Hezekiel 29
1 Le ƒe ewolia ƒe ɣleti ewolia me, le ŋkeke wuievelia gbe la, Yehowa ƒe nya va nam be,
Ngomnyaka wetshumi, ngenyanga yetshumi ngosuku lwetshumi lambili, ilizwi likaThixo lafika kimi lisithi:
2 “Ame vi, trɔ mo ɖe Farao, Egipte fia ŋu, eye nàgblɔ nya ɖi ɖe eya kple Egipte katã ŋu.
“Ndodana yomuntu, khangelisa ubuso bakho kuFaro inkosi yaseGibhithe uphrofithe okubi ngaye langelizwe lonke laseGibhithe.
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.”
Khuluma laye uthi: ‘Nanku okutshiwo nguThixo Wobukhosi: Ngimelane lawe, Faro nkosi yaseGibhithe, wena silo esikhulu esilele phakathi kwezifula zaso. Uthi, “INayili ngeyakho; wazenzela yona.”
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.
Kodwa ngizafaka iwuka emihlathini yakho nginamathisele inhlanzi zezifula zakho, emaxolweni akho. Ngizakukhuphela ngaphandle kwezifula zakho, lenhlanzi zonke zinamathele emaxolweni akho.
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.
Ngizakutshiya enkangala, wena kanye lenhlanzi zonke zasezifuleni zakho. Uzawela egcekeni egangeni njalo ungabuthwa loba udojwe. Ngizakunikela njengokudla ezinyamazaneni zomhlaba lezinyoni zasemoyeni.
6 Ekema ame siwo katã le Egipte la anya be, nyee nye Yehowa. “‘Ènye aƒlati na Israel ƒe aƒe la.
Lapho-ke bonke abahlala eGibhithe bazakwazi ukuthi mina nginguThixo. Ube uludondolo lomhlanga lwendlu ka-Israyeli.
7 Esi wolé wò kple asi la, èŋe woƒe abɔta, eye esi woziɔ ɖe ŋuwò la, èŋee heƒo ɖe woƒe dzime.
Kwathi bekubamba ngezandla zabo, wacezuka waqhaqha amahlombe abo; kwathi lapho beseyama kuwe wephuka lamaqolo abo aqhuzuka.
8 “‘Eya ta ale Aƒetɔ Yehowa gblɔe nye esi: “Mahe yi aɖe ɖe ŋuwò, wòawu wò amewo kple woƒe lãwo.
Ngakho-ke nanku okutshiwo nguThixo Wobukhosi: Ngizaletha inkemba imelane lawe ngibulale abantu bakho kanye lezifuyo zabo.
9 Egipte azu aƒedo kple gbegbe. Ekema woanya be nyee nye Yehowa.” “‘Esi nègblɔ be, “Nil tɔsisi la nye tɔnye, nyee wɔe” ta la,
IGibhithe izakuba yinkangala echithekileyo. Lapho-ke bazakwazi ukuthi mina nginguThixo. Ngoba wathi, “INayili ngeyakho; nguwe owayenzayo,”
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.
ngakho ngimelana lawe kanye lezifula zakho, njalo ngizakwenza ilizwe laseGibhithe libe lunxiwa logwadule oluphundlekileyo kusukela eMigidoli kusiya e-Asiwani, kuze kuyefika emngceleni weKhushi.
11 Amegbetɔ alo lã aɖeke ƒe afɔ magato edzi o. Ame aɖeke maganɔ afi ma o ƒe blaene sɔŋ.
Akulanyawo lomuntu loba olwenyamazana oluzadabula phakathi kwalo; akulamuntu ozahlala khona okweminyaka engamatshumi amane.
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.
Ngizakwenza ilizwe laseGibhithe libe ngeliphundlekileyo phakathi kwamazwe achithekileyo, njalo amadolobho alo azaphundleka okweminyaka engamatshumi amane phakathi kwamadolobho angamanxiwa. AmaGibhithe ngizawachithela phakathi kwezizwe ngiwahlakazele emazweni.
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.
Kodwa nanku okutshiwo nguThixo Wobukhosi: Ekupheleni kweminyaka engamatshumi amane ngizaqoqa amaGibhithe ezizweni ayehlakazelwe kuzo.
14 Magbugbɔ wo tso aboyome ava Egipte ƒe Dzigbeme, wo tɔgbuiwo ƒe anyigba dzi, eye woanye fiaɖuƒe sue aɖe le afi ma.
Ngizawabuyisela evela ekuthunjweni yiGibhithe, ePhathrosi, ilizwe labokhokho babo. Lapho bazakuba ngumbuso omncane.
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.
Uzakuba ngumbuso omncane kakhulu emibusweni njalo kawuyikuziphakamisela phezulu kwezinye izizwe futhi. Ngizawenza ungabi lamandla ukuze ungabusi izizwe futhi.
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.”’”
IGibhithe kaliyikuba ngumthombo wethemba futhi wabantu bako-Israyeli kodwa lizakuba yisikhumbuzo sesono sabo sokuyafuna usizo kulo. Lapho-ke bazakwazi ukuthi mina nginguThixo Wobukhosi.’”
17 Le ƒe blaeve-vɔ-adrelia ƒe ɣleti gbãtɔ ƒe ŋkeke gbãtɔ gbe la, Yehowa ƒe nya va nam be,
Ngomnyaka wamatshumi amabili lesikhombisa, ngenyanga yakuqala ngelanga lakuqala, ilizwi likaThixo lafika kimi lisithi:
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.
“Ndodana yomuntu, uNebhukhadineza inkosi yaseBhabhiloni waqhuba ibutho lakhe ukuyakulwa impi enzima leThire, amakhanda wonke aphuculwa aphuceka, lamahlombe wonke aba buhlungu. Ikanti yena lebutho lakhe kabatholanga mvuzo empini ayikhokhela ekuhlaseleni iThire.
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.
Ngakho nanku okutshiwo nguThixo Wobukhosi: IGibhithe ngizalinikela kuNebhukhadineza inkosi yaseBhabhiloni, njalo uzathumba inotho yalo. Uzaliphundla aliphange ilizwe njengeholo lebutho lakhe.
20 Metsɔ Egipte nɛ abe fetu ene le eƒe agbagbadzedze ta, elabena nyee eya kple eƒe aʋakɔ wɔ dɔ la na.’ Aƒetɔ Yehowae gblɔe.
Ngimnike iGibhithe njengomvuzo wemizamo yakhe ngoba yena lebutho lakhe lokho bakwenzela mina, kutsho uThixo Wobukhosi.
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.”
Ngalolosuku ngizakwenza uphondo lukhulele indlu ka-Israyeli, njalo ngizavula umlomo wakho phakathi kwabo. Lapho-ke bazakwazi ukuthi mina nginguThixo.”
