Ezekiel 47
1 Then, [in the vision], the man brought me back to the entrance of the temple. There I saw water flowing out from under the entrance, flowing toward the east. The water was flowing from under the south side of the entrance, south of the altar.
Murume uyu akandidzosa pamukova wetemberi, ndikaona mvura yaibuda napasi pechikumbaridzo chetemberi kwakatarisa kumabvazuva, nokuti temberi yakanga yakatarira kumabvazuva. Mvura yakanga ichiyerera napasi nechezasi kwetemberi, nyasi kwearitari.
2 Then the man brought me out of the inner courtyard through the north entryway, and then he led me around to the outer entryway on the east side [of the inner courtyard].
Ipapo akandibudisa nokusuo rokumusoro akanditungamirira pakupoterera nechokunze kwesuo rokunze rakatarisana nokumabvazuva, uye mvura yaiyerera ichibva kurutivi rwezasi.
3 As the man continued walking toward the east, he had a measuring line in his hand. He measured off (1,750 feet/530 meters), and then led me through water that covered my ankles.
Murume uyu akati achifamba akananga kurutivi rwokumabvazuva ane rwodzi rwokuyeresa muruoko rwake, akayera makubhiti chiuru chimwe chete ndokubva ipapo andiyambutsa nomumvura yakanga yakadzika kusvika muzviziso zvamakumbo.
4 Then he measured off another (1,750 feet/530 meters) and led me through water that was up to my knees. Then he measured off another (1,750 feet/530 meters) and led me through water that was up to my waist.
Akayerazve chimwe chiuru chamakubhiti akandifambisa nomumvura yaisvika mumabvi. Akayerazve chimwe chiuru chimwe chete akandiyambutsa nomumvura yaisvika muchiuno.
5 Then he measured off another (1,750 feet/530 meters) and led me through water that had become a river that I could not cross, because the water had risen [very high, with the result that] it would be necessary to swim across it. It was a river that no one could cross [by walking across it].
Akayerazve chimwe chiuru chimwe chete, asi iye zvino rwakanga rwava rwizi rwandakanga ndisingagoni kuyambuka, nokuti mvura yakanga yawanda uye yakanga yadzika zvokuti munhu angashambira mairi, rwizi rwakanga rusina munhu angaruyambuka.
6 Then he said to me, “You human, think carefully about what you have seen.”
Akandibvunza akati, “Mwanakomana womunhu, unoona izvi here?” Ipapo akadzokera neni kumahombekombe orwizi.
7 Then he led me to the bank of that river. There I saw many trees growing on each side of the river.
Ndakati ndasvikako ndakaona miti mizhinji kurutivi rumwe norumwe rworwizi.
8 He said to me, “This water flows east and down into the [Dead] Sea. And when it flows into the [Dead] Sea, its salty water becomes fresh.
Iye akati kwandiri, “Mvura iyi inoyerera yakananga kunyika yokumabvazuva ichiburukira kuArabha kwainodira mugungwa. Painongodira mugungwa, mvura yomo inobva yanaka.
9 Wherever the river flows, there will be lots of animals and fish. And there will be lots of fish in the [Dead] Sea, because the water that flows into it will cause the salt water to become (fresh water/water that people can drink). Wherever the river flows, everything [alongside it] will flourish.
Zvose zvipenyu zvinokambaira zvichagara kwose nokunoyerera rwizi. Pachava nehove zhinji zhinji, nokuti mvura iyi inoyereramo ichiita kuti mvura yomunyu inatswe; saka kwose kunoyerera rwizi zvinhu zvose zvinorarama.
10 Fishermen will stand along the bank [of the Dead Sea to catch fish]. From En-Gedi [on the western side] to En-Eglaim [on the eastern side] there will be places [for fishermen] to spread their fishing nets. There will be many kinds of fish, like there are in the Mediterranean Sea.
Varedzi vehove vachamira vakatevedza mahombekombe; kubvira kuEni Gedhi kusvikira kuEni Egiraimu kuchava nenzvimbo dzokuteya mumbure. Pachava nemhando zhinji dzehove, kufanana nehove dzeGungwa Guru.
11 But the swamps and marshes [along the shore] will not become fresh; they will be left to the people to use make salt.
Asi matoro namachakwi haangavi nemvura yakanaka; zvichasarira munyu.
12 Many kinds of fruit trees will grow on both sides of the river. Their leaves will not wither, and they will always have fruit. They will bear fruit every month, because [they will continually get water from] the water [that comes] from the temple. Their fruit will be good to eat and their leaves will be [good] for healing.”
Miti yemichero yemarudzi ose ichamera kumativi ose emahombekombe orwizi. Mashizha ayo haangasvavi, uye haingashayi michero. Ichabereka zvibereko mwedzi woga woga, nokuti mvura inobva panzvimbo tsvene inoyerera madziri. Michero yayo ichava zvokudya zvavanhu uye mashizha ayo achaporesa vanhu.”
13 [In the vision], Yahweh [also] said this to me: “Here is a list of the twelve tribes of Israel and the territory that each tribe must receive. [The descendants of] Joseph will receive two portions; [the tribe of Levi will not receive any].
Zvanzi naIshe Jehovha: “Iyi ndiyo miganhu yaunofanira kuganhura nyika kuti ive nhaka pakati pamarudzi gumi namaviri aIsraeri, nemigove miviri yaJosefa.
14 I lifted up my arm and solemnly declared to your ancestors that I would give you this land to own permanently. [So divide the land equally among all of the other tribes].
Unofanira kuiganhura zvakaenzana pakati pavo. Nokuti ndakapika noruoko rwakasimudzwa kuti ndichaipa kumadzitateguru enyu, nyika iyi ichava nhaka yenyu.
15 These will be the boundaries of the land: On the north side, [it will extend] from the Mediterranean Sea east along the road to Hethlon, past Lebo-Hamath to Zedad,
“Iyi ndiyo inofanira kuva miganhu yenyika: “Kurutivi rwokumusoro uchabvira kuGungwa Guru nenzira yeHetironi uchipfuura nepaRebho Hamati kusvikira kuZedhadhi,
16 to [the cities of] Berothah and Sibraim, which are on the border between Damascus and Hamath. [From there the boundary will extend] as far [the city of] Hazer-Hatticon, which is on the border of the Hauran [region].
Bherota neSibhiraimu (iri pamuganhu weDhamasiko neHamati), kusvika kuHazeri Hatikoni riri pamuganhu weHaurani.
17 So the boundary will extend from the [Mediterranean] Sea to [the city of] Hazar-Enan on the border between Hamath to the north and Damascus [to the south]. That will be the northern boundary.
Muganhu uchaenda uchibva kugungwa uchindosvika kuHazari Enani, uchitevedza muganhu nokumusoro kweDhamasiko, nomuganhu weHamati kumusoro. Ndiwo uchava muganhu wokumusoro.
18 On the east side, the boundary [will extend] between Hauran and Damascus, [south] along the Jordan [River] between the Gilead [region] and the land of Israel, along the Dead Sea as far as [the town of] Tamar. That will be the eastern boundary.
Kurutivi rwokumabvazuva muganhu uchava pakati peHaurani neDhamasiko, uchitevedza Jorodhani pakati peGireadhi nenyika yeIsraeri, kusvikira kugungwa rokumabvazuva uye uchindosvika kuTamari. Ndiwo uchava muganhu wokumabvazuva.
19 On the south side, the boundary will extend from Tamar [southwest] to the springs near [the town of] Meribah-Kadesh. Then [the boundary will extend west] along the dry riverbed [at the border] of Egypt to the Mediterranean Sea. That will be the southern boundary.
Kurutivi rwezasi, uchabvira paTamari uchindosvika kumvura yeMeribha Kadheshi, ipapo wogotevedza Rukova rweIjipiti kusvikira kuGungwa Guru. Uyu ndiwo uchava muganhu wezasi.
20 On the west side, the boundary will be the Mediterranean Sea, north to near Lebo-Hamath.
Kurutivi rwokumavirira, Gungwa Guru richava muganhu kusvikira pakatarisana neRebho Hamati. Uyu ndiwo uchava muganhu wokumavirira.
21 You must distribute this land among yourselves, among the tribes of Israel.
“Munofanira kugovana nyika iyi pakati penyu zvakaenzanirana namarudzi aIsraeri.
22 You must allot the land to be a permanent possession for yourselves, and [also] to be a permanent possession of any foreigners who are living among you and raising their children. You must consider those people to be like you who were born Israelis, and they must be allotted land among the tribes of Israel.
Munofanira kugovana senhaka yenyu uye mugogoverawo vatorwa vagere pakati penyu vane vana. Munofanira kuvarangarira savaIsraeri vakaberekwa munyika ino; vanofanira kugoverwa nhaka pamwe chete nemi pakati pamarudzi aIsraeri.
23 Wherever foreigners are living, you must give them some land to belong to them permanently. [That is what I], Yahweh the Lord, declare.”
Murudzi rupi norupi mugere mutorwa, munofanira kumupa nhaka yake imomo,” ndizvo zvinotaura Ishe Jehovha.
