1 Okwu nke Onyenwe anyị bịakwutere m,
And the word of Jehovah came to me, saying:
2 “Nwa nke mmadụ, gwa Jerusalem okwu mee ka ọ mara banyere ndụ ya niile rụrụ arụ
Son of man, cause Jerusalem to know her abominations,
3 sị ya, ‘Ihe ndị a ka Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị na-agwa Jerusalem: Ịpụta ụwa gị na ọmụmụ gị bụ nʼala ndị Kenan; nna gị bụ onye Amọrị, nne gị bụ onye Het.
and say, Thus saith the Lord Jehovah to Jerusalem: Thine origin and thy nativity were of the land of Canaan. Thy father was an Amorite, and thy mother a Hittite.
4 Nʼụbọchị ahụ a mụrụ gị, ebeghị otubo gị, ọ dịghị onye lekọtara gị maọbụ jiri mmiri saa gị ahụ ị sachapụ gị unyi maọbụ tee gị nnu, maọbụ jiri akwa kechie gị.
And as to thy nativity, in the day thou wast born thy navel was not cut, neither wast thou washed in water so as to be cleansed. Thou wast not sprinkled with salt, nor wrapped in swaddling-clothes.
5 Ọ dịghị onye nwere obi ebere nʼebe ị nọ. Ọ dịghị onye ihe banyere gị metụrụ nʼobi, ọ dịkwaghị onye lekọtara gị. Kama nʼụbọchị ahụ a mụrụ gị a tufuru gị nʼọhịa, nʼihi na-eledara gị anya.
No eye pitied thee, to do to thee any of these things, to have compassion upon thee; but thou wast cast out into the open field, so as to loathe thyself, on the day thou wast born.
6 “‘Ma mgbe m si nʼebe ahụ ị tọgbọ na-agafe, ahụrụ m gị ka i chịlịri ụkwụ gị, ọbara jukwara gị ahụ, dịka ị dina nʼime ọbara gị. Nʼoge ahụ, ihe pụrụ m nʼọnụ bụ, “Dị ndụ.”
And when I passed by thee, and saw thee in danger of being trodden under foot in thy blood, I said to thee when thou wast in thy blood, Live! yea, I said to thee when thou wast in thy blood, Live!
7 Emere m ka ị too dịka osisi na-eto eto nʼime ọhịa. I tolitere, too ogologo ma tozuo oke na nwanyị, ị kpụrụ ara, agịrị isi gị pukwara, ma gị onwe gị gba ọtọ.
I caused thee to increase like the plant of the field, and thou didst grow, and become tall, and didst attain to distinguished charms. Thy breasts swelled, and thy hair grew, whereas thou wast naked and bare.
8 “‘Emesịa, a gafere m nʼakụkụ gị, mgbe m lere gị anya ahụrụ m na i tozuola onye mmadụ ga-ahụ nʼanya. A gbasapụrụ m akụkụ akwa m nʼahụ gị, jiri ya kpuchie ọtọ gị. Aṅụrụ m gị iyi, mụ na gị gbara ndụ, ị ghọkwara nke m. Ka Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị kwupụtara.
And when I passed by thee, and saw thee, behold, it was thy time, the time of love. And I spread my skirt over thee and covered thy nakedness; and I swore to thee, and entered into covenant with thee, and thou becamest mine.
9 “‘Eji m mmiri saa gị ahụ, sachapụ ọbara dị gị nʼahụ, teekwa gị mmanụ.
Then I washed thee with water, yea, I thoroughly washed away thy blood from thee, and I anointed thee with oil.
10 Enyere m gị akwa ọcha na uwe a kpara nke ọma, nke i ji kpuchie ahụ gị. Nyekwa gị akpụkpọụkwụ e ji ezi akpụkpọ kwaa, jirikwa ezi akwa ọcha na uwe ndị dị oke ọnụ kpuchie gị.
I clothed thee also with broidered work, and gave thee shoes of seal's skin, and wrapped thee about with fine linen, and covered thee with silk.
11 Eyinyere m gị ihe ịchọ mma, tinye ọlaaka nʼaka gị, nakwa ọlaolu nʼolu gị.
And I decked thee with ornaments, and put bracelets upon thy hands, and a chain upon thy neck.
12 Etinyekwara m gị ọla nʼimi, tinye gị ọlantị abụọ na ntị gị, na okpueze mara mma nʼisi gị.
And I put a jewel in thy nostril, and ear-rings in thine ears, and a beautiful crown upon thy head.
13 E ji ihe ịchọ mma ọlaọcha na ọlaedo chọọ gị mma. Uwe gị bụkwa uwe ezi akwa ọcha, uwe dị oke ọnụ, na uwe a kpara nke ọma. Nri ị na-eri bụ ụtụ ọka a yọchaziri nke ọma, na mmanụ aṅụ, na mmanụ oliv. Mma gị pụtaziri ihe nke ọma, ị ruo ogo ịbụ eze nwanyị.
Thus wast thou adorned with gold and silver, and thy raiment was of fine linen, and silk, and broidered work. Fine flour and honey and oil didst thou eat; and thou wast exceedingly beautiful, and didst prosper so as to become a queen.
14 Aha gị dara ụda nke ukwuu nʼetiti mba dị iche iche nʼihi mma gị, nke zuruoke site nʼebube ahụ bụ nke m tụkwasịrị gị. Otu a ka Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị kwupụtara.
And thy renown went forth among the nations for thy beauty; for it was perfect through my comeliness, which I had put upon thee, saith the Lord Jehovah.
15 “‘Ma ị tụkwasịrị mma gị obi, jiri nʼihi na a mara aha gị ghọọ onye akwụna. I wekwaara onwe gị nye nwoke ọbụla gabigara mee ka mma gị bụrụ nke ya.
But thou didst trust in thy beauty, and didst play the harlot because of thy renown, and didst lavish thy fornications on every one that passed by; his was it.
16 Ị were uwe gị ụfọdụ, meere onwe gị ebe dị iche iche dị elu nke tụrụ agwa, ebe doziri ihe ndina ịkwa iko gị. Ihe dị otu a emetụbeghị mbụ, ha ekwesịkwaghị ime mgbe ọbụla.
And of thy garments thou didst take, and didst make thee high places, spread with divers colors, and didst play the harlot thereon, the like things to which shall not come to pass, neither shall they be.
17 Ị chịrị ọlaọcha na ọlaedo ndị ahụ mara mma, bụ nke m nyere gị, were ha kpụọrọ onwe gị oyiyi nwoke dị iche iche, ndị ị na-akpọ isiala nye. Nʼụzọ dị otu a ka gị na ha si na-akwakọ iko.
Thou didst take also thy fair jewels of my gold and my silver, which I gave thee, and didst make to thyself images of men, and didst commit fornication with them;
18 Uwe ọma ahụ a kpara akpa ka i ji kpuchie ha. Mmanụ m na ụda m na-esi isi ụtọ ka ị chere nʼihu ha dịka onyinye.
and thou didst take thy broidered garments and cover them; and thou didst set mine oil and mine incense before them.
19 Ọzọkwa, ụtụ ọka ọma, mmanụ oliv na mmanụ aṅụ, nri ndị m nyere gị ka i rie, ka i ji chụọ aja na-esi isi ụtọ nʼihu ha. Otu a ka o si dị, ka Onyenwe anyị Onyenwe anyị kwupụtara.
My food also, which I gave thee, fine flour and oil and honey, wherewith I fed thee, thou didst set it before them with a sweet savor; even thus it was, saith the Lord Jehovah.
20 “‘Ụmụ niile ị mụtaara m, nwoke na nwanyị, ka i ji chụọrọ arụsị gị aja ka ha rie. Ọ bụ na ịgba akwụna gị ezughịrị gị?
Moreover thou didst take thy sons and thy daughters, whom thou didst bear to me, and these didst thou sacrifice to them to be devoured. Was it not enough for thee to commit fornication,
21 Ma i gburu ụmụ m, jiri ha chụọ aja nye arụsị!
that thou didst slay my children, and deliver them up to cause them to pass through the fire to them?
22 Nʼoge ndị a niile ị na-akwa iko, na-eme ihe arụ ndị a niile, o metụbeghị gị nʼobi ka i cheta ụbọchị niile ndị ahụ ị bụ nwantakịrị, mgbe ị nọ na-agba ọtọ, mgbe ọbara jupụtara gị nʼahụ.
And in all thine abominations and thy fornications, thou didst not remember the days of thy youth, when thou wast naked and bare, and in danger of being trampled under foot in thy blood.
23 “‘Ahụhụ, ahụhụ, ga-adịrị gị, ka Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị kwubiri. Tinyekwara ajọ omume gị niile,
And it came to pass, after all thy wickedness, (woe, woe to thee! saith the Lord Jehovah, )
24 i wuuru arụsị gị ụlọ ebe ịkwa iko, wuokwa ụlọ arụsị ndị ọzọ nʼakụkụ okporoụzọ niile.
that thou didst build for thee an arched place, and make thee a high place in every street;
25 I wuuru onwe gị ebe ịchụ aja e wuliri elu dị iche iche nʼisi ụzọ niile, si otu a merụọ mma gị. Nʼebe ahụ ka ị na-anọ na-emeghere onye ọbụla gafetara ụkwụ gị abụọ, mee ka ịkwa iko gị na-amụbanye.
at every head of the way didst thou build thy high place, and didst make thy beauty to be abhorred, and didst open thy feet to every one that passed by, and didst multiply thy fornications.
26 Ị kwasoro ndị Ijipt bụ ndị agbataobi gị iko, ndị anụahụ ha dị ukwuu. I si otu a mee ka iwe dị ukwuu wee m megide ịkwa iko gị nke na-aba ụba.
Thou hast also committed fornication with the Egyptians, thy neighbors, having great members, and hast multiplied thy fornications to provoke me to anger.
27 Nʼihi ya, esetipụrụ m aka megide gị, e webilatara m oke ala gị ka ọ dị ntakịrị; ewere m gị nyefee oke ọchịchọ nke ndị iro gị, bụ ndị inyom Filistia, ndị ihere mere nʼihi omume gị niile ruru unyi.
Therefore, behold, I have stretched out my hand against thee, and have diminished thine allowance, and delivered thee to the will of them that hate thee, the daughters of the Philistines, who are ashamed of thy lewd way.
28 Gị na ndị Asịrịa akwaala iko, nʼihi na afọ adịghị eju gị. Ọ bụladị mgbe nke a gasịrị, ị bụkwa onwe na-enweghị afọ ojuju.
Thou hast also committed fornication with the Assyrians, because thou wast insatiable; yea, thou hast played the harlot with them, and yet couldst not be satisfied.
29 I mere ka ịkwa iko gị mụbaa ruo ala ndị Kaldịa, mba ahụ ịzụ ahịa doro anya. Ma ọbụladị na nke a afọ ejughịkwa gị.
Thou hast also multiplied thy fornication with the land of Canaan, even to Chaldaea; and yet wast thou not satisfied therewith.
30 “‘Iwe m dị ọkụ megide gị, otu a ka Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị kwupụtara. Mgbe ị na-eme ihe ndị a, ị na-eme ha nnọọ dị ka onye akwụna nke ihere adịghị eme.
How faint was thy heart, saith the Lord Jehovah, that thou didst all those things which an imperious whorish wife doeth,
31 Mgbe ị rụrụ ụlọ arụsị nʼisi ụzọ niile, wuokwa ụlọ ịkwa iko gị na mbara ụzọ niile, i meghị ya dịka akwụna, nʼihi na ị jụrụ ịnara ndị gị na ha kwara iko ego ọbụla.
in that thou didst build thine arched place at the head of every way, and make thy high place in every street! Thou wast not like a harlot, who scoffeth at her hire,
32 “‘Nʼezie, ị bụ nwanyị na-akwa iko ma ị nọ na di, onye na-anabata ndị ikom ọzọ karịa di ya!
but as an adulterous wife, that taketh strangers instead of her husband.
33 Ndị akwụna niile na-anata onyinye, ma gị onwe gị na-enye ndị ikom niile hụrụ gị nʼanya onyinye, inye ha ngarị ka ha bịakwute gị site nʼebe niile bịakwute gị nʼihi ịgba akwụna gị.
To all women that commit fornication men give a reward; but thou gavest thy gifts to all thy lovers, and hiredst them to come to thee from every side to commit fornication with thee.
34 Nʼihi ya, ị dị iche nʼetiti ndị inyom ndị ọzọ nʼụdị ịgba akwụna gị, o nweghị onye na-agbaso gị na-arịọ gị maka ịkwaso gị iko. Ị kwụrụ ụgwọ ma o nweghị ụgwọ a kwụrụ gị, nʼụzọ dị otu a ị dị iche.
Thou wast the reverse of other women in thy fornications. None followed after thee to commit fornication, but thou gavest the reward, and no reward was given thee, —therefore thou wast the reverse.
35 “‘Nʼihi nke a, gị nwanyị akwụna, nụrụ okwu Onyenwe anyị!
Wherefore, O harlot, hear the word of Jehovah!
36 Nke a bụ ihe Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị kwuru, Nʼihi na ị wụpụrụ agụụ nke anụ ahụ gị, kpugheekwa ọtọ gị nʼịkwa iko gị nke gị na ndị ị hụrụ nʼanya na-akwa, na nʼihi arụsị gị niile rụrụ arụ, nakwa nʼihi na ị nyere ha ọbara ụmụ gị,
Thus saith the Lord Jehovah: Because thy treasure was poured out, and thy nakedness discovered for fornication before thy lovers, and all thine abominable idols, and because of the blood of thy children, which thou didst give to them,
37 nʼihi ya, aga m achịkọta ndị niile bụ ndị ahụ niile ị hụrụ nʼanya, ndị gị na ha na-enwe obi ụtọ, ndị ị hụrụ nʼanya, ma ndị ị kpọrọ asị. Aga m achịkọta ha site gburugburu gị imegide gị, gbaa gị ọtọ nʼihu ha, ka ha hụ ọtọ gị niile.
therefore, behold, I will gather all thy lovers, to whom thou wast pleasing, all them that thou hast loved, with all them that thou hast hated, I will gather them against thee round about, and will uncover thy nakedness to them, that they may see all thy nakedness.
38 Aga m ata gị ahụhụ a na-ata ndị inyom na-akwa iko, na ndị inyom na-egbu mmadụ. Aga m eme ka ịbọ ọbọ ọbara nke ọnụma m, ya na ekworo m, bịakwasị gị.
And I will judge thee as women that break wedlock and shed blood are judged, and I will cause thy blood to flow in fury and jealousy.
39 Aga m enyefe gị nʼaka ndị ahụ ị hụrụ nʼanya, bụ ọtụtụ mba ahụ dị iche iche. Ha ga-ebibi gị, kwada ụlọ ịkwa iko gị, na ụlọ arụsị gị niile dị elu, gbaa gị ọtọ, narakwa gị uwe gị niile, na ihe ịchọ mma gị niile, hapụ gị ka ihere mee gị.
And I will give thee into their hand, and they shall throw down thine arched place, and break down thy high places. They shall also strip thee of thy clothes, and leave thee naked and bare.
40 Ha ga-akpọta igwe mmadụ ga-emegide gị, ndị ga-atụ gị nkume, jirikwa mma agha ha bọkasịa gị.
They shall also bring up a company against thee, and they shall stone thee with stones, and thrust thee through with their swords;
41 Ha ga-agba ụlọ gị ọkụ ma takwaa gị ahụhụ nʼihu ọtụtụ ndị inyom. Aga m ahụkwa na ị kwụsịrị ịkwa iko ị na-akwa, ị ga-akwụsịkwa ịkwụ ụgwọ ahụ ị na-akwụ ndị iko gị.
and they shall burn thine houses with fire, and execute judgments upon thee in the sight of many women; and I will cause thee to cease from playing the harlot, and thou shalt give hire no more.
42 Mgbe ahụ, oke iwe m megide gị ga-adajụ, ekworo m ga-esite nʼebe ị nọ gabiga. Aga m anọ nwayọọ gharakwa iwe iwe ọzọ.
So will I make my fury toward thee to rest, and my jealousy shall depart from thee; and I will be quiet, and will be no more angry.
43 “‘Ebe ọ bụ na ị chetaghị ụbọchị ndị ahụ niile, mgbe ị dị nʼagbọghọbịa, ma i ji ihe ọjọọ ndị a niile ị na-eme kpasuo m iwe. Ya mere, aghaghị m ịkwụghachi gị dịka mmehie gị si dị. Ọ bụ na i meghị omume ndị a rụrụ arụ, tinyekwara mmehie agụụ ịkwa iko? Ọ bụ ihe Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị kwubiri.
Because thou hast not remembered the days of thy youth, but hast raged against me in all these things, therefore I also will recompense thy way upon thy head, saith the Lord Jehovah, so that thou shalt not commit this wickedness in addition to all thy abominations.
44 “‘Lee, onye ọbụla na-atụ ilu, ga-atụ ilu a banyere gị sị, “Otu ọ dị nne ka ọ dị nwa ya nwanyị.”
Behold, all they that use proverbs shall utter this proverb concerning thee: “As the mother, so the daughter.”
45 Nʼezie, ị dị ka nne gị, nʼihi na nne gị kpọrọ di ya na ụmụ ya asị. Ị dịkwa ka ụmụnne gị ndị inyom. Ha na-akpọ di ha na ụmụ ha asị. Nʼezie, nne gị bụ onye Het, nna gị bụkwa onye Amọrị.
Thou art the daughter of thy mother, that loathed her husband and her children; and thou art the sister of thy sisters, that loathed their husbands and their children; your mother was a Hittite, and your father an Amorite.
46 Ada nne gị bụ Sameria, ya na ụmụ ya bi nʼugwu. Nwanne gị nwanyị nke nta bụ Sọdọm, ya na ụmụ ya bi nʼala ndịda.
And thine elder sister is Samaria, with her daughters, that dwelleth at thy left hand; and thy younger sister, that dwelleth at thy right hand, is Sodom, with her daughters.
47 Ọ bụghị naanị na ị soro ụzọ ha niile, ị ṅomiri omume ibi ndụ arụ ha niile, kama dịka a ga-asị na nke a bụ ihe nta, nʼụzọ gị niile, ị ghọrọ onye rụrụ arụ karịa ha.
Yet thou hast not walked in their ways, nor done according to their abominations: that was disdained by you, as a very little thing; thou hast been more corrupt than they in all thy ways.
48 Ebe m na-adị ndụ, ka Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị kwuru, Sọdọm na ụmụ ya ndị inyom emetụbeghị ihe ndị a gị na ụmụ gị ndị inyom mere.
As I live, saith the Lord Jehovah, Sodom, thy sister, hath not done, she nor her daughters, as thou hast done, thou and thy daughters.
49 “‘Mmehie nwanne gị nwanyị Sọdọm bụ nganga, na umengwụ, na oke oriri. Ha jụrụ inyere ndị nọ na mkpa, na ndị agụụ na-agụ nọ nʼọnụ ụzọ ha aka.
Behold, this was the iniquity of Sodom, thy sister: in pride, superabundance, and careless ease did she live, she and her daughters, and the hand of the poor and needy she did not strengthen;
50 Ha dị elu nʼobi ha, mee ihe arụ nʼihu m. Nʼihi ya, esitere m nʼihu m wezuga ha dịka ị hụrụ.
and they were haughty, and committed abomination before me; therefore I took them away when I saw it.
51 Ọ bụladị Sameria emerughị ọkara mmehie niile i mere. I meela ihe arụ bara ụba karịa nke ha mere, si otu a gụọ ụmụnne gị ndị inyom ka ndị ezi omume site nʼihe ndị a niile nke ị mere.
Neither hath Samaria committed half of thy sins; but thou hast multiplied thine abominations more than they, and hast justified thy sisters in all thine abominations which thou hast done.
52 Gị onwe gị buru ihe ihere gị, nʼihi na omume gị ekpepụtala ụmụnne gị ndị inyom. Nʼihi na mmehie gị dị njọ, dịkwa ukwuu karịa nke ha, ha bụ ndị a gụrụ na ndị ezi omume karịa gị. Ya mere, ka ihere mee gị, burukwa ọnọdụ ihere gị, nʼihi na ị meela ka a gụọ ụmụnne gị ndị inyom dịka ndị ezi omume.
Now, therefore, bear thou thy shame, to which thou hast condemned thy sisters, since by thy sins which thou hast committed, more abominable than they, they are more righteous than thou. Yea, be thou confounded and bear thy shame, in that thou hast justified thy sisters.
53 “‘Ma otu ọ dị, aga m eme ka ọganihu nke Sọdọm na ụmụ ya ndị inyom, na ọganihu nke Sameria na ụmụ ya ndị inyom, na ọganihu nke gị dịghachikwa nʼetiti ha:
Yet I will bring them back from their captivity, even Sodom and her daughters from their captivity, and Samaria and her daughters from their captivity; thee also will I bring back from thy captivity in the midst of them;
54 Ka i nwee ike bụrụ ọnọdụ ihere gị, ka ihere mekwa gị nʼihi ihe niile i mere, nʼịkasị ha obi.
that thou mayst bear thy shame, and mayst be confounded on account of all which thou hast done, in that thou art a comfort to them.
55 Ọzọ ndị ụmụnne gị nwanyị bụ Sọdọm na Sameria na ụmụ ha ndị inyom ga-alọta nʼọnọdụ mbụ ha; gị na ụmụ gị ndị inyom ga-alọtakwa nʼọnọdụ mbụ unu.
And thy sisters, Sodom and her daughters, shall return to their former estate, and Samaria and her daughters shall return to their former estate, and thou and thy daughters shall return to your former estate.
56 Ma ị pụghị emeghe ọnụ gị kpọọ aha nwanne gị nwanyị bụ Sọdọm nʼụbọchị nganga gị,
And yet Sodom, thy sister, was not mentioned by thy mouth in the day of thy pride

before thy wickedness was discovered, as in the time of thy reproach from the daughters of Syria, and from all that were round about her, and from the daughters of the Philistines, who despised thee round about.
58 Ị ga-anata ụgwọ ọrụ nke ịkwa iko gị, na ihe arụ ndị ọzọ ị na-eme. Otu a ka Onyenwe anyị kwubiri ya.
Thy wickedness and thine abominations must thou now bear, saith the Lord Jehovah.
59 “‘Nke a bụ ihe Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị sịrị, Aga m akwụghachi gị dịka omume gị si dị, nʼihi na ị ledara iyi ahụ ị ṅụrụ anya site nʼimebi ọgbụgba ndụ ahụ.
For thus saith the Lord Jehovah: I will do to thee as thou hast done, who hast despised the oath and hast broken the covenant.
60 Ma otu ọbụla o si dị, aga m edebezu nkwa ahụ niile m kwere gị mgbe ị dị na nwantakịrị. Aga m eme ka ọgbụgba ndụ ahụ dị nʼetiti mụ na gị guzosie ike ruo ebighị ebi.
But I will remember my covenant with thee in the days of thy youth, and I will establish with thee an everlasting covenant.

Then shalt thou remember thy ways, and be ashamed, when thou shalt receive thy sisters, thine elder and thy younger, and I shall give them to thee for daughters, but not by thy observance of thy covenant.
62 Aga m eme ka ọgbụgba ndụ mụ na gị guzosie ike, ị ga-amatakwa na mụ onwe m bụ Onyenwe anyị.
But I will establish my covenant with thee, and thou shalt know that I am Jehovah;

that thou mayst remember and be confounded, and not open thy mouth any more for shame, when I forgive thee all which thou hast done, saith the Lord Jehovah.
