Ezekiel 2
1 Nowachona niya, “Wuod dhano, aa malo ichungʼ mondo awuo kodi.”
He said to me, “Son of man, stand on your feet, and I will speak with you.”
2 Ka noyudo owuoyo, Roho mar Nyasaye nobiro kuoma mi ochunga gi tienda, mine awinje kowuoyo koda.
The Spirit entered into me when he spoke to me, and set me on my feet; and I heard him who spoke to me.
3 Nowacho niya; “Wuod dhano, aori ir jo-Israel. Aori ir oganda ma jongʼanyo. Gin kaachiel gi kweregi gisebedo ka gingʼanyona nyaka kawuono.
He said to me, “Son of man, I send you to the children of Israel, to a nation of rebels who have rebelled against me. They and their fathers have transgressed against me even to this very day.
4 Joma aori irgi gin joma wigi tek ma ok winj wach. Wachnegi kama: ‘Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto wacho.’
The children are impudent and stiff-hearted. I am sending you to them, and you shall tell them, ‘This is what the Lord GOD says.’
5 Kata giyie winji kata gidagi, nikech gin anywola ma jongʼanyo, to gibiro ngʼeyo ni janabi moro osebet e diergi.
They, whether they will hear, or whether they will refuse—for they are a rebellious house—yet they will know that there has been a prophet amongst them.
6 To in wuod dhano, kik iluorgi, kendo kata wechegi kik iluor. Kik iluor, kata obedo ni pedo gi kuthe oluori koni gi koni, kendo idak kanyachiel gi thomoni; kik iluor gik ma giwacho kendo kata bwok kik gibwogi, kata obedo ni gin anywola mohero ngʼanyo.
You, son of man, don’t be afraid of them, neither be afraid of their words, though briers and thorns are with you, and you dwell amongst scorpions. Don’t be afraid of their words, nor be dismayed at their looks, though they are a rebellious house.
7 Nyaka iwachnegi wechena, kata giyie winjo kata gidagi, nikech gihero ngʼanyo.
You shall speak my words to them, whether they will hear or whether they will refuse; for they are most rebellious.
8 To in, wuod dhano winj gima anyisi. Kik ingʼany kaka jogo mohero ngʼanyo; yaw dhogi mondo icham gima amiyi.”
But you, son of man, hear what I tell you. Don’t be rebellious like that rebellious house. Open your mouth, and eat that which I give you.”
9 Eka ne angʼicho, kendo ne aneno lwedo morie kochoma. Lwedono notingʼo ndiko modol,
When I looked, behold, a hand was stretched out to me; and behold, a scroll of a book was in it.
10 mane oyaro e nyima. E bathe koni gi koni ne ondikie weche mag ywagruok gi kuyo kod achiedh-nade.
He spread it before me. It was written within and without; and lamentations, mourning, and woe were written in it.
