< Ezekiel 35 >

1 A message from the Lord came to me, saying,
Ningĩ kiugo kĩa Jehova nĩkĩanginyĩrĩire, ngĩĩrwo atĩrĩ:
2 “Son of man, face towards Mount Seir and prophesy against it
“Mũrũ wa mũndũ, erekeria ũthiũ waku Kĩrĩma gĩa Seiru: kĩrathĩre ũhoro wa gũgĩũkĩrĩra,
3 Announce that this is what the Lord God says: Watch out, because I'm condemning you, Mount Seir. I'm going to attack you and turn you into a wasteland.
ũkĩĩre atĩrĩ: ‘Mwathani Jehova ekuuga ũũ: Wee Kĩrĩma gĩa Seiru, nĩngũgũũkĩrĩra, na ngũtambũrũkĩrie guoko gwakwa nginya ndũme wanangĩke ũkire ihooru.
4 I will ruin your towns; you will be completely devastated. Then you will acknowledge that I am the Lord.
Nĩngatũma matũũra maku manangwo nawe nĩũgaakira ihooru. Hĩndĩ ĩyo nĩũkamenya atĩ niĩ nĩ niĩ Jehova.
5 Because of your lasting hatred for the Israelites you let them be attacked with swords as they went through terrible disasters when the time of their punishment was coming to an end.
“‘Tondũ wee-rĩ, kuuma o matukũ ma tene nĩũtũũrĩtie muku na andũ a Isiraeli na ũkĩmaneana mooragwo na rũhiũ rwa njora, rĩrĩa maarĩ na mũtino, o hĩndĩ ĩrĩa iherithia rĩao rĩehĩrĩire,
6 So as I live, declares the Lord God, I will let you be violently attacked and chased down. Since you did not hate bloodshed, bloodshed will come after you.
nĩ ũndũ ũcio, Mwathani Jehova oigĩte atĩrĩ, ti-itherũ o ta ũrĩa niĩ ndũũraga muoyo-rĩ, nĩngakũneana ũitwo thakame, nayo nĩĩgathingatana nawe. Kuona atĩ ndwamenire ũiti wa thakame-rĩ, ũiti wa thakame nĩũgaathingatana nawe.
7 I will turn Mount Seir into a ruined wasteland. I will wipe out anyone who leaves or who tries to return.
Nakĩo Kĩrĩma gĩa Seiru nĩngatũma kĩanangwo gĩkire ihooru, na njũrage arĩa othe mokaga kuo na makoimagara.
8 I will fill its mountains with the dead. Those killed by the sword will fall in your hills, valleys, and all your ravines.
Nĩngaiyũria irĩma ciaku na arĩa moragĩtwo; arĩa moragĩtwo na rũhiũ rwa njora makaagũa tũrĩma-inĩ twaku, na ituamba-inĩ ciaku, o na mĩkuru-inĩ yaku yothe.
9 I will ruin you forever. Your towns will not be inhabited again. Then you will acknowledge that I am the Lord.
Nĩngatũma ũtũũre ũkirĩte ihooru nginya tene, namo matũũra maku matigatũũrwo. Hĩndĩ ĩyo nĩũkamenya atĩ niĩ nĩ niĩ Jehova.
10 Because you said, ‘These two nations and their lands belong to us, and we will take them over, even though the Lord was there with them,’
“‘Tondũ uugĩte atĩrĩ, “Ndũrĩrĩ ici cierĩ na mabũrũri maya nĩigatuĩka ciitũ, na tũciĩgwatĩre,” o na gwatuĩka atĩ niĩ Jehova ndaarĩ kuo,
11 then as I live, declares the Lord God, I will deal with you in the same way that you showed anger and jealousy to them in your hatred of them. They will realize that I'm punishing you because of the way you treated them.
nĩ ũndũ ũcio, Mwathani Jehova oigĩte atĩrĩ, ti-itherũ o ta ũrĩa niĩ ndũũraga muoyo-rĩ, nĩngagwĩka maũndũ maringaine na marakara maku na ũiru waku, iria wonanirie ũrĩ na rũmena harĩo, na nĩngatũma menyeke gatagatĩ-inĩ kao hĩndĩ ĩrĩa ngaamũtuĩra ciira.
12 You will also realize that I, the Lord, heard all the nasty things you said about the mountainous land of Israel when you announced, ‘The mountains have been left empty; they're ours to take!’
Hĩndĩ ĩyo nĩũkamenya atĩ niĩ Jehova nĩnjiguĩte maũndũ mothe ma kĩnyararo marĩa warĩtie ma gũũkĩrĩra irĩma cia bũrũri wa Isiraeli. Woigire atĩrĩ, “Nĩcianangĩtwo na ikaneanwo kũrĩ ithuĩ tũcitambuure.”
13 You made a lot of boasts attacking me—you had much to say against me. I heard it for myself!
Nĩmwerahire na mũkĩaria maũndũ ma kũnjũkĩrĩra mũtekwĩgirĩrĩria na niĩ ngĩigua maũndũ macio.
14 This is what the Lord God says: I will destroy you as everyone else in the world celebrates.
Mwathani Jehova ekuuga ũũ: Rĩrĩa thĩ yothe ĩgaakorwo ĩgĩcanjamũka, nĩngatũma ũkire ihooru.
15 Just as you celebrated when Israel was destroyed, I will do the same to you. Mount Seir, you will become a wasteland, and so will the rest of Edom. Then they will acknowledge that I am the Lord.”
Tondũ nĩwakenire rĩrĩa igai rĩa andũ a nyũmba ya Isiraeli rĩanangirwo rĩgĩkira ihooru-rĩ, ũguo noguo ngagwĩka o nawe. Wee Kĩrĩma gĩa Seiru, nĩũgakirio ihooru, wee mwene o na bũrũri wa Edomu wothe. Hĩndĩ ĩyo nĩmakamenya atĩ niĩ nĩ niĩ Jehova.’”
