Ezekieri 28

¹Zvino shoko raJehovha rakasvikazve kwandiri, richiti,The word of the LORD came again unto me, saying,

²Mwanakomana womunhu, iti kumuchinda weTire, zvanzi nalshe Jehovha, `moyo wako zvawakazvikudza,' iwe ukati, `Ini ndiri mwari, ndigere pachigaro chaMwari pakati pamakungwa,' kunyange zvakadaro, uri munhu hako, hauzi Mwari, kunyange wakamisa moyo wako somoyo waMwari;Son of man, say unto the prince of Tyrus, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Because thine heart is lifted up, and thou hast said, I am a God, I sit in the seat of God, in the midst of the seas; yet thou art a man, and not God, though thou set thine heart as the heart of God:

³tarira, unokunda Dhanyeri pakuchenjera kwako, hakuna chakavanzika chausingazivi iwe;Behold, thou art wiser than Daniel; there is no secret that they can hide from thee:

⁴wakazviwanira fuma nohuchenjeri hwako uye nokuziva kwako, ukazviwanira ndarama nesirivha muzvivigiro zvefuma yako;With thy wisdom and with thine understanding thou hast gotten thee riches, and hast gotten gold and silver into thy treasures:

⁵wakawedzera fuma yako nohuchenjeri hwako hukuru uye nokushambadzira kwako, moyo wako ukazvikudza nokuda kwefuma yako;By thy great wisdom and by thy traffick hast thou increased thy riches, and thine heart is lifted up because of thy riches:

⁶naizvozvo zvanzi naIshe Jehovha, `Zvawakamisa moyo wako somoyo waMwari,'Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Because thou hast set thine heart as the heart of God;

⁷naizvozvo tarira, ndinouyisa vatorwa pamusoro pako, ivo vanotyisa pakati pamarudzi ose; vachavhomorera kunaka kwohuchenjeri hwako minondo yavo, vachasvibisa kubwinya kwako.Behold, therefore I will bring strangers upon thee, the terrible of the nations: and they shall draw their swords against the beauty of thy wisdom, and they shall defile thy brightness.

⁸Vachakuburusira kugomba; uchafa norufu rwavanourawa mumoyo wamakungwa.They shall bring thee down to the pit, and thou shalt die the deaths of them that are slain in the midst of the seas.

⁹Ko ungazoreva pamberi pounokuuraya, uchiti, `Ndini Mwari?' Asi uri munhu, hauzi Mwari, muruoko rwaiye unokukuvadza.Wilt thou yet say before him that slayeth thee, I am God? but thou shalt be a man, and no God, in the hand of him that slayeth thee.

¹⁰Uchafa norufu rwousina kudzingiswa namaoko avatorwa, nokuti ndini ndakataura izvozvo, ndizvo zvinotaura Ishe Jehovha.Thou shalt die the deaths of the uncircumcised by the hand of strangers: for I have spoken it, saith the Lord GOD.

¹¹Zvino shoko raJehovha rakasvikazve kwandiri, richiti,Moreover the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,

¹²Mwanakomana womunhu, itira mambo weTire mariro, uti kwaari, zvanzi nalshe Jehovha, `Iwe wokuisa chisimbiso chako pachiyero, uzere nohuchenjeri, hwakakwana pakunaka.'Son of man, take up a lamentation upon the king of Tyrus, and say unto him, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Thou sealest up the sum, full of wisdom, and perfect in beauty.

¹³Wakanga uri paEdheni, mumunda waMwari; wakanga wakafukidzwa namabwe anokosha amarudzi ose, anoti, saridhio netopasi nedhaimani neberiri, neonikisi nejasipiri nesafiri nesimaragidhino nekaribhunikuri; ngoma dzako nenyere dzako dzakanga dzakaitwa nendarama mukati mako, zvakagadzirwa nezuva rokusikwa kwako.Thou hast been in Eden the garden of God; every precious stone was thy covering, the sardius, topaz, and the diamond, the beryl, the onyx, and the jasper, the sapphire, the emerald, and the carbuncle, and gold: the workmanship of thy tabrets and of thy pipes was prepared in thee in the day that thou wast created.

¹⁴Iwe wakanga uri kerubhi rakazodzwa, raifukidzira areka, ndikakugadza ukava pamusoro pegomo dzvene raMwari; waifamba-famba pakati pamabwe omoto.Thou art the anointed cherub that covereth; and I have set thee so: thou wast upon the holy mountain of God; thou hast walked up and down in the midst of the stones of fire.

¹⁵Wakanga wakakwana panzira dzako kubva pazuva rokusikwa kwako, kusvikira kusarurama kwakawanikwa mukati mako.Thou wast perfect in thy ways from the day that thou wast created, till iniquity was found in thee.

¹⁶Nokuwanda kwokushambadzira kwako vakazadza mukati mako nokuita nesimba, ukatadza; naizvozvo ndakakudzinga pagomo raMwari ndichiti uri chinhu chinomhurwa, ndikakuparadza, iwe kerubhi raifukidzira areka, ndikakubvisa pakati pamabwe omoto.By the multitude of thy merchandise they have filled the midst of thee with violence, and thou hast sinned: therefore I will cast thee as profane out of the mountain of God: and I will destroy thee, O covering cherub, from the midst of the stones of fire.

¹⁷moyo wako wakazvikudza nokuda kwokunaka kwako; wakaodza huchenjeri hwako nokuda kwokubwinya kwako; ndakakuwisira pasi, ndakakuisa pamberi pamadzimambo kuti vakuone.Thine heart was lifted up because of thy beauty, thou hast corrupted thy wisdom by reason of thy brightness: I will cast thee to the ground, I will lay thee before kings, that they may behold thee.

¹⁸Nokuwanda kwezvakaipa zvako, nokusarurama kwokushambadzira kwako, wakamhura nzvimbo dzako tsvene; naizvozvo ndakabudisa moto mukati mako; wakakupedza, ndikakushandura ukava madota panyika pamberi pavose vanokuona.Thou hast defiled thy sanctuaries by the multitude of thine iniquities, by the iniquity of thy traffick; therefore will I bring forth a fire from the midst of thee, it shall devour thee, and I will bring thee to ashes upon the earth in the sight of all them that behold thee.

¹⁹Vose, vanokuziva pakati pamarudzi avanhu, vachashamiswa pamusoro pako; wava chinhu chinotyisa, haungazovi chinhu nokusingaperi.All they that know thee among the people shall be astonished at thee: thou shalt be a terror, and never shalt thou be any more.

²⁰Zvino shoko raJehovha rakasvikazve kwandiri richiti,Again the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,

²¹Mwanakomana womunhu, rinzira chiso chako kurutivi rweSidhoni, uporofite pamusoro paro,Son of man, set thy face against Zidon, and prophesy against it,

²²uti, zvanzi nashe Jehovha, `Tarira, ndine mhaka newe, iwe Sidhoni; ndichakudzwa mukati mako; vanhu vachaziva kuti ndini Jehovha, nenguva yandinoita mukati maro izvo zvandakatonga, ndichiitwa mutsvene mukati maro.'And say, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I am against thee, O Zidon; and I will be glorified in the midst of thee: and they shall know that I am the LORD, when I shall have executed judgments in her, and shall be sanctified in her.

²³Nokuti ndichatuma hosha yakaipa mukati maro, neropa munzira dzaro; vakakuvadzwa vachawira pasi mukati maro, kana munondo uchiuya pamusoro paro kumativi ose; zvino vachaziva kuti ndini Jehovha.For I will send into her pestilence, and blood into her street; and the wounded shall be judged in the midst of her by the sword upon her on every side; and they shall know that I am the LORD.

²⁴Hapachazovi norukato runobaya imba yaIsiraeri, kana munzwa unokuvadza pakati pavaivakomberedza, vaivashoora; zvino vachaziva kuti ndini Ishe Jehovha.And there shall be no more a pricking brier unto the house of Israel, nor any grieving thorn of all that are round about them, that despised them; and they shall know that I am the Lord GOD.

²⁵Zvanzi naIshe Jehovha, Nenguva yandinenge ndaunganidza imba yaIsiraeri kumarudzi avanhu kwavakanga vakaparadzirwa, ndikaitwa mutsvene pakati pamberi pamarudzi, nenguva iyo vachagara munyika yavo yandakapa muranda wangu Jakobho.Thus saith the Lord GOD; When I shall have gathered the house of Israel from the people among whom they are scattered, and shall be sanctified in them in the sight of the heathen, then shall they dwell in their land that I have given to my servant Jacob.

²⁶Vachagaramo vakachengetwa; zvirokwazvo, vachavaka dzimba, nokusima minda yemizambiringa, vachagara vakachengetwa, kana ndaita zvandakatonga pamusoro pavose vakavapoteredza vanovashora; zvino vachaziva kuti ndini Jehovha Mwari wavo.And they shall dwell safely therein, and shall build houses, and plant vineyards; yea, they shall dwell with confidence, when I have executed judgments upon all those that despise them round about them; and they shall know that I am the LORD their God.
