< Ezekiel 38 >

1 The word of Yahweh came to me, saying,
Shoko raJehovha rakasvika kwandiri richiti,
2 “Son of man, set your face toward Gog, the land of Magog, the chief prince of Meshech and Tubal; and prophesy against him.
“Mwanakomana womunhu, rinzira chiso chako kuna Gogi, wenyika yeMagogi, muchinda mukuru weMesheki neTubhari; uprofite pamusoro pake
3 Say, 'The Lord Yahweh says this: Behold! I am against you, Gog, chief prince of Meshech and Tubal.
uti, ‘Zvanzi naIshe Jehovha: Ndine mhaka newe, iwe Gogi muchinda mukuru weMesheki neTubhari.
4 So I will turn you around and set hooks in your jaw; I will send you out with all your army, horses, and horsemen, all of them dressed in full armor, a great company with large shields and small shields, all of them holding swords!
Ndichakutendeutsa, ndigoisa zvikokovono mushaya dzako ndigokubudisa iwe nehondo yako yose, mabhiza ako, vatasvi vamabhiza vakashonga nguo dzehondo, uye navanhu vazhinji vane nhoo huru neduku, vose vachivheyesa minondo yavo.
5 Persia, Cush, and Libya are with them, all of them with shields and helmets!
Pezhia neEtiopia neRibhiya dzinenge dziripowo, vose vaine nhoo nenguwani dzokurwa,
6 Gomer and all her troops, and Beth Togarmah, from the far parts of the north, and all its troops! Many peoples are with you!
Gomeriwo namauto ayo ose, neBheti Togarima ichibva kumusoro chaiko namauto ayo ose, ndudzi zhinji dzinewe.
7 Get ready! Yes, prepare yourself and your troops assembled with you, and be their commander.
“‘Gadzirira; iva wakagadzirira, iwe pamwe chete navanhu vazhinji vakaungana pauri, iwe uve mukuru wavo.
8 You will be called after many days, and after some years you will go to a land that has recovered from the sword and that has been gathered from many peoples, gathered back to the mountains of Israel that had been a continuous ruin. But the land's people will be brought out of the peoples, and they will live in safety, all of them!
Shure kwamazuva mazhinji iwe uchadanidzira hondo. Pamakore anotevera, iwe uchakomba nyika yakabva muhondo, ina vanhu vakaunganidzwa kubva kundudzi zhinji kumakomo aIsraeri, akanga ava dongo kwenguva huru. Vakabudiswa kubva kundudzi, zvino vose vachagara zvakanaka.
9 So you will go up as a storm goes; you will be like a cloud covering the land, you and all your troops, all the many soldiers with you.
Iwe namauto ako ose nendudzi zhinji dzinewe muchakwira, muchienda sedutu; muchaita segore rinofukidza nyika.
10 The Lord Yahweh says this: It will happen on that day that plans will form in your heart, and you will devise wicked schemes.'
“‘Zvanzi naIshe Jehovha: Pazuva iro, mwoyo wako uchapindwa nepfungwa dzakaipa, uchafunga zano rakaipa.
11 Then you will say, 'I will go up to the open land; I will go to the quiet people living in safety, all of them living where there are no walls or bars, and where there are no city gates.
Iwe uchati, “Ndichakomba misha isina masvingo; ndicharwisa vanhu vasingafungiri vagere zvavo zvakanaka, vose vanogara vasina masvingo uye vasina masuo namazariro.
12 I will capture booty and steal plunder, in order to bring my hand against the ruins that are newly inhabited, and against the people gathered from the nations, people who are gaining livestock and property, and who are living at the center of the earth.'
Ndichapamba ndigotora nechisimba, ndichasimudza ruoko rwangu kuti ndirwise matongo ogarwa navanhu uye vanhu vakaungana kubva kundudzi vakapfuma pazvipfuwo nenhumbi, vagere pakati penyika.”
13 Sheba and Dedan, and the traders of Tarshish along with all its young warriors will say to you, 'Have you come to plunder? Have you assembled your armies to take away spoil, to carry off silver and gold, to take their livestock and property and to haul away much plunder?'
Shebha neDhedhani navashambadziri vokuTashishi nemisha yaro yose vachati kwauri, “Wauya kuzopamba here? Waunganidza vanhu kuti vatore zvipfuwo nenhumbi uye kuti utore zvakapambwa zvizhinji here?”’
14 Therefore prophesy, son of man, and say to Gog, 'The Lord Yahweh says this: On that day, when my people Israel are living securely, will you not learn about them?
“Naizvozvo, mwanakomana womunhu, profita uti kuna Gogi, ‘Zvanzi naIshe Jehovha: pazuva iro, vanhu vangu vaIsraeri vava kugara zvakanaka, haungazvioni here?
15 You will come from your place far away in the north with a great army, all of them riding on horses, a great company, a large army.
Uchauya uchibva kunzvimbo yako iri kumusoro chaiko, iwe nendudzi zhinji dzinewe, vose vakatasva mabhiza, vanhu vazhinji, hondo ine simba.
16 You will attack my people Israel like a cloud that covers the land. In the latter days I will bring you against my land, so the nations might know me when I show myself through you, Gog, to be holy before their eyes.
Uchauya kuzorwa navanhu vangu vaIsraeri segore rinofukidza nyika. Mumazuva anouya, iwe Gogi, ndichakuuyisa kuzorwa nenyika yangu, kuitira kuti ndudzi dzigondiziva pandinoratidza utsvene hwangu kubudikidza newe pamberi pavo.
17 The Lord Yahweh says this: Are you not the one of whom I spoke in former days by the hand of my servants, the prophets of Israel, who prophesied in their own time for years that I would bring you against them?
“‘Zvanzi naIshe Jehovha: Ko, hauziwe wandakataura nezvako pamazuva ekare navaranda vangu ivo vaprofita vaIsraeri here? Panguva iyoyo vakaprofita kwamakore kuti ini ndichakuuyisa kuzovarwisa.
18 So it will come to be in that day when Gog attacks the land of Israel—this is the Lord Yahweh's declaration—my wrath will mount up in my anger.
Izvi ndizvo zvichaitika pazuva iroro: Nyika yaIsraeri painorwiswa naGogi, hasha dzangu huru dzichamuka, ndizvo zvinotaura Ishe Jehovha.
19 In my zeal and in the fire of my anger, I declare that on that day there will be a great earthquake in the land of Israel.
Pakushingaira kwangu uye nomoto wehasha dzangu, ndinozivisa kuti panguva iyoyo pachava nokudengenyeka kukuru munyika yaIsraeri.
20 They will shake before me—the fish of the sea and the birds of the skies, the beasts of the fields, and all the creatures that crawl on the earth, and every person who is on the surface of the land. The mountains will be thrown down and the cliffs will fall, until every wall falls to the earth.
Hove dzegungwa, shiri dzedenga, mhuka dzesango, nezvose zvinokambaira panyika, navanhu vose vari pamusoro penyika vachadedera pamberi pangu. Makomo achapidiguka, mawere achaondomoka uye rusvingo rumwe norumwe ruchawira pasi.
21 I will summon a sword against him on all my mountains—this is the Lord Yahweh's declaration—each man's sword will be against his brother.
Ndichadana munondo kuzorwisa Gogi pamusoro pamakomo ose, ndizvo zvinotaura Ishe Jehovha. Munondo womunhu mumwe nomumwe uchabaya hama yake.
22 Then I will judge him by plague and blood; and overflowing rain and hailstones and burning sulfur I will rain down upon him and his troops and the many nations that are with him.
Ndicharanga nedenda nokudeuka kweropa; ndichanayisa mvura zhinji, nechimvuramabwe nesafuri inopfuta pamusoro pake napamusoro pamauto ake uye napamusoro pendudzi dzaanadzo.
23 For I will show my greatness and my holiness and I will make myself known in the eyes of the many nations, and they will know that I am Yahweh.'”
Nokudaro ndicharatidza ukuru hwangu noutsvene hwangu, uye ndichazvizivisa pamberi pendudzi zhinji. Ipapo vachaziva kuti ndini Jehovha.’
