< Jezekiel 30 >
1 And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
Kiugo kĩa Jehova nĩkĩanginyĩrĩire, ngĩĩrwo atĩrĩ
2 Son of man, prophesy, and say, Thus says the Lord; Woe, woe [worth] the day!
“Mũrũ wa mũndũ, ratha ũhoro, uuge atĩrĩ: ‘Mwathani Jehova ekuuga ũũ: “‘Girĩkai, muuge atĩrĩ, “Kaĩ mũthenya ũcio ũrĩ na haaro-ĩ!”
3 For the day of the Lord is near, a day of cloud; it shall be the end of the nations.
Nĩgũkorwo mũthenya ũcio nĩũkuhĩrĩirie, mũthenya wa Jehova nĩũkuhĩrĩirie, mũthenya ũrĩ na matu, mũthenya ũrĩ na mũthiro harĩ ndũrĩrĩ.
4 And the sword shall come upon the Egyptians, and there shall be tumult in Ethiopia, and in Egypt [men] shall fall down slain together, and her foundations shall fall.
Rũhiũ rwa njora nĩrũgookĩrĩra bũrũri wa Misiri, naruo ruo rwa ngoro rũkinyĩrĩre Kushi. Rĩrĩa arĩa moragĩtwo makaagũa kũu bũrũri wa Misiri, ũtonga wakuo nĩũgakuuo, nayo mĩthingi yakuo ĩmomorwo.
5 Persians, and Cretans, and Lydians, and Libyans, and all the mixed multitude, and they of the children of my covenant, shall fall by the sword therein.
Andũ a Kushi na Putu, na Ludu, na Arabia guothe, na Lubia, na andũ a bũrũri wa kĩrĩkanĩro, makooragwo na rũhiũ rwa njora marĩ hamwe na andũ a Misiri.
6 And the supports of Egypt shall fall; and the pride of her strength shall come down from Magdol to Syene: they shall fall by the sword in it, says the Lord.
“‘Jehova ekuuga ũũ: “‘Arata a Misiri nĩmakooragwo, naguo hinya wake ũrĩa etĩĩaga naguo nĩũgaathira. Kuuma Migidoli o nginya Aswani, makooragĩrwo kuo thĩinĩ na rũhiũ rwa njora, ũguo nĩguo Mwathani Jehova ekuuga.
7 And it shall be made desolate in the midst of desolate countries, and their cities shall be [desolate] in the midst of desolate cities:
“‘Nĩmagakira ihooru, marĩ gatagatĩ-inĩ ka mabũrũri marĩa manangĩtwo, magakira ihooru, namo matũũra mao manene magaakorwo marĩ thĩinĩ wa matũũra manene marĩa manangĩku.
8 and they shall know that I am the Lord, when I shall send fire upon Egypt, and [when] all that help her shall be broken.
Hĩndĩ ĩyo nĩmakamenya atĩ niĩ nĩ niĩ Jehova, rĩrĩa ngaacina bũrũri wa Misiri na mwaki, nao arĩa othe maamateithagia mahehenjwo.
9 In that day shall messengers go forth hasting to destroy Ethiopia utterly, and there shall be tumult among them in the day of Egypt: for, behold it comes.
“‘Mũthenya ũcio-rĩ, nĩngatũma andũ moime harĩ niĩ marĩ na marikabu, mathiĩ makahahũre andũ a Kushi, moime mwĩcaaro-inĩ wao. Nĩmakanyiitwo nĩ ruo rwa ngoro mũthenya ũcio bũrũri wa Misiri ũkaaniinwo, nĩgũkorwo ti-itherũ nĩũgakinya.
10 Thus says the Lord God; I will also destroy the multitude of the Egyptians by the hand of Nabuchodonosor king of Babylon,
“‘Mwathani Jehova ekuuga ũũ: “‘Nĩnganiina kĩrĩndĩ kĩa Misiri, hũthĩrĩte guoko kwa Nebukadinezaru, mũthamaki wa Babuloni.
11 his [hand] and his people's; [they are] plagues sent forth from the nations to destroy the land: and they all shall unsheath their swords against Egypt, and the land shall be filled with slain.
We na mbũtũ ciake cia ita, o mbũtũ icio ikĩrĩtie ndũrĩrĩ iria ingĩ ciothe kwaga tha, nĩcio ikaarehwo, iniine bũrũri ũcio. Nĩigacomora hiũ ciao cia njora, ciũkĩrĩre bũrũri wa Misiri na ciyũrie bũrũri ũcio andũ arĩa moragĩtwo.
12 And I will make their rivers desolate, and will destroy the land and the fulness of it by the hands of strangers: I the Lord have spoken.
Nĩngatũma tũrũũĩ tuothe twa Rũũĩ rwa Nili tũhwe, naguo bũrũri ũcio ndĩwenderie andũ aaganu; ngaawananga na moko ma andũ a kũngĩ, guo mwene, o hamwe na kĩrĩa gĩothe kĩrĩ kuo. Niĩ Jehova nĩ niĩ njarĩtie.
13 For thus says the Lord God; I will also destroy the nobles from Memphis, and the princes of Memphis out of the land of Egypt; and they shall be no more.
“‘Mwathani Jehova ekuuga ũũ: “‘Nĩngathũkangia ngai cia mĩhianano na niine mĩhiano ĩrĩa ĩrĩ Nofu. Gũtigacooka kũgĩa mũthamaki kũu bũrũri wa Misiri, na nĩngaiyũria bũrũri ũcio wothe guoya.
14 And I will destroy the land of Phathore, and will send fire upon Tanis, and will execute vengeance on Diospolis.
O nakuo Pathirosi nĩngakwananga, na ngwatie mwaki kũu Zoani, o na herithanie kũu Thebesi.
15 And I will pour out my wrath upon Sais the strength of Egypt, and will destroy the multitude of Memphis.
O nakuo Pelusiumu nĩngagũitĩrĩria mangʼũrĩ makwa, o kũu kĩĩgitĩro kĩa hinya kĩa bũrũri wa Misiri, na njeherie kĩrĩndĩ gĩa kũu Thebesi.
16 And I will send fire upon Egypt; and Syene shall be sorely troubled; and there shall be a breaking in Diospolis, and waters shall be poured out.
Nĩngagwatia mwaki kũu bũrũri wa Misiri, nakuo Pelusiumu nĩgũkeehũũrithania nĩ ruo. Thebesi nĩgũgatharĩkĩrwo. Nofu nĩgũgakorwo na mĩnyamaro ĩtegũtigithĩria.
17 The youths of Heliopolis and Bubastum shall fall by the sword, and the women shall go into captivity.
Aanake a Heliopoli na a Bubasiti makooragwo na rũhiũ rwa njora, nao andũ a matũũra macio manene matahwo.
18 And the day shall be darkened in Taphnae, when I have broken there the scepters of Egypt: and the pride of her strength shall perish there: and a cloud shall cover her, and her daughters shall be taken prisoners.
Mũthenya nĩũkagĩa nduma kũu Tehafunehasu rĩrĩa ngoinanga icooki rĩa Misiri; kũu nĩkuo hinya wake ũcio etĩĩaga naguo ũgaathirĩra. Nĩakahumbĩrwo nĩ matu, namo matũũra make nĩmagatahwo.
19 And I will execute judgment on Egypt; and they shall know that I am the Lord.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio nĩngaherithia bũrũri wa Misiri, nao nĩmakamenya atĩ niĩ nĩ niĩ Jehova.’”
20 And it came to pass in the eleventh year, in the first month, on the seventh [day] of the month, the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
Mwaka-inĩ wa ikũmi na ũmwe, mũthenya wa mũgwanja wa mweri wa mbere, kiugo kĩa Jehova nĩkĩanginyĩrĩire, ngĩĩrwo atĩrĩ:
21 Son of man, I have broken the arms of Pharao, king of Egypt; and, behold, it has not been bound up to be healed, to have a plaster put upon it, [or] to be strengthened to lay hold of the sword.
“Mũrũ wa mũndũ, nĩnyunĩte guoko kwa Firaũni, mũthamaki wa Misiri. Gũtiohetwo na taama ũrĩ na ndawa nĩguo kũhone, kana gũkoohanio na mĩtĩ nĩguo kũgwate kũgĩe na hinya wa kuoya rũhiũ rwa njora.
22 Therefore thus says the Lord God; Behold, I am against Pharao king of Egypt, and I will break his strong and outstretched arms, and will strike down his sword out of his hand.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, Mwathani Jehova ekuuga ũũ: Niĩ nĩngũũkĩrĩra Firaũni mũthamaki wa bũrũri wa Misiri. Nĩngũmuuna moko meerĩ, kũrĩa kũgima na kũrĩa kuunĩku, na ndũme rũhiũ rwa njora ruume guoko-inĩ gwake rũgwe thĩ.
23 And I will disperse the Egyptians among the nations, and will utterly scatter them among the countries.
Nĩngahurunja andũ a Misiri ndũrĩrĩ-inĩ, na ndĩmaharaganĩrie mabũrũri-inĩ.
24 And I will strengthen the arms of the king of Babylon, and put my sword into his hand: and he shall bring it upon Egypt, and shall take her plunder and seize her spoils.
Nĩngekĩra moko ma mũthamaki wa Babuloni hinya, na ndĩmũnengere rũhiũ rwakwa rwa njora arũnyiite na guoko, no nĩngoina moko ma Firaũni, nake acaaĩre hau mbere yake, o ta mũndũ ũgurarĩtio nguraro ya gĩkuũ.
25 Yes, I will strengthen the arms of the king of Babylon, and the arms of Pharao shall fail: and they shall know that I am the Lord, when I have put my sword into the hands of the king of Babylon, and he shall stretch it out over the land of Egypt.
Nĩngekĩra moko ma mũthamaki wa Babuloni hinya, no moko ma Firaũni nĩmakaaga hinya. Hĩndĩ ĩyo nĩmakamenya atĩ niĩ nĩ niĩ Jehova, rĩrĩa ngaanengera mũthamaki wa Babuloni rũhiũ rwakwa rwa njora arũnyiite na guoko, nake arũhiũrie okĩrĩre bũrũri wa Misiri.
26 And I will disperse the Egyptians among the nations, and utterly scatter them among the countries; and they all shall know that I am the Lord.
Nĩngahurunja andũ a Misiri ndũrĩrĩ-inĩ, na ndĩmaharaganĩrie mabũrũri-inĩ. Hĩndĩ ĩyo nĩmakamenya atĩ niĩ nĩ niĩ Jehova.”
