Ezekiela 31
1 Aa tamy taom-paha-folo-raik’ambiy amy andro valoham-bolam-paha-teloy, le niheo amako ty tsara’ Iehovà nanao ty hoe:
And it came to pass in the eleventh year, in the third [month], in the first [day] of the month, that the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
2 O ana’ ondatio, saontsio t’i Paro mpanjaka’ i Mitsraime naho i volobohò’ey: Mañirinkiriñ’ama’ ia irehe amo fitoabora’oo?
Son of man, say unto Pharaoh king of Egypt, and to his multitude; Whom art thou like in thy greatness?
3 Hehe ty mpanjaka’ i Asore ie ni-mendoraveñe e Libanone añe aman-tsampa’e fanjaka, amañ’aloke mangonkoñe, niningoningo nañambone; nitiotiotse amo tsampañe boda’eo o lengo’eo.
Behold, the Assyrian was a cedar in Lebanon with fair branches, and with a shadowing shroud, and of an high stature; and his top was among the thick boughs.
4 Namahañe aze o ranoo; nampandigiligy aze mañambone i lalekey; niariary am-pandia’eo o saka’eo, nahitri’e mb’amo hene hatae an-kivokeo o fikararaha’eo.
The waters nourished him, the deep made him to grow: her rivers ran round about her plantation; and she sent out her channels unto all the trees of the field.
5 Aa le fonga niandikera’ ze hatae an-kivokey ty haabo’e, nihamaro o tsampa’eo, nihalava o tora’eo ty amo rano’e maroo, le nampitakare’e mb’eo.
Therefore his stature was exalted above all the trees of the field: and his boughs were multiplied, and his branches became long by reason of many waters, when he shot [them] forth.
6 Rinare’ o hene voron-dikerañeo amo tsampa’eo o traño’eo, naho añ’alo’ o tora’eo te niteraha’ o bibin-kivokeo o ana’eo, vaho nitsolok’ ambane talinjo’e eo ty valobohò’ o fifeheañe iabio.
All the fowls of heaven made their nests in his boughs, and under his branches did all the beasts of the field bring forth their young, and under his shadow dwelt all great nations.
7 Nihamim-batan-dre amy hara’elahi’ey, ami’ty fandrevaha’ o tsampa’eo, amy te nahatakatse rano maro o vaha’eo.
Thus was he fair in his greatness, in the length of his branches: for his root was by many waters.
8 Tsy nanaroñe aze o mendorave an-golobon’ Añahareo, tsy nanahake o tora’eo o akaoo, vaho tsy nañirinkiriñe o tora’eo ty nonoke; leo hatae raik’ an-golobon’Añahare ao tsy nihambañe amy ha’fanjàka’ey.
The cedars in the garden of God could not hide him: the fir trees were not like his boughs, and the plane trees were not as his branches; nor was any tree in the garden of God like unto him in his beauty.
9 Izaho ty nampitsomerentsereñ’ aze, ami’ty fandrevaha’ o ra’eo; vaho sindre nitsikirìk’ aze ze hatae Edene ao, an-golobon’ Añahare ao.
I made him fair by the multitude of his branches: so that all the trees of Eden, that were in the garden of God, envied him.
10 Aa le hoe ty nafè’ Iehovà Talè: amy t’ie nañonjom-batañe añ’abo ey naho nampiningonigoetse mb’an-drahoñe ey ty lengo’e, vaho nirengevoke ty arofo’e ami’ty fitoabora’e;
Therefore thus said the Lord GOD: Because thou art exalted in stature, and he hath set his top among the thick boughs, and his heart is lifted up in his height;
11 le fa natoloko am-pità’ i maozatse amo kilakila’ ndatioy; ie ty hiatreatre aze; amy t’ie fa finirako ambane ty amo haloloa’eo.
I will even deliver him into the hand of the mighty one of the nations; he shall surely deal with him: I have driven him out for his wickedness.
12 O ambahinio, ty maozatse amo kilakila’ndatio, ty hañatsak’ aze naho hapo’e eo; hideboñe amo vohitseo o tora’eo, naho amo vavataneo, naho hipozake marine o saka’ i taneio o ra’eo; le hisitak’ amy talinjo’ey ze hene ondati’ ty tane toy, vaho haforintseñe.
And strangers, the terrible of the nations, have cut him off, and have left him: upon the mountains and in all the valleys his branches are fallen, and his boughs are broken by all the watercourses of the land; and all the peoples of the earth are gone down from his shadow, and have left him.
13 Hidoñe amy firotsaha’ey ze kila voron-dikerañe, vaho ho amo tsampa’eo ze hene bibin-kivoke,
Upon his ruin all the fowls of the heaven shall dwell, and all the beasts of the field shall be upon his branches:
14 soa te tsy ho amo hatae añ’olon-dranoo ty hionjom-batañe ty amy haandikera’ey, ndra hampitiotiotse o tsampa’eo ambone’ o bodan-tora’eo, naho tsy hitroatse hijoalajoala añivo’ o ra’eo ze hene mpikama rano; fonga hatolotse am-pihomahañe iereo, pak’an-tsikeokeo’ ty tane toy añivo’ o ana’ondaty fa nigodañe an-kiborio.
to the end that none of all the trees by the waters exalt themselves in their stature, neither set their top among the thick boughs, nor that their mighty ones stand up in their height, [even] all that drink water: for they are all delivered unto death, to the nether parts of the earth, in the midst of the children of men, with them that go down to the pit.
15 Aa hoe t’Iehovà Talè; Amy andro nizotsoa’e mb’an-tsikeokeok’ aoy, le nampandalako; nakopoko ho aze i lalekey, naho sinebako o fisorotombaha’eo, le hene nijihetse o ranoo; le nihontoke ho aze t’i Libanone, vaho fonga nitoirañe o hatae an-kivokeo. (Sheol h7585)
Thus saith the Lord GOD: In the day when he went down to hell I caused a mourning: I covered the deep for him, and I restrained the rivers thereof, and the great waters were stayed: and I caused Lebanon to mourn for him, and all the trees of the field fainted for him. (Sheol h7585)
16 Nampihondrahondraeko o kilakila’ ndatio ami’ty feom-pideboña’e, ie navokovokoko an-tsikeokeok’ ao hitraofa’e amo mizotso mb’an-koboñeo; naho nohòñeñe o hene hatae Edeneo, naho o fanjàka amo hatae e Libanoneo; ze hene mpisì-drano, an-tsikeokeo’ ty tane toy ao. (Sheol h7585)
I made the nations to shake at the sound of his fall, when I cast him down to hell with them that descend into the pit: and all the trees of Eden, the choice and best of Lebanon, all that drink water, were comforted in the nether parts of the earth. (Sheol h7585)
17 Nitrao-pizotso ama’e mb’an-tsikeokeoke mb’eo o zinamam-pibarao; naho o nimpitàm-pialia’eo, o nimoneñe ambane’ i talinjo’ey añivo’ o kilakila’ ndatioo. (Sheol h7585)
They also went down into hell with him unto them that be slain by the sword; yea, they that were his arm, [that] dwelt under his shadow in the midst of the nations. (Sheol h7585)
18 Ia arè ty añirinkiriña’o an-drenge naho ami’ty hajabahina’o añivo’ o hatae Edeneo? F’ihe ho firaeñe rekets’ o hatae Edeneo, homb’ an-tsikeokeo-ty tane toy ao; hàndre añivo’ o tsy sinavatseo, mindre amo zinamam-pibarao. Izay ty amy Parò naho ondati’e iabio, hoe t’Iehovà Talè.
To whom art thou thus like in glory and in greatness among the trees of Eden? yet shalt thou be brought down with the trees of Eden unto the nether parts of the earth: thou shalt lie in the midst of the uncircumcised, with them that be slain by the sword. This is Pharaoh and all his multitude, saith the Lord GOD.
