1 Nke a bụ amụma megide Ijipt: Lee, Onyenwe anyị na-abịa imegide Ijipt, ọ na-anọkwasịkwa nʼeluigwe ojii nke na-agba ọsọ. Arụsị ndị Ijipt niile na-ama jijiji nʼihu ya. Ọzọ, nʼihi ụjọ obi ndị Ijipt na-agbaze nʼime onwe ha.
The oracle on Egypt: Lo! Yahweh, riding upon a swift cloud, and he will enter Egypt, And the idols of Egypt shall shake at his presence, And, the heart of Egypt, shall melt within him;
2 “Aga m akpali ndị Ijipt mee ka ha lụọ ọgụ nʼetiti onwe ha. Nwanne ga-emegide nwanne ya, onye agbataobi ga-emegidekwa onye agbataobi ya; obodo ga-emegide isi obodo; otu a kwa, alaeze ga-emegidekwa alaeze.
And I will stir up Egyptians against Egyptians, And they shall fight—Every one against his brother and Every one against his neighbour, —City against city, and Kingdom against kingdom.
3 Ndị Ijipt ga-ada mba nʼime mmụọ ha, aga m eme ka nzube ha niile bụrụ ihe efu, ha ga-ajụta arụsị na mmụọ ndị nwụrụ anwụ ase, jụọkwa ndị na-ajụta mmụọ ọjọọ ase na ndị dibịa afa.
And the spirit of Egypt, shall vanish, within them, Yea the sagacity thereof, will I swallow up, —And they will seek Unto the idols and Unto them that mutter, and Unto them that have familiar spirits, and Unto the wizards;
4 Onyenwe anyị, bụ Onyenwe anyị, Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile ekwuola ya sị, Ọ bụ nʼaka eze afọ tara mmiri, nke na-adịghị eme ebere, ka m ga-enyefe ndị Ijipt, ka ọ bụrụ onye ga-achị ha.”
And I will deliver the Egyptians into the hand of a cruel lord, —And a fierce king shall rule over them, Declareth the Lord, Yahweh of hosts.
5 Mmiri dị nʼosimiri ga-atada; ọ ga-atakwa takọrọkwa.
And the waters shall be dried up from the great stream, —And the River, shall waste and be dry;
6 Ụzọ niile osimiri Ijipt ahụ si asọgharị ga-atalata bido nʼisi isi. Ahịhịa riidi niile na amị niile ga-akpọnwụsịkwa.
And rivers, shall stink, The canals of Egypt be shallow and waste, Reed and rush, be withered;
7 Ahịhịa ndụ niile dị nʼakụkụ Naịl ga-akpọnwụ, ifufe ga-efesakwa ha. Mkpụrụ niile a kụrụ nʼebe ahụ ga-ala nʼiyi, ihe niile ga-anwụ.
The meadows by the Nile, by the mouth of the Nile. And all that is sown in the Nile, Shall be dry, driven away, and not be!
8 Ndị ọkụ azụ ga-asụ ude, kwaa ụwa, na ndị niile na-atụba nko azụ nʼime Naịl, ndị na-agha ụgbụ nʼelu mmiri ga-ata ahụ.
Then shall the fishers, lament, And all shall mourn who cast in the Nile a hook, —And they who spread nets on the face of the waters shall languish;
9 Ndị nʼarụ ọrụ flakisi etiri eti ga-eru ụjụ, na ndị na-akpa akwa ọcha ka olileanya ha ga-agharịpụ.
Then shall turn pale The workers in combed flax, —and The weavers of white linen;
10 Obi ụtọ agaghị adịkwara ndị na-esite nʼịkpa akwa enweta ego, ha na ndị ọrụ dị iche iche a na-akwụ ụgwọ.
Then shall her pillars be crushed, —All who make wages, be bowed down in soul.
11 Naanị ndị nzuzu ka ndịisi Zoan bụ, ndụmọdụ na-enweghị isi ka ndị na-adụ eze Ijipt ọdụ na-enye. Ị ga-esi aṅaa gwa Fero, “Abụ m otu nʼime ndị maara ihe, onye si nʼagbụrụ ndị eze ochie”?
Surely, foolish, are the princes of Zoan, the wisest counsellors of Pharaoh, in counsel are brutish, —How can ye say unto Pharaoh, Son of the wise, am I Son of the kings of olden time?
12 Ebee ka ndị ikom gị ahụ maara ihe nọ ugbu a? Ka ha gosi gị ma meekwa ka ị maara, ihe Onyenwe anyị, Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile zubere megide Ijipt.
Where then are thy wise men? Pray let them tell thee! And let them know what Yahweh of hosts hath purposed on Egypt!
13 Ndịisi obodo Zoan aghọọla ndị nzuzu, ndịisi obodo Memfis aghọkwaala ndị e duhiere eduhie; ndị bụ nkume isi nkuku nke ndị ya niile eduhiela ndị Ijipt ụzọ.
Doting are the princes of Zoan, Deceived are the princes of Noph: They who are the corner-stone of her tribes, have led Egypt astray.
14 Onyenwe anyị awụnyela nʼime ha mmụọ nzuzu nke uche na-ezughị oke; nke mere ka Ijipt na-adagharị nʼihe niile ọ na-eme dịka onye ṅụbigara mmanya oke si adagharị nʼihe ọ gbọrọ.
Yahweh, hath infused in her midst, a spirit of perverseness, —And they have led Egypt astray into all his own doings, As a drunken man staggereth into his own vomit;
15 Ọ dịghị ihe Ijipt nwere ike ime, isi maọbụ ọdụ; alaka nkwụ maọbụ osisi achara.
And Egypt shall have nothing which can be done, Which head or tail, palm-top or rush, can do!
16 Nʼụbọchị ahụ, ndị ikom Ijipt ga-adị ka ndị inyom, ha ga na-ama jijiji nʼegwu nʼihi aka ahụ Onyenwe anyị, Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile weliri elu imegide ha.
In that day, shall Egypt be like unto women, —And shall start and tremble because of the brandishing of the hand of Yahweh of hosts, which he is about to brandish over it.
17 Ala Juda ga-ewetara ndị Ijipt oke egwu, oke ụjọ ga-atụ onye ọbụla akpọtaara aha Juda, nʼihi ihe Onyenwe anyị, Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile na-ezube megide ha.
Then shall the soil of Judah become, to Egypt, a terror; Every one to whom it is mentioned, will tremble, —Because of the purpose of Yahweh of hosts, which he is purposing against it.
18 Nʼụbọchị ahụ, obodo ise nʼime ala Ijipt ga-asụ asụsụ Kenan, ṅụọ iyi irubere Onyenwe anyị, Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile isi. Otu nʼime obodo ndị a ka a ga-akpọ Obodo anwụ.
In that day, shall there be five cities in the land of Egypt Speaking the language of Canaan, And swearing unto Yahweh of hosts, —The city of destruction, shall be the name of one!
19 Nʼụbọchị ahụ, ebe ịchụrụ Onyenwe anyị aja ga-adị nʼetiti ala Ijipt. A ga-ewukwa otu ogidi ncheta nye Onyenwe anyị nʼoke ala ha.
In that day, shall there be An altar unto Yahweh, in the midst of the land of Egypt, —And a pillar near the boundary thereof unto Yahweh;
20 Nke a ga-abụ ihe ama na ihe ngosi, na Onyenwe anyị, Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile nọkwa nʼIjipt. Mgbe ha kpọkuru Onyenwe anyị maka ndị na-emegbu ha, ọ ga-aza ha, ọ ga-ezitere ha onye nzọpụta, onye ga-azọpụta ha.
And it shall become a sign and a witness unto Yahweh of hosts in the land of Egypt, —For they will make outcry unto Yahweh, because of oppressors, That he would send them a saviour—and a great one Then will he deliver them.
21 Ya mere, Onyenwe anyị ga-eme ka ndị Ijipt mara onye ọ bụ, nʼụbọchị ahụ, ha ga-amata Onyenwe anyị, jirikwa ịchụ aja na onyinye fee ya. Ha ga-ekwe Onyenwe anyị nkwa debekwa ya.
Then will, Yahweh, make himself known, to the Egyptians, So shall the Egyptians know, Yahweh, in that day, —And they will offer a sacrifice and a present And will vow a vow unto Yahweh and will perform.
22 Onyenwe anyị ga-eti Ijipt ihe otiti, ma ọ ga-agwọkwa ha. Ndị Ijipt ga-alọghachikwute Onyenwe anyị, ọ ga-aṅakwa ntị nʼarịrịọ ha gwọọkwa ha.
And Yahweh, will plague Egypt, plague and heal, —And they will turn unto Yahweh And he will be entreated of them and will heal them.
23 Nʼụbọchị ahụ, a ga-enwe okporoụzọ atụliri atụli nke ga-esite na Ijipt ruo Asịrịa. Ndị Asịrịa ga-aga Ijipt, ndị Ijipt ga-agakwa Asịrịa, ndị Ijipt na ndị Asịrịa ga-eso fee ofufe.
In that day, shall there be a highway. from Egypt to Assyria, And, the Assyrians, shall come into Egypt, And, the Egyptians, into Assyria; And, the Egyptians shall serve, with the Assyrians.
24 Nʼụbọchị ahụ ka Izrel ga-abụ nke atọ imezu Ijipt na Asịrịa, bụrụ ngọzị nʼụwa.
In that day, shall, Israel, be, a third, with Egypt and with Assyria, —A blessing in the midst of the earth:
25 Onyenwe anyị, Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile ga-agọzi ha, na-asị, “Ka ngọzị dịrị Ijipt, ndị m, dịrị Asịrịa nke bụ akaọrụ m, na Izrel ihe nketa nke m.”
Whom Yahweh of hosts hath blessed saying, —Blessed, be My people—the Egyptians, And the work of my hands—the Assyrians, And mine own inheritance—Israel.
