Ezekiel 29
1 Ní ọjọ́ kejìlá, oṣù kẹwàá, ọdún kẹwàá, ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa tọ̀ mí wá wí pé:
In the tenth year, in the tenth month, on the twelfth of the month, came the word of Yahweh unto 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 thy face against Pharaoh, king of Egypt, And prophesy against him, and against Egypt all of it:
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, and thou shalt say— Thus, saith My Lord Yahweh Behold me! against thee O Pharaoh king of Egypt, The great Crocodile that lieth along in the midst of his rivers: Who saith— My river is, mine own, Since I myself made it me!
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.
Therefore will I put hooks in thy jaws, And cause the fish of thy rivers to stick fast in thy scales, - And will bring thee up out of the midst of thy rivers, And, all the fish of thy rivers, to thy scales, shall stick fast;
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.
And I will stretch thee out towards the desert, Thee and all the fish of thy rivers, On the face of the field, shalt thou lie Thou shalt not be carried away nor shalt thou be gathered, To the wild beast of the earth and to the bird of the heavens, have I given thee for food.
6 Nígbà náà gbogbo àwọn olùgbé ni Ejibiti yóò mọ pé, Èmi ni Olúwa. “‘Ìwọ ti jẹ́ ọ̀pá ìyè fún ilé Israẹli.
So shall all the inhabitants of Egypt know that I, am Yahweh, Because they were a staff of reed 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.
Whensoever they took hold of thee by the hand, thou didst run through, and tear open for them every hand, —And whensoever they leaned upon thee, thou didst break, and caused all their loins to halt.
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, Thus saith My Lord Yahweh, Behold me! bringing upon thee a sword, - And I will cut off out of thee, 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,”
And the land of Egypt shall become an astonishment and a desolation, So shall they know that, I, am Yahweh, —Because he said— The river is mine own, Since, I, myself 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, behold me! against thee and against thy rivers, - And I will make the land of Egypt to be most desolate an astounding desolation, from Migdol to Syene even up to the boundary of Ethiopia:
11 Kò sí ẹsẹ̀ ènìyàn tàbí tí ẹranko tí yóò gba ibẹ̀ kọjá; ẹni kankan kò ní gbé ibẹ̀ fún ogójì ọdún.
The foot of man shall not pass through it, Nor shall the foot of beast, pass through it, Neither shall it be inhabited 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.
So will I make the land of Egypt a desolation in the midst of lands made desolate And her cities—in the midst of cities that have been laid waste, shall become a desolation forty years, - And I will disperse the Egyptians among the nations, And scatter them throughout the lands.
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 thus, saith My Lord Yahweh, — At the end of forty years, will I gather the Egyptians from among the peoples whither I had dispersed them;
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.
And I will turn the captivity of the Egyptians, And will cause them to return To the land of Pathros Upon the land of their nativity, - And they shall become, there a kingdom abased:
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.
More than [any of] the kingdoms, shall she be abased, And shall lift herself up no more over the nations, —Yea I will make them too small to 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.’”
So shall it become no more unto the house of Israel a security. Calling to mind iniquity, by their turning to follow them, - And they shall know that, I, am The Lord Yahweh.
17 Ó sì ṣe ní ọjọ́ kìn-ín-ní, oṣù kìn-ín-ní, ọdún kẹtàdínlọ́gbọ̀n, ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa tọ̀ mí wá wí pé:
And it came to pass in the twenty-seventh year in the first month on the first of the month, that the word of Yahweh came unto 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 Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon, hath made his army undergo a long service against Tyre, Every head, hath been made bald, and, Every shoulder, worn bare, — But pay, hath he had none nor hath his army, out of Tyre, for the service wherewith he hath served against 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, Thus, saith My Lord Yahweh, Behold me! giving to Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon, the land of Egypt, — And he shall carry off her multitude And capture her spoil And seize her prey, So shall she become pay 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.
As a reward for his labour wherewith he hath served, have I given to him the land of Egypt, —in that they wrought for me, Declareth My Lord, Yahweh.
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, will I cause to bud a horn for the house of Israel, And to thee, will I give an opening of mouth in their midst, So shall they know that, I, am Yahweh.
