< Ezekiel 11 >

1 Moreover the Spirit lifted me up, and brought me to the east gate of Jehovah's house, which looks eastward: and see, at the door of the gate twenty-five men; and I saw in their midst Jaazaniah the son of Azzur, and Pelatiah the son of Benaiah, officials of the people.
Hĩndĩ ĩyo Roho akĩnjoya na igũrũ, akĩndwara kĩhingo-inĩ kĩa nyũmba ya Jehova kĩrĩa kĩerekeire mwena wa irathĩro. Hau itoonyero-inĩ rĩu rĩa kĩhingo kĩu nĩ haarĩ arũme mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ na atano, na gatagatĩ-inĩ kao ngĩona Jazania mũrũ wa Azuri, na Pelatia mũrũ wa Benaia, arĩa maarĩ atongoria a kĩrĩndĩ.
2 He said to me, "Son of man, these are the men who devise iniquity, and who give wicked counsel in this city;
Jehova akĩnjĩĩra atĩrĩ, “Mũrũ wa mũndũ, aya nĩo arũme arĩa marathugunda waganu, na makaheana kĩrĩra kĩa waganu itũũra-inĩ rĩĩrĩ inene.
3 who say, 'The time is not near to build houses: this is the caldron, and we are the meat.'
Moigaga atĩrĩ, ‘Githĩ ihinda rĩtigũkinya o narua rĩa gwaka nyũmba? Itũũra rĩĩrĩ inene nĩ nyũngũ ya kũruga, na ithuĩ nĩ ithuĩ nyama.’
4 Therefore prophesy against them, prophesy, son of man."
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio marathĩre ũhoro wa kũmookĩrĩra; marathĩre ũhoro, wee mũrũ wa mũndũ.”
5 The Spirit of Jehovah fell on me, and he said to me, "Speak, Thus says Jehovah: 'Thus you have said, house of Israel; for I know the things that come into your mind.
Ningĩ Roho wa Jehova agĩũka igũrũ rĩakwa, akĩnjĩĩra njuge atĩrĩ, “Ũũ nĩguo Jehova ekuuga: Ũguo nĩguo mũroiga, inyuĩ andũ a nyũmba ya Isiraeli, no niĩ-rĩ, nĩnjũũĩ ũrĩa ũrĩ meciiria-inĩ manyu.
6 You have multiplied your slain in this city, and you have filled its streets with the slain.'
Nĩmũũragĩte andũ aingĩ itũũra-inĩ rĩĩrĩ inene, na mũkaiyũria ciimba njĩra-inĩ ciarĩo.
7 Therefore thus says Jehovah: 'Your slain whom you have laid in its midst, they are the meat, and this is the caldron; but I will bring you out of it.
“Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, ũũ nĩguo Mwathani Jehova ekuuga: Ciimba icio mũikĩtie kũu nĩcio nyama, narĩo itũũra rĩĩrĩ inene nĩrĩo nyũngũ, no Niĩ nĩngũmũingata muume kuo.
8 You have feared the sword; and I will bring the sword on you,' says Jehovah.
Inyuĩ nĩmwĩtigĩrĩte rũhiũ rwa njora, na rũhiũ rũu rwa njora no ruo ngaamũũkĩrĩra naruo, ũguo nĩguo Mwathani Jehova ekuuga.
9 'I will bring you forth out of its midst, and deliver you into the hands of strangers, and will execute judgments among you.
Nĩngamũrutũrũra muume itũũra-inĩ inene, na ndĩmũneane moko-inĩ ma andũ a kũngĩ, na ndĩmũherithie.
10 You shall fall by the sword; I will judge you in the border of Israel; and you shall know that I am Jehovah.
Inyuĩ mũkooragwo na rũhiũ rwa njora, na nĩngamũtuĩra ciira kũu mĩhaka-inĩ ya Isiraeli. Hĩndĩ ĩyo nĩmũkamenya atĩ niĩ nĩ niĩ Jehova.
11 This shall not be your caldron, neither shall you be the meat in its midst; I will judge you in the border of Israel;
Itũũra rĩĩrĩ inene rĩtigatuĩka nyũngũ harĩ inyuĩ, kana inyuĩ mũtuĩke nyama thĩinĩ warĩo; nĩngamũtuĩra ciira kũu mĩhaka-inĩ ya Isiraeli.
12 and you shall know that I am Jehovah: for you have not walked in my statutes, neither have you executed my ordinances, but have done after the ordinances of the nations that are around you.'"
Na inyuĩ nĩmũkamenya atĩ nĩ niĩ Jehova, nĩ ũndũ mũtirũmĩrĩire kĩrĩra kĩa watho wakwa wa kũrũmĩrĩrwo, kana mũkarũmia mawatho makwa, no mwĩkĩte maũndũ maringaine na ma ndũrĩrĩ iria imũrigiicĩirie.”
13 It happened, when I prophesied, that Pelatiah the son of Benaiah died. Then I fell down on my face, and cried with a loud voice, and said, "Ah, Jehovah. Will you make a full end of the remnant of Israel?"
Na rĩrĩa ndaarathaga, Pelatia mũrũ wa Benaia agĩkua. Hĩndĩ ĩyo ngĩĩgũithia ngĩturumithia ũthiũ thĩ, ngĩanĩrĩra na mũgambo mũnene, ngĩũria atĩrĩ, “Hĩ, Mwathani Jehova! Nĩũkũniina matigari ma Isiraeli biũ?”
14 The word of Jehovah came to me, saying,
Kiugo kĩa Jehova nĩkĩanginyĩrĩire, ngĩĩrwo atĩrĩ,
15 "Son of man, your brothers, the men of your relatives, and all the house of Israel, all of them, to whom the inhabitants of Jerusalem have said, 'Go far away from Jehovah. This land has been given to us for a possession.'
“Mũrũ wa mũndũ, ariũ a thoguo, ariũ a thoguo arĩa marĩ a rũrĩra rwanyu na nyũmba yothe ya Isiraeli, acio nĩo andũ a Jerusalemu maarĩtie ũhoro wao makoiga atĩrĩ, ‘Marĩ haraaya mũno na Jehova; bũrũri ũyũ nĩ ithuĩ twaheirwo ũtuĩke witũ.’
16 Therefore say, 'Thus says Jehovah: "Whereas I have removed them far off among the nations, and whereas I have scattered them among the countries, yet will I be to them a sanctuary for a little while in the countries where they have come."'
“Nĩ ũndũ ũcio uga atĩrĩ: ‘Mwathani Jehova ekuuga ũũ: O na gũtuĩka nĩndamatwarithirie kũraya gatagatĩ-inĩ ka ndũrĩrĩ, na ngĩmahurunjĩra mabũrũri-inĩ, no niĩ nduĩkĩte handũ-hao-harĩa-haamũre, mabũrũri-inĩ kũu mathiĩte, gwa kahinda kanini.’
17 Therefore say, 'Thus says Jehovah: "I will gather you from the peoples, and assemble you out of the countries where you have been scattered, and I will give you the land of Israel."
“Nĩ ũndũ ũcio uga atĩrĩ: ‘Ũũ nĩguo Mwathani Jehova ekuuga: Nĩngamũcookanĩrĩria kuuma ndũrĩrĩ-inĩ, na ndĩmũrute mabũrũri-inĩ kũrĩa mwahurunjirwo, na ndĩmũcookerie bũrũri wa Isiraeli rĩngĩ.’
18 They shall come there, and they shall take away all the detestable things of it and all its abominations from there.
“Nĩmagacooka kuo, na meeherie mĩhiano ĩyo yakuo mĩthũku yothe, na mĩhianano ĩyo ĩrĩ magigi.
19 I will give them one heart, and I will put a new spirit within you; and I will take the stony heart out of their flesh, and will give them a heart of flesh;
Nĩngamahe ũũrũmwe wa ngoro, na njĩkĩre roho mwerũ thĩinĩ wao; nĩngeheria ũmũ wa ngoro thĩinĩ wao ndĩmahe ngoro njororo ta nyama.
20 that they may walk in my statutes, and keep my ordinances, and do them: and they shall be my people, and I will be their God.
Ningĩ nĩmakarũmagĩrĩra kĩrĩra gĩakwa gĩa kũrũmĩrĩrwo, na marũmagie mawatho makwa. Nĩmagatuĩka andũ akwa, na niĩ nduĩke Ngai wao.
21 But as for them whose heart walks after the heart of their detestable things and their abominations, I will bring their way on their own heads,' says Jehovah."
No rĩrĩ, ha ũhoro wa andũ arĩa ngoro ciao ciĩyamũrĩire mĩhiano ĩyo mĩũru na mĩhianano ĩyo ĩrĩ magigi, nĩngatũma o ene macookererwo nĩ ũũru ũrĩa mekĩte, ũguo nĩguo Mwathani Jehova ekuuga.”
22 Then the cherubim lifted up their wings, and the wheels were beside them; and the glory of the God of Israel was over them above.
Hĩndĩ ĩyo akerubi acio, marĩ na magũrũ ma ngaari mĩena-inĩ, magĩtambũrũkia mathagu mao, naguo riiri wa Ngai wa Isiraeli warĩ igũrũ rĩao.
23 The glory of Jehovah went up from the midst of the city, and stood on the mountain which is on the east side of the city.
Riiri ũcio wa Jehova ũkĩambata uumĩte thĩinĩ wa itũũra rĩu inene na ũgĩikara igũrũ rĩa kĩrĩma kĩrĩa kĩarĩ mwena wa irathĩro warĩo.
24 The Spirit lifted me up, and brought me in the vision by the Spirit of God into Chaldea, to them of the captivity. So the vision that I had seen went up from me.
Roho akĩnjoya na igũrũ, akĩndwara kũrĩ andũ arĩa maatahĩtwo magatwarwo bũrũri wa Babuloni, o ndĩ thĩinĩ wa kĩoneki kĩu ndoonetio nĩ Roho ũcio wa Ngai. Hĩndĩ ĩyo kĩoneki kĩu ndoonetio gĩkĩnjeherera,
25 Then I spoke to them of the captivity all the things that Jehovah had shown me.
na niĩ ngĩĩra andũ acio maatahĩtwo ũhoro wothe ũrĩa Jehova aanyonetie.
