< Ezekieli 25 >
1 Kiugo kĩa Jehova nĩkĩanginyĩrĩire ngĩĩrwo atĩrĩ:
[Some time later, ] Yahweh gave me another message. [He said, ]
2 “Mũrũ wa mũndũ, erekeria ũthiũ waku harĩ Aamoni, na ũmarathĩre ũhoro wa kũmookĩrĩra.
“You human, turn toward where the Ammon people- [lives], and prophesy [what will happen to] them.
3 Meere atĩrĩ, ‘Iguai kiugo kĩa Mwathani Jehova. Ũũ nĩguo Mwathani Jehova ekuuga: Tondũ nĩmuoigire, “Aha!” Igũrũ rĩa harĩa-hakwa-haamũre hĩndĩ ĩrĩa haathaahirio, o na igũrũ rĩa bũrũri wa Isiraeli rĩrĩa wanangirwo, na ningĩ igũrũ rĩa andũ a Juda hĩndĩ ĩrĩa maatahirwo-rĩ,
Say about them, ‘This is what Yahweh the Lord says: “You shouted joyfully when my [in Jerusalem] was destroyed, and when the country/land of Israel was ruined, and when the people of Judah were (exiled/forced to go) [to Babylonia].
4 nĩ ũndũ ũcio nĩngũmũneana kũrĩ andũ a kũu irathĩro mũtuĩke kĩndũ kĩao. Nĩmagaaka kambĩ ciikaro ciao na mambe hema ciao, thĩinĩ wanyu; nĩmakaarĩa matunda manyu, na manyue iria rĩanyu.
Therefore, I am going to allow you to be conquered by people [who will come] from the east. They will set up their tents in your country and live there. And they will eat the fruit from [fruit trees] and drink the [from your cattle].
5 Nĩngagarũra Raba gũtuĩke ũrĩithio wa ngamĩĩra, nakuo Amoni gũtuĩke gwa kwarahwo nĩ ngʼondu. Hĩndĩ ĩyo nĩmũkamenya atĩ niĩ nĩ niĩ Jehova.
I will [your capital city] Rabbah to become a pasture for camels, and the rest of Ammon to [only] a resting place for sheep. Then you will know that I, Yahweh, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].”
6 Nĩgũkorwo ũũ nĩguo Mwathani Jehova ekuuga: Tondũ inyuĩ nĩmũhũũrĩte hĩ na mũkaringithia makinya manyu thĩ, mũgĩkenagĩrĩra bũrũri wa Isiraeli mũrĩ na rũmena ruothe rwa ngoro cianyu,
This is what [I], Yahweh the Lord, say: “You clapped your [joyfully] and stomped your feet, and laughed because you despised [the people in] the land of Israel.
7 nĩ ũndũ ũcio nĩngamũtambũrũkĩria guoko gwakwa, ndĩmũũkĩrĩre na ndĩmũneane mũtahwo nĩ ndũrĩrĩ. Nĩngamweherania na ndũrĩrĩ, na ndĩmũniine mabũrũri-inĩ. Nĩngamwananga, na inyuĩ nĩmũkamenya atĩ niĩ nĩ niĩ Jehova.’”
Therefore, I will use my power [MTY] against you, and I will enable [other] nations [conquer you and] take away your valuable possessions. I will destroy you completely [DOU], with the result that you no longer will be a nation. When that happens, people will know that I, Yahweh, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].’”
8 “Mwathani Jehova ekuuga atĩrĩ: ‘Tondũ Moabi na Seiru moigire atĩrĩ, “Ta rora, nyũmba ya Juda ĩtuĩkĩte o ta ndũrĩrĩ iria ingĩ ciothe,”
This is [also] what Yahweh the Lord says: “[The people of] [south of Ammon] and [the people of] [south of Moab despised Israel and] said, ‘The people [MTY] of Israel have [as unimportant] as all the other nations!’
9 nĩ ũndũ ũcio nĩngaguũria rũbaru rwa Moabi, nyambĩrĩirie na matũũra makuo ma mĩhaka-inĩ, na nĩmo Bethi-Jeshimothu, na Baali-Meoni, na Kiriathaimu, na nĩmo monagwo marĩ riiri wa bũrũri ũcio.
Therefore, I will destroy the cities that protect the borders of Moab, starting at Beth-Jeshimoth, Baal-Meon, and Kiriathaim, the finest cities in Moab.
10 Nĩnganeana Moabi hamwe na Aamoni moko-inĩ ma andũ a Irathĩro matuĩke indo ciao, nĩgeetha Aamoni acio matikanaririkanwo ndũrĩrĩ-inĩ;
I will enable people from the east to conquer Moab and also to conquer Ammon. As a result, [I will cause that] Ammon will no longer be remembered by other nations.
11 na niĩ nĩngaherithia Moabi. Hĩndĩ ĩyo nĩmakamenya atĩ niĩ nĩ niĩ Jehova.’”
I will also punish [the people of] Moab. When that happens, they will know that I, Yahweh, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].”
12 “Mwathani Jehova ekuuga atĩrĩ: ‘Tondũ Edomu nĩerĩhĩirie harĩ nyũmba ya Juda na agĩtuĩka mũhĩtia mũno nĩ ũndũ wa gwĩka ũguo-rĩ,
This is [also] what Yahweh the Lord says: “[You people of] Edom are guilty of getting revenge on the people [MTY] of Judah.
13 nĩ ũndũ ũcio Mwathani Jehova ekuuga atĩrĩ: Nĩngatambũrũkia guoko gwakwa njũkĩrĩre Edomu na njũrage andũ akuo na mahiũ mao. Nĩngakwananga, na kuuma Timani nginya Dedani, nĩmakooragwo na rũhiũ rwa njora.
Therefore this is what [I], Yahweh the Lord, say: 'I will use my power against [the people of] Edom and will get rid of their men and their animals. I will ruin the land from Teman [region in central Edom] to Dedan [region in the south of Edom], and many of their men will be killed [their enemies] swords.'
14 Nĩngerĩhĩria harĩ Edomu na guoko kwa andũ akwa Isiraeli, nao nĩmageeka Edomu kũringana na marakara makwa na mangʼũrĩ makwa; nĩmakamenya kwĩrĩhĩria gwakwa, ũguo nĩguo Mwathani Jehova ekuuga.’”
The Israeli people will use their power [MTY] to get revenge on [the people of] Edom. They will show [the people of] Edom that I have been angry with them, and I will punish [MTY] them. The people of Edom will experience my getting revenge on them. Then they will know that I, Yahweh the Lord, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].”
15 “Mwathani Jehova ekuuga atĩrĩ; ‘Tondũ Afilisti nĩmekire maũndũ ma kwĩrĩhĩria, na makĩĩrĩhĩria marĩ na rũmena ngoro-inĩ ciao na marĩ na muku wa matukũ maingĩ magĩtua atĩ nĩmekwananga Juda,
This is [also] what Yahweh the Lord says: “The Philistia people-group wanted very much to get revenge [on the people of Judah]. They very maliciously wanted to destroy [Judah].
16 nĩ ũndũ ũcio Mwathani Jehova ekuuga ũũ: Ngirie gũtambũrũkia guoko gwakwa njũkĩrĩre Afilisti, na nĩngeheria Akerethi na nyanange arĩa matigaire ndwere-inĩ cia iria.
Therefore this is what I, Yahweh the Lord, say: I am about to use my power [MTY] against the Philistia people. I will get rid of the Kereth people-group and all [those who live along] the coast of the [Mediterranean] Sea.
17 Nĩngerĩhĩria harĩo na rĩĩrĩhĩria inene na ndĩmaherithie ndĩ na mangʼũrĩ. Hĩndĩ ĩyo nĩmakamenya atĩ niĩ nĩ niĩ Jehova, hĩndĩ ĩrĩa ngeerĩhĩria harĩo.’”
By the way I punish them, I will get great revenge on them and show that I am angry with them. And when I get revenge on them, they will know that I, Yahweh the Lord, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].'”
