1The word of Yahweh came to me, saying,
1 Rabbi sanno ye ka kaa ay do koyne ka ne:
2Son of man, set your face toward Jerusalem, and drop your word toward the sanctuaries, and prophesy against the land of Israel;
2 Boro izo, ma ni moyduma ye dandi kambe haray, ka ni sanno salaŋ ka gaaba nda dandi kambe haray. Ma annabitaray te dandi kambe saajo tuuri lunku-lunko boŋ.
3and tell the land of Israel, Thus says Yahweh: Behold, I am against you, and will draw forth my sword out of its sheath, and will cut off from you the righteous and the wicked.
3 Ma ne dandi kambe tuuri lunku-lunko se: Ma maa Rabbi sanno. Ya-cine no Rabbi, Koy Beero ci: A go, ay ga ba ka danji tusu ni gaa, danji kaŋ ga ni tuuri taya da ni tuuri koga kulu ŋwa ka ban. Danji beela korna din si bu bo. Laabo batama kulu, za dandi kamba kala a ma koy azawa kambe, i kulu ga kukure danjo ra.
4Seeing then that I will cut off from you the righteous and the wicked, therefore shall my sword go forth out of its sheath against all flesh from the south to the north:
4 Fundikooney kulu ga di kaŋ ay, Rabbi, ay no ka danjo din tusu, a si bu mo.
5and all flesh shall know that I, Yahweh, have drawn forth my sword out of its sheath; it shall not return any more.
5 Kal ay ne: «Kaari, ya Rabbi, Koy Beero! I go ga ne ay se, misa sanni day no ay go ga te.»
6Sigh therefore, you son of man; with the breaking of your thighs and with bitterness you will sigh before their eyes.
6 Rabbi sanno kaa ay do ka ne:
7It shall be, when they tell you, Why do you sigh? that you shall say, Because of the news, for it comes; and every heart shall melt, and all hands shall be feeble, and every spirit shall faint, and all knees shall be weak as water: behold, it comes, and it shall be done, says the Lord Yahweh.
7 Boro izo, ni moyduma ye Urusalima haray. Ma salaŋ ka gaaba nda nangu hanantey. Ma annabitaray te ka gaaba nda Israyla laabo,
8The word of Yahweh came to me, saying,
8 ka ne Israyla laabo se: Yaa no Rabbi ci: A go, ay ga gaaba nda nin. Ay g'ay takuba foobu ka kaa nga nyaŋo ra, ya adilantey da ilaaley kulu pati ka kaa ni ra.
9Son of man, prophesy, and say, Thus says Yahweh: Say, A sword, a sword, it is sharpened, and also furbished;
9 A binde, za kaŋ ay ga adilantey da ilaaley kulu pati ka kaa ni ra, ay takuba ga fatta ka gaaba nda fundikooney kulu, za dandi kambe kal a ma koy azawa kambe.
10it is sharpened that it may make a slaughter; it is furbished that it may be as lightning: shall we then make mirth? the rod of my son, it condemns every tree.
10 Fundikooney kulu ga bay kaŋ ay, Rabbi, ay n'ay takuba foobu ka kaa nga nyaŋo ra, a si ye ka furo mo koyne.
11It is given to be furbished, that it may be handled: the sword, it is sharpened, yes, it is furbished, to give it into the hand of the killer.
11 Ni binde, ya nin boro izo, ma duray da bine saray. Bine saray konno no ni ga duray d'a i jine.
12Cry and wail, son of man; for it is on my people, it is on all the princes of Israel: they are delivered over to the sword with my people; strike therefore on your thigh.
12 D'i ga ne ni se: «Ifo se no ni go ga duray?» kala ni ma ne: «Baaro kaŋ goono ga kaa sabbay se no. Boro kulu bine ga jaŋ gaabi, boro kulu kambe londi ga bu, boro kulu biya ga kasam, boro kulu kange londi ga bu mo sanda hari cine. A go, masiiba go kaa, haya tabbat mo. Yaadin no Rabbi, Koy Beero ci.»
13For there is a trial; and what if even the rod that condemns shall be no more? says the Lord Yahweh.
13 Rabbi sanno kaa ay do koyne ka ne:
14You therefore, son of man, prophesy, and strike your hands together; and let the sword be doubled the third time, the sword of the deadly wounded: it is the sword of the great one who is deadly wounded, which enters into their rooms.
14 Boro izo, ma annabitaray te ka ne: Yaa no Rabbi ci: Ni ma ne: Takuba! He, takuba! I n'a kaanandi, i n'a ziiri mo.
15I have set the threatening sword against all their gates, that their heart may melt, and their stumblings be multiplied: ah! it is made as lightning, it is pointed for slaughter.
15 I n'a kaanandi zama a ma wi se, I n'a ziiri zama a ma ciya sanda maliyaŋ. Iri mo, iri ma soobay ka haaru, wala? Ay izo goobo ga donda tuuri kulu no, wala?
16Gather yourselves together, go to the right, set yourselves in array, go to the left, wherever your face is set.
16 I na takuba nooyandi i m'a ziiri se, Zama i ma goy te d'a! I n'a kaanandi, oho, i n'a ziiri, Zama i m'a daŋ wiiko kambe ra.
17I will also strike my hands together, and I will cause my wrath to rest: I, Yahweh, have spoken it.
17 Ya nin boro izo, ma hẽ, ma baray! Zama i na takuba candi ka gaaba nd'ay borey, Israyla mayraykoyey kulu boŋ no a go. Ngey nd'ay borey, ay n'i nooyandi takuba se, Ni binde ma ni kambey koli.
18The word of Yahweh came to me again, saying,
18 Zama siyaŋ go kaa, kala ifo koyne da ni donda goobo? Yaadin no Rabbi, Koy Beero ci.
19Also, you son of man, appoint two ways, that the sword of the king of Babylon may come; they both shall come forth out of one land: and mark out a place, mark it out at the head of the way to the city.
19 Ni binde, boro izo, kala ni ma annabitaray te. Ma ni kambey koli gande _ka ne|_: I ma beeri nda takuba ce hinka wala ce hinza, Takuba kaŋ ga boro wi nooya. Wiyaŋ boobo takuba no, kaŋ g'i windi kuray kulu.
20You shall appoint a way for the sword to come to Rabbah of the children of Ammon, and to Judah in Jerusalem the fortified.
20 Ay na takuba kaŋ ga kaa i gaa daŋ i kulu birni meyey gaa, Zama i biney ma pati, i boro boobo mo ma kati ka kaŋ. Kaari! Sanda maliyaŋ cine no i na takuba te, I n'a foobu wiyaŋ se.
21For the king of Babylon stood at the parting of the way, at the head of the two ways, to use divination: he shook the arrows back and forth, he consulted the teraphim, he looked in the liver.
21 Sohõ kala ni ma soola ka koy kambe ŋwaari haray. Te soola ka koy kambe wow haray, Nangu kulu kaŋ ni meyo miila.
22In his right hand was the divination for Jerusalem, to set battering rams, to open the mouth in the slaughter, to lift up the voice with shouting, to set battering rams against the gates, to cast up mounds, to build forts.
22 Ay mo, y'ay kambey kokobe, Ay futay korna mo ma yay. Ay, Rabbi no ka woodin ci.
23It shall be to them as a false divination in their sight, who have sworn oaths to them; but he brings iniquity to memory, that they may be taken.
23 Rabbi sanno kaa ay do ka ne:
24Therefore thus says the Lord Yahweh: Because you have made your iniquity to be remembered, in that your transgressions are uncovered, so that in all your doings your sins appear; because you have come to memory, you shall be taken with the hand.
24 Nin mo, boro izo, ma fondo hinka cabe, naŋ kaŋ Babila bonkoono takuba ga gana ka kaa, i boro hinka kulu mo ga fun laabu folloŋ ra. Ma fondo fayyaŋ seeda te, naŋ kaŋ fondey ga fay ka koy gallo do.
25You, deadly wounded wicked one, the prince of Israel, whose day has come, in the time of the iniquity of the end,
25 Kala ni ma takuba cabe fonda kaŋ a ga gana ka kaa Rabba, Amon izey wano do. Ma fondo fo mo cabe kaŋ ga kaa ka furo Yahuda ra. A ma furo Urusalima, kaŋ ga ti kwaara wongu-cinari-koyo.
26thus says the Lord Yahweh: Remove the turban, and take off the crown; this shall be no more the same; exalt that which is low, and abase that which is high.
26 Zama Babila bonkoono ga kay fondo fayey gaa, fonda hinka din boŋ, zama nga ma gunayaŋ te. A ga hangawey zinji, a ma saaware ceeci toorey do, a ma alman haame guna.
27I will overturn, overturn, overturn it: this also shall be no more, until he come whose right it is; and I will give it him.
27 A kambe ŋwaari ra mo gunayaŋ haro na Urusalima cabe. I ma wongu cinari baguyaŋ dubiyaŋ sinji. I ma wiyaŋ kuuwa te, i ma jinde sambu da wongu kuuwa, i ma wongu cinari baguyaŋ dubiyaŋ sinji gallo me daabirjey do haray, i ma laabu gusam, i ma wongu fuyaŋ cina mo.
28You, son of man, prophesy, and say, Thus says the Lord Yahweh concerning the children of Ammon, and concerning their reproach; and say, A sword, a sword is drawn, for the slaughter it is furbished, to cause it to devour, that it may be as lightning;
28 Ngey wo se, gunayaŋo din tangari no, ngey kaŋ yaŋ na zeyaŋ beeri te. Amma ay wo se, laala fonguyaŋ no, zama i m'i di.
29while they see for you false visions, while they divine lies to you, to lay you on the necks of the wicked who are deadly wounded, whose day has come in the time of the iniquity of the end.
29 Woodin se binde, yaa no Rabbi, Koy Beero ci: Araŋ naŋ i ma fongu araŋ laalayaŋey gaa, mate kaŋ cine araŋ taaley fisi ka fun taray d'a. Baa araŋ goyey kulu ra araŋ zunubey bangay taray kwaaray, za kaŋ i kande araŋ fonguyaŋo ya-cine, i g'araŋ di no da kambe.
30Cause it to return into its sheath. In the place where you were created, in the land of your birth, will I judge you.
30 Ni binde, Israyla mayraykoyo, nin boro laalo jaahilo, ni zaaro kaa, ciiti bananta zaaro nooya.
31I will pour out my indignation on you; I will blow on you with the fire of my wrath; and I will deliver you into the hand of brutish men, skillful to destroy.
31 I ma boŋtoba kaa, i ma koytaray fuula mo foobu ka kaa. Zama haya si ye ka ciya sanda waato cine koyne. I ma kaynante beerandi, i ma beeraykoy kaynandi. Yaadin no Rabbi, Koy Beero ci.
32You shall be for fuel to the fire; your blood shall be in the midst of the land; you shall be remembered no more: for I, Yahweh, have spoken it.
32 Ay g'a ciya kurmu, kurmu, kurmu! Haya mo si ye ka ciya sanda waato cine bo, kala waati kaŋ bora kaa, nga kaŋ ga hima nd'a. Ay mo, y'a no a se.
33 Ni mo, boro izo, kala ni ma annabitaray te ka ne: «Wa maa haŋ kaŋ Rabbi, Koy Beero ci Amon izey da wowo kaŋ i te din boŋ: Takuba! I na takuba foobu wiyaŋ se. I n'a ziiri a ma ŋwa ka ban se, A ma nyaale sanda maliyaŋ cine.
34 I goono ga di bangandi yaamo yaŋ araŋ se, I goono ga tangari gunayaŋ te araŋ se, Kaŋ ga ne takuba din ga ilaaley jindey beeri, Ngey kaŋ guuru wongu ra. I zaaro kaa, ciiti bananta alwaato wane.
35 Ma takuba ye nga nyaŋo ra. Ni takayaŋo do, laabo kaŋ i na ni hay din ra no, Ay ga ciiti te ni se.
36 Ay g'ay dukuro gusam ni boŋ. Ay g'ay futa danjo funsu ni boŋ. Ay ga ni daŋ boroyaŋ kaŋ biney ga koroŋ kambe ra, Borey kaŋ yaŋ ga goni halaciyaŋ goy gaa.
37 Ni ga ciya danji ŋwaari, Ni kuro go nangu kulu laabo ra. I si ye ka fongu ni gaa koyne, Zama ay, Rabbi no ka salaŋ.»
