Izikiel 7
1 Okwu Onyenwe anyị ruru m ntị, sị,
Moreover the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
2 “Ma gị onwe gị, Nwa nke mmadụ, nke a bụ ihe Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị sịrị ala Izrel: “‘Ọgwụgwụ! Ọgwụgwụ abịakwasịla akụkụ anọ nke ala ahụ.
And thou, son of man, thus saith the Lord GOD unto the land of Israel, An end: the end is come upon the four corners of the land.
3 Ugbu a ka ọgwụgwụ bịakwasịrị unu. Lee, aga m eme ka iwe m bịakwasị unu; aga m ekpe unu ikpe dịka omume unu si dị, aga m ata unu ahụhụ maka arụ unu niile.
Now is the end upon thee, and I will send mine anger upon thee, and will judge thee according to thy ways; and I will bring upon thee all thine abominations.
4 Agaghị m enwekwa ọmịiko nʼebe ị nọ, agaghị m emekwara gị ebere, kama aga m ata unu ahụhụ maka omume unu na arụ niile dị nʼetiti unu. “‘Mgbe ahụ, unu ga-amata na mụ onwe m bụ Onyenwe anyị.’
And mine eye shall not spare thee, neither will I have pity: but I will bring thy ways upon thee, and thine abominations shall be in the midst of thee: and ye shall know that I am the LORD.
5 “Nke a bụ ihe Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị sịrị, “‘Oke mbibi, oke mbibi nke a na-anụbeghị ụdị ya mbụ. Lee, ka ọ na-abịa.
Thus saith the Lord GOD: An evil, an only evil; behold, it cometh.
6 Ọgwụgwụ abịala! Ọgwụgwụ abịala! Ọ kpalitela onwe ya imegide unu. Lee, ka ọ na-abịa!
An end is come, the end is come, it awaketh against thee; behold, it cometh.
7 Oke nsogbu abịakwasịla gị, gị onwe gị bi nʼala ahụ. Oge ahụ abịala! Ụbọchị ahụ dịkwa nso! Ọgbaaghara dị ebe niile, ọ bụghị ọṅụ dị nʼelu ugwu niile.
Thy doom is come unto thee, O inhabitant of the land: the time is come, the day is near; [a day of] tumult, and not [of] joyful shouting, upon the mountains.
8 Ejikerela m ịwụkwasị gị ọnụma m nʼahụ mee ka oke iwe m zuo gị ahụ niile. Aga m ekpe gị ikpe dịka omume gị si dị, kwụghachikwa gị nʼihi ibi ndụ rụrụ arụ gị niile.
Now will I shortly pour out my fury upon thee, and accomplish mine anger against thee, and will judge thee according to thy ways; and I will bring upon thee all thine abominations.
9 Agaghị m emere gị ebere, agakwaghị m ahapụ ịta gị ahụhụ. Aga m akwụghachi gị dịka omume gị si dị, kwụghachikwa gị nʼihi ibi ndụ rụrụ arụ niile nke dị nʼetiti unu. “‘Mgbe ahụ, ị ga-amata na ọ bụ mụ onwe m bụ Onyenwe anyị, na-eti unu ihe ndị a.
And mine eye shall not spare, neither will I have pity: I will bring upon thee according to thy ways, and thine abominations shall be in the midst of thee; and ye shall know that I the LORD do smite.
10 “‘Lee, ụbọchị ahụ! Lee, ka ọ na-abịa! Oke nsogbu enupụtala, mkpanaka agbala okoko nganga amaala ifuru!
Behold, the day, behold, it cometh: thy doom is gone forth; the rod hath blossomed, pride hath budded.
11 Ihe ike ebilitala, mkpọrọ eji ata ndị ajọ omume ahụhụ. O nweghị onye ọbụla nʼime ha nke ga-afọdụ, maọbụ igwe mmadụ maọbụ ụba ha, o nweghịkwa nke bara uru.
Violence is risen up into a rod of wickedness; none of them [shall remain], nor of their multitude, nor of their wealth: neither shall there be eminency among them.
12 Mgbe ahụ abịala! Ụbọchị ahụ abịakwala nso. Ka onye na-azụ ahịa ghara ịṅụrị ọṅụ ka onye na-ere ere ghara iru ụjụ, nʼihi na ọnụma ahụ dịrị igwe mmadụ niile.
The time is come, the day draweth near: let not the buyer rejoice, nor the seller mourn: for wrath is upon all the multitude thereof.
13 Onye rere ahịa agaghị enwetaghachi ngwa ahịa nke erere ere ọ bụladị dịka onye rere na onye zụrụ na-adị ndụ. Nʼihi na ọhụ nke a gbasara igwe mmadụ niile bụ nke a na-apụghị ịgbanwe. Nʼihi mmehie ha niile, o nweghị onye nʼime ha nke pụrụ ichebe ndụ ya.
For the seller shall not return to that which is sold, although they be yet alive: for the vision is touching the whole multitude thereof, none shall return; neither shall any strengthen himself in the iniquity of his life.
14 “‘Ha afụọla opi ike, ha edoziela ihe niile ma o nweghị onye ga-aga ibu agha nʼihi na ọnụma m dịkwasịrị igwe mmadụ ahụ niile.
They have blown the trumpet, and have made all ready; but none goeth to the battle: for my wrath is upon all the multitude thereof.
15 Mma agha dị nʼezi; ajọ ọrịa na-efe efe na ụnwụ dịkwa nʼime. Onye nọ nʼọhịa ga-anwụ site na mma agha, ndị nọ nʼime obodo ukwu ka ụnwụ na ọrịa na-efe efe ga-eripịa.
The sword is without, and the pestilence and the famine within: he that is in the field shall die with the sword; and he that is in the city, famine and pestilence shall devour him.
16 Ma ndị gbapụrụ agbapụ ga-agbaga nọrọ nʼugwu. Ọ bụ dịka nduru nke ndagwurugwu, ha niile ga-asụ ude akwa, onye ọbụla nʼihi mmehie ha.
But they that escape of them shall escape, and shall be on the mountains like doves of the valleys, all of them mourning, every one in his iniquity.
17 Aka niile ga-akụda, ikpere niile ka a ga-eji amịrị nyụdee.
All hands shall be feeble, and all knees shall be weak as water.
18 Ha ga-eyikwasị akwa mkpe, oke ihe egwu ga-ekpuchi ha. Ọ bụkwa ihu niile ka ihere ga-ekpuchi, a ga-akpụchakwa isi niile.
They shall also gird themselves with sackcloth, and horror shall cover them; and shame shall be upon all faces, and baldness upon all their heads.
19 “‘Ha ga-etufu ọlaọcha ha niile nʼokporoụzọ niile, ọlaedo ha ga-aghọkwa ihe na-adịghị ọcha. Ọlaọcha na ọlaedo ha agaghị enwe ike napụta ha nʼụbọchị nrubiga oke nke oke iwe Onyenwe anyị. Ha agaghị eme ka agụ gharakwa ịgụ ha, maọbụ mee ka afọ ju ha, nʼihi na ọ bụụrụ ha ihe ịsọ ngọngọ nke ịdaba na mmehie.
They shall cast their silver in the streets, and their gold shall be as an unclean thing; their silver and their gold shall not be able to deliver them in the day of the wrath of the LORD; they shall not satisfy their souls, neither fill their bowels: because it hath been the stumblingblock of their iniquity.
20 Ihe ịchọ mma ha ghọọrọ ha ihe ịkpa nganga, ha jikwa ya mepụta arụsị rụrụ arụ ha dị iche iche. Ha ji ya metakwa oyiyi ihe arụ niile jọgburu onwe ya; ya mere, aga m eme ka ọ bụụrụ ha ihe rụrụ arụ.
As for the beauty of his ornament, he set it in majesty: but they made the images of their abominations [and] their detestable things therein: therefore have I made it unto them as an unclean thing.
21 Aga m ewere akụnụba ha nye ndị mba ọzọ dịka ihe apụnatara nʼagha, nyekwa ya ndị ajọ omume nke ụwa dịka ihe nkwata ndị ga-emerụ ya.
And I will give it into the hands of the strangers for a prey, and to the wicked of the earth for a spoil; and they shall profane it.
22 Aga m esite nʼebe ha nọ wezuga ihu m ndị ohi ga-emerụkwa ebe ahụ m kpọrọ ihe dị oke ọnụahịa. Ha ga-abata nʼime ya merụọkwa ya.
My face will I turn also from them, and they shall profane my secret [place]: and robbers shall enter into it, and profane it.
23 “‘Kwadoonụ ụdọ igwe. Nʼihi na ala ha jupụtara nʼigbu ọchụ na ịwụsa ọbara, obodo ahụ jupụtara nʼihe ike.
Make the chain: for the land is full of bloody crimes, and the city is full of violence.
24 Aga m akpọta mba ndị ahụ jọgburu onwe ha ka ha bịa nwetara onwe ha ụlọ ha niile. Aga m eme ka mpako nke ndị bụ dike kwụsị, meekwa ka ebe nsọ ha niile bụrụ ebe e merụrụ emerụ.
Wherefore I will bring the worst of the heathen, and they shall possess their houses: I will also make the pride of the strong to cease; and their holy places shall be profaned.
25 Mgbe ihe mmekpa ahụ bịara, ha ga-achọ udo ma o nweghị nke ga-adị.
Destruction cometh; and they shall seek peace, and there shall be none.
26 Mbibi ga-esochi mbibi, akụkọ na-enweghị isi ga-esochikwa akụkọ na-enweghị isi. Ha ga-agagharị na-achọ ọhụ site nʼaka onye amụma, ntụziaka onye nchụaja ga-akwụsị, ndụmọdụ nke ndị okenye agaghị adịkwa.
Mischief shall come upon mischief, and rumour shall be upon rumour; and they shall seek a vision of the prophet; but the law shall perish from the priest, and counsel from the ancients.
27 Eze ga-eru ụjụ, nwa eze ga-eyikwasị ịda mba nke obi dịka uwe, aka ga-ama ndị ala ahụ niile jijiji nʼihi egwu. Aga m emeso ha dịka omume ha si dị, aga m ekpekwa ha ikpe dịka ihe ha kwenyeere si dị. “‘Mgbe ahụ, ha ga-amata na mụ onwe m bụ Onyenwe anyị.’”
The king shall mourn, and the prince shall be clothed with desolation, and the hands of the people of the land shall be troubled: I will do unto them after their way, and according to their deserts will I judge them; and they shall know that I am the LORD.
