< Ezekiel 13 >
1 The word of Jehovah came to me, saying,
Okwu Onyenwe anyị ruru m ntị, sị,
2 "Son of man, prophesy against the prophets of Israel who prophesy, and say to those who prophesy out of their own heart, 'Hear the word of Jehovah:
“Nwa nke mmadụ, buo amụma megide ndị amụma nke Izrel ndị na-ebu amụma ugbu a, gwa ndị amụma ahụ na-ekwu ihe sitere ha nʼuche: ‘Nụrụnụ okwu nke Onyenwe anyị.
3 Thus says Jehovah, "Woe to the foolish prophets, who follow their own spirit, and have seen nothing.
Otu a ka Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị kwuru, Ahụhụ ga-adịrị ndị amụma nzuzu ndị na-agbaso mmụọ nke onwe ha, ndị ọ dịghị ihe ha na-ahụ.
4 Israel, your prophets have been like foxes in the waste places.
Gị Izrel, lee, ndị amụma gị niile dị ka nkịta ọhịa bi na mkpọmkpọ ebe.
5 You have not gone up into the breaches, neither built up the wall for the house of Israel, to stand in the battle in the day of Jehovah."
Unu arịgobeghị na oghere jupụtara na mgbidi maọbụ rụzie mgbidi aja ndị ahụ maka nchekwa ndị Izrel ka o nwee ike kwudosie ike nʼụbọchị agha nke Onyenwe anyị.
6 They have seen falsehood and lying divination, who say, "Jehovah says"; but Jehovah has not sent them: and they have made men to hope that the word would be confirmed.
Ọhụ ha bụ ụgha, otu a, ịjụ ase ha bụkwa ụgha, ha na-asị, “Onyenwe anyị kwupụtara,” ebe Onyenwe anyị ezipụghị ha, ha na-agakwa nʼihu na-atụ anya ka o mezuo okwu ha.
7 "Haven't you seen a false vision, and haven't you spoken a lying divination, in that you say, "Jehovah says"; but I have not spoken?
Ọ bụghị ọhụ ụgha ka unu hụrụ, ọ bụghịkwa okwu ịjụ ase ụgha ka unu kwuru, mgbe unu na-asị, “Otu a ka Onyenwe anyị kwupụtara,” nʼagbanyeghị na mụ onwe m ekwughị okwu?
8 Therefore thus says Jehovah: Because you have spoken falsehood, and seen lies, therefore, look, I am against you, says Jehovah.
“‘Nʼihi ya, Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị sịrị, aga m ebibi unu nʼihi okwu ụgha na ọhụ ụgha unu niile. Edoola m onwe m imegide unu, otu a ka Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị kwubiri.
9 My hand shall be against the prophets who see false visions, and who divine lies: they shall not be in the council of my people, neither shall they be written in the writing of the house of Israel, neither shall they enter into the land of Israel; and you shall know that I am Jehovah.
Aka m ga-emegide ndị amụma niile ahụ bụ ndị na-ahụ ọhụ ụgha, na-agbakwa afa ụgha. Ha a gaghị esonye na otu ọgbakọ ndị m maọbụ bụrụ ndị agụnyekọrọ nʼakwụkwọ ndekọta aha ụlọ nke Izrel, ha agaghị abakwa nʼala ndị Izrel. Mgbe ahụ unu ga-amata na mụ onwe m bụ Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị.
10 Because, even because they have seduced my people, saying, 'Peace'; and there is no peace; and when one builds up a wall, look, they plaster it with whitewash:
“‘Nʼihi na ha eduhiela ndị m, mgbe ha na-asị, “Udo,” ebe udo na-adịghị, nʼihi na mgbe e wuru mgbidi na-esighị ike, ndị amụma ndị a jara ha mma, werekwa nzu techie ya.
11 tell those who plaster it with whitewash, that it shall fall: there shall be an overflowing shower; and you, great hailstones, shall fall; and a stormy wind break out.
Ya mere, gwa ndị ahụ jiri nzu techie mgbidi ahụ na ọ ga-ada. Oke mmiri ozuzo nke ga-ezobiga oke ga-ezo, aga m ezitekwa mkpụrụ mmiri dị ukwuu nke ga-ada, na oke ifufe nke ga-akwada ya.
12 Look, when the wall has fallen, shall it not be said to you, 'Where is the plaster with which you have plastered it?'
Mgbe mgbidi ahụ dara, ndị mmadụ ọ gaghị ajụ, “Olee ebe mgba ọcha ahụ ị ji techie ya dị?”
13 "'"Therefore thus says Jehovah: I will even tear it with a stormy wind in my wrath; and there shall be an overflowing shower in my anger, and great hailstones in wrath to consume it.
“‘Ya mere, Otu a ka Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị kwuru, aga m eji oke ifufe nke ọnụma m, na oke mmiri ozuzo nke iwe m, ma oke akụmmiri nke oke iwe m mebie ya.
14 So will I break down the wall that you have plastered with whitewash, and bring it down to the ground, so that its foundation shall be uncovered; and it shall fall, and you shall be consumed in its midst: and you shall know that I am Jehovah.
Aga m akwada mgbidi ahụ unu tere nzu, aga m emekwa ka ọ daruo ala nke ga-eme ka ahụ ntọala ya anya; ọ ga-adakwasịkwa unu, gwepịa unu. Mgbe ọ dara ọ ga-egbuchapụ unu niile; unu ga-amatakwa na mụ onwe m bụ Onyenwe anyị.
15 Thus will I accomplish my wrath on the wall, and on those who have plastered it with whitewash; and I will tell you, 'The wall is no more, neither those who plastered it;
Otu a ka m ga-esi gosipụta iwe m nʼebe mgbidi ahụ nọ, na nʼahụ ndị ahụ ji nzu techie ya. Aga m asị unu, “Mgbidi ahụ adịghịkwa, otu a ka ọ dịkwa ndị ahụ ji nzu techie ya,
16 to wit, the prophets of Israel who prophesy concerning Jerusalem, and who see visions of peace for her, and there is no peace,'"' says Jehovah."
bụ ndị amụma Izrel ndị ahụ buru amụma nye Jerusalem, ndị hụkwara ya ọhụ udo mgbe udo na-adịghị, otu a ka Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị kwubiri.”’
17 "You, son of man, set your face against the daughters of your people, who prophesy out of their own heart; and prophesy against them,
“Ma ugbu a, gị nwa nke mmadụ, chee ihu nʼebe ụmụada ndị unu nọ, ndị nke na-ebu amụma dị ka o si si ha nʼobi pụta. Buo amụma megide ha
18 and say, 'Thus says Jehovah: "Woe to the women who sew pillows on all elbows, and make kerchiefs for the head of persons of every stature to hunt souls. Will you hunt the souls of my people, and save souls alive for yourselves?
sị, ‘Otu a ka Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị na-ekwu, Ahụhụ dịrị ndị inyom na-adụnye ọgwụ mgbaasị na nkwoji aka ha na-emekwa akwa mgbokwasị nke ikpuchi isi maka ndị mmadụ dị iche iche, iji raata ha. Unu si aṅaa chee na unu ga-echebe ndụ unu mgbe unu buru ụzọ mee ka ndị m maa nʼọnya?
19 You have profaned me among my people for handfuls of barley and for pieces of bread, to kill the souls who should not die, and to save the souls alive who should not live, by your lying to my people who listen to lies."
Unu emeela ka m ghara ịdị nsọ nʼetiti ndị m, nʼihi mkpoju aka ọka balị na iberibe achịcha ole na ole. Nʼihi ya, unu emeela ka ha nwụọ bụ ndị na-ekwesighị ịnwụ anwụ. Unu edebekwala ha ndụ bụ ndị na-ekwesighị ịdị ndụ, site nʼokwu ụgha unu na-agwa ndị m, bụ ndị na-aṅa ntị nʼokwu ụgha.
20 "'Therefore thus says Jehovah: "Look, I am against your pillows, with which you there hunt the souls to make them fly, and I will tear them from your arms; and I will let the souls go, even the souls whom you hunt to make them fly.
“‘Nʼihi nke a, Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị na-ekwu, ana m emegide ọgwụ mgbaasị niile nke unu ji achụ nta mkpụrụobi ndị m dịka nnụnụ. Aga m adọwapụ ha site nʼaka unu, napụtakwa ndị m, bụ ndị unu ji nʼọnya dị ka nnụnụ e tinyere nʼụlọ akpara akpa.
21 Your kerchiefs also will I tear, and deliver my people out of your hand, and they shall be no more in your hand to be hunted; and you shall know that I am Jehovah.
Aga m adọwa akwa mgbokwasị ọgwụ unu, napụta ndị m site nʼaka unu. Ha agaghị amakwa nʼọnya nke ike unu ọzọ. Nʼụzọ dị otu a unu ga-amatakwa na mụ onwe m bụ Onyenwe anyị.
22 Because with lies you have grieved the heart of the righteous, whom I have not made sad; and strengthened the hands of the wicked, that he should not return from his wicked way, and be saved alive:
Nʼihi na ụgha unu emeela ka obi ndị ezi omume daa mba, mgbe ọ na-abụghị uche m na ihe dị otu a ga-eme. Ma unu emeela ka obi ndị ajọ omume sie ike site na nkwa ogologo ndụ unu kwere ha, mee ka ha ghara isite nʼụzọ ọjọọ ha chegharịa ma zọpụta ndụ ha.
23 Therefore you shall no more see false visions, nor practice divination. I will deliver my people out of your hand; and you shall know that I am Jehovah."'"
Nʼihi nke a, unu agaghị ahụkwa ọhụ ụgha ọzọ, maọbụ gbaa afa. M ga-anapụta ndị nke m site nʼaka unu. Mgbe ahụ unu ga-amata na mụ onwe m bụ Onyenwe anyị.’”
