< Ezekiel 23 >
1 A message from the Lord came to me, saying,
Ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa tọ̀ mí wá:
2 “Son of man, there were once two women. They were daughters of the same mother.
“Ọmọ ènìyàn, obìnrin méjì wà, ọmọ ìyá kan náà.
3 They became prostitutes in Egypt. In fact, they were prostitutes from the time they were young. They allowed their virgin breasts to be fondled and their nipples squeezed.
Wọn ń ṣe panṣágà ní Ejibiti, wọn ń ṣe panṣágà láti ìgbà èwe wọn. Ní ilẹ̀ yẹn ni wọn ti fi ọwọ́ pa ọyàn wọn, níbẹ̀ ni wọn sì fọwọ́ pa igbá àyà èwe wọn.
4 The older girl was called Oholah, and her sister Oholibah. I married them both and they had sons and daughters. Oholah represents Samaria, and Oholibah represents Jerusalem.
Èyí ẹ̀gbọ́n ń jẹ́ Ohola, àbúrò rẹ̀ sì ń jẹ́ Oholiba. Tèmi ni wọ́n, wọ́n sì bí àwọn ọmọkùnrin àti àwọn ọmọbìnrin. Ohola ni Samaria, Oholiba sì ni Jerusalẹmu.
5 Oholah prostituted herself while she was still married to me. She wanted to have sex with her lovers, the Assyrians.
“Ohola ń ṣe panṣágà nígbà tí ó sì jẹ́ tèmi; Ó sì ṣe ìfẹ́kúfẹ̀ẹ́ sí àwọn olólùfẹ́ rẹ̀, àwọn jagunjagun ará Asiria.
6 They were soldiers dressed in blue, leaders and commanders, all of them handsome young men in the cavalry.
Aṣọ aláró ni a fi wọ̀ wọ́n, àwọn gómìnà àti àwọn balógun, gbogbo wọn jẹ́ ọ̀dọ́mọkùnrin arẹwà àwọn tí ń gun ẹṣin.
7 She gave away herself sexually to all the important men of Assyria. She made herself unclean by her worship of all the idols of those men she wanted to have sex with.
O fi ara rẹ̀ fún gbajúmọ̀ ọkùnrin Asiria gẹ́gẹ́ bí panṣágà obìnrin, o fi òrìṣà gbogbo àwọn tí ó ní ìfẹ́kúfẹ̀ẹ́ sí i sọ ara rẹ̀ di aláìmọ́,
8 She didn't stop her prostitution that she started in Egypt—men sleeping with her when she was young, squeezing her virgin breasts and using her to satisfy their sexual appetite.
kò fi ìwà panṣágà tí ó ti bẹ̀rẹ̀, ni Ejibiti sílẹ̀, ní ìgbà èwe rẹ̀ àwọn ọkùnrin n bá a sùn, wọn fi ọwọ́ pa àyà èwe rẹ̀ lára wọn sì ń ṣe ìfẹ́kúfẹ̀ẹ́ sí i.
9 So I handed her over to her lovers, the Assyrians she wanted to have sex with.
“Nítorí náà mo fi i sílẹ̀ fún àwọn olólùfẹ́ rẹ̀, ará Asiria, tí ó ní ìfẹ́kúfẹ̀ẹ́ sí i.
10 They stripped her naked, took away her sons and daughters, and killed her with the sword. She became infamous among women, and they punished her.
Wọ́n bọ́ ọ sí ìhòhò, wọ́n sì gba àwọn ọmọkùnrin àti ọmọbìnrin rẹ̀ wọn sì pa wọn pẹ̀lú idà. Ó di ẹni ìfisọ̀rọ̀ sọ láàrín àwọn obìnrin wọ́n sì fi ìyà jẹ ẹ́.
11 Oholibah saw what happened to her sister, but she became even worse than her in her wanting sex and practicing prostitution.
“Àbúrò rẹ̀ Oholiba rí èyí, síbẹ̀ nínú ìfẹ́kúfẹ̀ẹ́ àti panṣágà rẹ̀, Ó ba ara rẹ jẹ́ ju ẹ̀gbọ́n rẹ̀ lọ.
12 She also wanted to have sex with the Assyrians: their leaders and commanders, their splendidly-dressed soldiers—all of them handsome young men in the cavalry.
Òun náà ní ìfẹ́kúfẹ̀ẹ́ sí ará Asiria àwọn gómìnà àti àwọn balógun, jagunjagun nínú aṣọ ogun, àwọn tí ń gun ẹṣin, gbogbo àwọn ọ̀dọ́mọkùnrin arẹwà.
13 I saw that she had also made herself unclean—both sisters were doing the same thing.
Mo rí i pé òun náà ba ara rẹ̀ jẹ́; àwọn méjèèjì rìn ojú ọ̀nà kan náà.
14 However, Oholibah's prostitution was even worse. She saw pictures of Babylonian soldiers wearing bright red uniforms painted on the wall.
“Ṣùgbọ́n ó tẹ̀síwájú nínú ṣíṣe panṣágà. O ri àwòrán àwọn ọkùnrin lára ògiri, àwòrán àwọn ara Kaldea àwòrán pupa,
15 They were wearing belts on their waists and large turbans on their heads. They all looked like Babylonian officers in Chaldea, the country where they were born.
pẹ̀lú ìgbànú ni ìdí wọn àti àwọn ìgbàrí ni orí wọn; gbogbo wọn dàbí olórí kẹ̀kẹ́ ogun Babeli ọmọ ìlú Kaldea.
16 When she saw the paintings of them, she wanted to have sex with them and sent messengers to them in Chaldea.
Ní kété tí ó rí wọn, ó ní ìfẹ́kúfẹ̀ẹ́ sí wọn, ó sì rán oníṣẹ́ sí wọn ni Kaldea.
17 The Babylonians came to her and her love bed, and made her unclean with their sexual desire. However, after she had been dishonored by them, she rejected them in disgust.
Àwọn ará Babeli wá sọ́dọ̀ rẹ̀, lórí ibùsùn ìfẹ́, nínú ìfẹ́kúfẹ̀ẹ́ wọn, wọ́n bà á jẹ́. Lẹ́yìn ìgbà tí wọ́n bà á jẹ́ tán, ó yípadà kúrò lọ́dọ̀ wọn ní ìtìjú.
18 When Oholibah so blatantly prostituted herself, exposing herself naked, I turned away from her in disgust, just as I had done to her sister.
Nígbà tí ó tẹ̀síwájú nínú iṣẹ́ panṣágà rẹ̀ ní gbangba wọ́n sì tú u sí ìhòhò, mo yí padà kúrò lọ́dọ̀ rẹ̀ ní ìtìjú, gẹ́gẹ́ bí mo ti yípadà kúrò lọ́dọ̀ ẹ̀gbọ́n rẹ̀.
19 But she practiced even more prostitution, remembering how she'd been a prostitute in Egypt when she was young.
Síbẹ̀síbẹ̀ ó ń pọ̀ sí i nínú ìdàpọ̀ rẹ̀ bí ó ti ń rántí ìgbà èwe rẹ̀ tí ó jẹ́ panṣágà ní Ejibiti.
20 She wanted to have sex with her lovers who had genitals like donkeys and who ejaculated like stallions.
Nítorí ó fẹ́ olùfẹ́ àwọn olùfẹ́ wọn ní àfẹ́jù, tí àwọn tí nǹkan ọkùnrin wọn dàbí ti kẹ́tẹ́kẹ́tẹ́, àwọn ẹni tí ìtújáde ara wọn dàbí ti àwọn ẹṣin.
21 You went back to the indecent acts when you were young, when the Egyptians squeezed your nipples and fondled your young breasts.
Báyìí ni ìwọ pe ìwà ìfẹ́kúfẹ̀ẹ́ ìgbà èwe rẹ wá sí ìrántí, ní ti rírin orí ọmú rẹ láti ọwọ́ àwọn ará Ejibiti, fún ọmú ìgbà èwe rẹ.
22 So Oholibah, this is what the Lord God says: I'm going to encourage your lovers to attack you, those you rejected in disgust. I will bring them to attack you from every direction:
“Nítorí náà, Oholiba, báyìí ní Olúwa Olódùmarè wí, Èmi yóò gbé olólùfẹ́ rẹ dìde sí ọ, àwọn tí o kẹ́yìn si ní ìtìjú, èmi yóò sì mú wọn dojúkọ ọ́ ní gbogbo ọ̀nà
23 the Babylonians and all the Chaldeans, the men of Pekod, Shoa, and Koa, and all the Assyrians along with them—all handsome young men, leaders and commanders, chariot captains and important officers, all riding horses.
àwọn ará Babeli àti gbogbo ara Kaldea àwọn ọkùnrin Pekodi àti Ṣoa àti Koa àti gbogbo ará Asiria pẹ̀lú wọn, àwọn ọ̀dọ́mọkùnrin arẹwà, gbogbo àwọn gómìnà àti balógun, olórí oníkẹ̀kẹ́ ogun àti àwọn onípò gíga, gbogbo àwọn tí ń gun ẹṣin.
24 They will attack you from the north, invading with a great army, chariots, and wagons. They will come with their shields and helmets and surround you. I will hand you over to them for punishment, and they will judge and punish you following their own laws.
Wọn yóò wa dojúkọ ọ pẹ̀lú ohun ìjà, kẹ̀kẹ́ ogun pẹ̀lú kẹ̀kẹ́ ẹrù àti pẹ̀lú ìwọ́jọpọ̀ ènìyàn; wọn yóò mú ìdúró wọn lòdì sí ọ ní gbogbo ọ̀nà pẹ̀lú asà ńlá àti kékeré pẹ̀lú àṣíborí. Èmi yóò yí ọ padà sí wọn fun ìjìyà, wọn yóò sì fi ìyà jẹ ọ gẹ́gẹ́ bí wọn tí tó.
25 I feel so strongly about what you've done that I will oppose you, and they will treat you very badly. They will cut off your noses and ears, and they will kill those of you who are left. They will take away your sons and daughters as prisoners, and those of you who are left will be destroyed by fire.
Èmi yóò sì dojú ìbínú owú mi kọ ọ́, wọn yóò sì fìyà jẹ ọ́ ní ìrunú. Wọ́n yóò gé àwọn imú àti àwọn etí yín kúrò, àwọn tí ó kù nínú yín yóò ti ipá idà ṣubú. Wọn yóò mú àwọn ọmọkùnrin àti àwọn ọmọkùnrin yín lọ, àwọn tí o kù nínú yín ni iná yóò jórun.
26 They will tear off your clothes and take your beautiful jewelry.
Wọn yóò sì kó àwọn aṣọ àti àwọn ohun ọ̀ṣọ́ iyebíye yín.
27 I'm going to put a stop to your immorality and prostitution, which started in Egypt. You won't think longingly about those times, and you'll forget all about Egypt.
Èmi yóò sì fi òpin sí ìwà ìfẹ́kúfẹ̀ẹ́ àti iṣẹ́ panṣágà tí ẹ bẹ̀rẹ̀ ni Ejibiti. Ẹ̀yin kò ní wo àwọn nǹkan wọ̀nyí pẹ̀lú ìpòùngbẹ, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ẹ kò ní rántí Ejibiti mọ.
28 For this is what the Lord God says: Believe it when I say that I'm going to hand you over to the people you hate, the ones you rejected in disgust.
“Nítorí báyìí ni Olúwa Olódùmarè wí: Èmi yóò fi ọ lé ọwọ́ àwọn tí ó kórìíra, lọ́wọ́ àwọn ẹni tí ọkàn rẹ ti ṣí kúrò.
29 They will treat you with hatred. They will take away everything you've worked for, leaving you stark naked with nothing, so that so that the indecent acts of your prostitution will be exposed. Your immorality and prostitution
Wọn yóò fìyà jẹ ọ́ pẹ̀lú ìkórìíra, wọn yóò sì kó gbogbo ohun tí o ṣiṣẹ́ fún lọ. Wọn yóò fi ọ́ sílẹ̀ ní ìhòhò goloto, ìtìjú iṣẹ́ panṣágà rẹ ni yóò farahàn. Ìwà ìfẹ́kúfẹ̀ẹ́ rẹ̀ àti panṣágà rẹ.
30 is why all this has happened to you, because you acted as a prostitute with the nations and made yourself unclean by worshiping their idols.
Èmi yóò ṣe gbogbo nǹkan wọ̀nyí sí ọ, nítorí ìwọ ti bá àwọn kèfèrí ṣe àgbèrè lọ, o sì fi àwọn òrìṣà wọn ba ara rẹ̀ jẹ́.
31 Because you did what your sister did, I will give you her cup to drink.
Ìwọ ti rin ọ̀nà ti ẹ̀gbọ́n rẹ rìn, Èmi yóò sì fi ago rẹ̀ lé ọ lọ́wọ́.
32 This is what the Lord God says: You will drink from your sister's cup—a large, deep cup. You will be laughed at and insulted. You'll have to endure much of this.
“Èyí yìí ní ohun ti Olúwa Olódùmarè wí: “Ìwọ yóò mu nínú ago ẹ̀gbọ́n rẹ, ago tí ó tóbi tí ó sì jinnú: yóò mú ìfiṣẹ̀sín àti ìfiṣe ẹlẹ́yà wá, nítorí tí ago náà gba nǹkan púpọ̀.
33 It will make you drunk and full of grief because it's a cup of that brings horror and destruction, the cup your sister Samaria drank from.
Ìwọ yóò mu àmupara àti ìbànújẹ́, ago ìparun àti ìsọdahoro ago ẹ̀gbọ́n rẹ Samaria.
34 You will drink it all down, smash it to pieces on the ground, and tear at your breasts. This is what I have spoken, declares the Lord God.
Ìwọ yóò mú un ni àmugbẹ; ìwọ yóò sì fọ sí wẹ́wẹ́ ìwọ yóò sì fa ọmú rẹ̀ ya. Èmi ti sọ̀rọ̀ ni Olúwa Olódùmarè wí.
35 In summary this is what the Lord God says: Because you have forgotten about me and have ignored me, you will have to experience the consequences of your immorality and prostitution.”
“Nítorí náà báyìí ní Olúwa Olódùmarè wí: Níwọ́n bí ìwọ ti gbàgbé mi, tí ìwọ sì ti fi mi sí ẹ̀yìn rẹ, ìwọ gbọdọ̀ gba àbájáde ìfẹ́kúfẹ̀ẹ́ àti panṣágà rẹ.”
36 Then the Lord said to me: “Son of man, are you going to condemn Oholah and Oholibah? Expose the disgusting things they've done!
Olúwa sọ fún mi pé: “Ọmọ ènìyàn, ń jẹ́ ìwọ yóò ṣe ìdájọ́ Ohola àti Oholiba? Nítorí náà dojúkọ wọn nípa ìkórìíra tí wọn ń ṣe,
37 For they have committed adultery, and they are guilty of murder. They have committed adultery with their idols, and have even offered their children, whom they had for me, as sacrifices to their idols.
nítorí wọn ti dá ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ panṣágà ẹ̀jẹ̀ sì wà ní ọwọ́ wọn. Wọn dá ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ panṣágà pẹ̀lú àwọn òrìṣà wọn; kódà wọ́n fi àwọn ọmọ wọn tí wọn bí fún ni ṣe ìrúbọ, gẹ́gẹ́ bí oúnjẹ fún wọn.
38 They also did this to me: On the very same day they both made my sanctuary unclean and violated my Sabbaths.
Bákan náà ni wọ́n ti ṣe èyí náà sí mi. Ní àkókò kan náà wọn ba ibi mímọ́ mi jẹ́, wọ́n sì lo ọjọ́ ìsinmi mi ní àìmọ́.
39 On very day that they killed their children for their idols, they went my sanctuary and made it unclean. Look at what they did right inside my Temple!
Ní ọjọ́ náà gan an wọ́n fi àwọn ọmọ wọn rú ẹbọ sí àwọn òrìṣà, wọn wọ ibi mímọ́ mi lọ wọn sì lò ó ní ìlòkulò. Ìyẹn ní wọn ṣe ní ilé mi.
40 They even kept on sending messengers for men to come from far away. When the men arrived, you would get yourselves ready for them by bathing, doing your eye makeup, and putting in your jewelry.
“Wọn tilẹ̀ rán oníṣẹ́ sí àwọn ènìyàn tí wọ́n wá láti ọ̀nà jíjìn, nígbà tí wọ́n dé, ìwọ wẹ ara rẹ fún wọn, ìwọ kún ojú rẹ, ìwọ sì fi ọ̀ṣọ́ iyebíye sára.
41 You sat on an expensive couch, with my incense and my oil on a table placed in front of it.
Ìwọ jókòó lórí ibùsùn ti o lẹ́wà, pẹ̀lú tábìlì tí a tẹ́ ní iwájú rẹ lórí, èyí tí o gbé tùràrí àti òróró tí ó jẹ́ tèmi kà.
42 The room was full of the noise of people partying. Drunk men were brought in from the desert along with some common people and they put bracelets on your wrists and beautiful crowns on your head.
“Ariwo ìjọ ènìyàn tí kò bìkítà wà ní àyíká rẹ̀; a mú àwọn ara Sabeani láti aginjù pẹ̀lú àwọn ọkùnrin láti ara àwọn ọ̀pọ̀ ènìyàn aláìníláárí, wọ́n sì mú àwọn ẹ̀gbà ọrùn ọwọ́ sí àwọn ọwọ́ obìnrin náà àti ẹ̀gbọ́n rẹ̀, adé dáradára sì wà ní orí wọn.
43 Then I said about the old worn-out woman, ‘Now they can have her as a prostitute because that's what she is!’
Lẹ́yìn náà mo sọ̀rọ̀ nípa èyí tí ó lo ara rẹ̀ sá nípa panṣágà ṣíṣe, ‘Nísinsin yìí jẹ kí wọn lo o bí panṣágà, nítorí gbogbo ohun tí ó jẹ́ nìyẹn.’
44 So they had sex with her like a prostitute. They had sex with Oholah and Oholibah, those immoral women.
Wọn ba sùn bí ọkùnrin ti bá panṣágà sùn, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni wọ́n ṣe sùn pẹ̀lú obìnrin onífẹ̀kúfẹ̀ẹ́, Ohola àti Oholiba.
45 But men who believe in what's right will judge them and impose the punishment for committing commit adultery and murder, because they are adulterers and murderers.
Ṣùgbọ́n àwọn ọkùnrin olódodo yóò pàṣẹ pé kí wọ́n fi ìyà jẹ àwọn obìnrin tí ó dá ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ àgbèrè tí ó sì ta ẹ̀jẹ̀ sílẹ̀ nítorí pé panṣágà ni wọ́n ẹ̀jẹ̀ sì wà ní ọwọ́ wọn.
46 This is what the Lord God says: Have a mob attack them! Make them terrified and rob them.
“Èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa Olódùmarè wí: Mú àgbájọ àwọn ènìyànkénìyàn wá sọ́dọ̀ wọn ki ó sì fi wọn lé ọwọ́ ìpayà àti ìkógun.
47 The mob will stone them and kill them with their swords, slaughtering their sons and daughters and burning down their houses.
Àwọn ènìyànkénìyàn náà yóò sọ wọ́n ni òkúta, yóò sì gé wọn lulẹ̀ pẹ̀lú idà wọn; wọn ó sì pa àwọn ọmọkùnrin àti àwọn ọmọbìnrin wọn, wọ́n ó sì jó àwọn ilé wọn kanlẹ̀.”
48 This is how I will put an end to immorality in the country, and all the women will be warned not to do what you have done.
“Èmi yóò sì fi òpin sí ìwà ìfẹ́kúfẹ̀ẹ́ ni ilẹ̀ náà, kí gbogbo àwọn obìnrin le gba ìkìlọ̀ kí wọn kí ó ma sì ṣe fi ara wé ọ.
49 They will punish you for your immorality, and you will have to experience the consequences of your idol worship. Then you will know that I am the Lord God.”
Ìwọ yóò sì jìyà fún ìfẹ́kúfẹ̀ẹ́ rẹ, ìwọ yóò sì gba àbájáde àwọn ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ panṣágà tí o dá. Nígbà náà ìwọ yóò mọ̀ pé èmi ni Olúwa Olódùmarè.”
