Ezekiel 25
1 The word of the LORD came again unto me, saying,
Kisha neno la Yahwe likanijia, kusema,
2 Son of man, set your face against the Ammonites, and prophesy against them;
“Mwanadamu, weka uso wako juu ya watu wa Amoni na tabiri juu yao.
3 And say unto the Ammonites, Hear the word of the Lord GOD; Thus says the Lord GOD; Because you said, Aha, against my sanctuary, when it was profaned; and against the land of Israel, when it was desolate; and against the house of Judah, when they went into captivity;
Waambie watu wa Amoni, 'Sikiliza neno la Bwana Yahwe. Hivi ndivyo Bwana Yahwe asemavyo: Kwa sababu umesema, “Aha!” juu ya patakatifu pangu wakati palipotiwa unajisi, na juu ya nchi ya Israeli wakati ilipokuwa ukiwa, na juu ya nyumba ya Yuda wakati walipoenda utumwani,
4 Behold, therefore I will deliver you to the men of the east for a possession, and they shall set their palaces in you, and make their dwellings in you: they shall eat your fruit, and they shall drink your milk.
kwa hiyo, tazama, nitakupatia kwa watu katika mashariki kama milki yao. Watafanya kambi juu yako na kuweka mahema miongoni mwako. Watakula matunda yako na watakunywa maziwa yako.
5 And I will make Rabbah a stable for camels, and the Ammonites a couching place for flocks: and all of you shall know that I am the LORD.
Nitamfanya Raba malisho ya ngamia na watu wa Amoni shamba la mifugo. Kisha utajua yakwamba mimi ni Yahwe.
6 For thus says the Lord GOD; Because you have clapped your hands, and stamped with the feet, and rejoiced in heart with all your despite against the land of Israel;
Kwa kuwa Bwana Yahwe asema hivi: Umepigia makofi mikono yako na kupiga chapa miguu yako, na kufurahi pamoja na dharau ndani yako dhidi ya nchi ya Israeli.
7 Behold, therefore I will stretch out mine hand upon you, and will deliver you for a spoil to the heathen; and I will cut you off from the people, and I will cause you to perish out of the countries: I will destroy you; and you shall know that I am the LORD.
Kwa hiyo, tazama! Nitanyoosha mkono wangu na kukupatia kama mateka kwa mataifa. Nitakukatilia mbali kutoka watu na kukuangamiza kutoka miongoni mwa nchi! Nitakuharibu, na utajua yakwamba mimi ni Yahwe.'
8 Thus says the Lord GOD; Because that Moab and Seir do say, Behold, the house of Judah is like unto all the heathen;
Bwana Yahwe asema hivi, 'Kwa sababu Moabu na Seiri husema “Tazama! Nyumba ya Yuda ni kama kila taifa jingine.”
9 Therefore, behold, I will open the side of Moab from the cities, from his cities which are on his frontiers, the glory of the country, Bethjeshimoth, Baalmeon, and Kiriathaim,
Kwa hiyo, tazama! ntafungua miteremko ya Moabu, kuanzia kwenye miji yake juu ya mpaka-uzuri wa Beth Yeshimothi, Baal Meoni, na Kiriathaimu-
10 Unto the men of the east with the Ammonites, and will give them in possession, that the Ammonites may not be remembered among the nations.
kwa watu wa mashariki waliokuwa juu ya watu wa Amoni. Nitawapatia kama milki ili kwamba watu wa Amoni hawatakumbukwa miongoni mwa mataifa.
11 And I will execute judgments upon Moab; and they shall know that I am the LORD.
Hivyo nitafanya hukumu juu ya Moabu, na watajua yakwamba mimi ni Yahwe.'
12 Thus says the Lord GOD; Because that Edom has dealt against the house of Judah by taking vengeance, and has greatly offended, and revenged himself upon them;
Bwana Yahwe asema hivi, Edomu amelipiza kisasi juu ya nyumba ya Yuda na amefanya makosa katika kufanya hivyo.
13 Therefore thus says the Lord GOD; I will also stretch out mine hand upon Edom, and will cut off man and beast from it; and I will make it desolate from Teman; and they of Dedan shall fall by the sword.
Kwa hiyo, Bwana Yahwe asema hivi: Nitaunyoosha mkono wangu juu ya Edomu na kumharibu kila mtu na wanyama huko. Nitawaharibu, sehemu ya ukiwa, kutoka Temani hata Dedani. Wataanguka kwa upanga.
14 And I will lay my vengeance upon Edom by the hand of my people Israel: and they shall do in Edom according to mine anger and according to my fury; and they shall know my vengeance, says the Lord GOD.
Nitaweka kisasi changu juu ya Edomu kwa mkono wa watu wangu Israeli, na watafanya kwa Edomu kulingana na hasira yangu na ghadhabu yangu, na wakitajua kisasi changu-hivi ndivyo Bwana Yahwe asemavyo.'
15 Thus says the Lord GOD; Because the Philistines have dealt by revenge, and have taken vengeance with a despiteful heart, to destroy it for the old hatred;
Bwana Yahwe asema hivi, 'Wafilisti wamelipiza kisasi pamoja na uovu na kutoka ndani yao wamejaribu kuiharibu Yuda tena na tena.
16 Therefore thus says the Lord GOD; Behold, I will stretch out mine hand upon the Philistines, and I will cut off the Cherethims, and destroy the remnant of the sea coast.
Basi hivi ndivyo Bwana Yahwe asemavyo: Tazam! Nitanyoosha mkono wangu dhidi ya Wafilisti, na nitakalia mbali Wakerethi na kuwaharibu mabaki yaliyobaki karibu na pwani.
17 And I will execute great vengeance upon them with furious rebukes; and they shall know that I am the LORD, when I shall lay my vengeance upon them.
Kwa kuwa nitalipiza kisasi kikubwa dhidi yao pamoja na matendo ya ghadhabu kubwa ya adhabu, hivyo watajua yakwamba mimi ni Yahwe, nitakapolipiza kisasi juu yao.”'
