1 Tsiku lachisanu la mwezi wachinayi, chaka cha makumi atatu, ine ndinali pakati pa amʼndende mʼmbali mwa mtsinje wa Kebara. Tsono kumwamba kunatsekuka ndipo ndinaona maonekedwe a Mulungu mʼmasomphenya.
Mugore ramakumi matatu, nomwedzi wechina pazuva rechishanu, ndiri pakati pavakatapwa, paRwizi rweKebhari, matenga akazarurwa, ndikaona zviratidzo zvaMwari.
2 Pa tsiku lachisanu la mwezi, chaka chachisanu Yehoyakini ali mʼndende,
Pazuva rechishanu romwedzi, riri gore rechishanu rokutapwa kwaMambo Jehoyakini,
3 Yehova anayankhula ndi wansembe Ezekieli, mwana wa Buzi, mʼmbali mwa mtsinje wa Kebara mʼdziko la Ababuloni. Dzanja la Yehova linali pa iye kumeneko.
shoko raJehovha rakasvika kuna Ezekieri muprista, mwanakomana waBhuzi paRwizi rweKebhari munyika yavaBhabhironi. Ipapo, ruoko rwaJehovha rwakanga rwuri pamusoro pake.
4 Ndinayangʼana ndipo ndinangoona mphepo yamkuntho ikubwera kuchokera kumpoto. Panali mtambo waukulu wozunguliridwa ndi kuwala ndipo moto unali lawilawi kuchokera mu mtambowo. Pakati pa motowo pankaoneka ngati mkuwa wonyezimira.
Ndakatarira, ndikaona dutu remhepo richibva nechokumusoro, gore guru rine mheni yaipenya uye rakakomberedzwa nechiedza chaibwinya. Pakati pomoto paitarisika sedare rinopfuta,
5 Mʼkatikati mwa motowo munali zinthu zinayi zamaonekedwe a nyama. Thupi lawo limaoneka ngati la munthu
uye mumoto makanga mune zvakanga zvakaita sezvisikwa zvipenyu zvina. Pakuonekwa kwazvo, chimiro chazvo chakanga chiri chomunhu,
6 koma chilichonse chinali ndi nkhope zinayi ndiponso mapiko anayi.
asi chimwe nechimwe chazvo chakanga chine zviso zvina namapapiro mana.
7 Miyendo yake inali yowongoka; mapazi ake anali a ziboda ngati phazi la mwana wangʼombe. Ndipo zibodazo zinkawala ngati mkuwa wonyezimira.
Makumbo azvo akanga akarurama; tsoka dzazvo dzakanga dzakaita sedzemhuru uye dzichipenya sendarira yakabwinyiswa.
8 Mʼmunsi mwa mapiko awo kumbali zonse zinayi, nyamazo zinali ndi manja a munthu. Zonse zinayi zinali ndi nkhope ndi mapiko,
Zvakanga zvina maoko omunhu pasi pamapapiro azvo pamativi azvo mana. Zvose zviri zvina zvaiva nezviso namapapiro,
9 ndipo mapiko awowo anakhudzana. Chilichonse chimapita molunjika kutsogolo; sizimatembenuka pamene zimayenda.
uye mapapiro azvo aigunzvana. Chimwe nechimwe chazvo chaienda mberi chakarurama; zvakanga zvisingacheuki pakufamba kwazvo.
10 Nkhope zawo zimaoneka motere: Chilichonse chinali ndi nkhope ya munthu, ndipo mbali ya kumanja chilichonse chinali ndi nkhope zinayi zosiyana motere: nkhope ya munthu, nkhope ya mkango ku dzanja lamanja, nkhope ya ngʼombe ku dzanja lamanzere, ndipo kumbuyo kwake nkhope ya chiwombankhanga.
Zviso zvazvo zvairatidzika sezvizvi: chimwe nechimwe pauna hwazvo chaiva nechiso chomunhu, uye kurudyi, chimwe nechimwe chaiva nechiso cheshumba, uye kuruboshwe, chiso chenzombe; chimwe nechimwe chaiva nechiso chegondo.
11 Ndi mʼmene zinalili nkhope zawo. Mapiko awo anali otambasukira mmwamba. Chamoyo chilichonse chinali ndi mapiko awiri okhudzana ndi mapiko a chinzake. Chinalinso ndi mapiko ena awiri ophimbira thupi lake.
Ndizvo zvakanga zvakaita zviso zvazvo. Mapapiro azvo akanga akatambanudzirwa kumusoro; chimwe nechimwe chakanga china mapapiro maviri rimwe richigunzva bapiro rechimwe chisikwa kumativi ose, uye mapapiro maviri akafukidza muviri wacho.
12 Zamoyozo zinkayenda molunjika kutsogolo. Kulikonse kumene mzimu umazitsogolera kupita, nazonso zimapita kumeneko, osatembenuka pamene zikupita.
Chimwe nechimwe chainanga mberi chakarurama. Kwose kwaienda mweya, ndiko kwazvaienda, zvisingacheuki pakufamba kwazvo.
13 Pakati pa zamayozo panali chinthu chooneka ngati makala oyaka kapena miyuni yoyaka. Moto umayendayenda pakati pa zamayozo; wowala kwambiri, ndipo mphenzi zimatuluka pakati pawo.
Kuonekwa kwezvisikwa zvipenyu izvi kwakanga kwakaita samazimbe omoto anopfuta, kana somwenje. Moto waienda mberi uchidzoka pakati pezvisikwa; wakanga uchipenya, uye mheni yaipenya mauri.
14 Zamoyozo zinkathamanga uku ndi uko ngati kungʼanima kwa mphenzi.
Zvisikwa zvaimhanya zvichienda mberi zvichidzoka semheni inopenya.
15 Pamene ndinali kuyangʼana zamoyozo, ndinangoona mikombero ndipo pansi pambali pa chamoyo chilichonse panali mkombero umodzi.
Ndakati ndichitarira kuzvisikwa zvipenyu, ndakaona vhiri riri pasi porutivi rwechisikwa chimwe nechimwe nezviso zvacho zvina.
16 Maonekedwe a mikomberoyo anali ngati mwala wonyezimira. Mikombero yonse inali yofanana ndipo mapangidwe awo anali ngati wongolowanalowana.
Uku ndiko kwaiva kuratidzika namagadzirirwo amavhiri acho: Akanga achivaima sebwe rekristaro, uye zvose zviri zvina zvakanga zvakafanana pakuonekwa kwazvo. Pakuonekwa kwawo napamagadzirirwo awo akanga akaita sevhiri rimwe riri mukati merimwe vhiri.
17 Mikombero ija poyenda inkatha kupita mbali iliyonse yomwe zamoyozo zinayangʼana popanda kutembenuka.
Pakufamba kwazvo, zvaigona kuenda neimwe yenzira ina dzakanga dzakatariswa nezvisikwa zvina; mavhiri akanga asingatsauki zvisikwa pazvaifamba.
18 Marimu a mikomberoyo anali aatali ndi ochititsa mantha ndipo marimu onse anayi anali ndi maso ponseponse.
Marimu acho akanga akakwirira uye aishamisa, uye marimu ose ari mana akanga azere nameso kwose kwose.
19 Zamoyozo zinkati zikamayenda, mikomberoyo imayendanso mʼmbali mwake; ndipo zamoyozo zinkati zikamakwera mmwamba, mikomberoyo imakweranso.
Zvisikwa zvipenyu zvaiti kana zvofamba, mavhiri aiva parutivi ofambawo; uye kana zvisikwa zvipenyu zvikasimuka kubva pasi, mavhiri aisimukawo.
20 Kulikonse kumene mzimu wake unkazitsogolera, zamoyozo zinkapita komweko. Ndipo mikombero ija inkapita nawo pamodzi popeza kuti mzimu wa zamoyozo ndiwo umayendetsa mikombero ija.
Kwose kwaienda mweya, zvaiendawo, uye mavhiri aisimuka pamwe chete nazvo, nokuti mweya wezvisikwa zvipenyu wakanga uri mumavhiri.
21 Zamoyo zija zinkati zikamayenda mikombero imayendanso. Zamoyozo zimati zikayima, nayonso mikombero inkayima. Zamoyozo zinkati zikawuluka, mikomberonso imawuluka nazo pamodzi chifukwa mzimu wa zamoyo zija ndiwo umayendetsa mikombero ija.
Zvisikwa pazvaifamba, iwo aifambawo; paimira zvisikwa, naiwo aimirawo; uye paingosimuka zvisikwa kubva pasi, mavhiri aisimukawo pamwe chete nazvo, nokuti mweya wezvisikwa zvipenyu wakanga uri mumavhiri.
22 Pamwamba pa mitu ya zamoyozo panali chinthu chonga thambo, lowala ndipo kunyezimira kwake ngati galasi loyangʼanitsa ku dzuwa, loyalidwa pamwamba pa mitu yake.
Kumusoro kwemisoro yezvisikwa zvipenyu kwakanga kwakawaridzwa chinhu chakanga chakaita sedenga, chaivaima sechando uye chaishamisa.
23 Zamoyozo zinatambalitsa mapiko ake mʼmunsi mwa thambo lija, mapiko ake ena kumakhudzana, mapiko awiri kumaphimba thupi lake.
Pasi pedenga mapapiro azvo akanga akatambanudzwa, bapiro rechimwe chisikwa richinosangana nebapiro rechimwe chisikwa, uye chimwe nechimwe chaiva namapapiro maviri akanga akafukidza muviri wacho.
24 Pamene zamoyo zimayenda ndimamva phokoso la mapiko ake, ngati mkokomo wa madzi ambiri, ngati liwu la Wamphamvuzonse, ngati phokoso la gulu lankhondo. Zimati zikayima zinkagwetsa mapiko ake.
Zvisikwa zvaiti zvofamba, ndainzwa kuunga kwamapapiro azvo, zvichitinhira semvura zhinji, senzwi roWamasimba Ose, sebope ravarwi. Zvaiti zvikamira zvaideredza mapapiro azvo.
25 Ndipo panamveka mawu kuchokera pamwamba pa thambo la pa mitu ya zamoyo zija. Nthawi iyi nʼkuti zamoyozo zitayima ndi kugwetsa pansi mapiko ake.
Ipapo inzwi rakasvika richibva kumusoro kwedenga rakanga riri pamusoro pazvo, pazvakanga zvakamira zvakaderedza mapapiro azvo.
26 Pamwamba pa thambo la pa mitu yake panali chinthu chimene chimaoneka ngati mpando waufumu wopangidwa ndi mwala wa safiro, ndipo pamwamba pa mpando waufumuwo panali chinthu chooneka ngati munthu.
Kumusoro kwedenga rakanga riri pamusoro pemisoro yazvo, kwakanga kune chinhu chairatidzika sechigaro choushe chakanga chakaita sebwe resafuri uye pamusoro-soro pechigaro choushe pakanga pano mufananidzo wakanga wakaita sewomunhu.
27 Ndinaona kuti mmwamba mwa chiwuno chake munali ngati chitsulo chowala konsekonse ngati moto. Mʼmunsi mwa chiwuno chake munalinso ngati moto wokhawokha. Kuwala kwa mphamvu kunamuzungulira munthuyo.
Ndakaona kuti pane zvairatidzika sechiuno chake zvichikwira kumusoro, akanga akaita sedare romoto unopenya, sokunge akazara nomoto, uye kubva ipapo zvichienda pasi, airatidzika somoto; uye chiedza chaipenya kwazvo chakanga chakamukomberedza.
28 Kuwalako kunali ndi maonekedwe a utawaleza mʼmitambo tsiku limene kwagwa mvula. Umu ndi mmene ulemerero wa Yehova umaonekera. Pamene ndinawuona ndinagwa pansi ndipo ndinamva mawu akundiyankhula.
Sezvakaita muraravungu uri mumakore pazuva rokunaya kwemvura, izvozvo, ndizvo zvakanga zvakaita kubwinya kwakanga kwakamukomberedza. Izvi ndizvo zvakanga zvakaita kuonekwa kwokubwinya kwaJehovha. Pandakazviona izvozvo, ndakawira pasi nechiso changu, ndikanzwa inzwi romumwe akanga achitaura.
