< Ezekiel 11 >

1 And [the] Spirit lifts me up, and it brings me to the east gate of the house of YHWH, that is facing the east, and behold, at the opening of the gate [are] twenty-five men, and I see in their midst Jaazaniah son of Azzur, and Pelatiah son of Benaiah, heads of the people.
Hafuurri ol na fuudhee gara balbala mana Waaqayyoo kan gara baʼaa ilaaluutti na fide. Achis karra balbala sanaa dura namoota digdamii shantu ture; anis isaan gidduutti hooggantoota sabaa Yaazaniyaa ilma Azurii fi Phelaatiyaa ilma Benaayaa nan arge.
2 And He says to me, “Son of man, these [are] the men who are devising iniquity, and who are giving evil counsel in this city;
Waaqayyos akkana naan jedhe; “Yaa ilma namaa, isaan kunneen namoota magaalaa kana keessatti hammina malanii fi gorsa hamaa gorsanii dha.
3 who are saying, It [is] not near—to build houses, it [is] the pot, and we [are] the flesh.
Isaanis, ‘Yeroon itti manneen ijaaraman gaʼeera mitii? Magaalattiin kun okkotee waa itti affeelanii dha; nu immoo ishee keessatti foon’ jedhan.
4 Therefore prophesy concerning them, prophesy, son of man.”
Kanaafuu isaanitti raajii dubbadhu; yaa ilma namaa raajii dubbadhu.”
5 And [the] Spirit of YHWH falls on me, and He says to me, “Say, Thus said YHWH: You have said correctly, O house of Israel, And I have known the steps of your spirit.
Ergasii Hafuurri Waaqayyoo narra buʼee akkana naan jedhe; “Waaqayyo akkana jedha: Yaa mana Israaʼel isin akkas jettu; ani garuu waan isin qalbii keessanitti yaaddan nan beeka.
6 You multiplied your wounded in this city, And filled its out-places with the wounded.
Isin magaalaa kana keessatti namoota hedduu ajjeeftanii daandii ishee reeffaan guuttaniirtu.
7 Therefore, thus said Lord YHWH: Your wounded whom you placed in its midst, They [are] the flesh, and it [is] the pot, And He has brought you out from its midst.
“Kanaafuu Waaqayyo Gooftaan akkana jedha: Reeffi isin achitti gattan foon; magaalaan kun immoo okkotee dha; ani garuu magaalaa kana keessaa isinan baasa.
8 You have feared a sword, And I bring in a sword against you, A declaration of Lord YHWH.
Isin goraadee sodaattu; wanni ani isinitti fidu immoo goraadeedha, jedha Waaqayyo Gooftaan.
9 And I have brought you out of its midst, And given you into the hand of strangers, And I have done judgments among you.
Ani magaalaa keessaa isin baasee alagaatti dabarsee isin kennee isinan adaba.
10 You fall by the sword, I judge you on the border of Israel, And you have known that I [am] YHWH.
Isin goraadeedhaan dhumtu; anis daangaa Israaʼel irratti isinitti mura. Kanaanis akka ani Waaqayyo taʼe ni beektu.
11 It is not for a pot for you, Nor are you for flesh in its midst, I judge you at the border of Israel.
Magaalaan kun okkotee isinii hin taatu yookaan isin achi keessatti foon hin taatan; anis daangaa Israaʼel irratti isinitti nan mura.
12 And you have known that I [am] YHWH, For you have not walked in My statutes, And you have not done My judgments, And according to the judgments of the nations Who are around you, you have done!”
Isin akka ani Waaqayyo taʼe ni beektu; sirna saboota naannoo keessan jiraatanii duukaa buutan malee seera koo hin eegne yookaan naamusa koo hin eegneetii.”
13 And it comes to pass, at my prophesying, that Pelatiah son of Benaiah is dying, and I fall on my face, and cry—a loud voice—and say, “Aah! Lord YHWH, You are making an end of the remnant of Israel.”
Utuma ani raajii dubbachaa jiruu Phelaatiyaan ilmi Benaayaa duʼe. Kana irratti ani addaan lafatti gombifamee, “Ani bade yaa Waaqayyo Gooftaa! Ati hambaa Israaʼel guutumaan guutuutti balleessitaa?” jedheen sagalee guddaadhaan iyye.
14 And there is a word of YHWH to me, saying,
Ergasii dubbiin Waaqayyoo akkana jedhee gara koo dhufe;
15 “Son of man, your brothers, your brothers, men of your family, and all the house of Israel—all of it—[are] they to whom inhabitants of Jerusalem have said, Keep far off from YHWH;
“Yaa ilma namaa, obboloota kee jechuunis obboloota kee kanneen firoota kee dhiigaatii fi manni Israaʼel guutuun kanneen namoonni Yerusaalem, ‘Isaan Waaqayyo irraa fagaataniiru; biyyi kunis akka handhuuraatti nuuf kennamteerti’ jedhaniinii dha.
16 it [is] ours, the land has been given for an inheritance; therefore say, Thus said Lord YHWH: Because I put them far off among nations, And because I scattered them through lands, I am also for a little sanctuary to them, In lands to where they have gone in.
“Kanaafuu akkana jedhi: ‘Waaqayyo Gooftaan akkana jedha: Ani saboota gidduutti fageessee isaan ergee biyyoota keessa isaan faffacaasu iyyuu, amma illee yeroo xinnoof biyyoota isaan dhaqan keessatti isaaniif iddoo qulqullummaa taʼeera.’
17 Therefore say, Thus said Lord YHWH: And I have assembled you from the peoples, And I have gathered you from the lands, Into which you have been scattered, And I have given the ground of Israel to you.
“Kanaafuu akkana jedhi: ‘Waaqayyo Gooftaan akkana jedha: Ani saboota keessaa walitti isin qabee biyyoota itti bittinnooftan keessaa deebisee isin nan fida; biyya Israaʼelis deebisee isiniif nan kenna.’
18 And they have gone in there, And turned aside all its detestable things, And all its abominations—out of it.
“Isaan biyyattiitti deebiʼanii wantoota ishee jibbisiisoo hundaa fi wantoota ishee balfamoo hunda ishee keessaa ni balleessu.
19 And I have given one heart to them, And I give a new spirit in your midst, And I have turned the heart of stone out of their flesh, And I have given a heart of flesh to them.
Ani garaa gargar hin qoodamne isaaniif nan kenna; hafuura haaraas isaan keessa nan kaaʼa; garaa isaanii isa dhagaa isaan keessaa baasee garaa foonii nan kennaaf.
20 So that they walk in My statutes, And keep My judgments, and have done them, And they have been to Me for a people, And I am to them for God.
Isaanis sirna koo duukaa buʼu; seera kootiifis ni ajajamu. Isaan saba koo ni taʼu; anis Waaqa isaanii nan taʼa.
21 As for those whose heart is going to the heart Of their detestable things and their abominations, I have put their way on their head, A declaration of Lord YHWH.”
Warra qalbiin isaanii fakkiiwwan isaanii kanneen faayidaa hin qabnee fi waaqota isaanii tolfamoo jibbisiisoo sanaan fudhatame garuu ani waan isaan hojjetan matuma isaaniitti nan deebisa jedha Waaqayyo Gooftaan.”
22 And the cherubim lift up their wings, and the wheels [are] alongside them, and the glory of the God of Israel [is] over them above.
Ergasiis kiirubeeliin qoochoowwan isaanii diriirfatan; geengoowwanis isaan cina turan; ulfinni Waaqa Israaʼel immoo isaan gubbaadhaan ture.
23 And the glory of YHWH goes up from off the midst of the city, and stands on the mountain, that [is] on the east of the city.
Ulfinni Waaqayyoos magaalaa keessaa ol baʼee tulluu baʼa magaalattiitiin jiru gubbaadhaan dhaabate.
24 And [the] Spirit has lifted me up, and brings me to Chaldea, to the expulsion, in a vision, by [the] Spirit of God, and the vision that I have seen goes up from off me;
Hafuurri ol na fuudhee mulʼata Hafuura Waaqaatiin gara boojiʼamtoota biyya Baabilon jiraniitti na fide. Ergasiis mulʼanni ani argee ture sun na dhiisee ol baʼe;
25 and I speak to the expulsion all the matters of YHWH that He has showed me.
anis waan Waaqayyo na argisiise hunda boojiʼamtootatti nan hime.
