Izikeli 31

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

Then it came about in the eleventh year, in the third month, on the first day of the month, that the word of Yahweh 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, say to Pharaoh, the king of Egypt, and to his multitudes around him, 'In your greatness, who are you like?

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.

Behold! Assyria was a cedar in Lebanon with beautiful branches, giving shade to the forest, and the tallest in height, and the branches formed its treetop.

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.

Many waters made it tall; the deep waters made it huge. Rivers flowed all around its area, for their channels stretched out to all the trees in the field.

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.

Its great height was more than any of the other trees in the field, and its branches became very many; its branches grew long because of many waters as they grew.

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.

Every bird of the heavens nested in its branches, while every living thing of the field gave birth to its young under its foliage. All of the many nations lived under 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.

For it was beautiful in its greatness and the length of its branches, for its roots were in many waters.

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.

Cedars in the garden of God could not equal it. None among the cypress trees matched its branches, and the plane tree could not equal its boughs. There was no other tree in the garden of God that was like it in its beauty.

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 and all the trees of Eden that were in the garden of God 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.

Therefore the Lord Yahweh says this: Because it was tall in height, and it set its treetop between its branches, it lifted up its heart 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.

I have given it into the hand of a mighty one of the nations, to deal with it according to what its wickedness deserves. 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 who were the terror of all the nations cut it off and left it to die. Its branches fell on the mountains and all the valleys, and its boughs lay broken in all the ravines of the land. Then all the nations on earth came out from under its shade and they went away from it.

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

All the birds of the sky rested on the trunk of the fallen tree, and every animal of the field came to its 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 happened so that no other trees that grow by the waters will lift up their foliage to the height of the tallest trees, and that no other trees that grow beside the waters will reach up to that height. All of them have been assigned to death, to the earth below, among the children of humanity, with those that go down to the pit.

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)

The Lord Yahweh says this: On the day when the cedar went down to Sheol I brought mourning to the earth. I covered the deep waters over it, and I held back the ocean waters. I kept back the great waters, and I brought mourning to Lebanon for him. So all the trees of the field mourned because of it. (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 brought shuddering to the nations at the sound of its downfall, when I threw it down to Sheol with those who went down into the pit. So I comforted all the trees of Eden in the lowest parts of the earth. These had been the choicest and best trees of Lebanon; the trees that drank the waters. (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)

For they also went down with it to Sheol, to the ones who had been killed by the sword. These were its strong arm, those nations who had lived in its shade. (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.

Which of the trees in Eden was your equal in glory and greatness? For you will be brought down with the trees of Eden to the lowest parts of the earth among the uncircumcised; you will live with those who were killed by the sword.' This is Pharaoh and all of his multitudes—this is the Lord Yahweh's declaration.”
