< Izikiel 25 >
1 Okwu Onyenwe anyị ruru m ntị, sị,
And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
2 “Nwa nke mmadụ, chee ihu gị nʼala ụmụ Amọn buo amụma megide ha.
“Son of man, set your face against the sons of Ammon, and you shall prophesy about them.
3 Gwa ndị Amọn, ‘Nụrụnụ okwu nke Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị. Otu a ka Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị kwuru: Nʼihi na ị sịrị “Aha!” megide ebe nsọ m mgbe e merụrụ ya na megide ala Izrel, mgbe e mere ka ọ tọgbọrọ nʼefu, na mgbe a dọtara ndị Juda nʼagha duru ha gaa mba ọzọ dịka ohu,
And you shall say to the sons of Ammon: Listen to the word of the Lord God: Thus says the Lord God: Because you have said, ‘Well, well!’ over my sanctuary, when it was profaned, and over the land of Israel, when it was desolated, and over the house of Judah, when they were led into captivity,
4 nʼihi ya, aga m ewere gị nyefee nʼaka ndị si nʼọwụwa anyanwụ pụta, ka ị bụrụ ihe nketa ha. Ha ga-ewu ebe obibi nʼetiti gị, rie mkpụrụ ubi gị, ṅụọkwa mmiri ara ehi gị.
therefore, I will deliver you to the sons of the East, as an inheritance. And they will arrange their fences within you, and they will place their tents within you. They will eat your crops, and they will drink your milk.
5 Aga m eme ka obodo Raba ghọọ ebe ịta nri nye ịnyịnya kamel, meekwa ka ala Amọn ghọọ ebe igwe ewu na atụrụ na-amakpu. Mgbe ahụ, ị ga-amata na mụ onwe m bụ Onyenwe anyị.
And I will make Rabbah into the habitation of camels, and the sons of Ammon into the resting place of cattle. And you shall know that I am the Lord.
6 Nʼihi na otu a ka Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị na-ekwu: Nʼihi na ị kụrụ aka gị, zọọ ụkwụ gị nʼala gidim, ma sitekwa nʼịkpọ asị nke obi gị ṅụrịa ọṅụ megide ala Izrel,
For thus says the Lord God: Because you have clapped your hands and stomped your foot, and have rejoiced with all your heart against the land of Israel,
7 nʼihi ya, lee, aga m esetipụ aka m megide gị, were gị nyefee nʼaka ọtụtụ mba, ndị ga-alụta gị nʼagha. Aga m eme ka ị gwụsịa, mee ka ị hapụ ịdịkwa ọzọ. Aga m ala gị nʼiyi. Ị ga-amatakwa na mụ onwe m bụ Onyenwe anyị.’”
therefore, behold, I will extend my hand over you, and I will deliver you as a spoil of the Gentiles. And I will destroy you from the peoples, and I will perish you from the lands, and I will crush you. And you shall know that I am the Lord.
8 “Ihe ndị a ka Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị na-ekwu, ‘Nʼihi na Moab na Sia sịrị, “Lee, Juda adịrịla ka mba ndị ọzọ niile,”
Thus says the Lord God: Because Moab and Seir have said, ‘Behold, the house of Judah is like all the Gentiles!’
9 nʼihi nke a, aga m emeghe akụkụ Moab, site nʼobodo nke nsọtụ oke ala ya niile, bụ Bet-Jeshimọt, Baal-Meon na Kiriatem, nke bụ ebube nke ala ahụ.
therefore, behold, I will open the shoulder of Moab from the cities, from his cities, I say, and from his borders, the famous cities of the land of Beth-Jesimoth, and Baal-meon, and Kiriathaim,
10 Aga m ewere Moab na Amọn nyefee ha nʼaka ndị ga-esi nʼọwụwa anyanwụ pụta, ka ọ bụrụ nke ha. Nʼụzọ dị otu a, a gaghị agụkwa maọbụ cheta Amọn nʼetiti mba niile.
with the sons of Ammon, to the sons of the East, and I will give it to them as an inheritance, so that there may no longer be a remembrance of the sons of Ammon among the Gentiles.
11 Aga m ata Moab ahụhụ. Mgbe ahụ, ha ga-amatakwa na mụ onwe m bụ Onyenwe anyị.’”
And I will execute judgments in Moab. And they shall know that I am the Lord.
12 “Ihe ndị a ka Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị na-ekwu, ‘Nʼihi na Edọm bọọrọ onwe ha ọbọ megide ụlọ Juda sitekwa nʼịbọ ọbọ ha bụrụ ndị ikpe mara,
Thus says the Lord God: Because Idumea has taken vengeance, so as to vindicate herself against the sons of Judah, and has sinned grievously, and has sought revenge against them,
13 nʼihi nke a, otu a ka Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị kwuru: Aga m esetipụ aka m megide Edọm, gbuo ndị bi nʼime ya, ma mmadụ ma anụmanụ. Aga m eme ka ọ tọgbọrọ nʼefu. Ndị niile bi nʼala ahụ site na Teman ruo na Dedan ka a ga-eji mma agha gbuo.
therefore, thus says the Lord God: I will extend my hand over Idumea, and I will take from it both man and beast, and I will make it desolate from the south. And those who are in Dedan will fall by the sword.
14 Ọ bụ site nʼaka ndị nke m Izrel ka m ga-esi bọọ ọbọ megide Edọm, ha ga-emeso ndị Edọm dịka ịba ụba nke iwe m na ọnụma m si dị, ha ga-amata ihe ịbọ ọbọ bụ, otu a ka Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị kwubiri.’”
And I will issue my vengeance upon Idumea, by the hand of my people, Israel. And they shall act in Idumea in accord with my wrath and my fury. And they shall know my vengeance, says the Lord God.
15 “Ihe ndị a ka Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị kwuru: ‘Nʼihi na ndị Filistia esitela na mmụọ nke ịbọ ọbọ, na mmụọ ịkpọ asị nke dị ha nʼobi bọọrọ onwe ha ọbọ, chọọ ịla ha nʼiyi.
Thus says the Lord God: Because the Philistines have taken vengeance, and have revenged themselves with all their soul, destroying, and fulfilling ancient hostilities,
16 Ya mere, ihe a ka Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị kwuru, ana m aga isetipụ aka m megide ndị Filistia. Aga m ebipụ ndị Keret, bibie ndị ahụ niile bi nʼọnụ mmiri osimiri.
because of this, thus says the Lord God: Behold, I will extend my hand over the Philistines, and I will destroy those who destroy, and I will perish the remnant of the maritime regions.
17 Aga m esite nʼoke ọnụma bọọ ha ọbọ site na ịta ha ahụhụ. Mgbe ahụ ha ga-amata na mụ onwe m bụ Onyenwe anyị, mgbe m ga-abọgwata ha ọbọ.’”
And I will execute great vengeance against them, reproving them in fury. And they shall know that I am the Lord, when I will send my vengeance upon them.”
