< Ezekiel 11 >
1 And it lifted up me a spirit and it brought me to [the] gate of [the] house of Yahweh eastern which faces east-ward and there! [were] at [the] entrance of the gate twenty and five man and I saw in midst of them Jaazaniah [the] son of Azzur and Pelatiah [the] son of Benaiah [the] leaders of the people.
Ipapo Mweya wakandisimudza ukaenda neni pasuo reimba yaJehovha rakatarira kumabvazuva. Pamukova wesuo ipapo, pakanga pane varume makumi maviri navashanu, uye ndakaona pakati pavo Jaazania mwanakomana waAzuri naPeratia mwanakomana waBhenaya, vatungamiri vavanhu.
2 And he said to me O son of humankind these [are] the people who plan wickedness and who counsel counsel of evil in the city this.
Jehovha akati kwandiri, “Mwanakomana womunhu, ava ndivo varume vanorangana zvakaipa nokupa mano akaipa muguta rino.
3 Who say not [is] in [the] near [future] to build houses it [is] the pot and we [are] the meat.
Vanoti, ‘Ko, nguva haisati yasvika here yokuvaka dzimba? Guta rino ihari yokubikira, uye isu tisu nyama.’
4 Therefore prophesy on them prophesy O son of humankind.
Naizvozvo profita pamusoro pavo; profita, mwanakomana womunhu.”
5 And it fell on me [the] spirit of Yahweh and he said to me say thus he says Yahweh thus you have said O house of Israel and [the] thoughts of spirit your I I know it.
Ipapo Mweya waJehovha wakauya pamusoro pangu, iye akanditaurira kuti nditi: “Zvanzi naJehovha: Ndizvo zvamunotaura, imi imba yaIsraeri, asi ndinoziva zvamunofunga mundangariro dzenyu.
6 You have multiplied slain [ones] your in the city this and you have filled streets its [the] slain.
Makauraya vanhu vazhinji muguta rino uye mukazadza nzira dzaro nevakafa.
7 Therefore thus he says [the] Lord Yahweh slain [ones] your which you have put in [the] midst of it they [are] the meat and it [is] the pot and you he will bring out from [the] midst of it.
“Naizvozvo zvanzi naIshe Jehovha: Zvitunha zvamakandamo ndiyo nyama uye guta rino ndiyo hari, asi ini ndichakubudisai mariri.
8 A sword you have feared and a sword I will bring on you [the] utterance of [the] Lord Yahweh.
Munotya munondo, zvino munondo ndiwo wandichauyisa kuzokurwisai, ndizvo zvinotaura Ishe Jehovha.
9 And I will bring out you from [the] midst of it and I will give you in [the] hand of strangers and I will bring about on you judgments.
Ndichakubudisai kunze kweguta ndigokuisai mumaoko avatorwa uye ndichakurangai.
10 By the sword you will fall on [the] territory of Israel I will judge you and you will know that I [am] Yahweh.
Muchaurayiwa nomunondo, uye ini ndichakutongai pamiganhu yaIsraeri. Ipapo muchaziva kuti ndini Jehovha.
11 It not it will become for you a pot and you you will become in [the] midst of it meat to [the] border of Israel I will judge you.
Guta rino haringavi hari kwamuri, nemi hamungavi nyama mariri; ndichakutongai ini pamiganhu yeIsraeri.
12 And you will know that I [am] Yahweh whom in statutes my not you have walked and judgments my not you have done and according to [the] judgments of the nations which [are] around you you have done.
Uye muchaziva kuti ndini Jehovha, nokuti hamuna kutevera mitemo yangu kana kuchengeta mirayiro yangu asi makafamba netsika dzendudzi dzakakupoteredzai.”
13 And it was when prophesied I and Pelatiah [the] son of Benaiah he died and I fell on face my and I cried out a voice great and I said alas! O Lord Yahweh complete destruction [are] you? making with [the] remnant of Israel.
Zvino ndakati ndichiprofita, Peratia mwanakomana waBhenaya akafa. Ipapo ndakawira pasi nechiso ndikachema zvikuru ndichiti, “Haiwa Ishe Jehovha! Ko, muchaparadza chose vakasara vaIsraeri here?”
14 And it came [the] word of Yahweh to me saying.
Shoko raJehovha rakasvika kwandiri, richiti,
15 O son of humankind brothers your brothers your [the] people of redemption your and all [the] house of Israel all of it whom they said to them [the] inhabitants of Jerusalem be distant from with Yahweh to us it it has been given the land to a possession.
“Mwanakomana womunhu, hama dzako, hama dzako dzeropa neimba yose yaIsraeri, ndivo vainzi navanhu veJerusarema, ‘Vari kure kwazvo naJehovha; nyika ino takaipiwa kuti ive yedu.’
16 Therefore say thus he says [the] Lord Yahweh that I have removed far away them among the nations and that I have scattered them among the lands and I have become for them a sanctuary a little in the lands where they have gone there.
“Naizvozvo uti, ‘Zvanzi naIshe Jehovha: Kunyange ndakavaendesa kure pakati pendudzi uye ndikavaparadzira pakati penyika, asi kwechinguva chiduku ndakanga ndiri nzvimbo yavo tsvene munyika dzavakaenda.’
17 Therefore say thus he says [the] Lord Yahweh and I will gather you from the peoples and I will gather you from the lands which you have been scattered among them and I will give to you [the] land of Israel.
“Naizvozvo uti, ‘Zvanzi naIshe Jehovha: Ndichakuunganidzai kubva kundudzi ndigokudzosai kubva kunyika dzamakanga makaparadzirwa uye ndichakupaizve nyika yaIsraeri.’
18 And they will come there towards and they will remove all detestable things its and all abominations its from it.
“Vachadzokera kwairi vagobvisa zvifananidzo zvayo zvose zvakaipisisa nezvifananidzo zvinonyangadza.
19 And I will give to them a heart one and a spirit new I will put in inner being your and I will remove [the] heart of stone from flesh their and I will give to them a heart of flesh.
Ndichavapa mwoyo mumwe uye ndichaisa mweya mutsva mukati mavo; ndichabvisa mwoyo webwe mukati mavo ndigovapa mwoyo wenyama.
20 So that in statutes my they may walk and judgments my they may keep and they will do them and they will become for me a people and I I will become for them God.
Ipapo vachatevera mitemo yangu uye vachachenjerera kuchengeta mirayiro yangu. Vachava vanhu vangu, uye ini ndichava Mwari wavo.
21 And to [the] heart of detestable things their and abominations their heart their [is] going conduct their on own head their I will requite [the] utterance of [the] Lord Yahweh.
Asi kana vari vaya vane mwoyo inotevera zvakaumbwa zvavo zvakaipisisa nezvifananidzo zvinonyangadza, ndichaburutsa pamisoro yavo chaiyo zvavakaita, ndizvo zvinotaura Ishe Jehovha.”
22 And they lifted up the cherubim wings their and the wheels [were] close by them and [the] glory of [the] God of Israel [was] above them from to above.
Ipapo makerubhi namavhiri parutivi pawo akatambanudza mapapiro awo, uye kubwinya kwaMwari waIsraeri kwakanga kuri pamusoro pawo.
23 And it went up [the] glory of Yahweh from over [the] middle of the city and it stood still over the mountain which [was] from [the] east of the city.
Kubwinya kwaJehovha kwakakwira kuchibva mukati meguta kukandomira pamusoro pegomo nechokumabvazuva kwaro.
24 And a spirit it lifted up me and it brought me Chaldea towards to the exile[s] in the vision by [the] spirit of God and it went up from on me the vision which I had seen.
Mweya wakandisimudza ukaenda neni kuna vakatapwa vari muBhabhironi muchiratidzo chakapiwa noMweya waMwari. Ipapo chiratidzo chandakanga ndaona chakakwidzwa kubva pandiri,
25 And I spoke to the exile[s] all [the] words of Yahweh which he had shown me.
uye ndakaudza vakatapwa zvinhu zvose zvandakaratidzwa naJehovha.
