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.”
Ergasis ani isaa, “Warra tokkoon tokkoon isaanii miʼa lolaa harkatti qabatanii magaalattii balleessan as dhiʼeessi” jedhee gurra kootti iyyu nan dhagaʼe.
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.
Anis utuu namoonni jaʼa kallattii karra ol aanuu kan gara kaabaa ilaaluun tokkoon tokkoon isaanii meeshaa nama ajjeesu harkatti qabatanii dhufaa jiranuu nan arge. Isaan wajjinis nama uffata quncee talbaa irraa hojjetame uffate kan mudhii isaatti korojoo katabbii hidhate tokkotu ture. Isaanis ol seenanii iddoo aarsaa naasii bira dhaabatan.
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.
Ulfinni Waaqa Israaʼelis iddoo irra buʼee ture kiirubeelii irraa kaʼee gara gulantaa mana qulqullummaatti qajeele. Ergasiis Waaqayyo namicha wayyaa quncee talbaa irraa tolfame uffatee mudhii isaatti korojoo katabbii hidhate sana waame;
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.”
innis akkana jedheen; “Guutummaa magaalaa Yerusaalem keessa deemiitii adda namoota sababii wantoota jibbisiisoo ishee keessatti hojjetaman hundaatiif gaddanii booʼan irratti mallattoo godhi.”
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!
Inni utuma ani dhagaʼuu warra kaaniin akkana jedhe; “Magaalattii keessa isa faana deemaatii utuu garaa hin laafin yookaan utuu hin mararfatin ajjeesaa.
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.
Jaarsota, dargaggeeyyii, shamarran, dubartootaa fi ijoollee ajjeesaa; nama mallattoo qabu kam iyyuu garuu hin tuqinaa. Iddoo qulqullummaa koo irraa jalqabaa.” Kanaafuu isaan jaarsota fuula mana qulqullummaa dura jiran irraa jalqaban.
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.
Innis, “Mana qulqullummaa xureessaa; waltajjichas reeffaan guutaa. Itti baʼaa!” jedheen. Kanaafuu isaan gad baʼanii magaalattii guutuu keessatti ajjeesuu jalqaban.
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?”
Utuu isaan ajjeesaa jiranii, ani kophaa koo hafee addaan lafatti gombifamee, “Ani bade yaa Waaqayyo Gooftaa! Ati dheekkamsa kee Yerusaalem irratti roobsuudhaan hambaawwan Israaʼel hunda balleessuuf jirtaa?” jedheen iyye.
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.’
Innis akkana jedhee naaf deebise; “Cubbuun mana Israaʼelii fi Yihuudaa akka malee guddaa dha; biyyattiin dhiiga dhangalaasuudhaan, magaalaan immoo jalʼinaan guutamteerti. Isaan, ‘Waaqayyo biyyattii gateera; Waaqayyo hin argu’ jedhu.
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.”
Kanaafuu ani ija gara laafinaatiin isaan hin ilaalu yookaan hin hiluufis; garuu ani waanuma isaan hojjetan mataa isaaniitti nan fida.”
11 Then the man clothed in linen with the writing kit at his side reported back, “I have done as You commanded.”
Ergasii namichi uffata quncee talbaa irraa hojjetame uffatee korojoo katabbii mudhii isaatti hidhate sun deebiʼee dhufee, “Ani akkuma ati na ajajje sana godheera” jedhe.
