Ezekieli 26

1 Mwaka-inĩ wa ikũmi na ũmwe, mũthenya wa mbere wa mweri, kiugo kĩa Jehova nĩkĩanginyĩrĩire, ngĩĩrwo atĩrĩ:

And it came to pass in the eleventh year, the first day of the month, that the word of the Lord came to me, saying:

2 “Mũrũ wa mũndũ, tondũ Turo riugĩte atĩrĩ ũhoro wa Jerusalemu, ‘Aha! Kĩhingo gĩa gũtoonya kwa ndũrĩrĩ nĩkiunange, na niĩ ngahingũrĩrwo mĩrango yarĩo; rĩu tondũ nĩ kwanangĩtwo-rĩ, nĩngũgaacĩra,’

Son of man, because Tyre hath said of Jerusalem: Aha, the gates of the people are broken, she is turned to me: I shall be filled, now she is laid waste.

3 nĩ ũndũ ũcio Mwathani Jehova oigĩte ũũ: Nĩngũgũũkĩrĩra wee Turo, na nĩngarehe ndũrĩrĩ nyingĩ igũũkĩrĩre, ta iria rĩgĩikia makũmbĩ marĩo na igũrũ.

Therefore thus saith the Lord God: Behold I come against thee, O Tyre, and I will cause many nations to come up to thee, as the waves of the sea rise up.

4 Nĩmakananga thingo cia Turo, na mamomore mĩthiringo yarĩo ĩrĩa mĩraihu na igũrũ; nĩngate kagoto karĩo na ndĩgũtue rwaro rwa ihiga itheri.

And they shall break down the walls of Tyre, and destroy the towers thereof: and I will scrape her dust from her, and make her like a smooth rock.

5 Kũu iria-inĩ gũgaatuĩka kũndũ gwa gũtambũrũkĩria nga cia gũtega thamaki, nĩgũkorwo ũhoro ũcio nĩ niĩ njarĩtie, ũguo nĩguo Mwathani Jehova ekuuga. Narĩo itũũra rĩu rĩgaatuĩka rĩa gũtahwo nĩ ndũrĩrĩ,

She shall be a drying place for nets in the midst of the sea, because I have spoken it, saith the Lord God: and she shall be a spoil to the nations.

6 nakuo kũndũ kwarĩo kũrĩa gũtũũragwo kũu bũrũri-thĩinĩ nĩgũkaniinwo na rũhiũ rwa njora. Hĩndĩ ĩyo nĩmakamenya atĩ niĩ nĩ niĩ Jehova.

Her daughters also that are in the field, shall be slain by the sword: and they shall know that I am the Lord.

7 “Nĩgũkorwo Mwathani Jehova ekuuga ũũ: Kuuma mwena wa gathigathini nĩngarehe Nebukadinezaru, mũthamaki wa Babuloni, mũthamaki wa athamaki, okĩrĩre Turo arĩ na mbarathi, na ngaari cia ita, na ahaici a mbarathi, na mbũtũ nene ya ita.

For thus saith the Lord God: Behold I will bring against Tyre Nabuchodonosor king of Babylon, the king of kings, from the north, with horses, and chariots, and horsemen, and companies, and much people.

8 Nĩakananga kũndũ gwaku gwa gũtũũrwo kũu bũrũri-inĩ na rũhiũ rwa njora, na arute wĩra wa gũkũrigiicĩria, agũũkĩrĩre, aakithie ihumbu nginya thingo-inĩ ciaku, na ambararie ngo ciake agũũkĩrĩre.

Thy daughters that are in the field, he shall kill with the sword: and he shall compass thee with forts, and shall cast up a mount round about: and he shall lift up the buckler against thee.

9 Nĩakoonereria nditi ya mĩgogo amomore thingo ciaku, na amomore mĩthiringo yaku ĩrĩa mĩraihu na igũrũ na indo ciake cia mbaara.

And he shall set engines of mar and battering rams against thy walls, and shall destroy thy towers with his arms.

10 Mbarathi ciake igaakorwo irĩ nyingĩ ũũ atĩ nĩigagũthika na rũkũngũ. Thingo ciaku nĩikainaina nĩ ũndũ wa inegene rĩa mbarathi cia mbaara, na makaari, na ngaari cia ita hĩndĩ ĩrĩa agaatoonyera ihingo-inĩ ciaku ta ũrĩa andũ matoonyaga itũũra inene rĩrĩa thingo imomoretwo.

By reason of the multitude of his horses, their dust shall cover thee: thy walls shall shake at the noise of the horsemen, and wheels, and chariots, when they shall go in at thy gates, as by the entrance of a city that is destroyed.

11 Mahũngũ ma mbarathi ciake nĩmakaranga njĩra ciaku ciothe; nĩakooraga andũ aku na rũhiũ rwa njora, nacio itugĩ ciaku cia hinya nĩikaagũa thĩ.

With the hoofs of his horses he shall tread down all thy streets: thy people he shall kill with the sword, and thy famous statues shall fall to the ground.

12 Nĩmagagũtaha ũtonga waku na magũtunye indo ciaku cia wonjoria; nĩmakamomora thingo ciaku na matharie nyũmba ciaku iria njega, na maikie mahiga maku, na mbaũ, o na kagoto iria-inĩ.

They shall waste thy riches, they shall make a spoil of thy merchandise: and they shall destroy thy walls, and pull down thy fine houses: and they shall lay thy stones and thy timber, and thy dust in the midst of the waters.

13 Nĩngakinyia inegene rĩa nyĩmbo ciaku mũthia, na mũgambo wa inanda ciaku cia mũgeeto ndũkaiguuo rĩngĩ.

And I will make the multitude of thy songs to cease, and the sound of thy harps shall be heard no more.

14 Nĩngatũma ũtuĩke rwaro rwa ihiga itheri, na nĩũgatuĩka handũ ha gũtambũrũkĩrio nga cia gũtega thamaki. Ndũgacooka gwakwo rĩngĩ, nĩ ũndũ niĩ Jehova nĩ niĩ njarĩtie ũhoro ũcio, ũguo nĩguo Mwathani Jehova ekuuga.

And I will make thee like a naked rock, then shalt be a drying place for nets, neither shalt thou be built any more: for I have spoken it, saith. the Lord God.

15 “Mwathani Jehova ekwĩra Turo atĩrĩ: Mabũrũri marĩa marĩ ndwere-inĩ cia iria githĩ matikainaina nĩ mũrurumo wa kũgũa gwaku, hĩndĩ ĩrĩa arĩa magurarĩtio magaacaaya, nayo njũragano yũraganwo thĩinĩ waku?

Thus saith the Lord God to Tyre: Shall not the islands shake at the sound of thy fall, and the groans of thy slain when they shall be killed in the midst of thee?

16 Ningĩ anene othe arĩa marĩ ndwere-inĩ cia iria nĩmakehera itĩ-inĩ ciao cia ũnene, na marute nguo ciao iria ndaaya, na marute nguo ciao iria ngʼemie. Mahumbĩtwo kĩmako, magaikara thĩ makĩinainaga mahinda mothe, maguoyohetio nĩwe.

Then all the princes of the sea shall come down from their thrones: and take off their robes, and cast away their broidered garments, and be clothed with astonishment: they shall sit on the ground, and with amazement shall wonder at thy sudden fall.

17 Hĩndĩ ĩyo nĩmakoerera icakaya rĩgũkoniĩ, makwĩre atĩrĩ: “‘Kaĩ ũrĩ mwanange-ĩ, o wee itũũra rĩrĩ igweta, o wee watũũragwo nĩ andũ arĩa maathiiaga iria-inĩ-ĩ! Wee nĩwe warĩ na ũhoti kũu iria-inĩ, wee na atũũri aku; nĩwatũmaga arĩa othe maatũũraga kuo manyiitwo nĩ guoya.

And taking up a lamentation over thee, they shall sag to thee: How art thou fallen, that dwellest in the sea, renowned city that wast strong in the sea, with thy inhabitants whom all did dread?

18 Rĩu-rĩ, mabũrũri marĩa marĩ ndwere-inĩ cia iria nĩmakainaina mũthenya wa kũgũa gwaku; icigĩrĩra cia iria-inĩ nĩikamakio nĩ kũmomoka gwaku.’

Now shall the ships be astonished in the day of thy terror: and the islands in the sea shall be troubled because no one cometh out of thee.

19 “Mwathani Jehova ekuuga atĩrĩ: Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa ngaatũma ũtuĩke itũũra inene rĩtiganĩirio, ũhaane ta matũũra manene marĩa matatũũragwo, na hĩndĩ ĩrĩa ngaareka ũriku wa iria ũkũhumbĩre, naguo ũingĩ wa maaĩ marĩo ũgũthike-rĩ,

For thus saith the Lord God: When I shall make thee a desolate city like the cities that are not inhabited: and shall bring the deep upon thee, and many waters shall cover thee:

20 hĩndĩ ĩyo nĩguo ngaagũikũrũkia hamwe na arĩa maikũrũkagio irima-inĩ harĩ andũ arĩa a tene. Nĩngatũma ũtũũre mũhuro wa thĩ, ta kũndũ kũrĩa gũtũũrĩte gũkirĩte ihooru o kuuma tene, hamwe na arĩa maikũrũkagio irima-inĩ, nawe ndũgacooka kana ũikare gũkũ bũrũri-inĩ wa arĩa marĩ muoyo.

And when I shall bring thee down with those that descend into the pit to the everlasting people, and shall set thee in the lowest parts of the earth, as places desolate of old, with them that are brought down into the pit, that thou be not inhabited: and when I shall give glory in the land of the living,

21 Nĩngatũma ũrĩkĩrĩrie na kĩmako kĩnene, nawe ndũgacooka kuonwo rĩngĩ. Ũgaacaragio na ndũgacooka kuoneka, ũguo nĩguo Mwathani Jehova ekuuga.”

I will bring thee to nothing, and thou shalt not be, and if thou be sought for, thou shalt not be found any more for ever, saith the Lord God.
