< Ezekiel 3 >
1 And he said to me O son of humankind [that] which you find eat eat the scroll this and go speak to [the] house of Israel.
Nake mũndũ ũcio akĩnjĩĩra atĩrĩ, “Mũrũ wa mũndũ, rĩa kĩrĩa kĩrĩ mbere yaku, rĩa ibuku rĩĩrĩ rĩa gĩkũnjo; ũcooke ũthiĩ ũkaarĩrie andũ a nyũmba ya Isiraeli.”
2 And I opened mouth my and he caused to eat me the scroll this.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio ngĩathamia kanua, nake akĩĩhe ibuku rĩu rĩa gĩkũnjo ndĩrĩrĩe.
3 And he said to me O son of humankind belly your may you cause to eat and inward parts your may you fill the scroll this which I [am] giving to you and I ate [it]! and it was in mouth my like honey to sweet.
Ningĩ akĩnjĩĩra atĩrĩ, “Mũrũ wa mũndũ, rĩa ibuku rĩĩrĩ rĩa gĩkũnjo ndĩrakũhe ũiyũrie nda yaku.” Nĩ ũndũ ũcio ngĩrĩrĩa, na rĩrĩ kanua-inĩ gakwa rĩarĩ na mũrĩo ta ũũkĩ.
4 And he said to me O son of humankind go go to [the] house of Israel and you will speak with words my to them.
Ningĩ agĩcooka akĩnjĩĩra atĩrĩ: “Mũrũ wa mũndũ, thiĩ o rĩu kũrĩ andũ a nyũmba ya Isiraeli ũmaarĩrie ciugo ciakwa.
5 For not to a people deep of lip and heavy of tongue you [are] being sent to [the] house of Israel.
Ndũratũmwo kũrĩ andũ a mwarĩrie ũtooĩ kana rũthiomi rũritũ, no nĩ kũrĩ andũ a nyũmba ya Isiraeli;
6 Not - to peoples many deep of lip and heavy of tongue whom not you will understand words their if not to them I had sent you they they will listen to you.
ti kũrĩ ndũrĩrĩ nyingĩ iria ciaragia mwarĩrie ũtooĩ kana rũthiomi rũritũ, kana rũrĩ na ciugo iria ũtangĩmenya. Ti-itherũ, korwo nĩndagũtũmĩte kũrĩ o, nĩmangĩagũthikĩrĩirie.
7 And [the] house of Israel not they will be willing to listen to you for not they [are] willing to listen to me for all [the] house of Israel [are] hard of forehead and stern of heart they.
No rĩrĩ, andũ a nyũmba ya Isiraeli matingĩenda gũkũigua, nĩ ũndũ matiendaga kũnjigua, nĩgũkorwo nyũmba yothe ya Isiraeli nĩyũmĩtie ngoro na ĩkangʼathia.
8 Here! I make face your hard corresponding to faces their and forehead your hard corresponding to forehead their.
No rĩrĩ, niĩ ngũtũma wage kuororoa na ũũmie ngoro o ta o.
9 Like diamond hard more than flint I make forehead your not you must fear them and not you must be dismayed from faces their for [are] a house of rebellion they.
Nĩngũtũma gĩthiithi gĩaku kĩũme ta ihiga rĩrĩa rĩũmũ mũno, rĩrĩa rĩũmũ gũkĩra ihiga rĩa nyaigĩ. Ndũkametigĩre kana ũmakio nĩo, o na akorwo nĩ a nyũmba ya ũremi.”
10 And he said to me O son of humankind all words my which I will speak to you take in heart your and with ears your hear.
Ningĩ akĩnjĩĩra atĩrĩ, “Mũrũ wa mũndũ, thikĩrĩria wega na wĩkĩre ciugo iria ciothe ngũkwarĩria ngoro-inĩ.
11 And go go to the exile[s] to [the] children of people your and you will speak to them and you will say to them thus he says [the] Lord Yahweh whether they will listen and or they will refrain.
Thiĩ o rĩu kũrĩ andũ anyu arĩa matahĩtwo warie nao. Meere atĩrĩ, ‘Ũũ nĩguo Mwathani Jehova ekuuga,’ kana nĩmegũthikĩrĩria kana matigũthikĩrĩria.”
12 And it lifted up me a spirit and I heard behind me a sound of rumbling great [be] blessed [the] glory of Yahweh from place its.
Ningĩ Roho akĩnjoya na igũrũ, na ngĩigua mũgambo mũnene thuutha wakwa ũkĩruruma. (Riiri wa Jehova ũrogoocwo arĩ o kũu gĩikaro-inĩ gĩake!)
13 And [the] sound of - [the] wings of the living creatures touching closely each sister its and [the] sound of the wheels close by them and a sound of rumbling great.
Naguo warĩ mũgambo wa mathagu ma ciũmbe icio irĩ muoyo makĩhutania mo mene, na wa magũrũ ma ngaari marĩa maarĩ mĩena yacio, naguo warĩ mũgambo mũnene warurumaga.
14 And a spirit it lifted up me and it took me and I went bitter in [the] rage of spirit my and [the] hand of Yahweh on me it was strong.
Roho agĩcooka akĩnjoya na igũrũ akĩnjeheria, na niĩ ngĩthiĩ ndĩ na marũrũ na marakara ngoro-inĩ, nakuo guoko kwa Jehova kũrĩa kwa hinya kwarĩ igũrũ rĩakwa.
15 And I came to the exile[s] Tel Abib who were dwelling to [the] river of Kebar (and I sat *Q(K)*) they [were] dwelling there and I sat there seven days appalled in midst of them.
Ngĩkinya kũrĩ arĩa maatahĩtwo, arĩa maatũũraga kũu Teli-Abibu, gũkuhĩ na Rũũĩ rwa Kebari, na ngĩikarania nao kwa ihinda rĩa mĩthenya mũgwanja, makĩte mũno.
16 And it was from [the] end of seven days. And it came [the] word of Yahweh to me saying.
Thuutha wa mĩthenya ĩyo mũgwanja-rĩ, kiugo kĩa Jehova gĩkĩnginyĩrĩra, ngĩĩrwo atĩrĩ,
17 O son of humankind a watchman I appoint you for [the] house of Israel and you will hear from mouth my a word and you will warn them from me.
“Mũrũ wa mũndũ, nĩngũtuĩte mũrangĩri wa andũ a nyũmba ya Isiraeli, nĩ ũndũ ũcio igua kiugo kĩrĩa ngwaria, na ũmeere ũrĩa ndĩramakaania.
18 When say I to wicked [person] surely you will die and not you have warned him and not you have spoken to warn a wicked [person] from way his wicked to preserve alive him that wicked [person] for iniquity his he will die and blood his from hand your I will require.
Rĩrĩa ngwĩra mũndũ mwaganu atĩrĩ, ‘Ti-itherũ, nĩũgaakua,’ nawe wage kũmũkaania, kana kũmwarĩria atigane na mĩthiĩre yake ya waganu nĩguo ahonokie muoyo wake-rĩ, mũndũ ũcio mwaganu nĩagaakua nĩ ũndũ wa mehia make, nawe nĩwe ngooria thakame yake.
19 And you if you have warned a wicked [person] and not he has turned away from wickedness his and from way his wicked he for iniquity his he will die and you life your you have delivered.
No wee ũngĩkaania mũndũ ũcio mwaganu, nake arege kũgarũrũka atigane na waganu wake kana mĩthiĩre yake mĩũru-rĩ, we nĩagaakua nĩ ũndũ wa mehia make; no wee-rĩ, nĩũgaakorwo ũhonoketie muoyo waku.
20 And when turns away a righteous [person] from righteousness his and he will do injustice and I will put an obstacle before him he he will die if not you warned him for sin his he will die and not they will be remembered (righteousness his *Q(K)*) which he did and blood his from hand your I will require.
“Ningĩ-rĩ, mũndũ mũthingu angĩgarũrũka atigane na ũthingu wake eke maũndũ mooru, na niĩ ndĩmwĩkĩrĩre mũhĩnga mbere yake-rĩ, nĩagaakua. Kũngĩkorwo ndwamũkaanirie-rĩ, nĩagaakua nĩ ũndũ wa mehia make. Maũndũ marĩa aneeka ma ũthingu matikaaririkanwo, nawe nĩwe ngooria thakame yake.
21 And you if you have warned him a righteous [person] to not to sin a righteous [person] and he not he has sinned certainly he will live for he has been warned and you life your you have delivered.
No rĩrĩ, wee ũngĩkaania mũndũ ũcio mũthingu atige kwĩhia, nake aage kwĩhia-rĩ, ti-itherũ nĩagatũũra muoyo nĩ ũndũ nĩathikĩrĩirie ũguo wamũkaanirie, nawe-rĩ, nĩũgaakorwo ũhonoketie muoyo waku.”
22 And it was on me there [the] hand of Yahweh and he said to me arise go out to the plain and there I will speak with you.
Guoko kwa Jehova kwarĩ igũrũ rĩakwa ndĩ o kũu, nake akĩnjĩĩra atĩrĩ, “Ũkĩra ũthiĩ werũ-inĩ ũrĩa mwaraganu, na kũu nĩkuo ngũkwarĩria.”
23 And I arose and I went out to the plain and there! there [the] glory of Yahweh [was] standing like the glory which I had seen at [the] river of Kebar and I fell on face my.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio ngĩũkĩra ngĩthiĩ werũ-inĩ ũcio mwaraganu, naguo riiri wa Jehova warũngiĩ kuo, ũhaana ta riiri ũrĩa ndoonete hũgũrũrũ-inĩ cia Rũũĩ rwa Kebari, na niĩ ngĩĩgũithia, ngĩturumithia ũthiũ thĩ.
24 And it came in me a spirit and it made stand up me on feet my and he spoke with me and he said to me go shut yourself up in [the] midst of house your.
Hĩndĩ ĩyo Roho agĩtoonya thĩinĩ wakwa, akĩnjoya akĩndũgamia na magũrũ makwa. Akĩnjarĩria, akĩnjĩĩra atĩrĩ, “Thiĩ ũkehingĩre gwaku nyũmba.
25 And you O son of humankind there! people will put on you ropes and they will bind you with them and not you will go out in midst of them.
No rĩrĩ, wee mũrũ-wa-mũndũ, nĩmagakuoha na mĩhĩndo; ũgaikara ũrĩ muohe nĩguo ndũkoime ũthiĩ gatagatĩ-inĩ ka andũ.
26 And tongue your I will make stick to palate your and you will be dumb and not you will become to them a person [who] reproves for [are] a house of rebellion they.
Niĩ nĩngatũma rũrĩmĩ rwaku rũnyiitane na karakara nĩguo ũkire wage kũmanegenia, o na akorwo o nĩ andũ a nyũmba ya ũremi.
27 And when speak I with you I will open mouth your and you will say to them thus he says [the] Lord Yahweh the [one who] hears - let him hear and the [person] who refrains - let him refrain for [are] a house of rebellion they.
No rĩrĩa ngaakwarĩria-rĩ, nĩngakũhingũra kanua, nawe nĩũkameera ũũ, ‘Mwathani Jehova ekuuga atĩrĩ.’ Ũrĩa wothe ũngĩthikĩrĩria nĩathikĩrĩrie, nake ũrĩa wothe ũkũrega nĩarege; nĩgũkorwo o nĩ andũ a nyũmba ya ũremi.
