< Ezekiel 38 >
1 And the word of Jehovah came unto me, saying,
Okwu Onyenwe anyị ruru m ntị, sị,
2 Son of man, set thy face against Gog, the land of Magog, the prince of Rosh, Meshech, and Tubal, and prophesy against him,
“Nwa nke mmadụ, chee ihu nʼala Magog, bukwaa amụma megide Gog, bụ onyeisi nke Meshek na Tubal. Buo amụma megide ya,
3 and say, Thus saith the Lord Jehovah: Behold, I am against thee, O Gog, prince of Rosh, Meshech, and Tubal.
sị, ‘Otu a ka Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị kwuru: Ana m edo onwe m imegide gị, Gog, eze ukwu ndị Meshek na Tubal.
4 And I will turn thee back, and put hooks into thy jaws, and I will bring thee forth, and all thine army, horses and horsemen, all of them thoroughly equipped, a great assemblage with targets and shields, all of them handling swords:
Aga m echigharị gị, tinye gị nko nʼagba gị abụọ, jiri ya kpụpụta gị na usuu ndị agha gị niile, na ịnyịnya gị, na ndị na-agba ịnyịnya gị na ihe agha ha, na usuu ndị agha gị niile, ndị ji ọta ukwu na ọta nta, ndị niile na-ejide mma agha ha.
5 Persia, Cush, and Phut with them, all of them with shield and helmet;
Peshịa na Itiopia, na Put, ga-esonyere ha, ha niile ga-ejikwa ọta ha na okpu agha ha.
6 Gomer, and all his bands; the house of Togarmah from the uttermost north, and all his bands; — many peoples with thee.
Goma na usuu ndị agha ya niile, na ndị agha Bet Togama ndị si nʼakụkụ ugwu, dị ebe dị anya na ọtụtụ ndị mba ọzọ ga-eso gị.
7 Be thou prepared, and prepare for thyself thou, and all thine assemblage that are assembled unto thee, and be thou a guard unto them.
“‘Jikere! Jikere onwe gị, gị onwe gị na usuu ndị agha ahụ nọ gị gburugburu, gị Gog, bụrụkwa onyendu ha.
8 After many days shalt thou be visited; at the end of years thou shalt come into the land brought back from the sword [and] gathered out of many peoples, upon the mountains of Israel which have been a perpetual waste: but it is brought forth out from the peoples, and they shall all of them be dwelling in safety.
Mgbe ọtụtụ ụbọchị gasịrị, a ga-akpọlite gị ibu agha. Nʼogologo oge dị nʼihu, ị ga-ebuso ala ahụ agha bụ ala ahụ na-enwetaghachi onwe ya site na mbibi nke ibu agha; ala ahụ e si na mba dị iche iche chịkọtaa ndị bi nʼime ya, mee ka ha birikwa nʼugwu niile nke Izrel ahụ naara atọgbọ nʼefu. E bulatara ha site na mba dị iche iche, ma ugbu a, ha anọrọla nʼudo.
9 And thou shalt ascend, thou shalt come like a storm, thou shalt be like a cloud to cover the land, thou, and all thy bands, and many peoples with thee.
Gị onwe gị, na ndị agha gị niile, na ọtụtụ ndị mba ahụ dị iche iche ndị na-eso gị, jiri ọsọ, dịka ikuku siri ike, rigoo, kpuchie ala ahụ dịka igwe ojii.
10 Thus saith the Lord Jehovah: It shall even come to pass in that day that things shall come into thy mind, and thou shalt think an evil thought;
“‘Otu a ka Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị kwuru: Nʼụbọchị ahụ, echiche ọjọọ ga-abata nʼobi gị, mgbe ị na-atule ọtụtụ ihe dị iche iche nʼobi gị.
11 and thou shalt say, I will go up to the land of unwalled villages; I will come to them that are in quiet, that dwell in safety, all of them dwelling without walls, and having neither bars nor gates,
Ị ga-asị, “Aga m ebuli megide nʼala na-enweghị mgbidi, aga m awakpo ndị nọ nʼudo na-adịghị atụ anya nsogbu ọbụla, ha niile bụ ndị bi nʼebe na-enweghị mgbidi, ha enweghịkwa ibo ọnụ ụzọ na mkpọrọ e ji akpọchi ha.
12 to seize a spoil, and to take a prey; to turn thy hand against the waste places that are [now] inhabited, and against a people gathered out of the nations, which have gotten cattle and goods, that dwell in the middle of the land.
Aga m akwata ihe nkwata, lụtakwa ihe nlụta nʼagha. Aga m eweli aka m megide obodo ndị a niile e wugharịrị ewugharị, megidekwa ndị a niile e si na mba dị iche iche chịkọtaa, bụ ndị bara ọgaranya nʼanụ ụlọ na ngwongwo dị iche iche, ndị bikwa nʼetiti ala a.”
13 Sheba, and Dedan, and the merchants of Tarshish, with all the young lions thereof, shall say unto thee, Art thou come to seize a spoil? hast thou gathered thine assemblage to take a prey? to carry away silver and gold, to take cattle and goods, to seize a great spoil?
Ndị Sheba na Dedan, na ndị ahịa Tashish niile, na ụmụ ọdụm ya niile ga-ajụ gị, “Ị bịara ịkwata ihe nkwata? Ị chịkọtara usuu ndị agha gị nʼihi ịkwara ihe nlụta, na iburu ọlaọcha na ọlaedo, na ịchịrị igwe anụ ụlọ ha, na ngwongwo ha, na ịkwakọrọ ihe ha nwere nʼike?”’
14 Therefore prophesy, son of man, and say unto Gog, Thus saith the Lord Jehovah: In that day when my people Israel dwelleth in safety, shalt thou not know [it]?
“Nʼihi ya, nwa nke mmadụ, buo amụma sị Gog, ‘Otu a ka Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị kwuru: Nʼụbọchị ahụ mgbe ndị m bụ Izrel na-ebi nʼudo nʼala ha, ọ bụ na ị gaghị ahụta ya?
15 And thou shalt come from thy place out of the uttermost north, thou and many peoples with thee, all of them riding upon horses, a great assemblage and a mighty army.
Ị ga-esi nʼebe obibi gị dị nʼugwu bịa, gị na ọtụtụ mba dị iche iche, ndị na-anọkwasị nʼịnyịnya. Ha ga-adị ukwuu, bụrụ ndị agha dị ike.
16 And thou shalt come up against my people Israel as a cloud to cover the land — it shall be at the end of days — and I will bring thee against my land, that the nations may know me, when I shall be hallowed in thee, O Gog, before their eyes.
Unu ga-abịa ibuso ndị m Izrel agha, kpuchie ala ha dịka igwe ojii. Nʼụbọchị ndị ahụ dị nʼihu, aga m eme ka gị, bụ Gog, bịa buso ala m agha, ka mba niile si otu a mata m, mgbe m mere ka ịdị nsọ m pụta ìhè nʼanya ha site nʼihe m ga-eme.’
17 Thus saith the Lord Jehovah: Art thou not he of whom I have spoken in old time through my servants the prophets of Israel, who prophesied in those days, for [many] years, that I would bring thee against them?
“‘Ihe ndị a ka Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị kwuru: Ọ bụ gị, bụ onye ahụ m kwuru okwu banyere ya nʼoge gara aga, site nʼọnụ ndị ohu m, bụ ndị amụma Izrel, ndị buru amụma ọtụtụ afọ na mgbe ahụ, sị, na m ga-eme ka ị megide ndị m.
18 And it shall come to pass in that day, in the day when Gog shall come against the land of Israel, saith the Lord Jehovah, [that] my fury shall come up in my face;
Lee ihe ga-eme nʼụbọchị ahụ. Mgbe Gog busoro ala Izrel agha, ọ ga-esi otu a kpalie iwe m dị ọkụ. Otu a ka Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị kwupụtara.
19 for in my jealousy, in the fire of my wrath have I spoken, Verily in that day there shall be a great shaking in the land of Israel;
Nʼihi na esitere m nʼịnụ ọkụ nke obi m, na oke iwe m kwupụta sị, na ala ọma jijiji dị ukwuu ga-adị nʼIzrel nʼụbọchị ahụ.
20 so that the fish of the sea, and the fowl of the heavens, and the beasts of the field, and all creeping things which creep upon the earth, and all mankind that are upon the face of the earth shall shake at my presence; and the mountains shall be thrown down, and the steep places shall fall, and every wall shall fall to the ground.
Azụ niile dị nʼoke osimiri, na anụ ufe nke eluigwe, na anụ ọhịa, na ihe niile na-akpụ akpụ, na mmadụ niile nọ nʼelu ụwa ga-ama jijiji nʼihu m. A ga-akwatu ugwu niile, ebe niile dị mkputamkpu ga-adarukwa ala.
21 And I will call for a sword against him throughout all my mountains, saith the Lord Jehovah: every man's sword shall be against his brother.
Aga m akpọlite mma agha ka o megide Gog nʼugwu m niile. Onye ọbụla ga-ejikwa mma agha ya megide nwanne ya nwoke. Otu a ka Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị kwubiri ya.
22 And I will enter into judgment with him with pestilence and with blood; and I will rain upon him, and upon his bands, and upon the many peoples that are with him, overflowing rain and great hailstones, fire and brimstone.
Aga m eji ọrịa na-efe efe na iwusi ọbara kpee ya ikpe. Aga m awụkwasị ya na ndị agha ya na ọtụtụ mba dị iche iche ndị ahụ so ya, oke mmiri ozuzo na akụmmiri, na nkume ọkụ.
23 And I will magnify myself, and sanctify myself, and I will be known in the eyes of many nations, and they shall know that I [am] Jehovah.
Otu a ka m ga-esi gosi ịdị ukwuu m, na ịdị nsọ nke aha m. Aga m emekwa ka a mara m nʼanya mba niile dị iche iche. Mgbe ahụ, ha ga-amata na mụ onwe m bụ Onyenwe anyị.’
