Ezekieri 35

1 Shoko raJehovha rakasvika kwandiri richiti,

And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:

2 “Mwanakomana womunhu, rinzira chiso chako pamusoro peGomo reSeiri; uprofite pamusoro paro,

“Son of man, set your face against mount Seir, and you shall prophesy about it, and you shall say to it:

3 uti, ‘Zvanzi naIshe Jehovha: Ndine mhaka newe iwe Gomo reSeiri, uye ndichatambanudzira ruoko rwangu kuzorwa newe ndigokuita dongo raparadzwa.

Thus says the Lord God: Behold, I am against you, mount Seir, and I will extend my hand over you, and I will make you desolate and deserted.

4 Ndichashandura maguta ako akava matongo uye iwe uchaparadzwa. Ipapo uchaziva kuti ndini Jehovha.

I will tear down your cities, and you will be deserted. And you shall know that I am the Lord.

5 “‘Nemhaka yokuti wakafundira ruvengo rwako rwakare ukaisa vaIsraeri kumunondo panguva yenjodzi yavo, panguva iyo kurangwa kwavo kwakanga kwasvika pamusoro-soro,

For you have been a continual adversary, and you have enclosed the sons of Israel, by the hands of the sword, in the time of their affliction, in the time of extreme iniquity.

6 naizvozvo, noupenyu hwangu zvirokwazvo, ndizvo zvinotaura Ishe Jehovha, ndichakuisa kukuteura ropa uye richakuteverera. Sezvo usina kuvenga kuteura ropa, kuteura ropa kuchakuteverera.

Because of this, as I live, says the Lord God, I will hand you over to blood, and blood will pursue you. Even though you have hated blood, blood will pursue you.

7 Ndichaita kuti Gomo reSeiri rive dongo uye ndichaparadza vose vanopinda napo uye nevanobuda napo.

And I will make mount Seir desolate and deserted. And I will take away from it the one who departs and the one who returns.

8 Ndichazadza makomo ako navakaurayiwa; vaya vakaurayiwa nomunondo vachawira pazvikomo nomumipata yenyu uye nomunzizi dzenyu dzose.

And I will fill up its mountains with its slain. In your hills, and in your valleys, as well as in your torrents, the slain will fall by the sword.

9 Ndichakuparadza nokusingaperi, maguta ako haachazogarwi. Ipapo muchaziva kuti ndini Jehovha.

I will hand you over to everlasting desolations, and your cities will not be inhabited. And you shall know that I am the Lord God.

10 “‘Nemhaka yokuti iwe wakati, “Ndudzi mbiri idzi nenyika idzi dzichava dzedu uye tichadzitora,” kunyange dai ini Jehovha ndaivapo,

For you have said, ‘Two nations and two lands will be mine, and I will possess them as an inheritance,’ though the Lord was in that place.

11 naizvozvo, noupenyu hwangu zvirokwazvo, ndizvo zvinotaura Ishe Jehovha, ndichakuitira zvakafanira kutsamwa negodo rawakaratidza mukuvavenga kwako uye ndichaita kuti vandizive pakati pavo pandichakutonga.

Because of this, as I live, says the Lord God, I will act in accord with your own wrath, and in accord with your own zeal, by which you have acted with hatred toward them. And I will be made known by them, when I will have judged you.

12 Ipapo uchaziva kuti ini Jehovha ndakanzwa zvose zvinonyadza zvawakataura zvinorwisa makomo eIsraeri. Iwe wakati, “Akaparadzwa uye akapiwa kwatiri kuti tiadye.”

And you shall know that I, the Lord, have heard all your disgraces, which you have spoken about the mountains of Israel, saying: ‘They are deserted. They have been given to us to devour.’

13 Wakazvirumbidza pamusoro pangu uye wakataura zvakaipa pamusoro pangu usingazvidzori, uye ini ndakazvinzwa.

And you rose up against me with your mouth, and you disparaged against me with your words. I have heard.

14 Zvanzi naIshe Jehovha: Panguva inofara nyika yose, ini ndichakuita dongo.

Thus says the Lord God: When the whole earth will rejoice, I will reduce you to solitude.

15 Nokuti iwe wakafara panguva yakaparadzwa nhaka yeimba yaIsraeri, ndizvo zvandichakuitirawo iwe. Uchava dongo, iwe Gomo reSeiri, iwe neEdhomu yose. Ipapo vachaziva kuti ndini Jehovha.’”

Just as you have rejoiced over the inheritance of the house of Israel, when it was laid waste, so will I act toward you. You will be laid waste, O mount Seir, with all of Idumea. And they shall know that I am the Lord.”
