Ezekiel 22
1 Moreover, the worde of the Lord came vnto me, saying,
Okwu nke Onyenwe anyị ruru m ntị, sị:
2 Now thou sonne of man, wilt thou iudge, wilt thou iudge this bloody citie? wilt thou shew her all her abominations?
“Ma gị onwe gị, Nwa nke mmadụ, ị ga-ekpe ya ikpe? Ị ga-ekpe obodo ọbara a ikpe? Mgbe ahụ, ị ga-eguzogide ya ihu nʼihu mee ka ọ mara ihe arụ niile o mere.
3 Then say, Thus sayth the Lord God, The citie sheddeth blood in the middes of it, that her time may come, and maketh idols against her selfe to pollute her selfe.
‘Ị ga-asị, Otu a ka Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị na-ekwu: Gị obodo nke na-ewetara onwe gị mbibi nʼihi ọbara niile a na-awụsi nʼetiti gị, na arụsị niile i ji na-emerụ onwe gị.
4 Thou hast offended in thy blood, that thou hast shed, and hast polluted thy selfe in thine idols, which thou hast made, and thou hast caused thy dayes to draw neere, and art come vnto thy terme: therefore haue I made thee a reproch to the heathen, and a mocking to all countreys.
Lee ka i si bụrụ onye ikpe mara nʼihi ọbara ị wụsiri. Leekwa ka i si bụrụ onye e merụrụ emerụ site nʼarụsị niile ị kpụrụ. I jirila aka gị mee ka ọgwụgwụ gị dị nso, leekwa na ọgwụgwụ gị dị nso, leekwa na ọgwụgwụ gị abịala nʼezie. Nʼihi ya, aga m eme gị ka ị bụrụ ihe nkọcha nye mba niile, na ihe ịkwa emo nye mba dị iche iche.
5 Those that be neere, and those that be farre from thee, shall mocke thee, which art vile in name and sore in affliction.
Ndị nọ gị nso na ndị nọ gị ebe dị anya ga-achị gị ọchị, gị obodo rụrụ arụ, na nke jupụtara nʼọgbaaghara.
6 Beholde, the princes of Israel euery one in thee was ready to his power, to shed blood.
“‘Lee ka ndịisi Izrel nọ nʼime gị si e ji ike ha nwere na-awụsi ọbara.
7 In thee haue they despised father and mother: in the middes of thee haue they oppressed the stranger: in thee haue they vexed the fatherlesse and the widowe.
A na-elelị nne na nna nʼime gị. Ndị mbịarambịa ka e ji anya ike na-emegbu. Ndị na-enweghị nna na ndị inyom di ha nwụrụ ka a na-akpagbu, na-emejọkwa.
8 Thou hast despised mine holy things, and hast polluted my Sabbaths.
I lelịala ihe nsọ m niile, merụọkwa ụbọchị izuike m niile.
9 In thee are men that cary tales to shed blood: in thee are they that eate vpon the mountaines: in ye mids of thee they comit abomination.
Ndị nkwutọ, ndị na-awụsi ọbara nọ nʼime gị. Ndị na-eri nri nʼihu arụsị niile dị nʼelu ugwu, na ndị na-eme omume rụrụ arụ nọkwa nʼime gị.
10 In thee haue they discouered their fathers shame: in thee haue they vexed her that was polluted in her floures.
Nʼime gị ka ndị na-akwaso nwunye nna ha iko dị, nʼime gị ka ndị na-awakpo ụmụ nwanyị mgbe ha nọ na nsọ ha, bụ mgbe ha nọ nʼọnọdụ adịghị ọcha.
11 And euery one hath committed abomination with his neighbours wife, and euery one hath wickedly defiled his daughter in lawe, and in thee hath euery man forced his owne sister, euen his fathers daughter.
Nʼime gị ka otu nwoke na-eme ihe arụ ya na nwunye onye agbataobi ya, onye ọzọ na-enweghị ihere emerụọla nwunye nwa ya, onye ọzọkwa, emerụkwala nwanne ya nwanyị, bụ ada nke nna ya mụrụ.
12 In thee haue they taken giftes to shed blood: thou hast taken vsurie and the encrease, and thou hast defrauded thy neighbours by extortion, and hast forgotten me, saith the Lord God.
E nwekwara ndị na-anara ego gbuo mmadụ ibe ha nʼime gị. Gị onwe gị na-anarakwa ndị i binyere ego ụma buru ibu, na-esitekwa nʼaka ike na-anara ndị mmadụ ihe ha. I chefuokwala m. Otu a ka Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị kwubiri.
13 Beholde, therefore I haue smitten mine hands vpon thy couetousnesse, that thou hast vsed, and vpon the blood, which hath bene in the middes of thee.
“‘Lee, aghaghị m ịkụkọta ọbụ aka m abụọ nʼihi uru nke na-ezighị ezi ị na-eri, na ọbara niile nke ị wụsiri nʼetiti gị.
14 Can thine heart endure, or can thine hands be strong, in the dayes that I shall haue to doe with thee? I the Lord haue spoken it, and will doe it.
Obi gị ọ ga-esikwa ike? Ị ga-eguzokwa nʼụbọchị m ga-ekpe gị ikpe? Nʼihi na mụ onwe m bụ Onyenwe anyị ekwuola. Aga m emezukwa ya.
15 And I wil scatter thee among the heathen, and disperse thee in the countreys, and will cause thy filthines to cease from thee.
Aga m achụsa unu nʼetiti mba niile, fesaa unu nʼetiti mba niile. Aga m emekwa ka adịghị ọcha unu kwụsị.
16 And thou shalt take thine inheritance in thy selfe in the sight of the heathen, and thou shalt knowe that I am the Lord.
Mgbe e mere ka ị ghara ịdị nsọ nʼanya ndị mba dị iche iche, ị ga-amatakwa na mụ onwe m bụ Onyenwe anyị.’”
17 And the worde of the Lord came vnto me, saying,
Mgbe ahụ, okwu Onyenwe anyị ruru m ntị, sị,
18 Sonne of man, the house of Israel is vnto me as drosse: all they are brasse, and tinne, and yron, and leade in the mids of the fornace: they are euen the drosse of siluer.
“Nwa nke mmadụ, ụlọ Izrel aghọọlara m ihe efu. Ha niile aghọọla ọla, na gbamgbam, na igwe, na ọla opu a hapụrụ nʼọkụ. Ha bụ nnọọ ihe efu nke ọlaọcha.
19 Therefore, thus sayth the Lord God, Because ye are all as drosse, beholde, therefore I will gather you in the middes of Ierusalem.
Nʼihi ya, otu a ka Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị kwuru: ‘Nʼihi na unu niile aghọọla ihe efu, aga m achịkọta unu nʼime Jerusalem.
20 As they gather siluer and brasse, and yron, and leade, and tinne into the middes of the fornace, to blowe the fire vpon it to melt it, so wil I gather you in mine anger and in my wrath, and wil put you there and melt you.
Dịka a na-achịkọta ọlaọcha, na ọla, na igwe, na opu, na gbamgbam, tinye ha nʼoke ọkụ ka ha gbazee, otu a ka m ga-esite nʼiwe m na ọnụma m chịkọtaa unu nʼime obodo ahụ gbazee unu.
21 I wil gather you, I say, and blowe the fire of my wrath vpon you, and you shalbe melted in the mids thereof.
Aga m achịkọta unu, fụkwasị unu ọkụ nke ọnụma m, mee ka unu gbazee nʼime ya.
22 As siluer is melted in the mids of the fornace, so shall ye be melted in the mids thereof, and ye shall knowe, that I the Lord haue powred out my wrath vpon you.
Dịka ọlaọcha si agbaze nʼọkụ, otu a ka unu ga-esi gbazee nʼime ya. Unu ga-amatakwa nʼezie na mụ onwe m bụ Onyenwe anyị awụkwasịla unu iwe m.’”
23 And the worde of the Lord came vnto me, saying,
Ọzọkwa, okwu Onyenwe anyị ruru m ntị, sị,
24 Sonne of man, say vnto her; Thou art the land, that is vncleane, and not rained vpon in the day of wrath.
“Nwa nke mmadụ, gwa ala ahụ okwu, ‘Ị bụ ala nke a na-emebeghị ka ọ dị ọcha, maọbụ mmiri izokwasị ya nʼụbọchị ọnụma.’
25 There is a conspiracie of her prophets in the mids thereof like a roaring lyon, rauening the praye: they haue deuoured soules: they haue taken the riches and precious things: they haue made her many widowes in the mids thereof.
E nwere izuzu ọjọọ nke ndị ụmụ eze nọ nʼime ya, dịka ọdụm nke na-agbọ ụja na-adọgbu anụ ọ na-eri eri, ha na-eripịa ndị mmadụ. Ha ewerela akụ ha na ihe ha niile dị oke ọnụahịa, mekwa ka ụmụ nwanyị na-enweghị di baa ụba nʼetiti ya.
26 Her Priests haue broken my Lawe, and haue defiled mine holy things: they haue put no difference betweene the holy and prophane, neither discerned betweene the vncleane, and the cleane, and haue hid their eyes from my Sabbaths, and I am prophaned among them.
Ndị nchụaja ya na-enupu isi nʼiwu m niile, mee ka ihe nsọ m niile gharakwa ịdị nsọ, nʼebe nsọ m. Ha adịghị akpakwa oke nʼetiti ihe dị nsọ na ihe na-adịghị nsọ. Ha na-ezi ndị m na ihe dị iche ọbụla adịghị nʼetiti ihe dị ọcha na ihe na-adịghị ọcha. Ha adịghị akpọkwa ụbọchị izuike m ihe ọbụla. Nʼihi ya, e mere ka m ghara ịdịkwa nsọ nʼetiti ha.
27 Her princes in the mids thereof are like wolues, rauening the praye to shed blood, and to destroy soules for their owne couetous lucre.
Ndịisi nọ nʼime gị dịka nkịta ọhịa na-adọgbu anụ o gbutara. Ha na-awụsi ọbara, ime ka mkpụrụobi mmadụ laa nʼiyi nʼihi uru akpa ha.
28 And her prophets haue dawbed them with vntempered morter, seeing vanities, and diuining lies vnto them, saying, Thus sayth the Lord God, when the Lord had not spoken.
Ndị amụma ha eteela nzu nʼọrụ ha niile site nʼọhụ ụgha nʼịgba afa ụgha mgbe ha na-ahụghị ọhụ ọbụla. Ha na-asị, ‘Otu a ka Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị sịrị,’ mgbe Onyenwe anyị na-ekwughị ihe ọbụla.
29 The people of the land haue violently oppressed by spoyling and robbing, and haue vexed the poore and the needy: yea, they haue oppressed the stranger against right.
Ndị ala a na-eji aka ike na-apụnara ndị ọzọ ihe ha nwere na-ezukwa ohi. Ha na-emegbu ndị ogbenye na ndị nọ na mkpa, na-emegbukwa ndị ọbịa site nʼụzọ ekpeghị ikpe ziri ezi.
30 And I sought for a man among them, that should make vp the hedge, and stand in the gap before me for the land, that I should not destroy it, but I found none.
“Achọrọ m otu onye nʼetiti ha bụ onye nke ga-ewuzi mgbidi ogige, guzokwa nʼihu m ikwuchite ọnụ ala a, ka m ghara ịla ala a nʼiyi, ma ọ dịghị onye m hụrụ.
31 Therefore haue I powred out mine indignation vpon them, and consumed them with the fire of my wrath: their owne wayes haue I rendred vpon their heads, sayth the Lord God.
Nʼihi ya, aga m awụkwasị ha ọnụma m, jirikwa iwe m dị ọkụ rechapụ ha. Aga m ebokwasịkwa ahụhụ niile nke mmehie ha, nʼisi ha, otu a ka Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị kwubiri.”
