Ezekiel 15
1 And thee word of the Lord came vnto me, saying,
Kiugo kĩa Jehova nĩkĩanginyĩrĩire, ngĩĩrwo atĩrĩ:
2 Sonne of man, what commeth of the vine tree aboue all other trees? and of the vine braunch, which is among the trees of ye forest?
“Mũrũ wa mũndũ, mũtĩ wa mũthabibũ ũkĩrĩte rũhonge rwa mũtĩ o wothe wa mĩtĩ ya mũtitũ na kĩ?
3 Shall wood bee taken thereof to doe any worke? or wil men take a pin of it to hang any vessel thereon?
Mbaũ ciaguo irĩ ciathondekwo kĩndũ kĩa bata? Andũ no mathondeke tũhocio twa gũcuurio indo kuuma kũrĩ guo?
4 Behold, it is cast in the fire to be consumed: the fire consumeth both the endes of it, and the middes of it is burnt. Is it meete for any worke?
Ũngĩikio riiko ũtuĩke rũkũ, na mwaki ũũcine mĩena yeerĩ ũũcurie gatagatĩ-rĩ, no ũgĩe bata ũngĩ?
5 Behold, when it was whole, it was meete for no worke: how much lesse shall it bee meete for any worke, when the fire hath consumed it, and it is burnt?
Angĩkorwo rĩrĩa warĩ mũgima ndwagĩire bata o na atĩa-rĩ, wakĩhota atĩa gũthondekwo kĩndũ kĩa bata rĩrĩa wacinwo nĩ mwaki, wacura?
6 Therefore thus sayth the Lord God, As the vine tree, that is among the trees of the forest, which I haue giuen to the fire to be consumed, so will I giue the inhabitants of Ierusalem.
“Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, Mwathani Jehova ekuuga atĩrĩ: O ta ũrĩa heanĩte mũtĩ wa mũthabibũ gatagatĩ-inĩ ka mĩtĩ ĩrĩa ĩngĩ ya mũtitũ, ngaũtua rũkũ rwa gũcinwo na mwaki-rĩ, ũguo noguo ngeeka andũ arĩa matũũraga Jerusalemu.
7 And I will set my face against them: they shall go out from one fire, and another fire shall consume them: and ye shall know, that I am the Lord, when I set my face against them,
Nĩngatũma ũthiũ wakwa ũmoomĩre. O na angĩkorwo nĩmoimĩte mwaki-inĩ-rĩ, no nginya mwaki ũcio ũkaamacina ũmaniine. Hĩndĩ ĩyo nĩguo inyuĩ mũkaamenya atĩ niĩ nĩ niĩ Jehova, rĩrĩa ngatũma ũthiũ wakwa ũmoomĩre.
8 And when I make the lande waste, because they haue greatly offended, saith the Lord God.
Nĩngatũma bũrũri ũkire ihooru nĩ ũndũ nĩmagĩte kwĩhokeka, ũguo nĩguo Mwathani Jehova ekuuga.”
