Ezekiel 29
1 In the tenth year, in the tenth month, on the eleventh day of the month, the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
Waggaa kurnaffaatti, jiʼa kurnaffaa keessa, guyyaa kudha lammaffaatti dubbiin Waaqayyoo akkana jedhee gara koo dhufe:
2 “Son of man, set your face against Pharaoh, the king of Egypt, and you shall prophesy about him and about all of Egypt.
“Yaa ilma namaa, fuula kee gara Faraʼoon mooticha Gibxitti garagalfadhuutii isaa fi warra Gibxi hundaan mormuudhaan raajii dubbadhu.
3 Speak, and you shall say: Thus says the Lord God: Behold, I am against you, Pharaoh, king of Egypt, you great dragon, who rests in the midst of your rivers. And you say: ‘Mine is the river, and I have made myself.’
Isatti dubbadhuutii akkana jedhiin: ‘Waaqayyo Gooftaan akkana jedha: “‘Ati bineensi guddichi, kan lageen kee gidduu ciiftu, yaa Faraʼoon mooticha Gibxi, ani sitti nan kaʼa. Ati, “Lagni Abbayyaa kan koo ti; anatu ofuma kootiif isa uummate” jetta.
4 But I will place a bridle in your jaws. And I will adhere the fish of your rivers to your scales. And I will draw you out of the midst of your rivers, and all your fish will adhere to your scales.
Ani garuu haʼoo kee keessa hokkoo kaaʼee akka qurxummiiwwan lageen keetii qola keetti maxxanan nan godha. Ani qurxummiiwwan qola keetti maxxanan hunda wajjinis lageen kee keessaa harkiseen si baasa.
5 And I will cast you into the desert, with all the fish of your river. You will fall upon the surface of the earth; you will not be taken up, nor gathered together. I have given you to the beasts of the earth and to the birds of the air, to be devoured.
Siʼii fi qurxummiiwwan lageen keetii hunda gammoojjiitti nan gata. Ati dirree duwwaa irratti ni kufta; walitti hin qabamtu; hin awwaalamtus. Ani bineensota lafaatii fi allaattii samiitiif nyaata godheen si kenna.
6 And all the inhabitants of Egypt shall know that I am the Lord. For you have been a staff made of reed to the house of Israel.
Warri Gibxi keessa jiraatan hundis akka ani Waaqayyo taʼe ni beeku. “‘Ati mana Israaʼeliif ulee shambaqqoo taateerta.
7 When they took hold of you with the hand, you broke, and so you wounded all of their shoulders. And when they leaned on you, you shattered, and so you injured all of their lower backs.
Yommuu isaan harkaan si qabatanitti baqaqxee gatiittii isaanii waraante; yommuu isaan sitti irkatanittis ati caccabdee akka dugdi isaanii hollatu goote.
8 Because of this, thus says the Lord God: Behold, I will lead the sword over you, and I will destroy both man and beast from among you.
“‘Kanaafuu Waaqayyo Gooftaan akkana jedha: Ani goraadee sitti fidee namoota keetii fi horii isaanii nan fixa.
9 And the land of Egypt will be a desert and a wilderness. And they shall know that I am the Lord. For you have said, ‘The river is mine, and I have made it.’
Gibxi duwwaa fi ona taati; isaanis akka ani Waaqayyo taʼe ni beeku. “‘Ati, “Lagni Abbayyaa kan koo ti; anatu isa uume” jetteertaatii;
10 Therefore, behold, I am against you and against your rivers. And I will make the land of Egypt into a wilderness, destroyed by the sword from the tower of Syene all the way to the borders of Ethiopia.
kanaafuu ani sitti kaʼeera; lageen keettis kaʼeera; biyya Gibxis Migdoolii jalqabee hamma Aswaanitti, hamma daarii Itoophiyaatti diigamtuu fi ontuu nan godha.
11 The foot of man will not pass through it, and the foot of cattle will not walk in it. And it will be uninhabited for forty years.
Miilli namaa yookaan kotteen horii karaa sana hin darbu; namni tokko iyyuu hamma waggaa afurtamaatti ishee keessa hin jiraatu.
12 And I will set the land of Egypt in desolation, in the midst of desolate lands, and its cities in the midst of overturned cites. And they will be desolate for forty years. And I will scatter the Egyptians among the nations, and I will disperse them among the lands.
Ani biyyoota onan gidduutti biyya Gibxi nan onsa; magaalaawwan ishees magaalaawwan diigaman gidduutti waggaa afurtama ni onu. Namoota Gibxi immoo saboota keessa nan faffacaasa; biyyoota keessas isaan nan bittinneessa.
13 For thus says the Lord God: After the end of forty years, I will gather the Egyptians from the peoples among whom they had been scattered.
“‘Ammas Waaqayyo Gooftaan akkana jedha: Dhuma waggaa afurtamaatti ani namoota Gibxi saboota isaan itti bittinneeffaman keessaa walitti nan qaba.
14 And I will lead back the captivity of Egypt, and I will collect them in the land of Pathros, in the land of their nativity. And in that place, they will be a lowly kingdom.
Ani boojuudhaa isaan deebisee Phaxroos biyya abbootii isaaniitti isaan nan galcha. Achittis isaan mootummaa gad aanaa ni taʼu.
15 It will be the lowest among the other kingdoms, and it will no longer be exalted above the nations. And I will diminish them, lest they rule over the Gentiles.
Isheenis mootummoota keessaa gad aantuu ni taati; deebitees saboota kaaniin olitti gonkumaa ol of hin kaaftu. Anis akka isheen lammata saboota kaan hin bulchineef ishee nan dadhabsiisa.
16 And they will no longer be the confidence of the house of Israel, teaching iniquity, so that they may flee and follow them. And they shall know that I am the Lord God.”
Biyyi Gibxi siʼachi uummata Israaʼeliif irkoo hin taatu; yoo isaan gargaarsaaf gara isheetti deebiʼan garuu isheen yaadannoo cubbuu isaanii taati. Ergasii isaan akka ani Waaqayyo Gooftaa taʼe ni beeku.’”
17 And it happened that, in the twenty-seventh year, in the first month, on the first of the month, the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
Waggaa digdamii torbaffaatti, jiʼa tokkoffaa keessa, guyyaa tokkoffaatti dubbiin Waaqayyoo akkana jedhee gara koo dhufe:
18 “Son of man, Nebuchadnezzar, the king of Babylon, has caused his army to serve with great servility against Tyre. Every head was shaven, and every shoulder was stripped of hair. And wages have not been paid to him, nor to his army, for Tyre, for the service by which he served for me against it.
“Yaa ilma namaa, Nebukadnezar mootiin Baabilon duula jabaadhaan loltoota isaa Xiiroositti kaaseera; mataan nama hundaa molaaʼeera; gatiittiin nama hundaas luqqaʼeera. Taʼus innii fi loltoonni isaa duula jabaa Xiiroositti kaasaniin buʼaa tokko illee hin arganne.
19 Because of this, thus says the Lord God: Behold, I will station Nebuchadnezzar, the king of Babylon, in the land of Egypt. And he will take its multitude, and he will prey upon its profits, and he will plunder its spoils. And this shall be the wages for his army
Kanaafuu Waaqayyo Gooftaan akkana jedha: Ani biyya Gibxi Nebukadnezar mootii Baabiloniif nan kenna; innis ishee boojiʼee qabeenya ishee saama. Kunis mindaa loltoota isaa taʼa.
20 and for the work by which he has served against it. I have given to him the land of Egypt, because he has labored for me, says the Lord God.
Ani Gibxiin gatii dadhabbii isaa godhee isaaf kenneera; innii fi loltoonni isaa waan kana anaaf hojjetaniiruutii, jedha Waaqayyo Gooftaan.
21 In that day, a horn will spring forth for the house of Israel, and I will give to you an open mouth in their midst. And they shall know that I am the Lord.”
“Ani Guyyaa sana akka manni Israaʼel gaanfa baasu nan godha; isaan gidduuttis afaan kee nan saaqa. Isaanis akka ani Waaqayyo taʼe ni beeku.”
