< Izikiel 32 >
1 Nʼafọ nke iri na abụọ, nʼọnwa nke iri na abụọ, nʼụbọchị nke mbụ ya, okwu nke Onyenwe anyị rutere m ntị, sị,
Then it happened in the twelfth month of the twelfth year, on the first of the month, that the word of Yahweh 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, lift up a lament concerning Pharaoh the king of Egypt; say to him, 'You are like a young lion among the nations, but you are like a monster in the seas; you churn up the water, you stir up the waters with your feet and muddy their waters.
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.
The Lord Yahweh says this: So I will spread my net over you in the assembly of many peoples, and they will lift you up in my 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.
I will abandon you in the land. I will throw you into a field and cause all the birds of the heavens to settle on you; the hunger of all living animals on earth will be satisfied by you.
5 Aga m tụsasịkwa anụ ahụ gị nʼugwu niile, werekwa ihe ọbụla fọdụrụ nʼime gị mejuo ndagwurugwu niile.
For I will put your flesh on the mountains, and I will fill the valleys with your worm-filled corpse.
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.
Then I will pour your blood over the mountains, and the stream beds will be filled with your blood.
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.
Then when I extinguish you, I will cover the heavens and darken their stars; I will cover the sun with clouds, and the moon will not shine its 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 shining lights in the heavens I will darken over you, and I will put darkness over your land—this is the Lord Yahweh's declaration.
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.
So I will terrify the heart of many peoples in lands that you do not know, when I bring about your collapse among the nations, among lands that you have not known.
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.
I will shock many peoples concerning you; their kings will shudder in horror concerning you when I swing my sword before them. Every moment each one will tremble because of you, on the day of your downfall.
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 the Lord Yahweh says this: The sword of the king of Babylon will come against 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 cause your multitudes to fall by warriors' swords—each warrior a terror of nations. These warriors will devastate the pride of Egypt and destroy all of its multitudes.
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.
For I will destroy all the livestock from beside the plentiful waters; the foot of man will no longer stir the waters up, neither will the hooves of cattle stir them.
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 calm their waters and make their rivers run like oil— this is the Lord Yahweh's declaration.
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 the land of Egypt an abandoned place, when the land is made bare of all its fullness, when I attack all the inhabitants in her, they will know that I am Yahweh.
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.”
There will be a lament; the daughters of the nations will lament over her; they will lament over Egypt, over all her multitudes they will lament—this is the Lord Yahweh's declaration.'”
17 Nʼafọ nke iri na abụọ ahụ, nʼụbọchị nke iri na ise nke ọnwa ahụ, okwu nke Onyenwe anyị rutere m ntị sị,
Then it happened in the twelfth year, on the fifteenth day of the month, that the word of Yahweh 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, weep for the multitudes of Egypt and bring them down— her and the daughters of majestic nations—to the lowest earth with those who have gone down to the pit.
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 really more beautiful than anyone else? Go down and lie down with the uncircumcised.'
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.
They will fall among those who were killed by the sword. The sword has been drawn! She has been given to the sword; they will seize her and her multitudes.
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 )
The strongest of the warriors in Sheol will declare about Egypt and her allies, 'They have come down here! They will lie with the uncircumcised, with those who were killed by the sword.' (Sheol )
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.
Assyria is there with all her assembly. Her graves surround her; all of them were killed 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.
Those whose graves are set in the recesses of the pit are there, with all her assembly. Her graves surround all of those who were killed, who fell by the sword, those who brought terror on the land of the living.
24 “Nʼebe ahụ ka Elam na usuu ndị agha ya nọ gbaa ili ya gburugburu. Ha niile bụ ndị e gburu egbu, ndị nwụrụ site na mma agha. Ndị niile mere ka oke egwu dị nʼala ndị dị ndụ arịdaruola nʼolulu ahụ dịka ndị a na-ebighị ugwu. Ha esorola ndị ahụ rịdaruru nʼala mmụọ keta oke nʼihere dịrị ha.
Elam is there with all her multitudes. Her graves surround her; all of them were killed. Those who fell by the sword, who have gone down uncircumcised to the lowest parts of the earth, who brought their terrors on the land of the living and who carry their own shame, together with the ones going down to the pit.
25 E meere ya ebe ndina nʼetiti ndị nwụrụ anwụ. Igwe mmadụ ya nwụrụ anwụ gbakwara ili ya gburugburu. Ha niile bụ ndị a na-ebighị ugwu, ndị e ji mma agha gbuo, nʼihi na-emere ka oke egwu ha dị nʼala ndị dị ndụ, ma ha na-eburu ihere ha, ha na ndị ahụ na-arịdaru nʼolulu. Ha bụ ndị e debere nʼetiti ndị nwụrụ anwụ.
They set a bedroll for Elam and all her multitudes in the midst of the slain; her graves surround her. All of them are uncircumcised, pierced by the sword, because they had brought their terrors on the land of the living. So they carry their own shame, together with the ones going down to the pit among all those who have been killed, those who are going down to the pit. Elam is among all those who were killed.
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.
Meshech, Tubal, and all their multitudes are there! Their graves surround them. All of them are uncircumcised, killed by the sword, because they had brought their terrors on the land of the living.
27 Ugbu a, e likọọla ha na ndị a na-ebighị ugwu, bụ ndị dike nʼagha, ndị nwụrụ anwụ, ndị ji ngwa agha ha gbadaa nʼime ili ha, ndị e hinyere ngwa agha ha nʼokpuru isi ha, ebe ọta ha dịkwasịrị nʼọkpụkpụ mgbe e tinyere ha nʼili. Ma nʼezie, ndị a bụ dike nʼagha mere ka oke egwu dị nʼala ndị dị ndụ. (Sheol )
They do not lie with the fallen warriors of the uncircumcised who have gone down to Sheol with all their weapons of war, and with their swords placed under their heads and their iniquities over their bones. For they were the terror of warriors in the land of the living. (Sheol )
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.
So you, Egypt, will be broken in the midst of the uncircumcised! You will lie alongside those who were pierced by the sword.
29 “Nʼebe ahụ ka Edọm na ndị eze ya, na ndịisi ya niile nọ. Nʼagbanyeghị ịdị ike ha, ha na ndị e ji mma agha gbuo tọgbọrọ nʼebe ahụ. Ha na ndị a na-ebighị ugwu so dinaa, bụ ndị na-arịdaru nʼolulu.
Edom is there with her kings and all her leaders. They have been placed in their strength with those killed by the sword. With the uncircumcised they lie, with those who have gone down to the pit.
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.
The princes of the north are there—all of them and all the Sidonians who went down with the ones who had been pierced. They were powerful and made others to be afraid, but now they are there in shame, uncircumcised with those who were pierced by the sword. They carry their own shame, together with the ones going down to the pit.
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.
Pharaoh will look and be comforted about all his multitudes who were pierced by the sword—Pharaoh and all his army—this is the Lord Yahweh's declaration.
32 Nʼagbanyeghị na emeela m ka ọ gbasaa ụjọ nʼala ndị dị ndụ, Fero na igwe mmadụ a niile ka a ga-eli nʼetiti ndị a na-ebighị ugwu, ya na ndị ejiri mma agha gbuo. Otu a ka Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị kwubiri.”
I put him as my terrifying one in the land of the living, but he will be laid down in the midst of the uncircumcised, among those pierced by the sword, Pharaoh and all his multitudes—this is the Lord Yahweh's declaration.”
