< Ezekiel 3 >

1 And he said to me, Son of man, take this roll for your food, and go and say my words to the children of Israel.
Innis, “Yaa ilma namaa waan fuula kee dura jiru nyaadhu; kitaaba maramaa kana nyaadhu; ergasii dhaqiitii mana Israaʼelitti himi” naan jedhe.
2 And, on my opening my mouth, he made me take the roll as food.
Kanaafuu ani afaan koon banadhe; innis akka ani nyaadhuuf kitaaba maramaa sana naa kenne.
3 And he said to me, Son of man, let your stomach make a meal of it and let your inside be full of this roll which I am giving you. Then I took it, and it was sweet as honey in my mouth.
Innis, “Yaa ilma namaa, kitaaba maramaa ani siif kennu kana nyaadhu; garaa kees ittiin guuttadhu” naan jedhe. Anis nan nyaadhe; afaan koo keessattis akka dammaa natti miʼaawe.
4 And he said to me, Son of man, go now to the children of Israel, and say my words to them.
Ergasii immoo akkana naan jedhe: “Yaa ilma namaa, amma gara mana Israaʼel dhaqiitii dubbii koo isaanitti himi.
5 For you are not sent to a people whose talk is strange and whose language is hard, but to the children of Israel;
Ati gara mana Israaʼelitti malee gara uummata haasaan isaa namaa hin gallee fi afaan isaa nama rakkisuutti hin ergamne;
6 Not to a number of peoples whose talk is strange and whose language is hard and whose words are not clear to you. Truly, if I sent you to them they would give ear to you.
ati gara uummata haasaan isaanii namaa hin gallee fi afaan isaanii nama rakkisu kan ati dubbii isaanii illee hubachuu hin dandeenyeetti hin ergamne. Dhugumaan utuu ani isaanitti si ergee jiraadhee silaa isaan si dhaggeeffatu ture.
7 But the children of Israel will not give ear to you; for they have no mind to give ear to me: for all the children of Israel have a hard brow and a stiff heart.
Manni Israaʼel garuu sababii ana dhagaʼuu hin feeneef siinis dhagaʼuu hin fedhan; manni Israaʼel hundi didaa fi mata jabeeyyiidhaatii.
8 See, I have made your face hard against their faces, and your brow hard against their brows.
Kunoo, ani fuula kee fuula isaaniitti jabeesseera; adda kee illee adda isaatiin jabeesseera.
9 Like a diamond harder than rock I have made your brow: have no fear of them and do not be overcome by their looks, for they are an uncontrolled people.
Adda kee akka dhagaa akka malee jabaa kan dhagaa baalcii caalaa jabaatuu nan godha. Isaan mana fincilaa taʼan iyyuu ati isaan hin sodaatin yookaan isaan si hin rifachiisin.”
10 Then he said to me, Son of man, take into your heart all my words which I am about to say to you, and let your ears be open to them.
Innis akkana naan jedhe; “Yaa ilma namaa, waan ani sitti dubbadhu hunda sirriitti dhagaʼiitii garaatti qabadhu.
11 And go now to those who have been taken away as prisoners, to the children of your people, and say to them, This is what the Lord has said; if they give ear or if they do not.
Amma gara saba kee warra boojiʼaman sanaa dhaqiitii isaanitti dubbadhu. Isaan dhagaʼanis dhagaʼuu baatanis, ‘Waaqayyo Gooftaan akkana jedha’ jedhiin.”
12 Then I was lifted up by the wind, and at my back the sound of a great rushing came to my ears when the glory of the Lord was lifted up from his place.
Ergasiis Hafuurri ol na kaase; anis sagalee guddaa gigigsu kan, “Ulfinni Waaqayyoo iddoo jireenya isaatti haa eebbifamu!” jedhu tokko of duubaan nan dhagaʼe.
13 And there was the sound of the wings of the living beings touching one another, and the sound of the wheels at their side, the sound of a great rushing.
Sagaleen kunis sagalee guddaa gigigsu kan yeroo qoochoowwan uumamawwan jiraatoo sanaa wal riganii fi sagaleen geengoowwan isaan cina jiran dhageessisan ture.
14 And the wind, lifting me up, took me away: and I went in the heat of my spirit, and the hand of the Lord was strong on me.
Hafuurris ol na kaasee na fudhatee deeme; anis hadheeffadhee utuma hafuurri koo aaree gubatuu nan deeme; harki Waaqayyoo jabaan sunis ana irra ture.
15 Then I came to those who had been taken away as prisoners, who were at Telabib by the river Chebar, and I was seated among them full of wonder for seven days.
Anis gara boojiʼamtoota Teel Abiib keessa Laga Kebaar bira jiraatan sanaan dhufe. Achittis waanan godhu wallaalee guyyaa torba isaan gidduu nan taaʼe.
16 And at the end of seven days, the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
Dhuma guyyaa torbaffaatti dubbiin Waaqayyoo akkana jedhee gara koo dhufe;
17 Son of man, I have made you a watchman for the children of Israel: so give ear to the word of my mouth, and give them word from me of their danger.
“Yaa ilma namaa, ani mana Israaʼeliitiif eegduu si godheera; kanaafuu dubbii ani dubbadhu dhagaʼiitii akeekkachiisa na biraa baʼu isaaniif kenni.
18 When I say to the evil-doer, Death will certainly be your fate; and you give him no word of it and say nothing to make clear to the evil-doer the danger of his evil way, so that he may be safe; that same evil man will come to death in his evil-doing; but I will make you responsible for his blood.
Yeroo ani nama hamaa tokkoon, ‘Ati dhugumaan ni duuta’ jedhutti, yoo ati isa akeekkachiisuu yookaan akka inni karaa isaa hamaa irraa deebiʼee lubbuu isaa oolfatu itti himuu baatte, namichi hamaan sun sababii cubbuu isaatiin ni duʼa; dhiiga isaa garuu ani harka kee irraa nan barbaada.
19 But if you give the evil-doer word of his danger, and he is not turned from his sin or from his evil way, death will overtake him in his evil-doing; but your life will be safe.
Garuu yoo ati nama hamaa sana akeekkachiiftee inni immoo hammina isaa irraa yookaan karaa isaa isa hamaa sana irraa deebiʼuu baate, inni cubbuu isaatiin ni duʼa; ati garuu lubbuu kee ni oolfatta.
20 Again, when an upright man, turning away from his righteousness, does evil, and I put a cause of falling in his way, death will overtake him: because you have given him no word of his danger, death will overtake him in his evil-doing, and there will be no memory of the upright acts which he has done; but I will make you responsible for his blood.
“Amma illee yoo namni qajeelaan tokko qajeelummaa isaa irraa jalʼatee hammina hojjete, ani fuula isaa dura gufuu nan kaaʼa; innis ni duʼa. Waan ati isa hin akeekkachiisiniif inni cubbuu isaatiin ni duʼa; wanni qajeelaan inni hojjete sunis isaaf hin herregamu; anis dhiiga isaatiif sin gaafadha.
21 But if you say to the upright man that he is not to do evil, he will certainly keep his life because he took note of your word; and your life will be safe.
Garuu yoo ati nama qajeelaa sana akka inni cubbuu hin hojjenneef isa akeekkachiiftee innis cubbuu hojjechuu baate, inni sababii akeekkachiisa sana fudhateef dhugumaan lubbuudhaan ni jiraata; atis lubbuu kee ni oolfatta.”
22 And the hand of the Lord was on me there; and he said, Get up and go out into the valley and there I will have talk with you.
Achittis harki Waaqayyoo narra ture; innis, “Kaʼiitii gara dirreetti baʼi; anis achitti sitti nan dubbadhaa” naan jedhe.
23 Then I got up and went out into the valley; and I saw the glory of the Lord resting there as I had seen it by the river Chebar; and I went down on my face.
Kanaafuu ani kaʼee gara dirreetti nan baʼe. Ulfinni Waaqayyoos achi dhaabatee ture; innis ulfina ani Laga Kebaar biratti argee ture sana fakkaata; anis adda kootiin lafatti nan gombifame.
24 Then the spirit came into me and put me on my feet; and he had talk with me and said to me, Go and keep yourself shut up inside your house.
Ergasii Hafuurri anatti seenee miilla kootiin na dhaabachiise. Innis akkana jedhee natti dubbate: “Mana keetti galiitii ofitti cufi.
25 But see, O son of man, I will put bands on you, prisoning you in them, and you will not go out among them:
Yaa ilma namaa, isaan funyoodhaan si hidhu; ati akka uummata gidduu deemuu hin dandeenyeef ni hidhamta.
26 And I will make your tongue fixed to the roof of your mouth, so that you have no voice and may not make protests to them: for they are an uncontrolled people.
Isaan mana fincilaa taʼan iyyuu, ani akka ati hin dubbannee fi isaanitti dheekkamuu hin dandeenyeef arraba kee laagaa keetti nan maxxansa.
27 But when I have talk with you I will make your mouth open, and you are to say to them, This is what the Lord has said: Let the hearer give ear; and as for him who will not, let him keep his ears shut: for they are an uncontrolled people.
Ani yeroon sitti dubbadhutti garuu afaan kee siifan bana; atis, ‘Waaqayyo Gooftaan akkana jedha’ isaaniin jetta. Namni dhagaʼuu barbaadu kam iyyuu haa dhagaʼu; namni dhagaʼuu hin barbaanne kam iyyuu dhagaʼuu haa dhiisu; isaan mana fincilaadhaatii.
