Ezekiel 16
1 And there is a word of YHWH to me, saying,
Okwu nke Onyenwe anyị bịakwutere m,
2 “Son of man, cause Jerusalem to know her abominations, and you have said,
“Nwa nke mmadụ, gwa Jerusalem okwu mee ka ọ mara banyere ndụ ya niile rụrụ arụ
3 Thus said Lord YHWH to Jerusalem: Your birth and your nativity [Are] of the land of the Canaanite, Your father the Amorite, and your mother a Hittite.
sị ya, ‘Ihe ndị a ka Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị na-agwa Jerusalem: Ịpụta ụwa gị na ọmụmụ gị bụ nʼala ndị Kenan; nna gị bụ onye Amọrị, nne gị bụ onye Het.
4 As for your nativity, in the day you were born, Your navel has not been cut, And you were not washed in water for ease, And you have not been salted at all, And you have not been swaddled at all.
Nʼụbọchị ahụ a mụrụ gị, ebeghị otubo gị, ọ dịghị onye lekọtara gị maọbụ jiri mmiri saa gị ahụ ị sachapụ gị unyi maọbụ tee gị nnu, maọbụ jiri akwa kechie gị.
5 No eye has had pity on you, to do any of these to you, To have compassion on you, And you are cast on the face of the field, With loathing of your soul In the day you were born!
Ọ dịghị onye nwere obi ebere nʼebe ị nọ. Ọ dịghị onye ihe banyere gị metụrụ nʼobi, ọ dịkwaghị onye lekọtara gị. Kama nʼụbọchị ahụ a mụrụ gị a tufuru gị nʼọhịa, nʼihi na-eledara gị anya.
6 And I pass over by you, And I see you trodden down in your blood, And I say to you in your blood, Live! Indeed, I say to you in your blood, Live!
“‘Ma mgbe m si nʼebe ahụ ị tọgbọ na-agafe, ahụrụ m gị ka i chịlịri ụkwụ gị, ọbara jukwara gị ahụ, dịka ị dina nʼime ọbara gị. Nʼoge ahụ, ihe pụrụ m nʼọnụ bụ, “Dị ndụ.”
7 I have made you a myriad as the shoot of the field, And you are multiplied, and are great, And come in with an excellent adornment, Breasts have been formed, and your hair has grown—And you, naked and bare!
Emere m ka ị too dịka osisi na-eto eto nʼime ọhịa. I tolitere, too ogologo ma tozuo oke na nwanyị, ị kpụrụ ara, agịrị isi gị pukwara, ma gị onwe gị gba ọtọ.
8 And I pass over by you, and I see you, And behold, your time [is] a time of loves, And I spread My skirt over you, And I cover your nakedness, And I swear to you, and come into a covenant with you, A declaration of Lord YHWH, And you become Mine.
“‘Emesịa, a gafere m nʼakụkụ gị, mgbe m lere gị anya ahụrụ m na i tozuola onye mmadụ ga-ahụ nʼanya. A gbasapụrụ m akụkụ akwa m nʼahụ gị, jiri ya kpuchie ọtọ gị. Aṅụrụ m gị iyi, mụ na gị gbara ndụ, ị ghọkwara nke m. Ka Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị kwupụtara.
9 And I wash you with water, And I wash away your blood from off you, And I anoint you with oil.
“‘Eji m mmiri saa gị ahụ, sachapụ ọbara dị gị nʼahụ, teekwa gị mmanụ.
10 And I clothe you with embroidery, And I shoe you with tachash [skin], And I gird you with fine linen, And I cover you with figured silk.

13 And you put on gold and silver, And your clothing [is] fine linen, And figured silk and embroidery, You have eaten fine flour, and honey, and oil, And you are very, very beautiful, And go prosperously to the kingdom.

15 And you trust in your beauty, And go whoring because of your renown, And pour out your whoredoms on everyone passing by—to him [that would have] it.
“‘Ma ị tụkwasịrị mma gị obi, jiri nʼihi na a mara aha gị ghọọ onye akwụna. I wekwaara onwe gị nye nwoke ọbụla gabigara mee ka mma gị bụrụ nke ya.

19 And My bread, that I gave to you, Fine flour, and oil, and honey, that I caused you to eat. You have even set it before them, For a refreshing fragrance—thus it is, A declaration of Lord YHWH.

20 And you take your sons and your daughters whom you have born to Me, And sacrifice them to them for food. Is it a little thing because of your whoredoms,
“‘Ụmụ niile ị mụtaara m, nwoke na nwanyị, ka i ji chụọrọ arụsị gị aja ka ha rie. Ọ bụ na ịgba akwụna gị ezughịrị gị?

22 And with all your abominations and your whoredoms, You have not remembered the days of your youth, When you were naked and bare, You were trodden down in your blood!

23 And it comes to pass, after all your wickedness (Woe, woe, to you—a declaration of Lord YHWH),
“‘Ahụhụ, ahụhụ, ga-adịrị gị, ka Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị kwubiri. Tinyekwara ajọ omume gị niile,

25 At every head of the way you have built your high place, And you make your beauty abominable, And open wide your feet to everyone passing by, And multiply your whoredoms,

27 And behold, I have stretched out My hand against you, And I diminish your portion, And give you to the desire of those hating you, The daughters of the Philistines, Who are ashamed of your wicked way.

28 And you go whoring to sons of Asshur, Without your being satisfied, And you go whoring with them, And also—you have not been satisfied.

30 How weak [is] your heart, A declaration of Lord YHWH, In your doing all these, The work of a domineering, whorish woman.
“‘Iwe m dị ọkụ megide gị, otu a ka Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị kwupụtara. Mgbe ị na-eme ihe ndị a, ị na-eme ha nnọọ dị ka onye akwụna nke ihere adịghị eme.
31 In your building your arch at the head of every way, You have made your high place in every broad place, And have not been as a whore deriding a wage.

“‘Nʼezie, ị bụ nwanyị na-akwa iko ma ị nọ na di, onye na-anabata ndị ikom ọzọ karịa di ya!
33 They give a gift to all whores, And you have given your gifts to all your lovers, And bribe them to come in to you, From all around—in your whoredoms.

34 And you are opposite from [other] women in your whoredoms, That none go whoring after you; And in your giving a wage, And a wage has not been given to you; Therefore you are the opposite.

35 Therefore, O whore, hear a word of YHWH!
“‘Nʼihi nke a, gị nwanyị akwụna, nụrụ okwu Onyenwe anyị!
36 Thus said Lord YHWH: Because of your bronze being poured forth, And your nakedness is revealed in your whoredoms near your lovers, And near all the idols of your abominations, And according to the blood of your sons, Whom you have given to them;
Nke a bụ ihe Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị kwuru, Nʼihi na ị wụpụrụ agụụ nke anụ ahụ gị, kpugheekwa ọtọ gị nʼịkwa iko gị nke gị na ndị ị hụrụ nʼanya na-akwa, na nʼihi arụsị gị niile rụrụ arụ, nakwa nʼihi na ị nyere ha ọbara ụmụ gị,
37 Therefore, behold, I am assembling all your lovers, To whom you have been sweet, And all whom you have loved, Besides all whom you have hated; And I have assembled them by you all around, And have revealed your nakedness to them, And they have seen all your nakedness.
nʼihi ya, aga m achịkọta ndị niile bụ ndị ahụ niile ị hụrụ nʼanya, ndị gị na ha na-enwe obi ụtọ, ndị ị hụrụ nʼanya, ma ndị ị kpọrọ asị. Aga m achịkọta ha site gburugburu gị imegide gị, gbaa gị ọtọ nʼihu ha, ka ha hụ ọtọ gị niile.
38 And I have judged you—judgments of adultresses, And of women shedding blood, And have given you blood, fury, and jealousy.
Aga m ata gị ahụhụ a na-ata ndị inyom na-akwa iko, na ndị inyom na-egbu mmadụ. Aga m eme ka ịbọ ọbọ ọbara nke ọnụma m, ya na ekworo m, bịakwasị gị.
39 And I have given you into their hand, And they have thrown down your arch, And they have broken down your high places, And they have stripped you of your garments, And they have taken your beautiful vessels, And they have left you naked and bare.
Aga m enyefe gị nʼaka ndị ahụ ị hụrụ nʼanya, bụ ọtụtụ mba ahụ dị iche iche. Ha ga-ebibi gị, kwada ụlọ ịkwa iko gị, na ụlọ arụsị gị niile dị elu, gbaa gị ọtọ, narakwa gị uwe gị niile, na ihe ịchọ mma gị niile, hapụ gị ka ihere mee gị.

Ha ga-akpọta igwe mmadụ ga-emegide gị, ndị ga-atụ gị nkume, jirikwa mma agha ha bọkasịa gị.
41 And burned your houses with fire, And done judgments in you before the eyes of many women, And I have caused you to cease from going whoring, And also, you no longer give a wage.

43 Because you have not remembered the days of your youth, And give trouble to Me in all these, Therefore I also—behold—I put your way on [your own] head, A declaration of Lord YHWH, And you will not have done—have done this wickedness above all your abominations.
“‘Ebe ọ bụ na ị chetaghị ụbọchị ndị ahụ niile, mgbe ị dị nʼagbọghọbịa, ma i ji ihe ọjọọ ndị a niile ị na-eme kpasuo m iwe. Ya mere, aghaghị m ịkwụghachi gị dịka mmehie gị si dị.

44 Behold, everyone using the allegory against you, Uses [this] allegory concerning [you], saying, As the mother—her daughter!
“‘Lee, onye ọbụla na-atụ ilu, ga-atụ ilu a banyere gị sị, “Otu ọ dị nne ka ọ dị nwa ya nwanyị.”
45 You [are] your mother’s daughter, Loathing her husband and her sons, And you [are] your sisters’ sister, Who loathed their husbands and their sons, Your mother [is] a Hittite, and your father an Amorite.
Nʼezie, ị dị ka nne gị, nʼihi na nne gị kpọrọ di ya na ụmụ ya asị. Ị dịkwa ka ụmụnne gị ndị inyom. Ha na-akpọ di ha na ụmụ ha asị. Nʼezie, nne gị bụ onye Het, nna gị bụkwa onye Amọrị.
46 And your older sister [is] Samaria, she and her daughters, Who is dwelling at your left hand, And your younger sister, who is dwelling on your right hand, [is] Sodom and her daughters.

47 And you have not walked in their ways, And done according to their abominations, It has been loathed as a little thing, Indeed, you do more corruptly than they in all your ways.

49 Behold, this has been the iniquity of your sister Sodom, Arrogancy, fullness of bread, and quiet ease, Have been to her and to her daughters, And the hand of the afflicted and needy She has not strengthened.
“‘Mmehie nwanne gị nwanyị Sọdọm bụ nganga, na umengwụ, na oke oriri. Ha jụrụ inyere ndị nọ na mkpa, na ndị agụụ na-agụ nọ nʼọnụ ụzọ ha aka.

“‘Ma otu ọ dị, aga m eme ka ọganihu nke Sọdọm na ụmụ ya ndị inyom, na ọganihu nke Sameria na ụmụ ya ndị inyom, na ọganihu nke gị dịghachikwa nʼetiti ha:

“‘Nke a bụ ihe Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị sịrị, Aga m akwụghachi gị dịka omume gị si dị, nʼihi na ị ledara iyi ahụ ị ṅụrụ anya site nʼimebi ọgbụgba ndụ ahụ.
