¹The word of Yahweh came to me, saying,

¹Oo haddana Eraygii Rabbiga ayaa ii yimid isagoo leh,

²Son of man, set your face toward Jerusalem, and drop your word toward the sanctuaries, and prophesy against the land of Israel;

²Wiilka Aadamow, wejigaaga xagga Yeruusaalem u sii jeedi, oo hadal xagga meelaha quduuska ah ka gees ah ku hadal, oo waxaad wax ka sii sheegtaa dalka reer binu Israa'iil.

³and tell the land of Israel, Thus says Yahweh: Behold, I am against you, and will draw forth my sword out of its sheath, and will cut off from you the righteous and the wicked.

³Oo waxaad dalka reer binu Israa'iil ku tidhaahdaa, Rabbigu wuxuu leeyahay, Bal eeg, anigu col baan kugu ahaye, oo intaan seeftayda galkeeda ka soo bixiyo ayaan kan xaqa ah iyo sharrowgaba kaa baabbi'in doonaa.

⁴Seeing then that I will cut off from you the righteous and the wicked, therefore shall my sword go forth out of its sheath against all flesh from the south to the north:

⁴Seeftaydu intay galkeeda ka soo baxdo ayay wada baabbi'in doontaa binu-aadmiga oo dhan tan iyo koonfur iyo ilaa woqooyi inta ka dhex leh, maxaa yeelay, anigu waxaan markaas kaa baabbi'in doonaa kan xaqa ah iyo sharrowgaba.

⁵and all flesh shall know that I, Yahweh, have drawn forth my sword out of its sheath; it shall not return any more.

⁵Oo binu-aadmiga oo dhammuba waxay wada ogaan doonaan in aniga Rabbiga ahu aan seeftaydii galkeedii ka soo bixiyey, oo mar dambena dib uma ay noqon doonto.

⁶Sigh therefore, you son of man; with the breaking of your thighs and with bitterness you will sigh before their eyes.

⁶Haddaba Wiilka Aadamow, taah. Qalbijab iyo si qadhaadh hortooda ugu taah.

⁷It shall be, when they tell you, Why do you sigh? that you shall say, Because of the news, for it comes; and every heart shall melt, and all hands shall be feeble, and every spirit shall faint, and all knees shall be weak as water: behold, it comes, and it shall be done, says the Lord Yahweh.

⁷Oo markay kugu yidhaahdaan, War maxaad la taahaysaa? waxaad ugu jawaabtaa, Waxaan la taahayaa warka soo socda aawadiis. Qalbi kastaaba waa dhalaali doonaa, oo gacan kastaaba way taag gabi doontaa, oo naf kastaaba way qalbi jabi doontaa, oo qof kasta jilbihiisu sida biyo oo kale ayay u tabaryaraan doonaan. Sayidka Rabbiga ahu wuxuu leeyahay, Bal eega, way soo socotaa, wayna ahaanaysaa.

⁸The word of Yahweh came to me, saying,

⁸Oo haddana Eraygii Rabbiga ayaa ii yimid isagoo leh,

⁹Son of man, prophesy, and say, Thus says Yahweh: Say, A sword, a sword, it is sharpened, and also furbished;

⁹Wiilka Aadamow, wax sii sheeg, oo waxaad tidhaahdaa, Rabbigu wuxuu leeyahay, Waxaad tidhaahdaa, Seef, seef baa la afeeyey, oo weliba waa la safeeyey.

¹⁰it is sharpened that it may make a slaughter; it is furbished that it may be as lightning: shall we then make mirth? the rod of my son, it condemns every tree.

¹⁰Waxaa loo afeeyey inay aad wax u layso, oo waxaa loo safeeyey inay sida hillaac u dhalaasho. Haddaba miyaynu rayraynaa? Usha wiilkaygu waxay quudhsataa geed kasta.

¹¹It is given to be furbished, that it may be handled: the sword, it is sharpened, yes, it is furbished, to give it into the hand of the killer.

¹¹Oo seefta waxaa loo dhiibay in la safeeyo si wax loogu isticmaalo. Seefta waxaa loo soo afeeyey oo loo soo safeeyey in gacanta loo geliyo kan wax laaya.

¹²Cry and wail, son of man; for it is on my people, it is on all the princes of Israel: they are delivered over to the sword with my people; strike therefore on your thigh.

¹²Wiilka Aadamow, qayli oo barooro, waayo, waxay ku kor dhici doontaa dadkayga, oo waxay ku kor dhici doontaa amiirrada reer binu Israa'iil oo dhan. Iyaga iyo dadkaygaba seeftaa loo dhiibay. Haddaba sidaas aawadeed bowdadaada u dharbaax.

¹³For there is a trial; and what if even the rod that condemns shall be no more? says the Lord Yahweh.

¹³Sayidka Rabbiga ahu wuxuu leeyahay, Waxaa jira tijaabin, oo maxaa jiri doona xataa hadday usha wax quudhsata aanay mar dambe sii jiri doonin?

¹⁴You therefore, son of man, prophesy, and strike your hands together; and let the sword be doubled the third time, the sword of the deadly wounded: it is the sword of the great one who is deadly wounded, which enters into their rooms.

¹⁴Haddaba sidaas daraaddeed, Wiilka Aadamow, wax sii sheeg, oo sacabbada isku dhufo. Seeftu saddex jeer ha dhacdo, taasoo ah seefta wax lagu laayo, oo kan weyn laysa oo gelaysa xataa qolladahooda.

¹⁵I have set the threatening sword against all their gates, that their heart may melt, and their stumblings be multiplied: ah! it is made as lightning, it is pointed for slaughter.

¹⁵Seefta ayaan irdahooda oo dhan ku cabsiiyey, si uu qalbigoodu u dhalaalo, oo ay kufiddoodu u sii badato. Sida hillaac baa loo dhalaashay oo waxaa loo safeeyey waxlaynta aawadeed!

¹⁶Gather yourselves together, go to the right, set yourselves in array, go to the left, wherever your face is set.

¹⁶Dadka ururi, xagga midigta u jeeso, dagaal isu diyaari, xagga bidixdana u jeeso, wejigaaga dhinac kasta u jeedi.

¹⁷I will also strike my hands together, and I will cause my wrath to rest: I, Yahweh, have spoken it.

¹⁷Aniguna sacabbadaydaan isku dhufan doonaa, waanan cadhabeeli doonaa. Aniga Rabbiga ah ayaa saas ku hadlay.

¹⁸The word of Yahweh came to me again, saying,

¹⁸Oo haddana Eraygii Rabbiga ayaa ii yimid isagoo leh,

¹⁹Also, you son of man, appoint two ways, that the sword of the king of Babylon may come; they both shall come forth out of one land: and mark out a place, mark it out at the head of the way to the city.

¹⁹Weliba Wiilka Aadamow, waxaad taswiir ku tilmaantaa laba jid oo ay seefta boqorka Baabuloon ku iman karto, oo labadooduba waa inay isku dal ka soo baxaan. Meel ku calaamadee, oo waxaad u yeeshaa calaamad ku taal madaxa jidka magaalada soo gala.

²⁰You shall appoint a way for the sword to come to Rabbah of the children of Ammon, and to Judah in Jerusalem the fortified.

²⁰Waxaad taswiirtaa jid ay seeftu ugu iman karto Rabbaahda reer Cammoon iyo Yeruusaalemta dhufayska leh oo dalka Yahuudah ku dhex taal.

²¹For the king of Babylon stood at the parting of the way, at the head of the two ways, to use divination: he shook the arrows back and forth, he consulted the teraphim, he looked in the liver.

²¹Waayo, boqorkii Baabuloon wuxuu soo istaagay meesha jidadku ku kala leexdaan oo ah labada jid madaxooda inuu faaliyo aawadeed. Fallaadhihiisii wuu ku faaliyey, oo teraafiim ayuu la tashaday, oo beer buu fiiriyey.

²²In his right hand was the divination for Jerusalem, to set battering rams, to open the mouth in the slaughter, to lift up the voice with shouting, to set battering rams against the gates, to cast up mounds, to build forts.

²²Midigtiisa waxaa yiil faalkii Yeruusaalem loo faaliyey, inuu wax lagu jejebiyo dhisto, oo uu afka laynta u furo, oo uu qaylo aad ugu dhawaaqo, oo uu wax lagu jejebiyo irdaha ka hor samaysto, oo uu tuulmo tuulo, oo uu qalcado dhisto.

²³It shall be to them as a false divination in their sight, who have sworn oaths to them; but he brings iniquity to memory, that they may be taken.

²³Oo kuwa dhaarta ku dhaartay waxay hortooda ku noqon doontaa sida faal aan waxtar lahayn oo kale, laakiinse isagu xumaantuu soo xusuusan doonaa, si iyaga lagu qabto aawadeed.

²⁴Therefore thus says the Lord Yahweh: Because you have made your iniquity to be remembered, in that your transgressions are uncovered, so that in all your doings your sins appear; because you have come to memory, you shall be taken with the hand.

²⁴Sidaas daraaddeed Sayidka Rabbiga ahu wuxuu leeyahay, Idinku xumaantiinnii waxaad ka dhigteen in la soo xusuusto, oo saasaa xadgudubyadiinnii loo soo ban dhigay, oo sidaasaa dembiyadiinnu falimihiinna oo dhan uga muuqdaan, maxaa yeelay, waa laydin soo xusuustay, oo sidaas daraaddeed gacantaa laydinku qaban doonaa.

²⁵You, deadly wounded wicked one, the prince of Israel, whose day has come, in the time of the iniquity of the end,

²⁵Oo amiirka reer binu Israa'iil oo nijaasta iyo sharka ah, oo wakhtigiisu hadda yimid marka la ciqaabayow,

²⁶thus says the Lord Yahweh: Remove the turban, and take off the crown; this shall be no more the same; exalt that which is low, and abase that which is high.

²⁶Sayidka Rabbiga ahu wuxuu kugu leeyahay, Duubka iska fur, oo taajka iska qaad. Xaalku sidiisii sii ahaan maayo. Kan hooseeya sarraysii, oo kan sarreeya hoosaysii.

²⁷I will overturn, overturn, overturn it: this also shall be no more, until he come whose right it is; and I will give it him.

²⁷Anigu waan afgembiyi, oo afgembiyi, oo afgembiyi doonaa iyada, oo mar dambena siima ay ahaan doonto, ilaa uu yimaado kan xaqa u lahu, oo isaga ayaan siin doonaa.

²⁸You, son of man, prophesy, and say, Thus says the Lord Yahweh concerning the children of Ammon, and concerning their reproach; and say, A sword, a sword is drawn, for the slaughter it is furbished, to cause it to devour, that it may be as lightning;

²⁸Haddaba Wiilka Aadamow, wax sii sheeg, oo waxaad tidhaahdaa, Sayidka Rabbiga ahu sidaasuu reer Cammoon iyo caydoodaba ka leeyahay. Adigu waxaad tidhaahdaa, Seef, seef baa la soo siibay, oo waxaa loo safeeyey waxlaynta aawadeed, inay sida hillaac u dhalaasho oo ay wax baabbi'iso,

²⁹while they see for you false visions, while they divine lies to you, to lay you on the necks of the wicked who are deadly wounded, whose day has come in the time of the iniquity of the end.

²⁹inta ay wax aan waxba ahayn kuu arkayaan, oo ay wax been ah kugu faaliyaan, si ay kuugu soo kor daadshaan kuwii la laayay oo sharka ahaa, oo wakhtigoodii yimid markii la ciqaabo.

³⁰Cause it to return into its sheath. In the place where you were created, in the land of your birth, will I judge you.

³⁰Galkeedii ha ku noqoto. Anigu waxaan kugu xukumi doonaa meeshii lagugu abuuray iyo dalkii aad ku dhalatay.

³¹I will pour out my indignation on you; I will blow on you with the fire of my wrath; and I will deliver you into the hand of brutish men, skillful to destroy.

³¹Oo waxaan kugu soo kor shubi doonaa dhirifkayga, oo dabkii cadhadayda ayaan kugu soo afuufi doonaa, oo waxaan gacanta kuugu ridi doonaa niman doqonna ah oo aad waxbaabbi'inta u yaqaan.Xaabo baad dabka u noqon doontaa, oo dhiiggaaguna dalkuu dhex oolli doonaa, oo mar dambe laguma soo xusuusan doono, waayo, aniga Rabbiga ah ayaa saas ku hadlay.

³²You shall be for fuel to the fire; your blood shall be in the midst of the land; you shall be remembered no more: for I, Yahweh, have spoken it.

³²Xaabo baad dabka u noqon doontaa, oo dhiiggaaguna dalkuu dhex oolli doonaa, oo mar dambe laguma soo xusuusan doono, waayo, aniga Rabbiga ah ayaa saas ku hadlay.
