< Izikiel 39 >
1 “Ma gị, nwa nke mmadụ buo amụma megide Gog, sị, ‘Otu a ka Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị na-ekwu: Ana m emegide gị, Gog, onyeisi nke Meshek na Tubal.
“As for you, O son of man, prophesy against Gog and declare that this is what the Lord GOD says: Behold, I am against you, O Gog, chief prince of Meshech and Tubal.
2 Aga m echigharị gị, kpụrụ gị na-aga. Aga m esi nʼebe dịkarịsịrị anya nʼakụkụ ugwu kpọta gị, ziga gị ka i buso ugwu niile nke Izrel agha.
I will turn you around, drive you along, bring you up from the far north, and send you against the mountains of Israel.
3 Mgbe ahụ, aga m etichapụ ụta dị gị nʼaka ekpe, meekwa ka àkụ niile nke dị nʼaka nri gị dachapụ.
Then I will strike the bow from your left hand and dash down the arrows from your right hand.
4 Nʼelu ugwu niile nke Izrel ka ị ga-ada, gị onwe gị, na usuu ndị agha gị niile, na mba niile dị iche iche ndị na-eso gị. Udele niile dị iche iche na anụ ọhịa niile ka m ga-enyefe anụ ahụ unu ka ha were unu mere ihe oriri.
On the mountains of Israel you will fall—you and all your troops and the nations with you. I will give you as food to every kind of ravenous bird and wild beast.
5 Ị ga-ada nʼọhịa na-enweghị ebe nzobe, nʼihi na m ekwuola ya. Otu a ka Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị kwubiri.
You will fall in the open field, for I have spoken, declares the Lord GOD.
6 Aga m awụkwasị ọkụ nʼahụ Magog, na nʼahụ ndị ahụ niile bi nʼudo, nʼọnụ mmiri niile. Ha ga-amatakwa na mụ onwe m bụ Onyenwe anyị.
I will send fire on Magog and on those who dwell securely in the coastlands, and they will know that I am the LORD.
7 “‘Aga m eme ka amara aha nsọ m nʼetiti ndị m bụ Izrel. Agaghị m ekwekwa ka e lelịa aha nsọ m anya ọzọ. Mba niile dị iche iche ga-amatakwa na mụ onwe m bụ Onyenwe anyị, bụ Onye nsọ nọ nʼIzrel.
So I will make My holy name known among My people Israel and will no longer allow it to be profaned. Then the nations will know that I am the LORD, the Holy One in Israel.
8 Lee, ọ na-abịa, nʼezie, ọ ga-emekwa, otu a ka Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị kwubiri. Nke a bụ ụbọchị ahụ nke m kwuru ihe banyere ya.
Yes, it is coming, and it will surely happen, declares the Lord GOD. This is the day of which I have spoken.
9 “‘Nʼoge ahụ, ndị bi nʼobodo niile nke Izrel ga-apụ tụtụkọtaa ngwa agha ndị ahụ, were fụnwue ọkụ, surekwaa ha ọkụ, ma ọta ukwu ma ọta nta niile, ụta na àkụ niile, ma mkpọ agha na ùbe niile. Ọ bụ afọ asaa ka ha ga-eji ha mere nkụ.
Then those who dwell in the cities of Israel will go out, kindle fires, and burn up the weapons—the bucklers and shields, the bows and arrows, the clubs and spears. For seven years they will use them for fuel.
10 Ha agaghị akpatakwa nkụ site nʼọhịa ọzọ, maọbụ gbuta ha site nʼoke ọhịa, nʼihi na ha ga-eji ngwa agha ndị a mere ihe ịfụnwu ọkụ. Mgbe ahụ, ha ga-akwata ihe onwunwe nke ndị ahụ kwakọrọ ihe onwunwe ha nʼagha, lụtakwa ihe onwunwe nke ndị ahụ lụnara ha ihe onwunwe ha nʼike. Otu a ka Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị kwubiri.
They will not gather wood from the countryside or cut it from the forests, for they will use the weapons for fuel. They will loot those who looted them and plunder those who plundered them, declares the Lord GOD.
11 “‘Nʼụbọchị ahụ, aga m enye Gog ebe olili ya nʼIzrel, nʼime ndagwurugwu si ọwụwa anyanwụ gawa nʼụzọ oke osimiri. Ọ ga-anọchi ụzọ ndị ije nʼihi na ebe ahụ ka a ga-eli Gog na usuu ndị agha ya. Ya mere, a ga-akpọ ya Ndagwurugwu Hamọn Gog.
And on that day I will give Gog a burial place in Israel, the Valley of the Travelers, east of the Sea. It will block those who travel through, because Gog and all his hordes will be buried there. So it will be called the Valley of Hamon-gog.
12 “‘Ọnwa asaa ka ọ ga-ewe ndị Izrel ili ozu ahụ niile, ime ka ala ahụ dị ọcha.
For seven months the house of Israel will be burying them in order to cleanse the land.
13 Ndị niile nke ala ahụ ga-eli ha, ụbọchị ahụ m ga-eme ka ebube m pụta ìhè ga-abụ ụbọchị ihe ncheta nye ha. Otu a ka Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị kwubiri.
All the people of the land will bury them, and it will bring them renown on the day I display My glory, declares the Lord GOD.
14 A ga-ekewapụtakwa ndị ọrụ ha ga-abụ naanị ime ka ala ahụ dị ọcha. Ha ga-ejegharị nʼala ahụ niile, ha na ndị ọzọ, na-eli ozu ọbụla bụ ndị tọgbọrọ nʼala. “‘Mgbe ọnwa asaa zuru, ha ga-edo anya chọgharịa nʼala ahụ ma o nwere ebe ozu ọzọ dị.
And men will be employed to continually pass through the land to cleanse it by burying the invaders who remain on the ground. At the end of the seven months they will begin their search.
15 Mgbe ahụ, ha na-ejegharị, ọ bụrụ na onye ọbụla achọta ọkpụkpụ mmadụ ọ ga-amanye ihe ịrịbama nʼakụkụ ya, ka ndị na-eli ozu hụ ha, kporokwa ha gaa na Ndagwurugwu Gog na ndị agha ya lie ha.
As they pass through the land, anyone who sees a human bone will set up a pillar next to it, until the gravediggers have buried it in the Valley of Hamon-gog.
16 Ọzọkwa, otu obodo aha ya bụ Hamona, nke pụtara ọtụtụ, ga-adị nʼebe ahụ. Otu a ka ha ga-esi mee ka ala ahụ dị ọcha.’
(Even the city will be named Hamonah.) And so they will cleanse the land.
17 “Nwa nke mmadụ, otu a ka Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị kwuru, kpọọ ụmụ nnụnụ niile oku, na anụ ọhịa niile dị iche iche, sị ha, ‘Chịkọtaanụ onwe unu, site nʼakụkụ niile bịanụ nʼọchụchụ aja m, nke mụ onwe m na-achụ nʼihi unu, bụ aja dị ukwuu nke m na-achụ nʼelu ugwu niile dị nʼIzrel. Nʼebe ahụ ka unu ga-anọ taa anụ, ṅụọkwa ọbara.
And as for you, son of man, this is what the Lord GOD says: Call out to every kind of bird and to every beast of the field: ‘Assemble and come together from all around to the sacrificial feast that I am preparing for you, a great feast on the mountains of Israel. There you will eat flesh and drink blood.
18 Anụ ahụ ndị dị ike ka unu ga-eri, ọ bụkwa ọbara ndịisi niile nke ụwa ka unu ga-aṅụ, dịka a ga-asị na ha bụ ebule na ụmụ atụrụ, na mkpi, na oke ehi, anụ mara abụba nke si na Bashan.
You will eat the flesh of the mighty and drink the blood of the princes of the earth as though they were rams, lambs, goats, and bulls—all the fattened animals of Bashan.
19 Unu ga-erijukwa abụba afọ, ṅụbigakwa ọbara oke ruo mgbe ọ ga-ebu unu, site nʼaja mmemme nke m na-achụ nʼihi unu.
At the sacrifice I am preparing, you will eat fat until you are gorged and drink blood until you are drunk.
20 Afọ anụ ịnyịnya, na ụgbọala, na nke ndị dike, na nke ndị agha niile ga-eju unu na tebul m.’ Otu a ka Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị kwubiri ya.
And at My table you will eat your fill of horses and riders, of mighty men and warriors of every kind,’ declares the Lord GOD.
21 “Mgbe ahụ, aga m egosi ebube m na nsọpụrụ m nʼetiti mba niile dị iche iche. Mba niile ga-ahụkwa ahụhụ nke m tara ha, na aka m nke m tụkwasịrị ha.
I will display My glory among the nations, and all the nations will see the judgment that I execute and the hand that I lay upon them.
22 Site nʼụbọchị ahụ gaa nʼihu, ụlọ Izrel ga-amata na mụ onwe m bụ Onyenwe anyị Chineke ha.
From that day forward the house of Israel will know that I am the LORD their God.
23 Mba niile ga-amatakwa na ọ bụ nʼihi mmehie ka e ji dọta Izrel nʼagha, buru ha jee mba dị iche iche. Ha ga-amata na ihe dị otu a dakwasịrị ha nʼihi ekwesighị ntụkwasị obi ha. Ọ bụ nʼihi ya ka m ji zoo ihu m site nʼebe ha nọ, were ha nyefee nʼaka ndị iro ha. Ha niile dakwara site na mma agha.
And the nations will know that the house of Israel went into exile for their iniquity, because they were unfaithful to Me. So I hid My face from them and delivered them into the hands of their enemies, so that they all fell by the sword.
24 Atara m ha ahụhụ dịka adịghị ọcha ha na ajọ omume ha si dị. Ezokwara m ihu m site nʼebe ha nọ.
I dealt with them according to their uncleanness and transgressions, and I hid My face from them.
25 “Nʼihi ya, otu a ka Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị kwuru, Aga m eme ka Jekọb a dọtara nʼagha lọta. Aga m enwekwa obi ebere nʼahụ ndị Izrel niile. Aga m esitekwa nʼekworo mee ka aha m dịgide nsọ.
Therefore this is what the Lord GOD says: Now I will restore Jacob from captivity and will have compassion on the whole house of Israel, and I will be jealous for My holy name.
26 Ha ga-echezọkwa ihe ihere ha, na-ekwesighị ntụkwasị obi ha niile, nke ha gosiri m, mgbe ha biri nʼudo nʼala ha, na-enweghị onye na-eme ka ha tụọ egwu.
They will forget their disgrace and all the treachery they committed against Me, when they dwell securely in their land, with no one to frighten them.
27 Mgbe m mere ka ha site na mba dị iche iche pụta, mgbe m sitere nʼala niile nke ndị iro ha kpọpụta ha, aga m esite na ha gosi ịdị nsọ m nye mba dị iche iche.
When I bring them back from the peoples and gather them out of the lands of their enemies, I will show My holiness in them in the sight of many nations.
28 Mgbe ahụ, ha ga-amata na mụ onwe m bụ Onyenwe anyị Chineke ha. Ha ga-amata na ọ bụ ezie na ọ bụ m mere ka a dọta ha nʼagha buru ha jee mba dị iche iche, na m ga-achịkọta ha mee ka ha lọghachi nʼala nke aka ha. Ọ dịkwaghị onye a ga-ahapụ na mba ọzọ.
Then they will know that I am the LORD their God, when I regather them to their own land, not leaving any of them behind after their exile among the nations.
29 Agaghị m ezokwa ihu m ọzọ nʼebe ha nọ, nʼihi na aga m awụkwasị ụlọ Izrel Mmụọ m. Otu a ka Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị kwubiri ya.”
And I will no longer hide My face from them, for I will pour out My Spirit on the house of Israel, declares the Lord GOD.”
