Ezekiel 14
1 Jodong Israel moko nobiro ira kendo negibet e nyima tir.
And there came to me men of the people of Israel, of the elders, and sat before me.
2 Eka wach Jehova Nyasaye nobirona kama:
And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
3 “Wuod dhano, jogi oseketo nyisechegi ma giloso giwegi e chunjegi kendo giseketo rachwany mamiyo ji podho e nyimgi. Bende owinjore koro ayienegi mondo gipenja wach adier?
Son of man, these men have conceived their devices in their hearts, and have set before their faces the punishment of their iniquities: shall I indeed answer them?
4 Kuom mano, wuo kodgi kendo inyisgi ni, ‘Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto wacho: Ka ja-Israel moro amora oketo chunye kuom lamo nyiseche manono kendo oketo rachwany mamiyo ji podho e nyime, bangʼe to odhi ir jakor wach, to an Jehova Nyasaye awuon anadwoke kaluwore gi kethone maduongʼ mar lamo nyiseche ma dhano oloso.
Therefore speak to them, and thou shalt say to them, Thus saith the Lord; Any man of the house of Israel, who shall conceive his devices in his heart, and shall set the punishment of his iniquity before his face, and shall come to the prophet; I the Lord will answer him [according to the things] in which his mind is entangled,
5 Anatim kamano mondo aduog chunje jo-Israel duto moseweya kadhi lamo nyisechegi manono.’
that he should turn aside the house of Israel, according to their hearts that are estranged from me in their thoughts.
6 “Kuom mano wachne dhood Israel ni, Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto wacho: Lokreuru! Wereuru gi nyisecheu muloso kendo kwedreuru gi timbeu mamono duto!
Therefore say to the house of Israel, Thus saith the Lord God, Be converted, and turn from your [evil] practices, and from all your sins, and turn your faces back again.
7 “Ka ja-Israel moro amora kata ka japiny moro modak e piny Israel opogore koda mi oketo geno kuom lamo nyiseche manono kendo oketo rachwany marach mamiyo ji podho e nyime, bangʼe to odhi ir jakor wach mondo openje wach, to an Jehova Nyasaye awuon ema nadwoke.
For any man of the house of Israel, or of the strangers that sojourn in Israel, who shall separate himself from me, and conceive his imaginations in his heart, and set before his face the punishment of his iniquity, and come to the prophet to enquire of him concerning me; I the Lord will answer him, [according to the things] wherein he is entangled.
8 Anabed mamon kode mi akete kaka ranyisi misiemogo joma ochaya. Abiro ngʼado kare oko e dier joga. Eka unungʼe ni An e Jehova Nyasaye.
And I will set my face against that man, and will make him desolate and ruined, and will cut him off from the midst of my people; and ye shall know that I am the Lord.
9 “‘Kendo ka achiel kuom jokor wachgo okoro wach moro, to an Jehova Nyasaye abiro rundo pache, ma wachneno ok notimre, kendo anatiek jakor wachno mi agole kuom joga ma jo-Israel.
And if a prophet should cause to err and should speak, I the Lord have caused that prophet to err, and will stretch out my hand upon him, and will utterly destroy him from the midst of my people Israel.
10 Kethogi nobed e wigi giwegi, jakor wach nokwan ni jaketho mana kaka ngʼama odhi ire mondo okorne wach bende jaketho.
And they shall bear their iniquity according to the trespass of him that asks; and it shall be in like manner to the prophet according to the trespass:
11 Eka jo-Israel ok nochak obar mi weya kendo ok ginidwanyre gi richogi duto kendo. Ginibed joga to an anabed Nyasachgi, Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto Osewacho.’”
that the house of Israel may no more go astray from me, and that they may no more defile themselves with any of their transgressions: so shall they be my people, and I will be their God, saith the Lord.
12 Wach Jehova Nyasaye nobirona kama:
And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
13 Wuod dhano, ka piny moro otimona richo kuom bedo joma ok jo-ratiro kendo; ka arieyo bada kuomgi mi angʼado oko chiembgi mapile, mi aoro kech kuomgi kendo anego joge kaachiel gi jambgi,
Son of man, if a land shall sin against me by committing a trespass, then will I stretch out my hand upon it, and will break its staff of bread, and will send forth famine upon it, and cut off from it man and beast.
14 to kata dine bed ni ji adekgi ema bedie, Nowa, Daniel kod Ayub to digires mana ngimagi giwegi nikech timbegi makare, Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto osewacho.
And though these three men should be in the midst of it, Noe, and Daniel, and Job, they [alone] should be delivered by their righteousness, saith the Lord.
15 “Kata kapo ni aoro le mager e pinyno mi giweye maonge nyithindo, mi pinyno olokore thim motwo ma dhano ok nyal kadhoe nikech le magergo,
If again I bring evil beasts upon the land, and take vengeance upon it, and it be ruined, and there be no one to pass through for fear of the wild beasts:
16 to akwongʼora gi Nyinga awuon an Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto ni kata dabed ni ji adekgi ni e iye, to ok digires kata mana ngima yawuotgi kata nyigi giwegi. Gin kendgi ema noresgi, to piny to noketh chuth.
and [if] these three men should be in the midst of it, [as] I live, saith the Lord, neither sons nor daughters shall be saved, but these only shall be saved, and the land shall be destroyed.
17 “Kata kapo ni aoro ligangla mondo oketh pinyno duto kendo anego jogi machwo kaachiel gi le ma gipidho,
Or again if I bring a sword upon that land, and say, Let the sword go through the land; and I cut off from them man and beast:
18 to mana kaka antie an Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto ni kata dabed ni ji adekgi ni e iye, to ok digires kata mana ngima yawuotgi kata dine bed ni adekgi ni e iye, to ok digires kata mana ngima yawuotgi kata mar nyigi giwegi. Gin kendgi ema noresgi.
though these three men were in the midst of it, as I live, saith the Lord, they shall not deliver sons or daughters, but they only shall be saved themselves.
19 “Kata kapo ni aoro dera e pinyno kendo aolo mirimba kuome, ka anego ji gi le duto modakie,
Or [if] again I send pestilence upon that land, and pour out my wrath upon it in blood, to destroy from off it man and beast:
20 to mana kaka antie an Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto ni kata dine bed ni Nowa gi Daniel kod Ayub ni e iye, to ok digires kata mana ngima yawuotgi kata mar nyigi giwegi. Ginires mana ngimagi giwegi nikech timgi makare.
and should Noe, and Daniel, and Job, be in the midst of it, [as] I live, saith the Lord, there shall be left [them] neither sons nor daughters; [only] they by their righteousness shall deliver their souls.
21 “Kuom mano ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto wacho: Mano kaka nobed marach moloyo kuom Jerusalem ka anaor kum maga angʼwen ma gin ligangla gi kech, gi le mager kod dera, mondo aneg joge kod le mage duto!
Thus saith the Lord, And if I even send upon Jerusalem my four sore judgments, sword, and famine, and evil beasts, and pestilence, to destroy from out of it man and beast;
22 Kata kamano, jomoko manok notony midongʼ, ma gin yawuowi gi nyiri ma nogol oko kuomgi. Ginibi iri, kendo ka ineno timbegi gi yoregi, to iniyud hoch kuom masira ma asekelo kuom Jerusalem, ma gin masiche duto masekelo kuome.
yet, behold, [there shall be] men left in it, the escaped thereof, who [shall] lead forth of it sons and daughters: behold, they [shall] go forth to you, and ye shall see their ways and their thoughts: and ye shall mourn over the evils which I have brought upon Jerusalem, [even] all the evils which I have brought upon it.
23 Iniyud hoch ka ineno timbegi gi yoregi, nimar inifweny ni onge gima asetimone maonge gima omiyo, Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto osewacho.”
And they shall comfort you, because ye shall see their ways and their thoughts: and ye shall know that I have not done in vain all that I have done in it, saith the Lord.
