< Ezekiel 25 >

1 [Some time later, ] Yahweh gave me another message. [He said, ]
Kiugo kĩa Jehova nĩkĩanginyĩrĩire ngĩĩrwo atĩrĩ:
2 “You human, turn toward where the Ammon people- [lives], and prophesy [what will happen to] them.
“Mũrũ wa mũndũ, erekeria ũthiũ waku harĩ Aamoni, na ũmarathĩre ũhoro wa kũmookĩrĩra.
3 Say about them, ‘This is what Yahweh the Lord says: “You shouted joyfully when my [in Jerusalem] was destroyed, and when the country/land of Israel was ruined, and when the people of Judah were (exiled/forced to go) [to Babylonia].
Meere atĩrĩ, ‘Iguai kiugo kĩa Mwathani Jehova. Ũũ nĩguo Mwathani Jehova ekuuga: Tondũ nĩmuoigire, “Aha!” Igũrũ rĩa harĩa-hakwa-haamũre hĩndĩ ĩrĩa haathaahirio, o na igũrũ rĩa bũrũri wa Isiraeli rĩrĩa wanangirwo, na ningĩ igũrũ rĩa andũ a Juda hĩndĩ ĩrĩa maatahirwo-rĩ,
4 Therefore, I am going to allow you to be conquered by people [who will come] from the east. They will set up their tents in your country and live there. And they will eat the fruit from [fruit trees] and drink the [from your cattle].
nĩ ũndũ ũcio nĩngũmũneana kũrĩ andũ a kũu irathĩro mũtuĩke kĩndũ kĩao. Nĩmagaaka kambĩ ciikaro ciao na mambe hema ciao, thĩinĩ wanyu; nĩmakaarĩa matunda manyu, na manyue iria rĩanyu.
5 I will [your capital city] Rabbah to become a pasture for camels, and the rest of Ammon to [only] a resting place for sheep. Then you will know that I, Yahweh, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].”
Nĩngagarũra Raba gũtuĩke ũrĩithio wa ngamĩĩra, nakuo Amoni gũtuĩke gwa kwarahwo nĩ ngʼondu. Hĩndĩ ĩyo nĩmũkamenya atĩ niĩ nĩ niĩ Jehova.
6 This is what [I], Yahweh the Lord, say: “You clapped your [joyfully] and stomped your feet, and laughed because you despised [the people in] the land of Israel.
Nĩgũkorwo ũũ nĩguo Mwathani Jehova ekuuga: Tondũ inyuĩ nĩmũhũũrĩte hĩ na mũkaringithia makinya manyu thĩ, mũgĩkenagĩrĩra bũrũri wa Isiraeli mũrĩ na rũmena ruothe rwa ngoro cianyu,
7 Therefore, I will use my power [MTY] against you, and I will enable [other] nations [conquer you and] take away your valuable possessions. I will destroy you completely [DOU], with the result that you no longer will be a nation. When that happens, people will know that I, Yahweh, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].’”
nĩ ũndũ ũcio nĩngamũtambũrũkĩria guoko gwakwa, ndĩmũũkĩrĩre na ndĩmũneane mũtahwo nĩ ndũrĩrĩ. Nĩngamweherania na ndũrĩrĩ, na ndĩmũniine mabũrũri-inĩ. Nĩngamwananga, na inyuĩ nĩmũkamenya atĩ niĩ nĩ niĩ Jehova.’”
8 This is [also] what Yahweh the Lord says: “[The people of] [south of Ammon] and [the people of] [south of Moab despised Israel and] said, ‘The people [MTY] of Israel have [as unimportant] as all the other nations!’
“Mwathani Jehova ekuuga atĩrĩ: ‘Tondũ Moabi na Seiru moigire atĩrĩ, “Ta rora, nyũmba ya Juda ĩtuĩkĩte o ta ndũrĩrĩ iria ingĩ ciothe,”
9 Therefore, I will destroy the cities that protect the borders of Moab, starting at Beth-Jeshimoth, Baal-Meon, and Kiriathaim, the finest cities in Moab.
nĩ ũndũ ũcio nĩngaguũria rũbaru rwa Moabi, nyambĩrĩirie na matũũra makuo ma mĩhaka-inĩ, na nĩmo Bethi-Jeshimothu, na Baali-Meoni, na Kiriathaimu, na nĩmo monagwo marĩ riiri wa bũrũri ũcio.
10 I will enable people from the east to conquer Moab and also to conquer Ammon. As a result, [I will cause that] Ammon will no longer be remembered by other nations.
Nĩnganeana Moabi hamwe na Aamoni moko-inĩ ma andũ a Irathĩro matuĩke indo ciao, nĩgeetha Aamoni acio matikanaririkanwo ndũrĩrĩ-inĩ;
11 I will also punish [the people of] Moab. When that happens, they will know that I, Yahweh, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].”
na niĩ nĩngaherithia Moabi. Hĩndĩ ĩyo nĩmakamenya atĩ niĩ nĩ niĩ Jehova.’”
12 This is [also] what Yahweh the Lord says: “[You people of] Edom are guilty of getting revenge on the people [MTY] of Judah.
“Mwathani Jehova ekuuga atĩrĩ: ‘Tondũ Edomu nĩerĩhĩirie harĩ nyũmba ya Juda na agĩtuĩka mũhĩtia mũno nĩ ũndũ wa gwĩka ũguo-rĩ,
13 Therefore this is what [I], Yahweh the Lord, say: 'I will use my power against [the people of] Edom and will get rid of their men and their animals. I will ruin the land from Teman [region in central Edom] to Dedan [region in the south of Edom], and many of their men will be killed [their enemies] swords.'
nĩ ũndũ ũcio Mwathani Jehova ekuuga atĩrĩ: Nĩngatambũrũkia guoko gwakwa njũkĩrĩre Edomu na njũrage andũ akuo na mahiũ mao. Nĩngakwananga, na kuuma Timani nginya Dedani, nĩmakooragwo na rũhiũ rwa njora.
14 The Israeli people will use their power [MTY] to get revenge on [the people of] Edom. They will show [the people of] Edom that I have been angry with them, and I will punish [MTY] them. The people of Edom will experience my getting revenge on them. Then they will know that I, Yahweh the Lord, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].”
Nĩngerĩhĩria harĩ Edomu na guoko kwa andũ akwa Isiraeli, nao nĩmageeka Edomu kũringana na marakara makwa na mangʼũrĩ makwa; nĩmakamenya kwĩrĩhĩria gwakwa, ũguo nĩguo Mwathani Jehova ekuuga.’”
15 This is [also] what Yahweh the Lord says: “The Philistia people-group wanted very much to get revenge [on the people of Judah]. They very maliciously wanted to destroy [Judah].
“Mwathani Jehova ekuuga atĩrĩ; ‘Tondũ Afilisti nĩmekire maũndũ ma kwĩrĩhĩria, na makĩĩrĩhĩria marĩ na rũmena ngoro-inĩ ciao na marĩ na muku wa matukũ maingĩ magĩtua atĩ nĩmekwananga Juda,
16 Therefore this is what I, Yahweh the Lord, say: I am about to use my power [MTY] against the Philistia people. I will get rid of the Kereth people-group and all [those who live along] the coast of the [Mediterranean] Sea.
nĩ ũndũ ũcio Mwathani Jehova ekuuga ũũ: Ngirie gũtambũrũkia guoko gwakwa njũkĩrĩre Afilisti, na nĩngeheria Akerethi na nyanange arĩa matigaire ndwere-inĩ cia iria.
17 By the way I punish them, I will get great revenge on them and show that I am angry with them. And when I get revenge on them, they will know that I, Yahweh the Lord, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].'”
Nĩngerĩhĩria harĩo na rĩĩrĩhĩria inene na ndĩmaherithie ndĩ na mangʼũrĩ. Hĩndĩ ĩyo nĩmakamenya atĩ niĩ nĩ niĩ Jehova, hĩndĩ ĩrĩa ngeerĩhĩria harĩo.’”
