< Ezekiel 47 >

1 Then the man brought me back to the entrance of the temple, and I saw water flowing from under the threshold of the temple toward the east (for the temple faced east). The water was coming down from under the south side of the temple, south of the altar.
Mgbe ahụ, nwoke ahụ mere ka m lọghachikwa nʼọnụ ụzọ ụlọnsọ ukwu ahụ. Ahụrụ m iyi nke na-asọ na-aga nʼakụkụ ọwụwa anyanwụ (nʼihi na ihu ụlọnsọ ahụ chere ihu nʼọwụwa anyanwụ). Mmiri ahụ si nʼokpuru ụlọnsọ ukwu ahụ nʼakụkụ aka nri nke ebe ịchụ aja, nʼakụkụ ndịda ya na-asọpụta,
2 Next he brought me out through the north gate and led me around the outside to the outer gate facing east, and there I saw the water trickling out from the south side.
O mere ka m si nʼọnụ ụzọ dị nʼugwu pụta, ma gaa nʼọnụ ụzọ nke ọwụwa anyanwụ, ebe m hụrụ mmiri ahụ ka o si na ndịda na-asọpụta.
3 As the man went eastward with a measuring line in his hand, he measured off a thousand cubits and led me through ankle-deep water.
Mgbe anyị na-aga, o ji ihe ọtụtụ dị ya nʼaka tụpụta ihe ruru narị mita ise na iri mita atọ. O duuru m na-agafe mmiri ahụ. Nʼoge a, mmiri ahụ erutela na nkwonkwo ụkwụ.
4 Then he measured off a thousand cubits and led me through knee-deep water. Again he measured a thousand cubits and led me through waist-deep water.
O jikwa ihe ọtụtụ ya tụpụtakwa ihe ruru narị mita ise na iri mita atọ ọzọ, durukwa m na-aga. Nʼoge a, mmiri ahụ erutela m nʼikpere. Mgbe ọ tụpụtara ihe ruru narị mita ise na iri mita atọ ọzọ, o duuru m gafee mmiri ruru m nʼukwu.
5 Once again he measured off a thousand cubits, but now it was a river that I could not cross, because the water had risen and was deep enough for swimming—a river that could not be crossed on foot.
Ọ tụpụtakwara ihe ruru narị mita ise na iri mita atọ ọzọ, mmiri ahụ ghọrọ osimiri nke m na-apụghị ịgafe, nʼihi na mmiri ahụ toro eto bụrụ mmiri ogwugwu, osimiri nke mmadụ na-apụghị iji ije ụkwụ gafee.
6 “Son of man, do you see this?” he asked. Then he led me back to the bank of the river.
Ọ sịrị m, “Nwa nke mmadụ, ị hụrụ ihe ndị a?” O duuru m laghachi nʼọnụ mmiri.
7 When I arrived, I saw a great number of trees along both banks of the river.
Mgbe m rutere nʼọnụ mmiri, lee, ahụrụ m ọtụtụ osisi nke toro nʼakụkụ abụọ nke iyi ahụ.
8 And he said to me, “This water flows out to the eastern region and goes down into the Arabah. When it empties into the Sea, the water there becomes fresh.
Ọ sịrị, “Iyi a na-asọ na-aga akụkụ ọwụwa anyanwụ, sọbanye nʼime Araba, tutu bịa sọbanye nʼosimiri nnu ahụ. Mgbe ọ sọbanyere nʼosimiri nnu ahụ, mmiri ya na-aghọ mmiri dị mma ọṅụṅụ
9 Wherever the river flows, there will be swarms of living creatures and a great number of fish, because it flows there and makes the waters fresh; so wherever the river flows, everything will flourish.
Ọtụtụ ihe e kere eke dị ndụ ga-ebi nʼebe ọbụla mmiri a na-asọ aga. Azụ dị ukwuu ga-ejupụta nʼebe ahụ, nʼihi na mmiri a na-asọbanye nʼebe ahụ, na-eme ka mmiri osimiri ghọọ mmiri dị mma ịṅụ aṅụ. Ya mere, ihe niile dị nʼebe ọbụla mmiri a sọjere ga-adị ndụ.
10 Fishermen will stand by the shore; from En-gedi to En-eglaim they will spread their nets to catch fish of many kinds, like the fish of the Great Sea.
Ndị ọkụ azụ ga-eguzo nʼọnụ mmiri, site nʼEn-Gedi ruo nʼEn-Eglaim a gaghị enweta ebe a na-agbasa ụgbụ e ji egbu azụ. Azụ dị iche iche ga-adịkwa, dịka azụ osimiri Mediterenịa.
11 But the swamps and marshes will not become fresh; they will be left for salt.
Ma ebe apịtị ya niile, nʼebe niile mmiri na-adọ, agaghị adị ọhụrụ, ọ bụ nnu ga-aga ka a ga-ahapụrụ ebe ndị ahụ.
12 Along both banks of the river, fruit trees of all kinds will grow. Their leaves will not wither, and their fruit will not fail. Each month they will bear fruit, because the water from the sanctuary flows to them. Their fruit will be used for food and their leaves for healing.”
Mkpụrụ osisi dị iche iche ga-eto nʼakụkụ abụọ nke iyi ahụ. Akwụkwọ ha agaghị akpọnwụ akpọnwụ, mkpụrụ ga-adị nʼelu ha mgbe niile. Mkpụrụ ọhụrụ ga-adị nʼọnwa ọbụla, nʼihi na ọ bụ mmiri si nʼebe nsọ ahụ na-agba ha mmiri. Mkpụrụ ha ga-abụ nri, akwụkwọ ha ga-abụkwa maka ịgwọ ọrịa.”
13 This is what the Lord GOD says: “These are the boundaries by which you are to divide the land as an inheritance among the twelve tribes of Israel; Joseph shall receive two portions.
Otu a ka Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị kwuru, “Nke a ga-abụ oke ala nke unu ga-eke nʼetiti ebo iri na abụọ nke Izrel dịka ihe nketa ha, Josef ga-enweta oke ala abụọ.
14 You are to divide it equally among them. Because I swore with an uplifted hand to give it to your forefathers, this land will fall to you as an inheritance.
Ebo ọbụla ga-eketa dịka ibe ya ketara, nʼihi na-eweliri m aka ṅụọ iyi na m ga-enye ndị nna nna unu ala ahụ, na ala a ga-aghọkwa ihe nketa unu.
15 This shall be the boundary of the land: On the north side it will extend from the Great Sea by way of Hethlon through Lebo-hamath to Zedad,
“Nke a ga-abụkwa oke ala nke ala unu ahụ. “Nʼakụkụ ugwu, ọ ga-esite nʼosimiri Mediterenịa nʼakụkụ ụzọ Hetlon, gafee Lebo gawa Zedad,
16 Berothah, and Sibraim (which is on the border between Damascus and Hamath), as far as Hazer-hatticon, which is on the border of Hauran.
site ya ruo Berota na Sibraim (nke dị nʼoke ala dị nʼagbata Damaskọs na Hamat), rukwaa na Haza Hatikon, nke dị nʼoke ala Hauran.
17 So the border will run from the Sea to Hazar-enan, along the northern border of Damascus, with the territory of Hamath to the north. This will be the northern boundary.
Oke ala ahụ ga-esite nʼoke osimiri gbasoro oke ala nke ugwu Damaskọs ruo Haza Enan. Oke ala ndị Hamat ga-adịkwa nʼakụkụ ugwu. Nke a ga-abụ oke ala nke akụkụ ugwu unu.
18 On the east side the border will run between Hauran and Damascus, along the Jordan between Gilead and the land of Israel, to the Eastern Sea and as far as Tamar. This will be the eastern boundary.
Oke ala nʼakụkụ ọwụwa anyanwụ ga-esite nʼagbata Hauran na Damaskọs soro akụkụ osimiri Jọdan, nʼagbata ndị Gilead na ala ndị Izrel ruo nʼosimiri dị nʼọwụwa anyanwụ, ruokwa Tama. Nke a ga-abụkwa oke ala unu nʼakụkụ ọwụwa anyanwụ.
19 On the south side it will run from Tamar to the waters of Meribath-kadesh, and along the Brook of Egypt to the Great Sea. This will be the southern boundary.
Oke ala na ndịda, ọ ga-esite na Tama ruo ọbụladị mmiri Meriba Kadesh, soro ụzọ ọdọ mmiri iyi Ijipt ruo osimiri Mediterenịa. Nke a bụ oke ala ahụ na ndịda.
20 And on the west side, the Great Sea will be the boundary up to a point opposite Lebo-hamath. This will be the western boundary.
Nʼọdịda anyanwụ, osimiri Mediterenịa ga-abụ oke ala, ruo na ncherita ihu ụzọ e si abata Hamat. Nke a bụ oke ala unu nʼakụkụ ọdịda anyanwụ.
21 You are to divide this land among yourselves according to the tribes of Israel.
“Ala niile dị nʼime oke ala ndị a, ka unu ga-eke nʼetiti onwe unu dịka ebo Izrel si dị.
22 You shall allot it as an inheritance for yourselves and for the foreigners who dwell among you and who have children. You are to treat them as native-born Israelites; along with you, they shall be allotted an inheritance among the tribes of Israel.
Keenụ ha ka ha bụrụ ihe nketa nye onwe unu, ma nyekwa ndị ọbịa bi nʼetiti unu, bụ ndị ọbịa niile mụtara ụmụ. Unu ga-agụ ha dịka ndị amụrụ nʼala Izrel. Ha ga-esokwa unu keta oke nʼihe nketa a na-ekenye ndị ebo niile nke Izrel.
23 In whatever tribe a foreigner dwells, you are to assign his inheritance there,” declares the Lord GOD.
A ga-ekenye ndị ọbịa ihe nketa nʼebo ọbụla ha bi nʼetiti ha.” Otu a ka Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị kwubiri.
