< Ezekiel 21 >

1 Wach Jehova Nyasaye nobirona kama:
And there is a word of YHWH to me, saying,
2 “Wuod dhano, chom wangʼi kuom Jerusalem kendo iyal wach kikwedo kama ler mar lemo. Kor wach kuom piny Israel,
“Son of man, set your face toward Jerusalem, and prophesy to the holy places, and prophesy to the ground of Israel;
3 kendo iwachne ni ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye wacho: ‘Adagi. Abiro wuodho ligangla oko e olalo mare mi aneg joma kare gi joma timbegi richo, ka agologi kuomi.
and you have said to the ground of Israel, Thus said YHWH: Behold, I [am] against you, And have brought out My sword from its scabbard, And have cut off righteous and wicked from you.
4 Nikech abiro nego joma kare kod joma timbegi richo, ligangla biro wuodhore e olalo mare mitiek ngʼato angʼata, chakre yo milambo nyaka yo nyandwat.
Because that I have cut off righteous and wicked from you, Therefore My sword goes out from its scabbard, To all flesh, from south to north.
5 Eka ji duto nongʼe ni an Jehova Nyasaye ema asewuodho liganglana kagolo e olalo mare. Ok nodogi e olalone kendo.’
And all flesh has known that I, YHWH, Have brought out My sword from its scabbard, It does not turn back anymore.
6 “Emomiyo chur, in wuod dhano! Chur e nyimgi gi chuny motur kod kuyo malit.
And you, son of man, sigh with breaking of loins, indeed, sigh before their eyes with bitterness,
7 Kendo ka gipenji ni, ‘Angʼo momiyo ichur?’ To iniwachnegi ni, ‘Nikech wach moro mabiro timore. Bende nyisgi ni e kindeno kihondko nomakgi kendo bedegi nowengni, mi chir ma gin-go nolal nono kendo chongegi notetni.’ Kindeno osechopo kendo gigo biro timore ma ok orem, an Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto ema owacho.”
and it has come to pass, when they say to you, Why are you sighing? That you have said: Because of the report, for it is coming, And every heart has melted, And all hands have been feeble, And every spirit is weak, And all knees go [as] waters, Behold, it is coming, indeed, it has been, A declaration of Lord YHWH.”
8 Wach Jehova Nyasaye nochako obirona kama:
And there is a word of YHWH to me, saying,
9 “Wuod dhano, kor wach kinyiso ji ni Jehova Nyasaye wacho kama: “‘Ligangla, yaye ligangla mopiagi mabith kendo oywe maler,
“Son of man, prophesy, and you have said, Thus said YHWH: Say, A sword, a sword is sharpened, and also polished.
10 opiage mondo oneki kendo oyweye mondo omil ka polo! “‘Bende dwamor adier kuom ludh loch mar Juda wuoda? Nikech mano to kede akeda ma ligangla ohewo.
It is sharpened so as to slaughter a slaughter. It is polished so as to have brightness, Or do we rejoice? It is despising the scepter of My son [as] every tree.
11 “‘Omiyo ligangla ema koro iyweyo mondo ochak tich, ipiage kendo iyweye mondo okete e lwet janek.
And He gives it for polishing, For laying hold of by the hand. It is sharpened—the sword—and polished, To give it into the hand of a slayer.
12 Wuod dhano, go nduru kendo dengi, nikech liganglano ochomo joga; ochomo yawuot ruodhi mag Israel duto. Osedirgi e dho ligangla kaachiel gi joga. Emomiyo go nduru kindego nikech wachno!
Cry and howl, son of man, For it has been among My people, It [is] among all the princes of Israel, My people have been cast to the sword. Therefore strike on your thigh,
13 “‘Adier tem biro ma ok olew, kendo ludh loch mar Juda ok bi siko. Ere gima odongʼ maditim ni joma ochayo ligangla, Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto osewacho.’
Because [it is] a trier, And what if it is even despising the scepter? It will not be, a declaration of Lord YHWH.
14 “Kuom mano, wuod dhano, kor wach kendo ipam lweti kanyakla. We ligangla mondo oneg ji nyadiriyo kata nyadidek. En ligangla mar nek, adier en ligangla mar nek maduongʼ, moluorogi.
And you, son of man, prophesy, And strike hand on hand, And the sword is bent a third time, The sword of the wounded! It [is] the sword of the wounded—the great one, That is entering the inner chamber to them.
15 Aseketo ligangla mar nek e dhorangeyeni duto, mondo omi chunygi onyosre kendo ji mangʼeny notho. Abwogo dalagi gi ligangla mamil ka polo, kendo moikore mondo oneki.
To melt the heart, and to multiply the ruins, I have set the point of a sword by all their gates. Aah! It is made for brightness, Wrapped up for slaughter.
16 Yaye in ligangla mabith neg ji koni gi koni, kendo ineg ji kamoro amora michomo.
Take possession of the right, place yourself at the left, To where your face is appointed.
17 An bende abiro pamo lweta, kendo mirimba mager biro rumo. An Jehova Nyasaye ema asewacho kamano.”
And I also, I strike My hand on My hand, And have caused My fury to rest; I, YHWH, have spoken.”
18 Wach Jehova Nyasaye nobirona kama:
And there is a word of YHWH to me, saying,
19 “Wuod dhano, ket ranyisi mar ligangla kar yore ariyo ma ruodh Babulon biro luwo gi jolwenje, ranyisigo nyaka chakre e piny Babulon. Ket ranyisi moro e akerkeke yorego ma siemo dala maduongʼ.
“And you, son of man, appoint two ways for yourself, for the coming in of the sword of the king of Babylon; they come forth from one land, both of them. And create a station; create [it] at the top of the way of the city.
20 Ket ranyisi kama yo pogorego mondo onyis yo madonjo Raba mar jo-Amon, to machielo madonjo Juda kendo moro madonjo Jerusalem mochiel motegno.
Appoint a way for the coming of the sword, To Rabbath of the sons of Ammon, And to Judah, in fortified Jerusalem.
21 Nimar ruodh Babulon biro chungʼ e akerkeke mar yo, kama yore ariyogo oriworego mondo ogo gagi kama: Obiro goyo ombulu gi ligangla kendo obiro penjo nyisechege molamo wach, bende obiro rango chuny chiayo motimgo misango mondo ongʼe yo monego oluw.
For the king of Babylon has stood at the head of the way, At the top of the two ways, to use divination, He has moved lightly with the arrows, He has inquired of the teraphim, He has looked on the liver.
22 Otingʼo asere mondik ni Jerusalem e lwete ma korachwich, mondo omi ongʼe ni odhi Jerusalem, kogiyo sigich lweny kendo oloso lodi mitwomogo dhorangeye, bende ogingo pidhe mag lowo kendo okunyo buche milworogo ohinga.
The divination [for] Jerusalem has been at his right, To place battering-rams, To open the mouth with slaughter, To lift up a voice with shouting, To place battering-rams against the gates, To pour out a mound, to build a fortification.
23 Obiro nenore kaka chich mar miriambo ni joma oseloso kode winjruok, to obiro paronigi kethogi mi okawgi kaka wasumbini.
And it has been to them as a false divination in their eyes, Who have sworn oaths to them, But he is causing iniquity to be remembered [so they] are caught.
24 “Kuom mano, ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto wacho kama: ‘Nikech usemiyo richou onenore kuom kethou mutimo, kendo ka unyiso richou oyanga kuom gik mutimo; omiyo koro ibiro teru e twech kaka wasumbini.
Therefore, thus said Lord YHWH: Because of your causing your iniquity to be remembered, In your transgressions being revealed, For your sins being seen, in all your doings, Because of your being remembered, You are caught by the hand.
25 “‘Yaye ruodh jo-Israel ma timbene mono kendo richo, in bende ndaloni osechopo ma ibiro kumie mogik.
And you, wounded, wicked one, Prince of Israel, whose day has come, In the time of the iniquity of the end,
26 Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto wacho: Lony kilemba mitweyo e wiye kendo igol osimbo mar loch. Nikech gik moko ok bi bedo kaka ne gin chon: Joma ni piny ibiro tingʼ malo, to joma idewo wangʼ-gi ibiro dwok piny.
Thus said Lord YHWH: Turn aside the turban, and carry away the crown, This—not this—make high the low, And make low the high.
27 Yaye gunda, yaye gunda, abiro miyo obed gunda adier! Ok nolose kendo nyaka chop ngʼat ma wuon-go hie nobi, kendo en ema anamiyego.’
An overturn, overturn, overturn, I make it, Also this has not been until the coming of Him, Whose [is] the judgment, and I have given it.
28 “To in wuod dhano, kor wach kendo ni, ‘Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto wacho kuom jo-Amon gi ayenjegi: “‘Ligangla, yaye ligangla, osewuodhi oko, opiage kendo oyweye maler komil ka polo mondo oneki!
And you, son of man, prophesy, and you have said, Thus said Lord YHWH concerning the sons of Ammon, and concerning their reproach, and you have said: A sword, a sword, open for slaughter, Polished to the utmost for brightness!
29 Kata obedo ni osene fweny mag miriambo kuomi kendo osego gagi mag miriambo kuomi, to ibiro yieyogi e ngʼut, joma timbegi richo mibiro negi, joma odiechieng-gi ochopo kendo e kinde ma onego kumgie osechopo.
In seeing a vain thing for you, In divining a lie for you, To put you on the necks of the wounded of the wicked, whose day has come, In the time of the iniquity of the end.
30 “‘Dwok ligangla e olalone. Kama ne onywolie, e lop kwereni, ema abiro ngʼadonie bura.
Turn [it] back to its scabbard; I judge you In the place where you were produced, In the land of your birth.
31 Abiro olo mirimba mager kuomi kendo abiro olo mirimba maliel ka mach kuomi; bende abiro e lwet jo-mahundu, ma gin joma olony e ketho gik moko.
And I have poured My indignation on you, I blow against you with [the] fire of My wrath, And have given you into the hand of brutish men—craftsmen of destruction.
32 Ubiro doko mafuta mimokogo mach rembu biro chwer e pinyu, ok nochak oparu kendo; nimar an Jehova Nyasaye ema asewacho kamano!’”
You are fuel for the fire, Your blood is in the midst of the land, You are not remembered, For I, YHWH, have spoken!”
