< Ezekiel 25 >

1 Kalpasanna, immay kaniak ti sao ni Yahweh a kunana,
[Some time later, ] Yahweh gave me another message. [He said, ]
2 ”Anak ti tao, isangom ti rupam kadagiti tattao ti Ammon ket agipadtoka maibusor kadakuada.
“You human, turn toward where the Ammon people- [lives], and prophesy [what will happen to] them.
3 Ibagam kadagiti tattao ti Ammon, ‘Denggenyo ti sao ti Apo a ni Yahweh. Kastoy ti kuna ti Apo a ni Yahweh: Kinunayo, “Aha!” maibusor iti santuariok idi natulawan daytoy, ken maibusor iti daga ti Israel idi nagbalin a langalang daytoy, ken maibusor iti balay ti Juda idi naipanawda a kas balud.
Say about them, ‘This is what Yahweh the Lord says: “You shouted joyfully when my [in Jerusalem] was destroyed, and when the country/land of Israel was ruined, and when the people of Judah were (exiled/forced to go) [to Babylonia].
4 Ngarud, dumngegkayo! Iyawatkayon kadagiti tattao iti daya a kas sanikuada; mangiyaramiddanto iti kampoda a maibusor kadakayo ken iyaramidda dagiti toldada iti ayanyo. Kanendanto dagiti bunga ti mulayo, ken inumendanto dagiti gatasyo!
Therefore, I am going to allow you to be conquered by people [who will come] from the east. They will set up their tents in your country and live there. And they will eat the fruit from [fruit trees] and drink the [from your cattle].
5 Ket pagbalinekto ti Rabba a maysa a pagpaaraban kadagiti kamelio ken pagpaaraban kadagiti arban ti talon dagiti tattao nga Ammon, isu a maammoanyonto a Siak ni Yahweh!
I will [your capital city] Rabbah to become a pasture for camels, and the rest of Ammon to [only] a resting place for sheep. Then you will know that I, Yahweh, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].”
6 Ta kastoy ti kuna ti Apo a ni Yahweh: Intipatyo dagiti imayo ken intabbugayo dagiti sakayo, ken nagragrag-okayo kadagiti amin a pananglalaisyo iti daga ti Israel.
This is what [I], Yahweh the Lord, say: “You clapped your [joyfully] and stomped your feet, and laughed because you despised [the people in] the land of Israel.
7 Isu a dumngegkayo! Isipatkonto kadakayo ti imak ken itedkayto a kas samsam kadagiti nasion. Isinakayto kadagiti tattao ken pukawenkayto kadagiti pagilian! Dadaelenkayto, ket maammoanyonto a Siak ni Yahweh!’
Therefore, I will use my power [MTY] against you, and I will enable [other] nations [conquer you and] take away your valuable possessions. I will destroy you completely [DOU], with the result that you no longer will be a nation. When that happens, people will know that I, Yahweh, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].’”
8 Kastoy ti kuna ti Apo a ni Yahweh, ‘Gapu ta ibagbaga ti Moab ken Seir, “Kitaenyo! Ti balay ti Juda ket kasla kadagiti dadduma a nasion!”
This is [also] what Yahweh the Lord says: “[The people of] [south of Ammon] and [the people of] [south of Moab despised Israel and] said, ‘The people [MTY] of Israel have [as unimportant] as all the other nations!’
9 Isu a dumngegkayo! Lukatakto dagiti beddeng iti Moab, manipud kadagiti siudadna nga ayan ti beddeng—ti kinangayed ti Bet Jesimot, Baal Meon ken Kariatim—
Therefore, I will destroy the cities that protect the borders of Moab, starting at Beth-Jeshimoth, Baal-Meon, and Kiriathaim, the finest cities in Moab.
10 kadagiti tattao iti daya a siguden a bumusbusor kadagiti tattao ti Ammon. Iyawatkonto ida a kasla maysa a sanikua tapno dagiti tattao ti Ammon ket saanton a malagip pay kadagiti nasion.
I will enable people from the east to conquer Moab and also to conquer Ammon. As a result, [I will cause that] Ammon will no longer be remembered by other nations.
11 Isu a kedngakto dagiti taga-Moab, ket maammoandanto a Siak ni Yahweh!’
I will also punish [the people of] Moab. When that happens, they will know that I, Yahweh, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].”
12 Kastoy ti kuna ti Apo a ni Yahweh, ‘Binales dagiti taga-Edom ti balay ti Juda ket nagbiddutda iti panangaramidda iti kasta.
This is [also] what Yahweh the Lord says: “[You people of] Edom are guilty of getting revenge on the people [MTY] of Judah.
13 Isu a kastoy ti kuna ti Apo a ni Yahweh: Isipatkonto ti imak iti Edom ken dadaelek ti amin a tao ken ayup sadiay. Pagbalinekto ida a nadadael, nabaybay-an a lugar, manipud Teman agingga iti Dedan. Mapasagdanto babaen iti kampilan!
Therefore this is what [I], Yahweh the Lord, say: 'I will use my power against [the people of] Edom and will get rid of their men and their animals. I will ruin the land from Teman [region in central Edom] to Dedan [region in the south of Edom], and many of their men will be killed [their enemies] swords.'
14 Iti kastoy a wagas, makaibalesakto iti Edom babaen iti ima dagiti tattaok nga Israelita, ket ipalak-amdanto iti Edom ti nalaus nga unget ken pungtotko! Isu a maammoandanto ti panagibalesko! —kastoy ti pakaammo ti Apo a ni Yahweh!’
The Israeli people will use their power [MTY] to get revenge on [the people of] Edom. They will show [the people of] Edom that I have been angry with them, and I will punish [MTY] them. The people of Edom will experience my getting revenge on them. Then they will know that I, Yahweh the Lord, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].”
15 Kastoy ti kuna ti Apo a ni Yahweh, ‘Nagibales dagiti Filisteo gapu iti nalaos a gurada ken inulit-ulitda a pinadpadas a dadaelen ti Juda.
This is [also] what Yahweh the Lord says: “The Philistia people-group wanted very much to get revenge [on the people of Judah]. They very maliciously wanted to destroy [Judah].
16 Isu a kastoy ti kuna ti Apo a ni Yahweh: Dumngegkayo! Iyunnatkonto ti imak kadagiti Filisteo, ken isinakto dagiti Kereteo ken dadaelek dagiti nabatbati nga adda kadagiti igid ti baybay!
Therefore this is what I, Yahweh the Lord, say: I am about to use my power [MTY] against the Philistia people. I will get rid of the Kereth people-group and all [those who live along] the coast of the [Mediterranean] Sea.
17 Ta balsekto ida iti nakaro babaen iti nakaro a panangdusak kadakuada, isu a maammoandanto a Siak ni Yahweh, inton balsek ida!”’
By the way I punish them, I will get great revenge on them and show that I am angry with them. And when I get revenge on them, they will know that I, Yahweh the Lord, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].'”
