¹The word of Yahweh came to me, saying,

¹Oo haddana eraygii Rabbigu waa ii yimid, isagoo leh,

²“Go, and cry in the ears of Jerusalem, saying, ‘Thus says Yahweh, “I remember for you the kindness of your youth, the love of your weddings; how you went after me in the wilderness, in a land that was not sown.

²Tag oo Yeruusaalem dhegaha kaga qayli, oo waxaad ku tidhaahdaa, Rabbigu wuxuu leeyahay, Waxaan xusuusnahay roonaantii yaraantaada iyo jacaylkii doonanaantaada, markaad igu raaci jirtay cidladii ahayd dal aan waxba lagu beerin.

³Israel was holiness to Yahweh, the first fruits of his increase. All who devour him shall be held guilty. Evil shall come on them,”’ says Yahweh.”

³Reer binu Israa'iil wuxuu Rabbiga u ahaa quduus, iyo midhihii ugu horreeyey ee beergooyskiisii, oo kuwii isaga cunay oo dhammu eed bay lahaayeen, oo masiibo baa iyaga ku soo degtay, ayaa Rabbigu leeyahay.

⁴Hear the word of Yahweh, O house of Jacob, and all the families of the house of Israel!

⁴Reer Yacquub iyo qolooyinka reer binu Israa'iil oo dhammow, bal maqla erayga Rabbiga:

⁵Thus says Yahweh, “What unrighteousness have your fathers found in me, that they have gone far from me, and have walked after vanity, and are become vain?

⁵Rabbigu wuxuu leeyahay, Awowayaashiin maxaa xaqdarro ah oo ay iga heleen oo ay iiga fogaadeen, oo ay waxyaalaha aan waxtarka lahayn u raaceen, oo ay waxmatarayaal u noqdeen?

⁶Neither did they say, ‘Where is Yahweh who brought us up out of the land of Egypt, who led us through the wilderness, through a land of deserts and of pits, through a land of drought and of the shadow of death, through a land that none passed through, and where no man lived?’

⁶Oo iyagu innaba ma ay odhan, Meeh Rabbigii dalka Masar naga soo bixiyey, oo nagu soo hor kacay cidlada dhexdeeda, taasoo ahayd dal lamadegaan ah oo godad badan, iyo dal abaar iyo hooska dhimashada ah, iyo dal aan ciduna dhex marin, iyo meel aan la degin?

⁷I brought you into a plentiful land, to eat its fruit and its goodness; but when you entered, you defiled my land, and made my heritage an abomination.

⁷Oo waxaan idin keenay waddan barwaaqo badan, inaad midhihiisa iyo wanaaggiisa cuntaan, laakiinse markaad soo gasheen ayaad dalkaygii nijaasayseen, oo dhaxalkaygiina waxaad ka dhigteen wax karaahiyo ah.

⁸The priests didn’t say, ‘Where is Yahweh?’ and those who handle the law didn’t know me. The rulers also transgressed against me, and the prophets prophesied by Baal, and walked after things that do not profit.

⁸Wadaaddadii ma ay odhan, Rabbigii meeh? Oo kuwa sharciga hayaana ima ay aqoon, oo taliyayaashiina way igu xadgudbeen, oo nebiyadiina waxay wax ku sii sheegeen Bacal, oo waxay iska daba galeen waxyaalo aan innaba faa'iido lahayn.

⁹“Therefore I will yet contend with you,” says Yahweh, “and I will contend with your children’s children.

⁹Oo sidaas daraaddeed weli waan idinla muddacayaa, oo carruurtiinna carruurtoodana waan la muddici doonaa.

¹⁰For pass over to the islands of Kittim, and see; and send to Kedar, and consider diligently; and see if there has been such a thing.

¹⁰Waayo, bal u gudba xagga gasiiradda Kitiim, oo bal wax eega, oo xagga Qedaarna cid u dira, oo aad u fiirsada, oo bal eega hadday waxaas oo kale halkaas jiraan.

¹¹Has a nation changed its gods, which really are no gods? But my people have changed their glory for that which does not profit.

¹¹Miyey jirtaa quruun beddeshay ilaahyadeed aan ilaahyo ahayn? Laakiinse dadkaygu waxay ammaantoodii ku beddeleen wax aan waxtar lahayn.

¹²“Be astonished, you heavens, at this, and be horribly afraid. Be very desolate,” says Yahweh.

¹²Rabbigu wuxuu leeyahay, Samooyinkow, bal waxan la yaaba, oo aad iyo aad u cabsada, oo haddana aad u gariira.

¹³“For my people have committed two evils: they have forsaken me, the spring of living waters, and cut them out cisterns, broken cisterns, that can hold no water.

¹³Waayo, dadkaygii laba waxyaalood oo shar ah ayay sameeyeen, way iga tageen anigoo ah isha biyaha nool, oo waxay qoteen berkedo daldaloola oo aan innaba biyo celin karin.

¹⁴Is Israel a servant? Is he a native-born slave? Why has he become a prey?

¹⁴Dalka Israa'iil ma addoon baa, mase waa bidde guriga ku dhashay? Maxaa isaga loo kala boobay?

¹⁵The young lions have roared at him, and yelled. They have made his land waste. His cities are burned up, without inhabitant.

¹⁵Libaaxyo qayrabyo ah ayaa ku ciyey, oo codkoodiina way dheereeyeen, oo dalkiisiina way baabbi'iyeen, oo magaalooyinkiisiina way gubteen oo ciduna ma deggana.

¹⁶The children also of Memphis and Tahpanhes have broken the crown of your head.

¹⁶Oo waxaa dhalada kaa jebiyey reer Nof iyo reer Taxfanees.

¹⁷“Haven’t you procured this to yourself, in that you have forsaken Yahweh your God The Hebrew word rendered “God” is “Elohim.” , when he led you by the way?

¹⁷Sow adiga qudhaadu isuma aad keenin belaayadan, waayo, waxaad ka tagtay Rabbiga Ilaahaaga ah markuu jidka kugu hagayay?

¹⁸Now what have you to do in the way to Egypt, to drink the waters of the Shihor? Or what have you to do in the way to Assyria, to drink the waters of the River?

¹⁸Oo haatan bal maxaad ka samaynaysaa jidka Masar inaad cabto biyaha Shiixoor? Amase bal maxaad ka samaynaysaa jidka Ashuur inaad cabto biyaha Webi Yufraad?

¹⁹“Your own wickedness shall correct you, and your backsliding shall reprove you. Know therefore and see that it is an evil thing and a bitter, that you have forsaken Yahweh your God, and that my fear is not in you,” says the Lord, Yahweh of Armies.

¹⁹Haddaba xumaantaada ayaa ku edbin doonta, oo dibunoqoshadaada ayaa ku canaanan doonta. Sayidka ah Rabbiga ciidammadu wuxuu leeyahay, Haddaba bal ogow oo arag inay tahay wax shar ah oo qadhaadh inaad iga tagtay anigoo Rabbiga Ilaahaaga ah, iyo inaadan iga cabsan.

²⁰“For of old time I have broken your yoke, and burst your bonds; and you said, ‘I will not serve;’ for on every high hill and under every green tree you bowed yourself, playing the prostitute.

²⁰Waayo, waa hore ayaad harqoodkaagii jebisay, oo waxaad kala gooysay silsiladihii kugu xidhnaa, oo waxaad tidhi, Anigu kuu adeegi maayo, oo buur kasta oo dheer korkeed iyo geed kasta oo doog ah hoostiis ayaad ku jiifsatay sida dhillo oo kale.

²¹Yet I had planted you a noble vine, wholly a right seed. How then have you turned into the degenerate branches of a foreign vine to me?

²¹Laakiin waxaan kuu beeray canab wacan, oo kulligiis abuur wanaagsan ah, haddaba sidee baad ugu beddelantay inaad igu noqotid canab ba'ay oo qalaad?

²²For though you wash yourself with lye, and use much soap, yet your iniquity is marked before me,” says the Lord Yahweh.

²²Waayo, Sayidka Rabbiga ahu wuxuu leeyahay, In kastoo aad soodhe isku maydhid, oo aad saabuun iska badisid, weli xumaantaadii sida calaamad oo kale bay ii muuqataa.

²³“How can you say, ‘I am not defiled. I have not gone after the Baals’? See your way in the valley. Know what you have done. You are a swift dromedary traversing her ways;

²³Sidee baad u odhan kartaa, Anigu ma nijaasoobin, oo Bacaliimna ma raacin? Bal fiiri socodkii aad dooxada ku martay, oo garo wixii aad samaysay. Waxaad tahay qaalin geel oo dheeraysa oo warwareegta,

²⁴a wild donkey used to the wilderness, that snuffs up the wind in her desire. When she is in heat, who can turn her away? All those who seek her will not weary themselves. In her month, they will find her.

²⁴iyo dameerdibadeed cidlada baratay, oo iyadoo orgoonaysa dabaysha ursanaysa. Yaa damaceeda ka celin kara? Oo kuwa iyada doonaya oo dhammuna isma ay daalin doonaan, waayo, iyaday bisheeda heli doonaan.

²⁵“Withhold your foot from being unshod, and your throat from thirst. But you said, ‘It is in vain. No, for I have loved strangers, and I will go after them.’

²⁵Cagahaaga kabola'aan ka dhawr, oo hungurigaagana harraad ka dhawr, laakiinse waxaad tidhi, Rajo ma leh innaba, waayo, waxaan jeclaaday shisheeyayaal, oo iyagaan iska daba gelayaa.

²⁶As the thief is ashamed when he is found, so is the house of Israel ashamed; they, their kings, their princes, and their priests, and their prophets;

²⁶Siduu tuug markii la qabto u ceeboobo oo kale ayay reer binu Israa'iil u ceeboobeen, iyaga, iyo boqorradooda, iyo amiirradooda, iyo wadaaddadooda, iyo nebiyadooduba,

²⁷who tell wood, ‘You are my father;’ and a stone, ‘You have brought me out:’ for they have turned their back to me, and not their face; but in the time of their trouble they will say, ‘Arise, and save us.’

²⁷kuwaasoo geed ku yidhaahda, Waxaad tahay aabbahay, oo dhagaxna ku yidhaahda, Adigaa i dhalay. Dhabarkay ii soo jeediyeen, wejigiina way iga sii jeediyeen, laakiinse wakhtigii ay dhibaataysan yihiin waxay i odhan doonaan, Kac oo na badbaadi.

²⁸“But where are your gods that you have made for yourselves? Let them arise, if they can save you in the time of your trouble: for according to the number of your cities are your gods, Judah.

²⁸Laakiinse meeye ilaahyadaadii aad samaysatay? Iyagu ha keceen hadday ku badbaadin karaan wakhtigii aad dhibaataysan tahay, waayo, dadka Yahuudah ahow, ilaahyadiinnu waxay tiro le'eg yihiin magaalooyinkiinna.

²⁹“Why will you contend with me? You all have transgressed against me,” says Yahweh.

²⁹Sidaas daraaddeed Rabbigu wuxuu leeyahay, Bal maxaad iila muddacaysaan? Waayo, idinku kulligiin waad iga gudubteen.

³⁰“I have struck your children in vain. They received no correction. Your own sword has devoured your prophets, like a destroying lion.

³⁰Anigu waxtarla'aan baan carruurtiinnii u dilay, iyaguse innaba kuma ay waano qaadan. Seeftiinnii ayaa nebiyadiinnii baabbi'isay sidii libaax wax baabbi'inaya oo kale.

³¹Generation, consider the word of Yahweh. Have I been a wilderness to Israel? Or a land of thick darkness? Why do my people say, ‘We have broken loose. We will come to you no more?’

³¹Dadka qarniganow, bal erayga Rabbiga ka fiirsada. Reer binu Israa'iil ma waxaan u ahaa cidlo ama dal gudcur ah? Haddaba bal maxaa dadkaygu u yidhaahdaan, Xor baannu nahay, oo mar dambe kuu iman mayno?

³²“Can a virgin forget her ornaments, or a bride her attire? Yet my people have forgotten me for days without number.

³²Gabadhu miyey illoobi kartaa wixii ay isku sharaxdo, aroosadduse miyey illoobi kartaa wixii ay xidhato? Laakiinse dadkaygu waxay i illoobeen maalmo badan oo aan la tirin karin.

³³How well you prepare your way to seek love! Therefore you have taught even the wicked women your ways.

³³Sidee baad jidkaaga u hagaajisaa markaad caashaq doondoonto? Sidaas daraaddeed xataa naagaha xunxunna jidadkaagaad bartay.

³⁴Also the blood of the souls of the innocent poor is found in your skirts. You did not find them breaking in; but it is because of all these things.

³⁴Oo weliba darfaha dharkaagana waxaa laga helaa dhiiggii masaakiinta aan xaqa qabin, sababtuna ma aha inaad heshay iyagoo guriga dhacaya, laakiinse waa waxyaalahaas oo dhan daraaddood.

³⁵“Yet you said, ‘I am innocent. Surely his anger has turned away from me.’ “Behold, I will judge you, because you say, ‘I have not sinned.’

³⁵Oo weliba waxaad istidhaahdaa, Anigu xaq ma qabo. Sida xaqiiqada ah cadhadiisu way iga noqotay. Bal ogow, anigu waan kula muddici doonaaye, maxaa yeelay, waxaad tidhaahdaa, Anigu ma aan dembaabin.

³⁶Why do you go about so much to change your way? You will be ashamed of Egypt also, as you were ashamed of Assyria.

³⁶Maxaad u warwareegtaa si aad jidadkaaga u beddesho? Ceeb baa dalka Masar kaaga iman doonta siday dalka Ashuur kaaga timid oo kale.Oo weliba isagana waad ka soo bixi doontaa, adigoo gacmahu madaxa kuu saaran yihiin, waayo, Rabbigu waa diiday kuwa aad ku kalsoon tahay oo dhan, oo iyaga innaba ku dhex liibaani maysid.

³⁷From there also you shall go forth, with your hands on your head; for Yahweh has rejected those in whom you trust, and you shall not prosper with them.

³⁷Oo weliba isagana waad ka soo bixi doontaa, adigoo gacmahu madaxa kuu saaran yihiin, waayo, Rabbigu waa diiday kuwa aad ku kalsoon tahay oo dhan, oo iyaga innaba ku dhex liibaani maysid.
