Ezekiela 29
1 Tamin’ ny andro faharoa ambin’ ny folo tamin’ ny volana fahafolo tamin’ ny taona fahafolo dia tonga tamiko ny tenin’ i Jehovah nanao hoe:
In the tenth year, in the tenth month, in the twelfth day of the month, the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
2 Ry zanak’ olona, manandrifia an’ i Farao, mpanjakan’ i Egypta, ka maminania ny hamelezana azy mbamin’ i Egypta rehetra.
Son of man, set your face against Pharaoh king of Egypt, and prophesy against him, and against all Egypt:
3 Mitenena, ka ataovy hoe: Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah Tompo: Indro, avy hamely anao Aho, ry Farao, mpanjakan’ i Egypta, ilay dragona makadiry mamitsaka ao amin’ ny Neiliny, dia ilay efa nanao hoe: Ahy ny Neiliko, fa izaho no namorona azy ho an’ ny tenako.
Speak, and say, Thus says the Lord GOD; Behold, I am against you, Pharaoh king of Egypt, the great dragon that lies in the middle of his rivers, which has said, My river is my own, and I have made it for myself.
4 Ary hasiako farango ny valanoranonao, sady hampiraiketiko amin’ ny kiranao ny hazandrano ao amin’ ny Neilinao, dia hampiakariko avy eo afovoan’ ny Neilinao ianao, ary ny hazandrano rehetra amin’ ny Neilinao dia hiraikitra amin’ ny kiranao.
But I will put hooks in your jaws, and I will cause the fish of your rivers to stick to your scales, and I will bring you up out of the middle of your rivers, and all the fish of your rivers shall stick to your scales.
5 Ary hariako any an-efitra ianao, dia ianao sy ny hazandrano rehetra avy amin’ ny Neilinao; hitsitsitra eny an-tanety ianao ka tsy hovorina na hangonina; Efa nomeko hohanin’ ny bibi-dia sy ny voro-manidina ianao.
And I will leave you thrown into the wilderness, you and all the fish of your rivers: you shall fall on the open fields; you shall not be brought together, nor gathered: I have given you for meat to the beasts of the field and to the fowls of the heaven.
6 dia ho fantatry ny mponina rehetra any Egypta fa Izaho no Jehovah, satria efa tehina volotara ho an’ ny taranak’ Isiraely izy.
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.
7 (Nony mandray anao amin’ ny tànany izy, dia folaka ianao, ka voatsindronao ny helik’ izy rehetra; Ary nony mitehina aminao izy, dia tapaka ianao ka mampilefidefitra ny valahan’ izy rehetra.)
When they took hold of you by your hand, you did break, and rend all their shoulder: and when they leaned on you, you brake, and made all their loins to be at a stand.
8 Dia izao no lazain’ i Jehovah Tompo: Indro, hahatonga sabatra hamely anao Aho, ka hofongorako tsy ho aminao ny olona sy ny biby.
Therefore thus says the Lord GOD; Behold, I will bring a sword on you, and cut off man and beast out of you.
9 Ary ny tany Egypta ho rava sy lao; Ka dia ho fantatra fa Izaho no Jehovah. Satria hoy izy: Ahy Neily, ary izaho no nanao azy,
And the land of Egypt shall be desolate and waste; and they shall know that I am the LORD: because he has said, The river is mine, and I have made it.
10 Dia, indro, avy hamely anao sy ny Neilinao Aho, ary ny tany Egypta hataoko lao tokoa, eny, sady ho lao no ho rava, hatrany Migdola ka hatrany Syena, dia hatramin’ ny sisin’ i Etiopia.
Behold, therefore I am against you, and against your rivers, and I will make the land of Egypt utterly waste and desolate, from the tower of Syene even to the border of Ethiopia.
11 Tsy hodiavin-tongotr’ olona ny tany, ary ny tongo-biby aza tsy handia azy, sady tsy honenana efa-polo taona izy.
No foot of man shall pass through it, nor foot of beast shall pass through it, neither shall it be inhabited forty years.
12 Ary hataoko tany rava dia rava ny tany Egypta, ary ho lao dia ho lao efa-polo taona ny tanànany; Eny, haeliko ho any amin’ ny firenena samy hafa ny Egyptiana, ary hahahako any amin’ ny tany samy hafa.
And I will make the land of Egypt desolate in the middle of the countries that are desolate, and her cities among the cities that are laid waste shall be desolate forty years: and I will scatter the Egyptians among the nations, and will disperse them through the countries.
13 Fa izao no lazain’ i Jehovah Tompo: Rehefa afaka efa-polo taona, dia hangoniko avy any amin’ ny firenena izay nielezany ny Egyptiana:
Yet thus says the Lord GOD; At the end of forty years will I gather the Egyptians from the people where they were scattered:
14 Ary haveriko avy amin’ ny fahababoany izy, ka hampodiko any amin’ ny tany Patrosa, tany nihaviany, izy; Ary ho fanjakana ambany Egypta;
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 habitation; and they shall be there a base kingdom.
15 Eny, ho ambany noho ny fanjakana hafa izy ka tsy hisandratra ambonin’ ny firenena hafa intsony; Fa hohakeleziko izy ka tsy hampanompo ny firenena intsony.
It shall be the basest of the kingdoms; neither shall it exalt itself any more above the nations: for I will diminish them, that they shall no more rule over the nations.
16 Dia tsy ho tokin’ ny taranak’ Isiraely intsony izy ho fampahatsiarovana ny helony amin’ ny andehanan’ ireo hanaraka azy; Ka dia ho fantatra fa Izaho no Jehovah Tompo.
And it shall be no more the confidence of the house of Israel, which brings their iniquity to remembrance, when they shall look after them: but they shall know that I am the Lord GOD.
17 Ary tamin’ ny andro voalohany tamin’ ny volana voalohany tamin’ ny taona fahafito amby roa-polo dia tonga tamiko ny tenin’ i Jehovah nanao hoe:
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 to me, saying,
18 Ry zanak’ olona, mafy ny fanompoana izay nampanaovin’ i Nebokadnezara, mpanjakan’ i Babylona, ny miaramilany tamin’ ny namelezany an’ i Tyro, ka efa samy tonga sola avokoa ny lohany, sady niendaka ny sorony, nefa tsy nahazo karama avy tany Tyro izy sy ny miaramilany noho ny fanompoana izay nataony tamin’ ny namelezany azy.
Son of man, Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon caused his army to serve a great service against Tyrus: every head was made bald, and every shoulder was peeled: yet had he no wages, nor his army, for Tyrus, for the service that he had served against it:
19 Koa izao no lazain’ i Jehovah Tompo: Indro, homeko an’ i Nebokadnezara, mpanjakan’ i Babylona, ny tany Egypta, dia halainy ny hareny, ary hobaboiny izay hita ao, ka hataony sambotra izay azo ao, koa izany no ho karaman’ ny miaramilany.
Therefore thus says the Lord GOD; Behold, I will give the land of Egypt to Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon; and he shall take her multitude, and take her spoil, and take her prey; and it shall be the wages for his army.
20 Ho valin’ ny fanompoana nataony tany Tyro no nanomezako azy ny tany Egypta, satria nataony ho Ahy izany, hoy Jehovah Tompo.
I have given him the land of Egypt for his labor with which he served against it, because they worked for me, says the Lord GOD.
21 Amin’ izany andro izany dia hampitsimoka tandroka ho an’ ny taranak’ Isiraely Aho, ary hampiloahiko vava eo aminy ianao; ka dia ho fantatra fa Izaho no Jehovah.
In that day will I cause the horn of the house of Israel to bud forth, and I will give you the opening of the mouth in the middle of them; and they shall know that I am the LORD.
