1 I t is bad for those who make laws that are not fair. It is bad for those who make it hard for people.

Hoog waxaa leh kuwa amarro aan xaq ahayn soo saara, iyo kuwa wax qalloocan qora,

2 T hey keep what is right and fair from those in need. They take away the rights of the poor of My people. They take from wives after their husbands die, and take what belongs to those who have no parents.

inay kuwa baahan garta ka qalloociyaan oo ay masaakiinta dadkaygana xaqooda ka qaadaan, oo ay carmallada ka dhigaan waxa ay dhacaan agoontana waxa ay ugaadhsadaan.

3 N ow what will you do in the day of punishment, when the destroying power comes from far away? To whom will you run for help? Where will you leave your riches?

Oo bal maxaad samayn doontaan maalinta ciqaabta, iyo wakhtiga baabbi'intu meesha fog ka iman doonto? Bal yaad u magangeli doontaan? Sharaftiinnana xaggee baad kaga tegi doontaan?

4 N othing will be left to do but to bow down among those who are being taken to prison, or fall among those who are killed. Even with all this, His anger does not turn away. His hand is still held out. Assyria Used to Punish Israel

Waxay ku dhex foororsan doonaan maxaabiista, oo waxay ku dhex dhici doonaan kuwa la layn doono. Hase ahaatee cadhadiisa kama uu sii jeedin, laakiinse gacantiisii weli way fidsan tahay. Xukunkii Ilaah Ee Ku Dhacay Aashuur

5 I t is bad for Assyria. I use Assyria like a stick to punish Israel.

Hoog waxaa leh ka reer Ashuur oo ah ushii cadhadayda iyo hangoolka dhirifkaygu gacanta ugu jiro.

6 I sent it against a nation without God, against the people of My anger. I sent it to take away the riches of battle, and to step hard on the people like dirt in the streets.

Isagaan u diri doonaa inuu quruun cibaadalaawayaal ah ku kaco, oo waxaan ku amri doonaa amar ka gees ah dadka aan u cadhooday, inuu maalkooda dhaco, oo uu maxaabiis kexeeyo, oo uu iyaga ugu tunto sida dhoobada jidadka dhex taal.

7 B ut this is not what is in Assyria’s mind. It does not plan this in its heart. It plans to destroy and to cut off many nations.

Habase ahaatee isagu saas kuma talo jiro, oo qalbigiisuna saas kuma fikiro, laakiinse waxaa qalbigiisa ku jira inuu baabbi'iyo oo jaro quruumo aan yarayn.

8 F or it says, “Are not my princes all kings?

Waayo, isagu wuxuu leeyahay, Amiirradaydu dhammaantood sow boqorro ma aha?

9 I s not Calno like Carchemish, or Hamath like Arpad, or Samaria like Damascus?

Kalnoo sow ma aha sida Karkemiish? Xamadna sow ma aha sida Arfaad? Samaariyana sow ma aha sida Dimishaq oo kale?

10 M y hand took the nations of the false gods, whose false gods were greater than those of Jerusalem and Samaria.

Sidii ay gacantaydu u gaadhay boqortooyooyinkii sanamyada, oo ay taswiirahoodii la xardhay ka sii badnayeen kuwa Yeruusaalem iyo Samaariya,

11 S hould I not do to Jerusalem and her gods just as I have done to Samaria and her gods?”

iyo sidii aan Samaariya iyo sanamyadeedii ku sameeyey oo kale, miyaanan Yeruusaalem iyo sanamyadeedaba ku samayn doonin?

12 S o when the Lord has completed all His work on Mount Zion and on Jerusalem, He will punish the proud heart of the king of Assyria and his proud spirit.

Sidaas daraaddeed markii Sayidku shuqulkiisa oo dhan ku dhammaystiro Buur Siyoon iyo Yeruusaalem, wuxuu odhan doonaa, Boqorka Ashuur ayaan u ciqaabi doonaa midhaha qalbigiisa isla weyn iyo faanka indhihiisa kibrayba.

13 F or the king has said, “I did this by the power of my hand and by my wisdom, for I have understanding. I moved the land-marks of the people and took their riches. Like a strong man I have brought down those who sat on thrones.

Waayo, isagu wuxuu yidhi, Tan waxaan ku sameeyey xoogga gacantayda iyo xigmaddayda, maxaa yeelay, miyir baan leeyahay, oo waxaan durkiyey dadyowga soohdintooda, khasnadahoodiina waan dhacay, oo sidii nin geesi ah oo kale ayaan kuwii carshiyada ku fadhiyey u soo dejiyey.

14 M y hand has taken the riches of the people like one taken from a nest. I gathered all the earth as one gathers eggs that have been left. And there was not one that moved its wing or opened its mouth or made a sound.”

Oo gacantayduna waxay maalkii dadka u heshay sidii buul shimbireed oo kale, oo sida loo soo ururiyo ukumo laga tegey ayaan u soo ururiyey dhulka oo dhan, oo lamana arag mid baal dhaqaajiyey, ama afka kala qaaday, amase ciyey.

15 C an an ax say it is more important than the one who uses it? Is the saw more important than the one who saws with it? A stick of wood does not lift up a man. A man lifts up a stick.

Miyuu faasku ka faanaa kan isaga wax ku gooya? Minshaartuna miyey iska sii weynaysaa kan iyada ku shaqeeya? Waa sida haddii ulu iska gilgisho kuwa iyada kor u qaada, amase sida hangool kor u qaada kan aan qori ahayn?

16 S o the Lord, the Lord of All, will send a wasting disease among the strong Assyrian soldiers. Under the king’s greatness a fire will be started that will burn and burn.

Haddaba sidaas daraaddeed Sayidka ah Sayidka ciidammadu wuxuu kuwiisa cayilay ku soo diri doonaa macaluul, oo sharaftiisa meesheedana waxaa lagu shidi doonaa olol ah sida olol dabeed.

17 T he light of Israel and his Holy One will become a fire. And it will burn and destroy his thorns and thistles in one day.

Iftiinka Israa'iilna wuxuu noqon doonaa dab, oo kiisa Quduuska ahuna olol, oo maalin qudha ayuu gubi doonaa oo baabbi'in doonaa qodxantiisa iyo yamaaruggiisba,

18 T he Lord will destroy the greatness of the trees and the fields that give much fruit, both soul and body. It will be as when a sick man wastes away.

oo wuxuu dhammayn doonaa ammaanta duuddiisa iyo beertiisa midhaha badanba, iyo naf iyo jidhba, oo waxay noqon doontaa sidii markii calanqaade taag darnaado.

19 A nd the rest of his trees will be so few that a child could write them down. A Few of Israel Will Return

Oo geedaha duuddiisa ku hadhayna waxay noqon doonaan in yar oo ilma yaru tiradooda qori karo. Kuwii Ka Hadhay Israa'iil

20 I n that day those of Israel and of the family of Jacob who are still alive will never again trust in the one who destroyed them. But they will trust in the Lord, the Holy One of Israel.

Oo waxay maalintaas noqon doontaa in kuwa dadka Israa'iil ka hadhay iyo intii dadka Yacquub ka baxsatayba ayan mar dambe ku tiirsan kii iyaga wax ku dhuftay, laakiinse waxay si run ah ugu tiirsan doonaan Rabbiga ah Kan Quduuska ah oo dadka Israa'iil.

21 S ome people, those who are left of Jacob, will return to the powerful God.

Qaar hadhay baa soo noqon doona, xataa qaar hadhay oo dadka Yacquub waxay u soo noqon doonaan Ilaaha xoogga badan.

22 E ven if there are as many Jews as the sand by the sea, only a few of them will return. The plan is to destroy them and it will be right and complete.

Israa'iilow, in kastoo dadkaagu u badan yahay sida cammuudda badda, qaar yar oo qudha ayaa soo noqon doona, oo baabba' la soo amray ayaa caddaalad la qarqi doona.

23 F or the Lord of All will destroy everything in the whole land and do what He planned. Assyria Will Be Punished

Waayo, Sayidka ah Rabbiga ciidammadu wuxuu baabbi'id la amray ku samayn doonaa dhulka dhexdiisa oo dhan.

24 S o the Lord, the Lord of All, says, “O My people who live in Zion, do not be afraid of the Assyrians when they come to fight against you as the Egyptians did.

Haddaba sidaa daraaddeed Sayidka ah Rabbiga ciidammadu wuxuu leeyahay, Dadkayga Siyoon degganow, kan reer Ashuur ha ka baqin. Ushiisuu kugu dhufan doonaa, oo hangoolkiisuu kuu qaadan doonaa sida Masriyiintu sameeyeen oo kale,

25 F or in a very little while My anger against you will come to an end and it will be turned to destroy them.”

laakiin, weli wakhti yar baa hadhay, dabadeedna dhirifkaygu wuu idlaan doonaa, oo cadhadayduna way ku dhammaan doontaa baabba'ooda.

26 T he Lord of All will punish them like He punished Midian at the rock of Oreb. His special stick will be over the sea and He will lift it up the way He did in Egypt.

Oo Rabbiga ciidammaduna wuxuu iyaga ku ciqaabi doonaa karbaash u gala sida layntii reer Midyaan oo ka dhacday dhagixii weynaa ee Xoreeb agtiisa, oo sida ushiisu u kor ahayd badda ayuu kor ugu qaadi doonaa sidii Masar loogu qaaday oo kale.

27 I n that day the Assyrian’s load will be taken from your shoulders and neck, and it will be broken because you are so fat.

Oo maalintaas rarkiisa ayaa garbahaaga laga qaadi doonaa, oo harqoodkiisana surkaagaa laga dejin doonaa, oo harqoodkuna wuxuu u baabbi'i doonaa saliidda aawadeed.

28 H e has come against Aiath. He has passed through Migron. At Michmash he left his bags.

Cayaad buu yimid, oo Migroon buu dhex maray, oo wuxuu alaabtiisii dhigtay Mikmaash.

29 T hey have gone through a narrow path. They stayed in Geba during the night. Ramah is afraid, and Gibeah of Saul has run away.

Way gudbeen meeshii laga gudbi jiray, oo waxay ku dhaxeen Gebac. Raamaah way gariirtay, Gibecaahdii Saa'uulna way carartay.

30 C ry out with your voice, O people of Gallim! See, Laishah! Answer her, O Anathoth!

Magaalada Galliimay, codkaaga kor u qaad! Layishay, maqal! Adaa hoogay, Canaatooday!

31 M admenah has run away. The people of Gebim have looked for a safe place.

Madmeenaah way carartay, oo dadkii Gebiim degganaana waxay isu soo urursadeen inay baxsadaan.

32 Y et today he will stop at Nob. He shakes his hand at the mountain of the people of Zion, the hill of Jerusalem.

Maantadan wuxuu soo joogsan doonaa Nob, oo wuxuu gacantiisa ku ruxayaa buurta magaalada Siyoon oo ah kurta Yeruusaalem.

33 S ee, the Lord, the Lord of All, will cut off the branches with a great noise. Those who stand tall will be cut down. And those who are high will be brought low.

Bal eega, Sayidka ah Rabbiga ciidammadu wuxuu laamaha u gooyn doonaa si aad loogaga cabsado, oo kuwa waaweynna waa la jari doonaa, oo kuwa dhaadheerna waa la ridi doonaa.

34 H e will cut down the many trees with an iron ax. And Lebanon will fall by the Powerful One.

Oo jiqda duuddana bir buu ku jari doonaa, oo Lubnaanna waxay ku dhici doontaa mid xoog badan gacantiis.
