Ezekiel 4
1 “Son of man, you are to take a brick, put in front of you, and draw a picture of the city of Jerusalem on it.
“Nísinsin yìí, ìwọ ọmọ ènìyàn, mú amọ̀ ṣíṣù kan, gbé e sí iwájú rẹ, kí o sì ya àwòrán ìlú Jerusalẹmu sí orí rẹ̀.
2 Show that it's under siege: establish a siege perimeter all around it, build a siege ramp against it, set up the enemy camps beside it, and put battering rams on all sides around it.
Kí o sì dó tì í, kí o sì mọ ilé ìṣọ́ tì í, kí o sì mọ odi tì í, kí o sì gbé ogun sí i, kí o sì to òòlù yí i ká.
3 Put an iron plate between yourself and the city so it's like an iron wall. Face the city and demonstrate that it's under siege, and that you are the one attacking it. This is a symbolic warning to the people of Israel.
Kí o sì fi àwo irin kan ṣe ògiri láàrín rẹ̀ àti ìlú yìí, kí o sì kọjú sí i, a ó sì dó tì í, ìwọ yóò sì dó tì í. Èyí yóò jẹ́ àmì fún ilé Israẹli.
4 Then lie on your left side and take the Israelites' sins on yourself. You will carry their sins for the number of days you lie on your side.
“Lẹ́yìn èyí, lọ fi ẹ̀gbẹ́ òsì dùbúlẹ̀, kí o sì gbé ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ ilé Israẹli lé orí ara rẹ. Iye ọjọ́ tí ìwọ bá fi sùn náà ni ìwọ yóò fi ru ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ wọn.
5 I will make you stay there for 390 days, representing the number of years of their sins. You will bear the sins of the Israelites.
Nítorí mo fi iye ọdún tí wọ́n fi ṣẹ̀ fún ọ gẹ́gẹ́ bí iye ọjọ́ tí ìwọ yóò lò. Nítorí náà, ìwọ yóò ru ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ ilé Israẹli fún irinwó ọjọ́ ó dín mẹ́wàá.
6 Once you have finished doing this for these days, then you are to lie down again, but this time on your right side, and carry the sins of the people of Judah. I will make you stay there for 40 days, one day for every year.
“Tí o bá parí èyí, tún fi ẹ̀gbẹ́ ọ̀tún dùbúlẹ̀ kí o sì ru ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ ilé Juda fún ogójì ọjọ́, nítorí pé ọjọ́ kan ló dúró fún ọdún kan.
7 Keep your face towards the siege of Jerusalem with your arm bared, and prophesy against it.
Ìwọ dojúkọ ìgbógunti Jerusalẹmu, na ọwọ́ rẹ sí i, kí o sì sọ àsọtẹ́lẹ̀ nípa ìlú náà.
8 Be ready, because now I'm going to tie you up with ropes so you can't move from side to side until the days of your siege are over.
Èmi yóò dè ọ́ ní okùn dé bi pé ìwọ kò ní í le yírapadà láti ìhà ọ̀tún sí ìhà òsì títí tí ọjọ́ ìgbóguntì rẹ yóò fi pé.
9 Get some wheat, barley, beans, lentils, millet, and spelt, and mix them together in a storage jar. Use them to make bread for yourself. This is what you are to eat for the 390 days that you lie on your side.
“Mú alikama, ọkà bàbà àti barle, erèé àti lẹntili, jéró àti ẹwẹ; fi àwọn nǹkan wọ̀nyí ṣe àkàrà tí ìwọ yóò máa jẹ nígbà tí ìwọ bá dùbúlẹ̀ fún irinwó ọjọ́ ó dín mẹ́wàá.
10 You are allowed to eat twenty shekels weight of food each day, and you are to eat it at regular times.
Wọn òsùwọ̀n ogún ṣékélì oúnjẹ tí ìwọ yóò máa jẹ lójoojúmọ́ kí o sì máa jẹ ẹ́ ní àkókò tí a ti yà sọ́tọ̀.
11 Measure out a sixth of a hin of water to drink, and you are to drink it at regular times.
Bákan náà, wọn ìdámẹ́fà omi, kí ìwọ ó sì máa mú ní àkókò tí a yà sọ́tọ̀.
12 You are to eat the bread as you would a barley loaf. You are to bake it over a fire burning dried human excrement as everyone watches.”
Ìwọ yóò sì jẹ ẹ́ bí àkàrà barle; dín in ní ojú àwọn ènìyàn, ìgbẹ́ ènìyàn ni kí o fi dáná rẹ.”
13 Then the Lord said, “This is the way the Israelites will eat their unclean bread among the nations where I'll exile them.”
Olúwa sọ pé, “Báyìí ni àwọn ọmọ Israẹli yóò jẹ oúnjẹ àìmọ́ láàrín àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè tí èmi yóò lé wọn lọ.”
14 “Please no, Lord God!” I answered. “I have never made myself unclean. I haven't eaten anything found dead or killed by wild animals from the time I was young until now. I've never put unclean meat in my mouth.”
Nígbà náà ni mo wí pé, “Háà! Kò rí bẹ́ẹ̀ Olúwa Olódùmarè! Láti ìgbà èwe mi di ìsinsin yìí èmi kò tí ì sọ ara mi di aláìmọ́ rí. Èmi kò tí ì jẹ ohun tó kú fúnra rẹ̀ tàbí èyí tí ẹranko búburú fàya pẹ́rẹpẹ̀rẹ. Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ẹran àìmọ́ kan kò tí ì wọ ẹnu mi rí.”
15 “All right,” he said. “I'll let you use cow manure instead of human excrement You can bake your bread over a fire using that.”
Nígbà náà ló wí fún mi pé, “Wò ó, Èmi ó fún ọ ní ìgbẹ́ màlúù dípò ìgbẹ́ ènìyàn. Èmi yóò mú ki ó dín àkàrà rẹ lórí ìgbẹ́ màlúù dípò ìgbẹ́ ènìyàn.”
16 Then he went on, “Son of man, watch! I am going to put a stop to Jerusalem's food supply. Worried sick, they will eat bread rationed by weight. Despairing at what's happening, they will drink water measured in small amounts.
Ó sì tún sọ fún mi pé, “Ọmọ ènìyàn, èmi yóò dáwọ́ ìpèsè oúnjẹ dúró ní Jerusalẹmu. Ní pípín ni àwọn ènìyàn yóò máa pín oúnjẹ jẹ pẹ̀lú ìfọkànsọ́nà bẹ́ẹ̀ gẹ́gẹ́ ni wọn yóò máa mu omi pẹ̀lú ìdààmú,
17 Running out of food and water, they will be horrified as they look at one another wasting away because of their sins.”
nítorí pé oúnjẹ àti omi yóò wọ́n. Wọn yóò máa wo ara wọn pẹ̀lú ìyanu, èmi yóò sì jẹ́ kí wọ́n ṣọ̀fọ̀ nítorí ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ wọn.
