Isigiele 20
1 Eso nabu amola oubi bi amola ode fesu ninia mugululi misi esoga ba: i. Isala: ili fi ouligisu dunu mogili da Hina Gode Ea hamomu hanai bai nama adole ba: musa: misini, na midadi bulagi.
On the tenth day of the fifth month of the seventh year, some of the elders of Israel came to ask advice from the Lord, and they sat down with me.
2 Amalalu, Hina Gode da nama amane sia: i,
Then a message from the Lord came to me, saying,
3 “Dunu egefe! Amo dunuma amane sia: ma, ‘Ouligisu Gode da amane sia: sa, Dilia da Na hamomu hanai adole ba: musa: misibala: ? Na da dafawane Ouligisudafa Hina Gode, amola Na da dili Nama adole ba: su logo hedofamu. Na, Ouligisudafa Hina Gode da sia: i dagoi.’
“Son of man, tell these elders of Israel that this is what the Lord God says: Have you come to ask my advice? As I live, I'm not going to answer you, declares the Lord God.
4 Dunu egefe! Di da ilima fofada: ma: bela: ? Defea! Ilima fofada: ma! Ilia eda ilia wadela: i hou hamoi, amo ilia dawa: ma: ne, ilima olelema.
Are you going to condemn them—will you do that, son of man? Remind them about the disgusting things their forefathers did,
5 Ilima amane sia: ma, ‘Ouligisudafa Hina Gode da amane sia: sa, Na da Isala: ili fi ilegeloba, amo esoha Na da Ya: igobe egaga fi Idibidi soge ganodini esalu ilima misini, Na lobo gaguia gadole, amane dafawane sia: i, ‘Na da dilia Hina Godedafa.’
and then tell them that this is what the Lord God says: At the time I chose Israel, I held up my hand and made a solemn promise to Jacob's descendants and revealed myself to them when they were in Egypt. I held up my hand and told them, ‘I am the Lord your God.’
6 Amo esoha Na da ili Idibidi sogega fisili masa: ne asunasili, soge amo Na da ilima ima: ne hogole ba: i (soge ida: iwane fedege agoane bulamagau dodo maga: me amola agime hano bagadedafa galebeba: le, hano agoane a: iahoa) amoga oule masa: ne, dafawanedafa ilegele sia: i.
I promised them on that day to lead them out of Egypt and take them to a country that I had chosen for them, a land flowing with milk and honey—better than any other country.
7 Amola Na da ilima amane sia: i, ‘Dilia afae afae wadela: idafa loboga hamoi ‘gode’ liligi dilia ba: lala, amo galagama. Idibidi loboga hamoi ‘gode’ liligi da dilia hou ledo hamosa: besa: le, amo bu maedafa dawa: ma. Na da dilia Hina Gode esala.’
I told them: ‘All of you have to get rid of your disgusting pagan images. Don't make yourselves unclean by worshiping the idols of Egypt. I am the Lord your God.’
8 Be ilia da Na sia: hame nabi amola Nama odoga: i. Ilia da ilia wadela: idafa loboga hamoi ‘gode’ hame galagai. Amola Idibidi ogogosu ‘gode’ ilima nodone sia: ne gadosu hou hame yolesi. Na da Idibidi sogega, Na ougi hou bagade ilima olelemusa: dawa: i galu.
But they rebelled against me and wouldn't do what I told them. None of them got rid of their disgusting pagan images, and they didn't give up worshiping the idols of Egypt. So I warned them that I would punish them in my anger there in Egypt.
9 Be Na da amane hame hamoi. Bai Na Dio wadela: sa: besa: le, hame hamoi. Na da Idibidi dunu ba: ma: ne, Na da Isala: ili dunuma ili Idibidi sogega fisili masa: ne, Na da ili ga oule masa: ne sisia: i dagoi. Amaiba: le, Na da ogogosu dunu ilia dawa: sa: besa: le, ilima ougi se bidi hame i.
But I did act so I would not be misrepresented, so that I wouldn't lose respect in the eyes of the other nations living near them who had seen me reveal myself to Israel by leading them out of Egypt.
10 Amaiba: le, Na da Isala: ili dunu Idibidi sogega fisili masa: ne, ili hafoga: i sogega oule asi.
So I led them out of Egypt and took them into the wilderness.
11 Na hamoma: ne sia: i amola sema da nowa dunu da nabawane hamosa, amoma esalusu iaha. Amo malei amola sema Na da Isala: ili dunuma olelei.
There I gave them my laws and explained to them my regulations so that those who kept them would live.
12 Na da Sa: bade eso sema ilima i. Sa: bade eso da Na gousa: su hamoi, amoma dawa: digima: ne olelesu, amola Na da ilia hou bu hadigima: ne hamomu, amo dawa: digima: ne hamoi.
I also gave them my Sabbaths to be a sign between me and them, so that they would acknowledge that I am the Lord who makes them holy.
13 Be ilia da hafoga: i sogea amowane, Nama higale lelesu. Na hamoma: ne sia: i amola Na sema (amo da nowa dunu da nabawane hamosa, ema esalusu iaha) huluane higale fi dagoi. Ilia da Sa: bade eso sema wadela: lesidafa. Na da hafoga: i sogega, ilima ougi bagade se bidi imunusa: , amola ili wadela: lesimusa: momagei galu.
But the people of Israel rebelled against me in the desert, refusing to observe my laws and rejecting my regulations, even though they would have given them life. They violated my Sabbaths. So I warned them that I would punish them and wipe them out there in the desert.
14 Be Na da amane hame hamoi. Bai fifi asi gala amo da Na Isala: ili fi Idibidi sogega fisili masa: ne, gadili asunasi, amo ba: i, ilia da Na Dio amoma hame nodosa: besa: le, Na amane hame hamoi.
But I still acted for them so I would not be misrepresented, so that I wouldn't lose respect in the eyes of the other nations who had seen me lead Israel out of Egypt.
15 Amo dawa: beba: le, Na da hafoga: i soge ganodini, Na da dilia eda amo soge Na da ilima i dagoi (amo soge da gugui amola nasegagi, baligili noga: idafa) amoga hame oule masunusa: ilegei.
So I held up my hand and vowed to them in the desert that I wouldn't take them into the land that I had given them, a land flowing with milk and honey—better than any other country—
16 Bai ilia da Na hamoma: ne sia: i hame nabi, amola Na sema fi, amola Sa: bade eso sema wadela: lesi, amola Na fisili, ilia da ogogosu ‘gode’ ilima sia: ne gadomusa: hanai galu.
because they repeatedly rejected my regulations, refused to observe my laws, and violated my Sabbaths, and because they chose to continue worshiping idols.
17 Be amalalu, Na da ilima bu asigisu. Na da ili hafoga: i sogega medole legemusa: dawa: i bu yolesi.
Even so I was sorry for them and I didn't destroy them; I didn't wipe them out in the desert.
18 Be amomane, Na da ayeligi amola a: fini ilia gilisisu ganodini sisane amane i, ‘Dilia aowalalia sema hamoi amola ilia hou amoma mae fa: no bobogema. Dilia ledo hamoi ba: sa: besa: le, ilia loboga hamoi ‘gode’ ilima mae nodone sia: ne gadoma.
I told their children in the desert: ‘Don't do what your fathers told you to do. Don't follow their practices. Don't make yourselves unclean by worshiping their idols.
19 Na da dilia Hina Godedafa. Na hamoma: ne sia: i amola Na sema nabawane hamoma.
I am the Lord your God. Do what I tell you to do. Follow my regulations and make sure to practice them.
20 Sa: bade eso da hadigi eso, amola gousa: su Na dilima hamoi da dawa: digisu ilegesu gala. Amola Na da dilia Hina Godedafa. Amo huluane dilia bu dawa: ma: ne, Sa: bade eso sema noga: le ouligima.
Keep my Sabbaths holy so they may be a sign between me and you, so that you may acknowledge that I am the Lord your God.’
21 Be amo fifi misi amola da Na higasu. Ilia da Na sema fi amola Na hamoma: ne sia: i (amo da nowa dunu da nabawane hamosea, ema esalusu iaha) amo hame nabi. Ilia da Sa: bade eso sema wadela: lesi. Na da hafoga: i sogega ilima ougi se bidi imunusa: , amola ili huluane medole legemusa: dawa: i galu.
But their children also rebelled against me. They didn't follow my laws and didn't keep my regulations, even though they would have given them life. They violated my Sabbaths. So I warned them that I would punish them in my anger there in the desert.
22 Be Na da amane hame hamoi. Bai fifi asi gala amo da Na Isala: ili fi Idibidi sogega fisili masa: ne, gadili asunasi, amo ba: i, ilia da Na Dio amoma hame nodosa: besa: le, Na da amane hame hamoi.
But I held back and did what I did so I would not be misrepresented, so that I wouldn't lose respect in the eyes of the other nations who had seen me lead Israel out of Egypt.
23 Amaiba: le, Na da hafoga: i sogega ilima eno ilegei. Na da ili osobo bagade fifi asi gala huluane, amo ganodini afagololesima: ne, dafawane ilegele sia: i.
However, I held up my hand and vowed to them in the desert that I was going to scatter them among the various countries of different nations.
24 Ilia da Na sema fiba: le, amola Na hamoma: ne sia: i nabawane hame hamobeba: le, amola Sa: bade eso sema fiba: le, amola ogogosu ‘gode’ (amoma ilia aowalalia da fa: no bobogei) ilima nodone sia: ne gadobeba: le, Na da amane hamoi.
For they didn't keep my regulations, instead they rejected my laws and violated my Sabbaths, always looking to worship their fathers' idols.
25 Amalalu, Na da noga: i hame sema ilima i, amola hamoma: ne sia: i amo da esalusu hame iaha, ilima i.
I also let them follow the regulations they wanted that weren't good; laws that wouldn't help them live.
26 Ilia da ilila: gobele salasu amoga ledo hamoma: ne, Na da logo doasi. Amola ilia da ilila: magobo mano medole legele, gobele salimusa: , Na da logo doasi. Amo da ilima se ima: ne, amola Na da Hina Godedafa ili dawa: musa: amo olelema: ne, Na da amane hamoi.
I let them make themselves unclean by their offerings to idols, including their firstborn sons. I allowed this to happen so that they would be so appalled that they would acknowledge that I am the Lord.
27 Wali, dunu egefe! Isala: ili dunuma, Na, Ouligisudafa Hina Gode, Na sia: ilima adosima. Ilia aowalalia da eno agoane Nama gadesu.
So, son of man, tell the people of Israel that this is what the Lord God says: You're acting in exactly the same way your forefathers insulted me by being unfaithful to me.
28 Na da soge amo Na da ilima imunusa: ilegei, amoga ili oule misi. Ilia da goumi sedade amola gahe ifa ba: beba: le, huluane amogai gobele salasu hamosu. Ilia da gobele salasu hamobeba: le, amola waini hano ogogosu ‘gode’ ilima imunusa: gaguli misiba: le, Na da ougi bagade ba: i.
After I led them into the land that I had promised to give them, on any high hill or under any leafy tree they saw there they offered their pagan sacrifices and presented offerings to idols that made me angry, burning their sweet-smelling incense and pouring out their drink offerings.
29 Na da ilima amane adole ba: i, ‘Amo gadodafa sogebi amoga dili ahoa, ilia bai da adila: ?’ Amaiba: le, ilia da amo sogebi fa: noga ‘Gadodafa Sogebi’ dio sia: sa.
So I asked them: ‘What's this high place you're going to?’ (Even today it's still called Bamah.)
30 Wali, Isala: ili dunuma, Na, Ouligisudafa Hina Gode, Na sia: be ilima adosima. ‘Dilia abuliba: le, dilia aowalalia ilia wadela: i hou defele, ogogosu ‘gode’ ilima hehenaia fa: no bobogesala: ?
Therefore tell the people of Israel that this is what the Lord God says: Are you going to make yourselves unclean like your forefathers, turning yourselves into prostitutes, acting the way they did with the same disgusting practices?
31 Waha amolawane, dilia da ili defele gobele salasu hamosa. Dilia da dilia mano ogogosu ‘gode’ ilima laluga gobele salabeba: le, dilila: hou ledo hamosa. Abuliba: le dilia Isala: ili dunu da Na hamomu hanai adoleba: la mahabela: ? Na, Ouligisudafa Hina Gode da Fifi Ahoanusu Gode! Amaiba: le, Na da amane dafawane sia: sa. Na da dilia Nama adole ba: su logo hedofamu.
When you present your offerings to idols and sacrifice your children in the fire, you continue to make yourselves unclean with all your idols right up until now. So should I give you advice when you ask me, people of Israel? As I live, declares the Lord God, I'm not going to answer you!
32 Dilia da eno fifi asi gala huluane ilia hou defele hamomusa: hanai gala. Ilia da ifa amola igi amoma nodone sia: ne gadosu hou hamosa. Be Na fi ilia da agoane hamomu da hamedei.
When you say to yourselves, ‘Let's be like the other nations, like people in other countries who worship idols made of wood and stone,’ what you're thinking is never going to happen.
33 Na da Ouligisudafa Hina Gode! Amola na da Fifi Ahoanusu Gode esalebeba: le, Na da dafawane dilima sisane iaha. Na da ougiba: le, Na gasa bagade defele, dilima gasa fili ouligimu.
As I live, declares the Lord God, I will rule you with all my strength and power, and in my anger.
34 Na da dili fifi asi gala enoenoi amoga afagogoi dagoi. Be Na da dilia sogega dili buhagima: ne gagadosea, Na da Na gasa bagade hou amola Na ougi hou dilima olelemu.
With all my strength and power, and in my anger, I will lead you out from among the nations and gather you from the countries where you were scattered.
35 Na da dili fifi asi gala eno amoga oule asili, dilia odagia ba: ma: ne se imunusa: fofada: mu. (Amogai esalea, dilia da amo fifi asi gala ‘Hafoga: i Soge Fifi Asi Gagai’ defele ba: mu).
I will bring you before me for judgment face to face in the desert of the nations.
36 Na da Sainai hafoga: i sogega dilia aowalalia ilima fofada: nanu, se iasu. Amo defele, Na da dilima fofada: mu,” Ouligisudafa Hina Gode da amane sia: sa.
In the same way I judged your forefathers in the Egyptian desert after I'd led them out of Egypt, so I will judge you, declares the Lord God.
37 “Na da dili gasawane ouligimu amola dilia Na gousa: su nabawane hamoma: mu.
I will decide about you as you pass under the rod and see if you kept our solemn agreement.
38 Nowa da lelelewane wadela: i hou hamosea, Na da dilia mugululi misi gilisisu amoga fadegale fasimu. Ilia wali esalebe soge amoga Na da fadegamu. Be ilia da Isala: ili sogega hame buhagimu. Amasea, Na da Hina Gode, amo dilia da dawa: mu.”
I will get rid of those of you who rebel against me, those who sin against me. I will lead them out of the country where they're currently living, but they won't enter the land of Israel. Then you will know that I am the Lord.
39 Ouligisudafa Hina Gode da amane sia: i, “Defea! Dilia Isala: ili dunu huluane! Dilia hanaiga hamoma! Dilia ogogosu ‘gode’ ilima fa: no bobogema! Be Na da dilima sisane sia: sa. Dilia fa: no dilia hanai yolesili, Nama nabawane hawa: hamonanebe ba: mu. Amola dilia da ogogosu ‘gode’ ilima iasu yolesimuba: le, dilia da Na Dio bu hame lasogolalumu.
This is what the Lord God says to you, you people of Israel: All of you, go ahead and worship your idols. But after that if you don't listen to me you won't continue to disgrace me with your pagan offerings and idols.
40 Isala: ili soge ganodini, Na hadigi gadodafa goumi amo da: iya, Isala: ili dunu dilia da Nama nodone sia: ne gadomu. Na da dilima hahawane ba: mu. Amasea, Na da dilia gobele salasu liligi amola hahawane hadigi iasu amo huluane Nama gaguli misa: ne sia: mu.
For there on my holy mountain, Israel's high mountain, declares the Lord God, every single person in the whole country of Israel will worship me. That's where I'll accept them and will ask for your offerings and your best gifts, together with all your holy sacrifices.
41 Na da dili fifi asi gala enoenoi amo ganodini esaloma: ne, amoga afagogoi dagoi. Be Na da dilia sogega dili buhagima: ne gagadosea, amo fa: no Na da liligi dilia gobele salimusa: gaguli maha, amo nodone lamu. Amasea, fifi asi gala huluane da Na da hadigidafa ba: mu.
When I bring you back from the nations and gather you from countries where you were scattered, I will accept you as a suitable offering to me. I will reveal my holiness through you so the nations can see.
42 Na da Isala: ili soge amo dilia aowalalima imunusa: ilegele sia: i. Na da dili amogawi bu oule masea, dilia da Na da Hina Gode dawa: mu.
Then you will acknowledge that I am the Lord when I bring you back to the country of Israel, the land that I promised to give your forefathers.
43 Amasea, dilia da wadela: i hou hamoi amola dilia hou ledo hamoi, amo dilia da bu gogosiane dawa: mu. Dilia da dilia musa: wadela: i hou dawa: beba: le, dilila: hou higamu.
That's where you will remember your bad ways and everything you've done to make yourselves unclean, and you will hate yourselves for the evil things you did.
44 Amola Na da Na hadigi hou gaga: musa: hamosea, dilia Isala: ili dunu da Na da Hina Gode dawa: mu. Bai Na da dilia wadela: idafa hou hamoi defele, dilima se hame iaha.” Ouligisudafa Hina Gode da sia: i dagoi.
Then you people of Israel will acknowledge that I am the Lord, because I have treated you well because of who I am, and not because of your evil ways and terrible things you've done, declares the Lord God.”
45 Hina Gode da nama amane sia: i, “Dunu egefe!
Another message from the Lord came to me, saying,
46 Ga (south) ba: le gale, amo soge amola iwila amoma fofada: ma.
“Son of man, face towards the south and preach against it. Prophesy against the forest of the Negev.
47 Ga (south) iwila amoma e da Ouligisudafa Hina Gode Ea sia: nabima: ne amane sia: ma, ‘Ba: ma! Na da lalu didisa. Amo lalu da dia ifa huluane, gahe amola bioi, huluane nemu. Ha: ba: domu da hamedei ba: mu. E da gadili nene ahoasea, dunu huluane da lalu sawa: ga fane dogolomu.
Tell the forest of the Negev: Listen to the word of the Lord! This is what the Lord God says: I am going to set you on fire, and it will burn up all your trees, both those that are living and those that are dead. The blaze won't be put out, and everything from the north to the south will be burned.
48 Ilia huluane da Na, Hina Gode, Ni fawane da lalu ulagisiba: le, enoga ha: ba: domu hamedei ba: mu.’”
Then everyone will recognize that it was me, the Lord, who started the fire, and it won't be put out.”
49 Be na da Godema gagabole sia: i, “Ouligisudafa Hina Gode! Nama agoane hamoma: ne, mae sia: ma! Dunu huluane da na da fedege idinamasu sia: fawane sia: sa, amo ilia hihini sia: daha.”
But then I said, “Oh no, Lord God! People already say, ‘He's just telling stories!’”
