< Ezekiel 28 >

1 The word of the Lord came againe vnto me, saying,
Kiugo kĩa Jehova nĩkĩanginyĩrĩire, ngĩĩrwo atĩrĩ:
2 Sonne of man, say vnto the prince of Tyrus, Thus saieth the Lord God, Because thine heart is exalted, and thou hast said, I am a God, I sit in the seat of God in ye mids of the sea, yet thou art but a man and not God, and though thou didest thinke in thine heart, that thou wast equall with God,
“Mũrũ wa mũndũ, ĩra mũnene wa Turo atĩrĩ, ‘Mwathani Jehova oigĩte ũũ: “‘Nĩ ũndũ ngoro yaku nĩĩyambararĩtie, uugaga atĩrĩ, “Niĩ ndĩ ngai; njikaragĩra gĩtĩ gĩa ũthamaki kĩa ngai kũu iria gatagatĩ.” No wee ũrĩ mũndũ na ndũrĩ ngai, o na watuĩka wĩciiragia atĩ ũrĩ mũũgĩ o ta ngai.
3 Behold, thou art wiser then Daniel: there is no secrete, that they can hide from thee.
Wee-rĩ, ũkĩrĩ mũũgĩ gũkĩra Danieli? Anga gũtirĩ hitho ũngĩhithwo?
4 With thy wisedome and thine vnderstanding thou hast gotten thee riches, and hast gotten golde and siluer into thy treasures.
Tondũ wa ũũgĩ waku na ũmenyo waku, nĩwĩgĩĩrĩire na ũtonga, na ũkehaĩra thahabu na betha mĩthiithũ-inĩ yaku.
5 By thy great wisedome and by thine occupying hast thou increased thy riches, and thine heart is lifted vp because of thy riches.
Tondũ wa ũmenyi waku mũnene wa wonjoria, nĩwĩongereire ũtonga, na nĩ tondũ wa ũtonga waku, ngoro yaku nĩĩgĩĩte na mwĩtĩĩo.
6 Therefore thus sayeth the Lord God, Because thou didest thinke in thine heart, that thou wast equall with God,
“‘Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Mwathani Jehova ekuuga ũũ: “‘Tondũ wĩciiragia ũrĩ mũũgĩ, ũkohĩga o ta ngai-rĩ,
7 Behold, therefore I wil bring strangers vpon thee, euen the terrible nations: and they shall drawe their swordes against the beautie of thy wisedome, and they shall defile thy brightnes.
nĩngũkũrehithĩria andũ a kũngĩ magũũkĩrĩre, nacio nĩ ndũrĩrĩ iria itarĩ tha o na hanini; nĩigacomora hiũ ciacio cia njora ciũkĩrĩre ũthaka waku na ũũgĩ waku, na itheecange riiri waku mũcangararu.
8 They shall cast thee downe to the pit, and thou shalt die the death of them, that are slaine in the middes of the sea.
Nĩmagagũikũrũkia magũkinyie irima-inĩ, na nĩũgaakua gĩkuũ kĩa ũhinya kũu gatagatĩ ka iria.
9 Wilt thou say then before him, that slayeth thee, I am a god? but thou shalt be a man, and no God, in the hands of him that slayeth thee.
Hĩndĩ ĩyo nĩũkoiga atĩ, “Niĩ ndĩ ngai,” ũrĩ mbere ya acio magaakũũraga? Ũgaakorwo ũrĩ o mũndũ, no ti ngai, ũrĩ moko-inĩ ma acio magaakũũraga.
10 Thou shalt die the death of the vncircumcised by the hands of stragers: for I haue spoken it, sayth the Lord God.
Ũgaakua gĩkuũ ta kĩa andũ arĩa mataruaga, moko-inĩ ma andũ a kũngĩ. Nĩ niĩ njugĩte ũguo, ũguo nĩguo Mwathani Jehova ekuuga.’”
11 Moreouer the word of the Lord came vnto me, saying,
Kiugo kĩa Jehova nĩkĩanginyĩrĩire, ngĩĩrwo atĩrĩ:
12 Sonne of man, take vp a lamentation vpon the King of Tyrus, and say vnto him, Thus sayeth the Lord God, Thou sealest vp the summe, and art full of wisedome and perfite in beautie.
“Mũrũ wa mũndũ, ambĩrĩria macakaya makoniĩ mũthamaki wa Turo, ũmwĩre atĩrĩ: ‘Mwathani Jehova ekuuga ũũ: “‘Wee warĩ kĩonereria kĩa ũkinyanĩru, ũkaiyũrwo nĩ ũũgĩ, na ũgathakara o biũ.
13 Thou hast ben in Eden the garden of God: euery precious stone was in thy garment, the rubie, the topaze and the diamonde, the chrysolite, the onix, and the iasper, the saphir, emeraude, and the carbuncle and golde: the woorkemanship of thy timbrels, and of thy pipes was prepared in thee in the day that thou wast created.
Wee watũũrĩte Edeni, mũgũnda wa Ngai; wagemetio na kahiga gothe ka goro ta: wakiki ĩrĩa ndune, na yakuti ĩrĩa ya rangi wa ngoikoni, na arimathi, na thumarati ĩrĩa theru, na onigithi, na njathibi, na yakuti ĩrĩa ya rangi wa bururu, na thumarati ĩrĩa nduru, na baregethu. Magemio maku maathondeketwo na thahabu; mũthenya ũrĩa wee wombirwo noguo maahaarĩirio.
14 Thou art the anointed Cherub, that couereth, and I haue set thee in honour: thou wast vpon the holy mountaine of God: thou hast walked in the middes of the stones of fire.
Waitĩrĩirio maguta ũtuĩke ta kerubi mũgitanĩri, na nĩkĩo ndaakwamũrire. Wee warĩ kĩrĩma-igũrũ kĩrĩa gĩtheru kĩa Ngai; waceeragĩra mahiga-inĩ ma mwaki.
15 Thou wast perfite in thy wayes from the day that thou wast created, till iniquitie was found in thee.
Ndwarĩ na ũcuuke mĩthiĩre-inĩ yaku, kuuma mũthenya ũrĩa wombirwo, nginya rĩrĩa waganu wonekire thĩinĩ waku.
16 By the multitude of thy marchandise, they haue filled the middes of thee with crueltie, and thou hast sinned: therefore I will cast thee as prophane out of the mountaine of God: and I will destroy thee, O couering Cherub from the mids of the stones of fire.
Tondũ wa wonjoria waku kũingĩha, nawe ũkĩĩhia. Nĩ ũndũ ũcio ngĩkũrutũrũra kuuma kĩrĩma-inĩ kĩa Ngai ũnyararĩkĩte, na wee kerubi, wee ũgitanagĩra, ngĩkũingata wehere mahiga-inĩ macio ma mwaki.
17 Thine heart was lifted vp because of thy beautie, and thou hast corrupted thy wisedome by reason of thy brightnes: I wil cast thee to ye grounde: I will lay thee before Kinges that they may beholde thee.
Ngoro yaku nĩyanyiitirwo nĩ mwĩtĩĩo nĩ ũndũ wa ũthaka waku, nawe ũgĩthũkia ũũgĩ waku nĩ ũndũ wa riiri waku. Nĩ ũndũ ũcio ngĩgũikia thĩ; ndaagũtuire kĩnyararo ũrĩ mbere ya athamaki.
18 Thou hast defiled thy sanctification by the multitude of thine iniquities, and by the iniquitie of thy marchandise: therefore wil I bring forth a fire from the mids of thee, which shall deuoure thee: and I wil bring thee to ashes vpon the earth, in the sight of all them that beholde thee.
Nĩ ũndũ wa mehia maku maingĩ na wonjoria ũtarĩ wa ma, nĩũthaahĩtie kũndũ gwaku kũrĩa-gũtheru. Nĩ ũndũ ũcio ngĩtũma mwaki uume thĩinĩ waku, naguo ũgĩkũniina, na ngĩgũtua mũhu hau thĩ, maitho-inĩ ma arĩa meeroragĩra.
19 All they that knowe thee among the people, shalbe astonished at thee: thou shalt be a terrour, and neuer shalt thou be any more.
Ndũrĩrĩ ciothe iria ciakũũĩ, nĩcigegetio nĩwe; nĩũkinyĩte mũthia wa kũguoyohithia, nawe ndũgacooka kuonwo rĩngĩ.’”
20 Againe, the worde of the Lord came vnto me, saying,
Kiugo kĩa Jehova nĩkĩanginyĩrĩire, ngĩĩrwo atĩrĩ:
21 Sonne of man, set thy face against Zidon, and prophesie against it,
“Mũrũ wa mũndũ, erekeria ũthiũ waku Sidoni; rĩrathĩre ũhoro wa kũrĩũkĩrĩra,
22 And say, Thus saith the Lord God, Behold, I come against thee, O Zidon, and I will be glorified in the mids of thee: and they shall know that I am the Lord, when I shall haue executed iudgements in her, and shalbe sanctified in her.
ũrĩĩre atĩrĩ: ‘Mwathani Jehova ekuuga ũũ: “‘Wee Sidoni, nĩngũgũũkĩrĩra, na nĩngegĩĩra na riiri thĩinĩ waku. Nao nĩmakamenya atĩ niĩ nĩ niĩ Jehova, hĩndĩ ĩrĩa ngaarĩrehere iherithia, na ndĩĩonanie atĩ ndĩ mũtheru thĩinĩ warĩo.
23 For I wil send into her pestilence, and blood into her streetes, and the slaine shall fall in the middes of her: the enemie shall come against her with the sword on euery side, and they shall know that I am the Lord.
Nĩngarĩrehithĩria mũthiro, na ndũme thakame ĩtherere njĩra-inĩ ciarĩo. Arĩa oorage nĩmakaagũa thĩinĩ warĩo, naruo rũhiũ rwa njora rũrĩũkĩrĩre mĩena yothe. Hĩndĩ ĩyo nĩmakamenya atĩ niĩ nĩ niĩ Jehova.
24 And they shalbe no more a pricking thorne vnto the house of Israel, nor any grieuous thorne of all that are round about them, and despised them, and they shall knowe that I am the Lord God.
“‘Gũtirĩ hĩndĩ ĩngĩ andũ a Isiraeli makaagĩa na thũ mariganĩtie nacio, nĩguo ituĩke congʼe ũrĩ ruo, na mĩigua mĩũgĩ. Hĩndĩ ĩyo nĩmakamenya atĩ niĩ nĩ niĩ Mwathani Jehova.
25 Thus saith the Lord God, When I shall haue gathered the house of Israel from the people where they are scattered, and shalbe sanctified in them in the sight of the heathen, then shall they dwel in the land, that I haue giuen to my seruant Iaakob.
“‘Mwathani Jehova ekuuga ũũ: Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa ngaacookanĩrĩria andũ a Isiraeli moime ndũrĩrĩ-inĩ kũrĩa maahurunjirwo, hĩndĩ ĩyo nĩngonania maitho-inĩ ma ndũrĩrĩ atĩ ndĩ mũtheru ndĩ thĩinĩ wao. Hĩndĩ ĩyo nĩmagatũũra bũrũri wao kĩũmbe ũrĩa ndaaheire ndungata yakwa Jakubu.
26 And they shall dwell safely therein, and shall builde houses, and plant vineyards: yea, they shall dwell safely, when I haue executed iudgements vpon al round about them that despise them, and they shall knowe that I am the Lord their God.
Magaatũũra kuo marĩ agitĩre, na nĩmagaka nyũmba, na mahaande mĩgũnda ya mĩthabibũ; nao magaatũũra marĩ agitĩre rĩrĩa ngaarehe iherithia kũrĩ andũ arĩa othe mariganĩtie nao arĩa maamacambagia. Hĩndĩ ĩyo nĩmakamenya atĩ niĩ nĩ niĩ Jehova Ngai wao.’”
