1 B ut there will be no more heavy hearts for those who were suffering. In the past God allowed the lands of Zebulun and Naphtali to be put to shame. In the future He will honor Galilee where those who are not Jews live and where the road to the sea is. It is on the other side of the Jordan.

Habase ahaatee madow uma ahaan doono tii cidhiidhiga ku jirtay. Waagii hore wuxuu ka dhigay in la quudhsado dhulka Sebulun iyo dhulka Naftaali, laakiinse waagii dambe wuxuu ka dhigay in la sharafo dhulka ah xagga jidka badda, iyo Webi Urdun shishadiisa, iyo Galili quruumaha ka mid ah.

2 T he people who walk in darkness will see a great light. The light will shine on those living in the land of dark shadows.

Dadkii ku socon jiray gudcurka ayaa iftiin weyn arkay, kuwii fadhiyi jiray dalka hooska dhimashada ahna iftiin baa u baxay.

3 Y ou will make the nation great. You will give them great joy. They will be glad before You, as with the joy of gathering time, and as men have joy when they divide the riches taken after a battle.

Adigu quruunta waad badisay, oo farxaddoodiina waad sii kordhisay, oo waxay hortaada ugu farxaan sida farxadda wakhtiga beeraha la goosto, iyo sida niman booli qaybsanayaa ay u reyreeyaan oo kale.

4 F or You will break the heavy load from their neck and shoulders. You will break the power of those who made it hard for them, as at the battle of Midian.

Waayo, harqoodkii ku cuslaa, iyo hangoolkii garbaha lagaga dhufan jiray, iyo ushii kii dulmi jiray, ayaad jebisay sidii waagii reer Midyaan.

5 F or every shoe of the soldiers in the battle, and every coat rolled in blood, will be burned in the fire.

Waayo, ninka hubka leh ee buuqa ku dhex jira hubkiisa oo dhan iyo dharka dhiigga miidhanna waa la gubi doonaa oo waxaa laga dhigi doonaa wax dabka lagu shido.

6 F or to us a Child will be born. To us a Son will be given. And the rule of the nations will be on His shoulders. His name will be called Wonderful, Teacher, Powerful God, Father Who Lives Forever, Prince of Peace.

Waayo, waxaa inoo dhashay ilmo, waxaa layna siiyey wiil, oo boqornimadu garbihiisay saarmi doontaa, oo magiciisana waxaa loo bixin doonaa Ka Yaabkaleh, iyo Lataliye, iyo Ilaaha Xoogga leh, iyo Aabbaha Daa'imka ah, iyo Amiirka Nabadda.

7 T here will be no end to His rule and His peace, upon the throne of David and over his nation. He will build it to last and keep it strong with what is right and fair and good from that time and forever. The work of the Lord of All will do this. Punishment against Israel

Oo boqornimadiisa iyo nabaddu way badnaan doonaan, dhammaadna uma lahaan doonaan carshiga Daa'uud iyo boqortooyadiisa, in la sii adkeeyo, oo caddaalad iyo xaqnimo lagu sii hayo haatan iyo tan iyo weligeedba. Oo tan waxaa samayn doona qiirada Rabbiga ciidammada. Cadhadii Rabbiga

8 T he Lord sends word against Jacob, and it falls on Israel.

Sayidku wuxuu eray u soo diray dadka Yacquub wuxuuna ku kor dhacay dadka Israa'iil.

9 A nd all the people will know it, that is, Ephraim and the people of Samaria. They say with a proud spirit in their hearts,

Oo waxaa garan doona dadka oo dhan, xataa reer Efrayim iyo kuwa Samaariya deggan oo kibirka iyo islaweynaanta qalbiga ku hadla, iyagoo leh,

10 “ The clay blocks have fallen down, but we will build again with smooth stones. The sycamore trees have been cut down, but we will put cedar trees in their place.”

Lebennadii way soo dheceen, laakiinse annagu waxaannu ku dhisi doonnaa dhagaxyo la qoray, geedihii darayga ahaa waa la jaray, laakiinse waxaannu ku beddeli doonnaa geedo kedar ah.

11 S o the Lord brings men from Rezin to fight against them. He makes those who hate them move to action.

Haddaba sidaas daraaddeed Rabbigu wuxuu ku soo kicin doonaa kuwa Resiin la col ah, oo cadaawayaashiisana wuu isku soo wada ururin doonaa dhammaantood,

12 T he Syrians on the east and the Philistines on the west swallow Israel with an open mouth. Even with this, the Lord’s anger does not turn away. His hand is still held out.

wuxuu reer Suuriya ka soo kicin doonaa xagga bari, reer Falastiinna xagga galbeed, oo waxay dadka Israa'iil ku cuni doonaan af furan. Hase ahaatee cadhadiisa kama uu sii jeedin, laakiinse gacantiisii weli way fidsan tahay.

13 Y et the people do not return to Him Who punished them. They do not look to the Lord of All.

Laakiinse dadku uma ay soo noqon kii iyaga wax ku dhuftay, mana ay doondoonin Rabbiga ciidammada.

14 S o the Lord will cut off the head and tail from Israel, both palm branch and river-grass in one day.

Haddaba sidaas daraaddeed Rabbigu maalin keliya ayuu dadka Israa'iil ka jari doonaa madaxa iyo dabadaba, iyo laanta iyo cawsduurkaba.

15 T he leaders and men of honor are the head, and the tail is the false preachers who teach lies.

Odayga iyo kan sharafta lahu waa madaxa, oo nebiga dadka beenta baraana waa dabada.

16 F or those who lead these people are leading them from the right way, and those who are led by them are going the wrong way.

Waayo, dadkan hoggaamiyayaashoodu way qaldaan, oo kuwa la hoggaamiyaana way wada baabba'aan.

17 S o the Lord is not pleased with their young men. He does not have pity on their children who have no parents or on their women whose husbands have died. Every one of them is without God and does sinful things. Every mouth speaks foolish words. Even with all this, His anger does not turn away. His hand is still held out.

Haddaba sidaas daraaddeed Sayidku ku farxi maayo barbaarradooda, oo agoontooda iyo carmalladoodana u naxariisan maayo, waayo, midkood kastaaba waa cibaadalaawe iyo xumaanfale, oo af kastaana wuxuu ku hadlaa wax nacasnimo ah. Hase ahaatee cadhadiisa kama uu sii jeedin, laakiinse gacantiisii weli way fidsan tahay.

18 F or sin burns like a fire. It burns thistles and thorns. It sets the woods on fire, and they go up in smoke.

Waayo, xumaantu waxay wax u gubtaa sida dabka oo kale, oo waxay dam ka dhigtaa yamaarugga iyo qodxanta, oo jiqda duuddana way ololisaa, oo waxaa kor uga baxa daruur qiiq ah.

19 T he land is burned up by the anger of the Lord, and the people are like wood for the fire. No man shows pity on his brother.

Dhulku wuxuu la gubtay Rabbiga ciidammada cadhadiisa, oo dadkuna waxay yihiin sida wax dabka lagu shido, oo ninna walaalkiis ma caymiyo.

20 T hey take what is on the right hand but still are hungry. They eat what is in the left hand but are not filled. Each of them eats the flesh of his own children.

Xagga gacanta midig ayaa wax laga dhufsan doonaa, waana la sii gaajoon doonaa, xagga gacanta bidixna wax baa lagu cuni doonaa, lamana dhergi doono, oo midkood kastaaba wuxuu cuni doonaa hilibka gacantiisa.

21 M anasseh goes against Ephraim, and Ephraim goes against Manasseh. And together they are against Judah. Even with all this, the Lord’s anger does not turn away. His hand is still held out.

Reer Manaseh waxay cuni doonaan reer Efrayim, oo reer Efrayimna waxay cuni doonaan reer Manaseh, oo iyana dhammaantood waxay col ku ahaan doonaan reer Yahuudah. Hase ahaatee cadhadiisa kama uu sii jeedin, laakiinse gacantiisii weli way fidsan tahay.
