1 O o haddana Eraygii Rabbiga ayaa ii yimid isagoo leh,

The Word of the Lord came to me saying,

2 W iilka Aadamow, waxaa jiray laba naagood oo isku hooyo ah.

“Son of man, there were two women, daughters of the same mother.

3 O o dhillanimo bay Masar ku sameeyeen, oo intii ay yaryaraayeen ayay dhilloobeen. Halkaasna naasahoodii waa lagu tuujiyey, oo halkaasaa ibihii naasaha ee bikradnimadooda lagu nabareeyey.

They sold the use of their bodies in Egypt, and did so when they were young. Their breasts were lain upon in that land. Their breasts, which had never before been held by a man, were held.

4 O o labadooda tan weyn waxaa la odhan jiray Aaholaah, oo walaasheed magaceeduna wuxuu ahaa Aaholiibaah, oo kuwaygay noqdeen, oo waxay dhaleen wiilal iyo gabdho. Haddaba magacyadoodu waa sidan, Aaholaah waa Samaariya, oo Aaholiibaahna waa Yeruusaalem.

The name of the older sister was Oholah, and her younger sister was Oholibah. They became Mine and gave birth to sons and daughters. Oholah is Samaria, and Oholibah is Jerusalem. The Older Sister—Samaria

5 A aholaah waxay dhillaysatay iyadoo taydii ah, oo waxay caashaqday kuwii iyada jeclaa ee reer Ashuur oo deriska la ahaa,

“Oholah sold the use of her body while she was Mine. She was full of desire for her lovers, the Assyrians who lived near her

6 k uwaas oo dhar buluug ah xidhnaa, oo ahaa saraakiil iyo taliyayaal, oo kulligood dhallinyaro suurad wacan ahaa, oo ahaa fardooley fardo fuushan.

who were dressed in purple. They were rulers and leaders, all of them good-looking young men who rode on horses.

7 O o iyadu kulligood bay ka dhillaysatay, kuwaasoo kulligood ahaa raggii Ashuur ee ugu wacanaa, oo ku alla kii ay caashaqday iyo sanamyadoodii oo dhanba way isugu nijaasaysay.

She gave her body to them for sex. They were all the best men of Assyria. And she also sinned by worshiping the false gods of all the men she desired.

8 O o iyadu innaba kama ay tegin dhillanimadeedii tan iyo markay Masar joogtay, waayo, iyadoo yar ayay la seexdeen, oo ibihii naasaha ee bikradnimadeeda way nabareeyeen, oo dhillanimadoodii ayay iyada ku kor shubeen.

She did not turn away from her sex sins she had begun in Egypt. Men had lain with her since she was young. They had held her young breasts and used her to fill their desire.

9 O o sidaas daraaddeed waxaan u gacangeliyey kuwii iyada jeclaan jiray ee reer Ashuur oo ay caashaqday.

So I gave her over to her lovers the Assyrians whom she desired.

10 K uwaasu cawradeedii bay soo bandhigeen, oo waxay qaateen wiilasheedii iyo gabdhaheedii, iyadiina seef bay ku dileen, oo magaceediina magac xun buu dumarka dhexdiisa ku noqday, waayo, xukummo baa lagu soo dejiyey.

They took off her clothes. They took her sons and daughters. But they killed her with the sword. So she became a saying among women, because she was punished. The Younger Sister—Jerusalem

11 O o walaasheed Aaholiibaahna waxaas way aragtay, laakiinse iyadu way kaga sii darnayd caashaqeedii, oo xagga dhillanimadana way ka sii darnayd dhillanimada walaasheed.

“Her sister Oholibah saw this, but she was more sinful in her desire for sex than Oholah. Her sex sins were worse than those of her sister.

12 W axay caashaqday kuwii reer Ashuur ee deriska la ahaa, oo ahaa saraakiil iyo taliyayaal si qurux badan u xidhan, oo ahaa fardooley fardo fuushan, oo kulligood wada ahaa dhallinyaro suurad wacan.

She wanted to have the Assyrians, rulers and leaders, men who were well dressed, those who rode on horses, all those good looking young men.

13 O o anigu waxaan arkay inay nijaasowday, oo ay labadoodiiba isku jid qaadeen.

And I saw that she was sinful. Both sisters went the same way.

14 D hillanimadeediina way sii kordhisay, waayo, waxay aragtay niman derbiga ku taswiiran, oo ahaa taswiirihii reer Kaldayiin oo asal guduudan lagu taswiiray,

But she did even more sex sins. She saw pictures of men on the wall, pictures of Babylonians drawn in bright red.

15 o o dhexda dhex-xidhyo ugu xidhan yihiin, oo madaxana duubab la sibaaqeeyey ugu xidhan yihiin, oo kulligood la wada moodo amiirro u eg reer Baabuloon dalkoodu Kalday yahay.

They had belts around them, and flowing head-coverings. All of them looked like Babylonian captains who were born in Chaldea.

16 O o isla markii ay aragtay ayay caashaqday, oo farriinqaadayaal dalkii Kalday bay ugu dirtay.

And when she saw them, she had a desire for sex with them, and sent word to them in Chaldea.

17 O o reer Baabuloon ayaa iyada sariirtii caashaqa ugu soo galay, oo dhillanimadoodii iyaday ku nijaaseeyeen, oo iyana iyagay la nijaasowday, oo nafsaddeediina iyagay ka go'day.

The Babylonians came to her, to the bed of love. They made her sinful with their desire. And after she had had sex with them, she became sick of them.

18 S idaasay dhillanimadeedii u soo bandhigtay oo cawradeedii daahay ka qaadday, markaasaa nafsaddaydii iyada uga go'day sidii ay nafsaddaydu walaasheed uga go'day oo kale.

When she let her sins and her body be seen, I turned away from her in anger, as I had turned from her sister.

19 L aakiinse waxay sii badisay dhillanimadeedii iyadoo wakhtigii yaraanteeda soo xusuusanaysa markay dalkii Masar ku dhillowday.

Yet she did even more sex sins. She remembered when she was young, when she sold the use of her body in the land of Egypt.

20 W axay caashaqday dhillayadeeda uu jiidhkoodu yahay sida jiidhka dameerrada, oo ay shahwaddooduna tahay sida shahwadda fardaha oo kale.

She was full of desire for lovers whose flesh was like those of donkeys, and whose flow was like that of horses.

21 O o sidaas ayaad u soo xusuusatay sharkii yaraantaada markay Masriyiintu ibihii naasahaaga ee yaraantaada nabarayn jireen.

Oholibah, you were filled with desire for the sex sins you did when you were young, when the Egyptians held your breasts. Jerusalem Is Judged

22 S idaas daraaddeed Sayidka Rabbiga ahu wuxuu leeyahay, Aaholiibaahay, bal ogow, kuwii ku caashaqi jiray ayaan kugu soo kicin doonaa, kuwaasoo ay naftaadu ka go'day, oo iyagaan dhinac kasta kaaga soo dayn doonaa,

“So, Oholibah, the Lord God says, ‘I will bring your lovers against you, those you turned away from. I will bring them against you from every side:

23 k uwaasoo ah reer Baabuloon, iyo reer Kaldayiin oo dhan, iyo Feqood, iyo Shooca, iyo Qooca, iyo reer Ashuur oo dhan oo iyaga la jira, oo kulligood ah rag dhallinyaro ah oo suurad wacan oo ah saraakiil iyo taliyayaal, iyo amiirro, iyo rag caan ah, oo kulligood fardo fuushan.

Babylonians and all the Chaldeans, Pekod, Shoa, Koa, and all the Assyrians with them, good looking young men, all of them rulers, leaders, captains, and men who are well-known, all of them riding on horses.

24 O o waxay kugula soo duuli doonaan hub iyo gaadhifardood iyo giraangiro iyo guuto dad, oo hareerahaaga oo dhan ayay kaaga soo kici doonaan iyagoo wata gaashaan weyn, iyo gaashaan yar, iyo koofiyad bir ah, oo waxaan iyaga u dhiibi doonaa xukun, oo waxay kuu xukumi doonaan sida ay xukummadoodu yihiin.

They will come against you from the north, with war-wagons and an army of people. They will come against you on every side with battlecoverings and head-coverings. And I will let them punish you. They will punish you in their own way.

25 O o waxaan kugu soo dayn doonaa xanaaqayga masayrka ah, oo iyaguna cadho bay kugula macaamiloon doonaan. Waxay kaa gooyn doonaan sanka iyo dhegaha, oo intii kaa hadhaana seef bay ku dhici doontaa. Waxayna kaxaysan doonaan wiilashaada iyo gabdhahaagaba, oo intii kaa hadhana dab baa baabbi'in doona.

Because of My jealous anger, I will let them act toward you in anger. They will cut off your nose and ears, and any people who are left will be killed by the sword. They will take your sons and daughters, and any yet left will be burned in the fire.

26 O o weliba dharkaaga way kaa wada muruxsan doonaan, oo jowharadahaaga qurxoonna way kaa furan doonaan.

They will take away your clothes and take away the beautiful objects you wear.

27 O o sidaasaan kaaga joojin doonaa sharkaagii iyo dhillanimadaadii aad dalka Masar ka keentay, si aadan indhahaaga kor ugu taagin, oo aadan Masar kol dambe soo xusuusan.

So I will put an end to the sex sins you brought from the land of Egypt. You will never again look at these things with desire or remember Egypt.’

28 W aayo, Sayidka Rabbiga ahu wuxuu leeyahay, Bal eeg, waxaan kugu ridi doonaa gacantii kuwa aad neceb tahay, iyo gacantii kuwii ay nafsaddaadu ka go'day.

For the Lord God says, ‘I will give you over to those you hate, to the men you turned away from.

29 I yagu si nacayb badan ayay kugula macaamiloon doonaan, oo wixii aad ku hawshootay oo dhanna way kaa qaadan doonaan, oo waxay kaa tegi doonaan adigoo qaawan oo aan dednayn. Oo cawradii dhillanimadaadana daahaa laga qaadi doonaa, xataa sharkaaga iyo dhillanimadaadaba.

And because they hate you, they will take away everything you own and leave you without clothing. Then your body without clothes will be seen as a sinful woman.

30 W axyaalahaas waa lagugu samayn doonaa, maxaa yeelay, dhillanimo baad quruumaha la daba gashay, oo sanamyadooda waad ku nijaasowday.

These things will be done to you because you have sold the use of your body to the nations, and because you have made yourself sinful with their false gods.

31 W axaad qaadday jidkii walaashaa, oo sidaas daraaddeed koobkeedii gacantaan kuu gelin doonaa.

You have followed the way of your sister, so I will give you the same cup of punishment to drink.’

32 S ayidka Rabbiga ahu wuxuu leeyahay, Waxaad cabbi doontaa walaashaa koobkeedii dheeraa oo weynaa, oo fudaydsasho baa laguugu qosli doonaa oo waa lagu quudhsan doonaa, waayo, wuu buuxaa.

The Lord God says, ‘You will drink your sister’s cup, which is deep and wide. You will be laughed at and made fun of, for it holds much.

33 A ad baad u sakhraami doontaa oo murug baa kaa buuxsami doonta, oo waxaad ku cabbi doontaa koobkii yaabka iyo baabba'da, kaasoo ah koobkii walaashaa Samaariya.

You will become drunk and filled with sorrow, with the cup of fear and waste, with the cup of your sister Samaria.

34 W aad cabbi doontaa, oo weliba waad heenheensan doontaa, oo burburkiisana waad ruugi doontaa, oo naasahaagaad jiidi doontaa, waayo, Sayidka Rabbiga ahu wuxuu leeyahay, Aniga ayaa saas ku hadlay.

You will drink it until it is empty. Then you will chew its pieces and tear your breasts, for I have spoken,’ says the Lord God.

35 S idaas daraaddeed Sayidka Rabbiga ahu wuxuu leeyahay, Waad i illowday oo dhabarkaaga gadaashiisaad igu xoortay, sidaas daraaddeed waa inaad sharkaaga iyo dhillanimadaadaba u xambaarataa.

So the Lord God says, ‘Because you have forgotten Me and put Me behind your back, now suffer the punishment of your sex sins.’” Both Sisters Are Judged

36 O o weliba Rabbigu wuxuu kaloo igu yidhi, Wiilka Aadamow, Aaholaah iyo Aaholiibaah miyaad xukumi doontaa? Bal waxyaalahooda karaahiyada ah u sheeg.

The Lord said to me, “Son of man, will you judge Oholah and Oholibah? Make them know their sinful acts.

37 W aayo, way sinaysteen, oo dhiig baa gacmahooda ku jira, oo sanamyadoodana way ka sinaysteen, oo wiilashoodii ay ii dhaleenna dab bay u dhex marsiiyeen si ay u baabba'aan aawadeed.

For they have not been faithful to Me, and blood is on their hands. They have left Me for their false gods. And they gave their sons to these false gods as burnt gifts, the sons they had given to Me at birth.

38 O o weliba saasoo kalay igu sameeyeen. Iyagu isku maalin ayay meeshaydii quduuska ahayd nijaaseeyeen, oo sabtiyadaydiina wax nijaas ah bay ka dhigeen.

That is not all they did. At that same time they have not kept My holy place and My Days of Rest holy.

39 W aayo, markay carruurtoodii sanamyadooda u qaleen ayay isla maalintaasba meeshaydii quduuska ahayd u soo galeen inay nijaaseeyaan, oo bal eeg, waxaas ayay gurigayga dhexdiisa ku sameeyeen.

When they had killed their children for their false gods, they went into My holy place on the same day to make it unclean. This is what they did within My house.

40 O o weliba rag baad meel fog uga cid dirsatay, oo waxaa loo diray wargeeye, oo bal eeg, iyana way yimaadeen, oo iyaga aawadood ayaad isu soo maydhay, oo u indhakuushatay, oo wax baad isugu sharraxday,

They even sent for men who came from far away. And when they came, you washed yourselves, colored your eyes, and put on beautiful objects for them.

41 o o waxaad ku fadhiisatay sariir haybad badan oo miis horteeda lagu soo diyaarshay, kaasoo aad fooxaygii iyo saliiddaydii saartay.

You sat on a beautiful seat with a table made ready in front of it on which you had set My special perfume and My oil.

42 O o waxaa iyada la jiray codka dadka faraha badan, oo raaxaysan, oo dadkii faraha badnaana waxaa la yimid sakhraamiin cidlada laga keenay, oo waxay gacmaha u geliyeen dugaagado, oo madaxana taaj qurux badan bay u saareen.

The sound of a group free of care was around you. Men who drank too much were brought from the desert with men who were not important. They put beautiful objects on the women’s hands and beautiful crowns on their heads.

43 M arkaasaan tii sinada ku gabowday ka idhi, Miyey haddana ka sinaysan doonaan, oo iyaduse miyey iyaga ka dhillaysan doontaa?

Then I said about the one who was worn out by sex sins, ‘Will they now lie with her when she is this way?’

44 L aakiinse iyadii waxay ugu galeen sidii naag dhillo ah loogu galo oo kale, oo sidaasay ugu galeen naagihii sharka ahaa oo ahaa Aaholaah iyo Aaholiibaah.

But they went in to her as they would go in to a woman who sells the use of her body. So they went in to Oholah and Oholibah, the sinful women.

45 O o ragga xaqa ahu waxay iyaga u xukumi doonaan sida dhillooyin iyo naago dhiig galay loo xukumo oo kale, maxaa yeelay, iyagu waa dhillooyin, oo gacmahoodana dhiig baa ku yaal.

But men who are right and good will punish them as women are punished who do sex sins and kill, because they are sinful women and blood is on their hands.

46 W aayo, Sayidka Rabbiga ahu wuxuu leeyahay, Guuto baan iyaga ku soo kicin doonaa, oo cabsi iyo dhac baan u gacangelin doonaa.

“The Lord God says, ‘Bring up a group against them to fill them with fear and to rob them.

47 O o guutadaasu iyagay dhagxin doontaa oo seefaf ku kala jarjari doontaa, oo wiilashooda iyo gabdhahoodaba way wada layn doonaan, oo guryahoodana dab bay ku gubi doonaan.

The group will kill them with stones and with swords. They will kill their sons and daughters and burn down their houses.

48 O o sidaasaan shar dalka uga joojin doonaa, si naagaha oo dhan loo baro inaanay mar dambe sidii sharkiinnii oo kale u falin.

So I will put an end to sex sins in the land, that all women will learn of the danger and not sin as you have done.

49 O o sharkiinnii waa laydinka abaalmarin doonaa, oo dembiyadii sanamyadiinna ayaad xambaaran doontaan, oo markaasaad ogaan doontaan inaan anigu ahay Sayidka Rabbiga ah.

You will suffer the penalty for your sex sins and for worshiping your false gods. Then you will know that I am the Lord God.’”
