< Ezekiel 35 >
1 And the word of the Lord was maad to me,
Ilizwi leNkosi lafika kimi futhi lisithi:
2 and he seide, Thou, sone of man, sette thi face ayens the hil of Seir; and thou schalt profesie to it, and thou schalt seie to it,
Ndodana yomuntu, misa ubuso bakho bumelene lentaba iSeyiri, uprofethe umelene layo,
3 The Lord God seith these thingis, Thou hil of Seir, lo! Y to thee; Y schal stretche forth myn hond on thee, and Y schal yyue thee desolat and forsakun.
uthi kuyo: Itsho njalo iNkosi uJehova: Khangela, ngimelane lawe, wena ntaba yeSeyiri, njalo ngizakwelula isandla sami simelene lawe, ngikwenze ube lunxiwa lencithakalo.
4 Y schal distrie thi citees, and thou schalt be forsakun; and thou schalt wite, that Y am the Lord.
Ngizakwenza imizi yakho ibe lunxiwa, wena-ke ube yincithakalo; njalo uzakwazi ukuthi ngiyiNkosi.
5 For thou were an enemye euerlastynge, and closidist togidere the sonis of Israel in to the hondis of swerd, in the tyme of her turment, in the tyme of the laste wickidnesse;
Ngoba waba lenzondo engapheliyo, wathululela abantwana bakoIsrayeli emandleni enkemba ngesikhathi sokuhlupheka kwabo, ngesikhathi sesiphambeko sokuphela;
6 therfor Y lyue, seith the Lord God, for Y schal yyue thee to blood, and blood schal pursue thee; and sithen thou hatidist blood, blood schal pursue thee.
ngakho, kuphila kwami, itsho iNkosi uJehova, isibili ngizakulungiselela igazi, legazi lizakuzingela; ngoba ungalizondanga igazi, igazi lizakuzingela.
7 And Y schal yyue the hil of Seir desolat and forsakun, and Y schal take awei fro it a goere and a comere ayen;
Njalo ngizakwenza intaba yeSeyiri ibe yincithakalo lonxiwa, ngiqume kiyo odlulayo lophendukayo.
8 and Y schal fille the hillis therof with the careyns of her slayn men. Men slayn by swerd schulen falle doun in thi litle hillis, and in thi valeys, and in thi strondis.
Ngigcwalise intaba zayo ngababuleweyo bayo; amaqaqa akho, lezihotsha zakho, layo yonke imifula yakho, ababuleweyo ngenkemba bazakuwa kukho.
9 Y schal yyue thee in to euerlastynge wildirnessis, and thi citees schulen not be enhabitid; and ye schulen wite, that Y am the Lord God.
Ngizakwenza ube ngamanxiwa aphakade, lemizi yakho kayiyikuhlalwa; khona uzakwazi ukuthi ngiyiNkosi.
10 For thou seidist, Twei folkis and twei londis schulen be myne, and Y schal welde tho bi eritage, whanne the Lord was there;
Ngoba uthi: Lezizizwe ezimbili lala amazwe amabili kuzakuba ngokwami, sidle ilifa lakho; lanxa iNkosi ibikhona lapho;
11 therfor Y lyue, seith the Lord God, for Y schal do bi thi wraththe, and bi thin enuye, which thou didist, hatinge hem, and Y schal be made knowun bi hem, whanne Y schal deme thee;
ngakho, kuphila kwami, itsho iNkosi uJehova, lami ngizakwenza ngokolaka lwakho lanjengokomhawu wakho owakusebenzisayo ngenzondo yakho umelene labo; ngizenze ngaziwe phakathi kwabo, lapho sengikwahlulele.
12 and thou schalt wite, that Y am the Lord. Y herde alle thi schenschipis, whiche thou spakist of the hillis of Israel, and seidist, The hillis of Israel ben forsakun, and ben youun to vs, for to deuoure.
Khona uzakwazi ukuthi mina Nkosi ngizwile zonke izithuko zakho owazikhuluma umelene lezintaba zakoIsrayeli usithi: Zichithekile, sizinikiwe zibe yikudla.
13 And ye han rise on me with youre mouth, and ye han deprauyd ayens me; Y herde youre wordis.
Ngokunjalo lizikhulisile limelene lami ngomlomo wenu, landisa amazwi enu limelene lami; mina ngizwile.
14 The Lord God seith these thingis, While al the lond is glad, Y schal turne thee in to wildernesse.
Itsho njalo iNkosi uJehova: Njengokwentokozo yelizwe lonke, ngizakwenza ube yincithakalo.
15 As thou haddist ioie on the eritage of the hous of Israel, for it was distried, so Y schal do to thee; the hil of Seir schal be distried, and al Ydumee; and thei schulen wite, that Y am the Lord.
Njengoba lathokoza ngelifa lendlu kaIsrayeli ngenxa yokuthi lichitheka, ngokunjalo ngizakwenza kuwe; uzakuba yincithakalo, wena ntaba yeSeyiri, leEdoma yonke, yona yonke. Khona bazakwazi ukuthi ngiyiNkosi.
