< Ezekiyel 31 >
1 A shekara ta goma sha ɗaya, a wata na uku a rana ta farko, maganar Ubangiji ta zo mini cewa,
And it came to pass in the eleventh year, in the third month, on the first [day] of the month, the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
2 “Ɗan mutum, faɗa wa Fir’auna sarkin Masar da jama’arsa cewa, “‘Da wa za a kwatanta girmanka?
Son of man, say to Pharao king of Egypt, and to his multitude; To whom have you compared yourself in your haughtiness?
3 Ka dubi Assuriya, ta taɓa zama kamar al’ul a Lebanon da rassa masu kyau suna inuwartar da kurmi; ya yi tsayi ainun kansa ya kai cikin gizagizai.
Behold, the Assyrian was a cypress in Libanus, and was fair in shoots, and high in stature: his top reached to the midst of the clouds.
4 Ruwa ya sa ya yi girma, zurfafan maɓulɓulai sun sa ya yi tsayi; rafuffuka suna gudu kewaye da tushensa yana aika da rafuffukansa zuwa dukan itatuwan kurmi.
The water nourished him, the depth made him grow tall; she led her rivers round about his plants, and she sent forth her streams to all the trees of the field.
5 Saboda haka ya yi tsayi fiye da sauran itatuwan kurmi; rassansa suka ƙaru suka yi tsayi, suka bazu saboda yalwar ruwaye.
Therefore was his stature exalted above all the trees of the field, and his branches spread far by the help of much water.
6 Dukan tsuntsayen sararin sama suka yi sheƙa a rassansa, dukan namun jeji suka haihu a ƙarƙashin rassansa; dukan al’ummai suka zauna a inuwarsa.
All the birds of the sky made their nests in his boughs, and under his branches all the wild beasts of the field bred; the whole multitude of nations lived under his shadow.
7 Yana da girma a kyau, da dogayen rassansa da ya baza, gama saiwoyinsa sun nutse can ƙasa har cikin yalwar ruwaye.
And he was fair in his height by reason of the multitude of his branches: for his roots were amidst much water.
8 Al’ul a cikin lambun Allah ba su kai shi ba, balle itatuwan kasharina su kai rassansa, ko itatuwan durumi su kai rassansa, ko itace a lambun Allah ya kai kyansa.
And such cypresses [as this] were in the paradise of God; and there were no pines like his shoots, and there were no firs like his branches: no tree in the paradise of God was like him in his beauty,
9 Na sa ya yi kyau da yalwar rassa, abin ƙyashi na dukan itatuwan Eden a lambun Allah.
because of the multitude of his branches: and the trees of God's paradise of delight envied him.
10 “‘Saboda haka ga abin da Ubangiji Mai Iko Duka yana cewa domin ya yi tsayi, kansa kuma ya kai cikin gizagizai, kuma domin ya yi fariya saboda tsayinsa,
Therefore thus says the Lord; Because you are grown great, and have set your top in the midst of the clouds, and I saw when he was exalted;
11 na miƙa shi ga mai mulkin al’ummai, don yă sāka masa gwargwadon muguntarsa. Na jefar da shi a gefe,
therefore I delivered him into the hands of the prince of the nations, and he wrought his destruction.
12 kuma baƙi mafi mugunta na al’ummai suka sare shi suka bar shi. Rassansa sun fāɗi a kan duwatsun da suke cikin dukan kwaruruka; rassansa kuma sun kakkarye, sun fāɗi a cikin dukan magudanan ruwa na ƙasa. Dukan al’umman duniya suka fito daga ƙarƙashin inuwarsa suka bar shi.
And ravaging strangers from the nations have destroyed him, and have cast him down upon the mountains: his branches fell in all the valleys, and his boughs were broken in every field of the land; and all the people of the nations are gone down from their shelter, and have laid him low.
13 Dukan tsuntsaye sararin sama suka zauna a itacen da ya fāɗi, dukan namun jeji kuma suna cikin rassansa.
All the birds of the sky have settled on his fallen trunk, and all the wild beasts of the field came upon his boughs:
14 Saboda haka ba wani daga cikin itatuwan da suke kusa da ruwan da zai taɓa yin fariyar tsawonsa, har kawunansu su kai cikin gizagizai. Ba wani daga cikin itatuwan da ya sha ruwa sosai da zai taɓa yi wannan tsayi; duk an bashe su ga mutuwa, zuwa can ƙasa, a cikin matattu, tare da waɗanda suka gangara zuwa rami.
in order that none of the trees by the water should exalt themselves by reason of their size: whereas they set their top in the midst of the clouds, yet they continued not in their high state in their place, all that drank water, all were consigned to death, to the depth of the earth, in the midst of the children of men, with them that go down to the pit.
15 “‘Ga abin da Ubangiji Mai Iko Duka yana cewa a ranar da aka yi ƙasa da shi zuwa kabari na rufe zurfafa maɓulɓulai da makoki dominsa; na janye rafuffukansa, aka kuma hana yalwan ruwansa. Saboda shi na rufe Lebanon da baƙin ciki, dukan itatuwan kurmi suka bushe. (Sheol )
Thus says the Lord God; In the day wherein he went down to Hades, the deep mourned for him: and I stayed her floods, and restrained her abundance of water: and Libanus saddened for him, all the trees of the field fainted for him. (Sheol )
16 Na sa al’ummai suka yi rawar jiki da jin ƙarar fāɗuwarsa sa’ad da na yi ƙasa da shi zuwa kabari tare da waɗanda suka gangara rami. Sai dukan itatuwan Eden, zaɓaɓɓu da kuma mafi kyau na Lebanon, dukan itatuwan da aka yi musu banruwa, sun ta’azantu a ƙarƙashin ƙasa. (Sheol )
At the sound of his fall the nations quaked, when I brought him down to Hades with them that go down to the pit: and all the trees of Delight comforted him in the heart, and the choice of [plants] of Libanus, all that drink water. (Sheol )
17 Waɗanda suka zauna a inuwarsa, dukan masu tarayyarsa a cikin al’ummai, su ma sun gangara zuwa kabari tare da shi, sun haɗu da waɗanda aka kashe da takobi. (Sheol )
For they went down to hell with him among the slain with the sword; and his seed, [even] they that lived under his shadow, perished in the midst of their life. (Sheol )
18 “‘Da wa cikin itatuwan Eden za a kwatanta da kai cikin girma da daraja? Duk da haka kai ma, za a yi ƙasa da kai tare da itatuwan Eden zuwa ƙarƙashin ƙasa; za ka kwanta a cikin marasa kaciya, tare da waɗanda aka kashe da takobi. “‘Fir’auna ke nan da dukan jama’arsa, in ji Ubangiji Mai Iko Duka.’”
To whom are you compared? descend, and be you debased with the trees of paradise to the depth of the earth: you shall lie in the midst of the uncircumcised with them that are slain by the sword. Thus shall Pharao be, and the multitude of his host, says the Lord God.
