< Ezekiel 35 >

1 Then the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
Okwu Onyenwe anyị ruru m ntị, sị,
2 Son of man, let your face be turned to Mount Seir, and be a prophet against it,
“Nwa nke mmadụ, chee ihu imegide nʼugwu Sia, buo amụma megide ya,
3 And say to it, This is what the Lord has said: See, I am against you, O Mount Seir, and my hand will be stretched out against you, and I will make you a waste and a cause for wonder.
sị ya, ‘Otu a ka Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị sịrị: Mụ onwe m na-emegide gị, gị ugwu Sia. Aga m esetikwa aka m imegide gị, mee gị ka ị ghọọ ebe tọgbọrọ nʼefu.
4 I will make your towns unpeopled and you will be a waste; and you will be certain that I am the Lord.
Obodo gị niile ka m ga-eme ka ha ghọọ mkpọmkpọ ebe, gị onwe gị ga-abụkwa ebe tọgbọrọ nʼefu. Mgbe ahụ, ị ga-amata na mụ onwe m bụ Onyenwe anyị.
5 Because yours has been a hate without end, and you have given up the children of Israel to the power of the sword in the time of their trouble, in the time of the punishment of the end:
“‘Nʼihi na i sitere nʼiro ahụ dị gị nʼobi siterịị na mgbe ochie rara ụmụ Izrel nye nʼaka mma agha, nʼoge ha nọ na-ahụju anya, nʼoge ahụ ịta ahụhụ nke ajọ omume ruru nʼogo dị ukwuu.
6 For this cause, by my life, says the Lord, because you have been sinning through blood, blood will come after you.
Nʼihi nke a, ebe m na-adị ndụ, otu a ka Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị kwubiri, aga m enyefe gị nʼaka ndị na-awụsi ọbara. Ọbara ga-achụkwa gị ọsọ. Ebe ọ bụ na ị kpọghị iwusi ọbara asị, ọbara a ga-awụsị nʼime gị ga-achụ gị ọsọ.
7 And I will make Mount Seir a cause for wonder and a waste, cutting off from it all comings and goings.
Aga m eme ka ugwu Sia ghọọ ebe tọgbọrọ nʼefu. Aga m esitekwa nʼime ya bipụ ndị na-abata abata, na ndị na-apụ apụ.
8 I will make his mountains full of those who have been put to death; in your valleys and in all your water-streams men will be falling by the sword.
Ugwu ukwu gị niile ga-ejupụta nʼozu ndị nwụrụ anwụ, ugwu nta niile, na ndagwurugwu niile na mgbawara niile dị nʼala ga-ejupụta nʼozu ndị e ji mma agha gbuo.
9 I will make you waste for ever, and your towns will be unpeopled: and you will be certain that I am the Lord.
Ị gaghị ebulitekwa isi gị ọzọ. Ebe tọgbọrọ nʼefu ka ị ga-abụ ruo ebighị ebi. A gaghị ewuzikwa obodo gị ọzọ. Ị ga-amatakwa na mụ onwe m bụ Onyenwe anyị.
10 Because you have said, The two nations and the two countries are to be mine, and we will take them for our heritage; though the Lord was there:
“‘Nʼihi na ị sịrị, “Mba abụọ ndị a, na ala abụọ ndị a ga-abụ nke anyị, anyị ga-enweta ha,” nʼagbanyeghị na mụ onwe m bụ Onyenwe anyị nọ nʼebe ahụ.
11 For this cause, by my life, says the Lord, I will do to you as you have done in your wrath and in your envy, which you have made clear in your hate for them; and I will make clear to you who I am when you are judged by me.
Nʼihi ya, ebe m na-adị ndụ, otu a ka Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị kwubiri, aga m emeso gị mmeso dịka ịba ụba nke iwe gị na ekworo gị si dị, bụ nke i gosiri mgbe ị kpọrọ ha asị. Aga m emekwa ka ha mata onye m bụ, mgbe m kpesịrị gị ikpe.
12 And you will see that I the Lord have had knowledge of all the bitter things which you have said against the mountains of Israel, saying, They have been made waste, they are given to us to take for our heritage.
Mgbe ahụ, ị ga-amata na mụ onwe m bụ Onyenwe anyị nụrụ okwu ọjọọ ndị ahụ niile i kwuru megide ugwu Izrel niile, na-asị, “E meela ha ebe tọgbọrọ nʼefu, ewerela ha nyefee anyị nʼaka ka anyị dọgbuo ha.”
13 And you have made yourselves great against me with your mouths, increasing your words against me; and it has come to my ears.
Unu nyakwara isi megide m, kwuo okwu kwugide m dịka o si dị unu mma. Anụkwara m ihe niile unu kwuru.
14 This is what the Lord has said: Because you were glad over my land when it was a waste, so will I do to you:
Ihe ndị a ka Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị sịrị, Mgbe ụwa niile na-aṅụrị ọṅụ ka m ga-eme ka ị ghọọ mkpọmkpọ ebe.
15 You will become a waste, O Mount Seir, and all Edom, even all of it: and you will be certain that I am the Lord.
Dịka ị ṅụrịrị ọṅụ mgbe ihe nketa Izrel ghọrọ mkpọmkpọ ebe, otu a ka m ga-esi mesoo gị mmeso. Ị ga-aghọkwa ebe tọgbọrọ nʼefu, gị ugwu Sia, gị na ndị Edọm niile. Mgbe ahụ, ha ga-amata na mụ onwe m bụ Onyenwe anyị.’”
