Ezekiel 37
1 The hand of the Lord was vpon me, and caryed me out in ye spirit of ye Lord, and set me downe in ye mids of the field, which was full of bones.
Aka nke Onyenwe anyị dịkwasịrị m, o sitekwara nʼike Mmụọ nke Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị bulie m, debe m nʼetiti ndagwurugwu nke jupụtara nʼọkpụkpụ.
2 And he led me round about by them, and beholde, they were very many in the open fielde, and lo, they were very drie.
O mere ka m jegharịa nʼetiti ha. Ahụrụ m ọkpụkpụ kpọrọ nkụ, nke dị ukwuu nʼọnụọgụgụ, ka ha ghasa na ndagwurugwu ahụ.
3 And he sayde vnto me, Sonne of man, can these bones liue? And I answered, O Lord God, thou knowest.
Ọ sịrị m, “Nwa nke mmadụ, ọkpụkpụ ndị a ha pụrụ ịdị ndị ọzọ?” Asịrị m, “Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị ọ bụ naanị gị onwe gị maara.”
4 Againe he sayde vnto me, Prophecie vpon these bones and say vnto them, O ye dry bones, heare the word of the Lord.
Mgbe ahụ, ọ sịrị m, “Buo amụma nye ọkpụkpụ ndị ahụ, gwa ha, ‘Unu ọkpụkpụ niile kpọrọ nkụ, geenụ ntị nʼokwu nke Onyenwe anyị.
5 Thus saith the Lord God vnto these bones, Behold, I wil cause breath to enter into you, and ye shall liue.
Ihe ndị a ka Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị na-agwa ọkpụkpụ ndị a. Lee, aga m eme ka ume baa nʼime unu, unu ga-adịkwa ndụ.
6 And I will lay sinewes vpon you, and make flesh growe vpon you, and couer you with skinne, and put breath in you, that ye may liue, and yee shall know that I am the Lord.
Aga m etinyekwasị unu akwara, na anụ ahụ, werekwa akpụkpọ ahụ kpuchie unu. Aga m etinye ume nʼime unu, unu ga-adịkwa ndụ. Mgbe ahụ, unu ga-amata na mụ onwe m bụ Onyenwe anyị.’”
7 So I prophecied, as I was commanded: and as I prophecied, there was a noyse, and beholde, there was a shaking, and the bones came together, bone to his bone.
Ya mere, eburu m amụma dịka e sị nye m nʼiwu. Mgbe m nọ na-ebu amụma ahụ, anụrụ m ụzụ, ụzụ mkpọtụ. Ma lee, ọkpụkpụ ndị ahụ niile bịara ibe ha nso; ọkpụkpụ malitekwara ijikọta onwe ha ọnụ.
8 And when I beheld, loe, the sinewes, and the flesh grewe vpon them, and aboue, the skinne couered them, but there was no breath in them.
Mgbe m nọkwa na-ele anya, lee, ahụrụ m ka akwara na anụ ahụ malitere ịbịakwasị nʼelu ọkpụkpụ ndị ahụ, akpụkpọ ahụ kpuchikwara elu ha. Ma nʼoge a ume ọbụla adịghị nʼime ha.
9 Then sayd he vnto me, Prophecie vnto the winde: prophecie, sonne of man, and say to the winde, Thus sayth the Lord God, Come from the foure windes, O breath, and breathe vpon these slayne, that they may liue.
Mgbe ahụ, ọ sịrị m, “Buo amụma nye ifufe; buo amụma, nwa nke mmadụ, sị ifufe, ‘Otu a ka Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị kwuru: site nʼakụkụ anọ nke ụwa bịa, gị ume na-enye ndụ, kukwasị ndị a e gburu egbu ka ha dịkwa ndụ ọzọ.’”
10 So I prophecied as hee had commanded me: and the breath came into them, and they liued, and stood vp vpon their feete, an exceeding great armie.
Ya mere, eburu m amụma dịka o si nye m nʼiwu. Ume ndụ banyekwara nʼime ha. Ha niile dịịrị ndụ, bilie ọtọ, guzo nʼụkwụ ha, ghọọ usuu ndị agha dị ukwuu nʼọnụọgụgụ.
11 Then he sayd vnto me, Sonne of man, these bones are the whole house of Israel. Behold, they say, Our bones are dried, and our hope is gone, and we are cleane cut off.
Mgbe ahụ, ọ gwara m, “Nwa nke mmadụ, ọkpụkpụ ndị a nọchiri anya ụlọ Izrel niile. Ha na-asị, ‘Anyị aghọọla ọkpụkpụ kpọrọ nkụ, olileanya niile agwụkwala, anyị abụrụla ndị e bipụrụ.’
12 Therefore prophecie, and say vnto them, Thus saith the Lord God, Beholde, my people, I will open your graues, and cause you to come vp out of your sepulchres, and bring you into the lande of Israel,
Nʼihi ya, buo amụma gwa ha, ‘otu a ka Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị kwuru, Ndị m, aga m emeghe ili unu, si nʼebe ahụ wepụta unu. Aga m eme ka unu lọghachitakwa nʼala Izrel.
13 And yee shall knowe that I am the Lord, when I haue opened your graues, O my people, and brought you vp out of your sepulchres,
Nʼikpeazụ, mgbe m meghere ili unu mee ka unu si nʼime ya pụta, unu bụ ndị m ga-amata na mụ onwe m bụ Onyenwe anyị.
14 And shall put my Spirit in you, and ye shall liue, and I shall place you in your owne land: then yee shall knowe that I the Lord haue spoken it, and performed it, sayth the Lord.
Aga m etinye Mmụọ m nʼime unu, unu ga-adị ndụ, lọghachikwa nʼala unu ọzọ. Unu ga-amatakwa na mụ onwe m bụ Onyenwe anyị, ekwuola ya, meekwa ya, otu a ka Onyenwe anyị kwubiri.’”
15 The word of the Lord came againe vnto me, saying,
Okwu Onyenwe anyị ruru m ntị, sị,
16 Moreouer thou sonne of man, take thee a piece of wood, and write vpon it, Vnto Iudah, and to the children of Israel his companions the take another piece of wood, and write vpon it, Vnto Ioseph the tree of Ephraim, and to al the house of Israel his companions.
“Nwa nke mmadụ, were osisi dee ihe ndị a nʼelu ya, ‘Osisi a nọchiri anya Juda na ndị Izrel e kekọtara ya na ha ọnụ.’ Werekwa osisi ọzọ deekwa okwu ndị a nʼelu ya. ‘Osisi a nọchiri anya Ifrem, na Josef, na ndị Izrel niile e jikọtara ha na ndị a ọnụ.’
17 And thou shalt ioyne the one to another into one tree, and they shalbe as one in thine hand.
Jidekọtaa osisi abụọ ndị a ọnụ, mee ka ha bụrụ otu osisi nʼaka gị.
18 And when the children of thy people shall speake vnto thee, saying, Wilt thou not shewe vs what thou meanest by these?
“Mgbe ndị gị jụrụ gị, ‘Ị gaghị egosi anyị ihe nke a pụtara?’
19 Thou shalt answere them, Thus sayeth the Lord God, Behold, I wil take the tree of Ioseph, which is in the hande of Ephraim, and the tribes of Israel his fellowes, and will put them with him, euen with the tree of Iudah, and make them one tree, and they shalbe one in mine hand.
gwa ha, sị, ‘Otu a ka Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị na-ekwu: Lee, agaje m iwere osisi Josef, nke dị Ifrem nʼaka, nke bụkwa ihe nọchiri anya ebo ụfọdụ ndị Izrel, jidekọtaa ya na osisi nọchiri anya Juda, mee ha ka ha ghọọ otu osisi, bụrụkwa otu nʼaka m.’
20 And the pieces of wood, whereon thou writest, shalbe in thine hand, in their sight.
Were mkpirisi osisi ndị ahụ i dere ihe nke dị nʼaka gị, gosi ha,
21 And say vnto them, Thus saith the Lord God, Beholde, I will take the children of Israel from among the heathen, whither they be gone, and wil gather them on euery side, and bring them into their owne land.
ma gwakwa ha, ‘Otu a ka Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị na-ekwu: Aga m esite na mba niile ndị Izrel jere biri kpọpụta ha. Aga m achịkọtakwa ha site nʼakụkụ niile, kpọbata ha nʼala nke aka ha.
22 And I will make them one people in the lande, vpon the mountaines of Israel, and one king shalbe king to them all: and they shalbe no more two peoples, neither bee deuided any more henceforth into two kingdomes.
Aga m eme ha ka ha bụrụ otu mba nʼala ahụ, nʼugwu niile nke Izrel. Ha ga-enwe naanị otu eze nke ga-achị ha niile. Ha agaghị abụkwa mba abụọ maọbụ alaeze abụọ ọzọ.
23 Neither shall they bee polluted any more with their idoles, nor with their abominations, nor with any of their transgressions: but I will saue them out of all their dwelling places, wherein they haue sinned, and will clense them: so shall they be my people, and I will be their God.
Ha agaghị ejikwa arụsị ha niile, maọbụ ihe a pịrị apị rụrụ arụ, maọbụ jiri ihe ọjọọ ndị ọzọ dị iche iche merụọ onwe ha ọzọ. Nʼihi na aga m azọpụta ha site na ịlaghachi azụ nʼụzọ mmehie ha niile, meekwa ka ha dị ọcha. Ha ga-abụ ndị m, mụ onwe m ga-abụkwa Chineke ha.
24 And Dauid my seruant shalbe king ouer them, and they all shall haue one shepheard: they shall also walke in my iudgements, and obserue my statutes, and doe them.
“‘Ohu m, Devid, ga-abụ eze ga-achị ha, ha ga-enwekwa otu onye ọzụzụ atụrụ. Ha ga-edebezu iwu m niile, na ụkpụrụ m niile.
25 And they shall dwell in the lande, that I haue giuen vnto Iaakob my seruant, where your fathers haue dwelt, and they shall dwel therein, euen they, and their sonnes, and their sonnes sonnes for euer, and my seruant Dauid shall bee their prince for euer.
Ha ga-ebi nʼala ahụ m nyere ohu m Jekọb, ala ebe nna nna ha biri. Ha na ụmụ ha ga-ebi nʼime ya. Ụmụ ụmụ ha ruo ọgbọ niile ga-ebikwa nʼime ya. Ohu m Devid ga-abụ eze ha ruo ebighị ebi.
26 Moreouer, I will make a couenant of peace with them: it shall be an euerlasting couenant with them, and I wil place them, and multiply them, and wil set my Sanctuarie among them for euermore.
Mụ na ha ga-agba ndụ udo, ọgbụgba ndụ nke ga-adị ruo mgbe ebighị ebi. Aga m agọzi ha, mee ka ha baa ụba. Nʼetiti ha kwa ka ụlọnsọ m ga-adị ruo mgbe ebighị ebi.
27 My tabernacle also shalbe with them: yea, I will be their God, and they shalbe my people.
Ebe obibi m ga-abụkwa nʼetiti ha. E, aga m abụ Chineke ha, ha ga-abụkwa ndị m.
28 Thus the heathen shall knowe, that I the Lord do sanctifie Israel, when my Sanctuarie shall be among them for euermore.
Mgbe ụlọnsọ m ga-adị nʼetiti ha ruo ebighị ebi, mba niile ga-amata na mụ onwe m bụ Onyenwe anyị na-edo Izrel nsọ.’”
