Ezekiel 12
1 Yahweh gave me another message. [He said, ]
LEUM GOD El fahk nu sik,
2 “You human, you are living among people who are [very] rebellious. They have eyes, but they do not [what I want them to see]; they have ears, but they do not [what I want them to hear], because they are rebellious/stubborn people.
“Kom, mwet sukawil moul la, kom muta inmasrlon mwet lungsena alein. Oasr mutalos, a elos tia liye mau. Oasr insraclos, a elos tia lohng mau, mweyen elos lungse alein.
3 Therefore, you human, pack your belongings as though you were (going into exile/being forced to go to another country). Then, during the daytime, while people are watching, [prepare to] go to another place. Even though the people are rebellious, perhaps they will [what you are symbolizing].
“Inge, mwet sukawil, apweni kutu ma lom ingan in oana luman sie mwet kaing, ac mukuiyak meet liki fongeni. Lela mwet uh in liye lah kom ac som nu ke sie pac acn. Sahp mwet lungse alein ingan ac akilen kom.
4 During the daytime, while they are watching, bring out the things that you want to take and pack them. Then in the evening, while they are watching, do what those who are preparing to go into exile do.
Apweni ma kom ac us nu in sruoh ke srakna len. Lela mwet nukewa in liye ke kom ac fahla ke ekela uh, elos in pangon mu kom ac som nu in sruoh.
5 Dig through [city] wall and take your things through the hole.
Ke pacl elos ac liye kom an, pukanla sie pat ah ke sinka in lohm sum, ac eis ap lom an ac tufoki kac.
6 Then put [in a sack] on your shoulder while they are watching and leave at dusk. Cover your face in order that you cannot see the path. [I want you to do this] because I want you to warn the Israeli people.”
Lela elos in liye ke kom ac srukak ap lom nu finpisom ac illa nu in lohsr uh. Afinya motom kom in tia ku in liye acn kom fahsr we. Ma kom oru inge ac fah sie mwe akul in sensenkin mwet Israel.”
7 [So] I did what Yahweh told me to do. During the day I brought things out of my [as though] I was packing to go into exile. Then in the evening I dug through [city] wall. [Then] while people watched, I put my sack of belongings on my shoulder and left.
Na nga oru oana LEUM GOD El fahk nu sik. In len sac nga apweni ap se in oana mwet ac kaingla se, ac ke eku sac ke mutawauk in lohsrla, nga pukanla sinka ah ke pouk, ac illa. Na nga srukak ap sac nu finpisuk ac som ke mwet nukewa liye.
8 The next morning, Yahweh gave me this message:
Ke lotutan tok ah LEUM GOD El kaskas nu sik ac fahk,
9 “You human, the rebellious people [MTY] of Israel asked you, ‘What are you doing?’
“Mwet sukawil, inge mwet alein lun Israel fin siyuk lah mea kom oru an
10 [So go back and] say to them, ‘What I did is about the king in Jerusalem and all the [other] people of Israel who are there.’
kom fahkang ma nga, LEUM GOD Fulatlana, fahk nu selos. Kas inge ma nu sin fisrak se su leumi acn Jerusalem, oayapa mwet nukewa su muta we.
11 Tell [them], ‘[What I did] is a warning to you.’ What has happened to you will happen to them. They will be captured and forced to go to another country.
Fahk nu selos lah ma kom oru inge ac sie mwe akul nu ke ma ac sikyak nu selos. Elos ac fah mwet kaing ac mwet sruoh.
12 Their king will put his belongings on his shoulder at dusk and leave. [His servants] will dig a hole through the city wall, [and he will take his belongings] through it. He will cover his face in order [others will not recognize] him.
Fisrak se su leum faclos ac fah lippisauk ap lal in lohsr uh, ac kaingla ke pat se ma elos pukanla nu sel ke sinka ah. El ac fah afinya mutal ac tia liye acn el fahsr nu we.
13 [it will be as though] I will spread a net for [to be captured]; [enemy soldiers will] capture him and take him to [city]. But he will [be able to] see it; and there he will die.
Tusruk nga fah sisalik nwek nutik uh in sruokilya. Na nga fah usalla nu in siti Babylon, yen el ac misa we ac tia liye acn uh.
14 I will scatter in all directions [IDM] all those who have been around him—his advisors and his soldiers—and I will cause his enemies to pursue them, with their swords ready to strike them.
Nga fah akfahsryelik mwet nukewa inkul sel nu yen nukewa — mwet pwapu fulat lal ac mwet mweun karinginyal. Ac mwet uh fah sokolos in onelosi.
15 Then, when I scatter them among many nations [DOU], they will know that I, Yahweh, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].
“Ke nga ac akfahsreloselik nu in mutunfacl saya uh, elos ac fah etu lah nga pa LEUM GOD.
16 But I will spare/save a few of them from being killed by swords and from dying from famines or plagues, with the result that in the nations to which they are forced to go, they will realize/admit that they have been doing disgusting things, and they will know that I, Yahweh, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].”
Nga ac fah lela kutu selos in moulla liki mweun, sracl, ac mas. Ouinge ke elos muta inmasrlon mwet in facl saya an elos fah akilen lupan moul koluk lalos, ac etu lah nga pa LEUM GOD.”
17 Then Yahweh gave me another message. [He said, ]
LEUM GOD El kaskas nu sik
18 “You human, tremble while you eat your food, and shudder fearfully while you drink your water.
ac fahk, “Mwet sukawil, kom in rarrar ke pacl kom mongo, ac sangeng rarrar ke pacl kom ac nim.
19 Tell [this to] the Israeli people: 'This is what Yahweh the Lord says about those who are [still] living in Jerusalem and [other places in] Israel: They also will be very anxious/worried [DOU] while they eat their food and drink their water, because their country will [soon] have everything taken away. That will happen because the people who live there [continually] act [very] violently.
Fahk nu sin mwet in facl sacn nufon lah pa inge kas sin LEUM GOD Fulatlana nu sin mwet su muta Jerusalem — elos su srakna muta in facl selos: Elos ac fah rarrar ke pacl elos mongo, ac sangeng ac rarrar ke elos ac nim. Facl selos ac sikiyukla mweyen mwet nukewa su muta we elos moul sulallal ac kunaus ma sap.
20 The towns where people live will be devastated, and the land will become barren/empty. Then you people will know that it is I, Yahweh, [who have the power to do what I say that I will do].'”
Siti nukewa ma nwanala ke mwet in pacl inge ac fah kunausyukla, ac facl sac nufon ac fah acn mwesisla. Na elos ac fah etu lah nga pa LEUM GOD.”
21 Yahweh gave me another message. [He said, ]
LEUM GOD El kaskas nu sik,
22 “You human, the people in Israel have this proverb/saying: ‘The days pass, and [the prophets] predict never happens.’
ac fahk, “Mwet sukawil, efu ku mwet Israel elos kalwenina soakas se inge: ‘Pacl uh somla, a kas in palu uh tiana sikyak.’
23 So say to them, ‘This is what Yahweh the Lord says: I am going to prove that (what they say/that proverb) is not correct, and then they will never say that again in Israel.’ Tell them, ‘It will soon be the time when everything that the prophets have predicted will happen.
Inge, fahkang nu selos ma nga, LEUM GOD Fulatlana, fahk ke ma ingan. Nga ac sisla soakas se ingan, na ac fah tia sifil srumunyuk in Israel. Fahkang nu selos lah pa inge pacl kas in palu uh ac akpwayeiyuk!
24 No longer [false prophets tell] to the Israeli people false visions, or prophecies that try to please people.
“Ac fah tia sifil oasr aruruma kikiap ku kas in palu tia pwaye inmasrlon mwet Israel.
25 Instead, I, Yahweh, will say what I want to tell the people, and what I predict will quickly happen. You rebellious people, I will cause to happen everything that I say will happen. [That is what I, ] Yahweh the Lord, say.’”
Nga, LEUM GOD, fah sifacna kaskas nu selos, ac ma nga ac fahk uh ac tia pahtlac in sikyak. Kowos mwet likkeke, nga ac oru ma nga fahk mu nga ac oru ke pacl kowos srakna moul. Nga, LEUM GOD Fulatlana, pa fahk ma inge!”
26 Yahweh also gave me this message:
LEUM GOD El fahk nu sik,
27 “You human, the Israeli people are [constantly] saying [about you], ‘The things that he sees in [will not happen soon]. They are [things that will happen] many years from now, far in the future.’
“Mwet sukawil, mwet Israel elos nunku mu aruruma lom ac kas in palu lom tia ma ac sa sikyak, a ma na nwe tok.
28 Therefore say to them, ‘This is what Yahweh the Lord [DOU] says: I will no longer [causing to happen] any of the things that I have prophesied. Whatever I have predicted [very soon] happen.’”
Ke ma inge fahkang nu selos lah nga, LEUM GOD Fulatlana, fahk mu: Ac fah tia sifilpa pahtlac. Ma nga fahkla uh ac orekla. Nga, LEUM GOD Fulatlana, pa fahk ma inge!”
