Ezekiel 20
1 And it came to pass in the seventh year in the fifth month, on the tent of the month, that there came in men of the elders of Israel to enquire of Yahweh, —and they sat before me.
A shekara ta bakwai, a wata na biyar a rana ta goma, waɗansu dattawan Isra’ila suka zo don su nemi nufin Ubangiji, suka kuwa zauna a ƙasa a gabana.
2 Then came the word of Yahweh unto me saying: -
Sai maganar Ubangiji ta zo mini cewa,
3 Son of man Speak thou with the elders of Israel and say unto them, Thus, saith My Lord Yahweh, To enquire of me, are ye coming in? As I live, verily I will not be enquired of by you, Declareth My Lord Yahweh.
“Ɗan mutum, ka yi magana da dattawan Isra’ila ka ce musu, ‘Ga abin da Ubangiji Mai Iko Duka yana cewa kun zo ne ku nemi shawarata? Muddin ina raye, ba zan bari ku nemi shawarata ba, in ji Ubangiji Mai Iko Duka.’
4 Wilt thou judge them, wilt thou judge, O son of man? The abominations of their fathers, let them know:
“Za ka hukunta su? Za ka hukunta su, ɗan mutum? To, sai ka kalubalance su da ayyukan banƙyamar kakanninsu
5 So then thou shalt say unto them Thus, saith My Lord Yahweh, In the day when I made choice of Israel, then lifted I up my hand. to the seed of the house of Jacob, and made myself known to them, in the land of Egypt, - Yea I lifted up my hand to them, saying, I Yahweh, am your God.
ka ce musu, ‘Ga abin da Ubangiji Mai Iko Duka yana cewa a ranar da na zaɓi Isra’ila, na ɗaga hannuna, na rantse wa zuriyar gidan Yaƙub na kuma bayyana kaina gare su a Masar da hannun da na ɗaga na ce musu, “Ni ne Ubangiji Allahnku.”
6 In that day, lifted I up my hand to them, to bring them forth out of the land of Egypt, —into a land that I had looked out for them flowing with milk and honey, The beauty, it was of all lands,
A ranar na yi musu rantsuwa cewa zan fitar da su daga Masar zuwa ƙasar da na samo musu, ƙasa mai zub da madara da zuma, ƙasa mafi kyau cikin dukan ƙasashe.
7 And I said unto them. Every one the abomination of his eyes, cast ye away, And with the manufactured gods of Egypt, let it not be that ye defile yourselves: I, Yahweh, am your God.
Na kuma ce musu, “Kowannenku ya zubar da mugayen siffofin da kuka kafa idanunku a kai, kuma kada ku ƙazantar da kanku da gumakan Masar. Ni ne Ubangiji Allahnku.”
8 But they rebelled against me And were not willing to hearken unto me, Every man the abominations of their eyes, they cast not away, And the manufactured gods of Egypt, forsook they not; Therefore spake I of pouring out mine indignation upon them to bring mine anger to an end against them, in the midst of the land of Egypt.
“‘Amma sai suka yi tawaye a kaina ba su kuwa saurare ni ba; ba su zubar da mugayen siffofin da suka kafa idanunsu a kai ba, balle su ƙi gumakan Masar. Saboda haka zan zubo hasalata a kansu in kuma aukar musu da fushina a Masar.
9 Howbeit I wrought with effect, for the sake of mine own Name, that it might not be profaned—before the eyes of the nations in whose midst they were, —before whose eyes I made myself known unto them, by bringing them forth out of the land of Egypt.
Amma saboda sunana na yi abin da zai kiyaye shi daga ƙazantuwa a idanun al’umman da suka zauna a ciki da kuma a idanun al’ummai da na bayyana kaina ga Isra’ilawa ta wurin fitar da su daga Masar.
10 Therefore brought I them forth out of the land of Egypt, —and caused them to come into the desert.
Saboda haka na fisshe su daga Masar na kawo su cikin hamada.
11 Then gave I unto them my statutes, And my regulations, caused I them to know, - By the which the man that doeth them shall live.
Na ba su ƙa’idodina na kuma sanar musu da dokokina, gama mutumin da ya yi biyayya da su zai rayu ta wurinsu.
12 Moreover also my sabbaths, gave I unto them, to become a sign betwixt me and them, —that it might be known that, I, Yahweh, was hallowing them.
Na kuma ba su Asabbataina kamar alama tsakaninmu, domin su san cewa Ni Ubangiji ne yake tsarkake su.
13 But the house of Israel, rebelled against me, in the desert, In my statutes, walked they not, And my regulations, they rejected By the which the man, that doeth them, shall live, My sabbaths also, they profaned exceedingly. Therefore spake I of pouring out mine indignation upon them in the desert, to make an end of them.
“‘Duk da haka mutanen Isra’ila suka yi mini tawaye a cikin hamada. Ba su bi ƙa’idodina ba amma suka ki dokokina, ko da yake mutumin da ya yi biyayya da su zai rayu ta wurinsu, suka ɓata Asabbataina ƙwarai. Saboda haka na ce zan zuba hasalata a kansu in kuma hallaka su a hamada.
14 Howbeit I wrought with effect for the sake of mine own Name, —that it should not be profaned in the eyes of the nations, in whose eyes I had brought them forth.
Amma saboda sunana na yi abin da zai kiyaye shi daga ƙazantuwa a idanun al’umman da a idonsu na fisshe su.
15 Yet even I lifted up my hand to them. in the desert, — That I would not bring them into the land which I had given to them flowing with milk and honey, The beauty, it was. of all lands:
Na kuma ɗaga hannu na rantse musu a hamada cewa ba zan kawo su ƙasar da na ba su ba, ƙasa mai zub da madara da zuma, ƙasa mafi kyau cikin dukan ƙasashe,
16 Because my regulations, they had rejected. And as for my statutes, they had not walked therein, My sabbaths also, had they profaned; For after their manufactured gods, their heart had been going.
domin sun ƙi dokokina ba su kuwa bi ƙa’idodina ba suka kuma ƙazantar da Asabbataina. Gama zukatansu sun fi so su bauta wa gumakansu.
17 Nevertheless mine eye threw a shield over them that they should not be destroyed; So I made not of them a full end in the desert.
Duk da haka na dube su ta tausayi ba zan hallaka su ko in kawo ƙarshensu a hamada ba.
18 But I said unto their children in the desert, In the statutes of your fathers, let it not be that ye walk, And their regulations, let it not be that ye observe, — And with their manufactured gods, let it not be that ye defile yourselves.
Na faɗa wa’ya’yansu a hamada, “Kada ku bi farillai kakanninku ko ku kiyaye dokokinsu ko ku ƙazantar da kanku da gumakansu.
19 I, Yahweh, am your God, In my statutes, walk ye, — And my regulations, observe ye and do them;
Ni ne Ubangiji Allahnku; ku bi ƙa’idodina ku kuma kula ku kiyaye dokokina.
20 My sabbaths also, hallow ye, — And they shall become a sign betwixt me and you, That it may be known that I Yahweh am your God.
Ku kiyaye Asabbataina da tsarki, don su zama alama tsakaninmu. Ta haka za ku san cewa ni ne Ubangiji Allahnku.”
21 Notwithstanding the children rebelled against me, In my statutes, walked they not, And my regulations, observed they not to do them Wherein the man who shall do them shall live, My sabbaths, they profaned. Therefore spake I of pouring out mine indignation upon them to bring mine anger to an end against them. in the desert.
“‘Amma’ya’yan suka yi mini tawaye. Ba su bi ƙa’idodina ba, ba su kula su kiyaye dokokina ba, ko da yake mutumin da ya kiyaye su zai rayu ta wurinsu, suka kuma ƙazantar da Asabbataina. Saboda haka na ce zan zuba hasalata a kansu in kuma aukar musu da fushina a hamada.
22 Howbeit I withdrew my hand, and wrought with effect for the sake of mine own Name, —that it should not be profaned before the eyes of the nations, before whose eyes I had brought them forth:
Amma na janye hannuna, kuma saboda sunana na yi abin da zai kiyaye shi daga ƙazantuwa a idanun al’umman da a idonsu na fisshe su.
23 Even, I, lifted up my hand to them in the desert, — That I would disperse them throughout the nations, And scatter them throughout the lands;
Na kuma ɗaga hannu na rantse musu cewa zan watsar da su cikin al’ummai in kuma warwatsa su cikin ƙasashe,
24 Because my regulations, had they not done And my statutes, they had rejected, My sabbaths also, they had profaned, - And after the manufactured gods of their fathers, were their eyes turned.
domin ba su kiyaye dokokina ba amma suka ƙi ƙa’idodina suka kuma ƙazantar da Asabbataina, idanunsu suka yi sha’awar gumakan kakanninsu.
25 I myself, indeed, suffered them to walk in statutes which were not good, — And regulations in which they could not live.
Na kuma ba da su ga farillan da ba su da kyau da dokokin da ba za su rayu ta wurinsu ba;
26 Yea I let them defile themselves with their gifts, when they caused every firstborn to pass through the fire, -. that I might make them desolate. To the end they might know that, I, am Yahweh.
na bari suka ƙazantu ta wurin kyautai, hadayar kowane ɗan fari don in cika su da abin tsoro domin su san cewa ni ne Ubangiji.’
27 Therefore speak thou unto the house of Israel Son of man, and say unto them, Thus saith My Lord Yahweh, — Yet further in this, did your fathers insult me, by the treachery wherewith they dealt treacherously against me;
“Saboda haka, ɗan mutum, ka yi magana da mutanen Isra’ila ka faɗa musu cewa, ‘Ga abin da Ubangiji Mai Iko Duka yana cewa a wannan kuma kakanninku suka saɓe ni ta wurin yashe ni.
28 When I brought them into the land as to which I had lifted up mine hand to give it them, then beheld they every high hill and every tangled tree And offered there their sacrifices, And presented there, their provoking gift, And placed there, their satisfying odour, And poured out there, their drink- offerings.
Sa’ad da na kawo su cikin ƙasar da na rantse zan ba su suka kuma ga tudu mai tsawo ko itace mai ganye, a can suka miƙa hadayunsu, suka yi sadakokin da suka tsokane ni na yi fushi, suka miƙa turaren ƙanshinsu suka kuma zuba sadakokinsu na sha.
29 Therefore said I unto them, What! a high-place, whereinto ye are entering? And so the name thereof hath been called High-place, until this day.
Sai na ce musu, Wane ɗakin tsafi kuke tafiya?’” (Ana ce da shi Bama har wa yau.)
30 Therefore say thou unto the house of Israel. Thus saith My Lord Yahweh, Is it in the way of your fathers, ye are defiling yourselves, - And after their abominations, that ye are committing lewdness?
“Domin haka ka faɗa wa gidan Isra’ila, ‘Ga abin da Ubangiji Mai Iko Duka yana cewa za ku ƙazantar da kanku yadda kakanninku suka yi ne ku yi sha’awar mugayen siffofinsu?
31 Yea when ye lift up your gifts When ye cause your children to pass through the fire, Ye are defiling yourselves unto all your manufactured gods unto this day, And shall, I, be enquired of by you O house of Israel? As I live, Declareth My Lord Yahweh, Surely I will not be enquired of by you.
Sa’ad da kuka miƙa kyautai naku, hadayar’ya’yanku maza a wuta, kuna cin gaba da ƙazantar da kanku da duka gumakanku har wa yau. Zan bari ku nemi shawarata, ya gidan Isra’ila? Muddin ina raye, in ji Ubangiji Mai Iko Duka, ba zan bari ku nemi shawarata ba.
32 And as for that which is rising up on your spirit, it shall, not at all come to pass, In that ye are saying Let us be like the nations Like the families of the lands, By ministering unto Wood and Stone!
“‘Kukan ce, “Kuna so ku zama kamar sauran al’ummai, kamar sauran mutanen duniya, waɗanda suke bauta wa itace da dutse.” Amma abin da kuke tunani ba zai taɓa faruwa ba.
33 As I live, Declareth My Lord Yahweh, Surely, with a strong hand and With an outstretched arm and With outpoured indignation, Will I be king over you;
Muddin ina raye, in ji Ubangiji Mai Iko Duka, zan yi mulki a kanku da hannu mai iko da kuma hannu mai ƙarfi da kuma fushi.
34 And I will bring you forth from among the peoples, And gather you together out of the lands, throughout which ye have been dispersed, With a strong hand and With an outstretched arm, and With outpoured indignation;
Zan fitar da ku daga al’ummai in tattara ku daga ƙasashe inda aka warwatsa ku, da hannu mai iko da kuma hannu mai ƙarfi da kuma fushi.
35 And I will bring you into the desert of the peoples, —and will contend with you there, face to face.
Zan kawo ku cikin hamadar al’ummai a can kuwa, fuska da fuska, zan hukunta ku.
36 Just as I contended with your fathers in the desert of the land of Egypt, So will I contend with you, Declareth My Lord Yahweh;
Yadda na hukunta kakanninku a hamadar ƙasar Masar, haka zan hukunta ku, in ji Ubangiji Mai Iko Duka.
37 And I will cause you to pass under the rod And will bring you into the bond of the covenant;
Zan lura da ku yayinda kuke wucewa ƙarƙashin sanda, zan kuma kawo ku cikin daurin alkawari.
38 And will sever from you those who are rebelling and those who are transgressing against me, Out of the land of their sojournings, will I bring them forth, Yet upon the soil of Israel, shall they not enter, So shall ye know that, I, am Yahweh.
Zan fitar da waɗanda suke mini tayarwa da kuma’yan tawaye. Ko da yake zan fitar da su daga ƙasar da suke zama, duk da haka ba za su shiga ƙasar Isra’ila ba. Sa’an nan za ku san cewa ni ne Ubangiji.
39 But as for you, O house of Israel Thus, saith my Lord. Yahweh, Go. serve every man his own manufactured gods, Yet afterwards, surely Ye shall be ready to hearken unto me, — And my holy name, shall ye profane no more, With your gifts, and With your manufactured gods.
“‘Game da ku, ya gidan Isra’ila, ga abin da Ubangiji Mai Iko Duka yana cewa ku tafi ku bauta wa gumakanku, kowannenku! Amma daga baya tabbatacce za ku saurare ni ba kuwa za ku ƙara ɓata sunana mai tsarki da hadayunku da gumakanku ba.
40 For in my holy mountain. In the mountain of the height of Israel, Declareth, My Lord Yahweh, There shall all the house of Israel serve me, all of it, in the land, There will I accept them, and There, will I seek your heave-offerings and the firstfruits of your gifts, in all your holy things:
Gama a kan dutsena mai tsarki, dutse mai tsayi na Isra’ila, in ji Ubangiji Mai Iko Duka, a can a ƙasar gidan Isra’ila gaba ɗaya za su bauta mini, a can kuwa zan karɓe su. A can zan bukaci hadayunku da sadake sadakenku mafi kyau, tare da dukan tsarkakan hadayunku.
41 As a satisfying odour, will I accept you, Through my bringing you forth from among the peoples, And gathering you out of the lands, throughout which ye have been dispersed; Thus will I hallow myself in you before the eyes of the nations.
Zan karɓe ku kamar turare mai ƙanshi sa’ad da na fitar da ku daga al’ummai na kuma tattara ku daga ƙasashe inda aka warwatsa ku, zan kuma nuna kaina mai tsarki a cikinku a idon al’ummai.
42 So shall ye know that I am Yahweh, Through my bringing you in unto the soil of Israel, Unto the land as to which I lifted up my hand, to give it unto your fathers.
Sa’an nan za ku san cewa ni ne Ubangiji sa’ad da na kawo ku cikin ƙasar Isra’ila, ƙasar da na ɗaga hannu na rantse zan ba wa kakanninku.
43 Then shall ye call to mind. there, your own ways and all your own doings, wherewith ye had defiled yourselves, - And ye shall become loathsome in your own sight, for all your wickednesses, which ye have done.
A can za ku tuna da halinku da kuma dukan ayyukanku waɗanda kuka ɓata kanku da su, za ku kuwa ji ƙyamar kanku saboda mugayen abubuwan da kuka aikata.
44 So shall ye know that, I, am Yahweh, Through my dealing effectively with you, for the sake of mine own Name, - Not according to your own wicked ways. Nor according to your corrupted doings. O house of Israel, Declareth My Lord Yahweh.
Za ku san cewa ni ne Ubangiji, sa’ad da na yi muku haka saboda sunana ba bisa ga mugayen hanyoyinku da ayyukanku marasa kyau ba, ya gidan Isra’ila, in ji Ubangiji Mai Iko Duka.’”
45 Then came the word of Yahweh unto me. saying:
Maganar Ubangiji ta zo mini cewa,
46 Son of man Set thy face the way towards Teman, And drop thy word against the land of the sun, And prophesy unto the forest of the field of the South;
“Ɗan mutum, ka kafa fuskarka wajen kudu; ka yi wa’azi a kan kudu ka kuma yi annabci a kan kurmin ƙasar kudu.
47 And thou shalt say to the forest of the South Hear the word of Yahweh, — Thus saith My Lord Yahweh-Behold me! kindling in thee a fire. And it shall devour in thee every moist tree and every dry tree. The spreading flame shall not be quenched, Then shall be scorched thereby all faces from south to north;
Ka faɗa wa kurmin kudanci, ‘Ji maganar Ubangiji. Ga abin da Ubangiji Mai Iko Duka yana cewa ina gab da sa maka wuta, za tă kuwa cinye dukan itatuwanki sarai, da ɗanye da busasshe. Ba za a kashe wutar da take ci ba, kuma kowace fuska a kudu zuwa arewa za tă ƙone.
48 And all flesh shall see that I. Yahweh have kindled it, - It shall not be quenched.
Kowa zai san cewa Ni Ubangiji ne ya ƙuna ta; ba za a kashe ta ba.’”
49 Then said I, Ah! My Lord Yahweh: They are saying of me, Is not he a putter forth of parables?
Sai na ce, “Kash, Ubangiji Mai Iko Duka! Suna zance a kaina cewa, ‘Ba misalai kawai yake yi ba?’”
