Ezekiel 5
1 “And you, son of man, take a sharp weapon for yourself, take the barber’s razor for yourself, and you have caused [it] to pass over your head, and over your beard, and you have taken weighing scales for yourself, and apportioned them.
Tsiku lina Yehova anandiwuza kuti, “Iwe mwana wa munthu, tsopano tenga lupanga lakuthwa ndipo uligwiritse ntchito ngati lumo lometera. Umete tsitsi ndi ndevu zako. Kenaka utenge sikelo ndipo ugawe tsitsilo patatu.
2 You burn a third part with fire in the midst of the city, at the fullness of the days of the siege; and you have taken the third part, you strike with a weapon around it; and the third part you scatter to the wind, and I draw out a weapon after them.
Kuzinga mzinda kuja kukatha, chimodzi cha zigawo zitatu za tsitsilo uchitenthe pakati pa mzinda. Chigawo chachiwiri uchiduledule ndi lupanga, poyenda muzungulire mzinda wonsewo. Chigawo chachitatu uchimwazire ku mphepo, ndidzachitsata nditasolola lupanga.
3 And you have taken there a few in number—and have bound them in your skirts;
Koma utengeko tsitsi pangʼono, ulimange mu mpindiro wa mkanjo wako.
4 and you take of them again, and have cast them into the midst of the fire, and have burned them in the fire—out of it comes forth a fire to all the house of Israel.”
Pa tsitsi limeneli utapepo lina, uliponye pa moto ndi kulitentha. Moto udzayambira pamenepo mpaka ku nyumba yonse ya Israeli.”
5 Thus said Lord YHWH: “This [is] Jerusalem, I have set her in the midst of the nations, And the lands [are] around her.
Ambuye Yehova akunena kuti, “Uyu ndi Yerusalemu amene ndamuyika pakati pa mitundu ya anthu, ndipo mayiko onse amuzungulira.
6 And she changes My judgments into wickedness more than the nations, And My statutes more than the lands that [are] around her, For they have kicked against My judgments, And My statutes—they have not walked in them.”
Koma anthu a Yerusalemu aphwanya malamulo anga pochita zoyipa kuposa anthu a mitundu ina. Iwo anandipandukira kupambana anthu ena amene awazungulira. Iwo anakana malamulo anga ndipo sanasunge malangizo anga.
7 Therefore, thus said Lord YHWH: “Because of your multiplying above the nations that [are] around you, You have not walked in My statutes, And you have not done My judgments, According to the judgments of the nations that [are] around you, you have not done.”
“Nʼchifukwa chake Ambuye Yehova akuti: Popeza mwakhala osamvera kupambana anthu a mitundu ina amene akuzungulirani, popeza simunatsate malamulo anga kapena kusunga malangizo anga, mʼmalo mwake mwakhala mukutsata makhalidwe a anthu a mitundu ina amene akuzungulirani.
8 Therefore, thus said Lord YHWH: “Behold, I [am] against you, even I, And I have done judgments in your midst, Before the eyes of the nations.
“Tsono Ambuye Yehova akuti: Ine mwini ndikutsutsana nawe, Yerusalemu, choncho Ine ndidzakulangani. Ine ndidzakulangani anthu a mitundu ina akuona.
9 And I have done in you that which I have not done, And the like of which I do not do again, Because of all your abominations.
Chifukwa cha ntchito zanu zonyansa ndidzakulangani ndi chilango chimene sindinakulangeni nacho nʼkale lomwe ndipo sindidzakulangani ndi chofanana nacho mʼtsogolomo.
10 Therefore fathers eat sons in your midst, And sons eat their fathers, And I have done judgments in you, And have scattered all your remnant to every wind.
Tsono pakati panu makolo adzadya ana awo, ndipo ana adzadya makolo awo. Ndidzakulanga ndipo otsala onse ndidzawabalalitsa ku mphepo zonse zinayi.
11 Therefore, [as] I live,” a declaration of Lord YHWH, “Because you have defiled My sanctuary With all your detestable things, And with all your abominations, Therefore I also diminish you, And My eye does not pity, and I do not spare.
Ndithu, pali Ine, akutero Ambuye Yehova Wamoyo, pakuti mwayipitsa Nyumba yanga ndi mafano ano oyipa ndi miyambo yanu yonyansa, Inenso ndidzakulangani. Sindidzakulekererani kapena kukumverani chisoni.
12 Your third part dies by pestilence, And are consumed by famine in your midst, And the third part fall by sword around you, And the third part I scatter to every wind, And I draw out a sword after them.
Chimodzi mwa zigawo zitatu za anthu ako chidzafa ndi mliri, kapena chidzawonongeka ndi njala; chigawo china chidzaphedwa ndi lupanga kunja kwa mzinda, ndipo chigawo china ndidzachibalalitsira ku mphepo zonse zinayi pochita kuchithamangitsa.
13 And My anger has been completed, And I have caused My fury to rest on them, And I have been comforted, And they have known that I, YHWH, have spoken in My zeal, In My completing My fury on them.
“Ndi mmene udzachitire mkwiyo wanga. Ndikadzatsiriza kuwalanga, pamenepo mtima wanga udzakhala pansi. Adzadziwa kuti Ine Yehova ndinawayankhula mwa nsanje ndikadzawalanga.
14 And I give you for a ruin, And for a reproach among nations that [are] around you, Before the eyes of everyone passing by.
“Ndidzakusandutsa iwe bwinja ndi chinthu chonyozeka pakati pa anthu a mitundu ina amene akuzungulira, ndi kwa onse odutsapo
15 And it has been a reproach and a reviling, An instruction and an astonishment, To nations that [are] around you, In My doing judgments in you, In anger and fury, and in furious reproofs, I, YHWH, have spoken.
Udzakhala chinthu chonyozeka ndi chonyogodoledwa. Udzakhala chenjezo ndi chinthu choopsa kwa anthu a mitundu ina amene akuzungulira ndikadzakulanga mokwiya ndi mwaukali ndi kugamula mlandu wako mokwiya. Ine Yehova ndayankhula.
16 In My sending the evil arrows of famine among them, That have been for destruction, That I send to destroy you, And I am adding famine on you, And I have broken your staff of bread.
Pamene ndidzakulasa ndi njala yolasa ngati mivi yoopsa ndi yosakaza ndidzatero nʼcholinga choti ndikuwonongeni. Ndidzagwetsa njalayo pa iwe mowirikiza pochepetsa chakudya chako cha tsiku ndi tsiku.
17 And I have sent famine and evil beasts on you, And they have bereaved you, And pestilence and blood pass over on you, And I bring a sword in against you, I, YHWH, have spoken!”
Ndidzatumiza njala ndi zirombo za kuthengo, ndipo zidzakulanda ana ako. Mliri ndi kuphana zidzakhala pakati pako, ndipo ndidzakubweretsera nkhondo. Ine Yehova ndayankhula.”
