1 Hina Gode da nama amane sia: i,
And the word of Yahweh came unto me saying:
2 “Dunu da Isala: ili soge amo ganodini, amo malasu gebewane sia: nana, amane, ‘Edala emela da gamogai waini efe fage mai, be ilia mano fawane da naba: loba gamogai nabi.’”
What occasion have ye, to be using this proverb, concerning the soil of Israel, saying, —Fathers eat sour grapes, And the children’s teeth are blunted?
3 Ouligisudafa Hina Gode da amane sia: sa, “Na da Fifi Ahoanusu Gode, amola Na da amane sia: sa, ‘Amo malasu, dilia Isala: ili soge ganodini hamedafa bu sia: mu.’
As I live, Declareth My Lord, Yahweh, Surely ye shall have occasion no longer to use this proverb, in Israel.
4 Na fawane da dunu huluane ilia esalusu, edala, emela amola mano, Na fawane ouligisa. Nowa dunu da wadela: le hamosea, hisu fawane da bogosu ba: mu.
Lo! as for all persons, mine they are, As the person of the father, so also the person of the son, mine they are, —The person that sinneth, the same shall die.
5 Moloidafa ida: iwane dunu ea hou ba: ma.
But when, any man, shall be righteous, and do justice and righteousness:
6 E da Isala: ili ilia loboga hamoi ‘gode’ ilima nodone hame sia: ne gadosa. E da gobele salasu amo sema oloda amoma i, hame naha. E da inia uda hame wamolasa, amola uda da sioi fisia, ema gilisili hame golasa.
Upon the mountains, hath not eaten, And his eyes, hath not lifted up unto the manufactured gods of the house of Israel, And the wife of his neighbour, hath not defiled, And unto a woman during her removal, hath not approached;
7 E da enoma hame ogogosa, amola inia liligi hame wamolasa. Dunu da ema muni bu ima: ne labeba: le, ema liligi iasea, e da amo liligi hame gagulaligisa. E da ha: i dunuma, ha: i manu iaha, amola da: i nabado dunuma abula iaha.
And no man, hath treated with violence, But his debt-pledge, hath restored. Plunder, hath not seized, — His bread—to the famished, hath given, And the naked, hath covered with clothing;
8 E da dabe eno baligili lama: ne, muni hame iaha. Dunu eno da ea wadela: le hamomusa: sia: sea, e da hame hamomu sia: sa. Fofada: su ganodini, e da molole adole iaha.
Upon interest, hath not put out his money. And increase, hath not accepted, From dishonesty, hath turned back his hand, — Justice in truth, hath done, between man and man;
9 Amaiwane dunu da malei sia: , amola Na sema noga: le nabawane hamosa. Ea hou da moloiba: le, e da esalumu,” Ouligisu Hina Gode da amane sia: i.
In my statutes, hath walked. And my regulations, hath observed to do them in truth, Righteous, he is, He shall surely live, Declareth My Lord. Yahweh.
10 Be amo dunu da mano galea, amo da wamolasu amola medole legesu, amola wadela: i hou ea ada hame hamoi liligi hamosa,
But he hath begotten a son Who is a violent man A shedder of blood, - Who doeth the like of any of these things;
11 amola e da gobele salasu amo sema oloda sogebi amoma i naha, amola inia uda adole laha,
Whereas he, none of those other things, doeth, For indeed upon the mountains, he hath eaten, And the wife of his neighbour, hath defiled;
12 amola hame gagui dunuma ogogosa, amola liligi wamolasa, amola bu ima: ne i liligi wamolasa. E da Gode higa: i dunu ilia loboga hamoi ogogosu ‘gode’ ilia sogebi ahoasea, amo liligima nodone sia: ne gadosa.
The oppressed and the needy, hath treated with violence, Hath ruthlessly plundered, The pledge, hath not restored, But unto the manufactured gods, hath lifted up his eyes, Abomination, hath wrought;
13 E da muni eno baligili lamusa: eno dunuma iaha. Amo mano da esaloma: bela: ? Hamefa! E da amo wadela: i hou hamobeba: le, bogomu. E da hi baiga bogomu.
Upon interest, hath put out. And increase, hath accepted—, And shall he live? He shall not live All these abominations, he hath done, He shall surely be put to death, His blood, upon himself, shall be.
14 Defea! Eno dunu afae ea hou dawa: ma! Amo wadela: i dunu egefe da eada ea wadela: i hou ba: beba: le, amo higasea ema hame fa: no bobogesa.
But lo! he hath begotten a son, Who hath considered all the sins of his father which he hath done, - Yea he hath considered and not done like them:
15 E da Isala: ili ilia loboga hamoi ‘gode’ ilima nodone hame sia: ne gadosa. E da gobele salasu amo sema oloda amoma i, hame naha. E da inia uda hame wamolasa, amola uda da sioi fisia, ema gilisili hame golasa. E da enoma hame ogogosa, amola inia liligi hame wamolasa. Dunu da ema muni bu ima: ne labeba: le, ema liligi iasea, e da amo liligi hame gagulaligisa. E da ha: i dunuma ha: i manu iaha, amola da: i nabado dunuma abula iaha. E da baligili eno lama: ne, muni hame iaha. Dunu eno da ea wadela: le hamomusa: sia: sea, e da hame hamomu sia: sa. Fofada: su ganodini, e da molole adole iaha. Amaiwane dunu da malei sia: amola Na sema noga: le nabawane hamosa. E da ea eda ea wadela: i hou hamoiba: le hame bogomu. E da dafawane fifi ahoanumu.
Upon the mountains, hath not eaten, And his eyes, hath not lifted up unto the manufactured gods of the house of Israel, The wife of his neighbour, hath not defiled;
And no man, hath he treated with violence, Hath by no means withholden the pledge, And plunder, hath not seized, — His bread—to the famished, hath given And the naked, hath covered with clothing;
From dishonesty, hath turned back his hand Neither interest nor increase, hath accepted, my regulations, hath executed, In my statutes, hath walked, — He shall not die for the iniquity of his father He shall surely live.
18 Be ea eda da ogogoi, amola wamolai, amola eno dunuma wadela: le hamosu. Amaiba: le, e da hi wadela: i hou hamobeba: le, bogoi dagoi.
His father Because he exacted unjust gain Seized plunder of a brother, And that which was not good, had done in the midst of his people Therefore lo! he died, in his iniquity.
19 Be dilia da amane adole ba: sa, ‘Egefe da eada wadela: i hou hamobeba: le, abuliba: le se iasu hame labala?’ Bai egefe da moloidafa hou hamoiba: le, se bidi iasu hame lai, amola e da esalumu.
Will ye then say. Why hath not the son borne a part of the iniquity of the father? But the son hath done justice and righteousness, All my statutes, hath observed and done them He shall surely live.
20 Wadela: i hou hamobe dunu amo fawane da bogomu. Egefe da eda ea wadela: le hamobeba: le, se hame nabimu. Amola eda da egefe wadela: le hamobeba: le, se nabimu da hamedei. Dunu noga: i da noga: i hou hamosea, hahawane bidi lamu amola wadela: i dunu da wadela: le hamosea, e da se bidi iasu ba: mu.
The person that sinneth, the same, shall die, — A, son, shall not bear a part of the iniquity of, the father Neither shall, a father, bear a part of the iniquity of the son, the righteousness of the righteous, upon himself, shall be. And, the lawlessness of a lawless man, upon himself, shall be.
21 Wadela: i dunu da wadela: i hou yolesili, Na malei nabawane hamosea, amola hou moloiwane hamosea, bogosu mae ba: le, esalumu.
But as for the lawless man— When he shall turn back from all his sins which he hath committed, And observe all my statutes, And do justice and righteousness He shall surely live. He shall not die:
22 Na da ea wadela: i hou huluane gogolema: ne olofomu. Amasea, e da esalumu. Bai e da moloiwane hamoiba: le.
None of his transgressions which he hath committed shall be remembered against him, —In his righteousness which he hath done, he shall live.
23 Dia dawa: loba da wadela: i hamosu dunu bogosea, Na da hahawane ba: sala: ? Hamefa! Be e da sinidigili, esaloma: ne, Na da hanai, “Ouligisu Hina Gode da amane sia: sa.
Could I take delight, in the death of the lawless? Demandeth My Lord. Yahweh. Must it not be in his turning from his ways in which case he shall live?
24 Be moloidafa dunu da moloi hou fisili, wadela: i dunu ilia wadela: idafa hou defele hamosea, e da esaloma: bela: ? Hamefa! Na da ea musa: moloi hou hamoi amo bu hame dawa: mu. E da didili hame hamobeba: le amola wadela: le hamobeba: le, bogosu ba: mu.
But, when a righteous man, shall turn away, from his righteousness and do that which is perverse, Shall do, according to all the abominations which the lawless man hath done, Shall he live? None of his righteous acts which he hath done, shall be remembered, In his treachery wherein he hath been treacherous, And in his sin wherein he hath sinned, In them, shall he die.
25 Be dilia da amane sia: sa, ‘Hina Gode Ea hou da moloi hame.’ Isala: ili dunu dilia! Na sia: nabima! Dilia dawa: loba, Na hamobe da moloi hamela: ? Hame mabu! Dilia hou fawane da moloi hame!
Can ye then say— The way of My Lord will not be equal? Hear I pray you O house of Israel, Will my way, not be equal? Will not your ways be unequal?
26 Moloidafa dunu da moloi hou fisili, wadela: i hou hamonanea, e da ea wadela: i hou hamobeba: le bogomu.
When a righteous man shall turn away from his righteousness and do that which is perverse and die because of those things In his own perversity which he hath done, shall he die.
27 Be wadela: i hamosu dunu da wadela: i hou fisili, bu moloi hou hamonanea, e da ea esalusu gaga: i dagoi ba: mu.
But when a lawless man turneth away from his lawlessness which he hath done, And hath done justice and righteousness He, shall save his own soul, alive:
28 E da wadela: i hou hamonana, amo hi dawa: digibiba: le, yolesisa. Amaiba: le, e da mae bogole esalumu.
When he considered, then he turned away from all his transgressions which he had committed, He shall surely live. He shall not die.
29 Be dilia Isala: ili dunu da ‘Hina Gode Ea hou da moloi hame’ sia: sa. Dilia dawa: loba da Na hou da moloi hame dawa: bela: ? Be dilia hou fawane da moloi hame.
Can the house of Israel then say- The way of My Lord will not be equal? Will my ways, not be equal O house of Israel? Will not your ways be unequal?
30 Wali, Na, Ouligisudafa Hina Gode da dilia Isala: ili dunuma amane sia: sa, ‘Na da dilia afae afae dilia hamoi defele dilima fofada: mu. Dilia wadela: i hou fisima! Dilia wadela: i hou amoga dilila: mae wadela: lesima: ma.
Therefore, Every man according to his own ways, will I judge you O house of Israel, Declareth My Lord Yahweh, Return ye—and make good your return—from all your transgressions, That they become not unto you a stumbling block of iniquity.
31 Dilia wadela: i hou hamonanea yolesima. Asigi dawa: su gaheabolo amola dogo gaheabolo lama. Dilia Isala: ili dunu abuliba: le bogomusa: hanabela: ?”
Cast off from you all your transgressions which ye have committed against me, And make you a new heart; And a new spirit, - For why should ye die, O house of Israel?
32 Ouligisudafa Hina Gode da amane sia: sa, “Na da diliga afae bogomu higa: i hodosa. Dilia wadela: i hou yolesili, fifi ahoanusu lama!”
For I cannot take delight in the death of him that dieth, Declareth My Lord Yahweh, Make good your return then and, live!
