< Ezekiel 26 >

1 In the eleventh year, in the first of the month, Yahweh’s word came to me, saying,
Nʼụbọchị nke mbụ nʼọnwa, nʼafọ nke iri na otu, okwu nke Onyenwe anyị rutere m ntị sị,
2 “Son of man, because Tyre has said against Jerusalem, ‘Aha! She is broken! She who was the gateway of the peoples has been returned to me. I will be replenished, now that she is laid waste;’
“Nwa nke mmadụ, Taịa aṅụrịala ọṅụ nʼihi ọdịda Jerusalem. Ọ na-ekwukwa na-asị, ‘Ahaa, agbajiela obodo ahụ bụ ọnụ ụzọ e si eje mba dị iche iche. Ọnụ ụzọ ama ya niile egherekwala oghe nye m. Ugbu a, e mebirila ya, ihe ga-agara m nke ọma karịa.’
3 therefore the Lord Yahweh says, ‘Behold, I am against you, Tyre, and will cause many nations to come up against you, as the sea causes its waves to come up.
Nʼihi ya, ihe ndị a ka Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị na-ekwu: Lee, ana m eguzo imegide gị Taịa. Aga m emekwa ka ọtụtụ mba bilie bịakwasị gị dịka ebili mmiri nke oke osimiri.
4 They will destroy the walls of Tyre, and break down her towers. I will also scrape her dust from her, and make her a bare rock.
Ha ga-etida mgbidi Taịa niile, kwadakwa ụlọ elu ya niile. Aga m akọchapụ aja mgbidi ya dakpọrọ adakpọ mee ka ala ahụ ghọọ ala nkume nkume.
5 She will be a place for the spreading of nets in the middle of the sea; for I have spoken it,’ says the Lord Yahweh. ‘She will become plunder for the nations.
Ọ ga-aghọkwa ebe ndị ọkụ azụ na-agbasa ụgbụ ha nʼetiti oke osimiri. Nʼihi na mụ onwe m ekwuola ya. Otu a ka Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị kwupụtara. Ọ ga-aghọkwara mba niile dị iche iche ihe a kwatara nʼagha.
6 Her daughters who are in the field will be slain with the sword. Then they will know that I am Yahweh.’
Ma a ga-eji mma agha laa ụmụada ya bi nʼelu ala nʼiyi. Mgbe ahụ, ha ga-amata na mụ onwe m bụ Onyenwe anyị.”
7 “For the Lord Yahweh says: ‘Behold, I will bring on Tyre Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, king of kings, from the north, with horses, with chariots, with horsemen, and an army with many people.
“Nʼihi na otu a ka Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị kwuru: Aga m esite na mgbago ugwu kpọta Nebukadneza eze Babilọn, onye bụ eze ndị eze, ọ ga-achị ọtụtụ ndị agha na ụgbọala, na ndị na-agba ịnyịnya bilie imegide Taịa.
8 He will kill your daughters in the field with the sword. He will make forts against you, cast up a mound against you, and raise up the buckler against you.
Ọ ga-ebu ụzọ jiri mma agha bibie ndị gị bi nʼelu ala. Ọ ga-agbakwa obodo gị gburugburu, wulie mgbidi agha ya elu, imegide mgbidi obodo gị. Ọ ga-ewelikwa ọta agha ya elu.
9 He will set his battering engines against your walls, and with his axes he will break down your towers.
Ọ ga-echezikwa ihe agha e ji akwatu mgbidi nʼebe mgbidi gị dị, jiri ngwa agha ya kwada ụlọ elu gị niile.
10 By reason of the abundance of his horses, their dust will cover you. Your walls will shake at the noise of the horsemen, of the wagons, and of the chariots, when he enters into your gates, as men enter into a city which is broken open.
Ịnyịnya ya ga-adị ọtụtụ nke ga-eme ka ha jiri uzuzu kpuchie gị. Mgbidi gị ga-ama jijiji nʼihi oke ụzụ nke ịnyịnya agha ndị a, na ụgbọ agha, na wagọn ịnyịnya na-adọkpụ ga-eme, mgbe ha na-abata nʼọnụ ụzọ ama gị, dị ka mgbe ọtụtụ mmadụ na-abanye nʼime obodo e tidara mgbidi ya.
11 He will tread down all your streets with the hoofs of his horses. He will kill your people with the sword. The pillars of your strength will go down to the ground.
Ọ ga-eji ụkwụ ịnyịnya ya niile zọtọọ okporoụzọ gị niile, jirikwa mma agha gbuchapụ ndị gị niile. Ogidi niile nke ike gị ga-adaru ala.
12 They will make a plunder of your riches and make a prey of your merchandise. They will break down your walls and destroy your pleasant houses. They will lay your stones, your timber, and your dust in the middle of the waters.
Ha ga-akwara akụ gị niile, na ihe ahịa gị niile dịka ihe ha dọtara nʼagha. Ha ga-akwatu mgbidi gị niile, na ụlọ ọma gị niile, kpokọtaa osisi gị niile, na nkume niile, na ngwongwo niile nʼabaghị uru wụnye ha nʼime osimiri.
13 I will cause the noise of your songs to cease. The sound of your harps won’t be heard any more.
Aga m emekwa ka ụzụ nke abụ gị niile kwụsị. A gaghị anụkwa ụda ụbọ akwara gị ọzọ.
14 I will make you a bare rock. You will be a place for the spreading of nets. You will be built no more; for I Yahweh have spoken it,’ says the Lord Yahweh.
Aga m emekwa ka ala gị ghọọ ala nkume nkume, nke ihe na-adịghị nʼime ya. Ị ga-abụkwa ebe ndị ọkụ azụ ga na-agbasa ụgbụ ha. Ọ dịghị onye ga-ewuzi gị ọzọ. Mụ onwe m bụ Onyenwe anyị ekwuola ya. Otu a ka Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị kwubiri.
15 “The Lord Yahweh says to Tyre: ‘Won’t the islands shake at the sound of your fall, when the wounded groan, when the slaughter is made within you?
“Otu a ka Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị na-agwa Taịa, Ọ bụ na agaghị anụ mkpọtụ ọdịda gị na mba ndị ahụ niile dị nʼọnụ mmiri osimiri, mgbe ndị e merụrụ ahụ ga na-asụ ude nʼoge a na-egbu ndị bi nʼime gị?
16 Then all the princes of the sea will come down from their thrones, and lay aside their robes, and strip off their embroidered garments. They will clothe themselves with trembling. They will sit on the ground, and will tremble every moment, and be astonished at you.
Mgbe ahụ, ndị ndu nʼobodo ndị ahụ niile dị nʼọnụ mmiri osimiri ga-esi nʼocheeze ha rịdata. Ha ga-eyipụ uwe mwụda ha, yipụsịakwa uwe ha niile a kpara nke ọma. Ha ga-anọdụ ọdụ nʼala na-ama jijiji site nʼoke egwu nʼihi ihe ha hụrụ dakwasịrị gị.
17 They will take up a lamentation over you, and tell you, “How you are destroyed, who were inhabited by seafaring men, the renowned city, who was strong in the sea, she and her inhabitants, who caused their terror to be on all who lived there!”
Ha ga-ebulikwa abụ akwa banyere gị, sị gị, “‘Lee ka i si laa nʼiyi, gị obodo a maara aha ya, nke ndị na-ejegharị nʼosimiri bi nʼime ya. Na mbụ, ị bụ obodo nke ịdị ike ya pụtara ihe nʼosimiri niile, gị na ndị bi nʼime gị. Ị na-emenyekwa ndị bi nʼime ya egwu.
18 Now the islands will tremble in the day of your fall. Yes, the islands that are in the sea will be dismayed at your departure.’
Ugbu a, lee na ala niile dị nʼọnụ mmiri nke osimiri na-ama jijiji nʼihi ọdịda gị. Ọ bụladị agwa etiti niile ka ụjọ juru obi nʼihi nkwatu a kwatụrụ gị.’
19 “For the Lord Yahweh says: ‘When I make you a desolate city, like the cities that are not inhabited, when I bring up the deep on you, and the great waters cover you,
“Ihe a ka Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị kwuru: Mgbe m mere ka ị ghọọ obodo tọgbọrọ nʼefu, dịka obodo niile nke mmadụ na-ebighị, mgbe m mekwara ka ogbu mmiri nke oke osimiri bịakwasị gị, mgbe ọtụtụ mmiri ya kpuchiri gị,
20 then I will bring you down with those who descend into the pit, to the people of old time, and will make you dwell in the lower parts of the earth, in the places that are desolate of old, with those who go down to the pit, that you be not inhabited; and I will set glory in the land of the living.
mgbe ahụ ka m ga-eme ka ị rịdaruo nʼala mmụọ, gị na ndị na-arịda nʼolulu, ka i jekwuru ndị mgbe ochie. Aga m eme ka ebe obibi gị bụrụ nʼokpuru ime ime ala, ka ị dịrị ka obodo ndị ochie ahụ e tikpọrọ etikpọ. Gị na ndị ahụ na-arịdaru nʼolulu. Ị gaghị esitekwa nʼebe ahụ lọghachi ịbịa isoro ndị dị ndụ birikwa.
21 I will make you a terror, and you will no more have any being. Though you are sought for, yet you will never be found again,’ says the Lord Yahweh.”
Aga m eme ka ọgwụgwụ gị bụrụ ihe a ga-atụ egwu. Ị gaghị adịkwa. A ga-achọ gị, ma agaghị achọta gị. Otu a ka Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị kwubiri ya.”
