UHezekheli 28
1 Ilizwi likaThixo lafika kimi lisithi:
And it came [the] word of Yahweh to me saying.
2 “Ndodana yomuntu, tshono kumbusi waseThire uthi, ‘Nanku okutshiwo nguThixo Wobukhosi: Ngokuzigqaja kwenhliziyo yakho uthi, “Ngingunkulunkulu; ngihlala esihlalweni sobukhosi sikankulunkulu enzikini yezilwandle.” Kodwa wena ungumuntu hatshi uNkulunkulu, lanxa ucabanga ukuthi uhlakaniphe njengoNkulunkulu.
O son of humankind say to [the] ruler of Tyre thus he says - [the] Lord Yahweh because it has been haughty heart your and you have said [am] a god I [the] seat of gods I sit in [the] heart of [the] seas and you [are] a human being and not a god and you have made heart your like [the] heart of a god.
3 Kambe uhlakaniphile kuloDanyeli na? Akulamfihlo esithekileyo kuwe na?
There! [are] wise you (more than Daniel *Q(K)*) any secret [thing] not people hold dark from you.
4 Ngenhlakanipho yakho lokuqedisisa uzizuzele inotho njalo wabuthela igolide lesiliva eziphaleni zengcebo yakho.
By wisdom your and by understanding your you have acquired for yourself wealth and you have acquired gold and silver in treasuries your.
5 Ngolwazi lwakho olukhulu ekuthengiseni uyandisile inotho yakho, njalo ngenxa yenotho yakho, inhliziyo yakho isizigqaja.
By [the] greatness of skill your by trading your you have increased wealth your and it has been haughty heart your in wealth your.
6 Ngakho nanku okutshiwo nguThixo Wobukhosi: Njengoba ucabanga ukuthi uhlakaniphile, uhlakaniphe njengoNkulunkulu,
Therefore thus he says [the] Lord Yahweh because making you heart your like [the] heart of a god.
7 ngizaletha abezizweni ukuba bamelane lawe, izizwe ezilesihluku kakhulu; zizahwatsha inkemba zazo zimelane lobuhle bakho kanye lenhlakanipho, zone lobuhle bakho obukhazimulayo.
Therefore here I [am] about to bring on you strangers ruthless [ones] of nations and they will draw swords their on [the] beauty of wisdom your and they will profane splendor your.
8 Zizakwehlisela phansi egodini, njalo uzakufa kabuhlungu enzikini yezilwandle.
To the pit they will bring down you and you will die [the] death of [the] slain in [the] heart of [the] seas.
9 Lapho-ke uzakutsho na phambi kwalabo abakubulalayo ukuthi, “Mina ngingunkulunkulu?” Uzakuba ngumuntu nje, hatshi unkulunkulu, ezandleni zalabo abakubulalayo.
¿ Really will you say [am] a god I before killer your and you [are] a human being and not a god in [the] hand of [those who] pierce you.
10 Uzakufa ukufa kwabangasokanga ezandleni zabezizweni. Sengikhulumile, kutsho uThixo Wobukhosi.’”
[the] deaths of Uncircumcised [men] you will die by [the] hand of strangers for I I have spoken [the] utterance of [the] Lord Yahweh.
11 Ilizwi likaThixo lafika kimi lisithi:
And it came [the] word of Yahweh to me saying.
12 “Ndodana yomuntu, khala isililo ngenkosi yaseThire uthi kuyo: ‘Nanku okutshiwo nguThixo Wobukhosi: Wawuyisibonelo sokuphelela ugcwele inhlakanipho lobuhle obupheleleyo.
O son of humankind take up a lamentation on [the] king of Tyre and you will say to him thus he says [the] Lord Yahweh you [were one who] seals an example full of wisdom and perfect of beauty.
13 Wawuse-Edeni isivande sikaNkulunkulu; waceca ngawo wonke amatshe aligugu: irubhi, lethophazi le-emeralidi, ikhrisolithe, i-onikisi lejaspa, isafire, ithukhwayizi lebherili. Izibonakaliso zakho lezisekelo kwakwenziwe ngegolide; kwalungiswa ngosuku owadalwa ngalo.
In Eden [the] garden of God you were [was] every stone precious covering your ruby topaz and emerald chrysolite onyx and jasper sapphire turquoise and beryl and gold [the] workmanship of tambourines your and settings your on you on [the] day are created you they were prepared.
14 Wagcotshwa njengekherubhi elondlayo, ngoba ngakumisela lokho. Wawuphezu kwentaba engcwele kaNkulunkulu; wahamba phakathi kwamatshe avutha umlilo.
You [were] a cherub of expansion [one which] covers and I appointed you on [the] mountain of [the] holiness of God you were in [the] middle of stones of fire you walked about.
15 Wawungelasici ezindleleni zakho kusukela ngosuku owadalwa ngalo ububi baze bafunyanwa kuwe.
[were] blameless You in ways your from [the] day are created you until it was found unrighteousness in you.
16 Ngenxa yokuthengisa kwakho ezindaweni ezinengi wagcwala udlakela, wasusona. Ngakho ngakususa njengehlazo entabeni kaNkulunkulu, njalo ngakuxotsha, wena kherubhi elondlayo, phakathi kwamatshe avutha umlilo.
In [the] abundance of trading your people filled [the] middle of you violence and you sinned and I profaned you from [the] mountain of God and I destroyed you O cherub [one which] covers from [the] middle of [the] stones of fire.
17 Inhliziyo yakho yazigqaja ngenxa yobuhle bakho, njalo wonakalisa inhlakanipho yakho ngenxa yobucwazicwazi bakho. Ngakho ngakuphosela emhlabeni; ngakwenza umbukiso phambi kwamakhosi.
It was haughty heart your in beauty your you perverted wisdom your on splendor your on [the] ground I threw you before kings I put you to look on you.
18 Ngezono zakho ezinengi lokuthengisa lobuqili usungcolise izindawo zakho ezingcwele. Ngakho ngaphemba umlilo phakathi kwakho wakutshisa wakuqeda, njalo ngakwenza waba ngumlotha emhlabathini phambi kwabo bonke ababekhangele.
From [the] greatness of iniquities your by [the] unrighteousness of trading your you profaned sanctuaries your and I brought out fire from [the] midst of you it it consumed you and I made you into ash[es] on the ground to [the] eyes of all [those who] saw you.
19 Zonke izizwe ezazikwazi zithithibele ngawe; usufike ekucineni okwesabekayo njalo kawuyikuba khona futhi.’”
All [those who] knew you among the peoples they were appalled on you terrors you became and there not [will be] you until perpetuity.
20 Ilizwi likaThixo lafika kimi lisithi:
And it came [the] word of Yahweh to me saying.
21 “Ndodana yomuntu, khangelisa ubuso bakho eSidoni; uphrofithe okubi ngalo
O son of humankind set face your to Sidon and prophesy on it.
22 uthi: ‘Nanku okutshiwo nguThixo Wobukhosi: Ngimelana lawe, wena Sidoni, njalo ngizathola udumo phakathi kwakho. Bazakwazi ukuthi mina nginguThixo lapho sengiletha isijeziso kulo njalo ngizibonakalisa ngingongcwele phakathi kwalo.
And you will say thus he says [the] Lord Yahweh here I [am] on you O Sidon and I will gain glory in [the] midst of you and people will know that I [am] Yahweh when bring about I on it judgments and I will show myself holy in it.
23 Ngizathumela isifo kulo, ngenze igazi ligeleze ezindleleni zalo. Abafileyo bazakuba phakathi kwalo, inkemba imelane lalo amacele wonke. Lapho-ke bazakwazi ukuthi mina nginguThixo.
And I will send on it a pestilence and blood in streets its and it will fall [the] slain in [the] midst of it by [the] sword on it from round about and they will know that I [am] Yahweh.
24 Abantu bako-Israyeli kabasayikuba labomakhelwane abalenhliziyo ezimbi njalo abangameva abuhlungu lameva ahlabayo. Lapho-ke bazakwazi ukuthi mina nginguThixo Wobukhosi.
And not it will belong again to [the] house of Israel a brier [which] pricks and a thorn [which] causes pain from all around them who despise them and they will know that I [am the] Lord Yahweh.
25 Nanku okutshiwo nguThixo Wobukhosi: Lapho sengiqoqa abantu bako-Israyeli ezizweni ababehlakazelwe kuzo, ngizazibonakalisa ngingongcwele phakathi kwabo phambi kwezizwe. Emva kwalokho bazahlala elizweni labo, engalinika inceku yami uJakhobe.
Thus he says [the] Lord Yahweh when gather I - [the] house of Israel from the peoples which they have been scattered among them and I will show myself holy among them to [the] eyes of the nations and they will dwell on own land their which I gave to servant my to Jacob.
26 Bazahlala kulo bevikelekile njalo bazakwakha izindlu bahlanyele lezivini; bazahlala bevikelekile lapho sengiletha isijeziso kubo bonke omakhelwane babo ababaphatha kubi. Lapho-ke bazakwazi ukuthi mina nginguThixo uNkulunkulu wabo.’”
And they will dwell on it to security and they will build houses and they will plant vineyards and they will dwell to security when bring about I judgments on all those [who] despise them from around them and they will know that I [am] Yahweh God their.
