Ezekiel 31
1 Ket napasamak nga iti maikasangapulo ket maysa a tawen, iti umuna nga aldaw iti maikatlo a bulan, immay kaniak ti sao ni Yahweh a kunana,
Now it came to pass in the eleventh year, in the third month, on the first day of the month, that the word of Jehovah came to me, saying:
2 “Anak ti tao, ibagam kenni Faraon nga ari ti Egipto, ken kadagiti adipenna iti aglikmutna, ‘Iti kinabilegmo, siasino ti kaiyaspingam?
Son of man, say to Pharaoh, king of Egypt, and to his multitude: To whom art thou like in thy greatness?
3 Kitaenyo! Ti Asiria ket kasla maysa a sedro iti Lebanon nga addaan kadagiti narangpaya a sanga, maysa a narukbos iti kakaykayoan, ken kasta unay ti katayagna! Ket ti tuktokna ket adda iti ngatoen dagiti sangana.
Behold, the Assyrian was a cedar upon Lebanon, with fair branches; An overshadowing thicket, high of stature; And his top was among thick boughs.
4 Adu a danum ti nangpatayag iti daytoy; ti danum iti ubbog ti nangpadakkel iti daytoy. Nagayus dagiti karayan iti paset ti aglawlaw daytoy, ta ti panagayus dagitoy ket dimmanon kadagiti amin a kaykayo iti tay-ak.
The waters made him great; the deep waters made him high; Their streams went around their plantation, And sent forth their channels to all the trees of the field.
5 Ti kinangato daytoy ket nangatngato pay ngem iti aniaman kadagiti kayo iti tay-ak, ken dagiti sanga daytoy ket nagadu unay; rimmangpaya pay dagiti sangana gapu iti nabuslon a danum bayat a dumakdakkel dagitoy.
Therefore his height was exalted Above all the trees of the field. And his boughs were multiplied, and his branches became long, Because of the abundance of water when he shot forth.
6 Tunggal billit iti tangatang ket nagumok kadagiti sanga daytoy, bayat a tunggal parsua nga agnanaed iti tay-ak ket naganak iti siruk dagiti narukbos a sanga daytoy. Amin dagiti adu a nasion ket nagnaed iti siruk daytoy.
In his boughs all the birds of heaven made their nests, And under his branches all the beasts of the field brought forth their young; And under his shadow dwelt all the great nations.
7 Ta napintas unay daytoy gapu iti kinangayed ken iti kinarangpaya dagiti sanga daytoy, ta dagiti ramut ket adda iti ayan ti nabuslon a danum!
Thus was he beautiful in his greatness, in the length of his branches; For his root was by many waters.
8 Dagiti sedro iti minuyongan ti Dios ket saan a maiyasping iti daytoy! Awan kadagiti kayo nga igos ti maipada kadagiti sanga daytoy, ken awan kadawyan a kayo a makaasping kadagiti santakna. Awan kayo iti minuyongan ti Dios ti maipada iti kinapintas daytoy!
The cedars in the garden of God could not hide him; The cypress-trees were not like his boughs, And the plane-trees were not like his branches. Not any tree in the garden of God Was like to him in his beauty.
9 Pinapintasko daytoy babaen kadagiti adu a sanga daytoy; ket amin dagiti kayo iti Eden nga adda iti minuyongan ti Dios ket inapalanda daytoy!
I made him beautiful in the multitude of his branches, So that all the trees of Eden, which were in the garden of God, envied him.
10 Isu a kastoy ti kuna ti Apo a ni Yahweh: Gapu ta natayag unay daytoy, ken gapu ta inngatona ti tuktok ti kayona iti ngatoen dagiti sanga ken ti pusona ket naingato iti kasta unay a kangato—
Therefore thus saith the Lord Jehovah: Because he lifted himself up in stature, And shot up his top among the thick boughs, And his heart was lifted up on account of his height,
11 Isu nga inyawatko isuna iti ima ti kabibilegan a mangiturturay kadagiti nasion! Nagtignay daytoy a mangiturturay iti maibusor kenkuana ket pinapanawna isuna gapu iti kinadangkesna!
Therefore I delivered him into the hand of the mighty one of the nations, To deal hardly with him; I drave him out for his wickedness;
12 Dagiti naranggas a ganggannaet iti amin a nasion ket pinukanda ken binaybay-anda daytoy. Natinnag dagiti sangana kadagiti bantay ken kadagiti tanap, ken dagiti babassit a sangana ket natukkol ket naregreg iti amin a waig iti daga. Ket amin dagiti nasion iti daga ket rimuar manipud iti linongna ket pinanawanda isuna.
And strangers, the terrible of the nations, cut him off and cast him away. Upon the mountains and in all the valleys his branches fell; And his boughs were broken in all the valleys of the land. And all the nations of the earth withdrew from his shadow and left him;
13 Amin dagiti billit iti tangatang ket nagbatay iti puon daytoy a kayo, ken amin dagiti atap nga ayup iti tay-ak ket nagtugaw kadagiti sanga daytoy.
Upon his ruin dwelt all the birds of the heavens, And upon his branches were all the beasts of the forest.
14 Napasamak daytoy tapno awanton ti dadduma a masibsibugan a kayo ti dumakkel iti kasta a katayag, tapno saanda nga ingato ti tuktok ti kayoda iti ngatoen dagiti sanga, ta awanton ti sabali pay a kayo a masibsibugan a dumakkel manen iti kasta a katayag. Ta naipaimada amin iti patay iti kababaan a paset ti daga, iti nagtetengngaan dagiti tattao iti sangkataoan a bimmaban iti abut.
To the end that none of all the trees by the waters Might exalt themselves for their stature, Nor shoot up their top among the thick boughs, And that none of the trees that drink water should cleave to them on account of their height; For all of them are delivered to death, to the lower parts of the earth, In the midst of the sons of men, To them that have gone down to the pit.
15 Kastoy ti kuna ti Apo a ni Yahweh: Iti aldaw a naipababa isuna iti Seol, inyegko ti panagladingit iti lubong. Ginaburak ti adalem a danum iti rabawna, ken inatianak dagiti danum iti taaw. Pinasardengko ti napigsa a panagayus dagiti danum, ken inyegko ti panagladingit iti Lebanon para kenkuana! Isu nga amin dagiti kayo iti tay-ak ket nagladingit para kenkuana. (Sheol h7585)
Thus saith the Lord Jehovah: In the day when he went down to the grave, I caused the deep to mourn, I covered it for him; I restrained on account of him the streams, and the great waters were kept back; And I caused Lebanon to mourn for him, And all the trees of the field fainted for him. (Sheol h7585)
16 Inyegko ti panagkintayeg kadagiti nasion iti kanarpaak ti pannakatuangna, idi imbellengko isuna iti Seol a kaduana dagiti bimmaba iti abut! Ket liniwliwak dagiti amin a kayo iti Eden iti kababaan a paset ti lubong! Dagitoy ti kangrunaan a mapilpili ken kasasayaatan a kayo iti Lebanon, dagiti kayo a masibsibugan iti adu a danum! (Sheol h7585)
At the sound of his fall I made the nations to shake, When I cast him down to the grave, To them that have gone down to the pit; And all the trees of Eden, The choice and best of Lebanon, Even all that drink water, Were comforted in the lower parts of the earth. (Sheol h7585)
17 Ta bimmabada met laeng a kaduada isuna iti seol, kadagidiay a napapatay babaen iti kampilan! Dagitoy dagiti napipigsa a takiagna, dagidiay a nasion a nagnaed iti linongna. (Sheol h7585)
They also went down into the grave with him, To them that have been slain with the sword; They also that were his arm, That dwelt under his shadow among the nations. (Sheol h7585)
18 Ania kadagiti kayo iti Eden ti kapadam iti dayag ken kinaindaklan? Ta maipababakanto a kaduam dagiti kayo iti Eden iti kababaan a paset ti lubong, a kaduam dagiti saan a nakugit; makipagnaedkanto kadagiti napapatay babaen iti kampilan! Daytoy ket ni Faraon ken dagiti amin nga adipenna! —kastoy ti pakaammo ti Apo a ni Yahweh!’’’
To whom art thou thus like in glory and greatness among the trees of Eden? Thou shalt be brought down with the trees of Eden To the lower parts of the earth; Thou shalt lie down in the midst of the uncircumcised, With them that are slain by the sword. Thus shall it be with Pharaoh and all his multitude, Saith the Lord Jehovah.
