Hezekiel 39

1 “Ame vi, gblɔ nya ɖi ɖe Gog ŋu, eye nàgblɔ be, ‘Ale Aƒetɔ Yehowa gblɔe nye esi: Metso ɖe ŋuwò, O! Gog, wò ame si nye Mesek kple Tubal ƒe amegã.

Therefore, thou sonne of man, prophecie against Gog, and say, Thus sayeth the Lord God, Behold, I come against thee, O Gog, ye chiefe prince of Meshech and Tubal.

2 Matrɔ wò to eme ahe wò. Makplɔ wò tso keke anyiehe ke, eye mana nàtso ɖe Israel ƒe towo ŋu.

And I will destroy thee and leaue but the sixt part of thee, and will cause thee to come vp from the North partes and will bring thee vpon the mountaines of Israel:

3 Ekema maƒo wò da le wò miasi me, eye mana wò datiwo nage tso wò nuɖusime.

And I will smite thy bowe out of thy left hand, and I will cause thine arrowes to fall out of thy right hand.

4 Àdze anyi ɖe Israel ƒe towo dzi, wò kple wò aʋawɔlawo katã kple dukɔ siwo le dziwò. Mana nàzu nuɖuɖu na xevi ʋulãɖulawo kple lã wɔadãwo katã.

Thou shalt fal vpon the mountaines of Israel, and all thy bands and the people, that is with thee: for I will giue thee vnto the birdes and to euery feathered foule and beast of the fielde to be deuoured.

5 Àdze anyi ɖe gbedzi, elabena meƒo nu; Aƒetɔ Yehowae gblɔe.

Thou shalt fall vpon the open fielde: for I haue spoken it, sayth the Lord God.

6 Mana dzo nadze Magog kple ame siwo le dedinɔnɔ me le ƒutanyigbawo dzi la dzi, eye woanya be, nyee nye Yehowa.

And I will sende a fire on Magog, and among them that dwell safely in the yles, and they shall knowe that I am the Lord.

7 “‘Mana woanya nye ŋkɔ kɔkɔe la le nye amewo, Israelviwo dome. Nyemagana woagado gu nye ŋkɔ kɔkɔe la o, eye dukɔwo anya be, nye, Yehowae nye Kɔkɔetɔ la le Israel.

So will I make mine holy Name knowen in the middes of my people Israel, and I will not suffer them to pollute mine holy Name any more, and the heathen shall knowe that I am the Lord, the holy one of Israel.

8 Egbɔna! Ava eme godoo, Aƒetɔ Yehowae gblɔe. Egbee nye ŋkeke si ŋu meƒo nu tsoe.

Beholde, it is come, and it is done, sayeth the Lord God: and this is the day whereof I haue spoken.

9 “‘Ekema ame siwo le Israel ƒe duwo me la, ado go, eye woawɔ woƒe aʋawɔnuwo ŋu dɔ abe dzodonuwo ene, woatɔ dzo wo, akpoxɔnu ɖagbitɔwo kple gãtɔwo siaa, woƒe dawo kple datiwo siaa, woƒe kpowo kple akplɔwo siaa. Woawɔ wo ŋu dɔ hena dzododo ƒe adre sɔŋ.

And they that dwell in the cities of Israel, shall goe forth, and shall burne and set fire vpon the weapons, and on the shieldes, and bucklers, vpon the bowes, and vpon the arrowes, and vpon the staues in their handes, and vpon the speares, and they shall burne them with fire seuen yeeres.

10 Mahiã wo be woafɔ nake le gbedzi loo alo alãe le avewo me o, elabena woawɔ aʋawɔnuwo ŋu dɔ abe dzodonuwo ene. Emegbe la, woada adzo ame siwo da adzo wo, eye woaha ame siwo ha wo. Aƒetɔ Yehowae gblɔe.

So that they shall bring no wood out of the fielde, neither cut downe any out of the forestes: for they shall burne the weapons with fire, and they shall robbe those that robbed them, and spoyle those that spoyled them, sayeth the Lord God.

11 “‘Gbe ma gbe la, mana ameɖiƒe Gog le Israel le ame siwo zɔa mɔ yia ɣetoɖoƒe, ɖoa ta Atsiaƒu la gbɔ la ƒe balime. Axe mɔ na mɔzɔlawo, elabena woaɖi Gog kple eƒe ameha la katã ɖe afi ma. Ale woayɔe be Hamɔn Gog ƒe balime.

And at the same time will I giue vnto Gog a place there for burial in Israel, euen the valley whereby men go towarde the East part of the sea: and it shall cause them that passe by, to stoppe their noses, and there shall they bury Gog with all his multitude: and they shall call it the valley of Hamon-Gog.

12 “‘Israel ƒe aƒe la anɔ wo ɖim ale be wòakɔ anyigba la ŋuti ɣleti adre.

And seuen moneths long shall the house of Israel be burying of the, that they may clense the land.

13 Anyigba la dzi tɔwo katã aɖi wo, eye gbe si gbe woade bubu ŋutinye la, anye ŋkeke si dzi woaɖo ŋkui la na wo.’ Aƒetɔ Yehowae gblɔe.

Yea, all the people of the lande shall burie them, and they shall haue a name when I shall be glorified, saith the Lord God.

14 Woatsɔ amewo ɖaa be woakɔ anyigba la ŋuti. Ame aɖewo azɔ ato anyigba la dzi, hekpe ɖe woawo ŋu la, ame bubuwo aɖi ame kuku siwo aganɔ anyigba kokoko. “‘Le ɣleti adrea ƒe nuwuwu la, woagadze woƒe nudidi gɔme.

And they shall chuse out men to goe continually through the lande with them that trauaile, to bury those that remaine vpon ye ground, and clense it: they shall search to the ende of seuen moneths.

15 Ne wole anyigba la dzi tsam, eye wo dometɔ ɖeka kpɔ ameƒu aɖe la, ade dzesi teƒe la va se ɖe esime yɔdokulawo aɖii ɖe Hamɔn Gog ƒe Balime.

And the trauailers that passe through the land, if any see a mans bone, then shall he set vp a signe by it, till the buriers haue buried it, in the valley of Hamon-Gog.

16 Kpe ɖe nu sia ŋu la, du si woyɔna be Hamona hã anɔ afi ma. Ale woakɔ anyigba la ŋuti.’

And also the name of the citie shalbe Hamonah: thus shall they clense the land.

17 “Ame vi, ale Aƒetɔ Yehowa gblɔe nye esi: Yɔ xevi ɖe sia ɖe ƒomevi kple lã wɔadãwo katã. Gblɔ na wo be, ‘Miƒo ƒu, eye mi katã miva tso goawo katã me hena vɔsa si mele dzadzram ɖo na mi, vɔsa gã la le Israel ƒe towo dzi. Afi ma miaɖu lã, eye miano ʋu.

And thou sonne of man, thus sayeth the Lord God, Speake vnto euery feathered foule, and to all the beastes of the fielde, Assemble your selues, and come gather your selues on euery side to my sacrifice: for I do sacrifice a great sacrifice for you vpon the mountaines of Israel, that ye may eate flesh, and drinke blood.

18 Miaɖu amegãwo ƒe lã, eye miano anyigbadzifiawo ƒe ʋu abe agbowo kple alẽviwo, gbɔ̃wo kple nyitsuwo wonye ene; lã siawo katã nye lã damiwo tso Basan.

Ye shall eate the flesh of the valiant, and drink the blood of the princes of the earth, of the weathers, of the lambes, and of the goates, and of bullockes, euen of all fat beastes of Bashan.

19 Le nye vɔsa si mele dzadzram ɖo na mi ƒe ŋkekea dzi la, miaɖu lãmi aɖi ƒo, eye miano ʋu va se ɖe esime miamu.

And ye shall eate fat till you be full, and drinke blood, till ye be drunken of my sacrifice, which I haue sacrificed for you.

Thus you shalbe filled at my table with horses and chariots, with valiant men, and with al men of warre, sayth the Lord God.

21 “Maɖe nye ŋutikɔkɔe afia le dukɔwo dome, eye dukɔwo katã akpɔ to si mehe na wo kple asi si meda ɖe wo dzi.

And I wil set my glory among the heathe, and all the heathen shall see my iudgement, that I haue executed, and mine hand, which I haue layed vpon them.

22 Tso gbe ma gbe dzi la, Israel ƒe aƒe la anya be nyee nye Yehowa, woƒe Mawu.

So the house of Israel shall knowe, that I am the Lord their God from that day and so forth.

23 Dukɔawo hã anya be Israelviwo yi aboyome le woƒe nu vɔ̃wo ta, elabena womewɔ nuteƒe nam o. Eya ta meɣla nye ŋkume ɖe wo, metsɔ wo de asi na woƒe futɔwo, eye wo katã wotsi yi nu.

And the heathen shall knowe, that ye house of Israel went into captiuitie for their iniquitie, because they trespassed against me: therefore hid I my face from them, and gaue them into ye hand of their enemies: so fell they all by the sword.

24 Mewɔ nu ɖe wo ŋu le woƒe makɔmakɔnyenye kple woƒe dzidadawo nu, eye meɣla nye mo ɖe wo.

According to their vncleannes, and according to their transgressions haue I done vnto the, and hid my face from them.

25 “Eya ta ale Aƒetɔ Yehowa gblɔe nye esi, ‘Azɔ la, makplɔ Yakob agbɔe tso aboyome, makpɔ nublanui na Israelviwo katã, eye maʋã ŋu ɖe nye ŋkɔ kɔkɔe la ta.

Therefore thus sayth the Lord God, Nowe will I bring againe the captiuitie of Iaakob, and haue compassion vpon the whole house of Israel, and wil be ielous for mine holy Name,

26 Woaŋlɔ woƒe ŋukpe kple aglã siwo katã wodze ɖe ŋunye la be, esime wonɔ dedie le woƒe anyigba si dzi ame aɖeke medo ŋɔdzi na wo le o.

After that they haue borne their shame, and all their transgression, whereby they haue transgressed against me, whe they dwelt safely in their land, and without feare of any.

27 Ne mekplɔ wo gbɔe tso woƒe futɔwo ƒe anyigba dzi la, maɖe ɖokuinye afia kɔkɔe le dukɔ geɖewo ŋkume.

When I haue brought them againe from the people, and gathered them out of their enemies landes, and am sanctified in them in the sight of many nations,

28 Ekema woanya be nyee nye Yehowa, woƒe Mawu, elabena togbɔ be meɖo wo ɖe aboyome ɖe dukɔwo dome hã la, maƒo wo nu ƒu, woava woawo ŋutɔ ƒe anyigba dzi, eye nyemagblẽ ɖeke ɖi o.

Then shall they know, that I am the Lord their God, which caused them to be led into captiuitie among the heathen: but I haue gathered them vnto their owne land, and haue left none of them any more there,

29 Nyemagaɣla nye mo ɖe wo o, elabena makɔ nye Gbɔgbɔ ɖe Israel ƒe aƒe la dzi.’ Aƒetɔ Yehowae gblɔe.”

Neither wil I hide my face any more from them: for I haue powred out my Spirit vpon the house of Israel, sayth the Lord God.
