Emọs 9
1 Ahụrụ m Onyenwe anyị ka ọ guzo nʼakụkụ ebe ịchụ aja, ọ sịrị, “Tie ọnụ ogidi ndị a ihe, ruo mgbe mbata ọnụ ụzọ ha niile mara jijiji. Tipịasịa ha nʼisi mmadụ niile; aga m ejikwa mma agha gbuo ndị niile fọdụrụ. Ọ dịghị onye ga-agbapụ, ọ dịkwaghị onye ga-ewezuga onwe ya.
Then I saw the Lord standing beside the altar, and he said: Strike the tops of the Temple pillars so that the foundations shake, and shatter them on the heads of all the people below. Those who survive I will kill by the sword. None of them will escape, not a single one.
2 Ọ bụrụ na ha egwuo ala ruo nʼala mmụọ, site nʼebe ahụ ka aka m ga-esi dọlie ha, ọ bụrụkwa na ha arịgoruo ime eluigwe, site nʼebe ahụ ka m ga-esi wedata ha nʼala. (Sheol h7585)
Even if they dig down into Sheol, I will catch them and pull them up. Even if they climb up to heaven, I will bring them down. (Sheol h7585)
3 Ọ bụrụkwa na ha ezoo onwe ha nʼelu Kamel nʼebe ahụ ka m ga-esi chọpụta ha, kpụrụ ha, a sịkwa na ha ezoo onwe ha nʼala oke osimiri, nʼebe ahụ ka m ga-enye ajụala nke mmiri iwu ka ọ taa ha.
Even if they hide themselves at the top of Mount Carmel, I will search for them and catch them. Even if they hide from me at the bottom of the sea, I will command the sea serpent to bite them.
4 Ọ bụrụ na a dọta ha nʼagha mee ka ha gaa biri nʼala ndị mba ọzọ, nʼebe ahụ aga m enye mma agha iwu ka o gbuo ha. “Aga m elekwasị ha anya m abụọ nʼihi ime ha ihe ọjọọ, ọ bụghị ihe ọma.”
Even if they are driven into exile by their enemies, I will order them put to death by the sword. I will watch them carefully—and for evil, not for good.
5 Onyenwe anyị, Onyenwe anyị, Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile, onye na-emetụ ala aka mee ka ọ gbazee, ime ka ndị niile bi nʼala ruo ụjụ; ala ya niile bilie na-ebili dịka mmiri nke osimiri Naịl, nke na-emesịakwa dajụọ dịka mmiri Ijipt.
The Lord God of power touches the earth and it melts, and all who live there mourn. The earth rises up like the Nile river in flood, and then falls again.
6 Onye na-ewu ụlọ elu ya nʼeluigwe niile, na-eme ka ntọala ya dị nʼụwa. Onye na-akpọ mmiri nke osimiri oku, ma na-awụsa ha nʼala, aha ya bụ Onyenwe anyị.
The Lord builds his upper rooms in heaven, and places the foundations on the earth. He calls for the water of the seas, and pours it down as rain upon the earth—the Lord is his name!
7 “Ọ bụ na unu ndị Izrel adịghị ka ndị Kush nʼebe m nọ?” Otu a ka Onyenwe anyị kwupụtara. “Ọ bụ na-esighị m nʼala Ijipt kpọpụta Izrel, site na Kafto kpọpụta ndị Filistia, ma kpọpụtakwa ndị Aram site na Kia?
Aren't the Ethiopians as important to me as you, people of Israel? asks the Lord. Yes, I brought the Israelites out of the land of Egypt, but I also brought the Philistines from Caphtor, and the Syrians from Kir.
8 “Nʼezie, anya Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị dịkwasịrị nʼahụ alaeze ahụ nke na-emehie. Aghaghị m ịla ya nʼiyi, kpochapụ ya site nʼelu ụwa, naanị na m agaghị ebibicha ụlọ Jekọb kpamkpam.” Otu a ka Onyenwe anyị kwubiri.
Watch out! I'm watching this sinful kingdom. I will eradicate it from the face of the earth. Yet I will not completely destroy the descendants of Jacob.
9 “Ma lee, mụ onwe m gaje inye iwu, aga m ayọgharị ụlọ Izrel nʼetiti mba niile dịka e si ayọgharị ọka nʼime nyọ, ma ọ dịghị otu mkpụrụ ọka nʼime ya nke ga-ada nʼala.
See what I'm doing! I will give the command, and the people of Israel will be shaken among the nations like flour through a sieve, and nothing will fall to the ground.
10 Ma ndị mmehie ahụ niile nọ nʼetiti ndị m, ndị ahụ na-asị, ‘Mbibi agaghị erute anyị, anyị agaghị ezute ya, aghaghị ịnwụ site na mma agha.’
All the sinners of my people will be killed by the sword—all those who say, “Nothing bad is going to happen; no disaster will fall on us.”
11 “Nʼụbọchị ahụ, “aga m emekwa ka ụlọ ikwu Devid dara ada guzoziekwa. Aga m emezi akụkụ ya niile gbajiri agbaji, mee ka akụkụ ya niile dakpọsịrị adakpọsị guzozie dịka ọ dị na mbụ. Aga m ewugharịkwa ya, mee ka ọ dịrị ka ọ dị na mbụ.
On that day I will restore the fallen kingdom of David; I will repair the broken walls, I will rebuild the ruins, and I will make it as it was in days of old.
12 Ka ha nwee ike inweta ndị fọdụrụ nʼEdọm tinyere mba niile dị iche iche bụ nke a kpọkwasịrị aha m.” Otu a ka Onyenwe anyị onye ga-emezu ihe ndị a niile kwubiri ya.
And they will possess what is left of Edom and all the nations that were once mine, declares the Lord. He will make this happen.
13 “Ụbọchị ndị ahụ na-abịa, otu a ka Onyenwe anyị kwubiri, “Mgbe onye na-akọ ubi ga-agafe onye na-ewe ihe ubi, onye na-agha mkpụrụ ka onye na-azọcha mkpụrụ vaịnị ga-agafekwa. Mmanya ọhụrụ ga-esitekwa nʼelu ugwu na-atapụta, ọ ga-esitekwa nʼugwu nta niile na-asọpụta.
Look! The time is coming, says the Lord, when the reaper will overtake the plowman, and the one who treads the grapes will overtake the one who sows the seed. The mountains will drip with sweet wine, and flow from all the hills.
14 Aga m emekwa ka ndị m bụ Izrel site nʼobodo a dọtara ha nʼagha lọta. “Ha ga-ewugharị obodo niile tọgbọrọ nʼefu, birikwa nʼime ha. Ha ga-akụ ubi vaịnị a gbara ogige, ṅụọkwa mmanya si na ya. Ha ga-arụkwa ubi a gbara ogige, riekwa mkpụrụ si na ya.
I will bring my people back from captivity, and they will rebuild the ruined cities, and they shall live in them. They shall plant vineyards and drink their wine; they will plant gardens and eat the fruit they produce.
15 Aga m akụ Izrel nʼala ha. A gaghị ehopukwa ha ọzọ site nʼala ahụ bụ nke m nyere ha.” Ọ bụ ihe Onyenwe anyị Chineke unu kwuru.
I will plant them in their own land, and they shall never be uprooted again from the land I have given them, declares the Lord your God.
