< Ezekiel 26 >

1 And it cometh to pass, in the eleventh year, in the first of the month, there hath been a word of Jehovah unto me, saying: 'Son of man,
Mwaka-inĩ wa ikũmi na ũmwe, mũthenya wa mbere wa mweri, kiugo kĩa Jehova nĩkĩanginyĩrĩire, ngĩĩrwo atĩrĩ:
2 Because that Tyre hath said of Jerusalem: Aha, she hath been broken, the doors of the peoples, She hath turned round unto me, I am filled — she hath been laid waste,
“Mũrũ wa mũndũ, tondũ Turo riugĩte atĩrĩ ũhoro wa Jerusalemu, ‘Aha! Kĩhingo gĩa gũtoonya kwa ndũrĩrĩ nĩkiunange, na niĩ ngahingũrĩrwo mĩrango yarĩo; rĩu tondũ nĩ kwanangĩtwo-rĩ, nĩngũgaacĩra,’
3 Therefore, thus said the Lord Jehovah: Lo, I [am] against thee, O Tyre, And have caused to come up against thee many nations, As the sea causeth its billows to come up.
nĩ ũndũ ũcio Mwathani Jehova oigĩte ũũ: Nĩngũgũũkĩrĩra wee Turo, na nĩngarehe ndũrĩrĩ nyingĩ igũũkĩrĩre, ta iria rĩgĩikia makũmbĩ marĩo na igũrũ.
4 And they have destroyed the walls of Tyre, And they have broken down her towers, And I have scraped her dust from her, And made her for a clear place of a rock.
Nĩmakananga thingo cia Turo, na mamomore mĩthiringo yarĩo ĩrĩa mĩraihu na igũrũ; nĩngate kagoto karĩo na ndĩgũtue rwaro rwa ihiga itheri.
5 A spreading place of nets she is in the midst of the sea, For I — I have spoken — an affirmation of the Lord Jehovah, And she hath been for a spoil to nations.
Kũu iria-inĩ gũgaatuĩka kũndũ gwa gũtambũrũkĩria nga cia gũtega thamaki, nĩgũkorwo ũhoro ũcio nĩ niĩ njarĩtie, ũguo nĩguo Mwathani Jehova ekuuga. Narĩo itũũra rĩu rĩgaatuĩka rĩa gũtahwo nĩ ndũrĩrĩ,
6 And her daughters who [are] in the field, by sword they are slain, And they have known that I [am] Jehovah,
nakuo kũndũ kwarĩo kũrĩa gũtũũragwo kũu bũrũri-thĩinĩ nĩgũkaniinwo na rũhiũ rwa njora. Hĩndĩ ĩyo nĩmakamenya atĩ niĩ nĩ niĩ Jehova.
7 For, thus said the Lord Jehovah: Lo, I am bringing in unto Tyre Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon, From the north — a king of kings, With horse, and with chariot, and with horsemen, Even an assembly, and a numerous people.
“Nĩgũkorwo Mwathani Jehova ekuuga ũũ: Kuuma mwena wa gathigathini nĩngarehe Nebukadinezaru, mũthamaki wa Babuloni, mũthamaki wa athamaki, okĩrĩre Turo arĩ na mbarathi, na ngaari cia ita, na ahaici a mbarathi, na mbũtũ nene ya ita.
8 Thy daughters in the field by sword he slayeth, And he hath made against thee a fort, And hath poured out against thee a mount, And hath raised against thee a buckler.
Nĩakananga kũndũ gwaku gwa gũtũũrwo kũu bũrũri-inĩ na rũhiũ rwa njora, na arute wĩra wa gũkũrigiicĩria, agũũkĩrĩre, aakithie ihumbu nginya thingo-inĩ ciaku, na ambararie ngo ciake agũũkĩrĩre.
9 And a battering-ram before him he placeth against thy walls, And thy towers he breaketh by his weapons.
Nĩakoonereria nditi ya mĩgogo amomore thingo ciaku, na amomore mĩthiringo yaku ĩrĩa mĩraihu na igũrũ na indo ciake cia mbaara.
10 From the abundance of his horses cover thee doth their dust, From the noise of horseman, and wheel, and rider, Shake do thy walls, in his coming in to thy gates, As the coming into a city broken-up.
Mbarathi ciake igaakorwo irĩ nyingĩ ũũ atĩ nĩigagũthika na rũkũngũ. Thingo ciaku nĩikainaina nĩ ũndũ wa inegene rĩa mbarathi cia mbaara, na makaari, na ngaari cia ita hĩndĩ ĩrĩa agaatoonyera ihingo-inĩ ciaku ta ũrĩa andũ matoonyaga itũũra inene rĩrĩa thingo imomoretwo.
11 With hoofs of his horses he treadeth all thine out-places, Thy people by sword he doth slay, And the pillars of thy strength to the earth come down.
Mahũngũ ma mbarathi ciake nĩmakaranga njĩra ciaku ciothe; nĩakooraga andũ aku na rũhiũ rwa njora, nacio itugĩ ciaku cia hinya nĩikaagũa thĩ.
12 And they have spoiled thy wealth, And they have plundered thy merchandise, And they have thrown down thy walls, And thy desirable houses they break down, And thy stones, and thy wood, and thy dust, In the midst of the waters they place.
Nĩmagagũtaha ũtonga waku na magũtunye indo ciaku cia wonjoria; nĩmakamomora thingo ciaku na matharie nyũmba ciaku iria njega, na maikie mahiga maku, na mbaũ, o na kagoto iria-inĩ.
13 And I have caused the noise of thy songs to cease, And the voice of thy harps is heard no more.
Nĩngakinyia inegene rĩa nyĩmbo ciaku mũthia, na mũgambo wa inanda ciaku cia mũgeeto ndũkaiguuo rĩngĩ.
14 And I have given thee up for a clear place of a rock, A spreading-place of nets thou art, Thou art not built up any more, For I, Jehovah, I have spoken, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah.
Nĩngatũma ũtuĩke rwaro rwa ihiga itheri, na nĩũgatuĩka handũ ha gũtambũrũkĩrio nga cia gũtega thamaki. Ndũgacooka gwakwo rĩngĩ, nĩ ũndũ niĩ Jehova nĩ niĩ njarĩtie ũhoro ũcio, ũguo nĩguo Mwathani Jehova ekuuga.
15 Thus said the Lord Jehovah to Tyre: Do not — from the noise of thy fall, In the groaning of the wounded, In the slaying of the slaughter in thy midst, The isles shake?
“Mwathani Jehova ekwĩra Turo atĩrĩ: Mabũrũri marĩa marĩ ndwere-inĩ cia iria githĩ matikainaina nĩ mũrurumo wa kũgũa gwaku, hĩndĩ ĩrĩa arĩa magurarĩtio magaacaaya, nayo njũragano yũraganwo thĩinĩ waku?
16 And come down from off their thrones have all princes of the sea, And they have turned aside their robes, And their embroidered garments strip off, Trembling they put on, on the earth they sit, And they have trembled every moment, And they have been astonished at thee,
Ningĩ anene othe arĩa marĩ ndwere-inĩ cia iria nĩmakehera itĩ-inĩ ciao cia ũnene, na marute nguo ciao iria ndaaya, na marute nguo ciao iria ngʼemie. Mahumbĩtwo kĩmako, magaikara thĩ makĩinainaga mahinda mothe, maguoyohetio nĩwe.
17 And have lifted up for thee a lamentation, And said to thee: How hast thou perished, That art inhabited from the seas, The praised city, that was strong in the sea, She and her inhabitants, Who put their terror on all her inhabitants!
Hĩndĩ ĩyo nĩmakoerera icakaya rĩgũkoniĩ, makwĩre atĩrĩ: “‘Kaĩ ũrĩ mwanange-ĩ, o wee itũũra rĩrĩ igweta, o wee watũũragwo nĩ andũ arĩa maathiiaga iria-inĩ-ĩ! Wee nĩwe warĩ na ũhoti kũu iria-inĩ, wee na atũũri aku; nĩwatũmaga arĩa othe maatũũraga kuo manyiitwo nĩ guoya.
18 Now they tremble, is it not the day of thy fall? Troubled have been the isles that [are] in the sea, at thine outgoing.
Rĩu-rĩ, mabũrũri marĩa marĩ ndwere-inĩ cia iria nĩmakainaina mũthenya wa kũgũa gwaku; icigĩrĩra cia iria-inĩ nĩikamakio nĩ kũmomoka gwaku.’
19 For thus said the Lord Jehovah: In my making thee a city wasted, Like cities that have not been inhabited, In bringing up against thee the deep, Then covered thee have the great waters.
“Mwathani Jehova ekuuga atĩrĩ: Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa ngaatũma ũtuĩke itũũra inene rĩtiganĩirio, ũhaane ta matũũra manene marĩa matatũũragwo, na hĩndĩ ĩrĩa ngaareka ũriku wa iria ũkũhumbĩre, naguo ũingĩ wa maaĩ marĩo ũgũthike-rĩ,
20 And I have caused thee to go down, With those going down to the pit, Unto the people of old, And I have caused thee to dwell in the land, The lower parts — in wastes of old, With those going down to the pit, So that thou art not inhabited, And I have given beauty in the land of the living.
hĩndĩ ĩyo nĩguo ngaagũikũrũkia hamwe na arĩa maikũrũkagio irima-inĩ harĩ andũ arĩa a tene. Nĩngatũma ũtũũre mũhuro wa thĩ, ta kũndũ kũrĩa gũtũũrĩte gũkirĩte ihooru o kuuma tene, hamwe na arĩa maikũrũkagio irima-inĩ, nawe ndũgacooka kana ũikare gũkũ bũrũri-inĩ wa arĩa marĩ muoyo.
21 Wastes I do make thee, and thou art not, And thou art sought, and art not found any more — to the age, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah!'
Nĩngatũma ũrĩkĩrĩrie na kĩmako kĩnene, nawe ndũgacooka kuonwo rĩngĩ. Ũgaacaragio na ndũgacooka kuoneka, ũguo nĩguo Mwathani Jehova ekuuga.”
