Ezekiel 8
1 And in the sixt yere, in the sixt moneth, and in the fift day of the moneth, as I sate in mine house, and the Elders of Iudah sate before me, the hand of the Lord God fell there vpon me.
Tsiku lachisanu la mwezi wachisanu ndi chimodzi, mʼchaka chachisanu ndi chimodzi, ndinakhala mʼnyumba mwanga pamodzi ndi akuluakulu a ku Yuda. Tsono mphamvu za Ambuye Yehova zinandifikira.
2 Then I beheld, and lo, there was a likenesse, as the appearance of fire, to looke to, from his loynes downeward, and from his loynes vpward, as the appearance of brightnes, and like vnto amber.
Nditayangʼana ndinangoona chinthu chooneka ngati munthu. Kuchokera pamene pamaoneka ngati chiwuno chake kumatsika mʼmunsi anali ngati moto, ndipo kuchokera mʼchiwuno kukwera mmwamba amaoneka mowala ngati mkuwa wonyezimira.
3 And he stretched out the likenes of an had, and tooke me by an hearie locke of mine head, and the Spirit lift me vp betweene the earth, and the heauen, and brought mee by a Diuine vision to Ierusalem, into the entry of ye inner gate that lieth toward the North, where remained the idole of indignation, which prouoked indignation.
Iye anatambasula chinthu chooneka ngati dzanja ndipo anagwira tsitsi la pamutu panga. Nthawi yomweyo Mzimu unandikweza mlengalenga. Tsono ndikumachita ngati ndikuona Mulungu kutulo, Mzimu uja unapita nane ku Yerusalemu nundiyika pa khomo la chipata chamʼkati choyangʼana kumpoto. Kumeneko kunali fano limene limaputa mkwiyo wa Mulungu.
4 And beholde, the glorie of the God of Israel was there according to the vision, that I saw in the fielde.
Kumeneko ndinaona ulemerero wa Mulungu wa Israeli ngati momwe ndinaonera mʼmasomphenya mʼchigwa muja.
5 Then saide he vnto mee, Sonne of man, lift vp thine eyes nowe towarde the North. So I lift vp mine eyes towarde the North, and beholde, Northward, at the gate of the altar, this idole of indignation was in the entrie.
Tsono Yehova anandiwuza kuti, “Iwe mwana wa munthu, tayangʼana kumpoto.” Choncho ndinayangʼana kumpoto ndipo ndinaona pa khomo la chipata pafupi ndi guwa lansembe ndinaona fano loputa mkwiyo wa Mulungu lija.
6 He said furthermore vnto me, Sonne of man, seest thou not what they doe? euen the great abominations that the house of Israel committeth here to cause me to depart from my Sanctuarie? but yet turne thee and thou shalt see greater abominations.
Ndipo Yehova anandifunsa kuti, “Iwe mwana wa munthu, kodi ukuona zimene akuchitazi, zonyansa zazikulu zimene Aisraeli akuchita kuno, zinthu zondichotsa Ine kumalo anga opatulika? Koma iwe udzaona zinthu zimene zili zonyansa kwambiri.”
7 And he caused me to enter at the gate of the court: and when I looked, beholde, an hole was in the wall.
Kenaka Iye anandipititsa ku khomo lolowera ku bwalo la Nyumba ya Mulungu. Nditayangʼanitsitsa ndinangoona dzenje pa khomapo.
8 Then said he vnto me, Sonne of man, digge nowe in the wall. And when I had digged in the wall, beholde, there was a doore.
Yehova anandiwuza kuti, “Iwe mwana wa munthu, tsopano bowola pa khomapo.” Ndinabowoladi pa khomapo ndipo ndinapezapo khomo.
9 And he said vnto mee, Go in, and beholde the wicked abominations that they doe here.
Ndipo Yehova anandiwuza kuti, “Lowa, ndipo ona zinthu zonyansa zimene akuchita pamenepa.”
10 So I went in, and sawe, and beholde, there was euery similitude of creeping thinges and abominable beasts and all the idoles of the house of Israel painted vpon the wall round about.
Motero Ine ndinalowa ndi kuyangʼana, ndipo ndinaona pa makoma onse zithunzi za zinthu zosiyanasiyana zokwawa pansi, za nyama zonyansa ndiponso za mafano onse amene Aisraeli ankapembedza.
11 And there stoode before them seuentie men of the Ancients of the house of Israel, and in the middes of them stoode Iaazaniah, ye sonne of Shaphan, with euerie man his censour in his hand, and the vapour of the incense went vp like a cloude.
Patsogolo pa zimenezi panayima akuluakulu makumi asanu ndi awiri a Aisraeli, ndipo Yaazaniya mwana wa Safani anali atayima pakati pawo. Aliyense wa iwo anali ndi chofukizira lubani mʼdzanja lake ndipo utsi wa fungo lokoma la lubani unkafuka.
12 Then saide hee vnto mee, Sonne of man, hast thou seene what the Ancients of the house of Israel do in the darke, euery one in the chamber of his imagerie? for they say, The Lord seeth vs not, the Lord hath forsaken the earth.
Tsono Yehova anandifunsa kuti, “Iwe mwana wa munthu, kodi waona zimene akuluakulu a Aisraeli akuchita mu mdima, aliyense akupembedza fano lakelake mʼnyumbamo? Iwo akuti, ‘Yehova sakutiona; Yehova walisiya dziko!’
13 Againe he saide also vnto me, Turne thee againe, and thou shalt see greater abominations that they doe.
Iye anandiwuzanso kuti, ‘Iwe udzawaonanso akuchita zinthu zonyansa kwambiri.’”
14 And he caused me to enter into the entrie of the gate of the Lords house, which was toward the North: and beholde there sate women mourning for Tammuz.
Kenaka anapita nane pa khomo la ku khomo la chipata cha Nyumba ya Mulungu choyangʼana kumpoto, ndipo kumeneko ndinaona akazi ena atakhala pansi, akulira mulungu wawo wotchedwa Tamuzi.
15 Then saide hee vnto me, Hast thou seene this, O sonne of man? Turne thee againe, and thou shalt see greater abominations then these.
Yehova anandifunsa kuti, “Iwe mwana wa munthu, kodi ukuziona zimenezi? Iwe udzaona zinthu zimene zili zonyansa kwambiri kuposa izi.”
16 And he caused me to enter into the inner court of the Lordes house, and beholde, at the doore of the Temple of the Lord, betweene the porche and the altar were about fiue and twentie men with their backs toward the Temple of the Lord, and their faces towarde the East, and they worshipped the sunne, towarde the East.
Kenaka Iye anapita nane mʼkati mwa bwalo la Nyumba ya Yehova. Kumeneko ku khomo lolowera ku Nyumba ya Yehova pakati pa khonde ndi guwa lansembe, panali amuna 25. Anafulatira Nyumba ya Mulungu wa Yehova ndipo nkhope zawo zinaloza kummawa, ndipo ankapembedza dzuwa choyangʼana kummawa.
17 The he said vnto me, Hast thou seene this, O sonne of man? Is it a small thing to the house of Iudah to commit these abominations which they do here? for they haue filled the land with crueltie, and haue returned to prouoke mee: and loe, they haue cast out stinke before their noses.
Yehova anandifunsa kuti, “Iwe mwana wa munthu, kodi waziona zimenezi? Kodi nʼchinthu chopepuka kuti anthu a ku Yuda azichita zonyansa zimene akuchitazi pano? Kodi afike mpaka pomafalitsa za ndewu mʼdziko lonse? Iwotu akuwutsa ukali wanga. Akundipsetsa mtima ndi zochita zawo!
18 Therefore will I also execute my wrath: mine eye shall not spare them, neither will I haue pitie, and though they crie in mine eares with a loude voyce, yet will I not heare them.
Choncho Ine ndidzawalanga ndili wokwiya. Sindidzawamvera chisoni kapena kuwaleka. Ngakhale atandifuwulira mʼmakutu mwanga sindidzawamvera.”
