Izikiel 25
1 Okwu Onyenwe anyị ruru m ntị, sị,
A message from the Lord came to me, saying,
2 “Nwa nke mmadụ, chee ihu gị nʼala ụmụ Amọn buo amụma megide ha.
“Son of man, face towards the Ammonites and prophesy against 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,
Tell the Ammonites to listen to the message from the Lord God, for this is what the Lord God says: Because you said, ‘Oh good!’ when my sanctuary was made unclean, when the country of Israel was turned into a wasteland, and when the people of Judah were taken into exile,
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.
this is why I will make you subject to the people of the East. They will make camp and set up their tents right where you live. They will eat your fruit and 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.
I will make Rabbah a camel pasture, and Ammon a sheep-pen. Then you will 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 this is what the Lord God says: Because you clapped your hands and stamped your feet in a celebration of hate over what happened to 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.’”
this is why I will reach out and attack you, and hand you over to be looted by other nations. I will wipe you out so completely that you will no longer exist as a nation. I will destroy you, and then you will 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,”
This is what the Lord God says: Because the people of Moab and Seir said, ‘Look, the people of Judah are just like everybody else,’
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.
that's why I will open Moab's border to attack, including Beth-jeshimoth, Baal-meon, and Kiriathaim, the country's famous cities.
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.
I will hand Moab over to the people of the East for them to rule so that will no longer exist as a nation just like the Ammonites.
11 Aga m ata Moab ahụhụ. Mgbe ahụ, ha ga-amatakwa na mụ onwe m bụ Onyenwe anyị.’”
This is how I'm going to punish the Moabites, and they will 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,
This is what the Lord God says: Because Edom committed serious sins by taking vicious revenge on the people of Judah,
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.
this is why the Lord God says: I will reach out to attack Edom and destroy all its people and animals. I will turn it into a wasteland. All the way from Teman in the north to Dedan in the south they will die 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.’”
I will take revenge on the Edomites through my people Israel. They will deal with the Edomites so that they experience my anger. Then they will know what my vengeance is like, declares 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.
This is what the Lord God says: Because the Philistines in their hatred repeatedly took revenge on Judah, trying to destroy the people,
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.
this is why the Lord God says: Watch out! I'm going to reach out to attack the Philistines, and I will wipe out the Kerethites and destroy those who are left along the coast.
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.’”
My revenge against them will be severe as I punish them in my anger. Then they will know that I am the Lord, when they experience my anger.”
