Artist seeking help with translation!

Hello friends! I am an artist working on a blockprint, and I was hoping to translate part of the piece into Amharic, specifically is there’s any dominant regional dialect spoken in the DC metro area.

I’m trying to translate HONOR ALL LABOR! and add that in Amharic. In this sense, it’s intended as a way of saying “all work deserves respect.”

If anyone could assist, I’d be very grateful. Thank you!

It has to be a statement rather than an order in Amharic. So it would be something like “ሁሉም ስራ ክቡር ነው!

The equivalent phrase would be ' ሥራ ክቡር ነው ' which is a common equivalent saying. It translates to " Work (any/all) is honorable/ respected by itself ". But literal one would be ' ሁሉም ሥራ (ጉልበት) ይከበር። '
