< Ezekiel 6 >

1 And the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
Yehova anandipatsa uthenga uwu kuti,
2 “Son of man, set your face against the mountains of Israel and prophesy against them.
“Iwe mwana wa munthu, yangʼana ku mapiri a Israeli; yankhula nawo modzudzula
3 You are to say: ‘O mountains of Israel, hear the word of the Lord GOD! This is what the Lord GOD says to the mountains and hills, to the ravines and valleys: I am about to bring a sword against you, and I will destroy your high places.
kuti, ‘Inu mapiri a ku Israeli, imvani mawu a Ambuye Yehova. Iye akuwuza mapiri, magomo, mitsinje ndi zigwa kuti: Ine ndizakuthirani nkhondo ndipo ndidzawononga nyumba zanu mʼmene mukupembedzeramo mafano.
4 Your altars will be demolished and your incense altars will be smashed; and I will cast down your slain before your idols.
Maguwa anu ansembe adzagumulidwa ndipo maguwa anu ofukizira lubani adzaphwanyidwa; ndipo ndidzapha anthu anu pamaso pa mafano anu.
5 I will lay the corpses of the Israelites before their idols and scatter your bones around your altars.
Ine ndidzagoneka mitembo ya Aisraeli pamaso pa mafano awo, ndipo ndidzamwaza mafupa anu mozungulira maguwa anu ansembe.
6 Wherever you live, the cities will be laid waste and the high places will be demolished, so that your altars will be laid waste and desecrated, your idols smashed and obliterated, your incense altars cut down, and your works blotted out.
Konse kumene mumakhala, mizinda yanu idzasanduka bwinja. Nyumba zanu zopembedzera mafano zidzagumulidwa kotero kuti maguwa anu adzawonongedwa ndi kusakazidwa, mafano anu adzaphwanyidwa ndi kuwonongedwa. Maguwa anu ofukizirapo lubani adzagwetsedwa pansi ndipo zonse zimene munapanga zidzatheratu.
7 The slain will fall among you, and you will know that I am the LORD.
Anthu anu adzaphedwa pakati panu, ndipo mudzadziwa kuti Ine ndine Yehova.’
8 Yet I will leave a remnant, for some of you will escape the sword when you are scattered among the nations and throughout the lands.
“Komabe ndidzasiya ena pangʼono opulumuka ku nkhondo. Iwowa ndidzawamwazira ku mayiko ena pakati pa anthu a mitundu ina.
9 Then in the nations to which they have been carried captive, your survivors will remember Me—how I have been grieved by their adulterous hearts that turned away from Me, and by their eyes that lusted after idols. So they will loathe themselves for the evil they have done and for all their abominations.
Pamenepo opulumuka mwa inu adzandikumbukira ku mayiko kumene anatengedwa ukapolo. Ndidzawamvetsa chisoni chifukwa cha kusakhulupirika kwawo ndi kundipandukira kuja ndiponso chifukwa kuti anayika mtima wawo pa mafano. Choncho adzachita okha manyazi chifukwa cha zoyipa zimene ankachita ndi miyambo yonyansa imene ankatsata.
10 And they will know that I am the LORD; I did not declare in vain that I would bring this calamity upon them.
Ndipo iwo adzadziwa kuti ndine Yehova ndi kuti sindinkawaopseza chabe pamene ndinanena kuti ndidzawawononga.
11 This is what the Lord GOD says: Clap your hands, stomp your feet, and cry out “Alas!” because of all the wicked abominations of the house of Israel, who will fall by sword and famine and plague.
“Ambuye Yehova akuti: Womba mʼmanja mwako ndipo uponde mapazi ako pansi mwamphamvu ndipo ufuwule kuti, ‘Mayo!’ chifukwa cha zonyansa ndi zoyipa zonse zimene Aisraeli achita, pakuti adzaphedwa ndi lupanga, njala ndi mliri.
12 He who is far off will die by the plague, he who is near will fall by the sword, and he who remains will die by famine. So I will vent My fury upon them.
Amene ali kutali adzafa ndi mliri, ndipo amene ali pafupi adzafa pa nkhondo, ndipo amene adzapulumuke ndi kusaphedwa adzafa ndi njala. Kotero ndidzakwaniritsa ukali wanga pa iwo.
13 Then you will know that I am the LORD, when their slain lie among their idols around their altars, on every high hill, on all the mountaintops, and under every green tree and leafy oak—the places where they offered fragrant incense to all their idols.
Ndipo iwo adzadziwa kuti Ine ndine Yehova, pamene anthu awo adzagona atafa pakati pa mafano awo mozungulira maguwa awo ansembe, pamwamba pa magomo ndi mapiri onse, pansi pa mtengo uliwonse watambalala ndi wa thundu uliwonse wamasamba ambiri, kumalo kumene ankapereka nsembe zonunkhira kwa mafano awo onse.
14 I will stretch out My hand against them, and wherever they live I will make the land a desolate waste, from the wilderness to Diblah. Then they will know that I am the LORD.’”
Choncho ndidzawalanga ndi mkono wanga ndi kusandutsa dziko kukhala bwinja. Dziko lonse kumene akukhala kuyambira ku chipululu mpaka ku mzinda wa Ribula ndidzalisandutsa bwinja. Pamenepo adzadziwa kuti Ine ndine Yehova.”
