Ezekiel 2
1 He said to me, “Son of man, stand on your feet, and I will speak with you.”
Ọ sịrị m, “Nwa nke mmadụ, bilie ọtọ, guzo nʼụkwụ gị abụọ, nʼihi na ana m aga ịgwa gị okwu.”
2 The Spirit entered into me when he spoke to me, and set me on my feet; and I heard him who spoke to me.
Mmụọ ahụ banyere nʼime m mgbe ahụ ọ na-ekwu okwu, mee ka m guzo ọtọ nʼụkwụ m abụọ. Anụrụ m ka ọ gwara m okwu.
3 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.
Ọ sịrị m, “Nwa nke mmadụ, ana m eziga gị ka i jekwuru ndị Izrel, ndị bụ mba na-enupu isi, ndị nupuru isi megide m. Ha na nna nna ha enupula isi megide m, ruo ọ bụladị nʼụbọchị taa.
4 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.’
Ndị ahụ m na-eziga gị ka i jekwuru bụ ndị isiike na ndị nnupu isi. Sị ha, ‘Ihe ndị a ka Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị na-ekwu.’
5 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 among them.
Ma ha gere gị ntị, ma ha egeghị gị ntị (ha bụ ndị na-enupu isi), ihe dị mkpa bụ na ha ga-amata na onye amụma anọọla nʼetiti ha.
6 You, son of man, do not be afraid of them, neither be afraid of their words, though briers and thorns are with you, and you dwell among scorpions. Do not be afraid of their words, nor be dismayed at their looks, though they are a rebellious house.
Ma gị nwa nke mmadụ, atụla ha egwu. Ka ụjọ okwu si ha nʼọnụ ghara ịtụkwa gị. Atụla egwu, ọ bụladị ma a sị na ogwu na uke gbara gị gburugburu, ọ bụladị ma a sị na i bi nʼetiti ụmụ akpị. Ka ụjọ ghara ịtụ gị nʼihi okwu ọnụ ha, ekwekwala ka ha menye gị egwu, nʼihi na ha bụ ndị na-enupu isi.
7 You shall speak my words to them, whether they will hear or whether they will refuse; for they are most rebellious.
Ị ghaghị izi ha ozi m ziri gị zie ha, ma ha gere ntị ma ha egeghị ntị, nʼihi na ha bụ ndị na-enupu isi.
8 But you, son of man, hear what I tell you. Do not be rebellious like that rebellious house. Open your mouth, and eat that which I give you.”
Ma gị, nwa nke mmadụ, gee ntị nʼihe m na-agwa gị. Enupula isi dịka ha si nupu isi. Meghee ọnụ gị taa ihe m ga-etinye gị nʼọnụ.”
9 When I looked, behold, a hand was stretched out to me; and behold, a scroll of a book was in it.
Otu mgbe ahụ, elere m anya hụ aka e setịpụrụ, nke ji akwụkwọ a fụkọrọ afụkọ,
10 He spread it before me. It was written within and without; and lamentations, mourning, and woe were written in it.
nke e dekwara ihe nʼime ya, ihu na azụ ya. Aka ahụ ji ya gbasapụrụ ya mee ka m hụ ihe e dere nʼime ya. Ọ bụ okwu ịkwa akwa na iru ụjụ na ahụhụ.
