< Zechariah 5 >
1 And once more lifted I mine eyes, and looked, —and lo! a Flying Volume.
Nígbà náà ni mo yípadà, mo sì gbé ojú mi sókè, mo sì wò, sì kíyèsi i, ìwé kíká ti ń fò.
2 And he said unto me, What canst thou see? So I said, I, can see a flying volume, the length thereof, twenty by the cubit, and, the breadth thereof, ten by the cubit.
Ó sì wí fún mi pé, “Kí ni ìwọ rí?” Èmi sì dáhùn pé, “Mo rí ìwé kíká tí ń fò; gígùn rẹ̀ jẹ́ ogún ìgbọ̀nwọ́, ìbú rẹ̀ sì jẹ́ ìgbọ̀nwọ́ mẹ́wàá.”
3 Then said he unto me, This, is the curse, which is going forth over the face of all the earth, —Because, every one who stealeth, on the one side, hath in one way been let off, and, every one who sweareth, on the other side, hath in another way been let off,
Ó sì wí fún mi pé, “Èyí ni ègún tí ó jáde lọ sí gbogbo ilẹ̀ ayé, nítorí gbogbo àwọn tí ó bá jalè ni a ó ké kúrò láti ìhín lọ nípa rẹ̀; gbogbo àwọn tí ó bá sì búra èké ni a ó ké kúrò láti ìhín lọ nípa rẹ̀.
4 [therefore] have I brought it forth, Declareth Yahweh of hosts, And it shall enter—into the house of the thief, and into the house of him that sweareth by my name, falsely, —and it shall roost in the midst of his house, and shall consume it, both the timbers thereof, and the stones thereof.
Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun wí pé, ‘Èmi yóò mú un jáde, Èmi yóò si wọ inú ilé olè lọ, àti inú ilé ẹni ti o bá fi orúkọ mi búra èké, yóò si wà ni àárín ilé rẹ̀, yóò si rún pẹ̀lú igi àti òkúta inú rẹ̀.’”
5 Then came forward, the messenger who was talking with me, —and said unto me—Lift up, I pray thee, thine eyes, and see what this is which is coming forth.
Angẹli tí ń bá mi sọ̀rọ̀ sì jáde lọ, ó sì wí fún mi pé, “Gbé ojú rẹ sókè nísinsin yìí, kí o sì wo nǹkan tí yóò jáde lọ.”
6 And I said, What is it? Then said he, This, is an ephah that is coming forth. And he said, This, is their iniquity, throughout all the land.
Mo sì wí pé, “Kí ni nǹkan náà?” Ó sì wí pé, “Èyí ni òsùwọ̀n tí ó jáde lọ.” Ó sì wí pé, “Èyí ni àwòrán ní gbogbo ilẹ̀ ayé.”
7 And lo! a leaden disc uplifted, —and here a certain woman, sitting inside the ephah.
Sì kíyèsi i, a gbé tálẹ́ǹtì òjé sókè, obìnrin kan sì nìyìí tí ó jókòó sí àárín àpẹẹrẹ òsùwọ̀n.
8 Then said he, This, is Lawlessness. So he thrust her back inside the ephah, —and then thrust the leaden weight into the mouth thereof.
Ó sì wí pé, “Èyí ni ìwà búburú.” Ó sì ti sí àárín òsùwọ̀n, ó sì ju ìdérí òjé sí ẹnu rẹ̀.
9 Then lifted I up mine eyes and looked, and lo! Two Women coming forward, with the wind in their wings, and, they, had wings, like the wings of the stork, —and bare up the ephah, between the earth and the heavens.
Mo sì gbé ojú mi sókè, mo sì wò, sì kíyèsi i, obìnrin méjì jáde wá, ẹ̀fúùfù sì wá nínú ìyẹ́ wọn; nítorí wọ́n ní ìyẹ́ bí ìyẹ́ àkọ̀, wọ́n sì gbé àpẹẹrẹ òsùwọ̀n náà dé àárín méjì ayé àti ọ̀run.
10 Then said I unto the messenger who was speaking with me, —Whither are they carrying the ephah?
Mo sì sọ fún angẹli tí ó ń bá mi sọ̀rọ̀ pé, “Níbo ni àwọn wọ̀nyí ń gbé òsùwọ̀n náà lọ.”
11 And he said unto me, To build for it a house in the land of Shinar, —so shall it be ready, and they shall settle it there, upon its own base?
Ó si wí fún mi pé, “Sí orílẹ̀-èdè Babeli láti kọ ilé fún un. Tí ó bá ṣetán, a ó sì fi ìdí rẹ̀ mulẹ̀, a o sì fi ka orí ìpìlẹ̀ rẹ̀ níbẹ̀.”
