Ezekiel 4
1 And thou, O son of man, take thee a tile, and lay it before thee: and draw upon it the plan of the city of Jerusalem.
Ary ianao, ry zanak’ olona, makà kapila tanimanga, ary apetraho eo anoloanao, dia manorata sarin-tanàna eo aminy, dia sarin’ i Jerosalema;
2 And lay siege against it, and build forts, and cast up a mount, and set a camp against it, and place battering rams round about it.
ary ataovy fahirano izy, ka manaova tilikambo hamelezana azy, ary manandrata tovon-tany manodidina azy; ary asio toby hamelezana azy, ary asio lohondry vy fandravana manodidina azy.
3 And take unto thee an iron pan, and set it for a wall of iron between thee and the city: and set thy face resolutely against it, and it shall be besieged, and thou shalt lay siege against it: it is a sign to the house of Israel.
Ary makà lapoely, ka ataovy manda vy eo anelanelanao sy ny tanàna, dia banjino tsara io, ary aoka hatao fahirano, eny, aoka hataonao fahirano io. Famantarana ho amin’ ny taranak’ Isiraely izany.
4 And thou shalt sleep upon thy left side, and shalt lay the iniquities of the house of Israel upon it, according to the number of the days that thou shalt sleep upon it, and thou shalt take upon thee their iniquity.
Ary ataovy ambany mandry ny ilanao ankavia, ka ataovy eo aminy ny fahotan’ ny taranak’ Isiraely; koa araka ny isan’ ny andro handrianao toy izany no hitondranao ny helony.
5 And I have laid upon 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.
Fa Izaho dia manao fetr’ andro ho anao mitovy amin’ ny taonan’ ny helony, dia sivi-folo amby telon-jato andro, ka ho entinao ny heloky ny taranak’ Isiraely.
6 And when thou hast accomplished this, thou shalt sleep again upon thy right side, and thou shalt take upon thee the iniquity of the house of Juda forty days: a day for it year, yea, a day for a year I have appointed to thee.
Ary rehefa tapitrao ireo, dia ataovy ambany mandry kosa ny ilanao ankavanana, ary aoka hitondra ny heloky ny taranak’ i Joda efa-polo andro ianao; ny indray andro no nataoko solon’ ny herintaona ho anao.
7 And thou shalt turn thy face to the siege of Jerusalem, and thy arm shall be stretched out: and thou shalt prophesy against it.
Dia banjino tsara io fahirano an’ i Jerosalema io, ary aoka hiseho sandry ianao ka haminany hamely azy.
8 Behold I have encompassed thee with bands: and thou shalt not turn thyself from one side to the other, till thou hast ended the days of thy siege.
Ary, indro, hafatotro ianao ka tsy hahavadi-mandry ambara-pahatapitrao ny andron’ ny fahiranonao.
9 And take to thee wheat and barley, and beans, and lentils, and millet, and fitches, and put them in one vessel, and make thee bread thereof according to the number of the days that thou shalt lie upon thy side: three hundred and ninety days shalt thou eat thereof.
Ary mangalà vary tritika sy vary hordea sy tsaramaso sy voanemba sy ampemby sy spelta ianao, ary ataovy am-bilia iray ireo, ka anaovy mofo ho anao; araka ny isan’ ny andro izay handrianao amin’ ny ilanao, dia sivi-folo amby telon-jato andro, no hihinananao azy.
10 And thy meat that thou shalt eat, shall be in weight twenty staters a day: from time to time thou shalt eat it.
Ary an-danjany no hihinananao ny haninao, dia roa-polo sekely isan’ andro; asio elanelany ny fihinanao azy.
11 And thou shalt drink water by measure, the sixth part of a hin: from time to time thou shalt drink it,
Ary rano afàtra no hosotroinao, dia ampahenin’ ny hina; asio elanelany koa ny fisotronao azy.
12 And thou shalt eat it as barley bread baked under the ashes: and thou shalt cover it, in their sight, with the dung that cometh out of a man.
Ary hatao toy ny mofo vary hordea no ho fihinanao azy, ary diky no hataonao kitay hanendasanao azy eo imasony.
13 And the Lord said: So shall the children of Israel Beat their bread all filthy among the nations whither I will cast them out.
Ary hoy Jehovah: Toy izany no hihinanan’ ny zanak’ Isiraely ny mofony voaloto any amin’ ny firenena izay handroahako azy.
14 And I said: Ah, ah, ah, O Lord God, behold my soul hath not been defiled, and from my infancy even till now, I have not eaten any thing that died of itself, or was torn by beasts, and no unclean flesh hath entered into my mouth.
Dia hoy izaho: Indrisy Jehovah Tompo ô, indro tsy voaloto ny fanahiko; fa hatry ny fony aho mbola tanora ka mandraka ankehitriny dia tsy mba nihinana izay fatin-javatra na izay noviraviraim-biby akory aho; ary tsy mbola nikasika ny vavako akory izay nofo fahavetavetana.
15 And he said to me: Behold I have given thee neat’s dung for man’s dung, and thou shalt make thy bread therewith.
Dia hoy Izy tamiko: Indro, tain’ omby no omeko anao hisolo ny dity, ka izany no hataonao kitay hanendasanao ny mofonao.
16 And he said to me: Son of man: Behold, I will break in pieces the staff of bread in Jerusalem: and they shall eat bread by weight, and with care: and they shall drink water by measure, and in distress.
Ary hoy koa Izy tamiko: Ry zanak’ olona, indro, hotapahiko any Jerosalema ny mofo, tohan’ aina, ka an-danjany amin’ ny fanahiana no hihinanany mofo; ary rano afàtra no hosotroiny amin’ ny fahatahorana.
17 So that when bread and water fail, every man may fall against his brother, and they may pine away in their iniquities.
Ka dia ho mosare-mofo sy rano izy, ary samy ho raiki-tahotra sady hihalevona noho ny helony.
