Ezekiela 29
1 Tamin’ ny andro faharoa ambin’ ny folo tamin’ ny volana fahafolo tamin’ ny taona fahafolo dia tonga tamiko ny tenin’ i Jehovah nanao hoe:
In the tenth year, in the tenth month, on the twelfth day of the month, the word of Jehovah came to me, saying,
2 Ry zanak’ olona, manandrifia an’ i Farao, mpanjakan’ i Egypta, ka maminania ny hamelezana azy mbamin’ i Egypta rehetra.
"Son of man, set your face against Pharaoh king of Egypt, and prophesy against him and against all Egypt.
3 Mitenena, ka ataovy hoe: Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah Tompo: Indro, avy hamely anao Aho, ry Farao, mpanjakan’ i Egypta, ilay dragona makadiry mamitsaka ao amin’ ny Neiliny, dia ilay efa nanao hoe: Ahy ny Neiliko, fa izaho no namorona azy ho an’ ny tenako.
Speak and say, 'Thus says Jehovah: "Look, I am against you, Pharaoh king of Egypt, the great monster that lies in the midst of his rivers, that has said, 'My river is my own, and I have made it for myself.'
4 Ary hasiako farango ny valanoranonao, sady hampiraiketiko amin’ ny kiranao ny hazandrano ao amin’ ny Neilinao, dia hampiakariko avy eo afovoan’ ny Neilinao ianao, ary ny hazandrano rehetra amin’ ny Neilinao dia hiraikitra amin’ ny kiranao.
I will put hooks in your jaws, and I will make the fish of your rivers stick to your scales; and I will bring you up out of the midst of your rivers, with all the fish of your rivers which stick to your scales.
5 Ary hariako any an-efitra ianao, dia ianao sy ny hazandrano rehetra avy amin’ ny Neilinao; hitsitsitra eny an-tanety ianao ka tsy hovorina na hangonina; Efa nomeko hohanin’ ny bibi-dia sy ny voro-manidina ianao.
I'll cast you forth into the wilderness, you and all the fish of your rivers. You'll fall on the open field. You won't be brought together, nor gathered. I have given you for food to the animals of the earth and to the birds of the sky.
6 dia ho fantatry ny mponina rehetra any Egypta fa Izaho no Jehovah, satria efa tehina volotara ho an’ ny taranak’ Isiraely izy.
All the inhabitants of Egypt will know that I am Jehovah, because they have been a staff of reed to the house of Israel.
7 (Nony mandray anao amin’ ny tànany izy, dia folaka ianao, ka voatsindronao ny helik’ izy rehetra; Ary nony mitehina aminao izy, dia tapaka ianao ka mampilefidefitra ny valahan’ izy rehetra.)
When they took hold of you with their hand, you splintered and dislocated their shoulders; and when they leaned on you, you shattered and caused their legs to be unsteady."
8 Dia izao no lazain’ i Jehovah Tompo: Indro, hahatonga sabatra hamely anao Aho, ka hofongorako tsy ho aminao ny olona sy ny biby.
"'Therefore thus says Jehovah: "Look, I will bring a sword on you, and will cut off man and animal from you.
9 Ary ny tany Egypta ho rava sy lao; Ka dia ho fantatra fa Izaho no Jehovah. Satria hoy izy: Ahy Neily, ary izaho no nanao azy,
The land of Egypt shall be a desolation and a waste; and they shall know that I am Jehovah. Because he has said, 'The river is mine, and I have made it;'
10 Dia, indro, avy hamely anao sy ny Neilinao Aho, ary ny tany Egypta hataoko lao tokoa, eny, sady ho lao no ho rava, hatrany Migdola ka hatrany Syena, dia hatramin’ ny sisin’ i Etiopia.
therefore, look, I am against you, and against your rivers, and I will make the land of Egypt an utter waste and desolation, from the tower of Syene even to the border of Ethiopia.
11 Tsy hodiavin-tongotr’ olona ny tany, ary ny tongo-biby aza tsy handia azy, sady tsy honenana efa-polo taona izy.
No foot of man shall pass through it, nor foot of animal shall pass through it, neither shall it be inhabited forty years.
12 Ary hataoko tany rava dia rava ny tany Egypta, ary ho lao dia ho lao efa-polo taona ny tanànany; Eny, haeliko ho any amin’ ny firenena samy hafa ny Egyptiana, ary hahahako any amin’ ny tany samy hafa.
I will make the land of Egypt a desolation in the midst of the countries that are desolate; and her cities among the cities that are laid waste shall be a desolation forty years; and I will scatter the Egyptians among the nations, and will disperse them through the countries."
13 Fa izao no lazain’ i Jehovah Tompo: Rehefa afaka efa-polo taona, dia hangoniko avy any amin’ ny firenena izay nielezany ny Egyptiana:
"'For thus says Jehovah: "At the end of forty years will I gather the Egyptians from the peoples where they were scattered;
14 Ary haveriko avy amin’ ny fahababoany izy, ka hampodiko any amin’ ny tany Patrosa, tany nihaviany, izy; Ary ho fanjakana ambany Egypta;
and I will bring back the captivity of Egypt, and will cause them to return into the land of Pathros, into the land of their birth; and they shall be there a base kingdom.
15 Eny, ho ambany noho ny fanjakana hafa izy ka tsy hisandratra ambonin’ ny firenena hafa intsony; Fa hohakeleziko izy ka tsy hampanompo ny firenena intsony.
It shall be the base of the kingdoms; neither shall it any more lift itself up above the nations: and I will diminish them, that they shall no more rule over the nations.
16 Dia tsy ho tokin’ ny taranak’ Isiraely intsony izy ho fampahatsiarovana ny helony amin’ ny andehanan’ ireo hanaraka azy; Ka dia ho fantatra fa Izaho no Jehovah Tompo.
It shall be no more the confidence of the house of Israel, bringing iniquity to memory, when they turn to look after them: and they shall know that I am Jehovah."'"
17 Ary tamin’ ny andro voalohany tamin’ ny volana voalohany tamin’ ny taona fahafito amby roa-polo dia tonga tamiko ny tenin’ i Jehovah nanao hoe:
It came to pass in the seven and twentieth year, in the first month, in the first day of the month, the word of Jehovah came to me, saying,
18 Ry zanak’ olona, mafy ny fanompoana izay nampanaovin’ i Nebokadnezara, mpanjakan’ i Babylona, ny miaramilany tamin’ ny namelezany an’ i Tyro, ka efa samy tonga sola avokoa ny lohany, sady niendaka ny sorony, nefa tsy nahazo karama avy tany Tyro izy sy ny miaramilany noho ny fanompoana izay nataony tamin’ ny namelezany azy.
"Son of man, Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon caused his army to serve a great service against Tyre: every head was made bald, and every shoulder was worn; yet had he no wages, nor his army, from Tyre, for the service that he had served against it.
19 Koa izao no lazain’ i Jehovah Tompo: Indro, homeko an’ i Nebokadnezara, mpanjakan’ i Babylona, ny tany Egypta, dia halainy ny hareny, ary hobaboiny izay hita ao, ka hataony sambotra izay azo ao, koa izany no ho karaman’ ny miaramilany.
Therefore thus says Jehovah: 'Look, I will give the land of Egypt to Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon; and he shall carry off her multitude, and take her spoil, and take her prey; and it shall be the wages for his army.
20 Ho valin’ ny fanompoana nataony tany Tyro no nanomezako azy ny tany Egypta, satria nataony ho Ahy izany, hoy Jehovah Tompo.
I have given him the land of Egypt as his recompense for which he served, because they worked for me,' says Jehovah.
21 Amin’ izany andro izany dia hampitsimoka tandroka ho an’ ny taranak’ Isiraely Aho, ary hampiloahiko vava eo aminy ianao; ka dia ho fantatra fa Izaho no Jehovah.
'In that day will I cause a horn to bud forth to the house of Israel, and I will give you the opening of the mouth in their midst; and they shall know that I am Jehovah.'"
