Ezekiel 4
1 And thou, son of man, take thee a brick, and lay it before thee, and portray upon it a city, — Jerusalem:
“Yanzu, ɗan mutum, ka ɗauki tubalin yumɓu, ka ajiye shi a gabanka ka kuma zāna birnin Urushalima a kansa.
2 and lay siege against it, and build forts against it, and cast a mound against it, and set camps against it, and place battering-rams against it round about.
Sa’an nan ka yi mata ƙawanya. Ka kafa mata katangar ƙawanya, ka gina katangar da ɗan tudu ka kewaye ta da dundurusai.
3 And take thou unto thee an iron plate, and put it [for] a wall of iron between thee and the city; and set thy face against it, and it shall be besieged, and thou shalt lay siege against it: this shall be a sign to the house of Israel.
Sa’an nan ka ɗauki kwanon ƙarfe, ka shirya shi kamar katangar ƙarfe tsakaninka da birnin ka kuma zuba mata ido. Za tă kasance a ƙarƙashin ƙawanya, kai kuwa za ka yi mata ƙawanya. Wannan zai zama alama ga gidan Isra’ila.
4 And thou, lie upon thy left side, and lay the iniquity of the house of Israel upon it: the number of the days that thou liest upon it, thou shalt bear their iniquity.
“Sa’an nan ka kwanta a hagunka ka kuma sa zunubin gidan Isra’ila a kanka. Za ka ɗauki zunubinsu na waɗansu kwanakin da kake kwance a gefenka.
5 And I have appointed thee the years of their iniquity, according to the number of the days, three hundred and ninety days; and thou shalt bear the iniquity of the house of Israel.
Na ɗora maka kwanaki bisa ga shekarun zunubinsu. Saboda haka cikin kwana 390 za ka ɗauki zunubin gidan Isra’ila.
6 And when thou hast accomplished them, thou shalt lie again on thy right side, and thou shalt bear the iniquity of the house of Judah forty days: I have appointed thee each day for a year.
“Bayan ka gama haka, ka sāke kwantawa, a wannan lokaci a gefen damarka, ka kuma ɗauki zunubin gidan Yahuda. Na ɗora maka kwanaki 40, kwana guda a madadin shekara guda.
7 And thou shalt set thy face toward the siege of Jerusalem, and thine arm shall be uncovered, and thou shalt prophesy against it.
Ka juya fuskarka wajen ƙawanyar Urushalima da hannunka a buɗe ka yi annabci a kanta.
8 And behold, I lay bands upon thee, and thou shalt not turn thyself from one side to the other, till thou hast ended the days of thy siege.
Zan ɗaura ka da igiyoyi don kada ka juya daga wannan gefe zuwa wani gefe sai ka gama kwanakin ƙawanyarka.
9 And thou, take unto thee wheat, and barley, and beans, and lentils, and millet, and spelt, and put them in one vessel, and make thee bread thereof, [according to] the number of the days that thou liest upon thy side: three hundred and ninety days shalt thou eat thereof.
“Ka ɗauki alkama da sha’ir, wake da acca, gero da maiwa; ka sa su a tulun ajiya ka kuma yi amfani da su don yin burodi wa kanka. Za ka ci shi a kwanaki 390 da za ka kwanta a gefenka.
10 And thy meat which thou shalt eat shall be by weight, twenty shekels a day: from time to time shalt thou eat it.
Ka auna shekel ashirin na abinci don kowace rana ka kuma ci shi a ƙayyadadden lokaci.
11 And thou shalt drink water by measure, the sixth part of a hin: from time to time shalt thou drink.
Haka ma ka auna kashi ɗaya bisa shida na garwan ruwa ka sha shi a ƙayyadadden lokaci.
12 And thou shalt eat it [as] barley-cake, and thou shalt bake it in their sight with dung that cometh out of man.
Ka ci abinci yadda za ka ci ƙosai sha’ir, ka gasa shi a gaban mutane, ka yi amfani da najasar mutane kamar itacen wuta.”
13 And Jehovah said, So shall the children of Israel eat their bread unclean among the nations whither I will drive them.
Ubangiji ya ce, “Ta haka mutanen Isra’ila za su ci ƙazantaccen abinci a cikin al’ummai inda zan kore su in kai.”
14 Then said I, Ah, Lord Jehovah! behold, my soul hath not been defiled, and from my youth up even until now have I not eaten of that which dieth of itself, or of that which is torn; neither came there abominable flesh into my mouth.
Sai na ce, “Ba haka ba ne, Ubangiji Mai Iko Duka! Ban taɓa ƙazantar da kaina ba. Daga ƙuruciyata har zuwa yanzu ban taɓa cin wani abin da aka samu ya mutu ko abin da namun jeji suka kashe ba. Ba nama marar tsabtan da ya taɓa shiga bakina.”
15 And he said unto me, See, I have given thee cow's dung for man's dung, and thou shalt prepare thy bread therewith.
Sai ya ce, “To da kyau, zan bari ka gasa burodin a kan kashin shanu a maimakon najasar mutane.”
16 And he said unto me, Son of man, behold, I break the staff of bread in Jerusalem; and they shall eat bread by weight, and with anxiety; and they shall drink water by measure, and with astonishment:
Sa’an nan ya ce mini, “Ɗan mutum, zan yanke tanadin abinci a Urushalima. Mutane za su auna abincin da za su ci da tsoro su kuma auna ruwan da za su sha cikin fargaba,
17 because bread and water shall fail them, and they shall be astonied one with another, and waste away in their iniquity.
domin abinci da ruwa za su kāsa. Za su damu da ganin juna za su kuma lalace saboda zunubinsu.
