Ezekiela 28
1 Niheo amako indraike ty tsara’ Iehovà nanao ty hoe,
A message from the Lord came to me, saying,
2 O ana’ondatio, saontsio ty hoe ami’ty roandria’ i Tsore, Hoe ty nafè’ Iehovà Talè: Amy t’ie nañonjoñe ty tro’o, nanao ty hoe: izaho ro ‘ndrahare, mpiambesatse am-piambesan- ndrahare eo, anteñateñan-driak’ ao; te mone ondaty irehe fa tsy Andrianañahare, najado’o ho arofon’añahare ty tro’o;
“Son of man, tell the ruler of Tyre this is what the Lord God says: You are so proud of yourself, saying, ‘I'm a god! I sit on my throne like a god in the middle of the sea.’ But you're only a man. You're not a god, even though you think you are one.
3 toe mahihitse te amy Daniele irehe; tsy eo ty bisibisike hahafietaha’ iareo ama’o;
You even think you're wiser than Daniel and there's no secret that's hidden from you!
4 ami’ty hilala’o naho ami’ty faharendreha’o ty nanontona’o vara, naho namoria’o volamena naho volafoty an-driha’o ao;
Yes, you have used your wisdom and cleverness to make yourself rich, collecting plenty of gold and silver for your treasury.
5 ty haliforan-kihi’o, o fibalibali’oo ty nampitomboa’o fanaña, vaho mitoabotse ty tro’o ty amo varao.
You became wealthy through your superb trading skills, but your wealth only made you proud.
6 Aa le hoe ty nafè’ Iehovà Talè amy te nampijadoñe’o ho ndrahare ty tro’o:
So this is what the Lord God says: Because you think that you're a god,
7 Ingo arè te hampihitrifeko ama’o ty ambahiny, ondaty maozatse amo kilakila’ ndatio, le ho tarihe’ iereo ami’ty hafanjakan-kihi’o o fibara’eo, vaho ho tivà’ iareo ty fireandrea’o.
watch as I bring foreigners to attack you. They are more cruel than any other nation. They will use their swords to destroy you and your wonderful wisdom; they will humble your proud glory.
8 Hagado’ iareo mb’an- tsikeokeok’ ao irehe, hihomak’ ami’ty fivetraha’ o zinamañe an-teñateñan-driakeo.
They will drag you down into the grave. You will die horribly out there in the sea.
9 Aa mboe hatao’o añatrefa’ i mpamono azoy hao ty hoe: izaho o ndrahare zao? Ihe ondaty avao, fa tsy Andrianañahare, am-pità’ i mañè-doza ama’oy.
Are you still going to claim, ‘I'm a god,’ to those who are killing you? You'll just be another human victim, not a god, in the eyes of your attackers.
10 Hikoromak’ ami’ty fivetraha’ o tsy sinavatseo irehe, am-pitàn-ambahiny; amy te Izaho ty mitaroñe, hoe t’Iehovà Talè.
You will be killed like some vile person by these foreigners. I myself have spoken, declares the Lord God.”
11 Niheo amako ty tsara’ Iehovà nanao ty hoe:
Another message from the Lord came to me, saying,
12 O ana’ondatio, añonjono bekom-pandalàñe ty mpanjaka’ i Tsorey ami’ty hoe: Hoe t’Iehovà Talè: Nivolim-pitombon-kafoniran-drehe, nilifo-kilala, vaho niginok’ an-katsomerentserañe.
“Son of man, sing a funeral song for the king of Tyre and tell him this is what the Lord God says: Once you were complete and perfect, full of wisdom and flawless in beauty.
13 Te Edene, golobon’Añahare ao irehe, nisikine ze hene vatosoa; ty odeme, ty pit’dà, ty diamondra, ty tarsise, ty sohame, ty iasefè, ty safira, ty nòfeke, ty barekate; vaho nitseneañe ama’o am-bolamena an-tsata’ ty mandolina naho ty soly, amy andro nañoreñañe azoy.
You were there in Eden, God's garden. You wore all kinds of precious stones: carnelian, topaz, and amethyst; beryl, onyx, and jasper; lapis lazuli, turquoise, and emerald. They were placed in gold mountings and settings using skilled craftsmanship, and were made on the day when you were created.
14 Nimpanàkon-drehe ry kerobe norizañey, Izaho ty nampijadoñ’ azo tamy vohi-masin’ Añaharey; nihelohelo amo vato milebalebao.
I gave you the position of guardian cherub, and I anointed you. You lived on God's holy mountain and you walked among the stones of fire.
15 Nitalango an-tsata’o iaby boak’ ami’ty andro nañoreñañ’ azo, ampara’ te nitendrek’ ama’o ty hakeo.
You were innocent in everything you did from the day you were created until you were found to be doing evil.
16 Nahalipo-tiñak’ azo ty fitoaboram-pibalibali’o, naho nandilatse irehe; aa le navokovokoko boak’amy vohin’Añaharey, vaho naretsako aman-keloke amo vato milebalebao irehe ry kerobe mpanakoñeo.
You were so busy with all your trading schemes that they destroyed you inside, leading you to sin and filling you with violence. So I sent you away in disgrace from God's mountain, and I removed you from your position as guardian cherub from your place among the stones of fire.
17 Nañonjoñe azo an-tro’o, ty hamotsotsore’oy, naniva azo ty hilala’o ty amy filoeloea’oy; nafetsako an-tane eo irehe; napoko añatrefa’ o mpanjakao, haharendreha’ iareo azo.
You became proud because of your beauty, you ruined your wisdom because you thought you were so wonderful. So I threw you down to the ground and I made sure kings saw what happened to you.
18 Fa nitivae’o i toe’o miavakey amo tahi’o tsifotofotoo, amo hakeom-pibalibali’oo; aa le nañakarako afo boak’am-po’o ao, ze nahaforototo azo, tinenoko ho lavenok’ an-tane eo am-pahaoniña’ ze hene mahaisake.
By all your sins and your dishonest trading you have made your sanctuaries unclean. So I had fire come from inside you, and it burned you up. I turned you into ashes on the ground as everybody there watched.
19 Songa nilatsa’ ze nahafohiñe azo amo kilakila’ndatio; nivarata irehe vaho tsy ho eo ka.
All who know you among the nations are horrified at what happened to you. Disaster has brought you down and you're finished forever.”
20 Niheo amako ty tsara’ Iehovà nanao ty hoe:
A message from the Lord came to me, saying,
21 O ana’ ondatio ampiatrefo mb’e Tsidone ty lahara’o le mitokia ama’e
“Son of man, face towards Sidon and prophesy against her.
22 ty hoe, Hoe ty nafè’ Iehovà Talè: Heheke te miatrek’azo iraho ry Tsidone; le ho rengeñe añivo’o ao iraho; naho ho fohi’ iareo te Izaho Iehovà, ie ametsahako zaka, vaho haveheñe ama’e.
Tell them this is what the Lord God says: Watch out, Sidon, for I'm condemning you, and I will be vindicated by what happens to you. People will know that I am the Lord when I punish her and show my holy character through her experience.
23 Hañitrifako angorosy naho lio amo lala’eo naho hitsingoritritse añivo’e ao o fereo, ty asam-pibara miarikoboñe aze, vaho ho fohi’ iareo te Izaho Iehovà.
I'm going to send a disease to plague her, and have people killed in her streets. Those who are killed will fall inside the city as the enemy attacks with swords from every side. Then they will know that I am the Lord.
24 Aa le lia’e tsy ho aman-droi-piteke i anjomba’ Israeley, ndra fatike hampinòtse aze boak’ amo mpiarikoboñe malaiñe azeo; vaho ho fohi’ iareo te Izaho Iehovà Talè.
The people of Israel will no longer have to put up with these people who are thorns in their side, painful brambles and sharp thorns who treat Israel with contempt. Then they will know that I am the Lord God.
25 Hoe ty nafè’ Iehovà Talè: Ie atontoko amo hene nampiparatsiahako aze añeo ty anjomba’ Israele, naho fa nampiavaheko am-pihaino’ o kilakila’ ndatio
This is what the Lord God says: When I bring back the people of Israel from the nations where they've been scattered. I will show my holy character through them as everyone watches. Then they will live in their own country, which I gave to my servant Jacob.
26 le himoneña’ iareo i tane natoloko amy mpitoroko Iakobeiy. Hiaiñañoleñañe iereo naho hañoreñe kivoho naho hañalahala tanem-bahe le himoneñ’ an-kanintsiñe ao, ie fa nametsahako zaka o mpamaoke mañohoke iareo vaho ho fohi’ iareo te Izaho Iehovà Andrianañahare’ iareo.
They will live there in safety, building houses and planting vineyards. They will live there in safety when I punish all those around them who treat them with contempt. Then they will know that I am the Lord their God.”
