< Ezekiel 24 >

1 And there is a word of YHWH to me, in the ninth year, in the tenth month, on the tenth of the month, saying,
Ní ọdún kẹsànán, oṣù kẹwàá, ọjọ́ kẹwàá, ni ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa tọ̀ mí wá wí pé:
2 “Son of man, write! Write the name of the day for yourself, this very day; the king of Babylon has leaned toward Jerusalem in this very day.
“Ọmọ ènìyàn, kọ ọjọ́ náà sílẹ̀, ọjọ́ náà gan an, nítorí ọba Babeli náà ti da ojú ti Jerusalẹmu ní ọjọ́ yìí gan an.
3 And use an allegory toward the house of rebellion, and you have said to them, Thus said Lord YHWH: To set on the pot, to set [it] on, and also to pour water into it,
Sì pa òwe yìí fún ilé ọlọ́tẹ̀ náà, sọ fún wọn pé: ‘Èyí yìí ni Olúwa Olódùmarè wí: “‘Gbé ìkòkò ìdáná náà ka iná, gbé e ka iná kí o sì da omi sí i nínú.
4 To gather its pieces to it, every good piece, Thigh and shoulder, to fill in the choice of the bones.
Kó àwọn ègé ẹran tí a gé náà sínú rẹ̀, gbogbo àwọn ègé ẹran tí ó tóbi, itan àti apá. Kó àwọn egungun tí ó dára jù sínú rẹ̀,
5 To take the choice of the flock, And also to pile the bones under it, Boil it thoroughly, indeed, cook its bones in its midst.
mú àwọn tí ó jọjú nínú agbo ẹran. Kó àwọn egungun sí abẹ́ ẹ rẹ̀; sì jẹ́ kí ó hó dáradára sì jẹ́ kí àwọn egungun náà bọ̀ nínú rẹ̀.
6 Therefore, thus said Lord YHWH: Woe [to] the city of blood, A pot whose scum [is] in it, And its scum has not come out of it, By piece of it, by piece of it bring it out, a lot has not fallen on it.
Nítorí báyìí ní Olúwa Olódùmarè wí: “‘Ègbé ni fún ìlú ẹlẹ́jẹ̀ náà, fún ìkòkò náà tí èérí rẹ̀ wà nínú rẹ̀, tí èérí kò dà kúrò lójú rẹ̀! Mú ẹran náà jáde ní ekìrí ekìrí má ṣe ṣà wọ́n mú.
7 For her blood has been in her midst, She has set it on a clear place of a rock, She has not poured it on the earth, To cover it over with dust.
“‘Nítorí ẹ̀jẹ̀ tí ó ta sílẹ̀ wà ní àárín rẹ̀; à á sí orí àpáta kan lásán kò dà á sí orí ilẹ̀, níbi ti erùpẹ̀ yóò ti bò ó.
8 To cause fury to come up to take vengeance, I have put her blood on a clear place of a rock—not to be covered.
Láti bá à le jẹ́ kí ìbínú kí ó dé láti gbẹ̀san mo da ẹ̀jẹ̀ rẹ̀ sí orí àpáta kan lásán, kí o ma bà á wà ni bíbò.
9 Therefore, thus said Lord YHWH: Woe [to] the city of blood, indeed, I make the pile great.
Nítorí náà báyìí ni Olúwa Olódùmarè wí: “‘Ègbé ni fún ìlú ẹlẹ́jẹ̀ náà! Èmi pàápàá yóò jẹ́ kí òkìtì iná náà tóbi.
10 Make the wood abundant, Kindle the fire, consume the flesh, And make the compound, And let the bones be burned.
Nítorí náà kó igi náà jọ sí i, kí o sì fi iná sí i. Ṣe ẹran náà dáradára, fi tùràrí dùn ún; kí o sì jẹ́ kí egungun náà jóná.
11 And cause it to stand empty on its coals, So that its bronze is hot and burning, Its uncleanness has been melted in its midst, Its scum is consumed.
Lẹ́yìn náà gbé òfìfo ìkòkò náà lórí ẹyin iná kí idẹ rẹ̀ lè gbóná, kí ó lè pọ́n àti ki ìfófó rẹ̀ le di yíyọ́ nínú rẹ̀ kí èérí rẹ̀ le jó dànù.
12 She has wearied herself [with] sorrows, And the abundance of her scum does not go out of her, Her scum [is] in the fire.
Ó ti ba gbogbo akitiyan jẹ: èérí rẹ̀ kò sì jáde kúrò lára rẹ̀, èérí náà gan an yóò wà nínú iná.
13 Wickedness [is] in your uncleanness, Because I have cleansed you, And you have not been cleansed, You are not cleansed from your uncleanness again, Until I have caused My fury to rest on you.
“‘Nísinsin yìí èérí rẹ̀ ni ìwà ìfẹ́kúfẹ̀ẹ́ wà. Nítorí mo gbìyànjú láti wẹ̀ ọ́ mọ́, ṣùgbọ́n ìwọ kò sì mọ́ kúrò nínú ìwà ìfẹ́kúfẹ̀ẹ́ rẹ, a kì yóò sì tún wẹ̀ ọ mọ́ kúrò nínú èérí rẹ, títí èmi yóò fi jẹ́ kí ìbínú mi balẹ̀ sórí rẹ̀.
14 I, YHWH, have spoken, It has come, and I have done [it], I do not free, nor do I spare, nor do I regret, According to your ways, and according to your acts, They have judged you, A declaration of Lord YHWH.”
“‘Èmi Olúwa ni ó sọ ọ́, yóò sì ṣe, èmi yóò sì ṣe é. Èmi kì yóò padà sẹ́yìn; bẹ́ẹ̀ ni èmi kì yóò dá sí i, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni èmi kì yóò yí ọkàn mi padà; gẹ́gẹ́ bí ọ̀nà rẹ, àti gẹ́gẹ́ bí iṣẹ́ rẹ, ni wọn yóò dá ọ lẹ́jọ́, ni Olúwa Olódùmarè wí.’”
15 And there is a word of YHWH to me, saying,
Ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa sì tọ̀ mí wá pé:
16 “Son of man, behold, I am taking the desire of your eyes from you by a stroke, and you do not mourn, nor weep, nor let your tear come.
“Ọmọ ènìyàn, kíyèsi i, mo mú ìfẹ́ ojú rẹ kúrò ní ọ̀dọ̀ rẹ, nípa lílù kan. Ṣùgbọ́n ìwọ kò gbọdọ̀ gbààwẹ̀, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ìwọ kò gbọdọ̀ sọkún, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni omijé ojú rẹ kò gbọdọ̀ kán sílẹ̀.
17 Cease to groan [and] make no mourning [for] the dead, bind your headdress on yourself, and put your shoes on your feet, and you do not cover over the upper lip, and you do not eat [the] bread of men.”
Má ṣe sọkún, má ṣe gbààwẹ̀ fún òkú. Wé ọ̀já sí orí rẹ, sì bọ bàtà sí ẹsẹ̀ rẹ, má ṣe bo ètè ìsàlẹ̀ rẹ, ma ṣe jẹ oúnjẹ tí àwọn tí ń ṣọ̀fọ̀ ń jẹ gẹ́gẹ́ bí àṣà.”
18 And I speak to the people in the morning, and my wife dies in the evening, and I do in the morning as I have been commanded.
Báyìí ni mo sọ̀rọ̀ fún àwọn ènìyàn ní òwúrọ̀, ní àṣálẹ́ ìyàwó mi sì kú. Ní òwúrọ̀ ọjọ́ kejì, mo ṣe bí a ti pàṣẹ fún mi.
19 And the people say to me, “Do you not declare to us what these [are] to us, that you are doing?”
Lẹ́yìn náà àwọn ènìyàn bi mí léèrè pé, “Ṣe o kò ni sọ fún wa ohun ti nǹkan wọ̀nyí ní láti ṣe pẹ̀lú wa?”
20 And I say to them, “A word of YHWH has been to me, saying,
Mo sọ báyìí fún wọn pé, “Ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa tọ̀ mí wá wí pé:
21 Say to the house of Israel, Thus said Lord YHWH: Behold, I am defiling My sanctuary, The excellence of your strength, The desire of your eyes, and the pitied of your soul, And your sons and your daughters whom you have left, fall by sword.
Sọ fún ilé Israẹli, ‘Báyìí ní Olúwa Olódùmarè wí: Kíyèsi i, èmi yóò sọ ibi mímọ́ mi di ibi àìmọ́ tayọ agbára yín, ìfẹ́ ojú yín, ìkáàánú yín, àti ọmọ yín ọkùnrin àti àwọn ọmọ yín obìnrin tí ẹ̀yin fi sílẹ̀ sẹ́yìn yóò ṣubú nípa idà.
22 And you have done as I have done, You have not covered over the upper lip, And you do not eat [the] bread of men.

23 And your headdresses [are] on your heads, And your shoes [are] on your feet, You do not mourn nor do you weep, And you have wasted away for your iniquities, And you have howled to one another.

24 And Ezekiel has been for a type to you; according to all that he has done you do. In its coming in—you have known that I [am] Lord YHWH.”

25 “And you, son of man, is it not in the day of My taking from them their strength, the joy of their beauty, the desire of their eyes, and the song of their soul—their sons and their daughters?
“Pẹ̀lúpẹ̀lú ìwọ, Ọmọ ènìyàn, kì yóò ha jẹ́ pé, ní ọjọ́ náà, nígbà ti mo bá gba agbára wọn, ayọ̀ wọn àti ògo wọn, ìfẹ́ ojú wọn, ohun tí wọn gbé ọkàn wọn lé, àti àwọn ọmọ ọkùnrin wọn pẹ̀lú àwọn ọmọ obìnrin wọn kúrò lọ́dọ̀ wọn,

27 In that day your mouth is opened with the escaped and you speak, and are not silent anymore, and you have been for a type to them, and they have known that I [am] YHWH.”
