< Ezekiel 14 >
1 And he came to me men from [the] elders of Israel and they sat down before me.
Abamu ku bakadde ba Isirayiri ne bajja gye ndi, ne batuula mu maaso gange.
2 And it came [the] word of Yahweh to me saying.
Awo ekigambo kya Mukama ne kinzijira ng’agamba nti,
3 O son of humankind the men these they have brought up idols their on heart their and [the] stumbling block of iniquity their they have put before faces their ¿ really will I let myself be consulted by them.
“Omwana w’omuntu, abasajja bano batadde bakatonda abalala ku mitima gyabwe ne bateeka n’ebyesittaza mu maaso gaabwe. Mbakkirize banneebuuzeeko?
4 Therefore speak with them and you will say to them thus he says - [the] Lord Yahweh a person a person from [the] house of Israel who he will bring up idols his to heart his and [the] stumbling block of iniquity his he will put before face his and he will go to the prophet I Yahweh I will let myself give an answer to him (he came *Q(K)*) by [the] multitude of idols his.
Noolwekyo yogera gye bali obategeeze nti, ‘Bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda nti, Omuyisirayiri yenna bw’ateeka bakatonda abalala ku mutima gwe, n’ateeka n’ebyesittaza mu maaso ge, n’agenda eri nnabbi, nze kennyini, nze nnaamwanukulanga olwa bakatonda be abalala baayita abakulu.
5 So as to capture [the] house of Israel by heart their who they have become estranged from with me by idols their all of them.
Bwe ntyo bwe ndikola okwewangulira emitima gy’ennyumba ya Isirayiri, bonna abaanvaako okugoberera bakatonda abalala.’
6 Therefore say - to [the] house of Israel thus he says [the] Lord Yahweh turn back and turn away from with idols your and from with all abominations your turn away faces your.
“‘Noolwekyo tegeeza ennyumba ya Isirayiri nti, Bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda nti, Mwenenye muleke bakatonda bammwe, mulekeyo ebikolwa byammwe eby’ekivve.
7 For a person a person from [the] house of Israel and from the sojourner who he sojourns in Israel so he may separate himself from after me and he will bring up idols his to heart his and [the] stumbling block of iniquity his he will put before face his and he will go to the prophet to consult to him me I Yahweh [will] let myself give an answer to him by myself.
“‘Omuyisirayiri yenna oba omugenyi abeera mu Isirayiri bw’ananvangako, n’ateeka bakatonda abalala ku mutima gwe n’ateeka n’ebyesittaza mu maaso ge, ate n’agenda eri nnabbi okunneebuuzaako, nze Mukama nze nnaamwanukulanga.
8 And I will set face my on the person that and I will make him into a sign and into bywords and I will cut off him from among people my and you will know that I [am] Yahweh.
Omuntu oyo nnaamulwanyisanga ne mufuula ekyokulabirako era eky’okunyumyako. Ndimusalako ku bantu be, mulyoke mumanye nga nze Mukama.
9 And the prophet if he will be deceived and he will speak a word I Yahweh I have deceived the prophet that and I will stretch out hand my on him and I will destroy him from among people my Israel.
“‘Nnabbi bw’anaasendebwasendebwanga okuwa obubaka ng’ategeeza nti nze Mukama Katonda nsenzesenze nnabbi oyo, ndigolola omukono gwange ku ye ne muzikiriza okumuggya mu bantu bange Isirayiri.
10 And they will bear iniquity their as [the] iniquity of the enquirer as [the] iniquity of the prophet it will be.
Baliba bansingiddwa omusango, era nnabbi aliba asingiddwa omusango gwe gumu n’oyo azze okumwebuuzaako.
11 So that not they will wander again [the] house of Israel from after me and not they will make themselves unclean again by all transgressions their and they will become for me a people and I I will become for them God [the] utterance of [the] Lord Yahweh.
Olwo ennyumba ya Isirayiri tebaliddayo nate kubula newaakubadde okweyonoona n’ebibi byabwe byonna. Baliba bantu bange, nange ndiba Katonda waabwe, bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda.’”
12 And it came [the] word of Yahweh to me saying.
Awo ekigambo kya Mukama ne kinzijira ng’agamba nti,
13 O son of humankind a land if it will sin to me by acting unfaithfully unfaithfulness and I will stretch out hand my on it and I will break of it staff of bread and I will send on it famine and I will cut off from it humankind and animal[s].
“Omwana w’omuntu, ensi bw’ekola ebibi mu maaso gange n’ebeera etali nneesigwa, ne ngolola omukono gwange gy’eri ne nsalako obugabirizi bw’emmere yaabwe, ne mbasindikira ekyeya, ne nzita abantu baamu n’ensolo zaabwe,
14 And they will be [the] three the men these in [the] midst of it Noah (Daniel *Q(K)*) and Job they by righteousness their they will deliver own life their [the] utterance of [the] Lord Yahweh.
newaakubadde ng’abasajja bano abasatu Nuuwa, ne Danyeri, ne Yobu bandibadde bagirimu, bandiwonyeza bulamu bwabwe bwokka olw’obutuukirivu bwabwe, bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda.
15 If animal[s] wild I will cause to pass in the land and it will make childless it and it will be a desolation because not [one who] passes by because of the animal[s].
“Oba newaakubadde nga nsindika ensolo enkambwe ez’omu nsiko mu nsi eyo, ne zigyonoona ne zigireka nga temuli mwana n’omu, n’efuuka matongo, ne wataba n’omu agiyitamu olw’ensolo ezo,
16 [the] three The men these [will be] in [the] midst of it [by] [the] life of me [the] utterance of [the] Lord Yahweh if sons and if daughters they will deliver they to alone them they will be delivered and the land it will be a desolation.
ddala nga bwe ndi omulamu, abasajja abo abasatu tebandiwonyezza batabani baabwe wadde bawala baabwe, bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda. Bo bokka be bandiwonye, naye ensi yandifuuse matongo.
17 Or a sword I will bring on the land that and I will say a sword let it pass in the land and I will cut off from it humankind and animal[s].
“Oba singa ndeeta ekitala ku nsi eyo ne njogera nti, ‘Leka ekitala kiyite mu nsi yonna,’ ne nzita abantu baamu n’ensolo zaabwe,
18 And [the] three the men these [will be] in [the] midst of it [by] [the] life of me [the] utterance of [the] Lord Yahweh not they will deliver sons and daughters for they to alone them they will be delivered.
nga bwe ndi omulamu, newaakubadde ng’abasajja bano abasatu bandibadde bagirimu, tebandiwonyezza batabani baabwe wadde bawala baabwe. Bandiwonyeza bulamu bwabwe bwokka olw’obutuukirivu bwabwe, bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda.
19 Or pestilence I will send against the land that and I will pour out rage my on it by blood to cut off from it humankind and animal[s].
“Oba singa ndeeta kawumpuli mu nsi eyo, ne mbafukako ekiruyi kyange, ne njiwa omusaayi mu nsi eyo, ne nzita abantu baamu n’ensolo zaabwe,
20 And Noah (Daniel *Q(K)*) and Job [will be] in [the] midst of it [by] [the] life of me [the] utterance of [the] Lord Yahweh if a son if a daughter they will deliver they by righteousness their they will deliver own life their.
nga bwe ndi omulamu, Nuuwa ne Danyeri ne Yobu ne bwe bandigibaddemu, tebandiwonyezza mutabani waabwe newaakubadde muwala waabwe. Bo bokka be nandiwonyezza olw’obutuukirivu bwabwe, bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda.
21 For thus he says [the] Lord Yahweh indeed? if [the] four judgments my - harmful sword and famine and animal[s] wild and pestilence I will send against Jerusalem to cut off from it humankind and animal[s].
“Kubanga bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda nti, Kiriba kitya bwe ndiweereza ebibonerezo byange ebina: ekitala n’ekyeya n’ensolo enkambwe ez’omu nsiko ne kawumpuli, ku Yerusaalemi, okutta abantu baamu n’ensolo zaabwe!
22 And there! it will be left in it an escaped remnant about to be led out sons and daughters there they [are] about to come out to you and you will see conduct their and practices their and you will be comforted on the calamity which I have brought on Jerusalem all that I have brought on it.
Naye ate nga walibaawo abamu abaliwona, abaana aboobulenzi n’aboobuwala abaliggibwamu. Balijja gy’oli, era bw’oliraba enneeyisa yaabwe n’ebikolwa byabwe, olikkiriza akabi ke ndeese ku Yerusaalemi, buli kabi ke mmuleeseeko.
23 And they will comfort you if you will see conduct their and practices their and you will know that not without cause I have done all that I have done in it [the] utterance of [the] Lord Yahweh.
Bw’oliraba enneeyisa yaabwe n’ebikolwa byabwe olikkiriza nga sirina kye nkoze mu Yerusaalemi awatali nsonga, bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda.”
