< Ezekiel 24 >
1 And the word of the Lord came to me, in the ninth year, in the tenth month, on the tenth day of the month, saying:
Tarik apar, dwe mar apar, e higa mar ochiko, wach Jehova Nyasaye nobirona kama:
2 “Son of man, write for yourself the name of this day, on which the king of Babylon was confirmed against Jerusalem today.
Wuod dhano, ndik tarigni piny, nikech ruodh Babulon oseluoro Jerusalem kawuononi.
3 And you shall speak, through a proverb, a parable to the inciting house. And you shall say to them: Thus says the Lord God: Set out a cooking pot; set it out, I say, and put water into it.
Gone oganda mohero ngʼanyoni ngeroni, kendo wach nigi ni ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto wacho: “‘Ket aguch tedo e kendo; kendo iol pi e iye.
4 Pile together within it every morsel, every good piece, the thigh and the shoulder, the choice pieces and those full of bones.
Ket ringʼo mosengʼadi matindo tindo e iye, ringʼo machwe duto; ma gin em gi bat. Pongʼe gi choke machwe duto;
5 Take the fattest from the flock, and arrange also a heap of bones under it. Its cooking has boiled over, and its bones in its midst have been thoroughly cooked.
kendo yier chiayo mopugno mogik ei kweth. Chan yiende mabeyo e bwoye ni chokego; eka chwakeuru maber, mondo ochiegi maber nyak choke.
6 Because of this, thus says the Lord God: Woe to the city of blood, to the cooking pot that has rust in it, and whose rust has not gone out of it! Cast it out piece by piece! No lot has fallen upon it.
“‘Nikech ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto wacho: “‘Okwongʼ dala maduongʼ michweroe remo, ma en agulu motimo chilo, agulu ma chinde ok bi rumo. Goluru ringʼo duto e iye achiel kachiel ma ok uweyo moro e iye kata matin.
7 For her blood is in her midst; she has shed it upon the smoothest rock. She has not shed it upon the ground, so that it could be covered with dust.
“‘Nikech remo mane ochwero ni kuome: ne oole e lwanda nono; ne ok oole e lowo, kama buru ne nyalo ume.
8 So shall I bring my indignation over her, and take my vengeance. I have presented her blood upon the smoothest rock, so that it would not be covered.
An bende aseweyo rembeno ewi lwandano ma ok oume mondo owangʼ iya, mi achul kuor.
9 Because of this, thus says the Lord God: Woe to the city of blood, out of which I will make a great funeral pyre.
“‘Kuom mano, ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto owacho: “‘Okwongʼ dala maduongʼ machwero remo! An bende abiro chanone yiende modhi malo.
10 Pile together the bones, which I will burn with fire. The flesh shall be consumed, and the entire composition shall be boiled, and the bones shall deteriorate.
Omiyo chan yien kendo imok mach. Ted ringʼono maber, kiriwe gi apilo; kendo ne ni chokegi otedore maber.
11 Also, place it empty on burning coals, so that it may be heated, and its brass may melt. And let the filth of it be melted in its midst, and let its rust be consumed.
Eka iketi agulu ma iye ninono ewi makaa mi odok maliet kendo nyinje lokre makwar, mondo omi chilone duto oleny oko kendo chinde wangʼ marum.
12 There has been much sweat and labor, and yet its extensive rust has not gone out of it, not even by fire.
Asetemo konye motamore; chilo momoko kuome pek ma ok wuogi, kata wangʼ gi mach.
13 Your uncleanness is execrable. For I wanted to cleanse you, and you have not been cleansed from your filth. So then, neither will you be cleansed before I cause my indignation over you to cease.
“‘Timbeni mag chode osemiyo ibet modwanyore. Ne atemo luoki, to ne ok inyal bedo maler, koro ok ibi bedo maler nyaka mirimba mochomi rum.
14 I, the Lord, have spoken. It shall happen, and I will act. I will not pass over, nor be lenient, nor be placated. I will judge you according to your ways and according to your intentions, says the Lord.”
“‘An Jehova Nyasaye ema asewacho kamano. Sa osechopo mondo ati tija monego atim. Ok abi kechi; ok abi ngʼwononi, bende ok abi lokora. Ibiro ngʼadni bura kaluwore gi timbeni gi yoreni, Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto ema owacho.’”
15 And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
Wach Jehova Nyasaye nobirona kama:
16 “Son of man, behold, I am taking away from you, with a stroke, the desire of your eyes. And you shall not lament, and you shall not weep. And your tears shall not flow down.
“Wuod dhano, abiro mayi ngʼat ma chunyi ohero ahinya apoya nono. Kik ingʼur, kik iywagi bende pi wangʼi kik chwer.
17 Groan silently; you shall make no mourning for the dead. Let the band of your crown be on you, and let your shoes be on your feet. And you shall not cover your face, nor shall you eat the food of those who mourn.”
Chunyi to inyalo omo aoma mos, to kik itim timbe mag ywak kaka wuotho gi wich nono, wuotho gi tielo nono maonge wuoche bende kik ium lela wangʼi kendo kik icham chiemb liel.”
18 Therefore, I spoke to the people in the morning. And my wife died in the evening. And in the morning, I did just as he had instructed me.
Omiyo ne awuoyo gi ji gokinyi, to godhiambono chiega notho. Kinyne gokinyi ne atimo kaka ne osechika mondo atim.
19 And the people said to me: “Why won’t you explain to us what these things signify, which you are doing?”
Eka ji nopenja niya, “Donge inyalo nyisowae yo ma gik mitimogi omakowago?”
20 And I said to them: “The word of the Lord came to me, saying:
Omiyo ne awachonegi niya, “Wach Jehova Nyasaye nobirona kama:
21 ‘Speak to the house of Israel: Thus says the Lord God: Behold, I will defile my sanctuary, the pride of your realm, and the desire of your eyes, and the dread of your soul. Your sons and your daughters, whom you have forsaken, will fall by the sword.’
Wachne dhood Israel ni, ‘Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto owacho: Achiegni ketho kara maler mar lemo ma en kama sungau nitie, momako wengeu, kendo muhero gi lala. Yawuotu gi nyiu muweyo chien biro podho e dho ligangla.
22 And so, you shall do just as I have done. You shall not cover your faces, and you shall not eat the food of those who mourn.
Ubiro timo kaka asetimo. Ok ubi umo lela wengeu kata chamo chiemb liel.
23 You shall have crowns on your heads, and shoes on your feet. You shall not lament, and you shall not weep. Instead, you will waste away in your iniquities, and each one will groan to his brother.
Ubiro rwako arwaka kilembau ewiu kaka pile, kod pat pat magu e tiendeu. Ok ubi ywak kata goyo nduru, to chira biro makou kendo ubiro chur nikech richou.
24 ‘And Ezekiel shall be a portent for you. In accord with all that he has done, so shall you do, when this will happen. And you shall know that I am the Lord God.’”
Ezekiel biro bedonu ranyisi; ubiro timo mana kaka osetimo. Ka mano otimore to ubiro ngʼeyo ni An e Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto.’
25 “And as for you, son of man, behold, in the day when I will take away from them their strength, and the joy of their dignity, and the desire of their eyes, in which their souls find rest: their sons and their daughters,
“To in, wuod dhano, chiengʼ ma anamagie ohinga margi, gi morgi kod duongʼ-gi; bende anamagi gima wengegi omokeno, kendo ma chunygi ohero gi lala; kaachiel gi yawuotgi kod nyigi.
26 in that day, when one who is fleeing will come to you, so that he may report to you,
Odiechiengno em ngʼat ma notony nobi iri kendo nonyisi gik mosetimore.
27 in that day, I say, your mouth shall be opened to him who has fled. And you shall speak, and you shall no longer be silent. And you shall be for them a portent. And you shall know that I am the Lord.”
To dhogi noyawre sa nogono; mi iniwuo kode kendo ok inilingʼ. Kuom mano, inibednegi ranyisi, kendo giningʼe ni An e Jehova Nyasaye.”
