Ezekieli 47
1 Munthuyo anabwerera nane ku chipata cha Nyumba ya Mulungu. Ndinaona madzi akutuluka kunsi kwa chiwundo cha Nyumba ya Mulungu chakummawa; poti Nyumba ya Mulungu inayangʼana kummawa. Madziwo ankachokera kunsi kwa mbali yakummwera ya Nyumba ya Mulungu; kummwera kwa guwa lansembe.
And he brought me back to the door of the house. And, behold, waters issued out from under the threshold of the house eastward, for the forefront of the house was toward the east. And the waters came down from under, from the right side of the house, on the south of the altar.
2 Ananditulutsira pa chipata chakumpoto ndipo anazungulira nane panja mpaka ku chipata chakunja choyangʼana kummawa. Ndipo ndinaona madzi akutuluka chakummwera kwa chipatacho.
Then he brought me out by the way of the gate northward, and led me round by the way outside to the outer gate, by the way of the gate that looks toward the east. And, behold, waters ran out on the right side.
3 Munthuyo anapita chakummawa ali ndi chingwe choyezera mʼdzanja lake. Iye anayeza mamita 500, ndipo pambuyo pake analowa nane mʼmadziwo amene ankalekeza mʼkakolo.
When the man went forth eastward with the line in his hand, he measured a thousand cubits, and he caused me to pass through the waters, waters that were to the ankles.
4 Anayezanso mamita 500 ndipo analowa nane mʼmadzi amene amalekeza mʼmawondo. Iye anayezanso mamita 500 ndipo analowa nane mʼmadzi amene amalekeza mʼchiwuno.
Again he measured a thousand, and caused me to pass through the waters, waters that were to the knees. Again he measured a thousand, and caused me to pass through the waters, waters that were to the loins.
5 Munthuyo anayezanso mamita 500, ndipo madziwo anasanduka mtsinje woti sindikanatha kuwoloka, pakuti madziwo anakwera, ndipo anali ozama ofunika kusambira pofuna kuwoloka.
Afterward he measured a thousand, and it was a river that I could not pass through, for the waters were risen, waters to swim in, a river that could not be passed through.
6 Munthuyo anandifunsa kuti: “Iwe mwana wa munthu, kodi ukuziona zimenezi?” Kenaka anabwerera nane ku gombe la mtsinjewo.
And he said to me, Son of man, have thou seen this? Then he brought me, and caused me to return to the bank of the river.
7 Nditafika pa gombepo, ndinaona mitengo yambiri ku mbali iliyonse ya mtsinjewo.
Now when I had returned, behold, upon the bank of the river were very many trees on the one side and on the other.
8 Tsono munthuyo anandiwuza kuti, “Madziwa akupita ku chigawo chakummawa ndi kutsikira ku chigwa cha Araba. Kenaka akathira mʼNyanja Yakufa, ndipo akakalowa mʼnyanjayo, madzi a nyanjayo adzasanduka okoma.
Then he said to me, These waters issue forth toward the eastern region, and shall go down into the Arabah. And they shall go toward the sea, into the sea which were made to issue forth, and the waters shall be healed.
9 Kulikonse kumene mtsinjewo ukuyenda cholengedwa chilichonse chidzakhala ndi moyo. Nsombanso zidzakhala zambiri. Paja madzi amenewa amapita kumeneko kuti akakometse madzi ena. Choncho kulikonse kumene madziwa akuyenda chilichonse chidzakhala ndi moyo.
And it shall come to pass, that every living creature which swarms, in every place where the rivers come, shall live. And there shall be a very great multitude of fish (for these waters have come there) and shall be healed. And everything shall live wherever the river comes.
10 Asodzi adzayima mʼmbali mwa Nyanja Yakufa. Pakuti kuchokera ku Eni-Gedi mpaka ku Eni Egilaimu kudzakhala malo oponyako makoka. Kudzakhala nsomba zamitundumitundu, monga nsomba za ku Nyanja Yayikulu.
And it shall come to pass, that fishermen shall stand by it. From En-gedi even to En-eglaim shall be a place for the spreading of nets. Their fish shall be according to their kinds, as the fish of the great sea, very many.
11 Koma mathawale ake ndi maiwe ake sadzakhala ndi madzi abwino; adzakhala ndi madzi a mchere.
But the miry places of it, and the marshes of it, shall not be healed. They shall be given up to salt.
12 Mʼmbali zonse za mtsinje mudzamera mitengo ya zipatso zakudya za mtundu uliwonse. Masamba ake sadzafota kapena kulephera kubereka zipatso. Izidzabereka mwezi uliwonse, chifukwa madzi ake adzakhala ochokera ku Nyumba ya Mulungu. Zipatso zake anthu azidzadya ndipo masamba ake azidzachitira mankhwala.”
And by the river upon the bank of it, on this side and on that side, shall grow every tree for food, whose leaf shall not wither, nor shall the fruit of it fail. It shall bring forth new fruit every month, because the waters of it issue out of the sanctuary. And the fruit of it shall be for food, and the leaf of it for healing.
13 Ambuye Yehova akuti, “Nawa malire amene mudzatsate powagawira dziko mafuko khumi ndi awiri a Israeli aja. Yosefe adzalandire zigawo ziwiri.
Thus says the lord Jehovah: This shall be the border by which ye shall divide the land for inheritance according to the twelve tribes of Israel. Joseph shall have two portions.
14 Mudzawagawire dzikolo mofanana. Paja ndinalumbira kwa makolo anu kuti dzikoli lidzakhala lanulanu.
And ye shall inherit it, one as well as another, for I swore to give it to your fathers. And this land shall fall to you for inheritance.
15 “Malire a dzikolo adzakhala motere: Mbali ya kumpoto adzachokera ku Nyanja Yayikulu kutsata msewu wa ku Hetiloni mpaka ku chipata cha Hamoti ndi kupitirira ku Zedadi,
And this shall be the border of the land: On the north side, from the great sea, by the way of Hethlon, to the entrance of Zedad,
16 Berota ndi Sibraimu (mizinda imene ili pakati pa malire a Damasiko ndi Hamati mpaka kukafika ku Hazeri Hatikoni mzinda umene uli mʼmalire mwa Haurani.
Hamath, Berothah, Sibraim, which is between the border of Damascus and the border of Hamath, Hazer-hatticon, which is by the border of Hauran.
17 Motero malire akumpoto adzachokera ku nyanja mpaka ku mzinda wa Hazari-Enoni, mʼmalire akumpoto a Damasiko ndi chakumpoto kwa malire a Hamati. Awa adzakhala malire a kumpoto.
And the border from the sea, shall be Hazar-enon at the border of Damascus, and on the north northward is the border of Hamath. This is the north side.
18 Mbali ya kummawa malire adzayenda pakati pa Haurani ndi Damasiko, mbali ya ku Yorodani pakati pa Giliyadi ndi dziko la Israeli, ku nyanja ya kummawa mpaka ku mzinda wa Tamara. Awa adzakhala malire akummawa.
And the east side, between Hauran and Damascus and Gilead, and the land of Israel, shall be the Jordan, from the north border to the east sea ye shall measure. This is the east side.
19 Mbali yakummwera malire adzayenda kuchokera ku dziwe la mzinda wa Tamara mpaka ku madzi a ku Meriba Kadesi. Kenaka ndi kutsata chigwa cha ku Igupto mpaka ku Nyanja Yayikulu. Awa adzakhala malire akummwera.
And the south side southward shall be from Tamar as far as the waters of Meriboth-kadesh, to the brook of Egypt, to the great sea. This is the south side southward.
20 Mbali ya kumadzulo, malire adzakhala Nyanja Yayikulu mpaka pa malo oyangʼanana ndi Lebo Hamati. Awa adzakhala malire akumadzulo.”
And the west side shall be the great sea, from the south border as far as opposite the entrance of Hamath. This is the west side.
21 “Mugawane dziko limeneli pakati panu potsata mafuko a Israeli.
So ye shall divide this land to you according to the tribes of Israel.
22 Muligawe kuti likhale cholowa chanu ndiponso cholowa cha alendo amene akukhala pakati panu, nakhala ndi ana pakati panu. Inu muwatenge monga mbadwa za mu Israeli. Adzapatsidwe cholowa chawo pamodzi ndi inu pakati pa mafuko a Israeli.
And it shall come to pass, that ye shall divide it by lot for an inheritance to you and to the strangers who sojourn among you, who shall beget sons among you. And they shall be to you as the home-born among the sons of Israel; they shall have inheritance with you among the tribes of Israel.
23 Mu fuko lililonse kumene mlendoyo akukhala mumupatse cholowa chake.” Ndikutero Ine Ambuye Yehova.
And it shall come to pass, that in what tribe the stranger sojourns, there ye shall give him his inheritance, says the lord Jehovah.
