Ezekiel 28
1 Ket immay kaniak ti sao ni Yahweh a kunana,
[Then] Yahweh gave me another message. [He said]:
2 “Anak ti tao, ibagam iti mangiturturay iti Tiro, 'Kastoy ti kuna ti Apo a ni Yahweh: Napalangguad ti pusom! Kinunam, “Maysaak a dios! Agtugawak iti tugaw dagiti dios iti tengnga ti baybay!” Uray no maysaka a tao ken saan a Dios, pagbalbalinem ti pusom a kas iti puso ti dios;
“You human, give to the king of Tyre this message from [me], Yahweh the Lord: ‘You have very proudly claimed, “I am a god! I sit on a throne of a god [in a city on an island] in the sea!” You boast that you are a god; but you are only a man, not a god.
3 ipagpagarupmo a nasirsiribka ngem ni Daniel, ken ipagpagarupmo nga awan palimed a mangpasiddaaw kenka!
[You think that] you are wiser than Daniel was, [and you think that] you can understand every secret.
4 Pinabaknangmo ti bagim babaen iti kinasirib ken kinasaririt, ken nagidulinka iti balitok ken pirak kadagiti pagiduldulinam!
By being wise and understanding [a lot], you have become [very] rich; you have acquired much gold and silver for your treasuries.
5 Babaen iti kasta unay a kinasirib ken babaen iti pannakinegosiom, pinaadum ti kinabaknangmo, isu a napalangguad ti pusom gapu iti kinabaknangmo!
[Yes, it is true that] by trading wisely, you have been enabled to become very rich, and because you are rich, you have become very proud.
6 Ngarud, kastoy ti kuna ti Apo a ni Yahweh: Gapu ta pinagbalinmo ti pusom a kas iti puso ti maysa a dios,
Therefore, this is what Yahweh the Lord says: “Because you think that you are as wise as a god,
7 mangiyegakto ngarud kadagiti ganggannaet a bumusor kenka, nakabutbuteng a lallaki manipud kadagiti dadduma a nasion! Ket iyegda dagiti kampilanda a maibusor iti kinalatak ti kinasiribmo, ket rugitandanto ti dayagmo!
I will [now] bring a foreign [army] to attack your [country], an army that causes other nations to be terrified. They will pull out their swords to strike you, [you who think that] [IRO] you have marvelous/great wisdom, and they will destroy all your beautiful things.
8 Ipandakanto iti abut, ket mataykanto a kas iti ipapatay dagiti natay iti tengnga dagiti baybay!
They will bring you down to your grave; you will die violently like [MET] those who died in the sea.
9 Maibagamto kadi iti sangoanan ti mangpapatay kenka a, “Maysaak a dios”? Maysaka a tao saan ket a Dios, ket maipaimakanto iti mangrangrangkay kenka!
Then you will certainly not [RHQ] say to those who are killing you, 'I am a god!' [because they will know that] you are not a god; you are only a man.
10 Babaen iti ima dagiti ganggannaet, mataykanto a kas iti ipapatay dagiti saan a nakugit ta imbagak daytoy—kastoy ti pakaammo ti Apo a ni Yahweh!'''
You will die like other people who are unacceptable to me die, killed by foreigners.” [That will surely happen because] I, Yahweh, have said it.’”
11 Immay manen kaniak ti sao ni Yahweh a kunana,
Yahweh also gave me this message:
12 “Anak ti tao, dung-awam ti ari ti Tiro ken ibagam kenkuana, 'Kastoy ti kuna ti Apo a ni Yahweh: Sika ti pagulidanan ti awan kurangna, napnoan iti kinasirib ken awan pagkurangan ti kinapintasmo!
“You human, sing a sad/funeral song about the king of Tyre. Say to him, ‘This is what Yahweh the Lord says: [“You thought that] [IRO] you were completely perfect, extremely wise and handsome.
13 Addaka idi idiay Eden, ti minuyongan ti Dios! Nagarwatka iti amin a kita ti napateg a bato: karnelia, chrysolite, ken onix! Topasio, malachite, ken jaspe! Zafiro, esmeralda, ken berilo! Balitok dagiti nakaikargaan dagitoy a batbato! Naisagana dagitoy iti aldaw ti pannakaparsuam tapno isuotmo dagitoy!
You [had a wonderful life, as though] you were in my [beautiful] garden in Eden. Your [clothes] were decorated with many [HYP] kinds of very valuable stones— ruby, topaz, emerald, chrysolite, onyx, jasper, turquoise, and beryl [stones]. Those stones were set/placed in gold [mountings]. They were prepared for you on the day that you were born.
14 Insaadka iti nasantoan a bantay ti Dios kas iti kerubin a pinulotak a mangbantay iti sangkataoan! Addaka idi iti nagtetengngaan dagiti rumimatrimat a batbato a nagnaam.
I appointed [DOU] you to be like [MET] a strong angel to guard the people. [It was as though I put] you on my holy mountain, and you walked among fiery stones.
15 Napudnoka kadagiti wagasmo manipud iti aldaw a naparsuaka agingga a rinugiam ti nagbasol.
You were completely good in all that you did, from the day that you were created/born, until you [started to] do wicked things.
16 Iti kaadu ti inegosiom napnoka iti kinaranggas, isu a nagbasolka! Imbellengka a kas narugitan manipud iti bantay ti Dios ken dinadaelka, sika, kerubin a guardia, manipud kadagiti rumimatrimat a batbato.
[Then] you became busy trading things, and you started to act violently, and you sinned. So I caused you to be disgraced; and the angel who was guarding you forced you to leave my holy mountain, forced you to leave your place among those fiery stones.
17 Napalangguad ti pusom gapu iti kinapintasmo; dinadaelmo ti kinasiribmo gapu iti dayagmo! Impababaka iti daga! Insaadka iti sangoanan dagiti ari tapno makitadaka!
You were extremely proud because you were very handsome. Because you loved beautiful things, you did things that wise people do not do. [So] I threw you to the ground, and allowed [other] kings who saw you to laugh at you.
18 Gapu kadagiti adu a basolmo ken ti panangluklukom iti pannakinegosiom, rinugitam dagiti nasantoan a lugarmo! Isu a nangparuarak iti apuy manipud kenka; uramennakanto daytoy. Pagbalinenkanto a dapu iti daga iti imatang dagiti amin a kumitkita kenka.
By committing many sins and by trading things dishonestly, you caused your places of worship to become unacceptable to me. So I caused a fire [to burn down your city]. [Your city] was burned completely; the people who were watching it saw that only ashes remained on the ground.
19 Amin dagiti tattao a makaam-ammo kenka ket agpigergerto gapu iti butengda kenka; agbutengdanto, ket saankanton nga agbiag pay!'''
All the people who knew what your [city was like previously] were appalled. Now [your city] has disappeared, and it will not exist any more.”’”
20 Ket immay kaniak ti sao ni Yahweh a kunana,
[Then] Yahweh gave me another message. [He said],
21 “Anak ti tao, sumangoka iti Sidon ken agipadtoka a maibusor kenkuana!
“You human, turn toward Sidon [city], and declare the terrible things that will happen to it.
22 Ibagam, 'Kastoy ti kuna ti Apo a ni Yahweh: Adtoy! Bumusorak kenka, O Sidon!” Ta mapadayawanakto iti tengngam ket maammoanto dagiti tattaom a siak ni Yahweh inton ukomenka. Maipakitanto a nasantaonak babaen kenka!
Give [the people of Sidon] this message from [me], Yahweh the Lord: ‘I am your enemy, [you people of] Sidon, and by what I do to you, I will reveal that I am very great/glorious. When I punish you and reveal that I am holy, everyone who is watching that will know that it is I, Yahweh, [who have the power to do what I say that I will do].
23 Mangiyegakto kenka iti didigra ken dara kadagiti kalsadam, ken mapasagto iti tengngam dagiti nasugatan. Inton umay ti kampilan a maibusor kenka manipud iti sadinoman, ket maammoamto a siak ni Yahweh!
I will send a plague upon you, and I will send [enemies to come and] kill [MTY] you in your streets. They will attack you from every direction, and your people will be slaughtered inside the walls of your city. Then everyone will know that I, Yahweh, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].'
24 Ket awanton ti makatudok ken nasakit a siit iti balay ti Israel manipud kadagiti amin nga adda iti aglawlawna a mangum-umsi kadagiti tattaona, ket maammoandanto a siak ti Apo a ni Yahweh!'
No longer will those who live near you people of Israel [hurt you] like [MET] painful briers and sharp thorns [hurt people]. And then the Israeli people will know that I, Yahweh, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].”
25 Kastoy ti kuna ti Apo a ni Yahweh, “Inton ummongek ti balay ti Israel manipud kadagiti nadumaduma a puli dagiti tattao a nakaiwarawaraanda, ken inton makita dagiti nasion a nasantoanak. Kalpasanna, agtaengdanto kadagiti daga nga intedko iti adipenko a ni Jacob!
And this is [also] what Yahweh the Lord says: “Some day the people of Israel will live in their own land [again], the land that I gave to Jacob, who [also] served me. I will gather them from [distant] countries where I have scattered them. And I will reveal to the nations that I am holy among my people.
26 Ket agnaeddanto kenkuana a sitatalged ket mangibangonda kadagiti balbalay, agmulada kadagiti ubas ken agnaedda a sitatalged inton ukomek dagiti amin a mangum-umsi kadakuada manipud iti sadinoman a lugar; ket maammoanda a siak ni Yahweh a Diosda!'”
My people will live safely in Israel; they will build houses and plant vineyards. And when I punish the nearby nations that despised them, they will know that it is I, Yahweh their God, [who has done it].”
