Ezekiel 23
1 The word of the LORD came again to me, saying,
Okwu nke Onyenwe anyị ruru m ntị, sị m,
2 "Son of man, there were two women, the daughters of one mother:
“Nwa nke mmadụ, ọ dị ndị inyom abụọ nke otu nne mụrụ.
3 and they played the prostitute in Egypt; they played the prostitute in their youth; there were their breasts pressed, and there was handled the bosom of their virginity.
Ha ghọrọ ndị akwụna nʼala Ijipt site na mgbe ha bụ agbọghọ. Nʼala ahụ, a bịagidere ara ha aka, pịakwa ọnụ ara agbọghọ ha aka nʼọnọdụ igwuri egwu.
4 Their names were Oholah the elder, and Oholibah her sister: and they became mine, and they bore sons and daughters. As for their names, Samaria is Oholah, and Jerusalem Oholibah.
Aha nke okenye bụ Ohola. Aha nwanne ya nwanyị bụ Oholiba. Ha bụrịị nkem, ha mụtakwara m ụmụ ndị nwoke na ndị nwanyị. Ohola bụ Sameria, Oholiba bụkwa Jerusalem.
5 "Oholah played the prostitute when she was mine; and she doted on her lovers, on the Assyrians her neighbors,
“Ohola na-agba akwụna mgbe ọ ka bụ nkem. O nwere agụụ ịkwa iko nʼebe ndị niile ọ hụrụ nʼanya nọ, bụ ndị dike nʼagha nke ndị Asịrịa,
6 who were clothed with blue, governors and rulers, all of them desirable young men, horsemen riding on horses.
ndị yi uwe anụnụ, ndịisi ọchịchị na ndị ọchịagha, ha niile bụ ụmụ okorobịa mara mma nʼile anya, na ndịisi agha, ndị ikom na-amakwasị nʼelu ịnyịnya.
7 She bestowed her prostitution on them, the choicest men of Assyria all of them; and on whoever she doted, with all their idols she defiled herself.
O weere onwe ya nyefee nʼaka ndị ikom Asịrịa ogugo ha kachasị elu dịka onye akwụna, merụọkwa onwe ya site nʼife arụsị dị iche iche nke onye ọbụla agụụ ya gụrụ obi ya.
8 Neither has she left her prostitution since the days of Egypt; for in her youth they lay with her, and they handled the bosom of her virginity; and they poured out their prostitution on her.
Ma ọ hapụghị mmụọ akwụna ahụ dị nʼime ya, bụ nke o bidoro nʼIjipt, nke bụ na mgbe ọ bụ agbọghọ ya na ndị ikom dinakọrọ, ha na-apịkwa ọnụ ara agbọghọ ya aka, na-awụkwasịkwa agụụ nke ọchịchọ ọjọọ ha nʼahụ ya.
9 Therefore I delivered her into the hand of her lovers, into the hand of the Assyrians, on whom she doted.
“Nʼihi nke a enyefere m ya nʼaka ndị ahụ hụrụ ya nʼanya, bụ ndị Asịrịa, ndị agụụ ha na-agụ ya.
10 These uncovered her nakedness; they took her sons and her daughters; and her they killed with the sword: and she became a byword among women; for they executed judgments on her.
Ha gbara ya ọtọ, ha kpọọrọ ụmụ ya ndị ikom na ndị inyom, ma ya onwe ya ka ha were mma agha gbuo. Nʼụzọ dị otu a, ọ ghọrọ ihe akụkọ ilu nʼetiti ndị inyom niile, a takwara ya ahụhụ.
11 "Her sister Oholibah saw this, yet was she more corrupt in her doting than she, and in her prostitution which were more than the prostitution of her sister.
“Oholiba bụ nwanne ya nwanyị hụrụ ihe ndị a, ma nʼime agụụ ihe ọjọọ nke gụrụ ya nakwa ịgba akwụna, ọ kpara agwa jọrọ njọ karịa nke nwanne ya nwanyị.
12 She doted on the Assyrians, governors and rulers, her neighbors, clothed most gorgeously, horsemen riding on horses, all of them desirable young men.
Ya onwe ya kwa, agụụ ụmụ Asịrịa gụrụ ya, bụ ndịisi ọchịchị, na ndị ọchịagha, ndị dike nʼagha yi uwe agha dịka o kwesiri, ndị ikom na-amakwasị nʼelu ịnyịnya, ha niile bụ ụmụ okorobịa dị mma nʼile anya.
13 I saw that she was defiled; they both took one way.
Ahụrụ m na ya onwe ya merụkwara onwe ya; ha abụọ si otu ụzọ aga.
14 She increased her prostitution; for she saw men portrayed on the wall, the images of the Chaldeans portrayed with vermilion,
“O gara nʼihu tụkwasị ihe nʼịgba akwụna ya karịa. Ọ hụrụ onyinyo ndị ikom atụnyere nʼahụ aja, bụ onyinyo nke ndị Kaldịa e ji ihe chara uhie uhie sepụta,
15 wearing belts on their waists, with flowing turbans on their heads, all of them looking like officers, after the likeness of the Babylonians in Chaldea, the land of their birth.
ha kere ihe okike nʼukwu ha nakwa akwa okike nʼisi ha; nʼile anya ha niile dịka ndịisi ụgbọ agha ndị Babilọn, Kaldịa bụ ala amụrụ ha.
16 As soon as she saw them she doted on them, and sent messengers to them into Chaldea.
Ngwangwa ọ na-ele ha anya, agụ ha gụrụ ya, o zipụrụ ha ndị ozi na Kaldịa.
17 The Babylonians came to her into the bed of love, and they defiled her with their prostitution, and she was polluted with them, and her soul was alienated from them.
Mgbe ahụ ndị Babilọn bịakwutere ya, nʼelu ihe ndina ịhụnanya, nʼime agụụ nke anụ ahụ ha, ha merụrụ ya. Mgbe ha mesịrị ka ọ bụrụ ihe rụrụ arụ site nʼịkwa iko, o si nʼebe ha nọ wezuga onwe ya nʼọnọdụ ịsọ ha oyi.
18 So she uncovered her prostitution, and uncovered her nakedness: then my soul was alienated from her, like as my soul was alienated from her sister.
Mgbe ọ gara nʼihu na-akwa iko nʼezoghị ezo na-ekpughekwa ọtọ ya, elepụrụ m ya anya nʼihi ịsọ oyi, dịka m mere lepụkwara anya site nʼebe nwanne ya nwanyị nọ.
19 Yet she multiplied her prostitution, remembering the days of her youth, in which she had played the prostitute in the land of Egypt.
Ma ọ gara nʼihu na-akwa iko karịa, dịka ọ na-echeta ndụ akwụna o biri nʼIjipt mgbe ọ bụ agbọghọ.
20 She doted on their paramours, whose flesh is as the flesh of donkeys, and whose issue is like the issue of horses.
Nʼebe ahụ, agụụ ndị ikom ya na ha na-akwa iko gụrụ ya, bụ ndị anụahụ ha dịka nke ịnyịnya ibu, ndị ihe ha na-anyụpụta dịkwa ka nke ịnyịnya.
21 Thus you called to memory the lewdness of your youth, in the handling of your bosom by the Egyptians for the breasts of your youth.
Ya bụ, na-agụụ ndụ ọjọọ nke i biri mgbe ị bụ agbọghọ na-agụsị gị ike, mgbe ị nọ nʼIjipt ebe a na-abịagide gị aka nʼara, ebe apịkwara ọnụ ara nta gị aka.
22 "Therefore, Oholibah, thus says the LORD: 'Look, I will raise up your lovers against you, from whom your soul is alienated, and I will bring them against you on every side:
“Nʼihi nke a, gị Oholiba, nke a ka Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị kwuru: Aga m akpali ndị ahụ hụrụ gị nʼanya megide gị, bụ ndị ahụ ihe ha na-amasịkwaghị gị ọzọ. Aga m esi nʼakụkụ niile kpọta ha, megide gị.
23 the Babylonians and all the Chaldeans, Pekod and Shoa and Koa, and all the Assyrians with them; desirable young men, all of them governors and officials, officers and men of renown, all of them riding on horses.
Ndị Babilọn, ndị Kaldịa niile, ndị ikom Pekod, ndị Shoa, na ndị Koa, na ndị Asịrịa niile ha na ha soo. Ụmụ okorobịa niile dị mma ile anya, ha niile bụ ndị na-achị achị na ndị ọchịagha, ndịisi na-agba ịnyịnya, na ndị ikom ọkwa ha dị elu, ha niile ga-anọkwasị nʼelu ịnyịnya.
24 And they shall come against you armed with chariots, and wagons, and with a huge army; they shall come against you on every side with large shields and small shields and helmet; and I will commit the judgment to them, and they will judge you by their own standards.
Ha ga-eji ngwa agha dị iche iche, ụgbọala nke agha na ọtụtụ igwe ndị mmadụ dị iche iche; ha ji ọta ukwu na ọta nta, kpurukwa okpu agha igwe, were ọnọdụ gburugburu gị nʼakụkụ ọbụla, imegide gị. Aga m enyefe gị nʼaka ha, ka ha taa gị ahụhụ, ha ga-atakwa gị ahụhụ dịka usoro ikpe ha si dị.
25 I will set my jealousy against you, and they shall deal with you in fury; they shall take away your nose and your ears; and your residue shall fall by the sword: they shall take your sons and your daughters; and your residue shall be devoured by the fire.
Aga m edo ekworo nke iwe m megide gị, ha ga-eji iwe na ọnụma mesie gị ike. Ha ga-ebipụ imi unu na ntị unu, ndị fọdụkwara nʼime unu ga-anwụ site na mma agha. Ha ga-achịkọrọ ụmụ unu ndị ikom na ndị inyom pụọ, unu ndị nke fọdụrụ ka ọkụ ga-erepịa.
26 They shall also strip you of your clothes, and take away your beautiful jewels.
Ha ga-eyipụ gị uwe ọma gị niile, chikọrọ ihe ịchọ mma gị niile.
27 Thus will I make your lewdness to cease from you, and your prostitution brought from the land of Egypt; so that you shall not lift up your eyes to them, nor remember Egypt any more.
Nʼụzọ dị otu a, a ga-eme ka agụ ọchịchọ ọjọọ nke anụahụ na ịkwa iko, bụ nke i bidoro nʼala Ijipt kwụsị. Ị gaghị enwekwa agụụ ile ihe ndị a niile anya maọbụ chetakwa Ijipt nʼuche gị.
28 "'For thus says the LORD: Look, I will deliver you into the hand of them whom you hate, into the hand of them from whom your soul is alienated;
“Nʼihi na otu a ka Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị kwuru: Lee, ana m aga iwere gị nyefee nʼaka ndị ahụ kpọrọ gị asị, bụ ndị ahụ ị wezugara onwe gị site nʼebe ha nọ nʼihi ịsọ oyi.
29 and they shall deal with you in hatred, and shall take away all your labor, and shall leave you naked and bare; and the nakedness of your prostitution shall be uncovered, both your lewdness and your prostitution.
Ha ga-esite nʼịkpọ asị mesie gị ike, pụnara gị ihe niile i nwere nke ị dọgburu onwe gị nʼọrụ nʼihi ha. Ha ga-ahapụ gị ka ịgbara ọtọ ihu na azụ, mgbe ahụ ihere nke ịgba akwụna gị ga-apụta ihe. Agụụ nke ọchịchọ ọjọọ na ịkwa iko gị
30 These things shall be done to you, because you have played the prostitute after the nations, and because you are polluted with their idols.
emeela ka ihe ndị a bịakwasị gị, nʼihi na agụụ mmekọrịta nʼebe mba ndị ọzọ gụrụ gị, ị jikwa arụsị ha merụọ onwe gị.
31 You have walked in the way of your sister; therefore I will give her cup into your hand.'
Ị gbasoro nzọ ụkwụ nwanne gị nwanyị, nʼihi ya, aga m ewere iko ya tinye gị nʼaka.
32 "Thus says the LORD: 'You will drink of your sister's cup, which is deep and large; you will be ridiculed and held in derision; it contains much.
“Ihe ndị a ka Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị kwuru: “Iko nwanne gị nwanyị ka ị ga-aṅụ bụ iko sara mbara ma dịkwa omimi; nke ga-eme ka ị ghọọ onye a na-achị ọchị na onye a na-akwa emo, nʼihi na ọ na-anagide ihe dị ukwuu.
33 You shall be filled with drunkenness and sorrow, with the cup of astonishment and desolation, with the cup of your sister Samaria.
Ị ga-ejupụta nʼịṅụbiga mmanya oke na iru ụjụ, nʼihi iko mbibi na ntikpọsi, bụ iko nke nwanne gị nwanyị bụ Sameria.
34 You shall even drink it and drain it out, and you shall gnaw the broken pieces of it, and shall tear your breasts; for I have spoken it,' says the LORD.
Ị ga-aṅụ ya, ṅụchaa ihe dị nʼiko ahụ. Ị ga-atapịakwa iberibe ya niile, dọkasịakwa ara gị abụọ. Ekwuola m. Otu a ka Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị kwubiri.
35 "Therefore thus says the LORD: 'Because you have forgotten me, and cast me behind your back, therefore you also bear your lewdness and your prostitution.'"
“Nʼihi ya, ihe ndị a ka Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị kwuru: Ebe ọ bụ na i chefuola m, gbakụta m azụ gị, ị ga-ata ahụhụ niile ruuru gị nʼihi mmehie, agụụ ọchịchọ ọjọọ na ịgba akwụna gị.”
36 The LORD said moreover to me: "Son of man, will you judge Oholah and Oholibah? Then declare to them their abominations.
Onyenwe anyị sịrị m, “Nwa nke mmadụ, ị ga-ekpe Ohola na Oholiba ikpe? Mgbe ahụ, guzogide ha mee ka ha mara ihe arụ niile ha na-eme.
37 For they have committed adultery, and blood is in their hands; and with their idols have they committed adultery; and they have also caused their sons, whom they bore to me, to pass through the fire to them to be devoured.
Nʼihi na ha akwaala iko, ọbara jupụtakwara nʼaka ha, ha na arụsị ha kwakwara iko. Ha jikwa ọ bụladị ụmụ nke ha mụtaara m chụọ aja nsure ọkụ nye ha.
38 Moreover this they have done to me: they have defiled my sanctuary in the same day, and have profaned my Sabbaths.
Ihe ọzọ ha mere m bụ nke a: Ha merụrụ ebe nsọ m nʼotu ụbọchị ahụ ha mere ka ụbọchị izuike m gharakwa ịdị nsọ.
39 For when they had slain their children to their idols, then they came the same day into my sanctuary to profane it; and look, thus have they done in the midst of my house.
Nʼihi na nʼotu ụbọchị ahụ ha ji ụmụ ha chụọ aja nye arụsị ha, bụkwa ụbọchị ha batara nʼụlọnsọ m merụọ ya. Ihe dị otu a ka ha mere nʼụlọnsọ m.
40 "'Furthermore you have sent for men who come from far, to whom a messenger was sent, and look, they came; for whom you did wash yourself, paint your eyes, and decorate yourself with ornaments,
“Ọ bụghị naanị nke a, ha zigara ndị ozi ịkpọ ndị ikom na-esi ebe dị anya bịa, mgbe ha bịara, nʼihi ha, ị sachara ahụ gị nke ọma, tee ihe nʼanya gị, yirikwa ezigbo ihe ịchọ mma gị.

42 The voice of a multitude being at ease was with her: and with men of the common sort were brought drunkards from the wilderness; and they put bracelets on their hands twain, and beautiful crowns on their heads.
“Olu igwe mmadụ ndị obi dị ụtọ na-ada gburugburu ya nʼime ụlọ, e sitekwara nʼọzara bubata ndị ṅụbigara mmanya oke, ha na ọtụtụ ndị ọzọ, Ha gbanyekwara nwanyị a na nwanne ya nwanyị mgbaaka na nkwoji aka ha, yinyekwa ha okpueze mara mma nʼisi.
43 Then I said of her who was old in adulteries, 'Now will they play the prostitute with her, and she with them.'
Mgbe ahụ, ihe m kwuru banyere nwanyị ahụ ịkwa iko riri ahụ bụ nke a, ‘Ugbu a, ka ha mesoo ya mmeso dịka onye na-agba akwụna, nʼihi na nke ahụ ka ọ bụ.’
44 They went in to her, as they go in to a prostitute: so went they in to Oholah and to Oholibah, the lewd women.
Ha bara dinakwuru ya. Dịka ndị ikom si abakwuru nwanyị akwụna, otu a ka ha si bakwuru ụmụ nwanyị ndụ ọjọọ a bụ Ohola na Oholiba.
45 Righteous men, they shall judge them with the judgment of adulteresses, and with the judgment of women who shed blood; because they are adulteresses, and blood is in their hands.
Ma ndị ikpe ezi omume ga-ama ha ụdị ikpe a na-ama ndị inyom na-akwa iko na ndị na-awụsikwa ọbara. Nʼihi na ha bụ ndị na-akwa iko, na ndị ọbara dị nʼaka ha.
46 "For thus says the LORD: 'I will bring up a company against them, and will give them to be tossed back and forth and robbed.
“Ihe ndị a ka Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị sịrị, aga m akpọkọta igwe ndị mmadụ ga-emegide ha, nyefee ha nʼaka oke ihe egwu, nakwa ihe nlụta nʼagha.
47 The company shall stone them with stones, and dispatch them with their swords; they shall kill their sons and their daughters, and burn up their houses with fire.

48 'Thus will I cause lewdness to cease out of the land, that all women may be taught not to do after your lewdness.
“Otu a, aga m eme ka ibi ndụ ọjọọ kwụsị nʼala ahụ, ka esi otu a adọ ndị inyom niile aka na ntị, ka ha hapụ ịgbaso nzọ ụkwụ gị.
49 They shall recompense your lewdness on you, and you shall bear the sins of your idols; and you shall know that I am the LORD.'"
Ị ghaghị ịta ahụhụ nʼihi ndụ ọjọọ nke ịkwa iko gị, hụkwaa ahụhụ nʼihi mmehie niile nke ịkpọ isiala nye arụsị. Mgbe ahụ ị ga-amata na mụ onwe m bụ Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị.”
