1 Nʼafọ nke iri na abụọ, nʼọnwa nke iri na abụọ, nʼụbọchị nke mbụ ya, okwu nke Onyenwe anyị rutere m ntị, sị,
And it came about in the twelfth year, in the twelfth month, on the first day of the month, that the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
2 “Nwa nke mmadụ, buliere Fero bụ eze Ijipt, abụ akwa sị ya, “‘Ị dị ka ọdụm nʼetiti mba niile. Ị dịkwa ka ogologo anụ ọjọọ na-anọ nʼosimiri. I na-akpụgharị onwe gị nʼime mmiri. I ji ụkwụ abụọ na-agbarụ mmiri, na-emekwa ka mmiri iyi niile gbarụọ.
Son of man, make a song of grief for Pharaoh, king of Egypt, and say to him, Young lion of the nations, destruction has come on you; and you were like a sea-beast in the seas, sending out bursts of water, troubling the waters with your feet, making their streams dirty.
3 “‘Otu a ka Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị sịrị, “‘Aga m eji ọtụtụ ndị dị ukwuu nʼọnụọgụgụ gbasaa ụgbụ m nʼelu gị. Ha ga-adọkpụkwara gị nʼime ụgbụ m.
This is what the Lord has said: My net will be stretched out over you, and I will take you up in my fishing-net.
4 Aga m atụsa gị nʼala, nʼọhịa ka m ga-atụfukwa gị, meekwa ka ụmụ nnụnụ niile nke eluigwe bekwasị gị. Aga m emekwa ka anụ ọhịa nke ụwa niile rijuo afọ nʼanụ ahụ gị.
And I will let you be stretched on the land; I will send you out violently into the open field; I will let all the birds of heaven come to rest on you and will make the beasts of all the earth full of you.
5 Aga m tụsasịkwa anụ ahụ gị nʼugwu niile, werekwa ihe ọbụla fọdụrụ nʼime gị mejuo ndagwurugwu niile.
And I will put your flesh on the mountains, and make the valleys full of your blood.
6 M ga-eji ọbara gị na-asọ asọ dee ala niile dịka mmiri ọ bụladị ruo nʼugwu niile, ebe niile mmiri si erufe ga-ejupụtakwa nʼanụ ahụ gị.
And the land will be watered with your blood, and the waterways will be full of you.
7 Mgbe m ga-emenyụ gị dịka ọkụ, aga m ekpuchi ihu eluigwe, meekwa ka kpakpando niile jie nji. Aga m eji igwe ojii mechie ihu anyanwụ, ọnwa agakwaghị enye ìhè ya.
And when I put out your life, the heaven will be covered and its stars made dark; I will let the sun be covered with a cloud and the moon will not give her light.
8 Ihe niile nke na-enye ìhè nʼeluigwe ka m ga-eme ka ha jie nji nʼelu gị, mee ka ọchịchịrị gbachie nʼala gị niile, otu a ka Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị kwubiri ya.
All the bright lights of heaven I will make dark over you, and put dark night on your land, says the Lord.
9 Aga m eweta obi mgbawa nʼetiti ndị mmadụ dị iche iche mgbe m ga-eme ka mbibi gị bịa nʼetiti mba niile nʼime ala dị iche iche nke ị na-amaghị.
And the hearts of numbers of peoples will be troubled, when I send your prisoners among the nations, into a country which is strange to you.
10 Aga m eme ka i ju ọtụtụ ndị mmadụ anya, ndị eze ha ga-ama jijiji nʼụjọ maka gị mgbe m ga-efegharị mma agha m nʼihu ha. Onye ọbụla nʼime ha ga-ama jijiji na ntabi anya ọbụla nʼihi ndụ ya nʼụbọchị ahụ, ị ga-ada.
And I will make a number of peoples overcome with wonder at you, and their kings will be full of fear because of you, when my sword is waved before them: they will be shaking every minute, every man fearing for his life, in the day of your fall.
11 “‘Nʼihi na nke a bụ ihe Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị kwuru, “‘Mma agha nke eze Babilọn ga-abịakwasị gị.
For this is what the Lord has said: The sword of the king of Babylon will come on you.
12 Usuu ndị agha gị ga-adakwa nʼihu mma agha nke ndị dị ike, bụ ndị mba ahụ kachasị mba niile njọ. Nganga niile nke Ijipt na ndị ya, ka ha ga-egwepịa. Ha ga-akwatu usuu ndị agha ha niile.
I will let the swords of the strong be the cause of the fall of your people; all of them men to be feared among the nations: and they will make waste the pride of Egypt, and all its people will come to destruction.
13 Aga m emekwa ka anụmanụ ya niile, nke na-ata ahịhịa nʼakụkụ mmiri laa nʼiyi. Ụkwụ mmadụ, na ụkwụ anụmanụ agakwaghị agbarụ mmiri ahụ ọzọ.
And I will put an end to all her beasts which are by the great waters, and they will never again be troubled by the foot of man or by the feet of beasts.
14 Nʼihi ya, mmiri niile nke ya ga-adị ọcha, na-asọkwa dịka mmanụ. Otu a ka Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị kwuru.
Then I will make their waters clear and their rivers will be flowing like oil, says the Lord.
15 Mgbe m bibiri Ijipt, kpochapụkwa ihe niile dị nʼime ya, mgbe m tidara ndị niile bi nʼime ya, ha ga-amata nʼezie na mụ onwe m bụ Onyenwe anyị.’
When I make Egypt an unpeopled waste, cutting off from the land all the things in it; when I send punishment on all those living in it, then it will be clear to them that I am the Lord.
16 “Nke a bụ abụ akwa ha ga-abụrụ ya. Ndị inyom mba dị iche iche ga-abụ ya. Ha ga-abụ ya nʼihi Ijipt na usuu ndị agha ya, otu a ka Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị kwubiri.”
It is a song of grief, and people will give voice to it, the daughters of the nations will give voice to it, even for Egypt and all her people, says the Lord.
17 Nʼafọ nke iri na abụọ ahụ, nʼụbọchị nke iri na ise nke ọnwa ahụ, okwu nke Onyenwe anyị rutere m ntị sị,
And in the twelfth year, on the fifteenth day of the month, the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
18 “Nwa nke mmadụ, tie mkpu akwa nʼihi usuu ndị agha Ijipt niile, wezuga ha baa nʼokpuru ụwa ma ndị inyom mba dị iche iche dị ukwuu, ha na ndị ahụ na-arịdaru nʼolulu.
Son of man, let your voice be loud in sorrow for the people of Egypt and send them down, even you and the daughters of the nations; I will send them down into the lowest parts of the earth, with those who go down into the underworld.
19 Gwa ha okwu sị ha, ‘Unu o nwere ihuọma karịa ndị ọzọ? Lee, ihe na-eche gị bụ olulu. Ọ bụkwa ndị a na-ebighị ugwu ka ị ga-edinakwuru.’
Are you more beautiful than any? go down, and take your rest among those without circumcision,
20 Nʼetiti ndị e ji mma agha gbuo ka ha ga-ada. Amịpụtala mma agha maka ya, ka a dọkpụrụ ya na igwe ndị ya niile pụọ.
Among those who have been put to the sword: they will give a resting-place with them to all their people.
21 Ndị dike nke ndị ndu dike ga-esite nʼala mmụọ kwuo banyere Ijipt na ndị niile ha na ya dị na mma, ‘Ha arịdatala, ha na-edina ala ha na ndị a na-ebighị ugwu, nakwa ndị niile ahụ e ji mma agha gbuo.’ (Sheol h7585)
The strong among the great ones will say to him from the underworld, Are you more beautiful than any? go down, you and your helpers, and take your rest among those without circumcision, and those who have been put to the sword. (Sheol h7585)
22 “Nʼebe ahụ ka Asịrịa na ndị agha ya niile nọ; ili ndị niile o gburu egbu gbara ya gburugburu, bụ ndị niile nwụrụ site na mma agha.
There is Asshur and all her army, round about her last resting-place: all of them put to death by the sword:
23 Ili ha dị na nsọtụ niile nke olulu, ndị agha ya niile gbakwara ili ya gburugburu. E gbudala ndị niile mere ka oke egwu dị nʼala ndị dị ndụ. Ndị a nwụrụ site na mma agha.

There is Elam and all her people, round about her last resting-place: all of them put to death by the sword, who have gone down without circumcision into the lowest parts of the earth, who were a cause of fear in the land of the living, and are put to shame with those who go down to the underworld:
25 E meere ya ebe ndina nʼetiti ndị nwụrụ anwụ. Igwe mmadụ ya nwụrụ anwụ gbakwara ili ya gburugburu.

Ha bụ ndị e debere nʼetiti ndị nwụrụ anwụ.
They have made a bed for her among the dead, and all her people are round about her resting-place: all of them without circumcision, put to death with the sword; for they were a cause of fear in the land of the living, and are put to shame with those who go down to the underworld: they have been given a place among those who have been put to the sword.
26 “Meshek na Tubal nọkwa nʼebe ahụ, ha na usuu ndị agha ha niile, gburugburu ili ha. Ha niile bụkwa ndị a na-ebighị ugwu, ndị e ji mma agha gbuo, nʼihi na ha mere ka oke egwu ha dị nʼala ndị dị ndụ.
There is Meshech, Tubal, and all her people, round about her last resting-place: all of them without circumcision, put to death by the sword; for they were a cause of fear in the land of the living.

And they have been put to rest with the fighting men who came to their end in days long past, who went down to the underworld with their instruments of war, placing their swords under their heads, and their body-covers are over their bones; for their strength was a cause of fear in the land of the living. (Sheol h7585)
28 “Ma gị onwe gị, bụ Fero, otu a ka a ga-esi gbajie gị, ị ga-edinakwa nʼetiti ndị a na-ebighị ugwu, gị na ndị e ji mma agha gbuo.
But you will have your bed among those without circumcision, and will be put to rest with those who have been put to death with the sword.

There is Edom, her kings and all her princes, who have been given a resting-place with those who were put to the sword: they will be resting among those without circumcision, even with those who go down to the underworld.
30 “Ndịisi nke mba ndị ugwu, na ndị Saịdọn niile nọ nʼebe ahụ. Ụjọ niile nke ha sitere nʼisiike ha menye ndị mmadụ egbochighị ha iketa oke nʼihere nke iso ndị e gburu egbu nwụọ. Ha soro ndị eji mma agha gbuo dinaa na-ebighị ugwu, buru ihere ha, ha na-arịdaru nʼolulu.
There are the chiefs of the north, all of them, and all the Zidonians, who have gone down with those who have been put to the sword: they are shamed on account of all the fear caused by their strength; they are resting there without circumcision, among those who have been put to the sword, and are put to shame with those who go down to the underworld.
31 “Fero na ndị agha ya niile ga-ahụ ndị a, ọ ga-enwe nkasiobi maka ndị ya niile, na usuu ndị agha ya niile ndị eji mma agha gbuo. Otu a ka Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị kwupụtara.

For he put his fear in the land of the living: and he will be put to rest among those without circumcision, with those who have been put to death with the sword, even Pharaoh and all his people, says the Lord.
