Hezekiel 31
1 Le ƒe wuiɖekɛlia ƒe ɣleti etɔ̃lia ƒe ŋkeke gbãtɔ gbe la, Yehowa ƒe nya va nam be,
And it was don in the enleuenthe yeer, in the thridde moneth, in the firste dai of the monethe, the word of the Lord was maad to me,
2 “Ame vi, gblɔ na Farao, Egipte fia kple eƒe ame gbogboawo be, “Ame kae woate ŋu atsɔ asɔ kple wò le fianyenye me?
and he seide, Thou, sone of man, seie to Farao, kyng of Egipt, and to his puple, To whom art thou maad lijk in thi greetnesse?
3 Bu Asiria ŋu kpɔ. Enye sedati kpɔ le Lebanon. Eƒe atilɔ dzeaniwo keke tsyɔ ave la dzi. Ekɔ nyuie, kɔ wu ati bubuawo
Lo! Assur as a cedre in Liban, fair in braunchis, and ful of boowis, and hiy bi hiynesse; and his heiyte was reisid among thicke bowis.
4 Tsiwo na nunyiamewoe, tsitsetse goglowo na wòkɔ, woƒe tɔsisiwo tsa ƒo xlã ete, eye wodo eƒe alɔdzewo ɖe ati siwo katã le gbedzi la gbɔ.
Watris nurschiden hym, the depthe of watris enhaunside him; hise floodis fletiden out in the cumpas of hise rootis, and he sente out hise strondis to alle the trees of the cuntrei.
5 Ale wògakɔ ɖe edzi wu ati bubuwo katã le gbea dzi. Eƒe alɔwo sɔ gbɔ ɖe edzi, eye eƒe alɔdzewo didi hekla ɖe tsi ƒe agbɔsɔsɔ ta.
Therfor his hiynesse was enhaunsid ouer alle trees of the cuntrei, and hise trees weren multiplied, and hise braunchis weren reisid, for many watris.
6 Dziƒoxeviwo katã wɔ atɔ ɖe eƒe alɔwo dzi, gbemelãwo katã dzi vi ɖe eƒe alɔwo te, eye dukɔ gãwo katã nɔ eƒe vɔvɔli te.
And whanne he hadde stretchid forth his schadewe, alle the volatils of the eir maden nestis in hise braunchis; and alle the beestis of forestis gendriden vndur hise boowis, and the cumpeny of ful many folkis dwellide vndur the schadewynge place of hym.
7 Eɖi fia le eƒe nyonyo me, le eƒe alɔwo ƒe keke ta, elabena eƒe kewo le tsi sɔgbɔ me.
And he was ful fair in his greetnesse, and in alargyng of hise trees; for the roote of hym was bisidis many watris.
8 Sedati siwo nɔ Mawu ƒe abɔ me la mete ŋu ke ɖi kplii o, sesewu ƒe alɔwo mete ŋu de etɔwo nu o, eye womate ŋu atsɔ xetiwo ƒe alɔwo asɔ kple etɔwo o. Ati siwo katã nɔ Mawu ƒe abɔ me la, mede enu le nyonyo me o.
Cedris in the paradijs of God weren not hiyere than he; fir trees atteyneden not euenli to the hiynesse of hym, and plane trees weren not euene with the boowis of hym. Ech tree of paradijs of God was not maad lic hym and his fairnesse.
9 Mewɔe wònyo kple eƒe alɔdze geɖewo, eye wònye ŋubiã na ati siwo katã nɔ Edenbɔ, Mawu ƒe abɔ la me.
For Y made hym fair, and with many and thicke boowis; and alle the trees of lust, that weren in the paradijs of God, hadden enuye to hym.
10 “Ale Aƒetɔ Yehowa gblɔe nye esi: ‘Esi wòkɔ bobobo wu ati bubuwo, eye wòdana le eƒe kɔkɔ ta la,
Therfor the Lord God seith these thingis, For that that he was reisid in hiynesse, and he yaf his hyynesse greene and thicke, and his herte was reisid in his hiynesse;
11 metsɔe de asi na dukɔwo dziɖula be wòatu nu kplii ɖe eƒe ŋutasesẽ ta. Meɖee ɖe aga,
now Y haue youe hym in to the hondis of the strongeste man of hethene men. And he doynge schal do to that Assur; aftir the vnfeithfulnesse of hym Y castide hym out.
12 eye amedzro dukɔ si mekpɔa nublanui kura o la tsɔe ƒu anyi hedzo le egbɔ. Eƒe alɔdzewo dze towo kple balimewo katã dzi; eƒe alɔdzewo ŋe, kaka ɖe anyigba la katã dzi. Dukɔwo katã le anyigba dzi do le eƒe vɔvɔli te, eye wogblẽe ɖi.
And aliens, and the moost cruel men of naciouns, schulen kitte hym doun, and schulen caste hym forth on hillis. And hise braunchis schulen falle doun in alle grete valeis, and hise trees schulen be brokun in alle roochis of stoon of erthe. And alle the puplis of erthe schulen go awei fro his schadewing place, and schulen forsake hym.
13 Dziƒoxeviwo katã dze ɖe ati si mu la dzi, eye gbemelãwo katã nɔ eƒe alɔdzewo dome.
Alle volatils of the eir dwelliden in the fallyng of hym, and alle beestis of the cuntrei weren in the braunchis of hym.
14 Eya ta ati bubu siwo le tsiwo to la dometɔ aɖeke magada le eƒe kɔkɔ ta o, eye woƒe ɖɔme magakɔ wu avemeti bubuawo tɔwo o. Ati bubu siwo le tsiwo to la magade dzi nenema o. Ele na wo katã be woaku kokoko ayi tome, anɔ ame kukuwo dome kple ame siwo ayi aʋlime.’
Wherfor alle the trees of watris schulen not be reisid in hir hiynesse, nether schulen sette hir hiynesse among places ful of woode, and ful of boowis, and alle trees that ben moistid of watris schulen not stonde in the hiynesse of tho. For alle thei ben youun in to deth, to the ferthest lond in the myddis of the sones of men, to hem that goon doun in to the lake.
15 “Ale Aƒetɔ Yehowa gblɔe nye esi: ‘Gbe si gbe wokɔe de yɔdo me la, mena tsi dzidzi goglowo fa konyi ɖe wo ta. Eya ta meda viviti ɖe Lebanon dzi, eye ati siwo katã le gbedzi la ku. (Sheol h7585)
The Lord God seith these thingis, In the dai whanne he yede doun to hellis, Y brouyte yn mourenyng; Y hilide hym with depthe of watris, and I forbede his flodis, and Y refreynede many watris. The Liban was sori on him, and alle the trees of the feeld (Sheol h7585)
16 Mena eƒe anyidzedze ƒe ɖiɖi na dukɔwo dzo nyanyanya, esi mena wòge ɖe yɔdo me kple ame siwo yi aʋlime. Ekema atiwo katã le Eden, Lebanon ƒe ati nyuitɔwo, ati siwo katã ŋu tsi nɔ nyuie, wofa akɔ na wo katã le aʋlime. (Sheol h7585)
weren shakun of the soun of his falling. I mouide togidere hethene men, whanne Y ledde hym doun to helle, with hem that yeden doun in to the lake. And alle trees of likyng, noble trees, and ful cleere in the Liban, alle that weren moistid with watris, weren coumfortid in the loweste lond. (Sheol h7585)
17 Ame siwo nɔ eƒe vɔvɔli te, ame siwo wòtsɔ aʋae le dukɔwo dome la, hã yi yɔdo me kplii, kpe ɖe ame siwo tsi yinu la ŋuti. (Sheol h7585)
For whi also thei schulen go doun with hym to helle, to slayn men with swerd; and the arm of ech man schal sitte vndur the schadewyng place of hym, in the myddis of naciouns. (Sheol h7585)
18 “‘Ati siwo nɔ Eden la dometɔ kae woatsɔ asɔ kpli wò le nyonyo kple fianyenye me? Ke woatsɔ wò hã akpe ɖe Eɖen ƒe atiwo ŋuti ade yɔdo me. Ànɔ aʋamatsomatsotɔwo dome, akpe ɖe ame siwo tsi yinu la ŋuti. “‘Ame siawoe nye Farao kple eƒe ame gbogboawo’ Aƒetɔ Yehowae gblɔe.”
To whom art thou licned, thou noble and hiy among the trees of likyng? Lo! thou art led doun with the trees of likyng to the fertheste lond. In the myddis of vncircumcidid men thou schalt slepe, with hem that ben slayn bi swerd. Thilke is Farao, and al the multitude of hym, seith the Lord God.
