Ezekiel 15

1 The word of the LORD came to me, saying,

Ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa sì tọ̀ mí wá wí pé:

2 "Son of man, what is the vine tree more than any tree, the vine-branch which is among the trees of the forest?

“Ọmọ ènìyàn, báwo ni igi àjàrà ṣe dára ju igi mìíràn lọ tàbí jù ẹ̀ka àjàrà tó wà láàrín igi yòókù nínú igbó?

3 Shall wood be taken of it to make any work? Or will men take a pin of it to hang any vessel thereon?

Ǹjẹ́ a wa lè mú igi lára rẹ̀ ṣe nǹkan tí ó wúlò bí? Tàbí kí ènìyàn fi ṣe èèkàn tí yóò fi nǹkan kọ́?

4 Look, it is cast into the fire for fuel; the fire has devoured both its ends, and its midst is burned: is it profitable for any work?

Lẹ́yìn èyí, ṣe a jù ú sínú iná gẹ́gẹ́ bí epo ìdáná, gbogbo igun rẹ̀ jóná pẹ̀lú àárín rẹ, ṣé o wà le wúlò fún nǹkan kan mọ́?

5 Look, when it was whole, it was meet for no work: how much less, when the fire has devoured it, and it is burned, shall it yet be meet for any work.

Tí kò bá wúlò fún nǹkan kan nígbà tó wà lódidi, báwo ni yóò ṣe wá wúlò nígbà tí iná ti jó o, tó sì dúdú nítorí èéfín?

6 "Therefore thus says the LORD: 'As the vine tree among the trees of the forest, which I have given to the fire for fuel, so will I give the inhabitants of Jerusalem.

“Nítorí náà, báyìí ni Olúwa Olódùmarè wí, bí mo ṣe sọ igi àjàrà tó wà láàrín àwọn igi inú igbó yòókù di igi ìdáná, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni Èmi yóò ṣe ṣe gbogbo ènìyàn tó ń gbé Jerusalẹmu.

7 I will set my face against them; they shall go forth from the fire, but the fire shall devour them; and you shall know that I am the LORD, when I set my face against them.

Èmi yóò dojúkọ wọ́n. Bó tilẹ̀ jẹ́ pé wọn ti jáde kúrò nínú iná kan, síbẹ̀ iná mìíràn yóò pàpà jó wọn. Nígbà tí mo bá sì dojúkọ wọ́n, ẹ̀yin yóò sì mọ̀ pé, Èmi ni Olúwa.

8 I will make the land desolate, because they have committed a trespass,' says the LORD."

Èmi yóò sọ ilé náà di ahoro nítorí ìwà àìṣòótọ́ wọn, ni Olúwa Olódùmarè wí.”
