< Ezekiel 39 >
1 And you, son of man, be a prophet against Gog, and say, These are the words of the Lord: See, I am against you, O Gog, ruler of Rosh, Meshech, and Tubal:
“Iwe mwana wa munthu, nenera modzudzula Gogi ndi kumuwuza kuti Ine Ambuye Yehova ndikuti: ‘Ine ndikudana nawe, iwe Gogi, kalonga wamkulu wa Mesaki ndi Tubala.
2 And turning you round, I will be your guide, and make you come up from the inmost parts of the north; I will make you come on to the mountains of Israel:
Ine ndidzakuzunguza ndi kukupirikitsira kutsogolo. Ndidzakutenga kuchokera kutali kumpoto ndi kukutumiza kuti ukalimbane ndi anthu a ku mapiri a Israeli.
3 And with a blow I will send your bow out of your left hand and your arrows falling from your right hand.
Kenaka Ine ndidzathyola uta wa mʼdzanja lako lamanzere ndipo ndidzagwetsa mivi ya mʼdzanja lako lamanja.
4 On the mountains of Israel you will come down, you and all your forces and the peoples who are with you: I will give you to cruel birds of every sort and to the beasts of the field to be their food.
Udzagwa ku mapiri a ku Israeli, iwe ndi magulu ako onse ankhondo ndiponso mitundu ya anthu imene ili nawe. Ndidzakusandutsa chakudya cha mitundu yonse ya mbalame zodya nyama, ndiponso cha zirombo zakuthengo.
5 You will come down in the open field: for I have said it, says the Lord.
Udzafera pa mtetete kuthengo, pakuti Ine ndayankhula. Ndikutero Ine Ambuye Yehova.
6 And I will send a fire on Magog, and on those who are living in the sea-lands without fear: and they will be certain that I am the Lord.
Ndidzatumiza moto pa Magogi ndi pa onse amene amakhala mwamtendere mʼmbali mwa nyanja. Choncho adzadziwa kuti Ine ndine Yehova.’
7 And I will make clear my holy name among my people Israel; I will no longer let my holy name be made unclean: and the nations will be certain that I am the Lord, the Holy One in Israel.
“Ndidzachititsa kuti dzina langa loyera lidziwike pakati pa anthu anga Israeli. Sindidzalola kuti dzina langa liyipitsidwenso, ndipo mitundu ya anthu idzadziwa kuti Ine Yehova ndine Woyera mu Israeli.
8 See, it is coming and it will be done, says the Lord; this is the day of which I have given word.
Zikubwera! Ndipo zidzachitikadi, ndikutero Ine Ambuye Yehova. Ndiye tsiku limene ndinanena lija.
9 And those who are living in the towns of Israel will go out and make fires of the instruments of war, burning the body-covers and the breastplates, the bows and the arrows and the sticks and the spears, and for seven years they will make fires of them:
“Pamenepo okhala mʼmizinda ya Israeli adzatuluka ndipo adzasonkhanitsa zida zankhondo kuti zikhale nkhuni ndipo adzazitentha; zishango ndi lihawo, mauta ndi mivi, zibonga za nkhondo ndi mikondo. Adzazisonkhera moto kwa zaka zisanu ndi ziwiri.
10 And they will take no wood out of the field or have any cut down in the woods; for they will make their fires of the instruments of war: and they will take by force the property of those who took their property, and go off with the goods of those who took their goods, says the Lord.
Iwo sadzatolera nkhuni kuthengo kapena kukadula ku nkhalango, chifukwa adzasonkhera moto zidazo. Ndipo iwo adzafunkha amene anawafunkhawo, ndi kulanda chuma cha amene anawalanda, ndikutero Ine Ambuye Yehova.
11 And it will come about in those days, that I will give to Gog a last resting-place there in Israel, in the valley of Abarim on the east of the sea: and those who go through will be stopped: and there Gog and all his people will be put to rest, and the place will be named, The valley of Hamon-gog.
“Pa tsiku limenelo ndidzamupatsa Gogi manda mu Israeli, mʼchigwa cha apaulendo, kummawa kwa Nyanja Yakufa. Mandawo adzatseka njira ya apaulendo, chifukwa Gogi ndi gulu lake lankhondo adzayikidwa kumeneko. Ndipo chigwacho chidzatchedwa chigwa cha gulu lankhondo la Gogi.
12 And the children of Israel will be seven months putting them in the earth, so as to make the land clean.
“Nyumba ya Israeli idzakhala ikukwirira mitembo kwa miyezi isanu ndi iwiri ndi cholinga choyeretsa dziko.
13 And all the people of the land will put them in the earth; and it will be to their honour in the day when I let my glory be seen, says the Lord.
Anthu onse a mʼdzikomo adzakwirira nawo mitembo. Ntchito imeneyo adzatchuka nayo pa tsiku limene ndidzaonetsa ulemerero wanga. Ndikutero Ine Ambuye Yehova.
14 And they will put on one side men to do no other work but to go through the land and put in the earth the rest of those who are still on the face of the land, to make it clean: after seven months are ended they are to make a search.
“Patapita miyezi isanu ndi iwiri adzalemba ntchito anthu ena odzayenda mʼdziko lonse kufunafuna mitembo imene inatsalira nʼkumayikwirira. Choncho adzayeretseratu dzikolo.
15 And while they go through the land, if anyone sees a man's bone, he is to put up a sign by the place till those who are doing the work have put it in the earth in the valley of Hamon-gog.
Poyenda mʼdzikomo azidzati akaona fupa la munthu azidzayikapo chizindikiro pambali pake mpaka okumba manda atakalikwirira fupalo ku chigwa cha gulu lankhondo la Gogi.
16 And there they will put all the army of Gog in the earth. So they will make the land clean.
(Komwekonso kudzakhala mzinda wotchedwa Gulu la nkhondo). Ndipo potero adzayeretsa dziko.
17 And you, son of man, this is what the Lord has said: Say to the birds of every sort and to all the beasts of the field, Get together and come; come together on every side to the offering which I am putting to death for you, a great offering on the mountains of Israel, so that you may have flesh for your food and blood for your drink.
“Tsono iwe mwana wa munthu, Ine Ambuye Yehova ndikuti: Itana mbalame za mitundu yonse ndi zirombo zonse zakuthengo ndipo uziwuze kuti, ‘Sonkhanani ndipo bwerani kuchokera ku mbali zonse ku nsembe imene ndikukonzerani inu, nsembe yayikulu pa mapiri a Israeli. Kumeneko inu mudzadya mnofu ndi kumwa magazi.
18 The flesh of the men of war will be your food, and your drink the blood of the princes of the earth, of sheep and lambs, of he-goats, of oxen, all of them fat beasts of Bashan.
Mudzadya mnofu wa anthu ankhondo amphamvu ndi kumwa magazi a akalonga a dziko lapansi. Onsewo anaphedwa ngati nkhosa zazimuna, ana ankhosa onenepa, mbuzi ndiponso ngati ngʼombe zazimuna zonenepa za ku Basani.
19 You will go on feasting on the fat till you are full, and drinking the blood till you are overcome with it, of my offering which I have put to death for you.
Ku phwando lansembe limene ndikukonzera inulo, mudzadya zonona mpaka kukhuta ndi kumwa magazi mpaka kuledzera.
20 At my table you will have food in full measure, horses and war-carriages, great men and all the men of war, says the Lord.
Pa tebulo langa mudzakhuta pakudya akavalo ndi okwerapo ake, anthu amphamvu ndi asilikali amitundumitundu,’ ndikutero Ine Ambuye Yehova.
21 And I will put my glory among the nations, and all the nations will see my punishments which I have put into effect, and my hand which I have put on them.
“Ine ndidzaonetsa ulemerero wanga pakati pa anthu a mitundu ina, ndipo adzaona mmene ndidzawalangire ndikadzayika dzanja langa pa iwo.
22 So the children of Israel will be certain that I am the Lord their God, from that day and for the future.
Kuyambira tsiku limenelo mpaka mʼtsogolo Aisraeli adzadziwa kuti Ine ndine Yehova Mulungu wawo.
23 And it will be clear to the nations that the children of Israel were taken away prisoners for their evil-doing; because they did wrong against me, and my face was covered from them: so I gave them up into the hands of their attackers, and they all came to their end by the sword.
Ndipo anthu a mitundu ina adzadziwa kuti anthu a Israeli anatengedwa ukapolo chifukwa cha tchimo lawo, chifukwa anali osakhulupirika kwa Ine. Choncho Ine ndinawabisira nkhope yanga ndi kuwapereka kwa adani awo. Motero anaphedwa pa nkhondo.
24 In the measure of their unclean ways and their sins, so I did to them; and I kept my face covered from them.
Ndinawachita zimenezi chifukwa cha kunyansa kwawo ndi zolakwa zawo, ndipo ndinawabisira nkhope yanga.
25 For this cause the Lord has said, Now I will let the fate of Jacob be changed, and I will have mercy on all the children of Israel, and will take care of the honour of my holy name.
“Nʼchifukwa chake Ine Ambuye Yehova ndikuti: Tsopano ndidzakhazikanso pa bwino banja la Yakobo. Ndidzachitira chifundo Aisraeli onse, ndipo ndidzateteza dzina langa loyera.
26 And they will be conscious of their shame and of all the wrong which they have done against me, when they are living in their land with no sense of danger and with no one to be a cause of fear to them;
Anthuwo akadzakhala mwamtendere mʼdziko lawo popanda wina wowaopseza, pamenepo adzayiwala zamanyazi zawo zimene zinawachitikira chifukwa chosandikhulupirira Ine.
27 When I have taken them back from among the peoples and got them together out of the lands of their haters, and have made myself holy in them before the eyes of a great number of nations.
Ndidzawabwezeranso kwawo kuchokera pakati pa anthu a mitundu ina ndipo ndidzawasonkhanitsa kuchokera ku mayiko a adani awo. Poteropo ndidzaonetsa pamaso pa anthu a mitundu yambiri kuti ndine Woyera.
28 And they will be certain that I am the Lord their God, because I sent them away as prisoners among the nations, and have taken them together back to their land; and I have not let one of them be there any longer.
Pamenepo iwo adzadziwa kuti Ine ndine Yehova Mulungu wawo, ngakhale kuti ndinawapereka ku ukapolo pakati pa anthu a mitundu ina. Ine ndidzawasonkhanitsanso ku dziko lawo osasiyako wina mʼmbuyo.
29 And my face will no longer be covered from them: for I have sent the out-flowing of my spirit on the children of Israel, says the Lord.
Ine sindidzawabisiranso nkhope yanga, pakuti ndidzathira Mzimu wanga pa Aisraeli. Ndikutero Ine Ambuye Yehova.”
