaqaanna waxaa loogu yeedhi doonaa baroorasho.

17 A nd in all vineyards shall be wailing; for I will pass through the midst of thee, saith Jehovah.

Oo beercanabyada oo dhanna waxaa jiri doonta baroorasho, waayo, Rabbigu wuxuu leeyahay, Anigu waan idin dhex mari doonaa. Maalintii Rabbiga

18 W oe unto you that desire the day of Jehovah! To what end is the day of Jehovah for you? It shall be darkness and not light:

Kuwiinna maalinta Rabbiga jeclaystow, waa idiin hoog. Maxaad maalinta Rabbiga u doonaysaan? Waa gudcur, oo iftiin ma aha.

19 a s if a man fled from a lion, and a bear met him; or went into the house and leaned his hand on the wall, and a serpent bit him.

Waa sidii nin libaax ka cararay oo orso ka hor timid, ama intuu guri galay derbiga ku tiirsaday oo markaas abeeso gacanta ka qaniintay.

20 S hall not the day of Jehovah be darkness, and not light? even very dark, and no brightness in it?

Maalinta Rabbigu sow ma ahaan doonto gudcur aan iftiin lahayn, iyo xataa gudcur weyn oo aan dhalaal lahayn?

21 I hate, I despise your feasts, and I will not smell in your solemn assemblies.

Iidihiinna waan nebcahay, waanna quudhsadaa, oo shirarkiinnana kuma farxo.

22 F or if ye offer up unto me burnt-offerings and your oblations, I will not accept; neither will I regard the peace-offerings of your fatted beasts.

In kastoo aad ii bixisaan qurbaannadiinna aad gubtaan iyo qurbaannadiinna hadhuudhka ah anigu aqbali maayo, oo qurbaannadiinna nabaadiino oo xoolihiinna buurbuuranna dan ka yeelan maayo.

23 T ake away from me the noise of thy songs, and I will not hear the melody of thy lutes;

Iga fogeeya qaylada gabayadiinna, waayo, anigu dhegaysan maayo luuqda shareeradihiinna.

24 b ut let judgment roll down as waters, and righteousness as an ever-flowing stream.

Laakiinse caddaaladdu sida biyo ha u qulqusho, oo xaqnimaduna sida webi fatahaya ha u yaacdo.

25 D id ye bring unto me sacrifices and oblations in the wilderness forty years, O house of Israel?

Bal reer binu Israa'iilow, allabaryo iyo qurbaanno miyaad cidladii iigu bixiseen afartankii sannadood?

26 Y ea, ye took up the tabernacle of your Moloch, and Chiun your images, the star of your god, which ye had made to yourselves;

Waxaadse sidateen Taambuuggii Moleg iyo sanamyadii Kiyuun, kaasoo ah xiddigtii ilaahiinnii ee aad nafsaddiinna u samaysateen.

27 a nd I will cause you to go into captivity beyond Damascus, saith Jehovah, whose name is the God of hosts.

Haddaba sidaas daraaddeed Rabbiga magiciisu yahay Ilaaha ciidammadu wuxuu leeyahay, Anigu waxaan idinka dhigi doonaa in maxaabiis ahaan laydiinku kaxaysto Dimishaq shishadeeda.
