< Ezekiel 36 >

1 Also thou sonne of man, prophesie vnto the mountaines of Israel, and say, Ye mountaines of Israel, heare the word of the Lord.
“Atĩrĩrĩ, wee mũrũ wa mũndũ, ratha ũhoro ũkoniĩ irĩma cia Isiraeli, ũciĩre atĩrĩ, ‘Inyuĩ irĩma cia Isiraeli, iguai kiugo kĩa Jehova.
2 Thus saith the Lord God, because the enemie hath sayde against you, Aha, euen the hye places of the world are ours in possession,
Mwathani Jehova ekuuga ũũ: Thũ nĩyaaririe ũhoro waku, ĩkiuga atĩrĩ, “Aha! Kũndũ kũrĩa gũtũũgĩru gwa tene nĩgũtuĩkĩte gwitũ gwa kwĩgwatĩra.”’
3 Therefore prophesie, and say, Thus sayth the Lord God, Because that they haue made you desolate, and swallowed you vp on euery side, that ye might be a possession vnto the residue of the heathen, and ye are come vnto the lippes and tongues of men, and vnto the reproch of the people,
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio ratha ũhoro uuge atĩrĩ, ‘Mwathani Jehova ekuuga ũũ: Kuona atĩ nĩmakwanangire na magĩkũguĩma na mĩena yothe nĩguo wĩgwatĩrwo nĩ ndũrĩrĩ icio ingĩ ũtuĩke kĩndũ kĩmene na gĩa gũcambio nĩ andũ-rĩ,
4 Therefore ye mountaines of Israel, heare the worde of the Lord God, Thus sayth the Lord God to the mountaines and to the hilles, to the riuers, and to the valleys, and to the waste, and desolate places, and to the cities that are forsaken: which are spoyled and had in derision of the residue of the heathen that are round about.
nĩ ũndũ ũcio inyuĩ irĩma cia Isiraeli, iguai kiugo kĩa Mwathani Jehova: Mwathani Jehova ekwĩra irĩma na tũrĩma, na mĩkuru na ituamba, na kũndũ kũrĩa kwanangĩtwo gũgakira ihooru, na matũũra marĩa mathaamĩtwo, na matũũra marĩa matahĩtwo indo na makanyararwo nĩ ndũrĩrĩ icio ingĩ iria imũthiũrũrũkĩirie atĩrĩ,
5 Therefore thus saith the Lord God, Surely in the fire of mine indignation haue I spoken against the residue of the heathen, and against all Idumea, which haue taken my lande for their possession, with the ioy of all their heart, and with despitefull mindes to cast it out for a pray.
Mwathani Jehova ekuuga ũũ: Nĩnjarĩtie ũhoro wa gũũkĩrĩra ndũrĩrĩ icio ingĩ ndĩ na kĩyo kĩnene gĩakanĩte ta mwaki, na ngaaria ũhoro wa gũũkĩrĩra bũrũri wa Edomu wothe, nĩgũkorwo nĩmegwatĩire bũrũri wakwa ũtuĩke wao, makĩngenagĩrĩra na marĩ na rũmena ngoro-inĩ ciao, nĩguo matunyane ũrĩithio wakuo.’
6 Prophesie therfore vpon the land of Israel, and say vnto the mountaines, and to the hilles, to the riuers, and to the valleys, Thus sayth the Lord God, Behold, I haue spoken in mine indignation, and in my wrath, because yee haue suffered the shame of the heathen,
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio ratha ũhoro ũkoniĩ bũrũri wa Isiraeli, na wĩre irĩma na tũrĩma, na mĩkuru na ituamba, atĩrĩ: ‘Mwathani Jehova ekuuga ũũ: Ngwaria ndĩ na mangʼũrĩ marĩ na ũiru tondũ nĩũnyararĩtwo nĩ ndũrĩrĩ icio.
7 Therefore thus saith the Lord God, I haue lifted vp mine hand, surely the heathen that are about you, shall beare their shame.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Mwathani Jehova ekuuga ũũ: Ndehĩta njoete guoko na igũrũ ndoiga atĩ ndũrĩrĩ icio imũthiũrũrũkĩirie o nacio nĩikanyararwo.
8 But you, O mountaines of Israel, yee shall shoote forth your branches, and bring foorth your fruite to my people of Israel: for they are ready to come.
“‘No rĩrĩ, inyuĩ irĩma cia Isiraeli nĩmũkaruta honge, na mũciarĩre andũ akwa a Isiraeli maciaro, nĩgũkorwo marĩ hakuhĩ kũinũka.
9 For behold, I come vnto you, and I wil turne vnto you, and ye shalbe tilled and sowen.
Nĩndĩrarũmbũiya ũhoro wanyu na nĩngũmũkinyĩria wega wakwa; nĩmũgacimbwo na mũhaandwo,
10 And I wil multiply the men vpon you, euen all the house of Israel wholly, and the cities shalbe inhabited, and the desolate places shalbe builded.
na nĩngamũingĩhĩria andũ, o acio a nyũmba ya Isiraeli yothe. Matũũra nĩmagatũũrwo, nakuo kũrĩa kwanange nĩgũgacookererio.
11 And I wil multiply vpon you man and beast, and they shall encrease, and bring fruite, and I will cause you to dwell after your olde estate, and I will bestowe benefites vpon you more then at the first, and ye shall know that I am the Lord.
Nĩngamũingĩhĩria andũ na mahiũ, nao nĩmagaciarana na maingĩhe. Nĩngatũma mũtũũrwo nĩ andũ ta ũrĩa mwatũũrĩtwo mbere, na ndũme mũgaacĩre gũkĩra mbere. Hĩndĩ ĩyo nĩmũkamenya atĩ niĩ nĩ niĩ Jehova.
12 Yea, I wil cause men to walke vpon you, euen my people Israel, and they shall possesse you, and ye shalbe their inheritance, and ye shall no more henceforth depriue them of men.
Nĩngatũma andũ, o acio andũ akwa a Isiraeli magere igũrũ rĩaku. Nĩmakamwĩgwatĩra, na inyuĩ nĩmũgatuĩka igai rĩao; mũtigacooka kũmatunya ciana ciao rĩngĩ.
13 Thus sayth the Lord God, because they say vnto you, Thou land deuourest vp men, and hast bene a waster of thy people,
“‘Mwathani Jehova ekuuga ũũ: Tondũ andũ maramwĩra atĩrĩ, “Inyuĩ mũniinũkagia andũ, na mũgatunya rũrĩrĩ rwanyu ciana ciaruo,”
14 Therefore thou shalt deuoure men no more, neither waste thy people henceforth, sayth the Lord God,
nĩ ũndũ ũcio mũtigacooka kũniina andũ, kana gũtũma rũrĩrĩ rwanyu rwage ciana, ũguo nĩguo Mwathani Jehova ekuuga.
15 Neither will I cause men to heare in thee the shame of the heathen any more, neither shalt thou beare the reproche of the people any more, neither shalt cause thy folke to fal any more, saith the Lord God.
Ndigacooka gũtũma mũigue kĩnyũrũri kĩa ndũrĩrĩ, o na kana mũcooke kũnyararwo nĩ kĩrĩndĩ, kana ndũme rũrĩrĩ rwanyu rũgwe, ũguo nĩguo Mwathani Jehova ekuuga.’”
16 Moreouer the word of the Lord came vnto me, saying,
Ningĩ kiugo kĩa Jehova nĩkĩanginyĩrĩire, ngĩĩrwo atĩrĩ:
17 Sonne of man, when the house of Israel dwelt in their owne lande, they defiled it by their owne wayes, and by their deedes: their way was before me as the filthinesse of the menstruous.
“Mũrũ wa mũndũ, hĩndĩ ĩrĩa andũ a Isiraeli maatũũraga bũrũri wao kĩũmbe-rĩ, nĩmaũthaahirie na mĩtugo yao na ciĩko ciao. Mĩtugo yao yatariĩ ta thaahu wa mũndũ-wa-nja wa o mweri maitho-inĩ makwa.
18 Wherfore I powred my wrath vpon them, for the blood that they had shed in the land, and for their idoles, wherewith they had polluted it.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio nĩndamaitĩrĩirie mangʼũrĩ makwa, tondũ nĩmaitithĩtie thakame kũu bũrũri ũcio na tondũ nĩmaũthaahĩtie na mĩhianano yao.
19 And I scattered them among the heathen, and they were dispersed through the countries for according to their wayes, and according to their deedes, I iudged them.
Nĩndamahurunjire ndũrĩrĩ-inĩ, na makĩharaganĩrio mabũrũri-inĩ; ndaamatuĩrĩire ciira kũringana na mĩtugo yao na ciĩko ciao.
20 And when they entred vnto the heathen, whither they went, they polluted mine holy Name, when they sayd of them, These are the people of the Lord, and are gone out of his land.
Na kũrĩa guothe maathiire ndũrĩrĩ-inĩ nĩmathaahirie rĩĩtwa rĩakwa itheru, nĩgũkorwo kweragwo atĩrĩ igũrũ rĩao, ‘Aya nĩ andũ a Jehova, no no nginya maangĩeherire bũrũri wake.’
21 But I fauoured mine holy Name which the house of Israel had polluted among the heathen, whither they went.
Nĩndarũmbũyagia ũhoro wa rĩĩtwa rĩakwa itheru, rĩrĩa rĩathaahirio nĩ nyũmba ya Isiraeli ndũrĩrĩ-inĩ kũrĩa maathiĩte.
22 Therfore say vnto the house of Israel, Thus saith ye Lord God, I doe not this for your sakes, O house of Israel, but for mine holy Names sake, which yee polluted among the heathen whither ye went.
“Nĩ ũndũ ũcio ĩra andũ a nyũmba ya Isiraeli atĩrĩ, ‘Mwathani Jehova ekuuga ũũ: Ndigwĩka maũndũ macio nĩ ũndũ wanyu, inyuĩ andũ a nyũmba ya Isiraeli, no ngũmeeka nĩ ũndũ wa rĩĩtwa rĩakwa itheru, rĩrĩa mũthaahĩtie ndũrĩrĩ-inĩ kũrĩa mũthiĩte.
23 And I wil sanctifie my great Name, which was polluted among the heathen, among whome you haue polluted it, and the heathen shall know that I am the Lord, sayth the Lord God, when I shalbe sanctified in you before their eyes.
Nĩngonania ũtheru wa rĩĩtwa rĩakwa inene, rĩrĩa rĩthaahĩtio ndũrĩrĩ-inĩ icio, rĩĩtwa rĩu inyuĩ mũthaahĩtie gatagatĩ-inĩ ga cio. Hĩndĩ ĩyo ndũrĩrĩ icio nĩikamenya atĩ niĩ nĩ niĩ Jehova, hĩndĩ ĩrĩa ngeyonania atĩ ndĩ mũtheru maitho-inĩ mao kũhĩtũkĩra harĩ inyuĩ, ũguo nĩguo Mwathani Jehova ekuuga.
24 For I will take you from among the heathen, and gather you out of all countries, and will bring you into your owne land.
“‘Nĩgũkorwo nĩngamũruta ndũrĩrĩ-inĩ icio; nĩngamũcookanĩrĩria kuuma mabũrũri macio mothe, na ndĩmũcookie bũrũri wanyu kĩũmbe.
25 Then wil I powre cleane water vpon you, and ye shalbe cleane: yea, from all your filthines, and from all your idoles wil I clense you.
Nĩngamũminjaminjĩria maaĩ matheru, na inyuĩ nĩmũgathera; nĩ niĩ ngaamũtheria mũthirwo nĩ thaahu wanyu wothe, na ndĩmũtherie kuuma kũrĩ mĩhianano yanyu yothe.
26 A newe heart also will I giue you, and a new spirit wil I put within you, and I will take away the stonie heart out of your body, and I will giue you an heart of flesh.
Nĩngamũhe ngoro njerũ, na njĩkĩre roho mwerũ thĩinĩ wanyu; nĩngamwehereria ngoro yanyu ya ihiga, ndĩmũhe ngoro ya nyama.
27 And I will put my spirite within you, and cause you to walke in my statutes, and ye shall keepe my iudgements and do them.
Na nĩngekĩra Roho wakwa thĩinĩ wanyu, na ndũme mũrũmagĩrĩre watho wakwa wa kũrũmĩrĩrwo, na mũmenyagĩrĩre kũrũmia mawatho makwa.
28 And ye shall dwell in the land, that I gaue to your fathers, and ye shalbe my people, and I will be your God.
Mũgaatũũra thĩinĩ wa bũrũri ũrĩa ndaaheire maithe manyu ma tene; nĩmũgatuĩka andũ akwa, na niĩ nduĩke Ngai wanyu.
29 I will also deliuer you from all your filthinesse, and I will call for corne, and will increase it, and lay no famine vpon you.
Nĩngamũhonokia kuuma thaahu-inĩ wanyu wothe. Nĩngoiga kũgĩe ngano, na ndũme ĩingĩhe, na ndikamũrehithĩria ngʼaragu.
30 For I will multiplie the fruite of the trees, and the increase of the fielde, that ye shall beare no more the reproch of famine among the heathen.
Nĩngaingĩhia maciaro ma mĩtĩ na maciaro ma mũgũnda, nĩgeetha mũtikanacooke kũnyararwo mũrĩ thĩinĩ wa ndũrĩrĩ tondũ wa ngʼaragu.
31 Then shall ye remember your owne wicked wayes, and your deedes that were not good, and shall iudge your selues worthie to haue bene destroyed for your iniquities, and for your abominations.
Hĩndĩ ĩyo nĩmũkaririkana mĩthiĩre yanyu mĩũru na ciĩko cia waganu, na nĩmũgethũũra inyuĩ ene nĩ ũndũ wa mehia manyu na mĩtugo yanyu ĩrĩ magigi.
32 Be it knowen vnto you that I do not this for your sakes, sayth the Lord God: therefore, O ye house of Israel, be ashamed, and confounded for your owne wayes.
Nĩngwenda mũmenye atĩ ndireeka ũndũ ũyũ nĩ ũndũ wanyu, ũguo nĩguo Mwathani Jehova ekuuga. Iguai thoni, na mũnyararithio nĩ ũndũ wa mĩtugo yanyu, inyuĩ andũ a nyũmba ya Isiraeli!
33 Thus sayth the Lord God, What time as I shall haue clensed you from all your iniquities, I will cause you to dwel in the cities, and the desolate places shalbe builded.
“‘Mwathani Jehova ekuuga ũũ: Mũthenya ũrĩa ngaamũtheria mũthirwo nĩ mehia manyu mothe-rĩ, nĩngatũma matũũra manyu macooke gũtũũrwo, na kũrĩa kwanangĩku nĩgũgacookererio.
34 And the desolate land shalbe tilled, whereas it lay waste in the sight of all that passed by.
Bũrũri ũrĩa ũkirĩte ihooru nĩũkarĩmwo handũ ha gũikaraga ũkirĩte ihooru maitho-inĩ ma arĩa othe mahĩtũkagĩra kuo.
35 For they sayd, This waste land was like the garden of Eden, and these waste and desolate and ruinous cities were strong, and were inhabited.
Nao nĩmakoiga atĩrĩ, “Bũrũri ũyũ watũũrĩte ũrĩ mũteanĩrie rĩu ũtuĩkĩte o ta mũgũnda wa Edeni; matũũra manene marĩa maanangĩtwo, na magakirio ihooru, na makaniinwo-rĩ, rĩu nĩmairigĩre na magatũũrwo.”
36 Then the residue of the heathen that are left round about you, shall know that I the Lord builde the ruinous places, and plant the desolate places: I the Lord haue spoken it, and wil do it.
Hĩndĩ ĩyo ndũrĩrĩ iria imũthiũrũrũkĩirie, iria igaatigara, nĩikamenya atĩ niĩ Jehova nĩ niĩ njookereirie kũrĩa kwanangĩtwo, na ngahaanda rĩngĩ kũrĩa gwakirĩtio ihooru. Niĩ Jehova nĩ niĩ njarĩtie, na nĩ niĩ ngeeka ũguo.’
37 Thus saith the Lord God, I will yet for this be sought of ye house of Israel, to performe it vnto them: I wil encrease them with men like a flocke.
“Mwathani Jehova ekuuga ũũ: O rĩngĩ nĩngetĩkĩra kũigua ithaithana rĩa andũ a nyũmba ya Isiraeli na ndĩmekĩre ũũ: Nĩngatũma andũ ao maingĩhe o ta rũũru rwa ngʼondu,
38 As the holy flocke, as the flocke of Ierusalem in their solemne feastes, so shall the desolate cities be filled with flockes of men, and they shall know, that I am the Lord.
maingĩhe o ta ndũũru cia kũrutwo magongona kũu Jerusalemu hĩndĩ ya ciathĩ iria nyamũre. Ũguo nĩguo matũũra macio manene manangĩtwo makaiyũrio ndũũru cia andũ. Hĩndĩ ĩyo nĩmakamenya atĩ niĩ nĩ niĩ Jehova.”
