Izikiel 25
1 Okwu Onyenwe anyị ruru m ntị, sị,
And the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,
2 “Nwa nke mmadụ, chee ihu gị nʼala ụmụ Amọn buo amụma megide ha.
Son of man, set thy face against the sons of 'Ammon, 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,
And say unto the sons of 'Ammon, Hear ye the word of the Lord Eternal, Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Because thou hast said, Aha, concerning my sanctuary, when it was profaned; and concerning the land of Israel, when it was made desolate; and concerning the house of Judah, when they went 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.
Therefore, behold, I will give thee up to the children of the east for a possession, and they shall set up their towers in thee, and place in thee their dwellings; they shall indeed eat thy fruit, and they shall surely drink thy 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 change Rabbah into a pasture for camels, and [the land of] the sons of 'Ammon into a resting-place for flocks: and ye 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 hath said the Lord Eternal, Whereas thou didst clap thy hands, and stamp with thy feet, and rejoice with all thy derision in the soul over 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, will I stretch out my hand over thee, and will give thee up for a spoil to the nations; and I will cut thee off from the people, and I will cause thee to perish out of the countries; I will destroy thee, and thou shalt 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 hath said the Lord Eternal, Because Moab and Se'ir do say, Behold, the house of Judah is like all the nations:
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 side of Moab from the cities, from his cities on his frontiers, the glory of the country, Beth-ha-yeshimoth, Ba'al-me'on, and Kiryathayim,
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.
Unto the children of the east [coming] against the sons of 'Ammon, and I will give them in possession; in order that the sons of 'Ammon may not be remembered among the nations.
11 Aga m ata Moab ahụhụ. Mgbe ahụ, ha ga-amatakwa na mụ onwe m bụ Onyenwe anyị.’”
And on Moab will I execute judgments: 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 hath said the Lord Eternal, Because the Edomites have acted revengefully against the house of Judah, and have greatly offended, and have taken vengeance on 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 hath said the Lord Eternal, I will also stretch out my hand against Edom, and cut off from it man and beast; and I will make it a ruined land from Theman; and they of Dedan shall 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 display my vengeance on Edom by the hand of my people Israel; and they shall do in Edom according to my anger and according to my fury: and they shall feel my vengeance, saith the Lord Eternal.
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 hath said the Lord Eternal, Because the Philistines have acted in revenge, and have taken vengeance with derision in their soul, to destroy out of ancient enmity:
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.
Therefore thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Behold, I will stretch out my hand against the Philistines, and I will cut off the Kerethim, and destroy the remnant of the [dwellers] of the sea-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.’”
And I will execute on them great vengeances with furious chastisements: and they shall know that I am the Lord, when I display my vengeance on them.
