1The burden of the valley of vision. What ails you now, that you have all gone up to the housetops?
1 Bangandiyaŋ gooro boŋ sanni neeya: Ifo ka du nin sohõ kaŋ araŋ jama kulu kaaru cinarey boŋ?
2You that are full of shouting, a tumultuous city, a joyous town; your slain are not slain with the sword, neither are they dead in battle.
2 Ya nin, gallu kusuumakoy kaŋ to da kosongu, Nin, faada kaŋ ga farhã, Ni borey kaŋ i wi kulu, manti takuba no k'i wi, Manti mo wongu ra no i bu bo.
3All your rulers fled away together. They were bound by the archers. All who were found by you were bound together. They fled far away.
3 Ni mayraykoyey kulu, care banda no i zuru, Tongo koyey no k'i haw. Ni borey kulu kaŋ i di, i n'i haw care gaa, Baa kaŋ i zuru ka koy nangu mooro.
4Therefore I said, “Look away from me. I will weep bitterly. Don’t labor to comfort me for the destruction of the daughter of my people.
4 Woodin sabbay se no ay ne: «Ma ni mo kaa ay do haray. Naŋ ay ma hẽeni korno te. Ma si kookari ka ne ni g'ay suurandi ay jama ize wayo halaciyaŋo sabbay se.»
5For it is a day of confusion, and of treading down, and of perplexity, from the Lord, Yahweh of Armies, in the valley of vision; a breaking down of the walls, and a crying to the mountains.”
5 Zama kosongu da taamu-taamuyaŋ da boŋ haway hane no kaŋ fun Rabbi do, A fun Rabbi Kundeykoyo do bangandiyaŋ gooro ra. Wongu ga birni cinarey bagu-bagu, Borey kuuwa ga koy tondi kuukey do.
6Elam carried his quiver, with chariots of men and horsemen; and Kir uncovered the shield.
6 Elam go ga tonga jare, A gonda wongu torkoyaŋ da boroyaŋ da bari-kariyaŋ. Cir mo na koray feeri.
7It happened that your choicest valleys were full of chariots, and the horsemen set themselves in array at the gate.
7 A ciya mo ni gooru suubanantey to da wongu torkoyaŋ, Bari-karey mo na daaga sinji birni meyo gaa.
8He took away the covering of Judah; and you looked in that day to the armor in the house of the forest.
8 Rabbi na Yahuda kosara kaa a gaa. Ni mo, han din hane ni naanay wongu jinay gaa, Kaŋ yaŋ go tuuri zugay faada ra.
9You saw the breaches of the city of David, that they were many; and you gathered together the waters of the lower pool.
9 Araŋ di kaŋ Dawda gallo kortimey ga baa gumo. Araŋ na ganda bango haro margu-margu nangu folloŋ.
10You numbered the houses of Jerusalem, and you broke down the houses to fortify the wall.
10 Araŋ na Urusalima windey kabu, Araŋ na windi fooyaŋ zeeri ka birni cinaro gaabandi nd'ey.
11You also made a reservoir between the two walls for the water of the old pool. But you didn’t look to him who had done this, neither did you have respect for him who purposed it long ago.
11 Araŋ na guusu fansi mo birni cinari hinka nda care game ra, Zama araŋ ma waato bango haro jisi a ra. Amma Bora kaŋ na goy woodin te, araŋ mana naanay a gaa. Nga kaŋ n'a soola za gayyaŋ mo, araŋ mana laakal d'a.
12In that day, the Lord, Yahweh of Armies, called to weeping, and to mourning, and to baldness, and to dressing in sackcloth:
12 Woodin sabbay se no, Han din Rabbi Kundeykoyo ga ce ka ne araŋ ma hẽ ka bu baray te, k'araŋ boŋey cabu, Ka bufu zaara haw cante gaa.
13and behold, joy and gladness, killing cattle and killing sheep, eating flesh and drinking wine: “Let us eat and drink, for tomorrow we will die.”
13 A binde araŋ go ga farhã da bine kaani gumo, Da haw da feeji wiyaŋ, da ham ŋwaari da duvan* haŋyaŋ. Araŋ go ga ne: «Iri ma ŋwa, iri ma haŋ, Zama suba no iri ga bu.»
14Yahweh of Armies revealed himself in my ears, “Surely this iniquity will not be forgiven you until you die,” says the Lord, Yahweh of Armies.
14 Amma Rabbi Kundeykoyo na woone bangandi ay se ay hangey ra. A ne: Daahir ay si taalo din yaafa araŋ se kala araŋ ma bu. Yaadin no Rabbi Kundeykoyo ci.
15Thus says the Lord, Yahweh of Armies, “Go, get yourself to this treasurer, even to Shebna, who is over the house, and say,
15 Yaa no Rabbi Kundeykoyo ci: Ma koy bora kaŋ ga bonkoono arzaka jisiyaŋ windo dabari do, Kaŋ ga ti Sebna. Ma ne a se:
16‘What are you doing here? Who has you here, that you have dug out a tomb here?’ Cutting himself out a tomb on high, chiseling a habitation for himself in the rock!”
16 «Ifo no ni se neewo? May no ni se mo nango, Kaŋ se ni na saaray jabu ni boŋ se nango wo ra?» (A go ga fijiyaŋ do jabu nga boŋ se tondo boŋ, A goono ga nangoray jabu nga boŋ se tondi ra.)
17Behold, Yahweh will overcome you and hurl you away violently. Yes, he will grasp you firmly.
17 A go, Rabbi ga ba ka ni jindaw da gaabi, Nin boro gaabikoono. Oho, a ga ni di diyaŋ hanno.
18He will surely wind you around and around, and throw you like a ball into a large country. There you will die, and there the chariots of your glory will be, you shame of your lord’s house.
18 A ga ni windi-windi sanda taawa cine ka ni catu kala ni ma koy laabu fo kaŋ ga tafay ra. Noodin no ni ga bu, Noodin mo no ni torko darzantey go, Ya nin, ni jine bora windo haawi haro!
19I will thrust you from your office. You will be pulled down from your station.
19 Ay ga ni gaaray ka ni kaa ni goyo ra, Ay ga ni dagu ka kaa ni nango ra mo.
20It will happen in that day that I will call my servant Eliakim the son of Hilkiah,
20 A ga ciya mo, han din hane ay g'ay tamo Eliyacim Hilciya ize ce.
21and I will clothe him with your robe, and strengthen him with your belt. I will commit your government into his hand; and he will be a father to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and to the house of Judah.
21 Ay ga ni kwaayo daŋ Eliyacim gaa ka ni guddama korfa haw a gaa. A kambe ra mo no ay ga ni mayra daŋ. A ga ciya baaba Urusalima gorokoy da Yahuda dumo mo se.
22I will lay the key of the house of David on his shoulder. He will open, and no one will shut. He will shut, and no one will open.
22 Dawda windo daabuyaŋ haro mo, ay g'a daŋ a kambe ra. D'a n'a feeri, boro kulu s'a daabu. D'a n'a daabu mo, boro kulu s'a feeri.
23I will fasten him like a nail in a sure place. He will be for a throne of glory to his father’s house.
23 Ay g'a sinji sanda sarfa cine nangu tabbatante ra, a ga ciya karga darzante mo nga baabo dumo se.
24They will hang on him all the glory of his father’s house, the offspring and the issue, every small vessel, from the cups even to all the pitchers.
24 A baabo dumo darza kulu ga sarku a gaa, izey nda ngey banda. Hari jinay kulu, za haŋ gaasiyey gaa kal a ma koy gullayzey kulu gaa, ngey mo ga sarku a gaa.
25“In that day,” says Yahweh of Armies, “the nail that was fastened in a sure place will give way. It will be cut down, and fall. The burden that was on it will be cut off, for Yahweh has spoken it.”
25 Rabbi Kundeykoyo ne: Han din hane sarfa kaŋ i sinji nangu tabbatanta ra din, a ga sooli. A ga pati ka kaŋ, jinayey kaŋ goono ga sarku a gaa din mo ga halaci, zama Rabbi no ka woodin ci.
