Ezekiela 30
1 Ary tonga tamiko ny tenin’ i Jehovah nanao hoe:
The LORD’s word came again to me, saying,
2 Ry zanak’ olona, maminania, ka ataovy hoe: Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah Tompo: Midradradradrà ianareo! Indrisy ny andro!
“Son of man, prophesy, and say, ‘The Lord GOD says: “Wail, ‘Alas for the day!’
3 Fa efa antomotra ny andro, eny, antomotra ny andron’ i Jehovah, dia andro mandrahona sy fotoana hamaliana ny jentilisa izany.
For the day is near, even the LORD’s day is near. It will be a day of clouds, a time of the nations.
4 Ary hisy sabatra tonga any Egypta sy fangorohoroana fatratra any Etiopia, raha miampatrampatra any Egypta ny voatrabaka; Ary ho lasa ny hareny, sady ho rava ny fanorenany.
A sword will come on Egypt, and anguish will be in Ethiopia, when the slain fall in Egypt. They take away her multitude, and her foundations are broken down.
5 Etiopia sy Libya sy Lydia sy ny olona samy hafa firenena rehetra sy ny Kobiana sy ny zanaky ny tany vita fanekena dia hiaraka ho lavon-tsabatra aminy.
“‘“Ethiopia, Put, Lud, all the mixed people, Cub, and the children of the land that is allied with them, will fall with them by the sword.”
6 Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah: Ho lavo koa izay manohana an’ i Egypta, ary hietry ny fiavonavonan’ ny heriny; Hatrany Migdola ka hatrany Syena no ho lavon-tsabatra izy, hoy Jehovah Tompo.
“‘The LORD says: “They also who uphold Egypt will fall. The pride of her power will come down. They will fall by the sword in it from the tower of Seveneh,” says the Lord GOD.
7 Ho rava dia ho rava izy, ary ny tanànany ho lao dia ho lao.
“They will be desolate in the middle of the countries that are desolate. Her cities will be amongst the cities that are wasted.
8 Ka dia ho fantatra fa Izaho no Jehovah, raha mampirehitra afo any Egypta Aho, ka torotoro izay rehetra manampy azy.
They will know that I am the LORD when I have set a fire in Egypt, and all her helpers are destroyed.
9 Amin’ izany andro izany dia hisy iraka mivoaka avy amiko handeha an-tsambo hampahatahotra ny Etiopiana izay mitoetra tsy manahinahy, ka dia hangorohoro tahaka ny tamin’ ny andro namelezana an’ i Egypta izy; Fa, indro, avy izany.
“‘“In that day messengers will go out from before me in ships to make the careless Ethiopians afraid. There will be anguish on them, as in the day of Egypt; for, behold, it comes.”
10 Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah Tompo: Ny tànan’ i Nebokadnezara, mpanjakan’ i Babylona, no ho entiko mahafoana ny horakorak’ i Egypta.
“‘The Lord GOD says: “I will also make the multitude of Egypt to cease, by the hand of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon.
11 Izy sy ny vahoakany manaraka azy, dia ireo masiaka indrindra amin’ ny firenena, no ho entina handrava ny tany; Ary hanatsoaka ny sabany hamely an’ i Egypta ireny, ka ho feno faty ny tany.
He and his people with him, the terrible of the nations, will be brought in to destroy the land. They will draw their swords against Egypt, and fill the land with the slain.
12 Hahatankina an’ i Neily sy hivarotra ny tany ho eo an-tànan’ ny ratsy fanahy Aho, ary ny tanan’ ny fahavalo no ho entiko mandrava ny tany mbamin’ izay rehetra ao aminy; Izaho Jehovah no niteny izany.
I will make the rivers dry, and will sell the land into the hand of evil men. I will make the land desolate, and all that is therein, by the hand of foreigners. I, the LORD, have spoken it.”
13 Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah Tompo: Horavako koa ny sampy, ary hatsahatro ny andriamani-tsi-izy ao Memfisa; ary tsy hisy mpanjaka intsony amin’ ny tany Egypta;
“‘The Lord GOD says: “I will also destroy the idols, and I will cause the images to cease from Memphis. There will be no more a prince from the land of Egypt. I will put a fear in the land of Egypt.
14 Handrava an’ i Patrosa Aho sy hampirehitra afo any Zoana, ary hotanterahiko ny fitsarana an’ i No;
I will make Pathros desolate, and will set a fire in Zoan, and will execute judgements on No.
15 Hampidina ny fahatezerako amin’ i Sina, fiarovana mafy any Egypta, Aho, ary hofongorako ny vahoaka be any No.
I will pour my wrath on Sin, the stronghold of Egypt. I will cut off the multitude of No.
16 Hampirehitra afo any Egypta Aho; Hiolanolana fatratra Sina noho ny faharariany; Ho banga No, ary Memifisa dia hasian’ ny fahavalo antoandro.
I will set a fire in Egypt Sin will be in great anguish. No will be broken up. Memphis will have adversaries in the daytime.
17 Ny zatovon’ i Avena sy Pi-beseta ho lavon-tsabatra, sady ho lasan-ko babo ny ao.
The young men of Aven and of Pibeseth will fall by the sword. They will go into captivity.
18 Any Tapanesa dia ho maizina ny andro, raha tapahiko any ny ziogan’ i Egypta, ary hitsahatra ny fiavonavonan’ ny heriny; Ho voasaron’ ny rahona izy, sady ho lasan-ko babo ny zananivavy.
At Tehaphnehes also the day will withdraw itself, when I break the yokes of Egypt there. The pride of her power will cease in her. As for her, a cloud will cover her, and her daughters will go into captivity.
19 Toy izany no hanatanterahako ny fitsarana an’ i Egypta; Ka dia ho fantatra fa Izaho no Jehovah.
Thus I will execute judgements on Egypt. Then they will know that I am the LORD.”’”
20 Ary tamin’ ny andro fahafito tamin’ ny volana voalohany tamin’ ny taona fahiraika ambin’ ny folo dia tonga tamiko ny tenin’ i Jehovah nanao hoe:
In the eleventh year, in the first month, in the seventh day of the month, the LORD’s word came to me, saying,
21 Ry zanak’ olona, ny sandrin’ i Farao, mpanjakan’ i Egypta, dia efa notorotoroiko, ary he! tsy noharatoina mba ho sitrana izy, na nofehezina lamba, mba hanatanjaka azy hahatan-tsabatra.
“Son of man, I have broken the arm of Pharaoh king of Egypt. Behold, it has not been bound up, to apply medicines, to put a bandage to bind it, that it may become strong to hold the sword.
22 Koa izany no nanaovan’ i Jehovah Tompo hoe: Indro, efa hamely an’ i Farao, mpanjakan’ i Egypta, Aho, ka hotorotoroiko ny sandriny, na ny mbola matanjaka, na ny efa torotoro; Ary hampilatsaka ny sabatra eny an-tànany Aho.
Therefore the Lord GOD says: ‘Behold, I am against Pharaoh king of Egypt, and will break his arms, the strong arm, and that which was broken. I will cause the sword to fall out of his hand.
23 Dia haeliko ho any amin’ ny firenena samy hafa ny Egyptiana, ka hahahako any amin’ ny tany samy hafa.
I will scatter the Egyptians amongst the nations, and will disperse them through the countries.
24 Fa hampahatanjahiko kosa ny sandrin’ ny mpanjakan’ i Babylona, ka hataoko eny an-tànany ny sabatro; Fa hotorotoroiko ny sandrin’ i Farao, dia hitrona eo anatrehany toy ny fitronan’ ny voatrabaka izy.
I will strengthen the arms of the king of Babylon, and put my sword in his hand; but I will break the arms of Pharaoh, and he will groan before the king of Babylon with the groaning of a mortally wounded man.
25 Eny, hampahatanjahiko ny sandrin’ ny mpanjakan’ i Babylona, dia hiraviravy ny sandrin’ i Farao: Ka dia ho fantatra fa Izaho no Jehovah, raha hataoko eny an-tànan’ ny mpanjakan’ i Babylona ny sabatro, ka haingainy hamelezana ny tany Egypta.
I will hold up the arms of the king of Babylon, but the arms of Pharaoh will fall down. Then they will know that I am the LORD when I put my sword into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he stretches it out on the land of Egypt.
26 Dia haeliko ho any amin’ ny firenena samy hafa ny Egyptiana ka hahahako any amin’ ny tany samy hafa; Ka dia ho fantatra fa Izaho no Jehovah.
I will scatter the Egyptians amongst the nations and disperse them through the countries. Then they will know that I am the LORD.’”
