Hezekiel 29
1 Le ƒe ewolia ƒe ɣleti ewolia me, le ŋkeke wuievelia gbe la, Yehowa ƒe nya va nam be,
In the tenthe yeer, in the tweluethe monethe, in the firste dai of the monethe, the word of the Lord was maad to me, and he seide,
2 “Ame vi, trɔ mo ɖe Farao, Egipte fia ŋu, eye nàgblɔ nya ɖi ɖe eya kple Egipte katã ŋu.
Thou, sone of man, sette thi face ayens Farao, king of Egipt; and thou schalt profesie of hym, and of al Egipt.
3 Gblɔ nɛ be, ‘Alea Aƒetɔ Yehowa gblɔe nye esi: “‘Metso ɖe ŋuwò, Farao, Egipte fia, wò lã gã wɔadã le wò tɔsisiwo me. Egblɔna be, “Nil tɔsisi la nye tɔnye. Nyee wɔe na ɖokuinye.”
Speke thou, and thou schalt seie, The Lord God seith these thingis, Lo! Y to thee, thou Farao, kyng of Egipt, thou grete dragoun, that liggist in the myddis of thi floodis, and seist, The flood is myn, and Y made mysilf.
4 Matsɔ ƒu aƒo ɖe wò glã me, eye mana wò tɔwo me lãwo nalé ɖe wò tsro ŋu, mahe wò ado goe le wò tɔsisiwo me kple tɔmelã siwo katã lé ɖe wò tsrokpa ŋuti.
And Y schal sette a bridil in thi chekis, and Y schal glue the fischis of thi floodis to thi scalis; and Y schal drawe thee out of the myddis of thi floodis, and alle thi fischis schulen cleue to thi scalis.
5 Magblẽ wò ɖe gbegbe, wò kple wò tɔwo me lãwo katã; àdze gbadzaƒe dzi, womafɔ wò alo atsɔ wò o. Mawɔ wò nàzu nuɖuɖu na gbemelãwo kple dziƒoxeviwo.
And Y schal caste thee forth in to desert, and alle the fischis of thi flood; on the face of erthe thou schalt falle doun, thou schalt not be gaderid, nethir schalt be gaderid togidere; to the beestis of erthe, and to the volatilis of the eir Y yaf thee to be deuourid.
6 Ekema ame siwo katã le Egipte la anya be, nyee nye Yehowa. “‘Ènye aƒlati na Israel ƒe aƒe la.
And alle the dwelleris of Egipt schulen knowe, that Y am the Lord. For that that thou were a staf of rehed to the hous of Israel, whanne thei token thee with hond,
7 Esi wolé wò kple asi la, èŋe woƒe abɔta, eye esi woziɔ ɖe ŋuwò la, èŋee heƒo ɖe woƒe dzime.
and thou were brokun, and to-rentist ech schuldre of hem, and whanne thei restiden on thee, thou were maad lesse, and thou hast discoumfortid alle the reynes of hem;
8 “‘Eya ta ale Aƒetɔ Yehowa gblɔe nye esi: “Mahe yi aɖe ɖe ŋuwò, wòawu wò amewo kple woƒe lãwo.
therfor the Lord God seith these thingis, Lo! Y schal bringe a swerd on thee, and Y schal sle of thee man and beeste;
9 Egipte azu aƒedo kple gbegbe. Ekema woanya be nyee nye Yehowa.” “‘Esi nègblɔ be, “Nil tɔsisi la nye tɔnye, nyee wɔe” ta la,
and the lond of Egipt schal be in to desert, and in to wildirnesse, and thei schulen wite, that Y am the Lord. For that that thou seidist, The flood is myn, and Y made it, therfor lo!
10 metso ɖe wò kple wò tɔsisiwo ŋu, eye mana Egiptenyigba nazu aƒedo kple gbegbe tso Migdol va se ɖe Aswan, va do ɖe keke Kus ƒe liƒowo dzi.
Y to thee, and to thi floodis. And Y schal yyue `in to wildirnesses the lond of Egipt distried bi swerd, fro the tour of Sienes til to the termes of Ethiopie.
11 Amegbetɔ alo lã aɖeke ƒe afɔ magato edzi o. Ame aɖeke maganɔ afi ma o ƒe blaene sɔŋ.
The foot of man schal not passe bi it, nether the foot of beeste schal go in it, and it schal not be enhabitid in fourti yeer.
12 Mana Egiptenyigba nazu aƒedo le anyigba siwo wògblẽ la dome, eye eƒe duwo azu aƒedo ƒe blaene le du siwo wogbã la dome. Makaka Egiptetɔwo ɖe dukɔwo dome, akaka wo, ahlẽ ɖe anyigbawo dzi.
And Y schal yyue the lond of Egipt forsakun, in the myddis of londis forsakun, and the citees therof in the myddis of a citee distried, and tho schulen be desolat bi fourti yeer. And Y schal scatere Egipcians in to naciouns, and Y schal wyndewe hem in to londis.
13 “‘Ke ale Aƒetɔ Yehowa gblɔe nye si. “Le ƒe blaene ƒe nuwuwu la, maƒo ƒu Egiptetɔwo tso dukɔ siwo me wokaka wo ɖo la me.
For the Lord God seith these thingis, After the ende of fourti yeer Y schal gadere togidere Egipt fro puplis, among whiche thei weren scaterid;
14 Magbugbɔ wo tso aboyome ava Egipte ƒe Dzigbeme, wo tɔgbuiwo ƒe anyigba dzi, eye woanye fiaɖuƒe sue aɖe le afi ma.
and Y schal bringe ayen the caitifte of Egipte. And Y schal sette hem in the lond of Phatures, in the lond of her birthe; and thei schulen be there in to a meke rewme,
15 Anye fiaɖuƒe gblɔetɔ le fiaɖuƒewo dome, eye magado eɖokui ɖe dzi wu fiaɖuƒe bubuawo o. Mana wòagbɔdzɔ ale gbegbe be, magaɖu dukɔ bubuwo dzi azɔ o.
and among othere rewmes it schal be most low, and it schal no more be reisid ouer naciouns. And Y schal make hem lesse, that thei regne not on hethene men;
16 Egipte maganye dukɔ si ŋu Israelviwo naɖo dzi ɖo o, ke boŋ ana woaɖo ŋku woƒe nu vɔ̃ si na wotrɔ ɖe eŋu hebia kpekpeɖeŋu la dzi. Ekema woanya be nyee nye Aƒetɔ Yehowa.”’”
and thei schulen no more be to the hous of Israel in trist, techinge wickidnesse, that thei fle, and sue hem; and thei schulen knowe, that Y am the Lord God.
17 Le ƒe blaeve-vɔ-adrelia ƒe ɣleti gbãtɔ ƒe ŋkeke gbãtɔ gbe la, Yehowa ƒe nya va nam be,
And it was don in the seuene and twentithe yeer, in the firste monethe, in the firste dai of the monethe, the word of the Lord was maad to me,
18 “Ame vi, Nebukadnezar, Babilonia fia, ho aʋa kple eƒe dukɔ ɖe Tiro ŋu; tawo katã bebe, eye abɔtawo katã ɖe bo. Ke eya kple eƒe aʋakɔ mekpɔ fetu aɖeke tso aʋahoho ɖe Tiro ŋu me o.
and he seide, Thou, sone of man, Nabugodonosor, kyng of Babiloyne, made his oost to serue bi greet seruyce ayens Tire; ech heed was maad ballid, and ech schuldir was maad bare of heer, and meede was not yoldun of Tire to hym, nether to his oost, for the seruyce bi which he seruede to me ayens it.
19 Eya ta ale Aƒetɔ Yehowa gblɔ, ‘Matsɔ Egipte ana Nebukadnezar, Babilonia fia, eye wòalɔ eƒe kesinɔnuwo adzoe. Aha nuwo le anyigba la dzi atsɔ axe fee na eƒe aʋawɔlawo.
Therfor the Lord God seith these thingis, Lo! Y schal yyue Nabugodonosor, kyng of Babiloyne, in the lond of Egipt, and he schal take the multitude therof; and he schal take in preye the clothis therof, and he schal rauysche the spuylis therof, and meede schal be to his oost,
20 Metsɔ Egipte nɛ abe fetu ene le eƒe agbagbadzedze ta, elabena nyee eya kple eƒe aʋakɔ wɔ dɔ la na.’ Aƒetɔ Yehowae gblɔe.
and to the werk for which he seruyde to me ayens it; and Y yaf the lond of Egipt to hym, for that that he trauelide to me, seith the Lord God.
21 “Le ŋkeke ma dzi la, ŋusẽ aɖo Israel ƒe aƒe ŋu, eye maʋu wò nu na wò le wo dome. Ekema woanya be nyee nye Yehowa.”
In that dai an horn of the hous of Israel schal come forth, and Y schal yyue to thee an open mouth in the myddis of hem; and thei schulen wite, that Y am the Lord.
