< Ezekiel 13 >

1 Wach Jehova Nyasaye nobirona kama:
And there is a word of Jehovah unto me, saying,
2 “Wuod dhano, kor wach kuom jokoro mag Israel makoro sani. Wachne joma koro gik ma wigi omiyogi kama: ‘Winjuru wach Jehova Nyasaye!
'Son of man, prophesy concerning the prophets of Israel who are prophesying, and thou hast said to those prophesying from their own heart: Hear ye a word of Jehovah:
3 Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto wacho: Okwongʼ jokoro mofuwo maluwo mana gik ma chunjegi giwegi oparo to onge gima giseneno!
Thus said the Lord Jehovah: Woe unto the prophets who are foolish, Who are going after their own spirit, And they have seen nothing.
4 Yaye Israel, jokoro magu chalo mana gi ondiegi modak e gunda.
As foxes in the wastes, Thy prophets, O Israel, have been.
5 Pod ok udhi mondo udhi ulos ohinga mar Israel momukore mondo obed motegno mar kedo lweny e odiechiengʼ mar Jehova Nyasaye.
Ye have not gone up into breaches, Nor do ye make a fence for the house of Israel, To stand in battle in a day of Jehovah.
6 Fweny ma gineno ok gin adier kendo gikoro weche mag miriambo. Giwacho niya, “Jehova Nyasaye osewacho,” to Jehova Nyasaye to ok oorogi, kendo pod gin gi geno ni weche ma gikorogo biro timore.
They have seen vanity, and lying divination, Who are saying: An affirmation of Jehovah, And Jehovah hath not sent them, And they have hoped to establish a word.
7 Donge fweny ma useneno en miriambo, kendo gik mukoro gin mag wuond ka uwacho niya, “Jehova Nyasaye osewacho,” to an Jehova Nyasaye pok awacho gimoro?
A vain vision have ye not seen, And a lying divination spoken, When ye say: An affirmation of Jehovah, And I have not spoken?
8 “‘Kuom mano ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto wacho: Nikech wecheu mag miriambo kod weche mukoro mag wuond, akwedou.
Therefore, thus said the Lord Jehovah: Because ye have spoken vanity, and seen a lie, Therefore, lo, I [am] against you, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah.
9 Abiro kumo jokoro maneno fweny mag miriambo kendo koro weche mag wuond. Ok ginibed e buch joga, kendo nying-gi ok nondiki e kitepe mar dhood Israel, bende ok ginidonji e piny Israel. Eka unungʼe ni An e Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto.
And My hand hath been on the prophets, Who are seeing vanity, and who are divining a lie, In the assembly of My people they are not, And in the writing of the house of Israel they are not written, And unto the ground of Israel they come not, And ye have known that I [am] the Lord Jehovah.
10 “‘Nikech gimiyo joga lal, kagiwacho niya, “Kwe,” to kwe to onge, kendo nikech ka ji ogero kor ot mayom yom moro to giwire gi lowo marachar,
Because, even because, they did cause My people to err, Saying, Peace! and there is no peace, And that one is building a wall, And lo, they are daubing it with chalk.
11 kuom mano, nyis joma wire gi lowo marachar ni obiro podho. Koth maduongʼ biro chue, kendo abiro oro pe madongo dongo, kod yamb ahiti makudho matek.
Say to those daubing with chalk — It falleth, There hath been an overflowing shower, And ye, O hailstones, do fall, And a tempestuous wind doth rend,
12 Ka ohinga oruombore piny, to donge ji nopenju niya, “To lowo marachar mane uwirego cha koro ere?”
And lo, fallen hath the wall! Doth not one say unto you, Where [is] the daubing that ye daubed?
13 “‘Kuom mano, ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto wacho kama: Kuom mirimba mager abiro kelo yamb ahiti, kendo kuom mirimba abiro kelo koth maduongʼ kod pe mi oketh ohingano chuth.
Therefore, thus said the Lord Jehovah: I have rent with a tempestuous wind in My fury, And an overflowing shower is in Mine anger, And hailstones in My fury — to consume.
14 Abiro muko ohinga ma usewiro gi lowo maracharno mi opie piny kendo mise mare ema none kodongʼ. E kinde ma ohingano noruombre piny, to un bende notieku; kendo unungʼe ni An e Jehova Nyasaye.
And I have broken down the wall that ye daubed with chalk, And have caused it to come unto the earth, And revealed hath been its foundation, And it hath fallen, And ye have been consumed in its midst, And ye have known that I [am] Jehovah.
15 Omiyo ananyis mirimba mager kuom ohinga kod joma ne owire gi lowo marachar. Abiro wachonu ni, “Ohinga oselal nono kaachiel gi jomane owire gi lowo marachar,
And I have completed My wrath on the wall, And on those daubing it with chalk, And I say to you: The wall is not, And those daubing it are not;
16 ma gin jokor wach mag Israel mane okoro wach ni jo-Jerusalem kendo mane nenone fweny mag kwe, ka kwe mane ginenono to ne onge, Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto osewacho.”’
The prophets of Israel who are prophesying concerning Jerusalem, And who are seeing for her a vision of peace, And there is no peace, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah.
17 “Koro, wuod dhano, chom wangʼi kuom nyi jou makoro weche ma giparo. Kor wach kuomgi,
And thou, son of man, set thy face against the daughters of thy people, who are prophesying out of their own heart, and prophesy concerning them,
18 kendo iwachnegi ni, ‘Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto wacho: Okwongʼ mon mokwoyo bilo ma giritorego e ngʼut lwetgi kendo maloso kitembini ma borgi opogore opogore mar umo wiyegi mondo giket ngima ji e chandruok. Uparo ni dayienu uket ngima joga e chandruok to magu to urito maber?
And thou hast said: Thus said the Lord Jehovah: Woe to those sowing pillows for all joints of the arm, And to those making the kerchiefs For the head of every stature — to hunt souls, The souls do ye hunt of My people? And the souls ye have do ye keep alive?
19 Usemiyo nyinga oyany e dier joga mondo uyudgo mogo matin mar shairi gi ngʼinjo mar makati. Kuom wuondo joga mohero miriambo, usenego jomane ok onego otho to useweyo joma ok owinjore obed mangima.
Yea, ye pierce Me concerning My people, For handfuls of barley, And for pieces of bread, to put to death Souls that should not die, And to keep alive souls that should not live, By your lying to My people — hearkening to lies.
20 “‘Kuom mano, ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto wacho: Adagi bilo muritorugo mamiyo uketo ngima ji e chandruok mana ka winy mochik gobadho, kendo abiro yudhogi oko e lwetu, mi agony joma usemako otony ka winyo.
Therefore, thus said the Lord Jehovah: Lo, I [am] against your pillows, With which ye are hunting there the souls of the flourishing, And I have rent them from off your arms, And have sent away the souls that ye are hunting, The souls of the flourishing.
21 Abiro yiecho kitembini ma uumogo lela wengeu mi ares joga e lwetu, kendo ok ginichak gibed e bwo tekou. Eka unungʼe ni An e Jehova Nyasaye.
And I have torn your kerchiefs, And delivered My people out of your hand, And they are no more in your hand for a prey, And ye have known that I [am] Jehovah.
22 Nikech ne uchando chuny joma kare gi miriambou, ka an to ne ok amiyogi kuyo, kendo nikech ne ujiwo joma timbegi richo mondo kik gilokre giwe timbegi maricho eka gires ngimagi,
Because of paining the heart of the righteous with falsehood, And I have not pained it, And strengthening the hands of the wicked, So as not to turn back from his evil way, To keep him alive,
23 emomiyo ok unuchak une fweny mag miriambo kendo kata koro mag wuondo ji ok unutim. Abiro reso joga e lwetu. Kendo ka atimo kamano eka unungʼe ni An e Jehova Nyasaye.’”
Therefore, vanity ye do not see, And divination ye do not divine again, And I have delivered My people out of your hand, And ye have known that I [am] Jehovah!'
