Ezekiel 29
1 In the tenth year, in the tenth month, on the twelfth day of the month, the word of YHWH came to me, saying,
Pa tsiku lakhumi ndi chiwiri la mwezi wakhumi, chaka chakhumi, Yehova anandiyankhula kuti:
2 "Son of man, set your 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 says YHWH: "Look, I am against you, Pharaoh king of Egypt, the great monster that lies in the midst of his rivers, that has said, 'My river is my 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 I will put hooks in your jaws, and I will make the fish of your rivers stick to your scales; and I will bring you up out of the midst of your rivers, with all the fish of your rivers which stick to your 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 I'll cast you forth into the wilderness, you and all the fish of your rivers. You'll fall on the open field. You won't be brought together, nor gathered. I have given you for food to the animals of the earth and to the birds of the sky.
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 All the inhabitants of Egypt will know that I am YHWH, 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 you with their hand, you splintered and dislocated their shoulders; and when they leaned on you, you shattered and caused their legs to be unsteady."
Pamene anakugwira unathethekera mʼmanja mwawo ndi kucheka mapewa awo. Pamene anakutsamira, unathyoka ndipo misana yawo inagwedezeka.
8 "'Therefore thus says YHWH: "Look, I will bring a sword on you, and will cut off man and animal from you.
“‘Nʼchifukwa chake Ine Ambuye Yehova ndikuti, ndikubweretsera lupanga kuti lidzaphe anthu pamodzi ndi nyama zomwe.
9 The land of Egypt shall be a desolation and a waste; and they shall know that I am YHWH. Because he has 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 therefore, look, I am against you, and against your rivers, and I will make the land of Egypt an utter waste and desolation, from the tower of Syene even to 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 animal 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 I will make the land of Egypt a desolation in the midst of the countries that are desolate; and her cities among the cities that are laid waste shall be a desolation 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 "'For thus says YHWH: "At the end of forty years will I gather the Egyptians from the peoples where 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 back the captivity of Egypt, and will cause them to return into the land of Pathros, into the land of their birth; 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 base of the kingdoms; neither shall it any more lift itself up above the nations: and 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 It shall be no more the confidence of the house of Israel, bringing iniquity to memory, when they turn to look after them: and they shall know that I am YHWH."'"
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 It came to pass in the seven and twentieth year, in the first month, in the first day of the month, the word of YHWH came to me, saying,
Pa tsiku loyamba la mwezi woyamba, chaka cha 27, Yehova anandiyankhula kuti:
18 "Son of man, Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon caused his army to serve a great service against Tyre: every head was made bald, and every shoulder was worn; yet had he no wages, nor his army, from Tyre, 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 says YHWH: 'Look, I will give the land of Egypt to Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon; and he shall carry off 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 as his recompense for which he served, because they worked for me,' says YHWH.
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 a horn to bud forth to the house of Israel, and I will give you the opening of the mouth in their midst; and they shall know that I am YHWH.'"
“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.”
