< Ezekiel 9 >
1 Then I heard Him call out in a loud voice, saying, “Draw near, O executioners of the city, each with a weapon of destruction in hand.”
Ary niantso tamin’ ny feo mahery teo anatrehako Jehovah ka nanao hoe: Manakeke ianareo, ry mpiambina ny tanàna, ka samia mitondra ny fiadiany eny an-tànany avy ho enti-mandringana.
2 And I saw six men coming from the direction of the Upper Gate, which faces north, each with a weapon of slaughter in his hand. With them was another man clothed in linen who had a writing kit at his side. And they came in and stood beside the bronze altar.
Ary, indreo, nisy lehilahy enina avy tamin’ ny lalana mankamin’ ny vavahady ambony, izay manatrika ny avaratra, sady samy nitondra ny fiasany fanorotoroana teny an-tanany avy izy; ary ny anankiray tamin’ ireo dia nitafy rongony fotsy, sady nisy fitoeran-dranomaintin’ ny mpanoratra teo am-balahany; ary niditra izy ireo ka nitsangana teo anilan’ ny alitara varahina.
3 Then the glory of the God of Israel rose from above the cherubim, where it had been, and moved to the threshold of the temple. And He called to the man clothed in linen who had the writing kit at his side.
Ary ny voninahitr’ Andriamanitry ny Isiraely efa niakatra niala teo amin’ ny kerobima, izay nitoerany, ho eo amin’ ny tokonam-baravaran’ ny trano, ary Izy niantso ilay olona nitafy rongony, totsy izay nisy fitoeran-dranomaintin’ ny mpanoratra teo am-balahany.
4 “Go throughout the city of Jerusalem,” said the LORD, “and put a mark on the foreheads of the men sighing and groaning over all the abominations committed there.”
Ary hoy Jehovah taminy: Mandehana mamaky ny tanàna, dia Jerosalema, ka asio marika ny handrin’ ny olona izay misento sy mitaraina noho ny fahavetavetana rehetra atao eo aminy.
5 And as I listened, He said to the others, “Follow him through the city and start killing; do not show pity or spare anyone!
Ary reko Izy nanao tamin’ ny sasany hoe: Mandehana manaraka azy ianareo hamaky ny tanàna, ka mameleza; aoka tsy hamindra fo aminy ny masonareo, ary aza ananana antra izy,
6 Slaughter the old men, the young men and maidens, the women and children; but do not go near anyone who has the mark. Now begin at My sanctuary.” So they began with the elders who were before the temple.
Fa na lahy antitra, na zatovo, na virijina, na zaza madinika, na vehivavy, dia aringano avokoa; fa izay olona misy ilay marika ihany no aza kasihina ary atombohy hatreo amin’ ny fitoerako masìna izany. Dia nanomboka tamin’ ny lahy antitra izay teo anoloan’ ny trano ireo.
7 Then He told them, “Defile the temple and fill the courts with the slain. Go forth!” So they went out and began killing throughout the city.
Ary hoy Izy taminy: Lotoy ny trano, ary fenoy faty ny kianja; dia mivoaha ianareo. Ary dia nivoaka izy ka namely ny tao an-tanàna.
8 While they were killing, I was left alone. And I fell facedown and cried out, “Oh, Lord GOD, when You pour out Your wrath on Jerusalem, will You destroy the entire remnant of Israel?”
Ary raha mbola namely izy, ary izaho ihany no sisa teo, dia niankohoka aho ka nitaraina hoe: Indrisy! Jehovah Tompo ô! haringanao va ny sisa rehetra amin’ ny Isiraely amin’ izao ampidinanao ny fahatezeranao amin’ i Jerosalema izao?
9 He replied, “The iniquity of the house of Israel and Judah is exceedingly great. The land is full of bloodshed, and the city is full of perversity. For they say, ‘The LORD has forsaken the land; the LORD does not see.’
Dia hoy Izy tamiko: Lehibe dia lehibe ny heloky ny taranak’ ny Isiraely sy ny Joda, ary feno ran’ olona nalatsaka ny tany, sady feno fitsarana miangatra ny tanàna, satria hoy izy: Jehovah efa nahafoy ny tany ary Jehovah tsy mahita.
10 But as for Me, I will not look on them with pity, nor will I spare them. I will bring their deeds down upon their own heads.”
Ary Izaho kosa, dia tsy hiantra ny masoko, sady tsy hamindra fo aho, fa hatsingeriko ho eo an-dohany ny nataony.
11 Then the man clothed in linen with the writing kit at his side reported back, “I have done as You commanded.”
Ary, indro, ralehilahy, ilay nitafy rongony fotsy sady nisy fitoeran-dranomainty teo am-balahany, dia nitondra teny niverina nanao hoe: Efa vitako izay nandidianao ahy.
