1Of Moab. Thus says Yahweh of Armies, the God of Israel: Woe to Nebo! for it is laid waste; Kiriathaim is disappointed, it is taken; Misgab is put to shame and broken down.
1 Mowab sanno neeya: Yaa no Rabbi Kundeykoyo, Israyla Irikoyo ci: Kaari Nebo! zama a ga halaci. Ciriyat-Ayim ga haaw, i g'a ŋwa mo, Haawi ga wongu fu gaabikoono din di, I g'a bagu-bagu kala ganda.
2The praise of Moab is no more; in Heshbon they have devised evil against her: Come, and let us cut her off from being a nation. You also, Madmen, shall be brought to silence: the sword shall pursue you.
2 Borey si ye ka Mowab sifa koyne. Hesbon ra no i na laala me-hawyaŋ te a boŋ. I ne: «Wa kaa iri m'a dumitara tuusu ka kaa.» Ni mo, ya Madmena, i ga ni dangandi muk! Takuba ga ni ce kondo ŋwa!
3The sound of a cry from Horonaim, desolation and great destruction!
3 Kaatiyaŋ jinde fo ga fun Horonayim, Wongu kuyaŋ da halaciyaŋ bambata no.
4Moab is destroyed; her little ones have caused a cry to be heard.
4 I ga Mowab ceeri, i g'a zankey daŋ i ma baray.
5For by the ascent of Luhith with continual weeping shall they go up; for at the descent of Horonaim they have heard the distress of the cry of destruction.
5 Zama i ga kaaru Luhit zijanta, I ga soobay ka hẽeni korno te, Zama Horonayim zullanta ibarey ga maa halaciyaŋ hẽeni.
6Flee, save your lives, and be like the heath in the wilderness.
6 Wa zuru k'araŋ fundey faaba, Wa ciya sanda saajo ra dudube.
7For, because you have trusted in your works and in your treasures, you also shall be taken: and Chemosh shall go forth into captivity, his priests and his princes together.
7 Zama za kaŋ ni de ni goyey da ni arzaka gaa, Ni mo, i ga ni di. Kemos ga koy tamtaray ra, Nga nda nga alfagey d'a mayraykoyey.
8The destroyer shall come on every city, and no city shall escape; the valley also shall perish, and the plain shall be destroyed; as Yahweh has spoken.
8 Halaciko ga kaa gallu kulu gaa, Gallu si no kaŋ ga du ka yana. Gooro ga halaci, tudey boŋ batamey mo ga halaci. Yaadin no Rabbi ci.
9Give wings to Moab, that she may fly and get her away: and her cities shall become a desolation, without any to dwell therein.
9 I ma Mowab no fatayaŋ zama a ma tun ka deesi ka yana, Zama a galley ga ciya saaji fimbi kaŋ sinda goroko.
10Cursed is he who does the work of Yahweh negligently; and cursed is he who keeps back his sword from blood.
10 Laalante no boro kulu kaŋ na Rabbi goyo din te da forgay. Laalante no nga mo kaŋ na nga takuba ganji kuro din.
11Moab has been at ease from his youth, and he has settled on his lees, and has not been emptied from vessel to vessel, neither has he gone into captivity: therefore his taste remains in him, and his scent is not changed.
11 Mowab goro da laakal kanay za nga zankatara gaa. Sanda duvan* kaŋ go ga kani, Yaadin cine no a goro nd'a. A mana di i m'a bare ka kaa foobu fo ra ka ye foobu fo ra, A mana dira ka koy tamtaray baa ce fo. Woodin se no a kaaniyo mana fay d'a, A haw kaana mo mana barmay.
12Therefore behold, the days come, says Yahweh, that I will send to him those who pour off, and they shall pour him off; and they shall empty his vessels, and break their bottles in pieces.
12 Yaa no Rabbi ci: A go binde, jirbiyaŋ goono ga kaa, Kaŋ ay ga soogukoyaŋ donton a gaa. I g'a siirandi mo, a ma mun, I m'a foobey kaa koonu k'i bagu-bagu mo.
13Moab shall be ashamed of Chemosh, as the house of Israel was ashamed of Bethel their confidence.
13 Mowab ga haaw Kemos sabbay se, Sanda mate kaŋ cine Israyla dumo Haaw i deyaŋ haro Betel sabbay se.
14How do you say, We are mighty men, and valiant men for the war?
14 Mate araŋ ga te ka ne: «Iri ya wongaariyaŋ no, Gaabikooniyaŋ, wongu boroyaŋ?»
15Moab is laid waste, and they are gone up into his cities, and his chosen young men are gone down to the slaughter, says the King, whose name is Yahweh of Armies.
15 I na Mowab ku! Ibarey kaaru ka furo a galley ra. A wane arwasu suubanantey mo zulli ka koy wiyaŋ do, Yaa no Koy Beero ci, Nga kaŋ Rabbi Kundeykoyo no ga ti a maa.
16The calamity of Moab is near to come, and his affliction hurries fast.
16 Mowab taabi kaayaŋo maan, A masiiba mo goono ga waasu ka kaa.
17All you who are around him, bemoan him, and all you who know his name; say, How is the strong staff broken, the beautiful rod!
17 Araŋ kulu kaŋ yaŋ goono g'a windi, Kaŋ yaŋ g'a maa bay mo, Kal araŋ ma soobay ka bu baray te a se, Araŋ ma ne: «Wa guna mate kaŋ cine koytaray sarjilla gaabikoono wo ceeri nd'a, goobu hanna din!»
18You daughter who dwells in Dibon, come down from your glory, and sit in thirst; for the destroyer of Moab has come up against you, he has destroyed your strongholds.
18 Ya nin, ize wayo kaŋ goono ga goro Dibon ra, Ma zumbu ka fun ni darza ra. Ma goro jaw maayaŋ laabu ra, Zama nga kaŋ na Mowab ku din go kaa ni gaa. A na ni wongu fuwey halaci.
19Inhabitant of Aroer, stand by the way, and watch: ask him who flees, and her who escapes; say, What has been done?
19 Ya nin Arower gorokwa, Ma kay fondo me gaa, ma mo daaru ka guna. Ma zuruko da waybora kaŋ go ga yana mo hã ka ne: «Ifo no ka te?»
20Moab is disappointed; for it is broken down: wail and cry; tell it by the Arnon, that Moab is laid waste.
20 I na Mowab haawandi, zama i n'a bagu-bagu kala ganda. Wa kuuwa ka baray! Wa baaro dede Arnon me gaa ka ne i na Mowab leemun.
21Judgment has come on the plain country, on Holon, and on Jahzah, and on Mephaath,
21 Ciiti kaŋ batama laabo boŋ, Holon da Yahaz da Mefaat boŋ,
22and on Dibon, and on Nebo, and on Beth Diblathaim,
22 Da Dibon da Nebo da Bayt-Diblatayim boŋ,
23and on Kiriathaim, and on Beth Gamul, and on Beth Meon,
23 Da Ciriyat-Ayim da Bayt-Gamul da Bayt-Meyon boŋ,
24and on Kerioth, and on Bozrah, and on all the cities of the land of Moab, far or near.
24 Da Kariyoti da Bozra da Mowab laabo galley kulu boŋ, Wo kaŋ ga mooru nda wo kaŋ ga maan nooya.
25The horn of Moab is cut off, and his arm is broken, says Yahweh.
25 I na Mowab hillo pati ka kaa, a kamba mo ceeri. Yaadin no Rabbi ci.
26Make him drunken; for he magnified himself against Yahweh: and Moab shall wallow in his vomit, and he also shall be in derision.
26 W'a haŋandi baji hal a ma bugu, Zama a fooma Rabbi gaa. Woodin se no Mowab ga bimbilko nga yeero ra, A ga ciya donda-caray hari.
27For wasn’t Israel a derision to you? was he found among thieves? for as often as you speak of him, you shake your head.
27 Day waato, manti Israyla wo donda-caray hari no ni se bo? I n'a gar zayey ra ce fo no, wala? Kaŋ se waati kaŋ ni g'a ciine te kulu, Ni ga sar ka zimbi farhã sabbay se.
28You inhabitants of Moab, leave the cities, and dwell in the rock; and be like the dove that makes her nest over the mouth of the abyss.
28 Ya araŋ Mowab ra gorokoy, Kal araŋ ma fay da galley ka goro tondi guusu yaŋ ra. Wa ciya sanda koloŋay kaŋ goono ga nga fito te guusu me jabu gaa.
29We have heard of the pride of Moab. He is very proud; his loftiness, and his pride, and his arrogance, and the haughtiness of his heart.
29 Iri maa Mowab boŋbeera baaru, Boŋbeeraykoy no gumo. A niine jarawo, d'a boŋbeera, D'a fundi beera, d'a bina ra donda-cara,
30I know his wrath, says Yahweh, that it is nothing; his boastings have worked nothing.
30 Ay n'i kulu bay. Yaadin no Rabbi ci: Amma a futa ya hari yaamo no, A fooma mo, taari wane no.
31Therefore will I wail for Moab; yes, I will cry out for all Moab: for the men of Kir Heres shall they mourn.
31 Woodin se no ay ga baray Mowab se, Oho, ay ga hẽeni korno te Mowab kulu se, I ga duray Cir-Heres borey se.
32With more than the weeping of Jazer will I weep for you, vine of Sibmah: your branches passed over the sea, they reached even to the sea of Jazer: on your summer fruits and on your vintage the destroyer is fallen.
32 Ya Sibma reyzin* tiksa, ay ga hẽ ni se da hẽeni kaŋ ga bisa Yazer wano korni. Ni kambe mariyey to hala teeko daaranta, Hala Yazer teeko gaa. Sohõ hasarawkwa kaa ka kaŋ ni fari nafa da ni reyzin kalo nafa boŋ.
33Gladness and joy is taken away from the fruitful field and from the land of Moab; and I have caused wine to cease from the wine presses: none shall tread with shouting; the shouting shall be no shouting.
33 I na farhã da bine kaani hibandi ka kaa faro kaŋ gonda nafa ra da Mowab laabo ra mo. Ay naŋ reyzin hari mo ma ban nga kankamyaŋo do. Borey kaŋ g'a taamu nda kosongu mana cindi koyne, Kosongo kaŋ ga bara, manti farhã wane no.
34From the cry of Heshbon even to Elealeh, even to Jahaz have they uttered their voice, from Zoar even to Horonaim, to Eglath Shelishiyah: for the waters of Nimrim also shall become desolate.
34 Za Hesbon gaa ka koy Eleyale kal a ma koy to Yahaz, Za Zowar gaa ka koy Horonayim ka koy to Eglat-Selisiya gaa mo, I goono ga hẽ, i na ngey jinde sambu mo. Zama baa Nimrim haro ga sundu.
35Moreover I will cause to cease in Moab, says Yahweh, him who offers in the high place, and him who burns incense to his gods.
35 Koyne, ay ga naŋ sududuyaŋ nangey ra sargay nooko ma ban Mowab ra, Hala nd'a de-koyey se dugu tonko. Yaadin no Rabbi ci.
36Therefore my heart sounds for Moab like pipes, and my heart sounds like pipes for the men of Kir Heres: therefore the abundance that he has gotten is perished.
36 Woodin se no ay bina goono ga hẽ Mowab se danga seese cine, Ay bina goono ga hẽ danga seese cine Cir-Heres borey mo se, Zama arzaka kaŋ i margu kulu halaci.
37For every head is bald, and every beard clipped: on all the hands are cuttings, and on the waist sackcloth.
37 Boro kulu boŋo go tali, i na kaabe kulu hõse, Boro kulu kambe kortu-kortu, Bufu zaara go boro kulu cante gaa mo.
38On all the housetops of Moab and in its streets there is lamentation every where; for I have broken Moab like a vessel in which none delights, says Yahweh.
38 I goono ga bu baray te Mowab jidan bisey kulu boŋ, D'a kwaara fondey kulu ra, Zama ay na Mowab bagu sanda kusu kaŋ boro kulu si maa a kaani cine. Yaadin no Rabbi ci.
39How it is broken down! How they wail! How Moab has turned the back with shame! So shall Moab become a derision and a terror to all who are around him.
39 Guna mate kaŋ cine a bagu-bagu nd'a! Wa kaati ka ne: «Kaari!» Mowab na banda bare, haawi n'a di! Yaadin cine no Mowab ga goro ka ciya donda-caray hari da humburkumay hari a windanta waney kulu se.
40For thus says Yahweh: Behold, he shall fly as an eagle, and shall spread out his wings against Moab.
40 Zama yaa no Rabbi ci: A go, sanda zeeban cine no ibara ga tun ka deesi ka nga fatey daaru Mowab boŋ.
41Kerioth is taken, and the strongholds are seized, and the heart of the mighty men of Moab at that day shall be as the heart of a woman in her pangs.
41 I ga galley ŋwa, i ga wongu fuwey di, Han din hane Mowab gaabikooney biney ga ciya sanda wayboro kaŋ goono ga hay-zaŋay bine cine.
42Moab shall be destroyed from being a people, because he has magnified himself against Yahweh.
42 I ga Mowab halaci hal a ma to naŋ kaŋ a si ye ka ciya ndunnya dumi koyne, Zama a na nga boŋ beerandi ka gaaba nda Rabbi.
43Fear, and the pit, and the snare, are on you, inhabitant of Moab, says Yahweh.
43 Ya nin kaŋ goono ga goro Mowab ra, Joote nda guusu nda korfo hirrimi go kaa ni gaa. Yaadin no Rabbi ci.
44He who flees from the fear shall fall into the pit; and he who gets up out of the pit shall be taken in the snare: for I will bring on him, even on Moab, the year of their visitation, says Yahweh.
44 Boro kaŋ ga zuru joote se, A koy ga kaŋ guuso ra. Boro kaŋ du ka nga boŋ kaa guuso ra, I g'a koy di da korfo hirrimo. Zama ay ga Mowab banayaŋ jiiro candi ka kande a gaa. Yaadin no Rabbi ci.
45Those who fled stand without strength under the shadow of Heshbon; for a fire is gone forth out of Heshbon, and a flame from the midst of Sihon, and has devoured the corner of Moab, and the crown of the head of the tumultuous ones.
45 Borey kaŋ zuru din, I go ga kay Hesbon biyo cire, gaabi si. Zama danji ga fun Hesbon ra, Danji beele mo ga fatta Sihon bindo ra ka Mowab hanga dundo da kusuumantey boŋ bindey ŋwa.
46Woe to you, O Moab! the people of Chemosh is undone; for your sons are taken away captive, and your daughters into captivity.
46 Kaari nin, ya Mowab! Kemos jama halaci parkatak! Zama i na ni ize arey da ni ize wayey di ka kond'ey ka daŋ tamtaray.
47Yet will I bring back the captivity of Moab in the latter days, says Yahweh. Thus far is the judgment of Moab.
47 Kulu nda yaadin, jirbey bananta ra ay ga ye ka kande Mowab koyne ka fun d'a nga tamtara ra. Yaadin no Rabbi ci. Mowab ciito me nooya.
