< Jezekiel 47 >

1 And he brought me to the entrance of the house; and, behold, water issued from under the porch eastward, for the front of the house looked eastward; and the water came down from the right side, from the south to the altar.
Ame la kplɔm gbugbɔ va gbedoxɔ la ƒe mɔnu, eye mekpɔ tsi wònɔ dodom to gbedoxɔ la ƒe kpui te yina ɣedzeƒe lɔƒo, elabena gbedoxɔ la dze ŋgɔ ɣedzeƒe. Tsi la nɔ dodom tso gbedoxɔ la ƒe dziehe lɔƒo to vɔsamlekpui la ƒe dziehe.
2 And he brought me out by the way of the northern gate, and he led me round by the way outside to the gate of the court that looks eastward; and, behold, water came down from the right side,
Tete wòkplɔm do goe to anyiehegbo si dze ŋgɔ ɣedzeƒe la me, eye tsi la nɔ tsatsam tso dziehe lɔƒo.
3 in [the direction] in which a man went forth opposite; and [there was] a measuring line in his hand, and he measured a thousand [cubits] with the measure;
Esi ame la ɖo ta ɣedzeƒe lɔƒo, eye wòlé dzidzeti la ɖe asi la, edzidze mita alafa atɔ̃, eye wòkplɔm to tɔsisi si me afɔkɔe bu ɖo la me.
4 and he passed through the water; [it was] water of a fountain: and [again] he measured a thousand, and passed through the water; and the water was up to the thighs: and [again] he measured a thousand; and he passed through water up to the loins.
Egadzidze mita alafa atɔ̃ bubu, eye wòkplɔm to tɔsisi si ɖo klonu la me. Edzidze mita alafa atɔ̃ bubu, eye wòkplɔm to tɔsisi si ɖo ali la me.
5 and [again] he measured a thousand; and he could not pass through: for [the water] rose as of a torrent which [men] can’t pass over.
Egadzidze mita alafa atɔ̃ bubu, ke azɔ la, ezu tɔsisi si nyemate ŋu atso o, elabena tsi la ɖɔ, eye wògoglo be woate ŋu aƒui, eye ame aɖeke mate ŋu atsoe o.
6 And he said to me, Hast you seen [this], son of man? Then he brought me, and led me back to the brink of the river
Ebiam be, “Ame vi, èkpɔ nu sia?” Azɔ la, ekplɔm yi tɔsisi la to.
7 as I returned; and, behold, on the brink of the river [there were] very many trees on this side and on that side.
Esi meɖo afi ma la, mekpɔ ati geɖewo le tɔsisi la ƒe axa eveawo.
8 And he said to me, This is the water that goes forth to Galilee that lies eastward, and it is gone down to Arabia, and has reached as far as to the sea to the outlet of the water: and it shall heal the waters.
Egblɔ nam be, “Tsi sia tsana ɖoa ta ɣedzeƒe, gena ɖe Araba me, afi si wògena ɖe Atsiaƒu me le. Ne ege ɖe Atsiaƒu la me la, tsi la zua tsi vivi.
9 And it shall come to pass, [that] every animal of living [and] moving creatures, all on which the river shall come, shall live: and there shall be there very many fish; for this water shall go there, and it shall heal [them], and they shall live: everything on which the river shall come shall live.
Nu gbagbe geɖewo anɔ eme, afi sia afi si wòatsa ayi. Tɔmelã geɖewo anɔ eme, elabena tsi sia tsana yina afi ma, eye wònana dzetsi trɔna zua tsi nyui, ale be afi sia afi si tɔsisi la tsa yi la, nu sia nu anɔ agbe.
10 And fishers shall stand there from Ingadin to Enagallim; it shall be a place to spread out nets upon; it shall be distinct; and the fishes thereof [shall be] as the fishes of the great sea, a very great multitude.
Tɔƒodelawo atsi tsitre ɖe tɔsisi la to, tso En Gedi yi En Eglaim, teƒe anɔ anyi na ɖɔkpɔkplɔ. Tɔmelã vovovowo anɔ anyi abe Atsiaƒu Gã la ƒe tɔmelãwo ene.
11 But at the outlet of the water, and the turn of it, and where it overflows [its banks], they shall not heal at all; they are given to salt.
Ke eƒe siiwo kple tawo matrɔ o, ke boŋ woagblẽ wo ɖi na dze.
12 And every fruit tree shall grow by the river, [even] on the bank of it on this side and on that side: they shall not decay upon it, neither shall their fruit fail: they shall bring forth the first-fruit of their early crop, for these their waters come forth of the sanctuary: and their fruit shall be for meat, and their foliage for health.
Kutsetseti ƒomeviwo katã atsi ɖe tɔsisi la ƒe go eveawo dzi. Woƒe aŋugbawo malũ xɛ o, eye woƒe kukutsetsewo nu matso o. Woatse ku ɣleti sia ɣleti, elabena tɔsisi tso kɔkɔeƒe la tsa yi wo gbɔ. Woƒe tsetseawo anye nuɖuɖu, eye woƒe aŋugbawo azu atike.”
13 Thus says the Lord God; You shall inherit these borders of the land; [they are] given by lot to the twelve tribes of the children of Israel.
Ale Aƒetɔ Yehowa gblɔe nye esi: “Esiawoe nye liƒo siwo anɔ anyigba siwo miama na Israel ƒe to wuieveawo ƒe domenyinyi la ŋu, eye miana anyigba eve Yosef.
14 And you shall inherit it, each according to his brother's portion, [even the land] concerning which I lifted up my hand to give [it] to your fathers: and this land shall fall to you by lot.
Ele be miama anyigba la sɔsɔe ɖe wo dome, elabena mekɔ nye asi dzi ka atam be matsɔe ana mia tɔgbuiwo, eye anyigba sia azu miaƒe domenyinu.
15 And these are the borders of the land that lies northward, from the great sea that comes down, and divides the entrance of Emaseldam;
“Esiae anye anyigba la ƒe liƒowo. “Le anyiehe lɔƒo la, liƒo la atso Atsiaƒu Gã la nu, ato Hetlon ayi Lebo Hamat va se ɖe Zedad.
16 Maabthera, Ebrameliam, between the coasts of Damascus and the coasts of Emathi, the habitation of Saunan, which [places] are above the coasts of Auranitis.
Berota kple Sibraim, afi si le liƒo si le Damasko kple Hamat dzi, ayi keke Hazer Hatikon, le Hauran ƒe liƒo dzi.
17 These are the borders from the sea, from the habitations of Aenan, the coasts of Damascus, and the northern [coasts].
Liƒo la atso atsiaƒu la gbɔ ayi Hazar Enan le Damasko ƒe anyieheliƒo dzi kple Hamat ƒe anyieheliƒo. Esiae anye dzigbemeliƒo la.
18 And the eastern coasts between Loranitis, and Damascus, and the land of Galaad, and the land of Israel, the Jordan divides to the sea that is east of the city of palm-trees. These are the eastern [coasts].
Le ɣedzeƒe lɔƒo la, liƒo la ato Hauran kple Damasko dome, ato Yɔdan ŋu, ato Gilead kple Israel ƒe anyigba dome ayi ɣedzeƒeƒu la gbɔ ayi keke Tamar. Esiae anye ɣedzeƒeliƒo la.
19 And the southern and south-western [coasts are] from Thaeman and the city of palm-trees, to the water of Marimoth Cadem, reaching forth to the great sea. This part is the south and southwest.
Le dziehe lɔƒo la, atso Tamar ayi keke Meriba Kades ƒe tsiwo gbɔ, azɔ ato Wadi le Egipte xa, ayi Atsiaƒu Gã la gbɔ. Esiae anye Dzieheliƒo la.
20 This part of the great sea forms a border, till [one comes] opposite the entrance of Emath, [even] as far as the entrance thereof. These are the parts west of Emath.
Le ɣetoɖoƒe lɔƒo la, Atsiaƒu Gã la anye liƒo la na teƒe aɖe si le Lebo Hamat la kasa. Esiae anye ɣetoɖoƒeliƒo la.
21 So you shall divide this land to them, [even] to the tribes of Israel.
“Ele be miama anyigba la ɖe mia dome ɖe Israel ƒe toawo nu.
22 You shall cast the lot upon it, for yourselves and the strangers that sojourn in the midst of you, who have begotten children in the midst of you: and they shall be to you as natives among the children of Israel; they shall eat with you in [their] inheritance in the midst of the tribes of Israel.
Ele be miamae abe domenyinu ene na mia ɖokuiwo kple amedzro siwo va tsi mia dome, ame siwo si viwo le. Ele be miabu wo abe Israelvi dzɔleaƒeawo ene. Abe miawo ŋutɔ ene la, woana domenyinu wo ɖe Israel ƒe towo dome.
23 And they shall be in the tribe of proselytes among the proselytes that are with them: there shall you give them an inheritance, says the Lord God.
To sia to si me amedzro la tsi la, afi mae miana eƒe domenyinu le.” Aƒetɔ Yehowae gblɔe.
