1 B al jidadka Yeruusaalem hore iyo dib ugu orda, oo bal fiiriya, oo garta, oo meelaheeda balballaadhanna ka doondoona nin qudha oo caddaalad sameeya oo runta doondoona, oo haddaad ka heli kartaanna iyada waan cafiyi doonaa.

“Run to and fro through the streets of Jerusalem; See now and know; And seek in her open places If you can find a man, If there is anyone who executes judgment, Who seeks the truth, And I will pardon her.

2 O o weliba in kastoo ay yidhaahdaan, Waa iga Rabbiga nool, sida xaqiiqada ah been bay ku dhaartaan.

Though they say, ‘ As the Lord lives,’ Surely they swear falsely.”

3 R abbiyow, indhahaagu runta sow ma fiiriyaan? Iyaga wax baad ku dhufatay, laakiinse innaba kama ay xumaan, oo waad baabbi'isay, laakiinse way diideen inay edeb qaataan. Wejigoodiina waxay ka dhigeen wax dhagax ka sii adag, oo inay soo noqdaanna way diideen.

O Lord, are not Your eyes on the truth? You have stricken them, But they have not grieved; You have consumed them, But they have refused to receive correction. They have made their faces harder than rock; They have refused to return.

4 M arkaasaan idhi, Sida xaqiiqada ah kuwanu waa masaakiin, oo waa nacasyo, waayo, Rabbiga jidkiisa iyo qaynuunka Ilaahooda toona garan maayaan.

Therefore I said, “Surely these are poor. They are foolish; For they do not know the way of the Lord, The judgment of their God.

5 W axaan u tegi doonaa ragga waaweyn, oo waan la hadli doonaa, waayo, iyagu Rabbiga jidkiisa iyo qaynuunka Ilaahooda way yaqaaniin. Laakiinse kuwanu dhammaantood harqoodkii way jebiyeen, oo xadhkihiina way kala gooyeen.

I will go to the great men and speak to them, For they have known the way of the Lord, The judgment of their God.” But these have altogether broken the yoke And burst the bonds.

6 O o sidaas daraaddeed waxaa iyaga dili doona libaax kaynta ka soo baxay, oo waxaa baabbi'in doonta yeyda fiideed. Oo magaalooyinkoodana waxaa gaagaatami doona shabeel, oo ku alla kii halkaas ka soo baxaba waa la kala dildillaacsan doonaa, maxaa yeelay, xadgudubyadoodu waa tiro badan yihiin, oo dibunoqoshadoodiina waa sii korodhay.

Therefore a lion from the forest shall slay them, A wolf of the deserts shall destroy them; A leopard will watch over their cities. Everyone who goes out from there shall be torn in pieces, Because their transgressions are many; Their backslidings have increased.

7 S idee baan kuu saamixi karaa? Carruurtaadii way iga tageen, oo waxay ku dhaarteen kuwa aan ilaahyo ahayn, oo markaan dherdhergiyey dabadeed ayay sinaysteen, oo iyagoo guutooyin ah ayay guryihii dhillooyinka ku soo urureen.

“How shall I pardon you for this? Your children have forsaken Me And sworn by those that are not gods. When I had fed them to the full, Then they committed adultery And assembled themselves by troops in the harlots’ houses.

8 W axay la mid noqdeen sidii fardo aroortii la barqiyey, oo midkood kastaaba wuxuu ka daba dananay naagtii deriskiisa.

They were like well-fed lusty stallions; Every one neighed after his neighbor’s wife.

9 R abbigu wuxuu leeyahay, Miyaanan iyaga waxyaalahan u ciqaabayn? Miyaanse naftaydu ka aarsanayn quruuntii tan oo kale ah?

Shall I not punish them for these things? ” says the Lord. “And shall I not avenge Myself on such a nation as this?

10 D erbiyadeeda fuula oo dumiya, laakiinse ha wada baabbi'inina. Laamaheedana qaada, waayo, kuwii Rabbiga ma aha.

“Go up on her walls and destroy, But do not make a complete end. Take away her branches, For they are not the Lord ’s.

11 W aayo, dadka Israa'iil iyo dadka Yahuudahba khiyaano bay igula macaamiloodeen, ayaa Rabbigu leeyahay.

For the house of Israel and the house of Judah Have dealt very treacherously with Me,” says the Lord.

12 R abbiga way dafireen, oo waxay yidhaahdeen, Isagu ma jiro. Masiibo nagu dhici mayso, oo seef iyo abaar midna arki mayno.

They have lied about the Lord, And said, “ It is not He. Neither will evil come upon us, Nor shall we see sword or famine.

13 O o nebiyaduna dabayl bay noqon doonaan, oo eraygu iyaga kuma jiro, oo sidaasaa iyaga lagu samayn doonaa.

And the prophets become wind, For the word is not in them. Thus shall it be done to them.”

14 O o sidaas daraaddeed Rabbiga ah Ilaaha ciidammadu wuxuu leeyahay, Erayadan aad ku hadasheen aawadood bal ogaada, ereyga afkaaga ku jira dab baan ka dhigi doonaa, oo dadkanna waxaan ka dhigi doonaa xaabo, oo isna wuu wada baabbi'in doonaa dhammaantood.

Therefore thus says the Lord God of hosts: “Because you speak this word, Behold, I will make My words in your mouth fire, And this people wood, And it shall devour them.

15 R abbigu wuxuu leeyahay, Dadka Israa'iilow, bal ogaada, quruun baan meel fog idinkaga keeni doonaa, oo taasu waa quruun xoog badan, oo waa quruun tan iyo waa hore jirtay, oo waa quruun aydaan afkeeda aqoon, oo aydaan innaba garanayn wax alla waxay yidhaahdaanba.

Behold, I will bring a nation against you from afar, O house of Israel,” says the Lord. “It is a mighty nation, It is an ancient nation, A nation whose language you do not know, Nor can you understand what they say.

16 G abooyahoodu waa sida qabri af bannaan, oo kulligoodna waa wada rag xoog leh.

Their quiver is like an open tomb; They are all mighty men.

17 O o iyagu waxay dhammayn doonaan waxaad beeraha ka goosataan iyo kibistiinna, oo waxay dhammayn doonaan wiilashiinna iyo gabdhihiinna, oo waxay dhammayn doonaan adhyihiinna iyo lo'diinnaba, oo waxay dhammayn doonaan canabkiinna iyo berdihiinnaba, oo magaalooyinkiinna deyrka leh oo aad isku hallaynaysaanna seef bay la dhici doonaan.

And they shall eat up your harvest and your bread, Which your sons and daughters should eat. They shall eat up your flocks and your herds; They shall eat up your vines and your fig trees; They shall destroy your fortified cities, In which you trust, with the sword.

18 O o Rabbigu wuxuu leeyahay, Habase ahaatee, anigu wakhtigaas idin wada baabbi'in maayo.

“Nevertheless in those days,” says the Lord, “I will not make a complete end of you.

19 O o markay yidhaahdaan, Rabbiga Ilaahayaga ahu bal muxuu waxyaalahan oo dhan noogu sameeyey? Kolkaas waxaad ku tidhaahdaa, Sidaad Rabbiga uga tagteen, oo aad ilaahyo qalaad dalkiinna ugu dhex adeegteen, sidaas oo kalaad shisheeyayaal ugu dhex adeegi doontaan dal aan kiinna ahayn.

And it will be when you say, ‘Why does the Lord our God do all these things to us?’ then you shall answer them, ‘Just as you have forsaken Me and served foreign gods in your land, so you shall serve aliens in a land that is not yours.’

20 W axan dadka Yacquub ka dhex sheega, oo dadka Yahuudah ka dhex naadiya, oo waxaad tidhaahdaan,

“Declare this in the house of Jacob And proclaim it in Judah, saying,

21 D adka nacasyada ahu oo aan waxgarashada lahayn, oo indhaha leh laakiinse aan waxba arkin, oo dhegaha leh laakiinse aan waxba maqlinow, bal haatan waxan maqla:

‘Hear this now, O foolish people, Without understanding, Who have eyes and see not, And who have ears and hear not:

22 R abbigu wuxuu leeyahay, War miyeydaan iga cabsanayn? Oo miyeydaan hortayda ku gariirayn? Waayo, anigu waxaan ahay kii cammuudda badda uga dhigay soohdinta, oo amar weligiis ah bixiyey inayan soo dhaafin, oo in kastoo ay mawjadaheedu aad u dhacaan, innaba kama ay adkaan karaan, oo in kastoo ay guuxaanna marna sooma ay dhaafi karaan.

Do you not fear Me?’ says the Lord. ‘Will you not tremble at My presence, Who have placed the sand as the bound of the sea, By a perpetual decree, that it cannot pass beyond it? And though its waves toss to and fro, Yet they cannot prevail; Though they roar, yet they cannot pass over it.

23 L aakiinse dadkanu waxay leeyihiin qalbi fallaagoobaya oo caasiyoobay, way fallaagoobeen oo way iska tageen.

But this people has a defiant and rebellious heart; They have revolted and departed.

24 O o innaba qalbigooda iskama ay yidhaahdaan, War haatan aynu ka cabsanno Rabbiga Ilaaheenna ah oo roobka hore iyo kan dambeba xilligiisa ina siiya, oo toddobaadyada beergoosashada loo go'ay inoo haya.

They do not say in their heart, “Let us now fear the Lord our God, Who gives rain, both the former and the latter, in its season. He reserves for us the appointed weeks of the harvest.”

25 X umaatooyinkiinna ayaa waxyaalahan idinka celiyey, oo dembiyadiinna ayaa waxyaalo wanwanaagsan idinka diiday.

Your iniquities have turned these things away, And your sins have withheld good from you.

26 W aayo, dadkayga dhexdiisa waxaa laga helaa niman shar ah. Waxay u gabbadaan sida kuwa wax dabta, oo intay dabin u qoolaan ayay dad qabsadaan.

‘For among My people are found wicked men; They lie in wait as one who sets snares; They set a trap; They catch men.

27 S ida qafas shimbirro ka buuxaan oo kale ayaa guryahooda khiyaano uga buuxdaa, oo sidaas daraaddeed ayay u weynaadeen oo u taajiroobeen.

As a cage is full of birds, So their houses are full of deceit. Therefore they have become great and grown rich.

28 A ad bay u buurnaadeen oo cayileen, oo xataa falimaha sharka ahna aad bay u badiyaan, ma garsooraan oo agoontana uma ay muddacaan si ay u barwaaqoobaan, oo masaakiintana xaqooda uma ay sameeyaan.

They have grown fat, they are sleek; Yes, they surpass the deeds of the wicked; They do not plead the cause, The cause of the fatherless; Yet they prosper, And the right of the needy they do not defend.

29 H addaba Rabbigu wuxuu leeyahay, Miyaanan iyaga waxyaalahan u ciqaabayn? Miyaanse naftaydu ka aarsanayn quruuntii tan oo kale ah?

Shall I not punish them for these things? ’ says the Lord. ‘Shall I not avenge Myself on such a nation as this?’

30 W ax baas oo yaab miidhan ah ayaa dalka lagu dhex sameeyey.

“An astonishing and horrible thing Has been committed in the land:

31 N ebiyadii waxay sii sheegaan wax been ah, oo wadaaddadiina waxay wax ku xukumaan iyaga taladooda, oo dadkaygiina saasay jecel yihiin, laakiinse bal maxaad ugudambaysta samayn doontaan?

The prophets prophesy falsely, And the priests rule by their own power; And My people love to have it so. But what will you do in the end?
