1 C iidammadoy, hadda waa inaad isa soo urursataan. Isagu waa inoo hareereeyey. Xaakinka dalka Israa'iil ul bay dhabanka kaga dhufan doonaan.

¶ Now thou shalt be besieged by armies, O daughter of the army: he shall lay siege against us; they shall smite the judge of Israel with a rod upon the cheek.

2 L aakiinse adigu Beytlaxam Efraataahay in kastoo aad ku yar tahay kumanyaalka reer Yahuudah, waxaa adiga iiga kaa soo bixi doona mid dalka Israa'iil taliye ka noqon doona, kaasoo bixitinkiisu ahaa waa hore, iyo tan iyo weligiis.

But thou, Bethlehem Ephratah, though thou be little among the thousands of Judah, yet out of thee shall he come forth unto me that is to be Lord in Israel; and his goings forth are from the beginning, from the days of the ages.

3 H addaba sidaas daraaddeed iyaguu gacangelin doonaa jeeray tan foolanaysa umusho, dabadeedna kuwa walaalihiis ka hadhay waxay ku noqon doonaan dadka Israa'iil.

Therefore he will give them up until the time that she who travails has brought forth; then the remnant of his brethren shall return with the sons of Israel.

4 O o isagu wuu istaagi doonaa, oo wuxuu adhigiisa ku daajin doonaa xoogga Rabbiga iyo haybadda magaca Rabbiga Ilaahiisa ah, oo iyana ammaan bay ku joogi doonaan, waayo, isagu haatan mid weyn buu ku ahaan doonaa tan iyo dhulka darfihiisa.

And he shall stand and feed in the strength of the LORD, in the majesty of the name of the LORD his God; and they shall abide; for now he shall be great unto the ends of the earth.

5 O o kanu wuxuu noqon doonaa nabaddeenna. Samatabbixin Iyo Baabba' Markii kan reer Ashuur uu dalkeenna soo galo, oo uu ku dhex socdo daaraheenna waaweyn, markaasaynu isaga ku kicin doonnaa toddoba adhijir iyo siddeed nin oo madax ah.

And he shall be our peace when the Assyrian shall come into our land: and when he shall tread in our palaces, then we shall raise against him seven shepherds and eight principal men.

6 O o dalka Ashuur seef baa lagu dumin doonaa, oo dalka reer Nimrod waa laga dumin doonaa irdaha laga galo, oo isagu wuxuu inaga samatabbixin doonaa kan reer Ashuur markuu dalkeenna soo galo iyo markuu soohdinteenna dhex maro.

And they shall waste the land of Assyria with the blade, and the land of Nimrod with their swords; and he shall deliver us from the Assyrian when he comes against our land and when he treads within our borders.

7 O o kuwa reer Yacquub ka hadhayna waxay dadyow badan ku dhex ahaan doonaan sidii sayax xagga Rabbiga ka yimid, iyo sidii shuxshux caws ku kor da'ay, kaasoo aan ninna dhawrin, oo aan binu-aadmiga sugin.

¶ And the remnant of Jacob shall be in the midst of many peoples as the dew of the LORD, as the rains upon the grass, which did not expect a man, nor did they expect the sons of men.

8 O o kuwa reer Yacquub ka hadhayna waxay quruumaha dhexdooda iyo dadyow badan dhexbadhtankooda joogi doonaan sidii libaax ku dhex jira xayawaanka kaynta, iyo sidii aaran libaax oo ku dhex jira ido foof ah, kaasoo markuu dhex maraaba ku tunta oo kala jeexjeexda, oo weliba aan la arag mid ka samatabbixiya.

And the remnant of Jacob shall be among the Gentiles in the midst of many peoples as a lion among the beasts of the forest, as a young lion among the flocks of sheep, who, if he goes through and treads down and tears in pieces, there are none that can escape.

9 G acantiinnu ha ka sarrayso cadaawayaashiinna, oo colkiinna oo dhanna ha wada baabbo'o.

Thine hand shall be lifted up upon thine enemies, and all thine adversaries shall be cut off.

10 O o Rabbigu wuxuu leeyahay, Wakhtigaas fardihiinna waan idinka dhex baabbi'in doonaa, oo gaadhifardoodkiinnana waan wada jejebin doonaa.

And it shall come to pass in that day, said the LORD, that I will cause thy horses to be killed out of the midst of thee, and I will cause thy chariots to be destroyed:

11 O o magaalooyinka dalkiinna waan baabbi'in doonaa, oo qalcadihiinnana waan wada dumin doonaa.

and I will cause all the cities of thy land to be destroyed, and I will cause all thy fortresses to be destroyed:

12 O o gacantiinnana sixir waan ka baabbi'in doonaa, oo mar dambena ma lahaan doontaan faaliyayaal.

and I will cause the witchcrafts to be destroyed by thy hand; and no more soothsayers shall be found in thee:

13 O o waxaan dhexdiinna ka baabbi'in doonaa taswiirahiinna xardhan iyo tiirarkiinna, oo mar dambe ma aad caabudi doontaan sancada gacmihiinna.

and I will cause thy graven images and thy images to be destroyed out of the midst of thee; and never again shalt thou worship the work of thine hands.

14 O o dhexbadhtankiinna waan ka rujin doonaa geedihiinna Asheeraah ah, oo magaalooyinkiinnana waan wada dumin doonaa.

And I will pluck up thy groves out of the midst of thee; so will I destroy thy cities.

15 O o quruumihii aan i dhegaysan waxaan kaga aargoosan doonaa xanaaq iyo cadho.

And I will execute vengeance in anger and fury in the Gentiles who have not heard.
