< Ezekiel 32 >

1 And in the twelfth yeere in the twelfth moneth, and in the first day of the moneth, the worde of the Lord came vnto me, saying,
Katika mwaka wa kumi na mbili, mwezi wa kumi na mbili, siku ya kwanza ya mwezi, neno la Bwana likanijia, kusema:
2 Sonne of man, take vp a lamentation for Pharaoh King of Egypt, and say vnto him, Thou art like a lyon of the nations and art as a dragon in the sea: thou castedst out thy riuers and troubledst the waters with thy feete, and stampedst in their riuers.
“Mwanadamu, fanya maombolezo kwa ajili ya Farao mfalme wa Misri na umwambie: “‘Wewe ni kama simba miongoni mwa mataifa, wewe ni kama joka kubwa baharini, unayevuruga maji kwa miguu yako na kuchafua vijito.
3 Thus sayth the Lord God, I will therefore spread my net ouer thee with a great multitude of people, and they shall make thee come vp into my net.
“‘Hili ndilo Bwana Mwenyezi asemalo: “‘Nikiwa pamoja na wingi mkubwa wa watu nitautupa wavu wangu juu yako, nao watakukokota katika wavu wangu.
4 Then will I leaue thee vpon the land, and I will cast thee vpon the open field, and I wil cause all the foules of the heauen to remaine vpon thee, and I will fill all the beastes of the field with thee.
Nitakutupa nchi kavu na kukuvurumisha uwanjani. Nitawafanya ndege wote wa angani watue juu yako na wanyama wote wa nchi watajishibisha nyama yako.
5 And I will lay thy flesh vpon the mountaines, and fill the valleys with thine height.
Nitatawanya nyama yako juu ya milima na kujaza mabonde kwa mabaki yako.
6 I will also water with thy blood the land wherein thou swimmest, euen to ye mountaines, and the riuers shall be full of thee.
Nitailowanisha nchi kwa damu yako inayotiririka njia yote hadi milimani, nayo mabonde yatajazwa na nyama yako.
7 And when I shall put thee out, I will couer the heauen, and make the starres thereof darke: I will couer the sunne with a cloude, and the moone shall not giue her light.
Nitakapokuzimisha, nitafunika mbingu na kuzitia nyota zake giza; nitalifunika jua kwa wingu, nao mwezi hautatoa nuru yake.
8 All the lightes of heauen will I make darke for thee, and bring darkenesse vpon thy lande, sayeth the Lord God.
Mianga yote itoayo nuru angani nitaitia giza juu yako; nitaleta giza juu ya nchi yako, asema Bwana Mwenyezi.
9 I will also trouble the heartes of many people, when I shall bring thy destruction among the nations and vpon the countries which thou hast not knowen.
Nitaifadhaisha mioyo ya mataifa mengi nitakapokuangamiza miongoni mwa mataifa, nikikuleta uhamishoni miongoni mwa nchi ambazo haujapata kuzijua.
10 Yea, I will make many people amased at thee, and their Kings shalbe astonished with feare for thee, when I shall make my sworde to glitter against their faces, and they shall be afraide at euery moment: euery man for his owne life in the day of thy fall.
Nitayafanya mataifa mengi wakustaajabie, wafalme wao watatetemeka kwa hofu kwa ajili yako nitakapotikisa upanga wangu mbele yao. Siku ya anguko lako kila mmoja wao atatetemeka kila dakika kwa ajili ya maisha yake.
11 For thus sayth the Lord God, The sworde of the King of Babel shall come vpon thee.
“‘Kwa kuwa hili ndilo Bwana Mwenyezi asemalo: “‘Upanga wa mfalme wa Babeli utakuja dhidi yako.
12 By the swordes of the mightie will I cause thy multitude to fall: they all shall be terrible nations, and they shall destroy the pompe of Egypt, and all the multitude thereof shalbe consumed.
Nitafanya makundi yako ya wajeuri kuanguka kwa panga za watu mashujaa, taifa katili kuliko mataifa yote. Watakivunjavunja kiburi cha Misri, nayo makundi yake yote ya wajeuri yatashindwa.
13 I will destroy also all the beastes thereof from the great watersides, neither shall the foote of man trouble them any more, nor the hooues of beast trouble them.
Nitaangamiza mifugo yake yote wanaojilisha kando ya maji mengi, hayatavurugwa tena kwa mguu wa mwanadamu wala kwato za mnyama hazitayachafua tena.
14 Then will I make their waters deepe, and cause their riuers to runne like oyle, sayeth the Lord God.
Kisha nitafanya maji yake yatulie na kufanya vijito vyake vitiririke kama mafuta, asema Bwana Mwenyezi.
15 When I shall make the land of Egypt desolate, and the countrey with all that is therein, shall be laid waste: when I shall smite all them which dwell therein, then shall they know that I am ye Lord.
Nitakapoifanya Misri kuwa ukiwa na kuiondolea nchi kila kitu kilichomo ndani yake, nitakapowapiga wote waishio humo, ndipo watakapojua kuwa Mimi ndimi Bwana.’
16 This is the mourning wherewith they shall lament her: the daughters of the nations shall lament her: they shall lament for Egypt, and for all her multitude, sayeth the Lord God.
“Hili ndilo ombolezo watakalomwimbia. Binti za mataifa wataliimba, kwa kuwa Misri na makundi yake yote ya wajeuri wataliimba, asema Bwana Mwenyezi.”
17 In the twelfth yeere also in the fifteenth day of the moneth, came the worde of the Lord vnto me, saying,
Katika mwaka wa kumi na mbili, mwezi wa kwanza, siku ya kumi na tano ya mwezi, neno la Bwana likanijia kusema:
18 Sonne of man, lament for the multitude of Egypt, and cast them downe, euen them and the daughters of the mighty nations vnto the nether partes of the earth, with them that goe downe into the pit.
“Mwanadamu, omboleza kwa ajili ya makundi ya wajeuri wa Misri na uwatupe kuzimu yeye na binti za mataifa yenye nguvu, waende huko pamoja nao washukao shimoni. (questioned)
19 Whome doest thou passe in beautie? goe downe and sleepe with the vncircumcised.
Je, ninyi mnamzidi nani kwa uzuri? Shukeni chini! Nanyi mkalazwe pamoja na hao wasiotahiriwa!
20 They shall fall in the middes of them that are slaine by the sword: shee is deliuered to the sword: draw her downe, and all her multitude.
Wataanguka miongoni mwa wale waliouawa kwa upanga. Upanga umefutwa, mwache aburutwe mbali pamoja na hao wajeuri wake wote.
21 The most mighty and strong shall speake to him out of the mids of hell with them that helpe her: they are gone downe and sleepe with the vncircumcised that be slaine by the sworde. (Sheol h7585)
Kutoka kuzimu viongozi hodari watanena kuhusu Misri pamoja na wale walioungana nao, ‘Wameshuka chini, nao wamelala kimya pamoja na hao wasiotahiriwa, pamoja na wale waliouawa kwa upanga.’ (Sheol h7585)
22 Asshur is there and all his companie: their graues are about him: all they are slaine and fallen by the sworde.
“Ashuru yuko huko pamoja na jeshi lake lote, amezungukwa na makaburi ya watu wake wote waliouawa, wale wote walioanguka kwa upanga.
23 Whose graues are made in the side of the pit, and his multitude are rounde about his graue: all they are slaine and fallen by the sworde, which caused feare to be in the land of the liuing.
Makaburi yao yako kwenye kina cha chini cha shimo na jeshi lake limelala kulizunguka kaburi lake. Wote waliokuwa wameeneza hofu kuu katika nchi ya walio hai wameuawa, wameanguka kwa upanga.
24 There is Elam and all his multitude round about his graue: al they are slaine and fallen by the sword which are gone downe with the vncircumcised into the nether parts of the earth, which caused themselues to be feared in the land of the liuing, yet haue they borne their shame with them that are gone downe to the pit.
“Elamu yuko huko, pamoja na makundi yake yote ya wajeuri wakiwa wamelizunguka kaburi lake. Wote wameuawa, wameanguka kwa upanga. Wote waliokuwa wameeneza hofu katika nchi ya walio hai walishuka kuzimu bila kutahiriwa. Wanaichukua aibu yao pamoja na wale washukao shimoni. (questioned)
25 They haue made his bed in the mids of the slaine with al his multitude: their graues are round about him: all these vncircucised are slaine by the sworde: though they haue caused their feare in the land of ye liuing, yet haue they borne their shame with them that goe downe to the pitte: they are laide in the middes of them, that be slaine.
Kitanda kimetandikwa kwa ajili yake miongoni mwa waliouawa, pamoja na makundi yake yote ya wajeuri wakiwa wamelizunguka kaburi lake. Wote ni watu wasiotahiriwa, wameuawa kwa upanga. Kwa sababu vitisho vyao vilienea katika nchi ya walio hai, wameichukua aibu yao pamoja na wale washukao shimoni, nao wamewekwa miongoni mwa waliouawa.
26 There is Meshech, Tubal, and all their multitude, their graues are round about them: al these vncircumcised were slaine by the sworde, though they caused their feare to be in ye land of the liuing.
“Mesheki na Tubali wako humo, pamoja na makundi yao ya wajeuri wakiwa wameyazunguka makaburi yao. Wote hawakutahiriwa, wameuawa kwa upanga kwa sababu walieneza vitisho vyao katika nchi ya walio hai.
27 And they shall not lie with the valiant of the vncircumcised, that are fallen, which are gone down to the graue, with their weapons of warre, and haue laied their swords vnder their heads, but their iniquitie shalbe vpon their bones: because they were the feare of the mighty in the lande of the liuing. (Sheol h7585)
Je, hawakulala na mashujaa wengine wasiotahiriwa waliouawa, ambao wameshuka kaburini wakiwa na silaha zao za vita, ambao panga zao ziliwekwa chini ya vichwa vyao na uovu wao juu ya mifupa yao? Adhabu kwa ajili ya dhambi zao ilikuwa juu ya mifupa yao, ingawa vitisho vya mashujaa hawa vilikuwa vimeenea hadi kwenye nchi ya walio hai. (Sheol h7585)
28 Yea, thou shalt be broken in the middes of the vncircumcised, and lie with them that are slaine by the sworde.
“Wewe pia, ee Farao, utavunjwa nawe utalala miongoni mwa wasiotahiriwa, pamoja na wale waliouawa kwa upanga.
29 There is Edom, his Kings, and all his princes, which with their strength are laied by them that were slaine by the sworde: they shall sleepe with the vncircumcised, and with them that goe downe to the pit.
“Edomu yuko humo, wafalme wake wote na wakuu wake wote, ambao ijapokuwa wana nguvu, wamelazwa pamoja na wale waliouawa kwa upanga. Wamelala pamoja na wasiotahiriwa, pamoja na wale washukao shimoni.
30 There be al the princes of the North, with al the Zidonians, which are gone downe with the slaine, with their feare: they are ashamed of their strength, and the vncircumcised sleepe with them that be slaine by the sword, and beare their shame with them that goe downe to the pit.
“Wakuu wote wa kaskazini na Wasidoni wote wako huko, wameshuka chini pamoja na waliouawa kwa aibu ijapokuwa kuna vitisho vilivyosababishwa na nguvu zao. Wamelala bila kutahiriwa pamoja na wale waliouawa kwa upanga na kuchukua aibu yao pamoja na wale washukao chini shimoni.
31 Pharaoh shall see them, and hee shall be comforted ouer all his multitude: Pharaoh, and all his armie shall be slaine by the sword, saieth the Lord God.
“Farao, yeye pamoja na jeshi lake lote, atakapowaona atafarijiwa kwa ajili ya makundi yake yote ya wajeuri, wale waliouawa kwa upanga, asema Bwana Mwenyezi.
32 For I haue caused my feare to be in the lande of the liuing: and he shall be laid in the mids of the vncircumcised with them, that are slaine by the sword, euen Pharaoh and all his multitude, sayeth the Lord God.
Ingawa nilimfanya Farao aeneze vitisho vyake katika nchi ya walio hai, Farao pamoja na makundi yake yote ya wajeuri watalazwa miongoni mwa wasiotahiriwa, pamoja na wale waliouawa kwa upanga, asema Bwana Mwenyezi.”
