Hezekiel 17
1 Yehowa ƒe nya va nam be,
Yehova anayankhula nane kuti,
2 “Ame vi, to adzo, eye nàgblɔ lododo aɖe na Israel ƒe aƒe la.
“Iwe mwana wa munthu, aphere mwambi anthu a Israeli ndi kuwawuza fanizo.
3 Gblɔ na wo be, ‘Nya si Aƒetɔ Yehowa gblɔe nye esi. Hɔ̃ lolo aɖe si ŋu aʋala sesẽ siwo ŋu fu didiwo le, eye wòto fu amadede vovovowo la, va Lebanon. Esi wòdze ɖe sedati aɖe tame la,
Uwawuze kuti Ambuye Yehova akuti, chiwombankhanga chachikulu, cha mapiko amphamvu, nthenga zitalizitali zamathothomathotho chinabwera ku Lebanoni. Chinagwira nthambi ya pamwamba pa mtengo wa mkungudza.
4 eŋe eƒe ɖɔme hetsɔ yi asitsalawo ƒe anyigba dzi, eye wòdoe ɖe asitsalawo ƒe du gã aɖe me.
Chinabudula msonga yeniyeni ya nthambiyo nʼkupita nayo ku dziko lamalonda ndipo anakayika mu mzinda wa anthu amalonda.
5 “‘Etsɔ miaƒe anyigba ƒe ku aɖe, eye wòdoe ɖe anyigba nyui aɖe dzi. Edoe abe amuti ene ɖe afi si tsi sɔ gbɔ ɖo.
“‘Kenaka chinatenga mbewu ina ya mʼdziko ndi kukayidzala ku malo a chonde kumene kunali madzi ambiri. Anayidzala ngati mmene amadzalira mtengo wa msondozi.
6 Ati la dze, eye wòzu wainti kpehe aɖe si ƒe alɔwo vu. Eƒe alɔwo trɔ ɖo ɖe egbɔ, ke eƒe kewo ya nɔ ete. Ale wòzu wainti toalɔwo, eye aŋugbawo vu ɖe eŋu.
Ndipo inaphuka nisanduka mtengo wa mpesa wotambalala chamʼmunsi. Nthambi zake zinaloza mmwamba kumene kunali chiwombankhangacho, koma mizu yake inalowa pansi. Kotero unakhala mtengo wamphesa ndipo unasanduka wa nthambi ndiponso wa masamba ambiri.
7 “‘Ke hɔ̃ gã bubu aɖe li, si ŋu aʋala sesẽ nɔ, eye wòto fu kpoyo. Wainka la trɔ eƒe kewo ɖo ɖe egbɔ tso afi si wodoe ɖo, eye wòkeke eƒe aʋalawo hena tsii.
“‘Koma panali chiwombankhanga chinanso chachikulu, cha mapiko amphamvu ndi cha nthenga zambiri. Tsopano mtengo wamphesa uja unakhotetsera mizu yake kwa chiwombankhangacho kuchokera pa malo amene unadzalidwa ndipo unatambalitsa nthambi zake kwa chiwombankhangacho kufuna kuthiridwa madzi.
8 Wodoe ɖe anyigba nyui aɖe si dzi tsi bɔ ɖo, ale be wòato alɔ, atse ku, eye wòazu wainti nyui aɖe.’
Koma mtengowo unadzalidwa kale pa nthaka yabwino mʼmbali mwa madzi kuti ukhale ndi nthambi zambiri, ubereke zipatso ndi kukhala wokongola.’
9 “Gblɔ na wo be, Ale Aƒetɔ Yehowa gblɔe nye esi: ‘Ɖe wòava eme nenema? Ɖe womahoe, eye woagbe eƒe kutsetsewo, ale be wòaku oa? Eƒe alɔ yeyewo katã aku. Menye abɔ sesẽ aɖe alo ame geɖewoe ahoe kple ke o.
“Ukawawuze Aisraeli kuti, ‘Ambuye Wamphamvuzonse akuti: Kodi udzakula bwino? Kodi chiwombankhanga chija sichidzawuzula mizu ndi kubudula nthambi zake kuti ufote? Masamba ake onse anthete adzafota. Sipadzafunika dzanja lamphamvu kapena anthu ambiri kuti awuzule.
10 Ne woahoe ado gɔ̃ hã ɖe, adzea? Ɖe maku keŋkeŋ ne ɣedzeƒeya ƒo lɔe oa? Ɖe maku le afi si wòtsi le oa?’”
Ngakhale utawokedwa pena, kodi udzaphuka? Kodi sudzafoteratu mphepo ya kummawa ikadzawomba, kufotera pa malo pamene anawuwokerapo?’”
11 Eye Yehowa ƒe nya va nam be,
Kenaka Yehova anandiyankhula nati:
12 “Gblɔ na ƒome dzeaglã la be, ‘Ɖe miese nu siawo gɔme oa?’ Gblɔ na wo be, ‘Babilonia fia yi Yerusalem, eye wòkplɔ eƒe fia kple bubumewo yi Babilonia.
“Tawafunsa anthu owukirawa kuti, ‘kodi mukudziwa tanthauzo la zinthu zimenezi?’ Uwafotokozere kuti, ‘Mfumu ya Babuloni inapita ku Yerusalemu ndikukatengako mfumu ndi anthu ake otchuka ndi kubwera nawo ku Babuloni.
13 Elé fiaƒomea me tɔ aɖe, wɔ nubabla kplii, eye wòka atam nɛ. Ekplɔ anyigba la ƒe ame ŋkutawo dzoe,
Ndipo anatenga mmodzi wa banja laufumu ndi kuchita naye mgwirizano, ndipo anamulumbiritsa kuti akhale womvera. Inatenganso akulu onse a mʼdzikomo
14 ale be wòate fiaɖuƒe la ɖe to, magate ŋu afɔ o, eye wòatsi agbe ne ewɔ nubabla la dzi ko.
kuti ufumu wa dzikolo utsitsidwe, usadzaphukenso, koma kuti ukhalepobe posunga pangano limene unachita.
15 Ke fia la dze aglã ɖe eŋu esi wòɖo eƒe amewo ɖe Egipte be woaxɔ sɔwo kple aʋakɔ gã aɖe vɛ. Adze edzi nɛa? Ɖe ame si wɔ nu sia tɔgbi la ate ŋu asia? Ɖe wòatu nubabla la, gake ate ŋu asia?’
Koma mfumu inawukira mfumu ya ku Babuloni potumiza nthumwi ku dziko la Igupto kukatenga akavalo ndi gulu lalikulu la nkhondo. Kodi mfumu yotereyi ingapambane? Kodi wochita zinthu zoterezi angapulumuke? Kodi angaphwanye mgwirizano ndi kupulumuka?
16 “Aƒetɔ Yehowa gblɔ be, ‘Zi ale si mele agbe la, aku ɖe Babilonia, ɖe fia si ɖoe zi dzi la ƒe anyigba dzi, ame si ƒe atam wòdo vloe kple ame si ƒe nubabla wòtu.
“‘Ndithu pali Ine wamoyo, akutero Ambuye Yehova, mfumuyo idzafera ku Babuloni, mʼdziko la mfumu imene inayika pa mpando waufumu. Inapeputsa lumbiro lake nʼkuphwanya pangano limene inachita ndi mfumu inayo.
17 Farao kple eƒe aʋakɔ triakɔ la kple eƒe ameha gã mana kpekpeɖeŋu aɖeke le aʋa me ne woƒo kpo ɖe eŋu, eye wotu xɔ tsralawo be woawu ame geɖewo o.
Farao ndi gulu lake lankhondo lamphamvu sadzatha kumuthandiza pa nkhondo, pamene mfumu ya Babuloni idzapanga mitumbira ya nkhondo ndi nsanja za nkhondo kuti iwononge miyoyo yambiri.
18 Edo vlo atam la to nubabla la tutu me. Esi wòlɔ̃ ɖe nubabla la dzi hafi wɔ nu siawo katã ta la, mate ŋu asi o.’
Mfumu ya ku Yuda inanyoza lumbiro lake pophwanya pangano. Inalonjeza komabe sinatsatire malonjezo ake. Choncho sidzapulumuka.
19 “Eya ta ale Aƒetɔ Yehowa gblɔe nye esi, ‘Zi ale si mele agbe la, mana nye atam si wòdo vloe kple nye nubabla si wòtu la nava eƒe ta dzi.
“‘Nʼchifukwa chake Ine Ambuye Yehova ndikuti: Ndithu pali Ine wamoyo, Ine ndidzalanga mfumu imeneyi chifukwa inanyoza lumbiro langa, ndi kuphwanya pangano langa.
20 Makeke nye ɖɔ nɛ, eye nye mɔ aɖee. Makplɔe ayi Babilonia, eye mabu fɔe le afi ma, elabena meto nyateƒe nam o.
Ndidzayitchera ukonde ndipo idzakodwa mu msampha wanga. Ndidzapita nayo ku Babuloni ndi kuyilanga kumeneko chifukwa inali yosakhulupirika kwa Ine.
21 Eƒe aʋawɔla siwo le sisim la katã atsi yi nu, eye eƒe agbetsilawo akaka ɖe yawo katã nu, ekema mianya be nye Yehowae gblɔe.’
Asilikali ake onse amene akuthawa adzaphedwa ndi lupanga, ndipo opulumuka adzabalalitsidwa ku mbali zonse. Ndipo iwo adzadziwa kuti Ine Yehova ndayankhula.
22 “Ale Aƒetɔ Yehowa gblɔe nye esi. ‘Nye ŋutɔ maŋe sedati aɖe ƒe ɖɔme tso etame ke, eye madoe. Maŋe eƒe ɖɔme ado, eye madoe ɖe to kɔkɔ aɖe dzi.
“‘Ambuye Yehova akuti: Ine mwini ndidzatenga nthambi pamwamba penipeni pa mkungudza ndi kuyidzala; ndidzathyola nthambi yanthete kuchokera pa nthambi zapamwamba penipeni ndi kuyidzala pamwamba pa phiri lalitali.
23 Israel ƒe to kɔkɔwo dzie madoe ɖo; aɖe alɔwo, atse ku, eye wòazu sedati nyui aɖe. Xevi ɖe sia ɖe ƒomevi awɔ atɔ ɖe eme. Woakpɔ sitsoƒe le eƒe alɔwo ƒe vɔvɔli te.
Ndidzayidzaladi pa phiri lalitali la Israeli. Idzaphuka nthambi ndi kubereka zipatso. Choncho idzasanduka mkungudza wamphamvu. Mbalame za mtundu uliwonse zidzamanga zisa zawo mʼmenemo; zidzapeza malo okhala mu mthunzi wa nthambi zake.
24 Gbemetiwo katã anya be nye Yehowae bɔbɔ ati kɔkɔ la ɖe anyi, eye mena ati kpui la tsi hekɔ. Mena ati mumu la ku, eye ati kuku la dze.’ “Nye Aƒetɔ Yehowae ƒo nu, eye mawɔe ade goe.”
Mitengo yonse yakuthengo idzadziwa kuti Ine ndine Yehova amene ndimafupikitsa mitengo yayitali ndi kutalikitsa mitengo yayifupi. Ndimawumitsa mitengo yabiriwiri ndi kubiriwitsa mitengo yowuma. “‘Ine Yehova ndayankhula zimenezi, ndipo ndidzazichita.’”
