< Ezekiel 9 >

1 And he called before my ears with a loud voice, saying, Let those come near that have charge to punish the city, and every man with his destroying weapon in his hand.
Nang magkagayo'y sumigaw siya sa aking pakinig ng malakas na tinig, na nagsasabi, Magsilapit yaong mga may katungkulan sa bayan, na bawa't isa'y may kaniyang pangpatay na almas sa kaniyang kamay.
2 And, behold, six men came from the direction of the upper gate, which is turned toward the north, and every man with his weapon of destruction in his hand; and one man in the midst of them was clothed in linen, with a writer's materials by his side: and they went in, and placed themselves beside the copper altar.
At narito, anim na lalake ay nagsipanggaling sa daan ng mataas na pintuang-daan, na nalalagay sa dako ng hilagaan, na bawa't isa'y may kaniyang pangpatay na almas sa kaniyang kamay; at isang lalake ay nasa gitna nila na nakapanamit ng kayong lino, na may tintero ng manunulat sa kaniyang tagiliran. At sila'y nagsipasok, at nagsitayo sa siping ng tansong dambana.
3 And the glory of the God of Israel ascended up from the cherub, whereupon it had been, to the threshold of the house. And he called to the man clothed in linen, who had the writer's materials by his side.
At ang kaluwalhatian ng Dios ng Israel ay umilanglang mula sa kerubin, na kinapapatungan, hanggang sa pintuan ng bahay: at kaniyang tinawag ang lalaking nakapanamit ng kayong lino, na may tintero ng manunulat sa kaniyang tagiliran.
4 And the Lord said unto him, Pass through the midst of the city, through the midst of Jerusalem, and inscribe a mark upon the foreheads of the men who sigh and who complain because of all the abominations which are done in the midst of it.
At sinabi ng Panginoon sa kaniya, Pumaroon ka sa gitna ng bayan, sa gitna ng Jerusalem, at maglagay ka ng mga tanda sa mga noo ng mga taong nangagbubuntong-hininga at nagsidaing dahil sa lahat na kasuklamsuklam na nagawa sa gitna niyaon.
5 And to the others he said before my ears, Pass ye through the city after him, and smite: let your eye not look with pity, and do not spare;
At sa mga iba ay sinabi niya sa aking pakinig, Magsiparoon kayo sa bayan na magsisunod sa kaniya, at manakit kayo: huwag magpatawad ang inyong mata, o kayo man ay mahabag;
6 The aged, youth, and virgin, and little children, and women shall ye slay and destroy; but come not near any man upon whom the mark is; and at my sanctuary shall ye begin. Then they began with the ancient men who were before the house.
Lipulin ninyong lubos ang matanda, ang binata at ang dalaga, at ang mga bata at ang mga babae; nguni't huwag lumapit sa sinomang lalake na tinandaan; at inyong pasimulan sa aking santuario. Nang magkagayo'y kanilang pinasimulan sa mga matandang lalake na nangasa harap ng bahay.
7 And he said unto them, Make unclean the house, and fill the courts with the slain: go forth. And they went forth, and they smote in the city.
At sinabi niya sa kanila, Lapastanganin ninyo ang bahay, at punuin ninyo ng patay ang mga looban: magsilabas kayo. At sila'y nagsilabas, at nanakit sa bayan.
8 And it came to pass, while they were smiting them, and I alone was left, that I fell upon my face, and cried out, and said, Ah Lord Eternal! wilt thou destroy all the residue of Israel when thou pourest out thy fury over Jerusalem?
At nangyari, habang sila'y nananakit, at ako'y naiwan, na ako'y nasubasob, at sumigaw ako, at aking sinabi, Ah Panginoong Dios! iyo bagang lilipulin ang buong nalabi sa Israel, sa iyong pagbubugso ng iyong kapusukan sa Jerusalem?
9 Then said he unto me, The iniquity of the house of Israel and of Judah is exceedingly great, and the land is full of blood-guiltiness, and the city full of injustice; for they have said, The Lord hath forsaken the land, and the Lord seeth not.
Nang magkagayo'y sinabi niya sa akin, Ang kasamaan ng sangbahayan ni Israel at ni Juda ay totoong malaki, at ang lupain ay puno ng dugo, at ang bayan ay puno ng kasuwailan: sapagka't kanilang sinasabi, Pinabayaan ng Panginoon ang lupa, at hindi nakikita ng Panginoon.
10 And as for me also, my eye shall not look with pity, and I will not spare; but I will bring their course upon their own head.
At tungkol sa akin naman, ang aking mata ay hindi magpapatawad, o mahahabag man ako, kundi aking ipadadanas ang kanilang lakad sa kanilang ulo.
11 And, behold, the man clothed in linen, who had the writing materials by his side, brought back word, saying, I have done according to all that thou hast commanded me.
At, narito, ang lalaking nakapanamit ng kayong lino, na may tintero ng manunulat sa kaniyang tagiliran, nagbalita ng bagay; na sinabi, Aking ginawa na gaya ng iniutos mo sa akin.
