< Ezekiel 4 >

1 “And you, son of man, take a brick for yourself, and you have put it before you, and have carved a city on it—Jerusalem,
“Koro, wuod dhano, kaw matafare kendo ikete e nyimi mi igor dala maduongʼ mar Jerusalem kuome.
2 and have placed a siege against it, and built a fortification against it, and poured out a mound against it, and placed camps against it, indeed, set battering-rams against it all around.
Bangʼe kuny buche molwore duto, mi idhurne lowo kendo iketne kambe mag jolweny moikore monje, kod lodi mitwomogo ohinga.
3 And you, take an iron pan for yourself, and you have made it a wall of iron between you and the city; and you have prepared your face against it, and it has been in a siege, indeed, you have laid siege against it. It [is] a sign to the house of Israel.
Bangʼ mano, kaw tawo mar nyinyo mondo ichungi kaka ohinga mar nyinyo e kindi gi dala, eka ilokri ichom wangʼi kuome. Ibiro gone agengʼa, to adwaro ni ipim kaka ibiro goyone agengʼa, kaka ranyisi ni dhood Israel.
4 And you, lie on your left side, and you have placed the iniquity of the house of Israel on it; the number of the days that you lie on it, you bear their iniquity.
“Bangʼe inind gi bathi koracham kendo ket richo mar dhood Israel kuomi. Nyaka itingʼ richogi kuom ndalo mininde gi bathigo duto.
5 And I have laid the years of their iniquity on you, the number of days, three hundred and ninety days; and you have borne the iniquity of the house of Israel.
Aseketoni kar romb odiechiengʼ marom gi higni magisetimoe richo. Omiyo ibiro tingʼo richo mag dhood Israel kuom ndalo 390.
6 And you have completed these, and have lain on your right side, a second time, and have borne the iniquity of the house of Judah forty days—a day for a year—a day for a year I have appointed to you.
“Kisetieko mano to chak inind piny kendo; to koro tim kamano gi bathi korachwich, mondo itingʼ richo mag dhood Juda. Aseketoni ndalo 40, ka odiechiengʼ kodiechiengʼ ochungʼ kar higa achiel.
7 And to the siege of Jerusalem you prepare your face, and your arm [is] uncovered, and you have prophesied concerning it.
Lok wangʼi ochom agengʼa mar Jerusalem kendo irie badi kikoro wach kuome.
8 And behold, I have put thick bands on you, and you do not turn from side to side until your completing the days of your siege.
Abiro tweyi gi tonde ma ok inyal lokori koni gi koni, nyaka chop itieki ndalogi mag goyo agengʼa.
9 And you, take for yourself wheat, and barley, and beans, and lentiles, and millet, and spelt, and you have put them in one vessel, and made them for bread for yourself; the number of the days that you are lying on your side—three hundred and ninety days—you eat it.
“To in kaw ngano gi shairi gi oganda kod ngʼor gi bel kod mariwa. Ketgi e dag keno kendo ti kodgi kuom losoni makati. Cham makatino kuom ndalo mia adek gi piero ochiko mibiro bedo kinindo gi bathi konchiel.
10 And your food that you eat [is] by weight, twenty shekels daily; from time to time you eat it.
Pim chiemo moromo achiel kuom abich mar kilo mibiro chamo odiechiengʼ kodiechiengʼ, kendo chiem mana kiluwo chenro mar chiemo miloso.
11 And you drink water by measure, a sixth part of the hin; from time to time you drink [it].
Pi bende ibiro modho mana mopim, nus lita odiechiengʼ kodiechiengʼ, kiluwo chenro miloso mar modho.
12 And you eat it [as] barley-cake, and it with dung—the filth of man—you bake before their eyes.”
Cham chiemono mana kaka dicham kek mar shairi, kendo tede e nyim ji ka gineni, kitiyo gi oko dhano kaka owuoyo.”
13 And YHWH says, “Thus the sons of Israel eat their defiled bread among the nations to where I drive them.”
Jehova Nyasaye nowacho niya, “Kamano e kaka dhood Israel biro chamo chiemo mogak e dier ogendini kuma abiro terogie twech.”
14 And I say, “Aah! Lord YHWH, behold, my soul is not defiled, and carcass, and torn thing, I have not eaten from my youth, even until now; nor has abominable flesh come into my mouth.”
Eka nawacho niya, “Yaye, Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto! Nyaka nene pok adwanyora kamano. Nyaka aa e tin-na pok achamo gima oyud kotho, kata ma le mag bungu okidho. Ringʼo mogak moro amora pok odonjo e dhoga nyaka nene.”
15 And He says to me, “See, I have given to you bullock’s dung instead of man’s dung, and you have made your bread by it.”
To nowachona niya, “Onge wach, kara abiro yieni mondo ited makatini e maj owuoch dhiangʼ kar tedo gi oko mar dhano kaka owuoyo.”
16 And He says to me, “Son of man, behold, I am breaking the staff of bread in Jerusalem, and they have eaten bread by weight and with fear; and water by measure and with astonishment, they drink;
Eka nowachona niya, “Wuod dhano, abiro gengʼo chiemo kik donji Jerusalem. Ji biro chamo chiemo mopim ka gin gi parruok mathoth kendo gibiro modho pi mopim ka midhiero omakogi,
17 so that they lack bread and water, and have been astonished with one another, and been consumed in their iniquity.”
nikech chiemo gi pi nodog manok. Ngʼato ka ngʼato nowuor kaka nyawadgi chal, kendo dendgi nochire nikech richogi.
