Hezekiel 25

1 Yehowa ƒe nya va nam be,

The worde of the Lord came againe vnto me, saying,

2 “Ame vi, trɔ mo ɖe Amonitɔwo ŋu, eye nàgblɔ nya ɖi ɖe wo ŋu.

Sonne of man, set thy face against the Ammonites, and prophecie against them,

3 Gblɔ na wo be, ‘Mise Aƒetɔ Yehowa ƒe nya. Nya si Aƒetɔ Yehowa gblɔe nye, esi miegblɔ be, “Ahã” ɖe nye kɔkɔeƒe la ŋu le esime wodo gui, ɖe Israelnyigba ŋu esime wòzu gbegbe, eye ɖe Yuda ŋu esime woɖe aboyo eƒe amewo ta la,

And say vnto the Ammonites, Heare the word of the Lord God, Thus saith the Lord God, Because thou saydest, Ha, ha, against my Sanctuarie, when it was polluted, and against the land of Israel, when it was desolate, and against the house of Iudah, when they went into captiuitie,

4 matsɔ mi ade asi na Ɣedzeƒenyigbadzitɔwo, miazu wo tɔ. Woatso nɔƒe, eye woatu woƒe agbadɔwo ɖe mia dome; woaɖu miaƒe kutsetsewo, eye woano miaƒe notsi.

Beholde, therefore I will deliuer thee to the men of the East for a possession, and they shall set their palaces in thee, and make their dwellings in thee: they shall eate thy fruite, and they shall drinke thy milke.

5 Matrɔ Raba wòazu gbeɖuƒe na kposɔwo, eye Amoninyigba azu gbɔɖemeƒe na alẽwo. Ekema mianya be, nyee nye Yehowa.

And I will make Rabbah a dwelling place for camels, and the Ammonites a sheepecote, and ye shall knowe that I am the Lord.

6 Elabena alea Aƒetɔ Yehowa gblɔ: esi mieƒo asikpe, tu afɔ anyi le dzidzɔkpɔkpɔ me kple ta me vɔ̃ ɖoɖo le miaƒe dzi me ɖe Israelnyigba ŋu ta la,

For thus saith the Lord God, Because thou hast clapped the hands, and stamped with the feete, and reioyced in heart with all thy despite against the land of Israel,

7 mado nye asi ɖa ɖe mia ŋu, eye matsɔ mi ana dukɔwo abe nuhaha ene. Maɖe mi ɖa le dukɔwo dome, eye matsrɔ̃ mi le anyigbawo dzi. Matsrɔ̃ mi, eye mianya be nyee nye Yehowa.’”

Beholde, therefore I will stretche out mine hand vpon thee, and will deliuer thee to be spoyled of the heathen, and I will roote thee out from the people, and I will cause thee to be destroyed out of the countreys, and I will destroy thee, and thou shalt know that I am the Lord.

8 “Ale Aƒetɔ Yehowa gblɔe nye si, ‘Esi Moabtɔwo kple Seirtɔwo gblɔ be, “Kpɔ ɖa, Yuda ƒe aƒe zu abe dukɔ bubuwo ene” ta la,

Thus saith the Lord God, Because that Moab and Seir doe say, Beholde, the house of Iudah is like vnto all the heathen,

9 maɖe Moab ƒe abɔta ɖe go, madze egɔme tso liƒodziduwo, Bet Yesimot, Baal Meon kple Kiriataim, du siwo nye anyigba ma ƒe atsyɔ̃ la dzi.

Therefore, beholde, I will open the side of Moab, euen of the cities of his cities, I say, in his frontiers with the pleasant countrey, Beth-ieshimoth, Baal-meon, and Karia-thaim.

10 Matsɔ Moabtɔwo kple Amonitɔ na ɣedzeƒetɔwo woazu wo tɔ, ale be womagaɖo ŋku Amonitɔwo dzi le dukɔwo dome o,

I will call the men of the East against the Ammonites, and will giue them in possession, so that the Ammonites shall no more be remembred among the nations,

11 eye mahe to na Moabtɔwo vevie. Ekema woanya be nyee nye Yehowa.’”

And I will execute iudgements vpon Moab, and they shall knowe that I am the Lord.

12 Ale Aƒetɔ Yehowa gblɔe nye esi: “Esi Edomtɔwo bia hlɔ̃ Yuda ƒe aƒe eye wodze agɔ vevie to nu sia wɔwɔ me ta la,

Thus sayth the Lord God, Because that Edom hath done euill by taking vengeance vpon the house of Iudah, and hath committed great offence, and reuenged himselfe vpon them,

13 ale Aƒetɔ Yehowa gblɔe nye si, ‘Mado nye asi ɖa ɖe Edom ŋu, eye mawu eƒe amewo kple woƒe lãwo. Mana wòazu gbegbe, eye eƒe amewo atsi yi nu tso Teman va se ɖe Dedan.

Therefore thus saith the Lord God, I will also stretch out mine hand vpon Edom, and destroy man and beast out of it, and I will make it desolate from Teman, and they of Dedan shall fall by the sworde.

14 Mabia hlɔ̃ Edom to nye amewo, Israel ƒe asi dzi, eye woatu nu kple Edom le nye dziku kple dɔmedzoe helĩhelĩ nu. Woadze si nye hlɔ̃biabia.’ Aƒetɔ Yehowae gblɔe.”

And I will execute my vengeance vpon Edom by the hand of my people Israel, and they shall doe in Edom according to mine anger, and according to mine indignation, and they shall know my vengeance, sayth the Lord God.

15 “Ale Aƒetɔ Yehowa gblɔe nye esi: ‘Esi Filistitɔwo wɔ nu le hlɔ̃biabia me, eye wobia hlɔ̃ kple ta me vɔ̃ ɖoɖo si le dzi me na wo kple fuléle si nɔ wo me tso blema ke, be yewoatsrɔ̃ Yuda ta la,

Thus sayth the Lord God, Because the Philistims haue executed vengeance, and reuenged themselues with a despitefull heart, to destroy it for the olde hatred,

16 ale Aƒetɔ Yehowa gblɔe nye esi: Mele nye asi ɖo ge ɖa ɖe Filistitɔwo ŋu, mawu Keretitɔwo, eye matsrɔ̃ ame siwo susɔ ɖe atsiaƒu la nu.

Therefore thus sayth the Lord God, Behold, I will stretche out mine hand vpon the Philistims, and I will cut off the Cherethims, and destroy the remnant of the sea coast.

17 Mabia hlɔ̃ wo vevie, eye mahe to na wo le nye dɔmedzoe helĩhelĩ me. Ekema woanya be nyee nye Yehowa, ne mebia hlɔ̃ wo.’”

And I will execute great vengeance vpon them with rebukes of mine indignation, and they shall knowe that I am the Lord, when I shall lay my vengeance vpon them.
