< Ezekiel 7 >
1 And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
Okwu Onyenwe anyị ruru m ntị, sị,
2 And you, son of man, say, This is what the Lord has said to the land of Israel: An end has come, the end has come on the four quarters of the land.
“Ma gị onwe gị, Nwa nke mmadụ, nke a bụ ihe Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị sịrị ala Izrel: “‘Ọgwụgwụ! Ọgwụgwụ abịakwasịla akụkụ anọ nke ala ahụ.
3 Now the end has come on you, and I will send my wrath on you, judging you for your ways, I will send punishment on you for all your disgusting acts.
Ugbu a ka ọgwụgwụ bịakwasịrị unu. Lee, aga m eme ka iwe m bịakwasị unu; aga m ekpe unu ikpe dịka omume unu si dị, aga m ata unu ahụhụ maka arụ unu niile.
4 My eye will not have mercy on you, and I will have no pity: but I will send the punishment of your ways on you, and your disgusting works will be among you: and you will be certain that I am the Lord.
Agaghị m enwekwa ọmịiko nʼebe ị nọ, agaghị m emekwara gị ebere, kama aga m ata unu ahụhụ maka omume unu na arụ niile dị nʼetiti unu. “‘Mgbe ahụ, unu ga-amata na mụ onwe m bụ Onyenwe anyị.’
5 This is what the Lord has said: An evil, even one evil; see, it is coming.
“Nke a bụ ihe Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị sịrị, “‘Oke mbibi, oke mbibi nke a na-anụbeghị ụdị ya mbụ. Lee, ka ọ na-abịa.
6 An end has come, the end has come; see, it is coming on you.
Ọgwụgwụ abịala! Ọgwụgwụ abịala! Ọ kpalitela onwe ya imegide unu. Lee, ka ọ na-abịa!
7 The crowning time has come on you, O people of the land: the time has come, the day is near; the day will not be slow in coming, it will not keep back.
Oke nsogbu abịakwasịla gị, gị onwe gị bi nʼala ahụ. Oge ahụ abịala! Ụbọchị ahụ dịkwa nso! Ọgbaaghara dị ebe niile, ọ bụghị ọṅụ dị nʼelu ugwu niile.
8 Now, in a little time, I will let loose my passion on you, and give full effect to my wrath against you, judging you for your ways, and sending punishment on you for all your disgusting works.
Ejikerela m ịwụkwasị gị ọnụma m nʼahụ mee ka oke iwe m zuo gị ahụ niile. Aga m ekpe gị ikpe dịka omume gị si dị, kwụghachikwa gị nʼihi ibi ndụ rụrụ arụ gị niile.
9 My eye will not have mercy, and I will have no pity: I will send on you the punishment of your ways, and your disgusting works will be among you; and you will see that I am the Lord who gives punishment.
Agaghị m emere gị ebere, agakwaghị m ahapụ ịta gị ahụhụ. Aga m akwụghachi gị dịka omume gị si dị, kwụghachikwa gị nʼihi ibi ndụ rụrụ arụ niile nke dị nʼetiti unu. “‘Mgbe ahụ, ị ga-amata na ọ bụ mụ onwe m bụ Onyenwe anyị, na-eti unu ihe ndị a.
10 See, the day; see, it is coming: the crowning time has gone out; the twisted way is flowering, pride has put out buds.
“‘Lee, ụbọchị ahụ! Lee, ka ọ na-abịa! Oke nsogbu enupụtala, mkpanaka agbala okoko nganga amaala ifuru!
11 Violent behaviour has been lifted up into a rod of evil; it will not be slow in coming, it will not keep back.
Ihe ike ebilitala, mkpọrọ eji ata ndị ajọ omume ahụhụ. O nweghị onye ọbụla nʼime ha nke ga-afọdụ, maọbụ igwe mmadụ maọbụ ụba ha, o nweghịkwa nke bara uru.
12 The time has come, the day is near: let not him who gives a price for goods be glad, or him who gets the price have sorrow:
Mgbe ahụ abịala! Ụbọchị ahụ abịakwala nso. Ka onye na-azụ ahịa ghara ịṅụrị ọṅụ ka onye na-ere ere ghara iru ụjụ, nʼihi na ọnụma ahụ dịrị igwe mmadụ niile.
13 For the trader will not go back to the things for which he had his price, even while he is still living:
Onye rere ahịa agaghị enwetaghachi ngwa ahịa nke erere ere ọ bụladị dịka onye rere na onye zụrụ na-adị ndụ. Nʼihi na ọhụ nke a gbasara igwe mmadụ niile bụ nke a na-apụghị ịgbanwe. Nʼihi mmehie ha niile, o nweghị onye nʼime ha nke pụrụ ichebe ndụ ya.
14 And he who has given a price for goods will not get them, for my wrath is on all of them.
“‘Ha afụọla opi ike, ha edoziela ihe niile ma o nweghị onye ga-aga ibu agha nʼihi na ọnụma m dịkwasịrị igwe mmadụ ahụ niile.
15 Outside is the sword, and inside disease and need of food: he who is in the open country will be put to the sword; he who is in the town will come to his end through need of food and disease.
Mma agha dị nʼezi; ajọ ọrịa na-efe efe na ụnwụ dịkwa nʼime. Onye nọ nʼọhịa ga-anwụ site na mma agha, ndị nọ nʼime obodo ukwu ka ụnwụ na ọrịa na-efe efe ga-eripịa.
16 And those of them who get away safely will go and be in the secret places like the doves of the valleys, all of them will come to death, every one in his sin.
Ma ndị gbapụrụ agbapụ ga-agbaga nọrọ nʼugwu. Ọ bụ dịka nduru nke ndagwurugwu, ha niile ga-asụ ude akwa, onye ọbụla nʼihi mmehie ha.
17 All hands will be feeble and all knees without strength, like water.
Aka niile ga-akụda, ikpere niile ka a ga-eji amịrị nyụdee.
18 And they will put haircloth round them, and deep fear will be covering them; and shame will be on all faces, and the hair gone from all their heads.
Ha ga-eyikwasị akwa mkpe, oke ihe egwu ga-ekpuchi ha. Ọ bụkwa ihu niile ka ihere ga-ekpuchi, a ga-akpụchakwa isi niile.
19 They will put out their silver into the streets, and their gold will be as an unclean thing; their silver and their gold will not be able to keep them safe in the day of the wrath of the Lord; they will not get their desire or have food for their need: because it has been the cause of their falling into sin.
“‘Ha ga-etufu ọlaọcha ha niile nʼokporoụzọ niile, ọlaedo ha ga-aghọkwa ihe na-adịghị ọcha. Ọlaọcha na ọlaedo ha agaghị enwe ike napụta ha nʼụbọchị nrubiga oke nke oke iwe Onyenwe anyị. Ha agaghị eme ka agụ gharakwa ịgụ ha, maọbụ mee ka afọ ju ha, nʼihi na ọ bụụrụ ha ihe ịsọ ngọngọ nke ịdaba na mmehie.
20 As for their beautiful ornament, they had put it on high, and had made the images of their disgusting and hated things in it: for this cause I have made it an unclean thing to them.
Ihe ịchọ mma ha ghọọrọ ha ihe ịkpa nganga, ha jikwa ya mepụta arụsị rụrụ arụ ha dị iche iche. Ha ji ya metakwa oyiyi ihe arụ niile jọgburu onwe ya; ya mere, aga m eme ka ọ bụụrụ ha ihe rụrụ arụ.
21 And I will give it into the hands of men from strange lands who will take it by force, and to the evil-doers of the earth to have for themselves; and they will make it unholy.
Aga m ewere akụnụba ha nye ndị mba ọzọ dịka ihe apụnatara nʼagha, nyekwa ya ndị ajọ omume nke ụwa dịka ihe nkwata ndị ga-emerụ ya.
22 And my face will be turned away from them, and they will make my secret place unholy: violent men will go into it and make it unholy.
Aga m esite nʼebe ha nọ wezuga ihu m ndị ohi ga-emerụkwa ebe ahụ m kpọrọ ihe dị oke ọnụahịa. Ha ga-abata nʼime ya merụọkwa ya.
23 Make the chain: for the land is full of crimes of blood, and the town is full of violent acts.
“‘Kwadoonụ ụdọ igwe. Nʼihi na ala ha jupụtara nʼigbu ọchụ na ịwụsa ọbara, obodo ahụ jupụtara nʼihe ike.
24 For this reason I will send the worst of the nations and they will take their houses for themselves: I will make the pride of their strength come to an end; and their holy places will be made unclean.
Aga m akpọta mba ndị ahụ jọgburu onwe ha ka ha bịa nwetara onwe ha ụlọ ha niile. Aga m eme ka mpako nke ndị bụ dike kwụsị, meekwa ka ebe nsọ ha niile bụrụ ebe e merụrụ emerụ.
25 Shaking fear is coming; and they will be looking for peace, and there will be no peace.
Mgbe ihe mmekpa ahụ bịara, ha ga-achọ udo ma o nweghị nke ga-adị.
26 Destruction will come on destruction, and one story after another; and the vision of the prophet will be shamed, and knowledge of the law will come to an end among the priests, and wisdom among the old.
Mbibi ga-esochi mbibi, akụkọ na-enweghị isi ga-esochikwa akụkọ na-enweghị isi. Ha ga-agagharị na-achọ ọhụ site nʼaka onye amụma, ntụziaka onye nchụaja ga-akwụsị, ndụmọdụ nke ndị okenye agaghị adịkwa.
27 The king will give himself up to sorrow, and the ruler will be clothed with wonder, and the hands of the people of the land will be troubled: I will give them punishment for their ways, judging them as it is right for them to be judged; and they will be certain that I am the Lord.
Eze ga-eru ụjụ, nwa eze ga-eyikwasị ịda mba nke obi dịka uwe, aka ga-ama ndị ala ahụ niile jijiji nʼihi egwu. Aga m emeso ha dịka omume ha si dị, aga m ekpekwa ha ikpe dịka ihe ha kwenyeere si dị. “‘Mgbe ahụ, ha ga-amata na mụ onwe m bụ Onyenwe anyị.’”
