Ezekiel 32

1 Chiengʼ mokwongo mar dwe mar apar gariyo, e higa mar apar gariyo, wach Jehova Nyasaye nobirona kawacho niya:

Almost twelve years [after we had been taken to Babylonia], on the first day of the twelfth month [of that year], Yahweh gave me another message. He said,

2 “Wuod dhano, chwog wend ywak ni Farao ruodh Misri, kendo wachne ni: “‘Ichalo ka sibuor e kind ogendini, ichalo gi thuol malich mantie e chuny nembe madongo, ka imuomo aoreni ka ithacho pi gi tiendeni, kendo ka iduwo pige mag aore magi.

“You human, sing a sad/funeral song about the king of Egypt. Sing this to him: ‘You [think that you] [IRO] are like [SIM] a lion among the nations; or like [SIM] a monster/crocodile in the river thrashing around in the water, churning/stirring up the water with your feet and causing the water to become muddy.

3 “‘Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto wacho: “‘Abiro konyora gi oganda mar ji mangʼeny, mi abol gogo mara kuomi, kendo gibiro maki gi gogono ma ok inyal bwodho.

But this is what Yahweh the Lord says: “I will send many people to throw my net over you, and they will haul/drag you up [onto the land] in my net.

4 Abiro diri oko e lowo kendo abiro boli e dier pap malach. Abiro chiko winy duto manie kor polo mondo onur kuomi, kendo le mager duto mag piny biro chami mi giyiengʼ.

They will throw you into a field [DOU] [to die]; I will allow the birds to sit on you, and all the wild animals will eat the flesh of your corpse until their stomachs are full.

5 Anadhur ringri modongʼ motop ewi gode kendo apongʼo holni gi chokeni.

I will cause them to scatter your flesh on the hills and fill the valleys with your bones.

6 Abiro budo lowo gi rembi mamol koa ewi gode, kendo holni biro pongʼ gi ringri.

I will cause them to fill the land with your blood, all the way to the mountains, and the ravines will be filled with your flesh.

7 Chiengʼ ma anatieki mi aum kor polo to sulwe ok norieny; kendo wangʼ chiengʼ gi boche polo ok nobedie bende dwe ok norieny.

When I get rid of you, I will cover the sky and not allow the stars to shine. I will put a dark cloud in front of the sun, and the moon will not shine.

8 Ler duto marieny e polo anami lokreni mudho; anakel mudho mondo oum pinyi, Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto osewacho.

I will cause the stars in the sky to be dark, and there will be darkness over your entire land; [that will surely happen because] I, Yahweh the Lord, have said it.

9 Abiro miyo chuny ji mangʼeny chandre, chiengʼ ma anakel kethruokni e dier ogendini, kendo e dier pinje mapok ingʼeyo.

And when the people of many nations hear about your being destroyed, many of them will be afraid/worried— people living in countries that you have never known about.

10 Abiro miyo ji mangʼeny dhogi moki ka gineni, kendo ruodhigi luoro nomaki, nikech en chiengʼ ma nomonjgie. E odiechiengʼ ma inipodhie, moro ka moro kuomgi notetni, seche duto ka giparo ni gin bende gibiro tho.

I will cause many people to be appalled because of [what has happened to] you, and their kings will be horrified and shudder/shake because of your [being destroyed], when I swing my sword in front of them. At the time that you will be destroyed, all of them will tremble, fearing that they also will be killed.”

11 “‘Nikech ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto wacho: “‘Ligangla mar ruodh Babulon biro lwar kuomi.

This is what Yahweh the Lord says: “The swords of [the army of] the King of Babylon will strike you.

12 Abiro miyo ogandani podhi e dho ligangla mag joma roteke; gin joma ger maonge joma ipimogo e piny ngima. Gibiro tieko sunga mar Misri kendo ogandane duto ibiro tieko.

I will cause very many of your people to be killed by the swords of mighty soldiers [from Babylonia], who are more ruthless/cruel than the soldiers of all other nations. They will cause the people of Egypt to quit being proud, because very many [HYP] of their people will be killed.

13 Abiro nego kweth mag dhogi duto kamoro amora ma gimodhoe, bangʼe pi ok nochak odure nikech dhano kata jamni ma diduwe nobed maonge.

I will destroy all the cattle in Egypt that (graze/eat grass) alongside the streams. As a result, the water in those streams will never again become muddy because of people and cattle walking in them.

14 Bangʼe anami pigene chak dok maler kendo anami aorene mol mayom, maonge gima gengʼe. Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto osewacho.’

Then I will allow the streams in Egypt to become calm again and flow [as smoothly] [SIM] as olive oil flows.

15 Ka aketho piny Misri mi olokore thim, kendo anego gik moko duto modak kuno, bende anego ji duto modak kuno, eka giningʼe ni An e Jehova Nyasaye.

When I cause Egypt to become empty/desolate and strip off everything that grows on the land, and when I get rid of all the people who live there, people will know that I, Yahweh, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].”’

16 “Ma e wend ywak ma gibiro dengonego. Nyi ogendini biro dengo ka were; gibiro were ka giywago kode Misri gi ogandane duto, Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto osewacho.”

That sad song about Egypt will also be sung by the people. Women of many nations will sing it. They will chant it about Egypt and all its people; [that will surely happen because] I, Yahweh, have said that it would happen.”

17 E higa mar apar gariyo, tarik apar gachiel mar dwe, wach Jehova Nyasaye nobirona kama:

On the fifteenth day of that same month, Yahweh gave me another message. He said,

18 “Wuod dhano, ywag jo-Misri ma oganda maduongʼ, kendo iwitgi e piny joma otho kendo gibed kuno gi ogendini mamoko maroteke.

“You human, wail about the many people of Egypt, because I will send them to the place under the earth, where they and people of other mighty nations will be. I will send them there, along with others, down to the place where the dead are.

19 Penj-gi ni, ‘Uparo ni oheru moloyo joma moko? Dhiuru e bur mondo un bende uriwru gi jogo mane osetho chon.’

Say to them, ‘You people of [APO] Egypt, [you think that] [IRO, RHQ] you are more beautiful than the people of other nations. But you also will descend to the place where the godless dead people are.

20 Gibiro podho e dier joma onegi gi ligangla. Oseik ligangla ni lweny mondo mi otieke gi ogandane duto.

[Your enemies] will pull out their swords and kill many of you. A huge number of the people of Egypt who remain will be dragged away.

21 Thuondi maroteke biro nyiso jo-Misri gi jogo mane konyogi ni, ‘Gisebiro piny ei bur kendo koro giriere piny gi joma ne ok ongʼeyo Nyasaye, ma gin joma ne onegi gi ligangla.’ (Sheol h7585)

In the place where the dead people are, mighty leaders [of other countries] will [make fun of the people of Egypt] and say, “They have come here to lie with us godless people who were killed by our enemies’ swords!”’ (Sheol h7585)

22 “Asuria ni kanyo gi jolwenje duto, kolwore gi liete mag joma osenego duto, ma gin ji duto moseneg gi ligangla.

[The corpses of the people of] Assyria will be there. They will be surrounded by [corpses of] soldiers who were killed by [their enemies’] swords.

23 Lieteni ni e buche matut duto kendo jolweny mage onindo piny kolworo liende. Ji duto mane osebedo ka bwogo ji e piny joma ngima osenegi, kendo koro oseneg-gi gi ligangla.

The people’s graves are there in the deep pit, and [corpses of soldiers of] their army lie around their graves. Corpses of all those who had caused many others in other places to be terrified also will be there, having been killed by swords.

24 “Elam ni kuno, kaachiel gi ogandane duto kolworo liende. Giduto oseneg-gi, kendo gisepodho e dho ligangla. Ji duto mane osebedo ka bwogo ji e piny joma ngima osedhi piny ei lowo ka ok otergi nyangu. Wichkuot koro omakogi kaachiel gi joma ridore kochomo bur matut.

A great number of the people of Elam will be there. They also were killed by [their enemies’] swords. They had caused people in many places [HYP] to be terrified. At that time they will lie there in that deep pit below the earth, and they, along with the others who have gone there, will be disgraced.

25 Oselosne kar nindo e kind joma onegi, ka ogandane duto olworo liende. Gin duto ok otergi nyangu, kendo ligangla onegogi. Nikech mbi margi noselandore e piny joma ngima, gin bende koro wigi okuot kaachiel gi joma ridore kochomo bur matut; osepielgi kaachiel gi joma ne osenegi.

They will lie there among others who were slaughtered, surrounded by the graves of a huge crowd of other people. While they were alive, they caused people of other nations to be terrified; but they were godless, and now, having been killed by [their enemies] swords, they will lie with others in that deep pit, disgraced, all of them avoiding each other.

26 “Meshek gi Tubal bende ni kuno, kaachiel gi ogandagi duto kolworo lietegi. Gin duto ok otergi nyangu, kendo ligangla osenegogi, nikech ne gichando ji e piny joma ngima.

[Corpses of] soldiers of Meshech and Tubal will be there, surrounded by the graves of a huge crowd of their people. They were all godless people who were killed by swords because while they were alive, they also caused people in many places [HYP] to be terrified.

27 Donge koro giriere piny e dier jokedo mamoko ma ok oter nyangu mosepodho, ma osedhi e bur kaachiel gi gigegi mag lweny, kendo makoro osepiel wiyegi e liganglagi? Kum mar richogi koro omako nyaka chokegi, kata obedo ni mbi mag jolwenygi ne olandore e piny joma ngima duto. (Sheol h7585)

They will surely [RHQ] not be buried honorably like the soldiers who have died, whose shields were buried with their corpses, whose swords were placed on their skulls in the graves. While those godless people were alive, they had caused many people in the land to be terrified, so they were punished for their sins. (Sheol h7585)

28 “To in bende, Farao, ibiro turi mi irieri piny kaachiel gi joma ok oter nyangu, kendo gi joma ligangla onego.

You king of Egypt, you also be killed and will lie there with other godless people who have been killed by [their enemies’] swords.

29 “Edom ni kuno, kaachiel gi ruodhi mage kod yawuot ruodhi mage. Kata obedo ni gin gi teko mangʼeny, to koro opielgi kaachiel gi joma ligangla onego. Opielgi piny gi joma ok oter nyangu, giriere piny e dier joma ridore kochomo bur matut.

People of the Edom people-group will be there, along with their kings and leaders. They were powerful, but they will [be killed and] lie there in the place where the other dead people are. They will lie there in that deep pit, with the other godless people.

30 “Yawuot ruodhi duto modak yo nyandwat kaachiel gi jo-Sidon duto bende ni kuno. Gin bende giselal gi joma onegi ka wigi okuot, kata obedo ni negigoyo ji gi kihondko kuom tekogi mangʼeny. Koro giriere piny ka ok otergi nyangu, kaachiel gi joma ligangla onego, kendo wigi okuot kaachiel gi joma ridore kochomo bur matut.

All the rulers of countries north [of Israel], including people from Sidon, will be there. Because of their power, they caused people to be terrified, but they will lie there. They were godless, and they will lie there along with others who were killed by [their enemies’] swords. They, along with everyone else who descends into that deep pit, will be disgraced.

31 “Farao owuon, kaachiel gi jolwenje duto biro nenogi kendo chunye nodwogi koneno ogandane duto mane onegi gi ligangla, Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto osewacho.

The king of Egypt and all his army will see them, and they will be comforted to know that there were other huge groups of people who were killed by [their enemies’] swords.

32 Kata obedo ni ne ayiene mondo obwog piny joma ngima, to Farao gi joge duto biro riere piny e bur kaachiel gi joma ok oter nyangu, gi jogo duto ma onegi gi ligangla, Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto owacho.”

While he was living, I allowed him to cause others in many countries to be terrified, but he and his huge army will be there among other godless people who had been killed by [their enemies’] swords. [That will surely happen because] I, Yahweh the Lord, am the one who has said [that it would happen].”
