Ezekiel 31

1 Ní ọjọ́ kìn-ín-ní, oṣù kẹta ọdún kọkànlá, ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa tọ̀ mí wá:

And it came to pass in the eleventh year, in the third [month], in the first [day] of the month, that the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,

2 “Ọmọ ènìyàn, sọ fún Farao ọba Ejibiti àti sí ìjọ rẹ̀: “‘Ta ní a le fiwé ọ ní ọláńlá?

Son of man, say unto Pharaoh king of Egypt, and to his multitude; Whom art thou like in thy greatness?

3 Kíyèsi Asiria, tí ó jẹ́ igi kedari ni Lebanoni ní ìgbà kan rí, pẹ̀lú àwọn ẹ̀ka dáradára tí ó ṣẹ́ ìji bo igbó náà; tí ó ga sókè, òkè rẹ̀ lókè ni ewé tí ó nípọn wà.

Behold, the Assyrian was a cedar in Lebanon with fair branches, and with a shadowing shroud, and of an high stature; and his top was among the thick boughs.

4 Omi mú un dàgbàsókè: orísun omi tí ó jinlẹ̀ mú kí o dàgbàsókè; àwọn odo rẹ̀ ń sàn yí ìdí rẹ̀ ká, ó sì rán ìṣàn omi rẹ̀ sí gbogbo igi orí pápá.

The waters nourished him, the deep made him to grow: her rivers ran round about her plantation; and she sent out her channels unto all the trees of the field.

5 Nítorí náà ó ga sí òkè fíofío ju gbogbo igi orí pápá lọ; ẹ̀ka rẹ̀ pọ̀ sí i àwọn ẹ̀ka rẹ̀ sì gùn, wọn tẹ́ rẹrẹ nítorí ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ omi.

Therefore his stature was exalted above all the trees of the field: and his boughs were multiplied, and his branches became long by reason of many waters, when he shot [them] forth.

6 Ẹyẹ ojú ọ̀run kọ ilé sí ẹ̀ka rẹ̀ gbogbo ẹranko igbó ń bímọ ní abẹ́ ẹ̀ka rẹ̀; gbogbo orílẹ̀-èdè ńlá ń gbé abẹ́ ìji rẹ̀.

All the fowls of heaven made their nests in his boughs, and under his branches did all the beasts of the field bring forth their young, and under his shadow dwelt all great nations.

7 Ọláńlá ní ẹwà rẹ̀ jẹ́, pẹ̀lú títẹ́ rẹrẹ ẹ̀ka rẹ̀, nítorí gbòǹgbò rẹ̀ lọ sí ìsàlẹ̀ sí ibi tí ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ omi wà.

Thus was he fair in his greatness, in the length of his branches: for his root was by many waters.

8 Àwọn igi kedari nínú ọgbà Ọlọ́run kò lè è bò ó mọ́lẹ̀; tàbí kí àwọn igi junifa ṣe déédé pẹ̀lú ẹ̀ka rẹ̀, tàbí kí a fi igi títẹ́ rẹrẹ wé ẹ̀ka rẹ̀, kò sí igi nínú ọgbà Ọlọ́run tí ó dà bí rẹ̀ ní ẹwà rẹ̀.

The cedars in the garden of God could not hide him: the fir trees were not like his boughs, and the plane trees were not as his branches; nor was any tree in the garden of God like unto him in his beauty.

9 Mo mú kí ó ní ẹwà pẹ̀lú ẹ̀ka lọ́pọ̀lọ́pọ̀ tó fi jẹ́ ìlara àwọn igi gbogbo ní Edeni tí í ṣe ọgbà Ọlọ́run.

I made him fair by the multitude of his branches: so that all the trees of Eden, that were in the garden of God, envied him.

10 “‘Nítorí náà, èyí yìí ní Olúwa Olódùmarè wí: Nítorí pé ó ga lọ sókè fíofío, tí ó sì gbé òkè rẹ̀ ga ju ewé tí ó nípọn lọ, àti nítorí pé gíga rẹ mú kí ó gbéraga,

Therefore thus said the Lord GOD: Because thou art exalted in stature, and he hath set his top among the thick boughs, and his heart is lifted up in his height;

11 mo fi lé alákòóso àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè náà lọ́wọ́, fún un láti fi ṣe ẹ̀tọ́ fún un gẹ́gẹ́ bí ìwà búburú rẹ̀. Mo pa á tì sí ẹ̀gbẹ́ kan,

I will even deliver him into the hand of the mighty one of the nations; he shall surely deal with him: I have driven him out for his wickedness.

12 àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè àjèjì aláìláàánú jùlọ ké e lulẹ̀, wọn sì fi kalẹ̀. Àwọn ẹ̀ka rẹ̀ ṣubú sórí òkè àti sí gbogbo àárín àwọn òkè; àwọn ẹ̀ka rẹ̀ tí ó ṣẹ nà sílẹ̀ ní gbogbo àlàfo jíjìn ilẹ̀. Gbogbo àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè ilẹ̀ ayé jáde kúrò ní abẹ́ ìji rẹ̀ wọn sì fi sílẹ̀.

And strangers, the terrible of the nations, have cut him off, and have left him: upon the mountains and in all the valleys his branches are fallen, and his boughs are broken by all the watercourses of the land; and all the peoples of the earth are gone down from his shadow, and have left him.

13 Gbogbo àwọn ẹyẹ ojú ọ̀run ṣe àtìpó ni orí igi tí ó ṣubú lulẹ̀ náà, gbogbo àwọn ẹranko igbó wà ní àárín ẹ̀ka rẹ̀.

Upon his ruin all the fowls of the heaven shall dwell, and all the beasts of the field shall be upon his branches:

14 Nítorí náà kò sí igi mìíràn lẹ́gbẹ̀ẹ́ omi tí ó lè fi ìgbéraga ga sókè fíofío, tí yóò sì gbé sókè rẹ̀ ga ju ewé tí ó nípọn lọ. Kò sí igi mìíràn tí ó ní omi tó bẹ́ẹ̀ tí ó lè ga tó bẹ́ẹ̀; gbogbo wọn ni a kádàrá ikú fún, fún ìsàlẹ̀ ilẹ̀, ní àárín àwọn alààyè ènìyàn, pẹ̀lú àwọn tí o lọ sí ọ̀gbun ní ìsàlẹ̀.

to the end that none of all the trees by the waters exalt themselves in their stature, neither set their top among the thick boughs, nor that their mighty ones stand up in their height, [even] all that drink water: for they are all delivered unto death, to the nether parts of the earth, in the midst of the children of men, with them that go down to the pit.

15 “‘Èyí ni Olúwa Olódùmarè wí: Ní ọjọ́ ti a mú u wá sí isà òkú mo fi ọ̀fọ̀ ṣíṣe bo orísun omi jíjìn náà, mo dá àwọn ìṣàn omi rẹ̀ dúró, àti ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ omi rẹ̀ ní a dí lọ́nà. Nítorí rẹ̀ mo fi ìwúwo ọkàn wọ Lebanoni ní aṣọ, gbogbo igi igbó gbẹ dànù. (Sheol h7585)

Thus saith the Lord GOD: In the day when he went down to hell I caused a mourning: I covered the deep for him, and I restrained the rivers thereof, and the great waters were stayed: and I caused Lebanon to mourn for him, and all the trees of the field fainted for him. (Sheol h7585)

16 Mo mú kí orílẹ̀-èdè wárìrì sì ìró ìṣubú rẹ̀ nígbà tí mo mú un wá sí ìsàlẹ̀ isà òkú pẹ̀lú àwọn tí ó lọ sí ọ̀gbun ìsàlẹ̀. Nígbà náà gbogbo igi Edeni, àṣàyàn àti èyí tí ó dára jùlọ nínú Lebanoni, gbogbo igi tí ó ní omi dáradára ni a tù nínú ni ayé ìsàlẹ̀. (Sheol h7585)

I made the nations to shake at the sound of his fall, when I cast him down to hell with them that descend into the pit: and all the trees of Eden, the choice and best of Lebanon, all that drink water, were comforted in the nether parts of the earth. (Sheol h7585)

17 Àwọn tí ó ń gbé ní abẹ́ òjìji rẹ̀, àwọn àjèjì rẹ ní àárín àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè náà, ti lọ sí ìsàlẹ̀ isà òkú pẹ̀lú rẹ̀, ní dídárapọ̀ mọ́ àwọn tí a fi idà pa. (Sheol h7585)

They also went down into hell with him unto them that be slain by the sword; yea, they that were his arm, [that] dwelt under his shadow in the midst of the nations. (Sheol h7585)

18 “‘Èwo lára igi Edeni ní a lè fiwé ọ ní dídán àti ọláńlá? Síbẹ̀ ìwọ, gan an wá sílẹ̀ pẹ̀lú àwọn igi Edeni lọ sí ìsàlẹ̀ ilẹ̀; ìwọ yóò sùn ni àárín àwọn aláìkọlà, pẹ̀lú àwọn tí a fi idà pa. “‘Èyí yìí ní Farao àti ìjọ rẹ̀, ní Olúwa Olódùmarè wí.’”

To whom art thou thus like in glory and in greatness among the trees of Eden? yet shalt thou be brought down with the trees of Eden unto the nether parts of the earth: thou shalt lie in the midst of the uncircumcised, with them that be slain by the sword. This is Pharaoh and all his multitude, saith the Lord GOD.
