Izikeli 17

1 Ra Anumzamo'a amanage huno nasmi'ne,

The word of Yahweh came to me, saying,

2 Vahe'mofo mofavremoka, fronka kema kasamisua nanekea Israeli vahera zamasmio.

“Son of man, present a riddle and speak a parable to the house of Israel.

3 Amanage hunka zamasamio, Mikozama Kegava Hu'nea Ra Anumzamo'a amanage hie hunka zamasamio, mago ra tumpamofona ra agekonarare hunte'negeno, azokamo'a za'za huno ruzahu ruzahu avonkrenakre huno konarari'amo'a agatere'nea tumpamo hareno Lebanoni zafafi vuno sida zafamofo amumpa ome nekafrie.

Say, 'The Lord Yahweh says this: A large eagle with large wings and long pinions, full of feathers, and that was multicolored went to Lebanon and took hold of the top of a cedar tree.

4 Hagi ana sida zafa amumpama akafriteno'a erino keonke'zama zagore'ma netraza vahe'mokizmi mopafi vuno, ana vahe'mokizmi rankumapi ome kri'ne.

It broke off the tips of the branches and took them to the land of Canaan; he planted it in a city of merchants.

5 Hagi ana'ma huteno'a ana tumpamo'a mago'a avimzana Israeli mopafintira erino vuno, knare huno tima'ane mopafi ome hankre'ne. Hagi anama hankre'neana, rama'a ti me'nefi wilo zafa hankreankna huno ome hankre'ne.

He also took some seed of the land and planted it in fertile soil. He placed it beside a large body of water like a willow.

6 Ana avimzamo'a hageno waini zafa sampreno, mopafi rafu'nare'ne. Hagi ana azankunamo'za eri arufagagi'za ana tumpama mani'nerega zamavugosa hunente'za, agata hage'za azankunara omere emere hu'naze.

Then it sprouted and became a spreading vine low to the ground. Its branches turned toward him, and its roots grew under it. So it became a vine and produced branches and sent out shoots.

7 Hagi ete mago ra tumpamofona anahukna huno ra agekona hunte'negeno, rama'a azoka me'ne. Hagi ana waini zafamofo arafu'naramine azankunatmimo'za ana tumpamo'a ti erino egahie hu'za zamagesa nentahi'za, rukrahe hu'za ana tumpama mani'nea kaziga zamavugosa hunte'naze.

But there was another great eagle with large wings and many feathers. Behold! This vine turned its roots toward the eagle, and it spread out its branches toward the eagle from the place it had been planted so it would be watered.

8 Hianagi ana waini zafama hankre'neana rama'a azankuna reno rama'a ragarami renenteno, knare waini zafa fore hinogu knare mopafi tinkenare hankre'ne.

It had been planted in good soil beside a large body of water so it would produce branches and sprout fruit, to become a magnificent vine.'

9 Hanki Ra Anumzana miko'zama kegavama hu'nea Anumzamo'a amanage hie hunka zamasamio, ana wainimo'a knare huno hageno marerino raga reontegahianki, Nagra rafuna'a eri vatitrenugeno raga reontenigeno a'ninamo'a hariri hanigeno osaparegahie. Nagra amuhoa osu'na fru hu'na eri vati tregahuankino, mago hankave vahe'mo'a eme vati otresigeno rama'a sondia vahe'mo'zanena eme vati otregahaze.

Say to the people, 'The Lord Yahweh says this: Will it prosper? Will it not be uprooted and stripped of its fruit so that it withers, and all its fresh growth will wither? No strong arm or many people will be needed to pull it out by its roots.

10 Hagi ana wainima ete vatinoma krisiana, knare huno hagegahifi ko? Ifi zage hanati kazigati'ma esia zaho'mo eme eri hagage hugahio? I'o, anama knare'ma huno hageno mareri'nea mopafi mani'neno hagage hugahie.

So behold! After it has been planted, will it grow? Will it not wither when the eastern wind touches it? It will completely wither away in the garden plot where it sprouted.'”

11 Hagi Ra Anumzamo'a amanage huno nasmi'ne,

Then the word of Yahweh came to me, saying,

12 Keontahi Israeli vahera amanage hunka zamasmio, Tamagra tumpamofo fronka kemofo agafa'a antahi ani' hu'nazafi? Babiloni kumate kini ne'mo'a Jerusalemi kumate eno, kini ne'ene ugagota kva vahe'araminena zamavareno Babiloni vu'ne hunka zamasamio.

“Speak to the rebellious house, 'Do you not know what these things mean? Behold! The king of Babylon came to Jerusalem and took her king and her princes and brought them to him in Babylon.

13 Hagi Juda kva vahe'mofo mofavre'ramimpinti mago ne' avreno ana ne'ene huhagerafi huvempage nehuno, agri agoragama mani'neno maka kema haniama antahimisigura huvempage hu'ne. Ana nehuno ana mopafima ugagotama hu'naza kva vahetmina zamavareno Babiloni kumate vu'ne.

Then he took a royal descendant, made a covenant with him, and brought him under an oath. He took away the powerful people of the land,

14 Hagi e'inama hu'neana Israeli vahe'mo'za hanaveti'za hara huonte'za, agri agorga mani'neza agri kema nevaririza mopazmire'ma manisagu huvempa kea hu'naze.

so the kingdom might become lowly and not lift itself up. By keeping his covenant the land will survive.

15 Hianagi Juda kini ne'mo'a Babiloni kini nera ha' arenenteno, ha'ma eme aza huza hanagu rama'a sondia vahetamine hosi afutaminena Isipi kumateti ome zamavarenka eno huno agri agi'ma erino Isipima unemania eri'za ne'a hunte'ne. Hagi ana antahintahi'amo'a ome knare hugahifi? E'i ana'ma hania zamo'a Babiloni kini ne'mofo azampintira rugraru vazigahifi? Nanekema huvempa huke huhagerafina'a kea ruhantgino atreno fregahifi?

But the king of Jerusalem rebelled against him by sending his ambassadors to Egypt to acquire horses and an army. Will he succeed? Will the one doing these things escape? If he breaks the covenant, will he escape?

16 Kasefa hu'na mani'noa Ra Anumzana Nagra hankavenentake Anumzamo'na huankino, tamage huno Juda kini ne'mo'a kinima azeri otigekema kema anakike huhagerafi huvempa kema hu'na'a kini ne'mofo kumapi Babiloni frigahie.

As I live!—this is the Lord Yahweh's declaration—he will surely die in the land of the king who made him king, the king whose oath he despised, and whose covenant he broke. He will die in the middle of Babylon.

17 Hagi Babiloni sondia vahe'mo'ma Juda vahe kuma'ma avazagi kagiza mani'neza ha'ma hanaza zama kuma keginamofo megi'ama mopama ante hihi hu'za mani'neza rama'a vahe'ma zamahe fri'zama nehanageno'a, Isipi kini ne' Fero'a hankave sondia vahe'a zamavareno egahianagi, zamaza osugahaze.

Pharaoh with his mighty army and a great company of men will not help him in battle, when ramps are constructed and siege walls are built up to cut off many lives.

18 Hagi Juda kini ne'mo'a kema ananekino huvempama hu'nea kea ruha'nentagino Babiloni kini ne'enema huhagerafi'nea kea ovariri'ne. Na'ankure agra azana ante nagamuteno huvempa huteno, ana kea ovariri'neankino ana knazana agate'oregahie.

For the king despised his oath by breaking the covenant. Behold, he reached out with his hand to make a promise and yet he did all these things. He will not escape.

19 E'ina hu'negu miko'zama kegava hu'noa Ra Anumzamo'na huankino, Nagri nagifima huhagerafi huvempa kema hu'neana ruhanentagino ovariri'neankina, Nagra ana nona'a knazana amigahue.

Therefore the Lord Yahweh says this: As I live, was it not my oath that he despised and my covenant that he broke? So I will bring his punishment on his head!

20 Nagra kukoni'a eri atranenkeno ana kukomo azerinige'na avre'na Babiloni kumate knazana ome amigahue. Na'ankure huvempama hu'nea kea rutagreno, Nagritera mani fatgo hunora omani'ne.

I will spread my net out over him, and he will be caught in my hunting net. Then I will bring him to Babylon and execute judgment on him there for his treason that he committed when he betrayed me!

21 Hagi hankave sondia vahe'aramina bainati kazinteti zamahe hana hanige'za, manisaza sondia vahe'mo'za maka kaziga atre'za panani hu'za fresagenka, Ra Anumzamo hu'nea kante amanara hie hunka kenka antahinka hugahane.

All of his refugees in his armies will fall by the sword, and the ones who remain will be scattered in every direction. Then you will know that I am Yahweh; I have declared this would happen.”

22 Hagi Mika'zama Kegava Hu'nea Ra Anumzamo'a amanage hu'ne, Nagra zaza sida zafamofo amumpa'a akafri'na, Israeli mopafima za'za huno mareri agatere'nea agonafi ome krigahue.

The Lord Yahweh says this, 'So I myself will take away the highest part of the cedar tree, and I will plant it away from its tender branches. I will break it off, and I myself will plant it on a high mountain.

23 Hianagi Israeli mopafima za'za huno mareri agatere'nesia agonafi ome krisugeno, hageno ome rahuno azankunatamina vuno eno huno ragaramina renenteno marerisa zafa fore hanigeno, agigu agigu namaramimo'za e'za ana sida zafa tonapinka nona eme ki'za manigahaze.

I will plant it on the mountains of Israel so it will bear branches and produce fruit, and it will become a majestic cedar so that every winged bird will live under it. They will nest in the shade of its branches.

24 Hagi zaza zafaramina eri atupa nehu'na, atupa zafaramina eri za'za nehu'na, kasefa zafaramina eri hagage nehu'na, hagage zafaramina eri kasefa hanenkeno kasefa huno hageno marerinke'za, Nagrikura Ra Anumza mani'ne hu'za zafaramimo'za ke'za antahi'za hugahaze. Nagra Ra Anumzamo'na huanki'na ana zana hugahue.

Then all the trees of the field will know that I am Yahweh. I bring down the high trees and I raise up the low trees. I wither the watered tree and I cause the dried tree to bloom. I am Yahweh, I have declared that this will happen; and I have done it.'”
