Ezekiel 17

1 Wach Jehova Nyasaye nobirona kama:

And the worde of the Lord came vnto mee, saying,

2 “Wuod dhano, nyis dhood Israel ngero moro.

Sonne of man, put foorth a parable and speake a prouerbe vnto the house of Israel,

3 Wachnegi ni ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto wacho: ‘Ne nitie ongo moro maduongʼ man kod bwombe madongo dongo kendo man-gi yier mokiko okiko kendo maboyo, nobiro Lebanon. Ongono nopiyo ewi yiend sida,

And say, Thus saith the Lord God, The great eagle with great wings, and long wings, and ful of fethers, which had diuers colours, came vnto Lebanon, and tooke the highest branch of the cedar,

4 mi ojako chuny yien-no mane pod dongo, kendo ne otingʼe odhi kode mabor nyaka e piny moro ma jo-ohala madongo, odakie kendo nopidhe e dala maduongʼ mar jo-ohalago.

And brake off the toppe of his twigge, and caried it into the land of marchants, and set it in a citie of marchants.

5 “‘Ne okawo kothe moko moa e puotheu kendo noketogi e lowo mamiyo. Nopidhe e tiend aora kama pi ngʼenyie mana kaka ipidho yien ma bedene odolore-odolore mati kuode ma pi nitie,

Hee tooke also of the seede of the lande, and planted it in a fruitfull ground: hee placed it by great waters, and set it as a willowe tree.

6 mine odongo modoko yiend mzabibu molak kendo oriere gi piny. Bedene nodongo modolore ochomo ongono, to tiendene to nomako lowo motegno. Omiyo nodoko yiend mzabibu ma bedene otimo otiep.

And it budded vp, and was like a spreading vine of low stature, whose branches turned toward it, and the rootes thereof were vnder it: so it became a vine, and it brought foorth branches, and shot foorth buds.

7 “‘To ne nitie ongo moro machielo maduongʼ ma bwombene otegno kendo opongʼ gi yier. Yiend mzabibuno koro tiendene ne lak koa kamane opidhe kochome kendo bedene bende nochako yarore kochome mondo oyud pi.

There was also another great eagle with great wings and many feathers, and beholde, this vine did turne her rootes toward it, and spred foorth her branches toward it, that she might water it by the trenches of her plantation.

8 Ne oyudo osepidhe e lowo maber kendo ma pi ngʼenyie mondo bedene othiew, onyag olemo, kendo obed yiend mzabibu maber.’

It was planted in a good soyle by great waters, that it should bring forth branches, and beare fruite, and be an excellent vine.

9 “Wachnegi ni ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto wacho: ‘Bende obiro dongo maber adier? Donge ibiro pudhe mi lwer olembene mi otwo? Kata otem loth kendo to obiro mana ner. Ok obi dwaro ngʼat maratego kata ji mangʼeny mondo opudhe oko gi tiendene.

Say thou, Thus saith the Lord God, Shall it prosper? shall he not pull vp the rootes thereof, and destroy the fruite thereof, and cause them to drie? all the leaues of her bud shall wither without great power, or many people, to plucke it vp by the rootes thereof.

10 To kata ka opidhe kendo, bende dolodh maber? Donge obiro ner chuth ka yamb ugwe ogoye moner e puodho kamane odonge?’”

Beholde, it was planted: but shall it prosper? shall it not be dried vp, and wither? when the East winde shall touch it, it shall wither in the trenches, where it grewe.

11 Eka wach Jehova Nyasaye nobirona kama:

Moreouer, the worde of the Lord came vnto me, saying,

12 “Wachne oganda ma jongʼanyogo ni, ‘Donge ungʼeyo tiend gigi?’ Wachnegi ni, ‘Ruodh Babulon nodhi Jerusalem momake ruodhe kod joge momew mi nodhi kodgi nyaka Babulon.

Say now to this rebellious house, Know ye not, what these things meane? tell them, Behold, the King of Babel is come to Ierusalem, and hath taken the King thereof, and the princes thereof, and led them with him to Babel,

13 Bangʼe ne okaw ngʼato moro moa e dhood joka ruoth kendo noloso kode winjruok e yor kwongʼruok. Nomako bende joma idewo mag pinyno mi odhigo,

And hath taken one of the Kings seede, and made a couenant with him, and hath taken an othe of him: he hath also taken the princes of the land,

14 mondo omi pinyruodhno otieki ma ok nyal chungʼ kendo, kendo odhi nyime mana korito winjruok mane oketi.

That the kingdome might be in subiection, and not lift it selfe vp, but keepe their couenant, and stand to it.

15 To ruoth noketho winjruok ma notimo kode kooro joote Misri mondo oom farese kod jolweny mangʼeny. To bende onyalo loyo lweny adier? Bende ngʼama timo gik ma kamago nyalo tony adier? Bende doketh winjruok mi otony?

But he rebelled against him, and sent his ambassadours into Egypt, that they might giue him horses, and much people: shall hee prosper? shall he escape, that doeth such things? or shall he breake the couenant, and be deliuered?

16 “‘Akwongʼora gi nyinga awuon an Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto ni obiro tho e piny Babulon, ma piny mar ruoth mane okete e loch, mosechayo singruok mane otimo kode, kendo moseketho winjruok mane otimne.

As I liue, saith the Lord God, he shall die in the middes of Babel, in the place of the King, that had made him King, whose othe he despised, and whose couenant made with him, he brake.

17 Farao kaachiel gi jolwenje maroteke kod oganda maduongʼ makedone ok bi konye e lweny, kata bed ni ogero raidhi kod ohinga mar agengʼa chiengʼ ma nakethie ngima ji mangʼeny.

Neither shall Pharaoh with his mightie hoste, and great multitude of people, mainteine him in the warre, when they haue cast vp mounts, and builded ramparts to destroy many persons.

18 Ne ochayo singruok kuom ketho winjruok. Nikech ne ok orito singruok mane osetimo, ok enotonyne kum.

For he hath despised the othe, and broken ye couenant (yet lo, he had giuen his hand) because he hath done all these things, he shall not escape.

19 “‘Kuom mano, ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto wacho: Akwongʼora gi nyinga awuon ni abiro kume nikech ne ok orito singruokna kod winjruok mane atimo kode.

Therefore, thus sayth the Lord God, As I liue, I wil surely bring mine othe that he hath despised, and my couenant that he hath broken vpon his owne head.

20 Abiro chikone obadho mondo amakego. Abiro kele nyaka Babulon mi akume kuno nikech ne ok orito adierana.

And I wil spread my net vpon him, and he shalbe taken in my net, and I wil bring him to Babel, and will enter into iudgement with him there for his trespas that he hath committed against me.

21 Jokedo mage duto ma notony gi ngʼwech biro podho e lak ligangla, kendo joge modongʼ noke kuonde duto. Eka unungʼe ni an Jehova Nyasaye ema asewuoyo.

And all that flee from him with all his hoste, shall fall by the sword, and they that remaine, shalbe scattered towarde all the windes: and ye shall know that I the Lord haue spoken it.

22 “‘Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto wacho: An awuon ema abiro kawo chuny maloth ewi midimidi mar yadh sida mi achak apidhe. Abiro chodo chunye ma pod yom e wiye malo mogik mi apidhi ewi got moro mabor moyombo gode.

Thus saith the Lord God, I wil also take off the top of this hie cedar, and wil set it, and cut off the top of the tender plant thereof, and I wil plant it vpon an hie mountaine and great.

23 Ewi gode madongo mag Israel ema abiro pidhee, kendo obiro yaro bedene kendo obiro nyago olemo mi obed yiend sida maratipo. Kit winy mopogore opogore biro gero utegi kuome, kendo gibiro yudo kar dak gi kar yweyo e bedene.

Euen in the hie mountaine of Israel will I plant it: and it shall bring forth boughes and beare fruite, and be an excellent cedar, and vnder it shall remaine all birds, and euery foule shall dwell in the shadow of the branches thereof.

24 Yiende duto mag puodho biro ngʼeyo ni an Jehova Nyasaye ema amiyo yien marabora doko machiek, to yien machiek amiyo dongo mi dok marabora. Amiyo yien momiyo maralum two to amiyo yien motwo loth. “‘An Jehova Nyasaye ema asewuoyo kendo abiro time.’”

And all the trees of the fielde shall knowe that I the Lord haue brought downe the hie tree, and exalted the lowe tree, that I haue dried vp the greene tree, and made the drie tree to florish: I the Lord haue spoken it, and haue done it.
