1 Chịkọtaanụ onwe unu, e, chịkọtaanụ onwe unu, unu ndị mba ihe ihere dịrị.
Come ye togidere, be gaderid, ye folc not worthi to be loued,
2 Tupu ụkpụrụ ahụ ewere ọnọdụ, a chịpụ ụbọchị ahụ dịka igbugbo ọka nke ikuku na-ebufu, tupu iwe ọkụ Onyenwe anyị abịakwasị gị, tupu ụbọchị ọnụma nke Onyenwe anyị abịakwasị gị.
bifore that comaundyng brynge forth as dust passyng dai; bifore that wraththe of strong veniaunce of the Lord come on you, bifor that the dai of his indignacioun come on you.
3 Chọọnụ Onyenwe anyị, unu ndị niile dị umeala nʼobi nọ nʼala ahụ, unu bụ ndị na-eme ihe o nyere nʼiwu. Gbasoonụ ezi omume, gbasoonụ ịdị umeala nʼobi, ma eleghị anya, a ga-echebe unu nʼụbọchị iwe Onyenwe anyị.
Alle myelde men of erthe, seke ye the Lord, whiche han wrouyt the doom of hym; seke ye the iust, seke ye the mylde, if ony maner ye be hid in the dai of strong veniaunce of the Lord.
4 Nʼihi na o nwekwaghị ndị ga-ebi nʼobodo Gaza, obodo Ashkelọn ga-atọgbọrọ nʼefu. Nʼetiti ehihie ka a ga-ekpochapụ ndị niile bi nʼAshdọd; a ga-ehopukwa Ekrọn.
For Gasa schal be distried, and Ascalon schal be in to desert; thei schulen caste out Azotus in myddai, and Accaron schal be drawun out bi the root.
5 Ahụhụ dịrị unu ndị bi nʼakụkụ oke osimiri, unu bụ ndị Keret; okwu Onyenwe anyị na-emegide unu, Kenan, ala ndị Filistia. Ọ sịrị, “Aga m ala gị nʼiyi, ruo na ọ dịghị onye ga-afọdụ ndụ nʼime gị.”
Wo to you that dwellen in the litil part of the see, a folc of loste men. The word of the Lord on you, Canaan, the lond of Filisteis, and Y schal distrie thee, so that a dwellere be not;
6 Ala nke dị nʼakụkụ oke osimiri ahụ, ga-aghọ ebe ahịhịa jupụtara nye ndị ọzụzụ atụrụ na ọgba igwe ewu na atụrụ.
and the litil part of the see schal be reste of scheepherdis, and foldis of scheep.
7 Ala nke dị nʼakụkụ oke osimiri ga-aghọ ala nke ndị ahụ fọdụrụ na Juda, ebe ha ga-achọtara anụ ụlọ ha ahịhịa. Ha ga-anọkwa nʼụlọ ndị Ashkelọn nke tọgbọrọ nʼefu, dinaa ala zuru ike nʼoge uhuruchi. Onyenwe anyị Chineke ha ga-elekọta ha, mekwaa ka ha nwetaghachi ihe nketa ha niile.
And it schal be a litil part of hym, that schal be left of the hous of Juda, there thei schulen be fed in the housis of Ascalon; at euentid thei schulen reste, for the Lord God of hem schal visite hem, and schal turne awei the caitifte of hem.
8 “Anụla m okwu ọjọọ niile, nke ndị Moab, na ịkwa emo niile nke ndị Amọn, nụkwa ịbasị mba ike ha megide ndị nke m na-anya isi na ha ga-ewere ala ha.
Y herde the schenschip of Moab, and blasfemyes of sones of Amon, whiche thei seiden schentfuli to my puple, and thei weren magnefied on the termes of hem.
9 Nʼihi ya, dịka m na-adị ndụ,” otu a ka Onyenwe anyị, Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile, bụ Chineke Izrel, kwubiri ya, “aghaghị m ime ka Moab dịrị ka Sọdọm, mekwaa ka Amọn dịka Gọmọra. Ha ga-aghọ ala ebe ahịhịa na-adụ ogwu ogwu na-eru, ebe olulu nnu jupụtara, na ebe tọgbọrọ nʼefu ruo mgbe ebighị ebi. Ndị m, ndị fọdụrụ ga-akwakọrọ akụnụba ha, ndị fọdụrụ ndụ na mba m ga-eketa ala ha.”
Therfor Y lyue, seith the Lord of oostis, God of Israel, for Moab schal be as Sodom, and the sones of Amon as Gomorre; drynesse of thornes, and hepis of salt, and desert, til in to withouten ende. The relifs of my puple schulen rauysche hem, the residues of my folc schulen welde hem.
10 Ihe ndị a bụ ụgwọ ọrụ ha ga-anata nʼihi ịnya isi ha, na nʼihi nkọcha na ịkwa emo ha megide ndị nke Onyenwe anyị, Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile.
Sotheli this thing schal come to hem for her pride, for thei blasfemeden, and weren magnefied on the puple of the Lord of oostis.
11 Onye dị egwu ka Onyenwe anyị ga-abụ nʼebe ha nọ, mgbe ọ lara chi niile nke ụwa nʼiyi. Mba niile dị nʼebe dị anya ga-akpọ isiala nye ya, onye ọbụla nʼala nke aka ya nʼụwa niile.
The Lord schal be orible on hem, and he schal make feble alle goddis of erthe; and men of her place schulen worschipe hym, alle the ilis of hethene men.
12 “Unu ndị Itiopia, a ghaghị iji mma agha gbuo unu.”
But and ye, Ethiopiens, schulen be slayn bi my swerd.
13 Ọ ga-esetipụ aka ya megide ndị bi nʼakụkụ ugwu, laa Asịrịa nʼiyi. Ninive ga-aghọ ebe tọgbọrọ nʼefu, ọ ga-aghọkwa ala kpọrọ nkụ, dịka ọzara.
And he schal stretche forth his hond on the north, and schal leese Assur; and he schal putte the feir citee Nynyue in to wildirnesse, and into with out weie, and as desert.
14 Igwe anụmanụ dị iche iche na igwe ehi ga-amakpu nʼebe ahụ, ha na ihe e kere eke dị iche iche. Ikwighịkwighị nke ọzara na okwolo ga-anọ ọnọdụ abalị nʼisi ogidi ya niile ahụ. Ụda olu ha ka a ga-anụ site na mpio-ikuku, mkpọmkpọ aja ga-adị na mbata nke ọnụ ụzọ niile, ibo ọnụ ụzọ niile e ji osisi sida mee ga-egherekwa oghe.
And flockis, and alle the beestis of folkis, schulen ligge in the myddil therof; and onacratalus, and irchun schulen dwelle in threshfoldis therof; vois of the syngynge in wyndow, and crow in the lyntil, for Y schal make thinne the strengthe therof.
15 Nke a bụ obodo ukwu ahụ, nke na-aṅụrị ọṅụ oriri, nke na-ebikwa na-enweghị ihe egwu ọbụla; nke na-asị onwe ya, “Ọ bụ mụ onwe m! Ọ dịghị onye ọzọ ma ewezuga m.” Ma ugbu a, lee otu o si bụrụ ebe tọgbọrọ nʼefu; lee ka o si bụrụ ebe ụmụ anụ ọhịa bi. Onye ọbụla si nʼakụkụ ya na-agafe aghaghị ịma ọsụ, ma fufekwaa isi ya.
This is the gloriouse citee dwellynge in trist, which seide in hir herte, Y am, and ther is noon other more withouten me. Hou is it maad vnto desert, a couche of beeste; ech man that schal passe bi it, schal hisse, and schal moue his hond.
