< Ezekiel 18 >
1 A message from the Lord came to me, saying,
Oo haddana Eraygii Rabbiga ayaa ii yimid isagoo leh,
2 “What's this proverb you people are quoting about the country of Israel: ‘The fathers ate the unripe grapes, but their children got the sour taste’?
Maxaad ula jeeddaan markaad maahmaahdan dalka reer binu Israa'iil ugu maahmaahdaan, idinkoo leh, Aabbayaashu waxay cuneen canab dhanaan, oo carruurta ilkahoodiina way saliilyoodeen?
3 As I live, declares the Lord God, you won't quote this proverb in Israel any more.
Sayidka Rabbiga ahu wuxuu leeyahay, Noloshaydaan ku dhaartaye inaydaan mar dambe maahmaahdan dalka reer binu Israa'iil kaga dhex maahmaahi doonin.
4 Can't you see that everyone belongs to me? Whether parents or children, they are all mine. It's the person who sins who will die.
Bal eega, nafaha oo dhan anigaa iska leh, oo sida nafta aabbuhu ay taydii u tahay ayaa tan wiilkuna ay taydii u tahay, haddaba naftii dembaabtaa way dhiman doontaa.
5 Take the example of a man who is a good person, doing what is fair and right.
Laakiinse haddii nin xaq yahay oo uu waxa xaqa ah oo qumman sameeyo,
6 He doesn't go to the pagan shrines in the mountains to eat a religious meal, or worship Israel's idols. He doesn't have sex with someone else's wife or with a woman during her period.
oo uusan buuraha wax ku cunin, ama uusan indhihiisa sanamyada reer binu Israa'iil kor ugu taagin, ama uusan naagta deriskiisa nijaasayn, ama uusan naag xayl qabta u dhowaan,
7 He doesn't exploit anyone. He gives back what a debtor has given him as security. He doesn't rob others. He feeds the hungry and clothes the naked.
oo uusan cidna dulmin, laakiinse uu kii wax ka deyntay rahaamaddiisii u celiyey, oo uusan waxba xoog ku boobin, oo uu cuntadiisiina mid gaajaysan siiyey, oo uu kii qaawanna dhar huwiyey,
8 He doesn't lend with interest or make a profit from loans. He refuses to do wrong and makes sure he's truly fair in his decisions between people.
ama uusan korsaar wax ku bixin, oo uusan ribo cidna ka qaadan, oo uu yahay mid gacantiisa xumaanta dib uga celiya, oo si caddaalad ah ugu garsooray nin iyo nin kale,
9 He follows my rules and keeps my regulations faithfully. Such a man lives by what's right and he will certainly live, declares the Lord God.
oo uu qaynuunnadayda ku socday, oo uu xukummadayda u xajiyey si uu wax qumman u sameeyo, kaasu waa xaq, oo hubaal wuu noolaan doonaa, ayaa Sayidka Rabbiga ahu leeyahay.
10 What if that man has a son who is a violent criminal, who kills and does do such evil things just listed
Oo ninkaasu hadduu dhalo wiil tuug ah, oo gacankudhiigle ah, amase wax waxyaalahaas la mid ah sameeya,
11 even though the father doesn't act like that at all. The son goes to the pagan shrines in the mountains to eat a religious meal. He has sex with someone else's wife.
oo uusan waxyaalaha waajibka ku ah samayn, laakiinse uu buuraha wax ku cunay, oo uu naagtii deriskiisana nijaaseeyey,
12 He exploits the poor and those in need. He robs others, and he doesn't give back what a debtor has given him as security. He worships idols. He commits disgusting sins.
oo uu miskiinka iyo saboolka baahan dulmay, oo uu xoog wax ku boobay, oo uusan cidna rahaamad u celin, oo uu indhihiisana sanamyada kor ugu taagay, oo uu wax karaahiya ah sameeyey,
13 He lends with interest and makes a profit from loans. Is someone like this going to live? No, he won't! Because he has done all these offensive things, he will die for certain, and he will be responsible for his own death.
oo uu korsaar wax ku bixiyey, oo uu cid kale ribo ka qaatay, kaasu miyuu noolaanayaa? Isagu noolaan maayo, waayo, waxyaalahaas karaahiyada ah oo dhan ayuu sameeyey, hubaal wuu dhiman doonaa, oo dhiiggiisuna isaguu dul saarnaan doonaa.
14 Now what if this man has a son who sees all the sins his father has committed. He sees them but doesn't do the same.
Haddaba bal eeg, kaasu hadduu dhalo wiil dembigii aabbihiis sameeyey oo dhan arka, oo uu markaas cabsado, oo aan waxaas oo kale samayn,
15 He doesn't go to the pagan shrines in the mountains to eat a religious meal, or worship Israel's idols. He doesn't have sex with someone else's wife.
oo uusan buuraha wax ku cunin, ama uusan indhihiisa sanamyada reer binu Israa'iil kor ugu taagin, oo uusan naagta deriskiisa nijaasayn,
16 He doesn't exploit anyone. He doesn't demand security for a loan. He doesn't rob others. He feeds the hungry and clothes the naked.
ama uusan cidnaba dulmin, oo uusan rahaamadda qaadan, oo uusan waxba xoog ku boobin, laakiinse uu cuntadiisa kii gaajaysan siiyey, oo kii qaawanna dhar huwiyey,
17 He refuses to do wrong and does not charge interest or make a profit on loans. He keeps my regulations and follows my laws. A man like that won't die because of his father's sins, he will certainly live!
oo uu gacantiisana masaakiinta dib uga celiyey, oo uusan korsaar amase ribo cidna ka qaadan, oo uu xukummadayda sameeyey, oo uu qaynuunnadayda ku socday, kaasu xumaantii aabbihiis sameeyey aawadeed uma dhiman doono, hubaalse wuu noolaan doonaa.
18 But his father will die for his own sins, because he exploited others, robbed his relatives, and did wrong to his own people.
Laakiinse aabbihiis xumaantiisuu ku dhex dhiman doonaa, maxaa yeelay, isagu si nac weyn ayuu wax u dulmay, oo walaalkiisna xoog buu wax kaga boobay, oo dadkiisana wax aan wanaagsanayn buu ku dhex sameeyey.
19 You ask, ‘Why shouldn't the son pay for his father's sins?’ If the son has done what is fair and right, keeping all my laws, then he'll live, he won't be punished.
Laakiinse idinku waxaad tidhaahdaan, Wiilku muxuu u qaadan waayaa xumaantii aabbihiis? Wiilku hadduu sameeyo waxa xaqa ah oo qumman, oo uu qaynuunnadayda oo dhan xajiyey, oo uu wada sameeyey, hubaal wuu noolaan doonaa.
20 It's the person who sins who will die. A son won't pay for his father's sins, and a father won't pay for his son's sins. The good consequences of living right will come to those who are good; the evil consequences of wickedness will come to those who are evil.
Nafta dembaabtaa way dhiman doontaa. Wiilku ma uu qaadan doono xumaanta aabbaha, aabbuhuna ma uu qaadan doono xumaanta wiilka. Ka xaqa ah xaqnimadiisaa dul saarnaan doonta, oo ka sharka lehna sharnimadiisaa dul saarnaan doonta.
21 However, if someone who is wicked stops sinning and keeps my laws, doing what is fair and right, they will certainly live—they won't die.
Laakiinse ka sharka lihi hadduu dembiyadiisii uu sameeyey oo dhan ka soo noqdo, oo uu qaynuunnadayda oo dhan wada xajiyo, oo uu waxa xaqa ah oo qumman sameeyo, hubaal kaasu wuu noolaan doonaa, mana dhiman doono.
22 None of their sins will be held against them. Because they are now doing what's right, they will live.
Oo xadgudubyadiisii uu sameeyey oo dhan midna looma soo xusuusan doono. Wuxuu ku noolaan doonaa xaqnimadiisii uu sameeyey.
23 Do I like it when wicked people die? declares the Lord God. Of course not—I would be delighted if they stopped sinning and lived!
Sayidka Rabbiga ahu wuxuu leeyahay, Anigu miyaan innaba sharrowga dhimashadiisa ku farxaa? Sowse kama aan jecli inuu jidkiisa ka soo noqdo oo uu noolaado?
24 But if someone who is living according to what's right stops and does wrong, doing the same offensive things as the wicked, will that person live? Of course not! In fact, all the good things they did previously will be forgotten. That person will die because of their betrayal of me and the sins they've committed.
Laakiinse ka xaqa ahu hadduu xaqnimadiisa ka leexdo, oo uu xumaan sameeyo, oo uu wada sameeyo waxyaalaha karaahiyada ah ee uu sharrowgu sameeyo oo dhan, markaas miyuu sii noolaan doonaa? Waxyaalihii xaqa ahaa ee uu sameeyey oo dhan innaba lama soo xusuusan doono, oo wuxuu ku dhex dhiman doonaa xadgudubkiisii uu xadgudbay, iyo dembigiisii uu dembaabay.
25 Even so you say, ‘What the Lord does isn't right.’ People of Israel, listen to me! Is it what I'm doing that isn't right? Isn't it what you're doing that isn't right?
Laakiinse idinku waxaad tidhaahdaan, Sayidka jidkiisu ma qummana, haddaba reer binu Israa'iilow, bal i maqla. Sow jidkaygu ma qummana? Sow jidadkiinnu ma aha kuwa aan qummanaynu?
26 If someone who lives according to what's right stops doing right and does wrong, they will die. They will die because of wrong things they've done.
Marka ka xaqa ahu uu xaqnimadiisa ka leexdo, oo uu xumaan sameeyo, oo uu taas ku dhinto, wuxuu ku dhiman doonaa xumaantii uu sameeyey.
27 But if someone wicked stops doing wrong and does what is fair and right, they will save their life.
Haddaba sharrowgu markuu sharnimadiisii uu sameeyey ka soo noqdo, oo uu waxa xaqa ah ee qumman sameeyo, markaasuu naftiisa badbaadin doonaa.
28 Because they thought about it and gave up their wicked ways, they will certainly live—they won't die.
Isagu wuu fiirsadaa, oo xadgudubyadiisii uu sameeyey oo dhan wuu ka soo noqdaa, oo sidaas aawadeed hubaal wuu noolaan doonaa, mana dhiman doono.
29 But the people of Israel say, ‘The Lord's way isn't right.’ Are my ways unfair, people of Israel? Isn't it your ways that aren't fair?
Laakiinse reer binu Israa'iil waxay yidhaahdaan, Sayidka jidkiisu ma qummana. Reer binu Israa'iilow, sow jidadkaygu ma qummana? Sow jidadkiinnu ma aha kuwa aan qummanaynu?
30 Consequently I'm going to judge you, people of Israel! I will judge each of you depending on what you've done, declares the Lord God. Repent and stop rebelling so that your sins won't bring you down.
Sidaas daraaddeed Sayidka Rabbiga ahu wuxuu leeyahay, Reer binu Israa'iilow, anigu midkiin kastaba waxaan u xukumi doonaa siday jidadkiisu ahaayeen. Haddaba soo noqda, oo xadgudubyadiinnii oo dhan ka soo noqda, si ayan xumaantu halligaaddiinnii u noqon.
31 Get rid of all your rebellious sins! Change your way of thinking and have a new spirit. Why do you want to die, people of Israel?
Xadgudubyadiinnii aad xadgudubteen oo dhan iska xoora, oo waxaad yeelataan qalbi cusub iyo ruux cusub, waayo, reer binu Israa'iilow, bal maxaad u dhimanaysaan?
32 I don't like it when anybody dies, declares the Lord God. So repent so you can live!”
Waayo, Sayidka Rabbiga ahu wuxuu leeyahay, Anigu innaba kii dhinta dhimashadiisa kuma farxo, haddaba soo noqda oo noolaada.
