¹And it came to pass in the twelfth year, in the twelfth month, on the first of the month, that the word of Jehovah came unto me, saying,

¹ Jiiri way cindi hinkanta ra, a handu way cindi hinkanta zaari sintina, kala Rabbi sanno kaa ay do ka ne:

²Son of man, take up a lamentation for Pharaoh king of Egypt, and say unto him, Thou wast like a young lion among the nations, and thou wast as a monster in the seas; and thou didst break forth in thy rivers, and troubledst the waters with thy feet, and fouledst their rivers.

² Boro izo, ma bu baray te Misira bonkoono Firawna boŋ, ka ne a se: I na ni deedandi nda muusu beeri ize ndunnya dumey ra, Da ham beeri kaŋ go teekoy ra mo. Ni ga bagu ka fatta ni isey ra, Ni ga harey butugu nda ni cey, Ni g'i isey ziibandi mo.

³Thus saith the Lord Jehovah: I will also spread out my net over thee with an assemblage of many peoples; and they shall bring thee up in my net.

³ Yaa no Rabbi, Koy Beero ci: Ay g'ay taaro salle ka ni daabu nd'a, Ndunnya dumey ra jama boobo care banda, I ga ni candi mo ka kande ay taaro ra.

⁴And I will leave thee upon the land, I will cast thee forth upon the open field, and will cause all the fowl of the heavens to settle upon thee, and I will fill the beasts of the whole earth with thee.

⁴ Ay ga fay da nin mo taray. Ya ni furu saajo batama ra, Ya naŋ beene curey kulu ma zumbu ni boŋ, Ya ndunnya hamey kulu kungandi nda nin mo.

⁵And I will lay thy flesh upon the mountains, and fill the valleys with the heap of thy [members];

⁵ Ay ma ni hamo daaru tondi kuukey boŋ, Ya goorey toonandi nda ni ham fumba.

⁶and I will water with thy blood the land wherein thou swimmest, even to the mountains; and the water-courses shall be full of thee.

⁶ Ay ga laabo tayandi, Nango kaŋ ni goono ga zi ni kuro ra, Kal a ma koy tondi kuukey gaa. Hari zuru fondey mo ga to nda nin.

⁷And when I shall put thee out, I will cover the heavens, and make the stars thereof black; I will cover the sun with a cloud, and the moon shall not give her light.

⁷ Waato kaŋ ay na ni danjo wi, ay ga beena daabu, Ya handariyayzey bare ka ciya kubay, Ya wayna daabu nda buru, Hando mo si nga kaaro no.

⁸All the bright lights of the heavens will I make black over thee, and bring darkness upon thy land, saith the Lord Jehovah.

⁸ Ay ga beene annurey kulu kaŋ ga nyaale bare ka ciya kubay ni boŋ, Ya naŋ ni laabo ma te kubay. Yaadin no Rabbi, Koy Beero ci.

⁹And I will vex the heart of many peoples, when I bring [the news of] thy destruction among the nations, into the countries that thou hast not known.

⁹ Ay ga ndunnya dumi boobo biney kankam, Waati kaŋ cine ay konda ni halaciyaŋo baaru ndunnya dumey game ra, Hala nda laabuyaŋ kaŋ ni mana bay baa ce fo.

¹⁰And I will make many peoples amazed at thee, and their kings shall be horribly afraid at thee, when I brandish my sword before them; and they shall tremble at every moment, each one for his life, in the day of thy fall.

¹⁰ Haciika, ay ga naŋ ndunnya dumi boobo ma joote ni sabbay se. I bonkooney mo ga humburu gumo ni sabbay se, Waati kaŋ cine i di ay go g'ay takuba feeni ngey jine. I ga soobay ka jijiri saaya kulu, Boro fo kulu gaahamo ga jijiri nga fundo sabbay se, Ni kaŋyaŋo hane.

¹¹For thus saith the Lord Jehovah: The sword of the king of Babylon shall come upon thee.

¹¹ Zama Babila bonkoono takuba ga kaŋ ni boŋ. Yaadin no Rabbi, Koy Beero ci.

¹²By the swords of the mighty will I cause thy multitude to fall: the terrible of the nations are they all: and they shall spoil the pride of Egypt, and all the multitude thereof shall be destroyed.

¹² Hinkoyey takubey no ay ga naŋ i ma ni jama zeeri nd'ey, I kulu ndunnya dumey koyyaŋ no kaŋ ga humburandi. I ga Misira boŋbeera hasara, a jama kulu mo ga halaci.

¹³And I will destroy all the beasts thereof, from beside the great waters; and the foot of man shall not trouble them any more, nor shall the cloven hoofs of beasts trouble them.

¹³ Ay g'a almaney kulu halaci mo, Wo kaŋ yaŋ goono ga goro hari boobey meyey gaa. Boro ce si no, alman ce kobsi mo si no kaŋ g'i butugu.

¹⁴Then will I make their waters clear, and cause their rivers to run like oil, saith the Lord Jehovah.

¹⁴ Waato din gaa no ay ga naŋ i harey ma te tisiyu. I isey ma zuru _nda albarka|_ sanda ji cine. Yaadin no Rabbi, Koy Beero ci.

¹⁵When I shall make the land of Egypt a desolation, and the country shall be left desolate of all that was in it, when I have smitten all them that dwell therein, then shall they know that I [am] Jehovah.

¹⁵ Waato kaŋ ay na Misira laabo ciya kurmu, Laabu kaŋ jaŋ hay kulu kaŋ a goro nd'a waato, Waato kaŋ ay na boro kulu kaŋ go ga goro a ra kar, Waati din no i ga bay kaŋ ay no ga ti Rabbi.

¹⁶It is a lamentation, and [thus] they shall lament her: the daughters of the nations shall say it in lamenting; they shall say it in lamenting over Egypt and over all her multitude, saith the Lord Jehovah.

¹⁶ Bu baray nooya kaŋ i g'a te dooni, yaadin no ndunnya dumey izey wayey ga bu baray te d'a. Misira, hala nd'a jama kulu se mo i ga bu bara din te. Yaadin no Rabbi, Koy Beero ci.

¹⁷And it came to pass in the twelfth year, on the fifteenth of the month, the word of Jehovah came unto me, saying,

¹⁷ I go no, jiiri way cindi hinkanta ra, hando jirbi way cindi guwanta hane no, Rabbi sanno ye ka kaa ay do koyne ka ne:

¹⁸Son of man, wail for the multitude of Egypt, and cast them down, her and the daughters of the famous nations, unto the lower parts of the earth, with them that go down into the pit.

¹⁸ Boro izo, ma baray Misira jama marga se. M'a zumandi, nga nda ndunnya dumi darzakoyey ize wayey, i ma koy Alaahara, ngey nda borey kaŋ ga zulli ka koy guuso ra care banda.

¹⁹Whom dost thou surpass in beauty? Go down, and be thou laid with the uncircumcised.

¹⁹ May no ni boori nd'a? Soobay ka zulli! Ni ga kani borey kaŋ sinda dambanguyaŋ banda.

²⁰They shall fall in the midst of them that are slain by the sword. The sword hath been given: draw her out, and all her multitudes.

²⁰ Borey kaŋ i ga wi da takuba din ra no i ga kaŋ. I na takuba waadu a se, i m'a ku mo, nga nda nga jama marga.

²¹The strong among the mighty, with them that helped him, shall speak to him out of the midst of Sheol: they are gone down, they lie still, the uncircumcised, slain by the sword.

²¹ Hinkoyey ra gaabikooney ga Misira nda nga amaana borey sanni te kaŋ ga fun Alaahara bindo ra. I ga ne: «I kaŋ! I kani siw! ngey kaŋ yaŋ sinda dambanguyaŋ, kaŋ yaŋ takuba wi din.»

²²There is Asshur and all his assemblage, his graves round about him: all of them slain, fallen by the sword;

²² Assiriya go noodin, nga nda nga jama kulu, a saarayey n'a windi. Borey kaŋ bu kulu, takuba no k'i zeeri.

²³their graves are set in the sides of the pit, and his assemblage is round about his grave; all of them slain, fallen by the sword, -- who caused terror in the land of the living.

²³ I saarayey go hala guuso daba bananta. A jama mo go g'a saara windi, ngey kaŋ bu kulu, takuba no k'i zeeri, ngey kaŋ na borey humburandi fundikooney laabo ra nooya.

²⁴There is Elam and all her multitude round about her grave, all of them slain, fallen by the sword, who are gone down uncircumcised unto the lower parts of the earth, who caused their terror in the land of the living; yet have they borne their confusion with them that go down to the pit.

²⁴ Elam go noodin, nga nda nga jama kulu, i go g'a saara windi. Borey kaŋ bu kulu, takuba no k'i zeeri. I koy Alaahara dambanguyaŋ si, ngey kaŋ ga humburandi waato fundikooney laabo ra. I haawo go i gaa ga jare ga koy, ngey nda guuso ra zulliko cindey care banda.

²⁵They have set him a bed in the midst of the slain, with all his multitude: their graves are round about him, all of them uncircumcised, slain by the sword, though their terror was caused in the land of the living; and they have borne their confusion with them that go down to the pit: he is put in the midst of them that are slain.

²⁵ I na daari daaru a se borey kaŋ i wi din game ra, nga nda nga jama kulu. I saarayey go a windanta, i kulu sinda dambanguyaŋ, borey kaŋ takuba zeeri nooya, (baa kaŋ i ciya humburkumay hari yaŋ fundikooney laabo ra). I na ngey haawo jare, ngey nda borey kaŋ ga zulli ka koy guuso ra care banda. I n'i daŋ borey kaŋ i wi din game ra.

²⁶There is Meshech, Tubal, and all their multitude, their graves round about them, all of them uncircumcised, slain by the sword, though they caused their terror in the land of the living.

²⁶ Mesek da Tubal da ngey jama marga kulu go noodin, i saarayey go g'i windi. I toonando kulu kaŋ sinda dambanguyaŋ no. Takuba n'i zeeri, baa kaŋ i ciya humburkumay hariyaŋ fundikooney laabo ra.

²⁷And they lie not with the mighty, [that are] fallen of the uncircumcised, who are gone down to Sheol with their weapons of war; and whose swords are laid under their heads, and whose iniquities are upon their bones, though they were the terror of the mighty in the land of the living.

²⁷ I si kani doŋ hinkoyey banda, borey kaŋ sinda dambanguyaŋ din do haray, ngey kaŋ zulli ka koy Alaahara nda ngey wongu jinayey care banda. I na ngey takubey jisi ngey boŋ cire, amma i laala alhakko go i biriyey boŋ, baa kaŋ yaarukomey din ciya humburkumay hariyaŋ fundikooney laabo ra.

²⁸Thou also shalt be broken in the midst of the uncircumcised, and shalt lie with them that are slain with the sword.

²⁸ Amma nin wo, Firawna, i ga ni ceeri no borey kaŋ sinda dambanguyaŋ bindi ra. Ni ga kani borey kaŋ takuba zeeri din banda.

²⁹There is Edom, her kings, and all her princes, who in their might are laid with them that are slain by the sword: they lie with the uncircumcised, and with them that go down to the pit.

²⁹ Edom mo go noodin, a koyey d'a mayraykoyey kulu, da ngey hin kulu. I n'i jisi no borey kaŋ takuba zeeri din banda. I ga kani, ngey nda borey kaŋ sinda dambanguyaŋ care banda, da ngey mo kaŋ ga zulli ka koy guuso ra.

³⁰There are the princes of the north, all of them, and all the Zidonians, that are gone down with the slain -- ashamed of the terror which they caused through their might; and they lie uncircumcised with them that are slain by the sword, and bear their confusion with them that go down to the pit.

³⁰ Azawa kambe haray koyey kulu mo go noodin, da Zidonancey kulu, kaŋ yaŋ zulli haawi ra borey kaŋ i wi din banda, hala nda ngey humburandiyaŋo kaŋ i cabe ngey hino do. Borey kaŋ sinda dambanguyaŋ no, i go ga kani, ngey da ngey kaŋ takuba zeeri care banda. I haawo go i se ga jare, ngey nda borey kaŋ ga zulli ka koy guuso ra care banda.

³¹Pharaoh shall see them, and shall be comforted over all his multitude, Pharaoh and all his army slain by the sword, saith the Lord Jehovah.

³¹ Firawna ga di ey. A ga du yaamaryaŋ nga jama kulu kaŋ takuba zeeri din sabbay se -- Firawna nda nga marga kulu nooya. Yaadin no Rabbi, Koy Beero ci.

³²For I have caused my terror in the land of the living; and he shall be laid in the midst of the uncircumcised, with them that are slain by the sword, Pharaoh and all his multitude, saith the Lord Jehovah.

³² Zama baa kaŋ ay n'a ciya humburkumay hari fundikooney laabo ra, kulu nda yaadin ay g'a kanandi borey kaŋ sinda dambanguyaŋ bindo ra, nga nda ngey kaŋ takuba zeeri din care banda, sanda Firawna nda nga jama kulu nooya. Yaadin no Rabbi, Koy Beero ci.
