Isigiele 18
1 Hina Gode da nama amane sia: i,
The LORD’s word came to me again, 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 do you mean, that you use this proverb concerning Eretz-Israel, saying, ‘The fathers have eaten sour grapes, and the children’s teeth are set on edge’?
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,” says the Lord GOD, “you shall not use this proverb any more 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.
Behold, all souls are mine; as the soul of the father, so also the soul of the son is mine. The soul who sins, he shall die.
5 Moloidafa ida: iwane dunu ea hou ba: ma.
“But if a man is just, and does that which is lawful and right,
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.
and has not eaten on the mountains, hasn’t lifted up his eyes to the idols of the house of Israel, hasn’t defiled his neighbor’s wife, hasn’t come near a woman in her impurity,
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 has not wronged any, but has restored to the debtor his pledge, has taken nothing by robbery, has given his bread to the hungry, and has covered the naked with a garment;
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.
he who hasn’t lent to them with interest, hasn’t taken any increase from them, who has withdrawn his hand from iniquity, has executed true justice between man and man,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.
has walked in my statutes, and has kept my ordinances, to deal truly; he is just, he shall surely live,” says the Lord GOD.
10 Be amo dunu da mano galea, amo da wamolasu amola medole legesu, amola wadela: i hou ea ada hame hamoi liligi hamosa,
“If he fathers a son who is a robber who sheds blood, and who does any one of these things,
11 amola e da gobele salasu amo sema oloda sogebi amoma i naha, amola inia uda adole laha,
or who does not do any of those things but has eaten at the mountain shrines and defiled his neighbor’s wife,
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.
has wronged the poor and needy, has taken by robbery, has not restored the pledge, and has lifted up his eyes to the idols, has committed abomination,
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.
has lent with interest, and has taken increase from the poor, shall he then live? He shall not live. He has done all these abominations. He shall surely die. His blood will be on him.
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.
“Now, behold, if he fathers a son who sees all his father’s sins which he has done, and fears, and doesn’t do likewise,
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.
who hasn’t eaten on the mountains, hasn’t lifted up his eyes to the idols of the house of Israel, hasn’t defiled his neighbor’s wife,
hasn’t wronged any, hasn’t taken anything to pledge, hasn’t taken by robbery, but has given his bread to the hungry, and has covered the naked with a garment;
who has withdrawn his hand from the poor, who hasn’t received interest or increase, has executed my ordinances, has walked in my statutes; 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.
As for his father, because he cruelly oppressed, robbed his brother, and did that which is not good among his people, behold, he will die 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.
“Yet you say, ‘Why doesn’t the son bear the iniquity of the father?’ When the son has done that which is lawful and right, and has kept all my statutes, and has done them, he will 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 soul who sins, he shall die. The son shall not bear the iniquity of the father, neither shall the father bear the iniquity of the son. The righteousness of the righteous shall be on him, and the wickedness of the wicked shall be on him.
21 Wadela: i dunu da wadela: i hou yolesili, Na malei nabawane hamosea, amola hou moloiwane hamosea, bogosu mae ba: le, esalumu.
“But if the wicked turns from all his sins that he has committed, and keeps all my statutes, and does that which is lawful and right, 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 that he has committed will be remembered against him. In his righteousness that he has 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.
Have I any pleasure in the death of the wicked?” says the Lord GOD, “and not rather that he should return from his way, and 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 the righteous turns away from his righteousness, and commits iniquity, and does according to all the abominations that the wicked man does, should he live? None of his righteous deeds that he has done will be remembered. In his trespass that he has trespassed, and in his sin that he has sinned, in them he shall 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!
“Yet you say, ‘The way of the Lord is not equal.’ Hear now, house of Israel: Is my way not equal? Aren’t your ways unequal?
26 Moloidafa dunu da moloi hou fisili, wadela: i hou hamonanea, e da ea wadela: i hou hamobeba: le bogomu.
When the righteous man turns away from his righteousness, and commits iniquity, and dies in it, then he dies in his iniquity that he has done.
27 Be wadela: i hamosu dunu da wadela: i hou fisili, bu moloi hou hamonanea, e da ea esalusu gaga: i dagoi ba: mu.
Again, when the wicked man turns away from his wickedness that he has committed, and does that which is lawful and right, he will save his soul alive.
28 E da wadela: i hou hamonana, amo hi dawa: digibiba: le, yolesisa. Amaiba: le, e da mae bogole esalumu.
Because he considers, and turns away from all his transgressions that he has 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.
Yet the house of Israel says, ‘The way of the Lord is not fair.’ House of Israel, aren’t my ways fair? Aren’t your ways unfair?
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 I will judge you, house of Israel, everyone according to his ways,” says the Lord GOD. “Return, and turn yourselves from all your transgressions, so iniquity will not be your ruin.
31 Dilia wadela: i hou hamonanea yolesima. Asigi dawa: su gaheabolo amola dogo gaheabolo lama. Dilia Isala: ili dunu abuliba: le bogomusa: hanabela: ?”
Cast away from you all your transgressions in which you have transgressed; and make yourself a new heart and a new spirit. For why will you die, 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 have no pleasure in the death of him who dies,” says the Lord GOD. “Therefore turn yourselves, and live!
