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.

I SAW the Lord standing beside the altar: and he said, Smite the chapiters, that the thresholds may shake: and break them in pieces on the head of all of them; and I will slay the last of them with the sword: there shall not one of them flee away, and there shall not one of them escape.

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)

Though they dig into hell, thence shall mine hand take them; and though they climb up to heaven, thence will I 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.

And though they hide themselves in the top of Carmel, I will search and take them out thence; and though they be hid from my sight in the bottom of the sea, thence will I command the serpent, and he shall 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.”

And though they go into captivity before their enemies, thence will I command the sword, and it shall slay them: and I will set mine eyes upon them for evil, and 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.

For the Lord, the GOD of hosts, [is] he that toucheth the land and it melteth, and all that dwell therein shall mourn; and it shall rise up wholly like the River; and shall sink again, like the River of Egypt;

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.

[it is] he that buildeth his chambers in the heaven, and hath founded his vault upon the earth; he that calleth for the waters of the sea and poureth them out upon the face of 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?

Are ye not as the children of the Ethiopians unto me, O children of Israel? saith the LORD. Have not I brought up Israel out of the land of Egypt, and 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.

Behold, the eyes of the Lord GOD are upon the sinful kingdom, and I will destroy it from off the face of the earth; saving that I will not utterly destroy the house of Jacob, saith the LORD.

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.

For, lo, I will command, and I will sift the house of Israel among all the nations, like as [corn] is sifted in a sieve, yet shall not the least grain fall upon the earth.

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 shall die by the sword, which say, The evil shall not overtake nor prevent 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.

In that day will I raise up the tabernacle of David that is fallen, and close up the breaches thereof; and I will raise up his ruins, and I will build it as in the 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.

that they may possess the remnant of Edom, and all the nations, which are called by my name, saith the LORD that doeth this.

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.

Behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that the plowman shall overtake the reaper, and the treader of grapes him that soweth seed; and the mountains shall drop sweet wine, and all the hills shall melt.

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.

And I will bring again the captivity of my people Israel, and they shall build the waste cities, and inhabit them; and they shall plant vineyards, and drink the wine thereof; they shall also make gardens, and eat the fruit of them.

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.

And I will plant them upon their land, and they shall no more be plucked up out of their land which I have given them, saith the LORD thy God.
