< Ezekieli 38 >

1 Na rĩrĩ, kiugo kĩa Jehova nĩkĩanginyĩrĩire, ngĩĩrwo atĩrĩ:
And the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
2 “Mũrũ wa mũndũ, erekeria ũthiũ waku harĩ Gogu wa kũu bũrũri wa Magogu, ũcio mũnene wa anene a Mesheki na Tubali; mũrathĩre ũhoro wa kũmũũkĩrĩra,
“Son of man, set your face against Gog of the land of Magog, the chief prince of Meshech and Tubal. Prophesy against him
3 ũmwĩre atĩrĩ: ‘Mwathani Jehova ekuuga ũũ: Nĩngũgũũkĩrĩra, wee Gogu, mũnene wa anene a Mesheki na Tubali.
and declare that this is what the Lord GOD says: Behold, I am against you, O Gog, chief prince of Meshech and Tubal.
4 Nĩngakũhũgũra, ngwĩkĩre ndwano thĩa-inĩ ciaku, na ngũrute na nja hamwe na mbũtũ ciaku ciothe cia ita: nĩcio mbarathi ciaku, na andũ aku arĩa mathiiaga mahaicĩte mbarathi meeohete indo cia mbaara, na kĩrĩndĩ kĩnene kĩrĩ na ngo iria nene na iria nini, othe makĩhiũragia hiũ ciao cia njora.
I will turn you around, put hooks in your jaws, and bring you out with all your army—your horses, your horsemen in full armor, and a great company armed with shields and bucklers, all brandishing their swords.
5 Nao andũ a Perisia, na Kushi, na Putu magaakorwo hamwe nao, othe manyiitĩte ngo na magekĩra ngũbia cia kĩgera,
Persia, Cush, and Put will accompany them, all with shields and helmets,
6 o na Gomeri na thigari ciakuo ciothe, o na andũ a Bethi Togarima moimĩte kũraya mwena wa gathigathini marĩ na mbũtũ cia ita ciakuo ciothe, o ndũrĩrĩ icio nyingĩ irĩ hamwe nawe.
as well as Gomer with all its troops, and Beth-togarmah from the far north with all its troops—the many nations with you.
7 “‘Wĩthagathage; wĩhaarĩrie, wee mwene hamwe na kĩrĩndĩ kĩrĩa gĩothe gĩgũthiũrũrũkĩirie, nawe ũgĩathe.
Get ready; prepare yourself, you and all your company gathered around you; you will be their guard.
8 Thuutha wa matukũ maingĩ, nĩmũgetwo mũthiĩ ita-inĩ. Mĩaka-inĩ ya thuutha nĩmũgatharĩkĩra bũrũri ũgaakorwo ũhonoketio kuuma mbaara-inĩ, ũrĩa andũ aguo maacookanĩrĩirio kuuma ndũrĩrĩ-inĩ nyingĩ magĩtwarwo irĩma-inĩ icio cia bũrũri wa Isiraeli, kũrĩa gũtũũrĩte gũkirĩte ihooru. Acio marutĩtwo ndũrĩrĩ-inĩ icio, na rĩu acio othe maikaraga na thayũ.
After a long time you will be summoned. In the latter years you will enter a land that has recovered from war, whose people were gathered from many nations to the mountains of Israel, which had long been desolate. They had been brought out from the nations, and all now dwell securely.
9 Wee hamwe na mbũtũ ciaku ciothe cia ita na ndũrĩrĩ icio nyingĩ mũrĩ nacio nĩmũkambata, mũmaguthũkĩre ta kĩhuhũkanio; mũgaatuĩka ta itu rĩhumbĩrĩte bũrũri.
You and all your troops, and many peoples with you will go up, advancing like a thunderstorm; you will be like a cloud covering the land.
10 “‘Mwathani Jehova ekuuga ũũ: Mũthenya ũcio wee nĩũkagĩa na meciiria, nawe nĩũgathugunda ũndũ mũũru.
This is what the Lord GOD says: On that day, thoughts will arise in your mind, and you will devise an evil plan.
11 Nawe nĩũkoiga atĩrĩ, “Nĩngũtharĩkĩra bũrũri ũrĩa wa matũũra matarĩ mairigĩre; nĩngũhithũkĩra andũ marĩ na thayũ na matarekũũa ũndũ, arĩa othe maikaraga matũũra matarĩ mairigĩre, na matarĩ ihingo na mĩgĩĩko.
You will say, ‘I will go up against a land of unwalled villages; I will come against a tranquil people who dwell securely, all of them living without walls or bars or gates—
12 Nĩngũtaha, na ndunyane, o na njũkĩrĩre matũũra marĩa maanangĩtwo na magacooka gũtũũrwo, na njũkĩrĩre andũ arĩa marĩ kuo arĩa monganĩtio kuuma ndũrĩrĩ-inĩ, andũ marĩ na ũtonga wa mahiũ, na wa indo, nao matũũrĩte gatagatĩ ka bũrũri ũcio.”
in order to seize the spoil and carry off the plunder, to turn a hand against the desolate places now inhabited and against a people gathered from the nations, who have acquired livestock and possessions and who live at the center of the land.’
13 Andũ a Sheba, na a Dedani, na onjorithia a Tarishishi na matũũra mothe makuo magaakũũria atĩrĩ, “Ũũkĩte gũtaha indo? Ũnganĩtie kĩrĩndĩ gĩaku mũũke mũtunyane indo, na mũkuue betha na thahabu, na mũkuue mahiũ na indo, o na mũtahe indo nyingĩ mũno?”’
Sheba and Dedan and the merchants of Tarshish with all its villages will ask, ‘Have you come to capture the plunder? Have you assembled your hordes to carry away loot, to make off with silver and gold, to take cattle and goods, to seize great spoil?’
14 “Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, mũrũ wa mũndũ, ratha ũhoro wĩre Gogu atĩrĩ: ‘Mwathani Jehova ekuuga ũũ: Ihinda rĩu, rĩrĩa andũ akwa Isiraeli magaakorwo maikarĩte marĩ na thayũ-rĩ, githĩ o nawe ndũkarĩmenya?
Therefore prophesy, son of man, and tell Gog that this is what the Lord GOD says: On that day when My people Israel are dwelling securely, will you not take notice of this?
15 Nĩũkoima gwaku kũndũ kũraya, o kũu mwena wa gathigathini, wee mũrĩ hamwe na ndũrĩrĩ nyingĩ, othe mahaicĩte mbarathi, marĩ kĩrĩndĩ kĩingĩ, mbũtũ ya ita ĩrĩ hinya.
And you will come from your place out of the far north—you and many peoples with you, all riding horses—a mighty horde, a huge army.
16 Nĩũgathiĩ na mbere na gũũkĩrĩra andũ akwa a Isiraeli ũtariĩ ta itu rĩhumbĩrĩte bũrũri. Matukũ-inĩ marĩa magooka, wee Gogu-rĩ, nĩngagũtwara ũgookĩrĩre bũrũri wakwa, nĩguo ndũrĩrĩ ikaamenya rĩrĩa ngeyonania kũhĩtũkĩra harĩwe atĩ ndĩ mũtheru maitho-inĩ mao.
You will advance against My people Israel like a cloud covering the land. It will happen in the latter days, O Gog, that I will bring you against My land, so that the nations may know Me when I show Myself holy in you before their eyes.
17 “‘Mwathani Jehova ekuuga ũũ: Githĩ wee tiwe ndaaririe ũhoro waku matukũ-inĩ ma mbere, ngĩaria na anabii a Isiraeli, o acio ndungata ciakwa? Ihinda-inĩ rĩu nĩmarathire ũhoro mĩaka mĩingĩ, makiuga atĩ nĩngagũtwara ũkamookĩrĩre.
This is what the Lord GOD says: Are you the one of whom I have spoken in former days through My servants, the prophets of Israel, who in those times prophesied for years that I would bring you against them?
18 Ũũ nĩguo gũkaahaana ihinda-inĩ rĩu: Rĩrĩa Gogu agaatharĩkĩra bũrũri wa Isiraeli, marakara makwa mahiũ nĩmakarahũrwo, ũguo nĩguo Mwathani Jehova ekuuga.
Now on that day when Gog comes against the land of Israel, declares the Lord GOD, My wrath will flare up.
19 Nguuga ndĩ na kĩyo kĩnene na mangʼũrĩ mahiũ ta mwaki atĩ ihinda rĩu nĩgũkagĩa gĩthingithia kĩnene kũu bũrũri-inĩ wa Isiraeli.
In My zeal and fiery rage I proclaim that on that day there will be a great earthquake in the land of Israel.
20 Thamaki cia iria-inĩ, na nyoni cia rĩera-inĩ, na nyamũ cia gĩthaka, na kanyamũ o gothe karĩa gathiiagĩra thĩ, o na andũ othe arĩa marĩ gũkũ thĩ nĩmakainaina maanyona. Irĩma nĩikangʼaũranio, na hurũrũka nĩikaragana, o na rũthingo o ruothe nĩrũkamomoka.
The fish of the sea, the birds of the air, the beasts of the field, every creature that crawls upon the ground, and all mankind on the face of the earth will tremble at My presence. The mountains will be thrown down, the cliffs will collapse, and every wall will fall to the ground.
21 Nĩngarehithia rũhiũ rwa njora rũũkĩrĩre Gogu kũu irĩma-inĩ ciakwa ciothe, ũguo nĩguo Mwathani Jehova ekuuga. Naruo rũhiũ rwa njora rwa o mũndũ nĩrũgookĩrĩra mũrũ wa ithe.
And I will summon a sword against Gog on all My mountains, declares the Lord GOD, and every man’s sword will be against his brother.
22 Nĩngatuĩra Gogu ciira, ndĩmũrehere mũthiro na ũiti wa thakame; nĩngoiria mbura nene mũno, ndĩmuurĩrie we mwene na thigari ciake, o na ndũrĩrĩ icio nyingĩ irĩ hamwe nake, ndĩmoirĩrie mbura ya mbembe na ũbiriti.
I will execute judgment upon him with plague and bloodshed. I will pour out torrents of rain, hailstones, fire, and sulfur on him and on his troops and on the many nations with him.
23 Ũguo nĩguo ngoonania ũnene o na ũtheru wakwa, na ndũme menyeke maitho-inĩ ma ndũrĩrĩ nyingĩ. Hĩndĩ ĩyo nĩmakamenya atĩ niĩ nĩ niĩ Jehova.’
I will magnify and sanctify Myself, and will reveal Myself in the sight of many nations. Then they will know that I am the LORD.
