< Ezekieli 34 >
1 Kiugo kĩa Jehova nĩkĩanginyĩrĩire, ngĩĩrwo atĩrĩ:
And the word of the Lord came vnto me, saying,
2 “Mũrũ wa mũndũ, ratha ũhoro wa gũũkĩrĩra arĩithi a Isiraeli; ratha ũhoro, ũmeere atĩrĩ: ‘Mwathani Jehova ekuuga ũũ: Kaĩ arĩithi a Isiraeli, o acio merĩithagia o ene, marĩ na haaro-ĩ! Githĩ arĩithi ti a kũrĩithagia rũũru?
Sonne of man, prophesie against the shepherdes of Israel, prophesie and say vnto them, Thus saieth the Lord God vnto the shepherds, Wo be vnto the shepherds of Israel, that feede them selues: should not the shepherds feede the flockes?
3 Inyuĩ mũrĩĩaga ngʼondu iria noru, na mũkehumba nguo cia guoya wacio, na mũgathĩnja iria njega, no mũtirĩithagia rũũru rũu.
Yee eate the fat, and yee clothe you with the wooll: yee kill them that are fed, but ye feede not the sheepe.
4 Inyuĩ mũtiĩkĩrĩte iria hinyaru hinya, kana mũkahonia iria ndwaru, o na kana mũkooha iria ndiihie. Mũtihũndũrĩte iria itururĩte, kana mũgacaria iria ciũrĩte. Mũciathĩte na hinya, o na mũtarĩ na tha.
The weake haue ye not strengthened: the sicke haue ye not healed, neither haue ye bounde vp the broken, nor brought againe that which was driuen away, neither haue yee sought that which was lost, but with crueltie, and with rigour haue yee ruled them.
5 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio ciahurunjũkire tondũ itiarĩ na mũrĩithi, na rĩrĩa ciahurunjũkire ĩgĩtuĩka irio cia nyamũ ciothe cia gĩthaka.
And they were scattered without a shepherde: and when they were dispersed, they were deuoured of all the beastes of the fielde.
6 Ngʼondu ciakwa ciorũũrire kũu irĩma-inĩ guothe o na tũrĩma-igũrũ. Ciahurunjirwo thĩ yothe, na gũtirĩ mũndũ worĩrĩirie kũrĩa irĩ, kana agĩcicaria.
My sheepe wandred through all the mountaines, and vpon euery hie hill: yea, my flocke was scattered through al the earth, and none did seeke or search after them.
7 “‘Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, inyuĩ arĩithi-rĩ, iguai kiugo kĩa Jehova:
Therefore ye shepherds, heare the woorde of the Lord.
8 Mwathani Jehova ekuuga atĩrĩ: Ti-itherũ o ta ũrĩa niĩ ndũũraga muoyo, tondũ rũũru rwakwa nĩ rwagĩte mũrĩithi, na nĩrũtahĩtwo rũgatuĩka irio cia nyamũ ciothe cia gĩthaka, na ningĩ tondũ arĩithi akwa matiigana gũcaria rũũru rwakwa, no nĩo ene meemenyereire handũ ha kũmenyerera rũũru rwakwa-rĩ,
As I liue, sayeth the Lord God, surely because my flocke was spoyled, and my sheepe were deuoured of all the beasts of the fielde, hauing no shepherde, neither did my shepherdes seeke my sheepe, but the shepherdes fedde them selues, and fedde not my sheepe,
9 nĩ ũndũ ũcio, inyuĩ arĩithi, iguai kiugo kĩa Jehova:
Therefore, heare ye the word of the Lord, O ye shepherds.
10 Mwathani Jehova ekuuga ũũ: Nĩngũũkĩrĩra arĩithi acio, na nĩo ngooria rũũru rwakwa. Nĩngameheria matige kũrĩithia rũũru rũu, nĩguo arĩithi acio matigacooke kũrĩa ngʼondu. Nĩngateithũra rũũru rwakwa kuuma tũnua-inĩ twao, nĩguo rũtigatuĩke irio cia kũrĩĩo nĩo.
Thus saieth the Lord God, Behold, I come against the shepherds, and will require my sheepe at their hands, and cause them to cease from feeding the sheepe: neither shall the shepherds feede them selues any more: for I wil deliuer my sheepe from their mouthes, and they shall no more deuoure them.
11 “‘Nĩgũkorwo Mwathani Jehova ekuuga atĩrĩ: Niĩ mwene, nĩ niĩ ngaacaria ngʼondu ciakwa ndĩcirĩithagie.
For thus sayeth the Lord God, Beholde, I will search my sheepe, and seeke them out.
12 O ta ũrĩa mũrĩithi amenyagĩrĩra rũũru rwake rũrĩa rũhurunjũkĩte rĩrĩa arĩ hamwe naruo-rĩ, ũguo nĩguo o na niĩ ngaamenyagĩrĩra ngʼondu ciakwa. Nĩngaciteithũra ndĩcirute kũrĩa guothe ciahurunjirwo mũthenya ũrĩa kwarĩ matu na nduma.
As a shepherd searcheth out his flocke, when he hath bene among his sheepe that are scattered, so wil I seeke out my sheepe and wil deliuer them out of all places, where they haue beene scattered in the cloudie and darke day,
13 Nĩngaciruta ndũrĩrĩ-inĩ, na ndĩcicookanĩrĩrie kuuma mabũrũri-inĩ, na ndĩcirehe bũrũri ũrĩa ũrĩ wacio kĩũmbe. Nĩngacirĩithagia kũu irĩma-inĩ cia bũrũri wa Isiraeli, na tũmĩkuru-inĩ, o na kũu bũrũri-inĩ ũcio kũrĩa gũtũũragwo nĩ andũ.
And I will bring them out from the people, and gather them from the countreis, and will bring them to their owne lande, and feede them vpon the mountaines of Israel, by the riuers, and in all the inhabited places of the countrey.
14 Nĩngacirĩithagia kũrĩa kũrĩ na ũrĩithio mwega, na irĩma-inĩ cia bũrũri wa Isiraeli nĩkuo gũgaatuĩka bũrũri wacio wa ũrĩithio. Kũu nĩkuo ikaarahaga, bũrũri ũrĩ ũrĩithio mwega, na irĩĩage ũrĩithio-inĩ mũnoru, kũu irĩma-inĩ cia bũrũri wa Isiraeli.
I will feede them in a good pasture, and vpon the hie mountaines of Israel shall their folde be: there shall they lie in a good folde and in fat pasture shall they feede vpon the mountaines of Israel.
15 Mwathani Jehova ekuuga atĩrĩ, Niĩ mwene nĩ niĩ ngerĩithagĩria ngʼondu ciakwa, na ndũme ciarahage kũu.
I will feede my sheepe, and bring them to their rest, sayth the Lord God.
16 Nĩngacaria iria ciũrĩte, na njookie iria itururĩte. Nĩngooha iria ndiihie nacio iria hinyaru ndĩciĩkĩre hinya, no iria noru na iria irĩ na hinya-rĩ, nĩkũniina ngaaciniina. Nĩngarĩithagia rũũru rũu na kĩhooto.
I will seeke that which was lost, and bring againe that which was driue away, and will binde vp that which was broken, and will strengthen the weake but I wil destroy the fat and the strong, and I will feede them with iudgement.
17 “‘Mwathani Jehova ekuuga ũũ: “Ha ũhoro wanyu inyuĩ rũũru rwakwa-rĩ, nĩngatuithania ciira gatagatĩ ka ngʼondu ĩmwe na ĩrĩa ĩngĩ, na gatagatĩ ka ndũrũme na thenge.
Also you my sheepe, Thus saieth the Lord God, behold, I iudge betweene sheepe, and sheepe, betweene the rammes and the goates.
18 Anga ti ũndũ mũiganu harĩ inyuĩ kũrĩa kũu ũrĩithio-inĩ ũcio mwega? Ningĩ no nginya mũrangĩrĩrie ũrĩithio ũcio ũngĩ wanyu na makinya? Anga ti ũndũ mũiganu harĩ inyuĩ kũnyua maaĩ makembu? No nginya mũcooke munjuge maaĩ macio mangĩ na makinya manyu?
Seemeth it a small thing vnto you to haue eaten vp the good pasture, but yee must treade downe with your feete the residue of your pasture? and to haue drunke of the deepe waters, but yee must trouble the residue with your feete?
19 No nginya rũũru rwakwa rũrĩĩage kĩrĩa mũrangĩrĩirie, na rũnyuuage kĩrĩa munjugĩte na makinya manyu?”
And my sheepe eate that which yee haue troden with your feete, and drinke that which ye haue troubled with your feete.
20 “‘Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, Mwathani Jehova ekũmeera ũũ: Atĩrĩrĩ, niĩ mwene nĩ niĩ ngaatuithania ciira gatagatĩ ka ngʼondu iria noru na iria hĩnju.
Therefore thus sayth the Lord God vnto them, behold, I, euen I wil iudge betweene the fat sheepe and the leane sheepe.
21 Tondũ mũcithinĩkanagia na rwere, o na kĩande, nacio ngʼondu iria itarĩ na hinya mũgacitiindĩka na hĩa cianyu o nginya mũgaciingata,
Because ye haue thrust with side and with shoulder, and pusht al the weake with your hornes, till ye haue scattered them abroade,
22 nĩngahonokia rũũru rwakwa, naruo rũtigaacooka gũtahwo rĩngĩ. Nĩngatuithania ciira gatagatĩ ka ngʼondu ĩmwe na ĩrĩa ĩngĩ.
Therefore wil I helpe my sheepe, and they shall no more be spoyled, and I wil iudge betweene sheepe and sheepe.
23 Nĩngaciarahũrĩra mũrĩithi ũmwe, nake nĩ Daudi ndungata yakwa, na nĩwe ũgaacirĩithagia; agaacirĩithagia na atuĩke mũrĩithi wacio.
And I wil set vp a shepherd ouer them, and he shall feede them, euen my seruant Dauid, he shall feede them, and he shalbe their shepherd.
24 Niĩ Jehova nĩ niĩ ngaatuĩka Ngai wacio, nake Daudi ndungata yakwa nĩagatuĩka mũthamaki gatagatĩ-inĩ ga cio. Niĩ Jehova nĩ niĩ njarĩtie ũhoro ũcio.
And I the Lord will be their God, and my seruant Dauid shalbe the prince amog them. I the Lord haue spoken it.
25 “‘Nĩngathondeka kĩrĩkanĩro gĩa thayũ nacio, nacio nyamũ cia gĩthaka ndĩcieherie kũu bũrũri-inĩ ũcio, nĩgeetha itũũre werũ-inĩ na ikomage mĩtitũ-inĩ irĩ na thayũ.
And I will make with them a couenant of peace, and will cause the euil beastes to cease out of the land: and they shall dwel safely in the wildernesse, and sleepe in the woods.
26 Nĩngacirathima na ndaathime kũrĩa gũthiũrũkĩirie kĩrĩma gĩakwa. Nĩngoiragia mbura hĩndĩ ya kĩmera yakinya; nĩgũkaagĩa mbura ya kĩrathimo.
And I wil set them, as a blessing, euen roud about my mountaine: and I will cause rayne to come downe in due season, and there shalbe raine of blessing.
27 Mĩtĩ ya mũgũnda nĩĩgaciaraga maciaro mayo, nayo mĩgũnda ĩgĩe na magetha mayo; andũ nao nĩmagaikaraga na thayũ thĩinĩ wa bũrũri wao. Nĩmakamenya atĩ niĩ nĩ niĩ Jehova, rĩrĩa ngoinanga mĩtĩ ya macooki kuuma ngingo-inĩ ciao, na ndĩmateithũre kuuma moko-inĩ ma arĩa maamatuire ngombo.
And the tree of the fielde shall yeeld her fruite, and the earth shall giue her fruite, and they shalbe safe in their land, and shall know that I am the Lord, when I haue broken the cordes of their yoke, and deliuered them out of the hands of those that serued themselues of them.
28 Matigacooka gũtahwo nĩ ndũrĩrĩ, kana kũrĩĩo nĩ nyamũ cia gĩthaka. Magaatũũraga na thayũ, na gũtirĩ mũndũ ũkaamamakagia.
And they shall no more be spoyled of the heathen, neither shall the beastes of the land deuoure them, but they shall dwell safely and none shall make them afrayd.
29 Nĩngamahe bũrũri ũĩkaine nĩ ũndũ wa kũgĩa magetha, nao matigacooka kũhũũta marĩ kũu bũrũri-inĩ ũcio kana maconorithio nĩ ndũrĩrĩ icio.
And I will rayse vp for them a plant of renoume, and they shalbe no more consumed with hunger in the land, neither beare the reproche of the heathen any more.
30 Nao nĩmakamenya atĩ niĩ, Jehova Ngai wao, ndĩ hamwe nao, na atĩ nĩo andũ akwa, o andũ a nyũmba ya Isiraeli, ũguo nĩguo Mwathani Jehova ekuuga.
Thus shall they vnderstande, that I the Lord their God am with them, and that they, euen the house of Israel, are my people, sayth the Lord God.
31 Inyuĩ ngʼondu ciakwa, o inyuĩ ngʼondu cia rũũru rwakwa-rĩ, inyuĩ mũrĩ andũ, na niĩ ndĩ Ngai wanyu, ũguo nĩguo Mwathani Jehova ekuuga.’”
And yee my sheepe, the sheepe of my pasture are men, and I am your God, saith the Lord God.
