Ezekiel 29
1 Ní ọjọ́ kejìlá, oṣù kẹwàá, ọdún kẹwàá, ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa tọ̀ mí wá wí pé:
In the tenth year, on the twelfth day of the tenth month, the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
2 “Ọmọ ènìyàn, kọjú sí Farao ọba Ejibiti kí ó sì sọ àsọtẹ́lẹ̀ sí i àti sí gbogbo Ejibiti.
“Son of man, set your face against Pharaoh king of Egypt and prophesy against him and against all Egypt.
3 Sọ̀rọ̀, kí ó sì wí pé, ‘Báyìí ní Olúwa Olódùmarè wí: “‘Èmi lòdì sí ọ, Farao ọba Ejibiti ìwọ ẹ̀mí búburú ńlá inú òkun tí ó dùbúlẹ̀ sí àárín àwọn odò ṣíṣàn rẹ. Èyí tí ó sọ wí pé, “Tèmi ni odò Naili; èmi ni ó sì ṣe é fún ara mi.”
Speak to him and tell him that this is what the Lord GOD says: Behold, I am against you, O Pharaoh king of Egypt, O great monster who lies among his rivers, who says, ‘The Nile is mine; I made it myself.’
4 Ṣùgbọ́n èmi yóò fi ìwọ̀ mú ẹnu rẹ èmi yóò sì mú ẹja inú odò rẹ gbogbo lẹ̀ mọ́ ìpẹ́ ara rẹ. Èmi yóò fà ọ́ síta kúrò láàrín àwọn odò rẹ, àti gbogbo ẹja odò rẹ yóò lẹ̀ mọ́ ìpẹ́ ara rẹ.
But I will put hooks in your jaws and cause the fish of your streams to cling to your scales. I will haul you up out of your rivers, and all the fish of your streams will cling to your scales.
5 Èmi yóò sọ ọ́ nù sí aginjù ìwọ àti gbogbo ẹja inú odò rẹ: ìwọ yóò ṣubú sí gbangba oko a kì yóò sì ṣà ọ́ jọ tàbí gbé ọ sókè. Èmi ti fi ọ ṣe oúnjẹ fún àwọn ẹranko igbó àti fún àwọn ẹyẹ ojú ọ̀run láti jẹ.
I will leave you in the desert, you and all the fish of your streams. You will fall on the open field and will not be taken away or gathered for burial. I have given you as food to the beasts of the earth and the birds of the air.
6 Nígbà náà gbogbo àwọn olùgbé ni Ejibiti yóò mọ pé, Èmi ni Olúwa. “‘Ìwọ ti jẹ́ ọ̀pá ìyè fún ilé Israẹli.
Then all the people of Egypt will know that I am the LORD. For you were only a staff of reeds to the house of Israel.
7 Nígbà tí wọn fi ọwọ́ agbára wọn dì ọ́ mú. Ìwọ fọ́, ìwọ sì ya gbogbo èjìká wọn; nígbà tí wọn fi ara tì ọ́, ìwọ sẹ́, ìwọ sì mú gbogbo ẹ̀gbẹ́ wọn gbọ̀n.
When Israel took hold of you with their hands, you splintered, tearing all their shoulders; when they leaned on you, you broke, and their backs were wrenched.
8 “‘Nítorí náà, èyí ní Olúwa Olódùmarè wí: Kíyèsi, Èmi yóò mú idà kan wá sórí rẹ tí yóò sì gé ènìyàn àti ẹran kúrò nínú rẹ.
Therefore this is what the Lord GOD says: I will bring a sword against you and cut off from you man and beast.
9 Ilẹ̀ Ejibiti yóò di aginjù àti ahoro, nígbà náà ní wọn yóò sì mọ̀ wí pé èmi ní Olúwa. “‘Nítorí tí ìwọ wí pé, “Tèmi ni odò Naili, Èmi ni mo ṣe é,”
The land of Egypt will become a desolate wasteland. Then they will know that I am the LORD. Because you said, ‘The Nile is mine; I made it,’
10 nítorí náà, mo lòdì sí ọ àti sí àwọn odò rẹ, èmi yóò sì mú kí ilẹ̀ Ejibiti di píparun àti ahoro, pátápátá, láti Migdoli lọ dé Siene, dé ààlà ilẹ̀ Kuṣi.
therefore I am against you and against your rivers. I will turn the land of Egypt into a ruin, a desolate wasteland from Migdol to Syene, and as far as the border of Cush.
11 Kò sí ẹsẹ̀ ènìyàn tàbí tí ẹranko tí yóò gba ibẹ̀ kọjá; ẹni kankan kò ní gbé ibẹ̀ fún ogójì ọdún.
No foot of man or beast will pass through, and it will be uninhabited for forty years.
12 Èmi yóò sọ ilẹ̀ Ejibiti di ọ̀kan ní àárín àwọn ìlú tí ó di ahoro, fún ogójì ọdún, Èmi yóò sì fọ́n àwọn ara Ejibiti ká sáàárín àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè, èmi yóò sì tú wọn ká sáàárín gbogbo ilẹ̀.
I will make the land of Egypt a desolation among desolate lands, and her cities will lie desolate for forty years among the ruined cities. And I will disperse the Egyptians among the nations and scatter them throughout the countries.
13 “‘Ṣùgbọ́n báyìí ní Olúwa Olódùmarè wí: Ní òpin ogójì ọdún, èmi yóò ṣa àwọn ará Ejibiti jọ láti ọ̀dọ̀ àwọn ènìyàn níbi tí a fọ́n wọn ká sí.
For this is what the Lord GOD says: At the end of forty years I will gather the Egyptians from the nations to which they were scattered.
14 Èmi yóò sì tún mú ìgbèkùn Ejibiti padà bọ̀, èmi yóò sì dá wọn padà sí ilẹ̀ Paturosi, ilẹ̀ àwọn baba ńlá wọn. Wọn yóò wà níbẹ̀ bí ìjọba tí a rẹ̀ sílẹ̀.
I will restore Egypt from captivity and bring them back to the land of Pathros, the land of their origin. There they will be a lowly kingdom.
15 Ibẹ̀ yóò jẹ́ ìjọba tí ó rẹlẹ̀ jùlọ nínú àwọn ìjọba, kì yóò sì gbé ara rẹ̀ ga mọ́ sórí àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè: nítorí èmi ni ó dín wọn kù, tiwọn kì yóò fi ṣe olórí àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè yòókù mọ́.
Egypt will be the lowliest of kingdoms and will never again exalt itself above the nations. For I will diminish Egypt so that it will never again rule over the nations.
16 Ejibiti kí yóò sì jẹ orísun ìgbẹ́kẹ̀lé fún ilé Israẹli mọ́ ṣùgbọ́n, yóò jẹ́ ìrántí fún àìṣedéédéé wọn, nígbà tí yóò bá wò wọ́n fún ìrànlọ́wọ́. Nígbà náà, wọn yóò mọ̀ pé èmi ni Olúwa Olódùmarè.’”
Egypt will never again be an object of trust for the house of Israel, but will remind them of their iniquity in turning to the Egyptians. Then they will know that I am the Lord GOD.”
17 Ó sì ṣe ní ọjọ́ kìn-ín-ní, oṣù kìn-ín-ní, ọdún kẹtàdínlọ́gbọ̀n, ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa tọ̀ mí wá wí pé:
In the twenty-seventh year, on the first day of the first month, the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
18 “Ọmọ ènìyàn, Nebukadnessari ọba Babeli mú kí ogun rẹ sin ìrú ńlá fún Tire. Gbogbo orí pá, àti gbogbo èjìká bó, síbẹ̀, òun àti àwọn ogun rẹ̀, kò rí owó ọ̀yà gbà láti Tire fún wa, fún ìrú ti a ti sìn.
“Son of man, Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon caused his army to labor strenuously against Tyre. Every head was made bald and every shoulder made raw. But he and his army received no wages from Tyre for the labor they expended on it.
19 Nítorí náà, báyìí ni Olúwa Olódùmarè wí: Kíyèsi i, Èmi yóò fi Ejibiti fún Nebukadnessari ọba Babeli, òun yóò sì kó ọrọ̀ rẹ̀ lọ. Òun yóò bo ilé, yóò sì ṣe ìkógun ilẹ̀ náà gẹ́gẹ́ bí owó iṣẹ́ tí a san fún ológun rẹ̀.
Therefore this is what the Lord GOD says: I will give the land of Egypt to Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, who will carry off its wealth, seize its spoil, and remove its plunder. This will be the wages for his army.
20 Èmi ti fi Ejibiti fún un gẹ́gẹ́ bí èrè wàhálà rẹ̀ nítorí òun àti àwọn ológun rẹ ṣe é fún mi, ni Olúwa Olódùmarè wí.
I have given him the land of Egypt as the reward for his labor, because it was done for Me, declares the Lord GOD.
21 “Ní ọjọ́ náà, èmi yóò mú kí ìwo Israẹli ru jáde, èmi yóò sì fún ọ ní ẹnu ọ̀rọ̀ ní àárín wọn. Nígbà náà ni wọn yóò mọ̀ pé èmi ni Olúwa.”
In that day I will cause a horn to sprout for the house of Israel, and I will open your mouth to speak among them. Then they will know that I am the LORD.”
