< Ezekiel 31 >
1 And it was don in the enleuenthe yeer, in the thridde moneth, in the firste dai of the monethe, the word of the Lord was maad to me,
Pa tsiku loyamba la mwezi wachitatu, chaka cha khumi ndi chimodzi, Yehova anandiyankhula kuti:
2 and he seide, Thou, sone of man, seie to Farao, kyng of Egipt, and to his puple, To whom art thou maad lijk in thi greetnesse?
“Iwe mwana wa munthu, unene kwa Farao mfumu ya Igupto ndi gulu lake lankhondo. Awawuze kuti, “‘Kodi mu ukulu wanu ndani angafanane ndi inu?
3 Lo! Assur as a cedre in Liban, fair in braunchis, and ful of boowis, and hiy bi hiynesse; and his heiyte was reisid among thicke bowis.
Taonani, ndidzakufanizirani ndi mtengo wa mkungudza wa ku Lebanoni, wa nthambi zokongola zochititsa mthunzi mʼnkhalango. Unali wautali, msonga zake zooneka pamwamba pa nkhalango.
4 Watris nurschiden hym, the depthe of watris enhaunside him; hise floodis fletiden out in the cumpas of hise rootis, and he sente out hise strondis to alle the trees of the cuntrei.
Madzi ndiwo ankawukulitsa mkungudzawo, akasupe ozama ankawutalikitsa. Mitsinje yake inkayenda mozungulira malo amene unaliwo ndipo ngalande zake zinkafika ku mitengo yonse ya mʼmunda.
5 Therfor his hiynesse was enhaunsid ouer alle trees of the cuntrei, and hise trees weren multiplied, and hise braunchis weren reisid, for many watris.
Choncho unatalika kwambiri kupambana mitengo yonse ya mʼmunda. Nthambi zake zinachuluka ndi kutalika kwambiri, chifukwa inkalandira madzi ambiri.
6 And whanne he hadde stretchid forth his schadewe, alle the volatils of the eir maden nestis in hise braunchis; and alle the beestis of forestis gendriden vndur hise boowis, and the cumpeny of ful many folkis dwellide vndur the schadewynge place of hym.
Mbalame zonse zamlengalenga zinkamanga zisa zake mʼnthambi za mtengowo. Nyama zakuthengo zonse zinkaswanirana mʼmunsi mwa nthambi zake. Mitundu yotchuka ya anthu inkakhala mu mthunzi wake.
7 And he was ful fair in his greetnesse, and in alargyng of hise trees; for the roote of hym was bisidis many watris.
Unali wokongola kwambiri, wa nthambi zake zotambalala, chifukwa mizu yake inazama pansi kumene kunali madzi ochuluka.
8 Cedris in the paradijs of God weren not hiyere than he; fir trees atteyneden not euenli to the hiynesse of hym, and plane trees weren not euene with the boowis of hym. Ech tree of paradijs of God was not maad lic hym and his fairnesse.
Mʼmunda wa Mulungu munalibe mkungudza wofanana nawo, kapena mitengo ya payini ya nthambi zofanafana ndi nthambi zake. Munalibenso mtengo wa mkuyu nthambi zofanafana ndi zake. Mʼmunda wa Mulungu munalibe mtengo wina uliwonse wofanana ndi iwo kukongola kwake.
9 For Y made hym fair, and with many and thicke boowis; and alle the trees of lust, that weren in the paradijs of God, hadden enuye to hym.
Ine ndinawupanga wokongola wa nthambi zochuluka. Mitengo yonse ya mu Edeni, mʼmunda wa Mulungu inawuchitira nsanje.
10 Therfor the Lord God seith these thingis, For that that he was reisid in hiynesse, and he yaf his hyynesse greene and thicke, and his herte was reisid in his hiynesse;
“‘Nʼchifukwa chake Ine Ambuye Yehova ndikuti: Chifukwa kuti mtengowo unatalika kwambiri, unatulutsa songa zake mpaka ku thambo, ndipo unadzikweza chifukwa cha msinkhu wake,
11 now Y haue youe hym in to the hondis of the strongeste man of hethene men. And he doynge schal do to that Assur; aftir the vnfeithfulnesse of hym Y castide hym out.
ndinawupereka mʼdzanja la mfumu ya mitundu ya anthu kuti awulange molingana ndi kuyipa kwake.
12 And aliens, and the moost cruel men of naciouns, schulen kitte hym doun, and schulen caste hym forth on hillis. And hise braunchis schulen falle doun in alle grete valeis, and hise trees schulen be brokun in alle roochis of stoon of erthe. And alle the puplis of erthe schulen go awei fro his schadewing place, and schulen forsake hym.
Anthu ankhanza kwambiri amitundu ya anthu achilendo adzawudula ndi kuwusiya. Nthambi zake zidzagwera pa mapiri ndi mu zigwa zonse. Nthambi zake zidzathyokera mʼmitsinje ya mʼdzikomo. Motero mitundu yonse ya anthu a dziko lapansi amene ankasangalala mu mthunzi wake idzawusiya.
13 Alle volatils of the eir dwelliden in the fallyng of hym, and alle beestis of the cuntrei weren in the braunchis of hym.
Mbalame zonse zamlengalenga zidzakhala pa mtengo wakugwawo, ndipo nyama zakuthengo zonse zidzakhala pa nthambi zake.
14 Wherfor alle the trees of watris schulen not be reisid in hir hiynesse, nether schulen sette hir hiynesse among places ful of woode, and ful of boowis, and alle trees that ben moistid of watris schulen not stonde in the hiynesse of tho. For alle thei ben youun in to deth, to the ferthest lond in the myddis of the sones of men, to hem that goon doun in to the lake.
Zidzakutero kuti pasakhalenso mitengo inanso ya mʼmbali mwa madzi yotalika kwambiri, imene idzatalike kwambiri ndi songa zake kufika mpaka ku mitambo. Komanso kuti pasadzakhalenso mitengo yolandira bwino madzi, imene idzatalika motero. Paja yonseyo kutha kwake ndi kufa, kupita ku dziko lapansi kukhala ndi anthu akufa amene analowa mʼmanda kale.
15 The Lord God seith these thingis, In the dai whanne he yede doun to hellis, Y brouyte yn mourenyng; Y hilide hym with depthe of watris, and I forbede his flodis, and Y refreynede many watris. The Liban was sori on him, and alle the trees of the feeld (Sheol )
“‘Ine Ambuye Yehova ndikuti: Pa nthawi imene mkungudzawo unatsikira ku manda, ndinawuza nyanja kuti iwulire maliro pakuwuphimba. Ndinawumitsa mitsinje ndipo madzi ambiri anaphwa. Ndinabweretsa mdima pa Lebanoni chifukwa cha mtengowo ndipo mitengo yonse ya mʼdzikomo inawuma. (Sheol )
16 weren shakun of the soun of his falling. I mouide togidere hethene men, whanne Y ledde hym doun to helle, with hem that yeden doun in to the lake. And alle trees of likyng, noble trees, and ful cleere in the Liban, alle that weren moistid with watris, weren coumfortid in the loweste lond. (Sheol )
Mitundu ya anthu inagwedezeka pakumva mkokomo wa kugwa kwake, pamene ndinawutsitsira ku manda pamodzi ndi iwo amene anafa. Pamenepo ku dziko la akufa mitengo yonse ya ku Edeni pamodzi ndi ya ku Lebanoni yosankhidwa bwino inasangalatsidwa chifukwa cha zimenezi. (Sheol )
17 For whi also thei schulen go doun with hym to helle, to slayn men with swerd; and the arm of ech man schal sitte vndur the schadewyng place of hym, in the myddis of naciouns. (Sheol )
Amene ankakhala mu mthunzi wake, amene ankayanjana nawo, iwonso anapita nawo pamodzi ku manda, kukakhala pamodzi ndi amene anaphedwa ndi lupanga pakati pa mitundu ya anthu. (Sheol )
18 To whom art thou licned, thou noble and hiy among the trees of likyng? Lo! thou art led doun with the trees of likyng to the fertheste lond. In the myddis of vncircumcidid men thou schalt slepe, with hem that ben slayn bi swerd. Thilke is Farao, and al the multitude of hym, seith the Lord God.
“‘Ndi mitengo iti ya mu Edeni imene ingafanane ndi kukongola kwako ndi ulemerero wako? Komabe iwenso, udzatsikira ku dziko la anthu akufa pamodzi ndi mitengo ya mu Edeni. Udzagona pamodzi ndi anthu osachita mdulidwe, anthu amene anaphedwa pa nkhondo. “‘Mtengowo ndi Farao ndi gulu lake lankhondo, akutero Ambuye Yehova.’”
