Geedka Kedarka Ah Ee Lubnaan Ku Yaal

31 Oo haddana sannaddii kow iyo tobnaad, bisheedii saddexaad, maalinteedii kowaad ayaa eraygii Rabbigu ii yimid isagoo leh, Wiilka Aadamow, Fircoon oo ah boqorka Masar iyo dadkiisa badanba waxaad ku tidhaahdaa, Bal yaad weynaanta kala mid tahay? Bal eeg, kii reer Ashuur wuxuu u ekaa geed kedar ah oo Lubnaan ku dhex yaal, oo wuxuu lahaa laamo qurxoon iyo hoos weyn, oo wuu sarajoog dheeraa, oo dhaladiisuna waxay gaadhay tan iyo daruuraha. Biyaha ayaa bixiyey, oo moolka ayaa koriyey, waayo, webiyada ayaa hareeraha kaga qulqulay meeshii lagu beeray, oo faraqyo yaryar ayay gaadhsiiyeen dhirta duurka ku taal oo dhan. Sidaas daraaddeed sarajooggiisu wuu ka wada sarreeyey dhirta duurka ku taal oo dhan, oo laamihiisuna way tiro badnaayeen, waayo, markuu soo bixiyey laamihiisu waxay la sii dheeraadeen biyaha badan aawadood. Haadka samada oo dhammu buulashooda ayay laamihiisa ka dhex samaysteen, oo dugaagga duurka oo dhammuna laamihiisay gabnahooda ku hoos dhaleen, oo quruumaha waaweyn oo dhammuna hooskiisay degganaayeen. Oo sidaasuu weynaantiisa iyo laamihiisa dheerdheer ugu qurxoonaa, waayo, xididkiisu biyo badan buu u dhowaa. Geedaha kedarka ah ee beerta Ilaah ku dhex yaal ma ay qarin karin isaga, oo geedaha berooshkuna laamihiisa oo kale ma ay lahayn, oo geedaha armoonkuna laamihiisa oo kale ma ay lahayn, oo geedaha beerta Ilaah ku dhex yaal midkoodna quruxdiisa oo kale ma uu lahayn. Waxaan isaga ku qurxiyey laamihiisa badan, si ay dhirtii beerta Ilaah oo Ceeden ah ku dhex tiil oo dhammu isaga ugu wada hinaasaan.

10 Sidaas daraaddeed Sayidka Rabbiga ahu wuxuu leeyahay, Isagaa sarajoog dheeraa, oo dhaladiisiina wuxuu gaadhsiiyey tan iyo daruuraha, oo qalbigiisuna wuxuu la kibray dhererkiisa aawadiis, 11 sidaas daraaddeed isagaan u gacangeliyey kan quruumaha ugu wada xoog badan. Hubaal isagu wuu abaalmarin doonaa. Aniga ayaa sharkiisii aawadiis u eryay. 12 Shisheeyayaashii ahaa kuwii quruumaha ugu nac weynaa ayaa isaga baabbi'iyey oo ka tegey. Buuraha korkooda iyo dooxooyinka dhexdooda oo dhanba waxaa daadsan laamihiisii, oo laamihiisii waxay ku ag jajaban yihiin webiyaasha dalka oo dhan; oo dadyowgii dunida oo dhammuna hooskiisay ka wada dareereen oo isagay ka tageen. 13 Haadka samada oo dhammu waxay ku hoyan doonaan burburkiisa, oo dugaagga duurka oo dhammuna laamihiisay dul saarnaan doonaan. 14 Taasu waa si dhirta biyaha ku ag taal oo dhammu ayan dhererkooda aawadiis kor isugu sii qaadin, ama ayan dhaladooda daruuraha u gaadhsiin, ama aan geedahooda midna dhererkiisa ugu sii taagnaan inta biyaha cabta oo dhan, waayo, kulligood waxaa loo gacangeliyey geeri inay dhulka meelaha ugu hooseeya oo binu-aadmigu ku dhex jiro hoos ugula dhacaan kuwa yamayska ku dhaadhaca.

15 Sayidka Rabbiga ahu wuxuu leeyahay, Maalintii uu She'ool galay waxaan ka dhigay in loo baroorto. Oo moolkii baan aawadiis u daboolay, oo webiyaashiisiina waan celiyey, oo biyihii badnaana waa la joojiyey, oo dadka Lubnaanna waxaan ka dhigay inay isaga u baroortaan, oo dhirtii duurka oo dhammuna isaga aawadiis bay u taag darnaadeen. 16 Oo markaan isaga She'ool kula dhex tuuray kuwa yamayska ku dhaadhaca waxaan ka dhigay inay quruumuhu sanqadha dhiciddiisa la wada gariiraan, oo geedaha Ceeden ku yaal oo dhan, oo ah kuwa la doortay oo dhirta Lubnaan ugu wada fiican, kuwaasoo ah inta biyaha cabta oo dhanba, dhulka meelaha ugu hooseeya ayaa loogu wada tacsiyeeyey. 17 Oo iyagiina She'ool bay kula dhaadheceen isagii, oo waxay u wada tageen kuwii seefta lagu laayay. Iyagu gacantiisay ahaayeen oo hooskiisay quruumaha dhexdooda ku degganaan jireen.

18 Haddaba dhirta Ceeden ku dhex taal bal midkee baad sharafta iyo weynaanta kala mid tahay? Laakiinse adiga waxaa hoos laguula dhaadhicin doonaa dhirta Ceeden ku dhex taal, oo waxaad geli doontaa dhulka meelaha ugu hooseeya. Oo kuwa seefta lagu laayay ayaad buuryaqabyada la dhex jiifi doontaa. Waana Fircoon iyo dadkiisa badan oo dhan, ayaa Sayidka Rabbiga ahu leeyahay.

Pharaoh as a Felled Cedar of Lebanon

31 In the eleventh year,(A) in the third month on the first day, the word of the Lord came to me:(B) “Son of man, say to Pharaoh king of Egypt and to his hordes:

“‘Who can be compared with you in majesty?
Consider Assyria,(C) once a cedar in Lebanon,(D)
    with beautiful branches overshadowing the forest;
it towered on high,
    its top above the thick foliage.(E)
The waters(F) nourished it,
    deep springs made it grow tall;
their streams flowed
    all around its base
and sent their channels
    to all the trees of the field.(G)
So it towered higher(H)
    than all the trees of the field;
its boughs increased
    and its branches grew long,
    spreading because of abundant waters.(I)
All the birds of the sky
    nested in its boughs,
all the animals of the wild
    gave birth(J) under its branches;
all the great nations
    lived in its shade.(K)
It was majestic in beauty,
    with its spreading boughs,
for its roots went down
    to abundant waters.(L)
The cedars(M) in the garden of God
    could not rival it,
nor could the junipers
    equal its boughs,
nor could the plane trees(N)
    compare with its branches—
no tree in the garden of God
    could match its beauty.(O)
I made it beautiful
    with abundant branches,
the envy of all the trees of Eden(P)
    in the garden of God.(Q)

10 “‘Therefore this is what the Sovereign Lord says: Because the great cedar towered over the thick foliage, and because it was proud(R) of its height, 11 I gave it into the hands of the ruler of the nations, for him to deal with according to its wickedness. I cast it aside,(S) 12 and the most ruthless of foreign nations(T) cut it down and left it. Its boughs fell on the mountains and in all the valleys;(U) its branches lay broken in all the ravines of the land. All the nations of the earth came out from under its shade and left it.(V) 13 All the birds settled on the fallen tree, and all the wild animals lived among its branches.(W) 14 Therefore no other trees by the waters are ever to tower proudly on high, lifting their tops above the thick foliage. No other trees so well-watered are ever to reach such a height; they are all destined(X) for death,(Y) for the earth below, among mortals who go down to the realm of the dead.(Z)

15 “‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says: On the day it was brought down to the realm of the dead I covered the deep springs with mourning for it; I held back its streams, and its abundant waters were restrained. Because of it I clothed Lebanon with gloom, and all the trees of the field withered away.(AA) 16 I made the nations tremble(AB) at the sound of its fall when I brought it down to the realm of the dead to be with those who go down to the pit. Then all the trees(AC) of Eden,(AD) the choicest and best of Lebanon, the well-watered trees, were consoled(AE) in the earth below.(AF) 17 They too, like the great cedar, had gone down to the realm of the dead, to those killed by the sword,(AG) along with the armed men who lived in its shade among the nations.

18 “‘Which of the trees of Eden can be compared with you in splendor and majesty? Yet you, too, will be brought down with the trees of Eden to the earth below; you will lie among the uncircumcised,(AH) with those killed by the sword.

“‘This is Pharaoh and all his hordes, declares the Sovereign Lord.’”
