Ezekiel 29
1 IN the tenth year, in the tenth month, in the twelfth day of the month, the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,
Pa tsiku lakhumi ndi chiwiri la mwezi wakhumi, chaka chakhumi, Yehova anandiyankhula kuti:
2 Son of man, set thy face against Pharaoh king of Egypt, and prophesy against him, and against all Egypt:
“Iwe mwana wa munthu, tembenukira kwa Farao, mfumu ya Igupto, ndipo unenere modzudzula mfumuyo pamodzi ndi dziko lake.
3 Speak, and say, Thus saith the Lord God; Behold, I am against thee, Pharaoh king of Egypt, the great dragon that lieth in the midst of his rivers, which hath said, My river is mine own, and I have made it for myself.
Uyiwuze mfumuyo kuti, ‘Ine Ambuye Yehova ndikuti, “‘Ndine mdani wako, iwe Farao mfumu ya Igupto, iwe ngʼona yayikulu yogona pakati pa mitsinje yako. Umanena kuti, ‘Mtsinje wa Nailo ndi wanga; ndinadzipangira ndekha.’
4 But I will put hooks in thy jaws, and I will cause the fish of thy rivers to stick unto thy scales, and I will bring thee up out of the midst of thy rivers, and all the fish of thy rivers shall stick unto thy scales.
Koma ndidzakukola ndi mbedza mʼkamwa mwako ndipo nsomba za mʼmitsinje yako zidzakangamira ku mamba ako. Tsono ndidzakutulutsa mu mtsinje mwakomo pamodzi ndi nsomba zimene zakangamira ku mamba ako.
5 And I will leave thee thrown into the wilderness, thee and all the fish of thy rivers: thou shalt fall upon the open fields; thou shalt not be brought together, nor gathered: I have given thee for meat to the beasts of the field and to the fowls of the heaven.
Ndidzakutaya ku chipululu, iwe pamodzi ndi nsomba zonse za mʼmitsinje yako. Udzagwera pamtetete kuthengo popanda munthu woti akutole kuti akayike maliro ako. Ndidzakusandutsa chakudya cha zirombo za pa dziko lapansi ndi mbalame za mlengalenga.
6 And all the inhabitants of Egypt shall know that I am the Lord, because they have been a staff of reed to the house of Israel.
Motero aliyense amene amakhala mu Igupto adzadziwa kuti Ine ndine Yehova. “‘Iwe unakhala ngati ndodo yabango ku Aisraeli.
7 When they took hold of thee by thy hand, thou didst break, and rend all their shoulder: and when they leaned upon thee, thou brakest, and madest all their loins to be at a stand.
Pamene anakugwira unathethekera mʼmanja mwawo ndi kucheka mapewa awo. Pamene anakutsamira, unathyoka ndipo misana yawo inagwedezeka.
8 Therefore thus saith the Lord God; Behold, I will bring a sword upon thee, and cut off man and beast out of thee.
“‘Nʼchifukwa chake Ine Ambuye Yehova ndikuti, ndikubweretsera lupanga kuti lidzaphe anthu pamodzi ndi nyama zomwe.
9 And the land of Egypt shall be desolate and waste; and they shall know that I am the Lord: because he hath said, The river is mine, and I have made it.
Dziko la Igupto lidzasanduka lopanda anthu. Pamenepo iwo adzadziwa kuti Ine ndine Yehova. “‘Popeza iwe unati, ‘Mtsinje wa Nailo ndi wanga; ndinawupanga ndine,’
10 Behold, therefore I am against thee, and against thy rivers, and I will make the land of Egypt utterly waste and desolate, from the tower of Syene even unto the border of Ethiopia.
nʼchifukwa chake Ine ndikudana nawe pamodzi ndi mitsinje yakoyo, ndipo ndidzasandutsa dziko la Igupto bwinja kuyambira chipululu cha Migidoli mpaka ku mzinda wa Asiwani, kukafika ku malire a Kusi.
11 No foot of man shall pass through it, nor foot of beast shall pass through it, neither shall it be inhabited forty years.
Palibe phazi la munthu kapena la nyama limene lidzapondepo. Kudzakhala kopanda anthu kwa zaka makumi anayi.
12 And I will make the land of Egypt desolate in the midst of the countries that are desolate, and her cities among the cities that are laid waste shall be desolate forty years: and I will scatter the Egyptians among the nations, and will disperse them through the countries.
Ndidzasandutsa dziko la Igupto kukhala chipululu ngati zipululu za mayiko ena. Kwa zaka makumi anayi mizinda yakenso idzakhala yopasuka pakati pa mizinda yopasuka. Ndipo ndidzathamangitsira Aigupto pakati pa mitundu ya anthu ndi kuwabalalitsira mʼmayiko.
13 Yet thus saith the Lord God; At the end of forty years will I gather the Egyptians from the people whither they were scattered:
“‘Komabe Ine Ambuye Yehova ndikuti: Pakutha pa zaka makumi anayi ndidzasonkhanitsa Aigupto onse kuchokera ku mayiko amene ndinawabalalitsirako.
14 And I will bring again the captivity of Egypt, and will cause them to return into the land of Pathros, into the land of their habitation; and they shall be there a base kingdom.
Ndidzachotsa Aiguptowo ku ukapolo ndipo ndidzawabwezera ku Patirosi kumene anachokera. Kumeneko iwo adzakhala ufumu wotsika.
15 It shall be the basest of the kingdoms; neither shall it exalt itself any more above the nations: for I will diminish them, that they shall no more rule over the nations.
Udzakhala ufumu wotsika kwambiri kupambana maufumu ena onse ndipo sudzadzitukumula pakati pa mitundu ina. Ndidzawufowoketsa kwambiri kotero kuti sudzathanso kulamulira mitundu ya anthu.
16 And it shall be no more the confidence of the house of Israel, which bringeth their iniquity to remembrance, when they shall look after them: but they shall know that I am the Lord God.
Aisraeli sadzadaliranso Aigupto. Koma kuti chilango chawo chidzawakumbutsa tchimo lawo lija lofunafuna thandizo kuchokera ku Igupto. Pamenepo iwo adzadziwa kuti Ine ndine Ambuye Yehova.’”
17 And it came to pass in the seven and twentieth year, in the first month, in the first day of the month, the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,
Pa tsiku loyamba la mwezi woyamba, chaka cha 27, Yehova anandiyankhula kuti:
18 Son of man, Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon caused his army to serve a great service against Tyrus: every head was made bald, and every shoulder was peeled: yet had he no wages, nor his army, for Tyrus, for the service that he had served against it:
“Iwe mwana wa munthu, kale Nebukadinezara mfumu ya Babuloni inagwiritsa ntchito ankhondo ake kukathira nkhondo mzinda wa Turo, mpaka munthu aliyense anachita dazi chifukwa chosenza katundu, ndipo ananyuka pa phewa. Komabe ngakhale iyeyo, kapena gulu lake lankhondo sanaphulepo kanthu pa ntchito yonse imene anayigwira polimbana ndi mzindawo.
19 Therefore thus saith the Lord God; Behold, I will give the land of Egypt unto Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon; and he shall take her multitude, and take her spoil, and take her prey; and it shall be the wages for his army.
Nʼchifukwa chake Ine Ambuye Yehova ndikuti, Ine ndidzapereka Igupto kwa Nebukadinezara mfumu ya Babuloni, ndipo iyo idzatenga chuma chake ndi kuchifunkha ngati malipiro a gulu lake lankhondo.
20 I have given him the land of Egypt for his labour wherewith he served against it, because they wrought for me, saith the Lord God.
Ndamupatsa Nebukadinezara Igupto ngati mphotho ya kulimbika kwake chifukwa iyo ndi gulu lake lankhondo anandigwirira ntchito, akutero Ambuye Yehova.
21 In that day will I cause the horn of the house of Israel to bud forth, and I will give thee the opening of the mouth in the midst of them; and they shall know that I am the Lord.
“Pa nthawi imeneyo ndidzapereka mphamvu yatsopano pa Aisraeli, ndipo ndidzatsekula pakamwa pako, iwe, Ezekieli kuti uthe kuyankhula pakati pawo. Pamenepo iwo adzadziwa kuti Ine ndine Yehova.”
