Ezekiel 30
1 Another message from the Lord came to me, saying,
Okwu Onyenwe anyị ruru m ntị, sị,
2 “Son of man, prophesy and announce that this is what the Lord God says: Weep! This is a terrible day!
“Nwa nke mmadụ, buo amụma sịkwa, ‘Otu a ka Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị na-ekwu, “‘Kwasienụ akwa ike ma sị, “Ewoo, nʼihi ụbọchị ahụ!”
3 The day is soon coming—the Day of the Lord is near. It will be a gloomy, cloudy day, a time of judgment for the nations.
Nʼihi nʼụbọchị ahụ adịla nso, Ụbọchị nke Onyenwe anyị abịala nso, ụbọchị igwe ojii, ụbọchị ga-ewetara mba dị iche iche mbibi.
4 A sword will come to attack Egypt, and there will be anguish in Cush when people are killed in Egypt, when it's robbed of its wealth and the country ruined.
Mma agha ga-abịakwasị Ijipt, ihe mgbu ga-adakwasị Kush. Mgbe ndị e gburu egbu ga-abụ aja dị nʼala, a ga-ekpokọrọkwa akụnụba ya, mebikwaa ntọala ya. Ala ya ga-abụkwa ihe e bibiri ebibi.
5 Cush, Put, and Lud, and many other peoples, as well as Arabia, Kub, and the people of the promised land, they all, like Egypt, will be killed by the sword.
Kush na Libiya, Lidiya na ndị Arebịa niile gwara ọgwa, Kub na ndị mba ọgbụgba ndụ ahụ, na Ijipt ga-eso daa site na mma agha.
6 This is what the Lord says: Egypt's allies will fall, and the country will lose its prestigious position. From Migdol in the north to Syene in the south, they will be killed by the sword, declares the Lord God.
“‘Ọ bụ ihe a ka Onyenwe anyị kwuru: “‘Ndị niile na-akwagide Ijipt ga-ada, nganga niile nke ike ya ga-agwụsịkwa. Site na Migdol ruo nʼAswan, ọ bụ site na mma agha ka ha ga-ada nʼime ya. Otu a ka Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị kwubiri.
7 Egypt will become more of a wasteland than any other country, and its towns will be left in ruins.
Ha ga-atọgbọrọ nʼefu, nʼetiti ala niile tọgbọrọ nʼefu. Obodo ha niile ga-abụ mkpọmkpọ ebe, nʼetiti ọtụtụ obodo e bibiri ebibi.
8 Then they will acknowledge that I am the Lord when I set fire to Egypt and all its allies are crushed.
Mgbe ahụ, ha ga-amata na mụ onwe m bụ Onyenwe anyị, mgbe m tinyesịrị ọkụ nʼIjipt, mgbe m gwepịara ndị niile na-enyere ya aka.
9 At that time I will send messengers in ships to shock Cush out of its sense of security. They will tremble in fear when disasters hit Egypt. Watch out! It's definitely coming!
“‘Nʼụbọchị ahụ, aga m ezipu ndị ozi ndị ga-eji ụgbọ dị iche iche, ka ha gaa menye ndị Kush egwu, bụ ndị onwe ha jụrụ afọ. Oke egwu ga-ejidekwa ha nʼoge ahụ nʼihi ihe dakwasịrị Ijipt, nʼihi ihe ndị a aghaghị imezu.
10 This is what the Lord God says: I will use Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon to take away Egypt's wealth.
“‘Otu a ka Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị kwuru, “‘Aga m esite nʼaka Nebukadneza eze Babilọn bibie igwe ndị agha Ijipt niile.
11 He and his army from the cruelest nation in the world will be brought to destroy the country. They will use their swords to attack Egypt, and they will fill the land with dead bodies.
Ya onwe ya na ndị agha ya, bụ mba kachasị mba niile njọ na-enweghị obi ebere, ka a ga-akpọbata ka ha bịa bibie ala ahụ. Ha ga-amịpụta mma agha ha megide Ijipt, werekwa ozu ndị e gburu egbu tụsasịa nʼala ahụ.
12 I will dry up the rivers and sell the land to wicked people. Using these foreigners I will ruin the land and everything in it. I the Lord have spoken.
Aga m eme ka osimiri Naịl taa. Ọ ga-aghọkwa ala kpọrọ nkụ. Aga m ewerekwa ala ahụ resi mba ndị ọjọọ. Aga m ala ala ahụ na ihe niile dị nʼime ya nʼiyi. Ọ bụkwa ndị mba ọzọ ka m ga-eji mee ya. Mụ onwe m bụ Onyenwe anyị ekwuola ya.
13 This is what the Lord God says: I'm going to destroy the idols and get rid of the images in Memphis. There won't be a prince in Egypt any longer, and I will make everyone in the country terrified.
“‘Otu a ka Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị kwuru, “‘M ga-ala arụsị niile nʼiyi, mekwaa ka ihe niile a kpụrụ akpụ dị na Memfis kwụsị. Onye eze agakwaghị adị ọzọ nʼIjipt, aga m emekwa ka egwu jupụta nʼala ahụ niile.
14 I will destroy Pathros, set Zoan on fire, and punish Thebes.
Aga m emekwa ka Patros tọgbọrọ nʼefu. Aga m etinye ọkụ na Zoan, ma taa Tibs ahụhụ.
15 I will pour out my wrath on Pelusium, Egypt's fortress town, and wipe out the army at Thebes.
M ga-awụkwasị Pelusium ọnụma m, bụ ebe siri ike nke Ijipt, m ga-ebipụkwa igwe ndị Tibs niile.
16 I will set fire to Egypt, Pelusium will suffer, Thebes will be ripped apart, and Memphis will face trouble every day.
Aga m amụnye ọkụ nʼIjipt, Pelusium ga-anọ nʼoke ihe mgbu. A ga-eji ike tipịa Tibs. Memfis ga-anọgidekwa nʼọnọdụ ọjọọ ụbọchị niile.
17 The young soldiers of Heliopolis and Bubastis will fall by the sword, and the people from those towns will be taken captive.
Ụmụ okorobịa Heliopolis na Bubasti ga-anwụ site na mma agha. Obodo ndị a niile ga-abụkwa ndị a dọtara nʼagha.
18 It will be a dark day in Tahpanhes when I break Egypt's power and bring to an end their proud strength. It will be under a cloud as the people go into captivity.
Ụbọchị ahụ ga-agba ọchịchịrị na Tapanhis mgbe m ga-agbaji yoku Ijipt, nʼebe ahụ ka mpako nke ike ya ga-agwụsị. Igwe ojii ga-ekpuchi ya, a ga-adọtakwa obodo nta ya niile nʼagha.
19 This is how I'm going to punish Egypt, and they will acknowledge that I am the Lord.”
Aga m eme ka Ijipt taa ahụhụ dị ukwuu, ka ha mata nʼezie na mụ onwe m bụ Onyenwe anyị.’”
20 On the seventh day of the first month of the eleventh year, a message from the Lord came to me, saying,
O ruo, nʼafọ nke iri na otu ya, nʼụbọchị nke asaa, nʼọnwa nke mbụ, okwu nke Onyenwe anyị ruru m ntị, sị,
21 “Son of man, I have broken the arm of Pharaoh king of Egypt. You can see that it hasn't been bandaged up to heal it, or put it in a splint to provide enough strength to hold a sword.
“Nwa nke mmadụ, agbajiela m ogwe aka Fero, eze Ijipt. Lee, o nwebeghị onye gbara ya ọkpụkpụ, ma ọ bụkwanụ kee ya ihe, ka o sie ike ọzọ ijide mma agha.
22 So this is what the Lord God says: Watch out, because I'm condemning Pharaoh king of Egypt! I will break his arms, both the one that's still good and the one already broken, and I will make him drop his sword.
Nʼihi ya, nke a ka Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị sịrị: Lee, mụ onwe m na-emegide Fero bụ eze Ijipt. Aga m agbaji ogwe aka ya abụọ, ma nke siri ike ma nke gbajiri agbaji na mbụ. Aga m emekwa ka mma agha ya si nʼaka ya dapụ.
23 I will scatter the Egyptians among the different nations and countries.
Aga m achụsa ndị Ijipt nʼetiti mba niile tụsaakwa ha nʼobodo niile,
24 I will make the arms of the king of Babylon strong, and put my sword in his hand, but I will break Pharaoh's arms, and he will moan in pain like someone who's about to die.
meekwa ka ogwe aka abụọ nke eze Babilọn sie ike. Aga m etinye mma agha m nʼaka ya, ma ogwe aka abụọ nke Fero ka m ga-agbajisi. Mgbe ahụ, Fero ga-asụ ude nʼihu eze Babilọn dịka onye e merụrụ ahụ.
25 I will make the arms of Babylon's king strong, but Pharaoh's arms will drop to his sides, weak and useless. Then they will acknowledge that I am the Lord, when I put my sword in the hand of the king of Babylon and he uses it to attack Egypt.
Aga m eme ka ogwe aka abụọ nke eze Babilọn sie ike; ma ogwe aka Fero ga-akpọnwụ. Mgbe ahụ, ha ga-amatakwa na mụ onwe m bụ Onyenwe anyị, mgbe m tinyere mma agha nʼaka eze Babilọn, na mgbe o setịpụrụ ya imegide Ijipt.
26 When I scatter the Egyptians among the different nations and countries, they will acknowledge that I am the Lord.”
Aga m achụsa ndị Ijipt nʼetiti mba niile, fesaa ha nʼala niile. Mgbe ahụ, ha ga-amata na mụ onwe m bụ Onyenwe anyị.”
