UHezekheli 30
1 Ilizwi likaThixo lafika kimi lisithi:
Yehowa ƒe nya va nam be,
2 “Ndodana yomuntu, phrofetha uthi: ‘Nanku okutshiwo nguThixo Wobukhosi: Lilani lithi, “Maye ngalolosuku!”
“Ame vi, gblɔ nya ɖi be, ‘Ale Aƒetɔ Yehowa gblɔe nye esi: “‘Mifa avi, miagblɔ be, Baba na ŋkeke ma,
3 Ngoba usuku seluseduze, usuku lukaThixo seluseduze usuku lwamayezi, isikhathi sokutshabalala kwezizwe.
elabena ŋkeke ma gogo, Yehowa ƒe ŋkeke ma tu aƒe, ŋkeke si dzi blukɔ ado, ŋkeke si ahe dzɔgbevɔ̃e va dukɔwo dzi.
4 Inkemba izakumelana leGibhithe, losizi luzakwehlela phezu kukaKhushi. Lapho ababuleweyo besiwa eGibhithe inotho yalo izathunjwa lezisekelo zalo zidilizelwe phansi.
Yi aɖe atso ɖe Egipte ŋu, eye ŋɔdzi aɖo Kus. Ne ame ku le Egipte la, woalɔ Egipte ƒe kesinɔnuwo adzoe, eye woakaka eƒe gɔmeɖoɖo ƒe agunu.
5 IKhushi lePhuthi, iLudi le-Arabhiya yonke, iLibhiya kanye labantu belizwe lesivumelwano bazabulawa ngenkemba ndawonye leGibhithe.
Kus kple Libia, Lidia kple Arabia katã, Kub kple dukɔ siwo katã me tɔwo le nubabla la me la, atsi yinu kpe ɖe Egiptetɔwo ŋu.’
6 Nanku okutshiwo nguThixo Wobukhosi: Abasekeli beGibhithe bazakufa, lamandla alo aziqhenyayo azaphela. Kusukela eMigidoli kusiya e-Asiwani bazakuwa ngenkemba phakathi kwalo, kutsho uThixo Wobukhosi.
“Ale Yehowa gblɔe nye esi: “‘Egipte dzi nɔlawo adze anyi, eye eƒe ŋusẽ si dzi wòdana ɖo la ayi to tso Migdol va se ɖe Aswan; woatsi yinu le eme.’ Aƒetɔ Yehowa gblɔe.
7 Bazachitheka phakathi kwamazwe achithekileyo, njalo amadolobho abo azakuba phakathi kwamadolobho adiliziweyo.
“Woazu gbegbe le anyigba siwo wogblẽ la dome, eye woƒe duwo anɔ du siwo wogbã la dome.
8 Lapho-ke bazakwazi ukuthi mina nginguThixo, lapho sengithungela iGibhithe ngomlilo labasizi balo bonke sebeqothulwe.
Ekema woanya be nyee nye Yehowa, ne metɔ dzo Egipte, eye mefanya eƒe kpeɖeŋutɔwo katã.
9 Ngalolosuku izithunywa zizaphuma zisuka kimi ngemikhumbi ziyetshayisa iKhushi ngovalo, kuphele ukungazikhathazi kwalo. Bazakwehlelwa lusizi ngosuku lokutshabalala kweGibhithe, ngoba ngempela kuzafika.
“Gbe ma gbe la, ame dɔdɔwo atso gbɔnye anɔ tɔdziʋuwo me be woado ŋɔdzi na Kus le eƒe ɖokuiŋudzedze me. Vɔvɔ̃ aɖo wo le Egipte ƒe dzɔgbevɔ̃eŋkeke la ta, elabena ele vava ge godoo.
10 Nanku okutshiwo nguThixo Wobukhosi: Ngizawaqeda amaxuku aseGibhithe ngesandla sikaNebhukhadineza inkosi yaseBhabhiloni.
“‘Ale Aƒetɔ Yehowa gblɔe nye esi: “‘Matsrɔ̃ Egipte ameha gã la to Nebukadnezar, Babilonia fia ƒe asi dzi.
11 Yena lebutho lakhe, abalolunya olukhulu phakathi kwezizwe, bazalethwa ukuba bachithe ilizwe. Bazahwatsha izinkemba zabo ukuba bamelane leGibhithe bagcwalise ilizwe ngababuleweyo.
Woakplɔ eya kple eƒe aʋakɔ, ame siwo mekpɔa nublanui na amewo le dukɔwo katã dome o la, vɛ be woagblẽ anyigba la. Woaɖe woƒe yi le aku me ɖe Egipte ŋu, eye woana ame kukuwo nayɔ anyigba la dzi.
12 Ngizakomisa izifula zeNayili lelizwe ngilithengisele abantu ababi; ngesandla sabezizweni, ngizalichitha ilizwe, lakho konke okukulo. Mina Thixo sengikhulumile.
Mana Nil tɔsisi la namie, eye madzra anyigba la na ame vɔ̃ɖiwo. Mana amedzrowo ƒe asi nagblẽ anyigba la kple nu sia nu si le edzi. Nye, Yehowae ƒo nu.
13 Nanku okutshiwo nguThixo Wobukhosi: Ngizachitha izithombe ngiqede izifanekiso eMemfisi. Akusayikuba khona inkosana eGibhithe, njalo ngizaletha ukwesaba kulolonke ilizwe.
“‘Ale Aƒetɔ Yehowa gblɔe nye esi: “‘Magbã woƒe legbawo, eye maɖe aklamakpakpɛ siwo le Memfis la ɖa. Dziɖula aɖeke maganɔ Egipte azɔ o, eye mana vɔvɔ̃ naɖo ame sia ame le anyigba la dzi.
14 Ngizachitha iPhathrosi, ngithungele iZowani ngomlilo, besengiletha isijeziso phezu kweThebesi.
Mana Egipte ƒe dzigbeme nazu gbegbe, matɔ dzo Zoan, eye mahe to na Tebes.
15 Ngizakwehlisela ulaka lwami phezu kwePhelusiyami, inqaba yaseGibhithe, ngiqede lamaxuku aseThebesi.
Matrɔ nye dɔmedzoe helĩhelĩ akɔ ɖe Pelusium, Egipte ƒe mɔ sesẽtɔ la dzi, eye matsrɔ̃ Tebes ƒe amehawo.
16 Ngizathungela iGibhithe ngomlilo; iPhelusiyami izajanqula ngobuhlungu. IThebesi izathunjwa ngesidumo esikhulu; iMemfisi izakuba sosizini olumiyo.
Matɔ dzo Egipte; Pelusium anɔ ŋeŋem kple vevesese, ahom akplɔ Tebes adzoe, eye Memfis axaxa le nyadzɔɖeamedziwo ta.
17 Amajaha aseHeliyopholisi leBhubhastisi azabulawa ngenkemba, lamadolobho wona ngokwawo azathunjwa.
Heliopolis kple Bubastis ƒe ɖekakpuiwo atsi yi nu, eye duawo me tɔwo ŋutɔ aɖe aboyo wo ɖokuiwo.
18 EThahiphanesi imini izakuba mnyama, lapho ngisephula ijogwe leGibhithe; khonale-ke amandla alo aziqhenyayo azaphela. Azakwembeswa ngamayezi, njalo imizi yalo izakuya ekuthunjweni.
Tapanhes ƒe ŋkeke ado viviti, ne mekaka Egipte ƒe kɔkuti; afi mae Egipte ƒe ŋusẽ, si dzi wòdana ɖo la, aɖo eƒe seƒe le. Lilikpo atsyɔ edzi, eye woaɖe aboyo eƒe duwo me tɔwo.
19 Ngokunjalo ngizakwehlisela isijeziso phezu kweGibhithe, njalo bazakwazi ukuthi mina nginguThixo.’”
Ale mahe to na Egipte, eye wòanya be nyee nye Yehowa.’”
20 Ngomnyaka wetshumi lanye, ngenyanga yakuqala ngosuku lwesikhombisa, ilizwi likaThixo lafika kimi lisithi:
Le ƒe wuiɖekɛlia ƒe ɣleti gbãtɔ ƒe ŋkeke adrelia gbe la, Yehowa ƒe gbe va nam be,
21 “Ndodana yomuntu, sengiyephule ingalo kaFaro inkosi yaseGibhithe. Kayibotshwanga ukuba iphole kumbe ifakwe uhlaka ukuze iqine okwanele ukuthi iphathe inkemba.
“Ame vi, meŋe Farao, Egipte fia ƒe abɔ ɖeka. Womeblae kple avɔ wòatsya o, eye womeblae kple ati be, wòagasẽ alé yi o.
22 Ngakho-ke nanku okutshiwo nguThixo Wobukhosi: Ngimelana loFaro inkosi yaseGibhithe. Ngizazephula zombili izingalo zakhe, eqinileyo kanye leyephukileyo, ngenze inkemba iwe esandleni sakhe.
Eya ta ale Aƒetɔ Yehowa gblɔe nye esi: ‘Metso ɖe Farao, Egipte fia ŋu. Maŋe eƒe abɔ eveawo, eye mana yi nage le esi.
23 Ngizachithela amaGibhithe phakathi kwezizwe ngiwahlakazele emazweni.
Makaka Egiptetɔwo ɖe dukɔwo dome, eye maka wo ahlẽ ɖe anyigbawo dzi.
24 Ngizaqinisa izingalo zenkosi yaseBhabhiloni ngifake inkemba yami ezandleni zayo, kodwa izingalo zikaFaro ngizazephula, njalo uzabubula phambi kwayo njengomuntu olimale okokufa.
Mado ŋusẽ Babilonia fia ƒe abɔwo, eye matsɔ nye yi ade asi nɛ, ke maŋe Farao ƒe abɔwo, eye wòanɔ ŋeŋem le eŋkume abe ame si ŋu wode kubi ene.
25 Ngizaqinisa izingalo zenkosi yaseBhabhiloni, kodwa izingalo zikaFaro zizakuba buthakathaka. Lapho-ke bazakwazi ukuthi mina nginguThixo lapho sengifaka inkemba yami esandleni senkosi yaseBhabhiloni layo isiyizunguza imelane leGibhithe.
Mado ŋusẽ Babilonia fia ƒe abɔwo, ke Farao ya ƒe abɔwo aku ɖe eŋuti. Ekema woanya be, nyee nye Yehowa, ne metsɔ nye yi de asi na Babilonia fia be woanyee le yame ɖe Egipte ŋu.
26 Ngizachithela amaGibhithe phakathi kwezizwe ngiwahlakazele emazweni futhi. Lapho-ke azakwazi ukuthi mina nginguThixo.”
Makaka Egiptetɔwo ɖe dukɔwo dome, eye makaka wo ahlẽ ɖe anyigbawo dzi. Ekema woanya be nyee nye Yehowa.’”
