< Ezekiel 28 >

1 Ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa tún tọ̀ mí wá wí pé:
And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
2 “Ọmọ ènìyàn, sọ fún ọmọ-aládé Tire pé, ‘Báyìí ní Olúwa Olódùmarè wí: “‘Nítorí tí ọkàn rẹ gbé sókè sí mi, ìwọ wí pé, “Èmi ni Ọlọ́run; Èmi jókòó sí orí ìtẹ́ òrìṣà, ní àárín gbùngbùn Òkun.” Ṣùgbọ́n ènìyàn ni ọ́, kì i ṣe òrìṣà, bí ó tilẹ̀ jẹ́ wí pé ìwọ rò pé ìwọ gbọ́n bí Ọlọ́run.
And you, son of man, say to the prince of Tyrus, Thus says the Lord; Because your heart has been exalted, and you have said, I am God, I have inhabited the dwelling of God in the heart of the sea; yet you are man and not God, though you have set your heart as the heart of God:
3 Ìwọ gbọ́n ju Daniẹli lọ bí? Ṣé kò sí àṣírí kan tí ó pamọ́ fún ọ?
are you wiser than Daniel? or have not the wise instructed you with their knowledge?
4 Pẹ̀lú ọgbọ́n àti ìmọ̀ rẹ, ìwọ tí jèrè ọrọ̀ fún ara rẹ, àti àkójọpọ̀ wúrà àti fàdákà, nínú àwọn ilé ìṣúra rẹ.
Hast you gained power for yourself by your [own] knowledge or your [own] prudence, and [gotten] gold and silver in your treasures?
5 Nípa ọgbọ́n rẹ ńlá àti nípa òwò rẹ, ìwọ ti sọ ọrọ̀ rẹ di púpọ̀, àti nítorí ọrọ̀ rẹ di púpọ̀, ọkàn rẹ gbé sókè, nítorí ọrọ̀ rẹ.
By your abundant knowledge and your traffic you have multiplied your power; your heart has been lifted up by your power.
6 “‘Nítorí náà èyí yìí ní Olúwa Olódùmarè wí: “‘Nítorí pé ìwọ rò pé o gbọ́n, pé ìwọ gbọ́n bí Ọlọ́run.
Therefore thus says the Lord; Since you have set your heart as the hart of God;
7 Èmi yóò mú kí àwọn àjèjì dìde sí ọ, ẹlẹ́rù nínú àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè; wọn yóò yọ idà wọn sí ọ, ẹwà rẹ àti ọgbọ́n rẹ, wọn yóò sì ba dídán rẹ̀ jẹ́.
because of this, behold, I [will] bring on you strange plagues from the nations; and they shall draw their swords against you, and against the beauty of your knowledge,
8 Wọn yóò mú ọ sọ̀kalẹ̀ wá sínú ihò, ìwọ yóò sì kú ikú gbígbóná, àwọn tí a pa ní àárín Òkun.
and they shall bring down your beauty to destruction. And they shall bring you down; and you shall die the death of the slain in the heart of the sea.
9 Ṣé ìwọ yóò wá wí pé, “Èmi ni Ọlọ́run,” ní ojú àwọn tí ó pa ọ́? Ìwọ yóò jẹ́ ènìyàn, kì í ṣe Ọlọ́run, ní ọwọ́ àwọn ti yóò pa ọ́.
Will you indeed say, I am God, before them that kill you? whereas you are man, and not God.
10 Ìwọ yóò kú ikú aláìkọlà, ní ọwọ́ àwọn àjèjì. Èmi ni ó ti sọ ọ́, ní Olúwa Olódùmarè wí.’”
You shall perish by the hands of strangers amongst the multitude of the uncircumcised: for I have spoken it, says the Lord.
11 Ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa tún tọ̀ mí wá wí pé:
And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
12 “Ọmọ ènìyàn, pohùnréré ẹkún sórí ọba Tire kí ó sì sọ fún un pé: ‘Èyí yìí ni ohun tí Olúwa Olódùmarè wí: “‘Ìwọ jẹ́ àpẹẹrẹ ìjẹ́pípé náà, o kún fún ọgbọ́n, o sì pé ní ẹwà.
Son of man, take up a lamentation for the prince of Tyre, and say to him, Thus says the Lord God; You are a seal of resemblance, and crown of beauty.
13 Ìwọ ti wà ní Edeni, ọgbà Ọlọ́run; onírúurú òkúta oníyebíye ni ìbora rẹ; sardiu, topasi àti diamọndi, berili, óníkìsì, àti jasperi, safire, emeradi, turikuose, àti karbunkili, àti wúrà, ìpilẹ̀ṣẹ̀ rẹ àti àwọn òkè rẹ ní a dà, láti ara wúrà, ní ọjọ́ tí á dá ọ ní a pèsè wọn.
You were in the delight of the paradise of God; you have bound upon you every precious stone, the sardius, and topaz, and emerald, and carbuncle, and sapphire, and jasper, and silver, and gold, and ligure, and agate, and amethyst, and chrysolite, and beryl, and onyx: and you have filled your treasures and your stores in you with gold.
14 A fi àmì òróró yàn ọ́ gẹ́gẹ́ bí olùtọ́jú kérúbù, torí èyí ni mo fi yàn ọ́. Ìwọ wà lórí òkè mímọ́ Ọlọ́run; ìwọ rìn ni àárín òkúta a mú bí iná.
From the day that you were created you [was] with the cherub: I set you on the holy mount of God; you were in the midst of the stones of fire.
15 Ìwọ pé ní ọ̀nà rẹ, láti ọjọ́ tí a ti dá ọ, títí a fi rí àìṣedéédéé ní inú rẹ.
You were faultless in your days, from the day that you were created, until iniquity was found in you.
16 Nípa ìtànkálẹ̀ òwò rẹ, ìwọ kún fún ìwà ipá; ìwọ sì dẹ́ṣẹ̀. Nítorí náà ni mo ṣe sọ ọ nù, bí ohun àìlọ́wọ̀ kúrò lórí òkè Ọlọ́run. Èmi sì pa ọ run, ìwọ kérúbù, tí ó bọ́ kúrò ní àárín òkúta a mú bí iná.
Of the abundance of your merchandise you have filled your storehouses with iniquity, and have sinned: therefore you have been cast down wounded from the mount of God, and the cherub has brought you out of the midst of the stones of fire.
17 Ọkàn rẹ gbéraga, nítorí ẹwà rẹ. Ìwọ sì ba ọgbọ́n rẹ jẹ́, nítorí dídára rẹ. Nítorí náà mo le ọ sórí ayé; mo sọ ọ di awòojú níwájú àwọn ọba.
Your heart has been lifted up because of your beauty; your knowledge has been corrupted with your beauty: because of the multitude of your sins I have cast you to the ground, I have caused you to be put to open shame before kings.
18 Nípa ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ púpọ̀ rẹ àti òwò àìṣòótọ́ rẹ, ìwọ ti ba àwọn ibi mímọ́ rẹ jẹ́. Nítorí náà mo mú kí iná jáde wá, láti inú rẹ, yóò sì jó ọ run, èmi yóò sì sọ ọ́ di eérú lórí ilẹ̀, lójú gbogbo àwọn tí ó ń wò ọ́.
Because of the multitude of your sins and the iniquities of your merchandise, I have profaned your sacred things; and I will bring fire out of the midst of you, this shall devour you; and I will make you [to be] ashes upon your land before all that see you.
19 Gbogbo orílẹ̀-èdè tí ó mọ̀ ọ́n, ní ẹnu ń yà sí ọ; ìwọ yóò sì jẹ́ ẹ̀rù, ìwọ kì yóò sì ṣí mọ́ láéláé.’”
And all that know you amongst the nations shall groan over you: you are gone to destruction, and you shall not exist any more.
20 Ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa tún tọ̀ mí wá wí pé:
And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
21 “Ọmọ ènìyàn, kọ ojú sí Sidoni; kí o sì sọtẹ́lẹ̀ sí i,
Son of man, set your face against Sidon, and prophesy against it,
22 kí ó sì wí pé, ‘Báyìí ni Olúwa Olódùmarè wí: “‘Èmi lòdì sí ọ, ìwọ Sidoni, a ó sì ṣe mí lógo láàrín rẹ. Wọn yóò mọ̀ pé èmi ní Olúwa, nígbà tí mo bá mú ìdájọ́ mi ṣẹ nínú rẹ, tí a sì yá mí sí mímọ́ nínú rẹ.
and say, Thus says the Lord; Behold, I am against you, O Sidon; and I will be glorified in you; and you shall know that I am the Lord, when I have wrought judgements in you, and I will be sanctified in you.
23 Èmi yóò sì rán àjàkálẹ̀-ààrùn sínú rẹ, èmi yóò sì mú kí ẹ̀jẹ̀ sàn ní ìgboro rẹ, ẹni ti á pa yóò ṣubú ní àárín rẹ, pẹ̀lú idà lára rẹ ní gbogbo ẹ̀gbẹ́, nígbà náà wọn yóò mọ̀ wí pé èmi ni Olúwa.
Blood and death [shall be] in your streets; and [men] wounded with swords shall fall in you and on every side of you; and they shall know that I am the Lord.
24 “‘Kì yóò sì ṣí ẹ̀gún tí ń gun ni ní ilẹ̀ Israẹli mọ́, tàbí ẹ̀gún bíbani nínú jẹ́ ti gbogbo àwọn tí wọn wà ní àyíká wọn, tí wọ́n sì ń fi ojú yẹpẹrẹ wò wọ́n, nígbà náà ni wọn yóò mọ́ wí pé èmi ni Olúwa Olódùmarè.
And there shall no more be in the house of Israel a thorn of bitterness and a pricking briar proceeding from them that are round about them, who dishonoured them; and they shall know that I am the Lord.
25 “‘Èyí yìí ní Olúwa Olódùmarè wí: Nígbà tí èmi yóò bá sa àwọn ènìyàn Israẹli jọ kúrò ní gbogbo orílẹ̀-èdè tí wọ́n ti fọ́nká sí, tí a ó sì yà mí sí mímọ́ láàrín wọn lójú àwọn aláìkọlà. Nígbà náà ni wọn yóò gbé ní ilẹ̀ àwọn tìkálára wọn, èyí tí mo fún ìránṣẹ́ mi Jakọbu.
Thus says the Lord God; I will also gather Israel from the nations, amongst whom they have been scattered, and I will be sanctified amongst them, and before the peoples and nations: and they shall dwell upon their land, which I gave to my servant Jacob.
26 Wọn yóò sì máa gbé ní inú rẹ̀ ní àìléwu, wọn yóò sì kọ́lé, wọn yóò sì gbin ọgbà àjàrà; nítòótọ́ wọn yóò wà ní ìbàlẹ̀ àyà, nígbà tí èmi bá ti mú ìdájọ́ mi ṣẹ̀ sí ara àwọn tí ń ṣátá wọn ní gbogbo àyíká wọn. Nígbà náà ni wọn yóò mọ̀ pé, Èmi ni Olúwa Ọlọ́run wọn.’”
Yes, they shall dwell upon it safely, and they shall build houses, and plant vineyards, and dwell securely, when I shall execute judgement on all that have dishonoured them, [even] on those [that are] round about them; and they shall know that I am the Lord their God, and the God of their fathers.
