1 Mgbe ahụ, nwoke ahụ mere ka m lọghachikwa nʼọnụ ụzọ ụlọnsọ ukwu ahụ. Ahụrụ m iyi nke na-asọ na-aga nʼakụkụ ọwụwa anyanwụ (nʼihi na ihu ụlọnsọ ahụ chere ihu nʼọwụwa anyanwụ). Mmiri ahụ si nʼokpuru ụlọnsọ ukwu ahụ nʼakụkụ aka nri nke ebe ịchụ aja, nʼakụkụ ndịda ya na-asọpụta,
Then he brought me back unto the entrance of the house, and lo! waters coming forth from under the threshold of the house eastward, because the front of the house, was to the east, —and the waters, were coming down from beneath, from the right side of the house, on the south of the altar.
2 O mere ka m si nʼọnụ ụzọ dị nʼugwu pụta, ma gaa nʼọnụ ụzọ nke ọwụwa anyanwụ, ebe m hụrụ mmiri ahụ ka o si na ndịda na-asọpụta.
Then he brought me out by way of the north gate, and took me round by an outer way, unto an outer gate that which looketh eastward—and lo! waters trickling forth out of the right side.
3 Mgbe anyị na-aga, o ji ihe ọtụtụ dị ya nʼaka tụpụta ihe ruru narị mita ise na iri mita atọ. O duuru m na-agafe mmiri ahụ. Nʼoge a, mmiri ahụ erutela na nkwonkwo ụkwụ.
When the man went forth with a measuring line in his hand, then measured he a thousand, by the cubit, and caused me to pass through the waters—waters reaching to the ankles.
4 O jikwa ihe ọtụtụ ya tụpụtakwa ihe ruru narị mita ise na iri mita atọ ọzọ, durukwa m na-aga. Nʼoge a, mmiri ahụ erutela m nʼikpere. Mgbe ọ tụpụtara ihe ruru narị mita ise na iri mita atọ ọzọ, o duuru m gafee mmiri ruru m nʼukwu.
Then measured he a thousand, and caused me to pass through the waters—waters reaching to the knees, —and again measured he a thousand, and caused me to pass through-waters reaching to the loins.
5 Ọ tụpụtakwara ihe ruru narị mita ise na iri mita atọ ọzọ, mmiri ahụ ghọrọ osimiri nke m na-apụghị ịgafe, nʼihi na mmiri ahụ toro eto bụrụ mmiri ogwugwu, osimiri nke mmadụ na-apụghị iji ije ụkwụ gafee.
Then measured he a thousand—a river which I could not pass through—for the waters had risen-waters to swim in, a river, that could not be forded.
6 Ọ sịrị m, “Nwa nke mmadụ, ị hụrụ ihe ndị a?” O duuru m laghachi nʼọnụ mmiri.
Then said he unto me Hast thou seen son of man? Then he took me along and caused me to return to the bank of the river.
7 Mgbe m rutere nʼọnụ mmiri, lee, ahụrụ m ọtụtụ osisi nke toro nʼakụkụ abụọ nke iyi ahụ.
When I returned, then lo! by the bank of the river, trees very many, —on this side and on that side.
8 Ọ sịrị, “Iyi a na-asọ na-aga akụkụ ọwụwa anyanwụ, sọbanye nʼime Araba, tutu bịa sọbanye nʼosimiri nnu ahụ. Mgbe ọ sọbanyere nʼosimiri nnu ahụ, mmiri ya na-aghọ mmiri dị mma ọṅụṅụ
And he said unto me, These waters, are going forth unto the region toward the east and shall go down unto the waste plain, and shall enter the sea, unto the sea being led forth, then shall the waters be healed;
9 Ọtụtụ ihe e kere eke dị ndụ ga-ebi nʼebe ọbụla mmiri a na-asọ aga. Azụ dị ukwuu ga-ejupụta nʼebe ahụ, nʼihi na mmiri a na-asọbanye nʼebe ahụ, na-eme ka mmiri osimiri ghọọ mmiri dị mma ịṅụ aṅụ. Ya mere, ihe niile dị nʼebe ọbụla mmiri a sọjere ga-adị ndụ.
And it shall come to pass that every living soul that swarmeth whithersoever the rivers shall come, shall live, and the fish shall become a very great multitude; for these waters have come thither, that they may be healed so shall everything live whithersoever the river cometh.
10 Ndị ọkụ azụ ga-eguzo nʼọnụ mmiri, site nʼEn-Gedi ruo nʼEn-Eglaim a gaghị enweta ebe a na-agbasa ụgbụ e ji egbu azụ. Azụ dị iche iche ga-adịkwa, dịka azụ osimiri Mediterenịa.
And it shall come to pass that there shall stand by it fishers, from En-gedi even unto En-eglaim, places for spreading out nets, shall they be, —after their kind, shall be their fish, like the fish of the great sea exceeding many.
11 Ma ebe apịtị ya niile, nʼebe niile mmiri na-adọ, agaghị adị ọhụrụ, ọ bụ nnu ga-aga ka a ga-ahapụrụ ebe ndị ahụ.
the swamps thereof and the pools thereof, shall not be healed to salt, have they been given up.
12 Mkpụrụ osisi dị iche iche ga-eto nʼakụkụ abụọ nke iyi ahụ. Akwụkwọ ha agaghị akpọnwụ akpọnwụ, mkpụrụ ga-adị nʼelu ha mgbe niile. Mkpụrụ ọhụrụ ga-adị nʼọnwa ọbụla, nʼihi na ọ bụ mmiri si nʼebe nsọ ahụ na-agba ha mmiri. Mkpụrụ ha ga-abụ nri, akwụkwọ ha ga-abụkwa maka ịgwọ ọrịa.”
And, by the river, shall grow up on the bank thereof on this side and on that side every tree for food the leaf whereof, shall not fade, neither shall fail the fruit thereof, by its months, shall it break forth, for, as for the waters thereof, out of the sanctuary, are they coming forth, —and the fruit thereof shall be, for food, and, the leaf thereof, for healing.
13 Otu a ka Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị kwuru, “Nke a ga-abụ oke ala nke unu ga-eke nʼetiti ebo iri na abụọ nke Izrel dịka ihe nketa ha, Josef ga-enweta oke ala abụọ.
Thus saith My Lord Yahweh, This shall be the boundary whereby ye shall take your inheritances in the land, according to the twelve tribes of Israel, —Joseph shall have portions.
14 Ebo ọbụla ga-eketa dịka ibe ya ketara, nʼihi na-eweliri m aka ṅụọ iyi na m ga-enye ndị nna nna unu ala ahụ, na ala a ga-aghọkwa ihe nketa unu.
so shall ye inherit it each man like his brother, as to which I lifted my hand to give it to your fathers, —so shall this land fall to you as an inheritance.
15 “Nke a ga-abụkwa oke ala nke ala unu ahụ. “Nʼakụkụ ugwu, ọ ga-esite nʼosimiri Mediterenịa nʼakụkụ ụzọ Hetlon, gafee Lebo gawa Zedad,
This then shall be the boundary of the land, —on the north side, from the great sea by the way of Hethlon to the entering, in of Zedad;
16 site ya ruo Berota na Sibraim (nke dị nʼoke ala dị nʼagbata Damaskọs na Hamat), rukwaa na Haza Hatikon, nke dị nʼoke ala Hauran.
Hamath Berothah, Sibraim, which is between the boundary of Damascus and the boundary of Hamath, —Hazer-hatticon, which is by the boundary of Hauran.
17 Oke ala ahụ ga-esite nʼoke osimiri gbasoro oke ala nke ugwu Damaskọs ruo Haza Enan. Oke ala ndị Hamat ga-adịkwa nʼakụkụ ugwu. Nke a ga-abụ oke ala nke akụkụ ugwu unu.
Thus shall there be a boundary, from the sea Hazar-enin the boundary of Damascus, even the north northward and the boundary of Hamath, —even the north, side.
18 Oke ala nʼakụkụ ọwụwa anyanwụ ga-esite nʼagbata Hauran na Damaskọs soro akụkụ osimiri Jọdan, nʼagbata ndị Gilead na ala ndị Izrel ruo nʼosimiri dị nʼọwụwa anyanwụ, ruokwa Tama. Nke a ga-abụkwa oke ala unu nʼakụkụ ọwụwa anyanwụ.
And for the east side, from between Hauran and Damascus and from between Gilead and the land of Israel the Jordan, from the boundary by the sea eastward, shall ye measure—even the east side.
19 Oke ala na ndịda, ọ ga-esite na Tama ruo ọbụladị mmiri Meriba Kadesh, soro ụzọ ọdọ mmiri iyi Ijipt ruo osimiri Mediterenịa. Nke a bụ oke ala ahụ na ndịda.
And for the south side southward, from Tamar as far as the waters of Meriboth-kadesh, towards the torrent bed unto the great sea, —even the south side southward.
20 Nʼọdịda anyanwụ, osimiri Mediterenịa ga-abụ oke ala, ruo na ncherita ihu ụzọ e si abata Hamat. Nke a bụ oke ala unu nʼakụkụ ọdịda anyanwụ.
And for the west side, the great sea, from the boundary as far as over against the entering in of Hamath— this is the west side.
21 “Ala niile dị nʼime oke ala ndị a, ka unu ga-eke nʼetiti onwe unu dịka ebo Izrel si dị.
So then ye shall apportion this land to you by the tribes of Israel. —
22 Keenụ ha ka ha bụrụ ihe nketa nye onwe unu, ma nyekwa ndị ọbịa bi nʼetiti unu, bụ ndị ọbịa niile mụtara ụmụ. Unu ga-agụ ha dịka ndị amụrụ nʼala Izrel. Ha ga-esokwa unu keta oke nʼihe nketa a na-ekenye ndị ebo niile nke Izrel.
And it shall come to pass that ye shall divide it by lot as an inheritance, to yourselves and to the sojourners who are sojourning in your midst, who have begotten children in your midst, —so shall they be to you as a native among the sons of Israel with you, shall they cast lots for an inheritance, in the midst of the tribes of Israel.
23 A ga-ekenye ndị ọbịa ihe nketa nʼebo ọbụla ha bi nʼetiti ha.” Otu a ka Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị kwubiri.
And it shall be that with whatsoever tribe the sojourner hath become a sojourner, there shall ye give his inheritance, Declareth My Lord Yahweh.
