Ezekiel 6

1 AND the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,

Yehowa ƒe nya va gbɔnye be,

2 Son of man, set thy face toward the mountains of Israel, and prophesy against them,

“Ame vi, trɔ mo de Israel ƒe towo; gblɔ nya ɖi ɖe wo ŋu,

3 And say, Ye mountains of Israel, hear the word of the Lord God; Thus saith the Lord God to the mountains, and to the hills, to the rivers, and to the valleys; Behold, I, even I, will bring a sword upon you, and I will destroy your high places.

eye nàgblɔ be, ‘O Israel ƒe towo, mise Aƒetɔ Yehowa ƒe nyawo. Esiae nye nya si Aƒetɔ Yehowa gblɔ na towo kple togbɛwo, na agadowo kple balimewo: mele yi tsɔ ge ɖe mia ŋu, eye magblẽ miaƒe nuxeƒewo.

4 And your altars shall be desolate, and your images shall be broken: and I will cast down your slain men before your idols.

Woagbã miaƒe vɔsamlekpuiwo, woakaka vɔsamlekpui siwo dzi miedoa dzudzɔ ʋeʋĩ le, eye mawu miaƒe amewo le miaƒe legbawo ŋgɔ.

5 And I will lay the dead carcases of the children of Israel before their idols; and I will scatter your bones round about your altars.

Matsɔ Israelvi kukuwo amlɔ woƒe legbawo ŋgɔ, eye makaka miaƒe ƒuwo aƒo xlã miaƒe vɔsamlekpuiwo.

6 In all your dwellingplaces the cities shall be laid waste, and the high places shall be desolate; that your altars may be laid waste and made desolate, and your idols may be broken and cease, and your images may be cut down, and your works may be abolished.

Afi sia afi si mianɔ la, miaƒe duwo azu aƒedo, eye woagbã miaƒe nuxeƒewo, woagbã miaƒe vɔsamlekpuiwo, eye woatsrɔ̃ wo; woagbã miaƒe legbawo, woagbã miaƒe vɔsamlekpui siwo dzi miedoa dzudzɔ ʋeʋĩ le, eye woatsrɔ̃ nu siwo miewɔ.

7 And the slain shall fall in the midst of you, and ye shall know that I am the Lord.

Woawu miaƒe amewo le mia dome, eye mianya be nyee nye Yehowa.’”

8 Yet will I leave a remnant, that ye may have some that shall escape the sword among the nations, when ye shall be scattered through the countries.

“Ke maɖe ame aɖewo ya, elabena mia dometɔ aɖewo asi le yinu ne wokaka mi ɖe anyigba dzi kple dukɔwo dome.

9 And they that escape of you shall remember me among the nations whither they shall be carried captives, because I am broken with their whorish heart, which hath departed from me, and with their eyes, which go a whoring after their idols: and they shall lothe themselves for the evils which they have committed in all their abominations.

Ekema le dukɔ siwo me woɖe aboyo wo yi la, ame siwo asi la, aɖo ŋku dzinye. Woaɖo ŋku ale si woƒe ahasiwɔdzi siwo trɔ le yonyeme kple ale si woƒe ŋkuwo nɔ woƒe legbawo ŋu la na mese vevee la dzi, woase veve ɖe nu vɔ̃ɖi siwo wowɔ kple woƒe wɔna nyɔŋuwo katã ta.

10 And they shall know that I am the Lord, and that I have not said in vain that I would do this evil unto them.

Woanya be nyee nye Yehowa; nyemedo ŋɔdzi na wo dzodzro be mahe dzɔgbevɔ̃e sia va wo dzii o.”

11 Thus saith the Lord God; Smite with thine hand, and stamp with thy foot, and say, Alas for all the evil abominations of the house of Israel! for they shall fall by the sword, by the famine, and by the pestilence.

“Nya si Aƒetɔ Yehowa gblɔe nye, ‘Miƒo asikpe, mitu afɔ anyi, eye miado ɣli be, “Ao!” Le Israel ƒe aƒe la ƒe nu vɔ̃ɖiwo kple ŋunyɔnuwo katã ta, elabena yi, dɔwuame kple dɔvɔ̃ atsrɔ̃ wo.

12 He that is far off shall die of the pestilence; and he that is near shall fall by the sword; and he that remaineth and is besieged shall die by the famine: thus will I accomplish my fury upon them.

Ame si le adzɔge ʋĩi la, dɔvɔ̃ awui, ame si le kpuiƒe la, yi awui, eye ame si atsi agbe la, aku le dɔwuame ta. Alea mawɔ nye dziku ŋu dɔ ɖe wo ŋutie.

13 Then shall ye know that I am the Lord, when their slain men shall be among their idols round about their altars, upon every high hill, in all the tops of the mountains, and under every green tree, and under every thick oak, the place where they did offer sweet savour to all their idols.

Ale woanya be nyee nye Yehowa, ne woƒe ame kukuwo mlɔ woƒe legbawo dome, eye ɖewo ƒo xlã woƒe vɔsamlekpuiwo le nuxeƒe ɖe sia ɖe kple to ɖe sia ɖe dzi, le ati dama kple oɖumti dama ɖe sia ɖe te, teƒe siwo katã wodoa dzudzɔ ʋeʋĩ na woƒe legbawo katã le.

14 So will I stretch out my hand upon them, and make the land desolate, yea, more desolate than the wilderness toward Diblath, in all their habitations: and they shall know that I am the Lord.

Mado nye asi ɖa ɖe wo ŋu, eye mana woƒe anyigba nazu gbegbe, tso gbegbe la to yi Dibla, afi sia afi si woanɔ. Ekema woanya be nyee nye Yehowa.’”
