Ezekiel 29
1 In the tenth year, in the tenth [month], in the twelfth [day] of the month, the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
Waggaa kurnaffaatti, jiʼa kurnaffaa keessa, guyyaa kudha lammaffaatti dubbiin Waaqayyoo akkana jedhee gara koo dhufe:
2 Son of man, set thy face against Pharaoh king of Egypt, and prophesy against him, and against all Egypt:
“Yaa ilma namaa, fuula kee gara Faraʼoon mooticha Gibxitti garagalfadhuutii isaa fi warra Gibxi hundaan mormuudhaan raajii dubbadhu.
3 speak, and say, Thus saith the Lord GOD: Behold, I am against thee, Pharaoh king of Egypt, the great dragon that lieth in the midst of his rivers, which hath said, My river is mine own, and I have made it for myself.
Isatti dubbadhuutii akkana jedhiin: ‘Waaqayyo Gooftaan akkana jedha: “‘Ati bineensi guddichi, kan lageen kee gidduu ciiftu, yaa Faraʼoon mooticha Gibxi, ani sitti nan kaʼa. Ati, “Lagni Abbayyaa kan koo ti; anatu ofuma kootiif isa uummate” jetta.
4 And I will put hooks in thy jaws, and I will cause the fish of thy rivers to stick unto thy scales; and I will bring thee up out of the midst of thy rivers, with all the fish of thy rivers which stick unto thy scales.
Ani garuu haʼoo kee keessa hokkoo kaaʼee akka qurxummiiwwan lageen keetii qola keetti maxxanan nan godha. Ani qurxummiiwwan qola keetti maxxanan hunda wajjinis lageen kee keessaa harkiseen si baasa.
5 And I will leave thee [thrown] into the wilderness, thee and all the fish of thy rivers: thou shalt fall upon the open field; thou shalt not be brought together, nor gathered: I have given thee for meat to the beasts of the earth and to the fowls of the heaven,
Siʼii fi qurxummiiwwan lageen keetii hunda gammoojjiitti nan gata. Ati dirree duwwaa irratti ni kufta; walitti hin qabamtu; hin awwaalamtus. Ani bineensota lafaatii fi allaattii samiitiif nyaata godheen si kenna.
6 And all the inhabitants of Egypt shall know that I am the LORD, because they have been a staff of reed to the house of Israel.
Warri Gibxi keessa jiraatan hundis akka ani Waaqayyo taʼe ni beeku. “‘Ati mana Israaʼeliif ulee shambaqqoo taateerta.
7 When they took hold of thee by thy hand, thou didst break, and didst rend all their shoulders: and when they leaned upon thee, thou brakest, and madest all their loins to be at a stand.
Yommuu isaan harkaan si qabatanitti baqaqxee gatiittii isaanii waraante; yommuu isaan sitti irkatanittis ati caccabdee akka dugdi isaanii hollatu goote.
8 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD: Behold, I will bring a sword upon thee, and will cut off from thee man and beast.
“‘Kanaafuu Waaqayyo Gooftaan akkana jedha: Ani goraadee sitti fidee namoota keetii fi horii isaanii nan fixa.
9 And the land of Egypt shall be a desolation and a waste; and they shall know that I am the LORD: because he hath said, The river is mine, and I have made it.
Gibxi duwwaa fi ona taati; isaanis akka ani Waaqayyo taʼe ni beeku. “‘Ati, “Lagni Abbayyaa kan koo ti; anatu isa uume” jetteertaatii;
10 therefore behold, I am against thee, and against thy rivers, and will make the land of Egypt an utter waste and desolation, from the tower of Seveneh even unto the border of Ethiopia.
kanaafuu ani sitti kaʼeera; lageen keettis kaʼeera; biyya Gibxis Migdoolii jalqabee hamma Aswaanitti, hamma daarii Itoophiyaatti diigamtuu fi ontuu nan godha.
11 No foot of man shall pass through it, nor foot of beast shall pass through it, neither shall it be inhabited forty years.
Miilli namaa yookaan kotteen horii karaa sana hin darbu; namni tokko iyyuu hamma waggaa afurtamaatti ishee keessa hin jiraatu.
12 And I will make the land of Egypt a desolation in the midst of the countries that are desolate, and her cities among the cities that are laid waste shall be a desolation forty years: and I will scatter the Egyptians among the nations, and will disperse them through the countries.
Ani biyyoota onan gidduutti biyya Gibxi nan onsa; magaalaawwan ishees magaalaawwan diigaman gidduutti waggaa afurtama ni onu. Namoota Gibxi immoo saboota keessa nan faffacaasa; biyyoota keessas isaan nan bittinneessa.
13 For thus saith the Lord GOD: At the end of forty years will I gather the Egyptians from the peoples whither they were scattered:
“‘Ammas Waaqayyo Gooftaan akkana jedha: Dhuma waggaa afurtamaatti ani namoota Gibxi saboota isaan itti bittinneeffaman keessaa walitti nan qaba.
14 and I will bring again the captivity of Egypt, and will cause them to return into the land of Pathros, into the land of their birth; and they shall be there a base kingdom.
Ani boojuudhaa isaan deebisee Phaxroos biyya abbootii isaaniitti isaan nan galcha. Achittis isaan mootummaa gad aanaa ni taʼu.
15 It shall be the basest of the kingdoms; neither shall it any more lift itself up above the nations: and I will diminish them, that they shall no more rule over the nations.
Isheenis mootummoota keessaa gad aantuu ni taati; deebitees saboota kaaniin olitti gonkumaa ol of hin kaaftu. Anis akka isheen lammata saboota kaan hin bulchineef ishee nan dadhabsiisa.
16 And it shall be no more the confidence of the house of Israel, bringing iniquity to remembrance, when they turn to look after them: and they shall know that I am the Lord GOD.
Biyyi Gibxi siʼachi uummata Israaʼeliif irkoo hin taatu; yoo isaan gargaarsaaf gara isheetti deebiʼan garuu isheen yaadannoo cubbuu isaanii taati. Ergasii isaan akka ani Waaqayyo Gooftaa taʼe ni beeku.’”
17 And it came to pass in the seven and twentieth year, in the first [month], in the first [day] of the month, the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
Waggaa digdamii torbaffaatti, jiʼa tokkoffaa keessa, guyyaa tokkoffaatti dubbiin Waaqayyoo akkana jedhee gara koo dhufe:
18 Son of man, Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon caused his army to serve a great service against Tyre: every head was made bald, and every shoulder was peeled: yet had he no wages, nor his army, from Tyre, for the service that he had served against it:
“Yaa ilma namaa, Nebukadnezar mootiin Baabilon duula jabaadhaan loltoota isaa Xiiroositti kaaseera; mataan nama hundaa molaaʼeera; gatiittiin nama hundaas luqqaʼeera. Taʼus innii fi loltoonni isaa duula jabaa Xiiroositti kaasaniin buʼaa tokko illee hin arganne.
19 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD: Behold, I will give the land of Egypt unto Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon; and he shall carry off her multitude, and take her spoil, and take her prey; and it shall be the wages for his army.
Kanaafuu Waaqayyo Gooftaan akkana jedha: Ani biyya Gibxi Nebukadnezar mootii Baabiloniif nan kenna; innis ishee boojiʼee qabeenya ishee saama. Kunis mindaa loltoota isaa taʼa.
20 I have given him the land of Egypt as his recompence for which he served, because they wrought for me, saith the Lord GOD.
Ani Gibxiin gatii dadhabbii isaa godhee isaaf kenneera; innii fi loltoonni isaa waan kana anaaf hojjetaniiruutii, jedha Waaqayyo Gooftaan.
21 In that day will I cause an horn to bud forth unto the house of Israel, and I will give thee the opening of the mouth in the midst of them; and they shall know that I am the LORD.
“Ani Guyyaa sana akka manni Israaʼel gaanfa baasu nan godha; isaan gidduuttis afaan kee nan saaqa. Isaanis akka ani Waaqayyo taʼe ni beeku.”
