Ezekiel 17
1 And it came [the] word of Yahweh to me saying.
Kiugo kĩa Jehova nĩkĩanginyĩrĩire, ngĩĩrwo atĩrĩ,
2 O son of humankind ask a riddle a riddle and speak a parable a parable concerning [the] house of Israel.
“Mũrũ wa mũndũ, gwatania ndaĩ na warĩrie andũ a nyũmba ya Isiraeli na ngerekano.
3 And you will say thus he says - [the] Lord Yahweh the eagle great great of wings long of pinion full plumage which [belonged] to it variegated plumage it came to Lebanon and it took [the] treetop of the cedar.
Meere atĩrĩ, ‘Mwathani Jehova ekuuga atĩrĩ: Nderi nene ĩrĩ na mathagu marĩ hinya, na njoya ndaaya, na macoya ma marangi maingĩ nĩyokire Lebanoni. Ĩkĩnyiita gacũmbĩrĩ ka mũtarakwa,
4 [the] top Shoots its it plucked off and it brought it to a land of merchant[s] in a city of traders it placed it.
ĩkiuna thuuna ya gacũmbĩrĩ kau, na ĩkĩmĩtwara bũrũri wa onjoria, nayo ĩkĩmĩhaanda thĩinĩ wa itũũra inene rĩa onjoria.
5 And it took one of [the] seed of the land and it put it in a field of seed take [it] at waters many a willow it placed it.
“‘Ĩgĩcooka ĩgĩkuua mbeũ imwe cia bũrũri wanyu, na ĩgĩcihaanda tĩĩri-inĩ mũnoru. Ĩgĩcihaanda ta mũtĩ ũrĩa ũkũraga hakuhĩ na maaĩ maingĩ,
6 And it sprouted and it became a vine spreading low of stature to turn branches its to it and roots its under it they were and it became a vine and it produced shoots and it sent out boughs.
naguo ũkĩringũra, ũgĩtuĩka mũthabibũ mũkuhĩ ũtheeremete. Honge ciaguo ikĩmĩhũgũkĩra, no mĩri yaguo ĩgĩkorwo ĩthiĩte na thĩ rungu rwayo. Nĩ ũndũ ũcio ũgĩtuĩka mũthabibũ, ũkĩruta honge irĩ na tũhwangʼa tũrĩ na mathangũ.
7 And it was an eagle one great great of wings and great of plumage and there! the vine this it bent roots its on it and branches its it sent out to it to water it from [the] beds of planting its.
“‘No nĩ kwarĩ na nderi ĩngĩ nene yarĩ na mathagu maarĩ na hinya, na maiyũrĩte njoya. Hĩndĩ ĩyo mũthabibũ ũcio ũgĩtwara mĩri yaguo yerekeire na kũrĩ nderi ĩyo uumĩte hau wahaandĩtwo, naguo ũgĩtambũrũkia honge ciaguo harĩ yo nĩguo wone maaĩ.
8 To a field good to waters many it [was] planted to produce branch[es] and to bear fruit to become a vine of splendor.
Nĩwahaandĩtwo tĩĩri-inĩ mwega handũ harĩ na maaĩ maingĩ nĩguo ũrute honge, na ũciare maciaro, na ũtuĩke mũthabibũ ũrĩ na riiri.’
9 Say thus he says [the] Lord Yahweh will it prosper? ¿ not roots its will it pull up and fruit its - will it strip off? and it will wither all [the] fresh [things] of growth its it will wither and not by an arm great and by a people numerous to lift up it from roots its.
“Meere atĩrĩ, ‘Ũũ nĩguo Mwathani Jehova ekuuga: Hihi nĩũgatheerema? Githĩ ndũkamunywo, na maciaro maguo mahũrũrwo nĩguo ũhoohe? Mathangũ maguo mothe ma mũringũrano nĩmakahooha. Ndũkabatara guoko kũrĩ na hinya, kana andũ aingĩ a kũũmunya na mĩri.
10 And there! [it is] planted ¿ will it prosper ¿ not when touches it [the] wind of the east will it wither completely on [the] beds of growth its it will wither.
O na ũngĩmunywo, ũhaandwo handũ hangĩ-rĩ, hihi nĩũgatheerema? Githĩ ndũkahooha biũ rĩrĩa rũhuho rwa mwena wa irathĩro rũkaũhuruta, naguo ũhoohere o hau wakũrĩire?’”
11 And it came [the] word of Yahweh to me saying.
Hĩndĩ ĩyo kiugo kĩa Jehova gĩkĩnginyĩrĩra, ngĩĩrwo atĩrĩ,
12 Say please to [the] house of rebellion ¿ not do you know what? [are] these [things] say there! he went [the] king of Babylon Jerusalem and he took king its and princes its and he brought them to himself Babylon towards.
“Ũria andũ a nyũmba ĩno ya ũremi atĩrĩ, ‘Mũtiramenya gĩtũmi kĩa maũndũ macio?’ Meere atĩrĩ, ‘Mũthamaki wa Babuloni nĩathiire Jerusalemu, agĩtaha mũthamaki wakuo na andũ arĩa maarĩ igweta akuo, akĩmatwara nginya Babuloni.
13 And he took one of [the] offspring of royalty and he made with him a covenant and he made go him in an oath and [the] leaders of the land he took.
Ningĩ akĩoya mũndũ ũmwe wa nyũmba ya ũthamaki akĩrĩkanĩra kĩrĩkanĩro nake, na akĩmwĩhĩtithia. Ningĩ agĩcooka akĩoya atongoria a bũrũri ũcio agĩthiĩ nao,
14 To be a kingdom lowly to not to exalt itself to keep covenant his to continue it.
nĩguo ũthamaki ũcio wagithio hinya, ndũkanehaande rĩngĩ, no ũtũũragio nĩ gwathĩkĩra kĩrĩkanĩro kĩu gĩake.
15 And he rebelled against him by sending messengers his Egypt to give to him horses and a people numerous ¿ will he prosper ¿ will he escape the [one who] does these [things] and will he break? a covenant and will he escape?
No rĩrĩ, mũthamaki ũcio akĩmũremera na ũndũ wa gũtũma abarũthi ake mathiĩ bũrũri wa Misiri makamũrehere mbarathi na mbũtũ nene ya ita. Hihi nĩekũhootana? Mũndũ ũrĩa wĩkaga ciĩko ta icio no ehonokie? Mũndũ ũcio aakĩhota gũthũkia kĩrĩkanĩro na acooke ehonokie?
16 [by] [the] life Of me [the] utterance of [the] Lord Yahweh if not in [the] place of the king who made king him whom he despised oath his and whom he broke covenant his with him in [the] midst of Babylon he will die.
“‘Mwathani Jehova ekuuga atĩrĩ: Ti-itherũ o ta ũrĩa niĩ ndũũraga muoyo, mũndũ ũcio agaakuĩra kũu Babuloni, bũrũri wa mũthamaki ũcio wamũikarĩirie gĩtĩ kĩa ũthamaki, ũcio aanyararire mwĩhĩtwa wake na agĩthũkia kĩrĩkanĩro gĩake.
17 And not with an army large and with a company great he will do with him Pharaoh in battle when pour out a mound and when build a siege-wall to cut off lives many.
Firaũni hamwe na mbũtũ yake ya hinya ya ita o na kĩrĩndĩ kĩingĩ, matikamũteithia mbaara-inĩ, rĩrĩa ihumbu ĩgaakwo na gũthiũrũrũkĩrio na rũirigo nĩguo mĩoyo mĩingĩ ĩniinwo.
18 And he despised [the] oath by breaking [the] covenant and there! he had given hand his and all these [things] he did not he will escape.
Nĩanyararire mwĩhĩtwa ũcio na ũndũ wa gũthũkia kĩrĩkanĩro kĩu. Tondũ nĩanyiitanĩire na kĩrĩkanĩro kĩu, no agĩcooka gwĩka maũndũ macio mothe-rĩ, ndakahonoka.
19 Therefore thus he says [the] Lord Yahweh [by] [the] life of me if not oath my which he despised and covenant my which he broke and I will requite it on own head his.
“‘Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Mwathani Jehova ekuuga atĩrĩ: Ti-itherũ o ta ũrĩa niĩ ndũũraga muoyo, nĩngatũma acookererwo nĩ mwĩhĩtwa ũcio wakwa aanyararire o na kĩrĩkanĩro gĩakwa kĩu aathũkirie.
20 And I will spread over him net my and he will be caught in hunting net my and I will bring him Babylon towards and I will enter into judgment with him there unfaithfulness his which he has acted unfaithfully against me.
Nĩngamũtambũrũkĩria wabu wakwa, nake agwatio nĩ mũtego wakwa. Nĩngamũrehe Babuloni ndĩmũciirithĩrie kuo, tondũ nĩagire kwĩhokeka harĩ niĩ.
21 And all (fugitives his *Q(K)*) among all troops his by the sword they will fall and the [ones who] survive to every wind they will be scattered and you will know that I Yahweh I have spoken.
Nacio mbũtũ ciake cia thigari ciothe iria ikoora nĩikooragwo na rũhiũ rwa njora, namo matigari mao mahurunjĩrwo huho-inĩ ciothe. Hĩndĩ ĩyo nĩmũkamenya atĩ niĩ Jehova nĩ niĩ njarĩtie.
22 Thus he says [the] Lord Yahweh and I will take I from [the] treetop of the cedar high and I will place [it] from [the] top of young shoots its a tender [shoot] I will pluck off and I will plant [it] I on a mountain high and lofty.
“‘Mwathani Jehova ekuuga atĩrĩ: Niĩ mwene nĩngatua karũhonge kuuma gacũmbĩrĩ ka mũtarakwa ndĩkahaande. Ngaatua karũhonge koororo ka mũthunano kuuma gacũmbĩrĩ kaguo, na ndĩkahaande kĩrĩma-inĩ kĩraihu na gĩtũũgĩru na igũrũ.
23 On [the] mountain of [the] height of Israel I will plant it and it will bear branch[es] and it will produce fruit and it will become a cedar majestic and they will dwell under it every bird every wing in [the] shadow of branches its they will dwell.
Kũu kĩrĩma-igũrũ gĩa Isiraeli nĩkuo ngakahaanda; nĩgakaruta honge na gaciare maciaro, naguo nĩũgatuĩka mũtarakwa ũrĩ na riiri. Nyoni cia mĩthemba yothe nĩigaaka itara ciacio honge-inĩ ciaguo; nĩigatũũra kĩĩruru-inĩ kĩa honge ciaguo.
24 And they will know all [the] trees of the field that I Yahweh I bring low - a tree tall I raise up a tree low I make dry a tree moist and I make sprout a tree dry I Yahweh I have spoken and I will act.
Mĩtĩ yothe ya mũgũnda nĩĩkamenya atĩ niĩ Jehova nĩ niĩ nyiihagia mũtĩ ũrĩa mũraihu na ngatũma mũtĩ ũrĩa mũkuhĩ ũkũre ũraihe. Nĩnyũmagia mũtĩ ũrĩa mũruru, naguo mũtĩ ũrĩa mũũmũ ngatũma ũrure. “‘Niĩ Jehova nĩ niĩ njarĩtie, na nĩngwĩka ũguo.’”
