¹For, lo, the Lord, Jehovah of Hosts, Is turning aside from Jerusalem, And from Judah, stay and staff, Every stay of bread, and every stay of water.

¹Waayo, bal eega, Sayidka ciidammada ahu wuxuu Yeruusaalem iyo dalka Yahuudah ka qaadayaa tiirka iyo waxa la cuskado, xataa tiirka cuntada oo dhan, iyo tiirka biyaha oo dhan,

²Hero and man of war, judge and prophet, And diviner and elder,

²iyo ninka xoogga badan, iyo ninka dagaalyahanka ah, iyo xaakinka, iyo nebiga, iyo waxsheegaha, iyo odayga,

³Head of fifty, and accepted of faces, And counsellor, and the wise of artificers, And the intelligent of charmers.

³iyo sirkaalka konton u taliya, iyo ninka sharafta leh, iyo lataliyaha, iyo saanaca, iyo saaxirka.

⁴And I have made youths their heads, And sucklings rule over them.

⁴Oo waxaan amiirro uga dhigi doonaa carruur, oo dhallaan baa iyaga u talin doona.

⁵And the people hath exacted — man upon man, Even a man on his neighbour, Enlarge themselves do the youths against the aged, And the lightly esteemed against the honoured.

⁵Oo dadkana midkood kastaba waxaa dulmi doona mid kale, oo mid kastaba waxaa dulmi doona deriskiisa, yarku wuxuu ku kibri doonaa odayga, oo kan hoosena kan sharafta leh.

⁶When one layeth hold on his brother, [Of] the house of his father, [by] the garment, `Come, a ruler thou art to us, And this ruin [is] under thy hand.`

⁶Oo markaas nin wuxuu soo qaban doonaa walaalkiis oo jooga gurigii aabbihiis, oo wuxuu ku odhan doonaa, Adigu waxaad leedahay dhar, haddaba taliye noo noqo oo waxan burburka ahuna ha kaa hooseeyo.

⁷He lifteth up, in that day, saying: `I am not a binder up, And in my house is neither bread nor garment, Ye do not make me a ruler of the people.`

⁷Maalintaasba wuu dhawaaqi doonaa, oo wuxuu odhan doonaa, Anigu bogsiiye noqon maayo, maxaa yeelay, gurigayga dhar iyo dhuuni midna laguma arko, haddaba dadka taliye ha iiga dhigina.

⁸For stumbled hath Jerusalem, and Judah hath fallen, For their tongue and their doings [are] against Jehovah, To provoke the eyes of His glory.

⁸Waayo, Yeruusaalem waa duntay, oo dadka Yahuudahna waa dheceen, maxaa yeelay, hadalkooda iyo falimahooduba waxay col ku yihiin Rabbiga, oo indhihiisa ammaanta leh ayay ka cadhaysiiyaan.

⁹The appearance of their faces witnessed against them, And their sin, as Sodom, they declared, They have not hidden! Wo to their soul, For they have done to themselves evil.

⁹Muuqashada wejigooda ayaa iyaga ku marag furta oo dembigoodana way u sheegaan sidii dadkii Sodom oo kale, oo innaba ma ay qarsadaan. Naftoodaa hoogtay! Waayo, xumaan bay isu keeneen.

¹⁰Say ye to the righteous, that [it is] good, Because the fruit of their doings they eat.

¹⁰Waxaad sheegtaan inuu kan xaqa ah barwaaqaysnaan doono, waayo, iyagu waxay cuni doonaan midhihii falimahooda.

¹¹Wo to the wicked — evil, Because the deed of his hand is done to him.

¹¹Waxaa hoogay kan sharka ah, waayo, belaayaa ku dhici doonta, oo waxaa loo samayn doonaa wixii gacmihiisu sameeyeen oo kale.

¹²My people — its exactors [are] sucklings, And women have ruled over it. My people — thy eulogists are causing to err, And the way of thy paths swallowed up.

¹²Laakiinse waxaa dulma dadkayga carruur, oo dumar baa iyaga u taliya. Dadkaygow, hoggaamiyayaashaadu way ku qaldaan, oo waxay kharribaan jidkaaga aad ku socoto.

¹³Jehovah hath stood up to plead, And He is standing to judge the peoples.

¹³Rabbigu wuxuu u sara joogaa inuu doodo, oo wuxuu u taagan yahay inuu dadka xukumo.

¹⁴Jehovah into judgment doth enter With elders of His people, and its heads: `And ye, ye have consumed the vineyard, Plunder of the poor [is] in your houses.

¹⁴Rabbigu wuxuu dacwad la geli doonaa odayaasha iyo amiirrada dadkiisa. Waa idinka kuwa dhammaystay beercanabka, wixii aad masaakiinta ka soo dhacdeenna guryihiinnay ku dhex jiraan.

¹⁵What — to you? ye bruise My people, And the faces of the poor ye grind.` An affirmation of the Lord, Jehovah of Hosts, And Jehovah saith:

¹⁵Sayidka ah Rabbiga ciidammadu wuxuu leeyahay, War maxaad ula jeeddaan dadkayga aad burburinaysaan iyo masaakiinta aad wejigooda duqaynaysaan?

¹⁶`Because that daughters of Zion have been haughty, And they walk stretching out the neck, And deceiving [with] the eyes, Walking and mincing they go, And with their feet they make a tinkling,

¹⁶Oo weliba Rabbigu wuxuu yidhi, Gabdhaha Siyoon waa kibirsan yihiin, oo waxay socdaan iyagoo madax taagan oo indhaha ku baaqaya, oo qaadaya tallaabooyin yaryar oo degdeg ah, dugaagadaha cagahana way ka shanqadhiyaan,

¹⁷The Lord also hath scabbed The crown of the head of daughters of Zion, And Jehovah their simplicity exposeth.

¹⁷haddaba sidaas daraaddeed gabdhaha Siyoon madaxooda dhaladiisa Sayidku wuxuu u yeeli doonaa canbaar, oo wuxuu muujin doonaa cawradooda.

¹⁸In that day doth the Lord turn aside The beauty of the tinkling ornaments, And of the embroidered works, And of the round tires like moons,

¹⁸Oo maalintaas Sayidku wuxuu iyaga ka qaadi doonaa quruxda dugaagadaha cagahooda, iyo shabagyada timaha, iyo bilaha,

¹⁹Of the drops, and the bracelets, and the mufflers,

¹⁹iyo waxa dhegaha la sudho, iyo sindiyada, iyo indhashareeryada,

²⁰Of the bonnets, and the ornaments of the legs, And of the bands, And of the perfume boxes, and the amulets,

²⁰iyo waxa madaxa lagu sharraxo, iyo silsiladaha lugaha, iyo waxa madaxa lagu xidho, iyo weelasha cadarka, iyo qardhaasaha,

²¹Of the seals, and of the nose-rings,

²¹iyo kaatummada, iyo sangelisyada,

²²Of the costly apparel, and of the mantles, And of the coverings, and of the purses,

²²iyo dharka lagu iido, iyo shaadirrada, iyo go'yaasha, iyo boorsooyinka,

²³Of the mirrors, and of the linen garments, And of the hoods, and of the vails,

²³iyo muraayadaha, iyo dharka wanaagsan, iyo garbasaarrada, iyo gambooyinka.

²⁴And it hath been, instead of spice is muck, And instead of a girdle, a rope, And instead of curled work, baldness, And instead of a stomacher a girdle of sackcloth.

²⁴Oo waxay noqon doontaa in meeshii ay ka carfi jireen ay ka qudhmuunaan doonaan, oo meeshii ay dhex-xidh ka xidhan jireenna xadhig bay dhexda ku xidhan doonaan, oo meeshii ay timo wanaagsan ka lahaayeenna waa looga xiiri doonaa, oo meeshii ay maro wanaagsan ka guntan jireenna, joonyad bay ka guntan doonaan, oo meeshii ay quruxda ka lahaayeenna waa laga sunti doonaa.

²⁵For instead of glory, thy men by sword do fall, And thy might in battle.

²⁵Raggaagu wuxuu ku le'an doonaa seefta, oo kuwaaga xoogga badanuna waxay ku le'an doonaan dagaalka.Oo Siyoon irdaheeduna way ooyi doonaan oo ay barooran doonaan, oo iyadoo cidla ah ayay dhulka fadhiisan doontaa.

²⁶And lamented and mourned have her openings, Yea, she hath been emptied, on the earth she sitteth!

²⁶Oo Siyoon irdaheeduna way ooyi doonaan oo ay barooran doonaan, oo iyadoo cidla ah ayay dhulka fadhiisan doontaa.
