¹Woe to the shepherds who destroy and scatter the sheep of my pasture! says Yahweh.

¹Rabbigu wuxuu leeyahay, Waxaa iska hoogay adhijirrada idihii daaqsintayda baabbi'iya oo kala firdhiya!

²Therefore thus says Yahweh, the God of Israel, against the shepherds who feed my people: You have scattered my flock, and driven them away, and have not visited them; behold, I will visit on you the evil of your doings, says Yahweh.

²Sidaas daraaddeed Rabbiga ah Ilaaha reer binu Israa'iil wuxuu ka leeyahay adhijirrada dadkayga daajiya, Adhigaygii waad kala firdhiseen, waadna kala erideen, oo soomana aydnaan ilaalin. Bal eega, waxaan idiin ciqaabi doonaa sharkii falimihiinna, ayaa Rabbigu leeyahay.

³I will gather the remnant of my flock out of all the countries where I have driven them, and will bring them again to their folds; and they shall be fruitful and multiply.

³Oo intii adhigayga ka hadhayna waxaan ka soo wada ururin doonaa waddammadii aan u kexeeyey oo dhan, waanan ku soo celin doonaa xeryahoodii, oo wax badan way dhali doonaan, wayna tarmi doonaan.

⁴I will set up shepherds over them, who shall feed them; and they shall fear no more, nor be dismayed, neither shall any be lacking, says Yahweh.

⁴Oo waxaan iyaga u yeeli doonaa adhijirro daajiya, oo mar dambe ma ay baqi doonaan, mana ay nixi doonaan, oo innaba midna kama dhimmanaan doono.

⁵Behold, the days come, says Yahweh, that I will raise to David a righteous Branch, and he shall reign as king and deal wisely, and shall execute justice and righteousness in the land.

⁵Rabbigu wuxuu leeyahay, Bal eega, waxaa soo socda wakhti aan Daa'uud u kicin doono biqil xaq ah, oo boqor ayuu ahaan doonaa, wuuna liibaani doonaa, oo wuxuu dhulka ku samayn doonaa caddaalad iyo xaqnimo.

⁶In his days Judah shall be saved, and Israel shall dwell safely; and this is his name by which he shall be called: Yahweh our righteousness.

⁶Oo wakhtigiisa dadka Yahuudah way badbaadi doonaan, oo dadka Israa'iilna ammaan bay ku degganaan doonaan, oo magiciisa lagu magacaabi doonona waa Rabbiga Xaqnimadayada ah.

⁷Therefore behold, the days come, says Yahweh, that they shall no more say, As Yahweh lives, who brought up the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt;

⁷Sidaas daraaddeed Rabbigu wuxuu leeyahay, Bal ogaada, waxaa soo socda wakhti aan mar dambe la odhan doonin, Waxaa nool Rabbigii reer binu Israa'iil dalkii Masar ka soo bixiyey.

⁸but, As Yahweh lives, who brought up and who led the seed of the house of Israel out of the north country, and from all the countries where I had driven them. They shall dwell in their own land.

⁸Laakiinse waxaa la odhan doonaa, Waxaa nool Rabbigii farcankii reer binu Israa'iil ka soo bixiyey oo ka soo hor kacay dalkii woqooyi, iyo dalalkii uu u kexeeyey oo dhan, oo iyana waxay degganaan doonaan dalkooda.

⁹Concerning the prophets. My heart within me is broken, all my bones shake; I am like a drunken man, and like a man whom wine has overcome, because of Yahweh, and because of his holy words.

⁹Qalbigaygii uurkayguu ku qarracmay waana nebiyada daraaddood, lafahayga oo dhammu way wada ruxmadaan, oo waxaan la mid ahay nin sakhraan ah oo khamri ka adkaaday, waana Rabbiga iyo erayadiisa quduuska ah daraaddood.

¹⁰For the land is full of adulterers; for because of swearing the land mourns; the pastures of the wilderness are dried up. Their course is evil, and their might is not right;

¹⁰Dalka waxaa ka buuxa dhillayo, oo habaar daraaddiis ayaa dalkii la barooranayaa. Daaqsimihii duurku way wada engegeen. Socodkoodu waa shar oo xooggooduna ma qummana.

¹¹for both prophet and priest are profane; yes, in my house have I found their wickedness, says Yahweh.

¹¹Waayo, Rabbigu wuxuu leeyahay, Nebigii iyo wadaadkiiba nijaas bay wada yihiin, oo gurigayga ayaan xumaantoodii ka helay.

¹²Therefore their way shall be to them as slippery places in the darkness: they shall be driven on, and fall therein; for I will bring evil on them, even the year of their visitation, says Yahweh.

¹²Sidaas daraaddeed jidkoodu wuxuu u noqon doonaa sida meelo sibiibix ah oo gudcur ku dhex yaal. Iyaga waa lagu sii kaxayn doonaa oo halkaasay ku dhici doonaan, waayo, sannadda ciqaabiddooda masiibo baan ku soo dayn doonaa, ayaa Rabbigu leeyahay.

¹³I have seen folly in the prophets of Samaria; they prophesied by Baal, and caused my people Israel to err.

¹³Oo nebiyada Samaariyana nacasnimaan ku arkay. Waxay wax ku sii sheegeen Bacal magiciisa, oo dadkaygii reer binu Israa'iilna way qaldeen.

¹⁴In the prophets of Jerusalem also I have seen a horrible thing: they commit adultery, and walk in lies; and they strengthen the hands of evildoers, so that none does return from his wickedness: they are all of them become to me as Sodom, and its inhabitants as Gomorrah.

¹⁴Oo nebiyadii Yeruusaalemna wax aad iyo aad u xun, baan ku arkay. Way sinaystaan, oo been bay ku socdaan, oo weliba waxay sii xoogeeyaan gacmaha xumaanfalayaasha, si aan midnaba xumaantiisa uga soo noqon. Iyagu kulligood waxay iila mid noqdeen sidii Sodom, oo kuwii degganaana sidii Gomora oo kale.

¹⁵Therefore thus says Yahweh of Armies concerning the prophets: Behold, I will feed them with wormwood, and make them drink the water of gall; for from the prophets of Jerusalem is ungodliness gone forth into all the land.

¹⁵Sidaas daraaddeed Rabbiga ciidammadu wuxuu nebiyada ka leeyahay, Bal ogaada, waxaan iyaga ku quudin doonaa dacar, oo waxaan cabsiin doonaa biyo xammeetiyeed, waayo, nijaas baa nebiyada Yeruusaalem ka soo faaftay oo waxay wada gaadhay dalka oo dhan.

¹⁶Thus says Yahweh of Armies, Don’t listen to the words of the prophets who prophesy to you: they teach you vanity; they speak a vision of their own heart, and not out of the mouth of Yahweh.

¹⁶Rabbiga ciidammadu wuxuu leeyahay, Nebiyada wax idiin sii sheega hadalkooda ha maqlina, waayo, wax aan waxba ahayn way idin baraan, oo waxay ku hadlaan riyo qalbigooda ka timid oo aan afka Rabbiga ka soo bixin.

¹⁷They say continually to those who despise me, Yahweh has said, You shall have peace; and to everyone who walks in the stubbornness of his own heart they say, No evil shall come on you.

¹⁷Oo waxay had iyo goorba kuwa i quudhsada ku yidhaahdaan, Rabbigu wuxuu yidhi, Nabad baad helaysaan. Oo waxay mid kasta oo caasinimada qalbigiisa daba galana ku yidhaahdaan, Wax masiibo ahu innaba kugu dhici maayaan.

¹⁸For who has stood in the council of Yahweh, that he should perceive and hear his word? who has marked my word, and heard it?

¹⁸Waayo, bal yaa guddiga Rabbiga dhex istaagay inuu garto oo maqlo eraygiisa? Yaase eraygiisa dhegta u dhigay oo soo maqlay?

¹⁹Behold, the storm of Yahweh, his wrath, has gone forth. Yes, a whirling storm. It shall burst on the head of the wicked.

¹⁹Bal eega, duufaankii Rabbiga ayaa soo baxay, kaasoo ah cadhadiis, waana dabayl cirwareen ah, oo waxay ku dhici doontaa madaxa sharrowyada.

²⁰The anger of Yahweh shall not return, until he has executed, and until he have performed the intents of his heart: in the latter days you shall understand it perfectly.

²⁰Rabbiga xanaaqiisu dib u noqon maayo jeeruu sameeyo oo wada oofiyo qastiga qalbigiisa, oo ugudambaystana aad baad u garan doontaan.

²¹I sent not these prophets, yet they ran: I didn’t speak to them, yet they prophesied.

²¹Anigu nebiyadaas sooma aan dirin, laakiinse way ordeen oo iyaga lama aan hadlin, laakiinse wax bay sii sheegeen.

²²But if they had stood in my council, then had they caused my people to hear my words, and had turned them from their evil way, and from the evil of their doings.

²²Haddii ay guddigayga dhex istaageen, de markaas dadkaygay erayadayda maqashiin lahaayeen, oo waxay iyaga ka soo celin lahaayeen jidkooda xun iyo sharka falimahoodaba.

²³Am I a God at hand, says Yahweh, and not a God afar off?

²³Rabbigu wuxuu leeyahay, Anigu ma waxaan ahay Ilaah dhow, oo miyaanan ahayn Ilaah fog?

²⁴Can any hide himself in secret places so that I shall not see him? says Yahweh. Don’t I fill heaven and earth? says Yahweh.

²⁴Rabbigu wuxuu leeyahay, Miyaa cidi isku qarin kartaa meelo qarsoon oo aanan ka arki karin? Waxaa kaluu Rabbigu leeyahay, Anigu sow kama buuxo cirka iyo dhulkaba?

²⁵I have heard what the prophets have said, who prophesy lies in my name, saying, I have dreamed, I have dreamed.

²⁵Waan maqlay wixii ay yidhaahdeen nebiyada magacayga beenta ku sii sheega oo yidhaahda, Waan riyooday, waan riyooday.

²⁶How long shall this be in the heart of the prophets who prophesy lies, even the prophets of the deceit of their own heart?

²⁶Ilaa goormay waxanu ku sii jirayaan qalbiga nebiyada beenta sii sheega? Iyagu waa nebiyo sii sheega khiyaanada qalbigooda.

²⁷who think to cause my people to forget my name by their dreams which they tell every man to his neighbor, as their fathers forgot my name for Baal.

²⁷Waxay u malaynayaan inay dadkayga magacayga ku illowsiiyaan riyooyinkooda midkood kastaba uu deriskiisa u sheego, sidii awowayaashoodba ay magacayga ugu illoobeen Bacal aawadiis.

²⁸The prophet who has a dream, let him tell a dream; and he who has my word, let him speak my word faithfully. What is the straw to the wheat? says Yahweh.

²⁸Rabbigu wuxuu leeyahay, Nebigii riyo arkay, riyadiisa ha sheego, oo kii eraygayga maqlayna si daacad ah eraygayga ha u sheego. Buunshaha iyo sarreenka bal maxaa u kala dhexeeya?

²⁹Isn’t my word like fire? says Yahweh; and like a hammer that breaks the rock in pieces?

²⁹Rabbigu wuxuu leeyahay, Miyaan eraygaygu ahayn sida dab oo kale, iyo sida dubbe dhagaxa kala burburiya oo kale?

³⁰Therefore behold, I am against the prophets, says Yahweh, who steal my words everyone from his neighbor.

³⁰Sidaas daraaddeed Rabbigu wuxuu leeyahay, Bal ogaada, anigu waxaan col ku ahay nebiyada midkood kastaba erayadayda ka xada deriskiisa.

³¹Behold, I am against the prophets, says Yahweh, who use their tongues, and say, He says.

³¹Rabbigu wuxuu leeyahay, Bal ogaada, col baan ku ahay nebiyada carrabkooda ku isticmaala oo yidhaahda, Saasuu Rabbigu leeyahay.

³²Behold, I am against those who prophesy lying dreams, says Yahweh, and do tell them, and cause my people to err by their lies, and by their vain boasting: yet I didn’t send them, nor commanded them; neither do they profit this people at all, says Yahweh.

³²Rabbigu wuxuu leeyahay, Bal ogaada, col baan ku ahay kuwa wax ku sii sheega riyooyin been ah, oo intay u warramaan dadkayga ku qalda beentooda iyo faankooda aan waxtarka lahayn. Rabbigu waxaa kaluu leeyahay, Anigu iyaga ma soo dirin, oo innaba mana amrin, oo iyagu dadkan waxba kuma tari doonaan.

³³When this people, or the prophet, or a priest, shall ask you, saying, What is the burden of Yahweh? Then you shall tell them, What burden! I will cast you off, says Yahweh.

³³Oo markii dadkan ama nebi ama wadaad uu ku weyddiiyo, oo uu kugu yidhaahdo, Rabbiga warkiisa culus waa maxay? Waxaad iyaga ku tidhaahdaa, Waa war maxay ah? Waan idin xoorayaa, ayaa Rabbigu leeyahay.

³⁴As for the prophet, and the priest, and the people, who shall say, The burden of Yahweh, I will even punish that man and his house.

³⁴Oo weliba nebigii iyo wadaadkii iyo dadkii odhan doona, Waa kan warka culus ee Rabbiga, ninkaas iyo reerkiisaba waan ciqaabi doonaa.

³⁵You shall say everyone to his neighbor, and everyone to his brother, What has Yahweh answered? and, What has Yahweh spoken?

³⁵Midkiin kastaaba wuxuu deriskiisa ku odhan doonaa, oo midkiin kastaaba wuxuu walaalkiis ku odhan doonaa, Muxuu Rabbigu ku jawaabay? Oo muxuu Rabbigu ku hadlay?

³⁶You shall mention the burden of Yahweh no more: for every man’s own word shall be his burden; for you have perverted the words of the living God, of Yahweh of Armies our God.

³⁶Oo Rabbiga warkiisa culusna mar dambe kama aad hadli doontaan, waayo, nin walba eraygiisaa war culus u noqon doona, maxaa yeelay, idinku waxaad qalloociseen erayadii Ilaaha nool oo ah Rabbiga ciidammada oo ah Ilaahayaga.

³⁷You shall say to the prophet, What has Yahweh answered you? and, What has Yahweh spoken?

³⁷Waxaad nebiga ku tidhaahdaa, Muxuu Rabbigu kuugu jawaabay? Oo muxuu Rabbigu ku hadlay?

³⁸But if you say, The burden of Yahweh; therefore thus says Yahweh: Because you say this word, The burden of Yahweh, and I have sent to you, saying, You shall not say, The burden of Yahweh;

³⁸Laakiinse haddaad tidhaahdaan, Waa warka culus ee Rabbiga, Rabbigu wuxuu idinku leeyahay, Idinku waxaad tidhaahdaan erayadan oo ah, Waa warka culus ee Rabbiga, oo sidaas daraaddeed baan idiinku soo cid diray anigoo idinku leh, Waa inaadan odhan, Waa warka culus ee Rabbiga.

³⁹therefore, behold, I will utterly forget you, and I will cast you off, and the city that I gave to you and to your fathers, away from my presence:

³⁹Sidaas daraaddeed bal ogaada, Aniga qudhayda ayaa giddigiin idin illoobi doona, waanan idin xoori doonaa idinka iyo magaaladii aan idinka iyo awowayaashiinba siiyey, oo hortaydana waan idinka fogayn doonaa.Oo waxaan idinku soo dejin doonaa cay aan weligeed idinka hadhayn, iyo ceeb had iyo goorba idinku dul waaraysa, oo aan marnaba la illoobayn.

⁴⁰and I will bring an everlasting reproach on you, and a perpetual shame, which shall not be forgotten.

⁴⁰Oo waxaan idinku soo dejin doonaa cay aan weligeed idinka hadhayn, iyo ceeb had iyo goorba idinku dul waaraysa, oo aan marnaba la illoobayn.
