Izikeli 31

1 Hagi Babilonima kinama ome hutama mani'nonkeno, 11nima hiankafumofona namba 3 ikantera, ese knazupa Ra Anumzamo'a amanage huno nasami'ne.

On the first day of the third month of the eleventh year, a message from the Lord came to me, saying,

2 Vahe'mofo mofavre Izikieliga, Isipi kini ne' Ferone sondia vahe'anena amanage hunka zamasamio, tamagra mika vahera zamagatereta, tusi hihamu vahe mani'naze.

“Son of man, tell Pharaoh king of Egypt and all his many people: Who is as great as you?

3 Hagi ko, Asiria vahe'mo'za Lebanoni sida zafagna hu'za knare'nare azankuna omente amente hazageno mago'a zafaramina tona huzmantene. Agra za'za huno amunagamu hampompi marerino, mika zafaramina zamagatere'ne.

Look at Assyria. It was like a cedar in Lebanon, with its beautiful branches providing shade in the forest. It was so high that its top reached the clouds.

4 Hagi ana zafamofona timo ne'zana nemigeno, mopa agu'afima me'nea timo ana zafa ne'zana amigeno zazara hu'ne. Hagi ana zafaramima tima ne'zamiana, timo mika zafafina nevuno tina nezamie.

Deep springs of water made it grow tall and sent streams all around it to water all the other trees.

5 E'ina hunegu ana zafamo'a mika zafaramina hageno agatenereno, rama'a azanku'nareno ani'na kuronkuro hu'ne. Na'ankure agra rama'a ti agafafintira eri'negu anara hu'ne.

It became really tall, higher than any other tree in the forest. Its branches grew thick and long because it was so well-watered.

6 Hagi maka namaramimo'za ana zafa azankunataminte nona eme negizageno, mika zaga kafamo'za ana zafa agafafi anentara eme kasente'naze. Hagi ana zafamofo turunapi mika zamagima me'nea vahe'mo'za kokantegatira enemanize.

All kinds of birds nested in its branches, while underneath it different wild animals had their young, and all the powerful nations lived in its shade.

7 Hagi ana zafamofona hentofa azankunatmi me'ne. Na'ankure ana zafamofo arafu'namo'za rama'a tima me'nefi amefenkame urami'za tina ani avazu nehaze.

It was beautiful and majestic with its long branches, because its roots reached down to the plentiful water.

8 Hagi Anumzamofo hozafima me'nea sida zafamo'za ana zafa gnara osazageno, meni zafane mago'a zafaramimo'za ana zafa gnara osu'naze. Anumzamofo hozafima me'nea zafamo'zanena ana zafa gnara osu'naze.

The cedars in God's garden were no match for it. No pine tree had such great branches, nor did any plane tree. No tree in God's garden was as beautiful.

9 Na'ankure Nagra ana zafa rama'a azankunataminu konariria huntogeno knare'za higeno, mika Anumzamofo hozafima me'nea zafaramimo'za kezmasane nehaze.

I made it beautiful with its many branches. All the trees of Eden in God's garden envied it.

10 E'ina hu'negu Ra Anumzana Agra Anumzamo'a amanage hu'ne, Na'ankure agra mika zafaramina zamagatereno amunagamuma mareri'nea zanku agra avufga ra hu'ne.

So this is what the Lord God says: Since it became so tall, reaching up into the clouds, it grew proud because of its height.

11 Ana hu'negu Nagra ana zafa nagotente'na namefi hunemina hankavenentake ha' vahe'mokizmi zamazampi zamavare antanenkeno, zamazeri havizantfa hugahie.

So I handed it over to the leader of a foreign nation who will punish it for its wickedness. I have thrown it out.

12 Hagi ruregati vahe'ma zamazeri haviza hu'arema vugota hu'naza kefo vahe'mo'za ana zafa antagi atre'naze. Hagi ana zafamofo azankuna'mo'a agonaramimpine, agupofine, krahopina hantagiramino mase'ne. Hagi ana zafa agafafima nemaniza vahe'mo'za atre'za vu'za e'za hu'naze.

Foreigners from the cruelest of all the nations chopped it down and left it lying there. Its branches lie fallen and broken in the mountains and valleys of the countryside. Everybody in earth came out of its shadow and abandoned it.

13 Hagi maka namaramimo'za anama antagitre zafa atupare nemanizageno, zagagafamo'za ana zafamofo azankunatamimofo agofetu vano hu'naze.

Birds came to live on its fallen trunk, and wild animals hid among its fallen branches.

14 E'inama hanigeno'a tinkenafima me'nea zafamo'za hage'za zaza hu'za mago'a zafaramina zamagate'nere'za zamavufaga rana osugahaze. Na'ankure zamagranena e'inahu kna hu'za frisaza vahe mani'nazanki'za, fri'za kerifima urami'za mani'naza vahe'ene umanigahaze.

This was in order that no other trees growing by the water would grow up so high and have their tops reach the clouds. This was so that no other trees, however much water they had, would be as tall as them, For they all will die and go down into earth, just like human beings who go down into the grave.

15 Hagi Ra Anumzana Agra Anumzamo'a amanage hie, sida zafamo'ma frino fri vahe kumapima urami'nea kna zupa, mopa agu'afima me'nea tintamina hanuge'za zavi krafa hu'za zamasunku nehanage'na, mika tintamina eri tanegahue. Anama hanige'za maka Lebanoni zafamo'za zamasunku huza zavi nete'nageno maka zafamo'za hagege hugahaze. (Sheol h7585)

This is what the Lord God says: On the day it was brought down to Sheol, I had the deep waters mourn for it; I stopped its rivers flowing; I held back all its waters. I covered Lebanon in darkness, and all the trees in the forest withered. (Sheol h7585)

16 Hagi ana zafama trakama huno'ma nemaseno vagri'ma hia agasasa kenu mago'a mopafi vahera Nagra zamazeri koro hu'noe. Hagi fri kumapima nevaza vahe'enema huntoge'noma nevige'za, Idenima me'naza zafamo'zane knare'nare zafama Lebanoni me'naza zafamo'zane, knare'ma hu'za tima e'neriza zafamo'zanena fri vahe kumapi mani'ne'za musena hu'naze. (Sheol h7585)

I made the nations tremble when they heard it fall, when I threw it down into Sheol with those who die. Then all the trees of Eden, the finest and best in Lebanon, all the trees that had plenty of water, were happy that this tree joined them in the earth below. (Sheol h7585)

17 Hagi ana zafamofo tonapima nemaniza, agri'enema erigaherafiza nemaniza vahe'mo'za bainati kazinteti'ma zamahe'naza vahe'ene magoka matipina urami'naze. (Sheol h7585)

They also went down with it into Sheol, to those who had been killed by the sword. They had been part of its army living in its shade among the nations. (Sheol h7585)

18 Hagi Ideni hozafima me'nea zafaramimpintira ina zafamo kagri knara huno za'zara huno ragi'ane zafa me'ne? Hagi kagra Ideni hozafima me'nea zafaramine, magoka fri vahe kumapina uramita zamagoza anoma taga osu' vahe'ma kazinteti'ma zamahazage'zama mase'naza kumapi vugahaze. Ama ana zantamina Ferone mika sondia vahe'are fore hugahie huno Ra Anumzamo'a hu'ne.

Who is as great and glorious as you among the trees of Eden? But you too will be brought down to the earth below to be with the trees of Eden. You will lie there with the heathen, with those killed by the sword. This is what will happen to Pharaoh and all his many people, declares the Lord God.”
