Ezekiel 24
1 Almost nine [after we had been taken to Babylonia], on the tenth day of the tenth month [of that year], Yahweh gave me this message:
Eso nabuga amola oubi nabuga amola ode sesege ninia mugululi misi eso amoga, Hina Gode da nama amane sia: i,
2 “You human, write down what day of the month this is. On this [the army of] King of Babylon has surrounded Jerusalem.
“Dunu egefe! Wali eso ea doaga: i defei dedema! Bai wali eso, Ba: bilone hina bagade da Yelusaleme amoma muni doagala: mu.
3 Tell those rebellious Israeli people [MTY] [in Babylon] a parable. Say this to them: This is what Yahweh the Lord says: ‘Pour water into the [cooking] pot and put the pot [the fire].
Na fi lelesu dunu ilima amo fedege sia: olelema. Na, Ouligisudafa Hina Gode da ilima amane sia: sa, ‘Gobele nasu gaga amo hano dili nabalesilalu, lalu didi da: iya ligisima.
4 Put into the pot some pieces of [from one of your best sheep]: Put in the leg and shoulder, [which are] the best pieces. [Then] fill [the rest of] the pot with the best bones.
Hu dadamui noga: idafa amo ganodini salima. Ougia hu amola emo hu amola gasa dadamui noga: idafa sasalima.
5 Pile wood on the fire, and cook the bones and the meat in the boiling water.’
Sibi hu ida: iwane fawane salima. Gobele nasu gaga hagudu, lalu noga: le didima. Amalu, hano dubu heda: le, gasa amola hu sasali nadima: ma.”
6 [Do that] because this is what Yahweh the Lord says: ‘Terrible things will happen [Jerusalem]; it is city that is full of murderers [MTY], [a city that is like] [MET] a scorched pot whose black residue inside cannot be removed. Take the pieces [of meat] out of the pot, but do not choose which pieces to take out.
Ouligisu Hina Gode da amane sia: sa, “Moilai bai bagade da fane legesu dunu amoga nabai gala, amola moilai bai bagade da wadela: lesi dagoi ba: mu. Amo da bua: iai gelabo doasasali gobele nasu gaga ilia da hamedafa dodofesu, amo defele ba: sa. Hu dadamui afae afae da amoga fadegabe, ebelei ba: sa.
7 The blood of the people who were murdered in Jerusalem is still there; they were murdered on the bare rocks, not on the soil, where their blood could be covered.
Moilai amo ganodini, medole legesu bagadewane ba: su. Be amo heale da guluga hame dedeboi. Ilia da amo heale magufu da: iya soga: digi.
8 But I am the one who caused the blood of those who were murdered [MTY] to be smeared on the bare rock, where their blood could not be covered; I did that in order [I could see it and] then be angry and get revenge.’
Na da amo heale amogawi yolesi. Bai amo wamolegemu Na higa: i. Maga: me sa: iba: le, dabe imunu gala.”
9 Therefore, this is what [I], Yahweh the Lord say: ‘Terrible things will happen to that city that is full of murderers [MTY]! [It will be as though] I also will pile high [the wood in the fire].
Ouligisudafa Hina Gode da amane sia: sa, “Fane legesu moilai bai bagade da wadela: mu. Na Nisu da lalu habele gaguli heda: mu.
10 [So], heap on the wood and light the fire! Cook the meat well, and mix some spices with it; cook it until the bones are charred.
Lalu habei eno gaguli misa! Lalu fulaboma! Hedolo nadima! Gasa gobema!
11 Then set the empty pot on the [of the fire] until the pot becomes [very] hot and the copper glows, with the result that the impurities and the rust will be burned up.
Amasea, balasega hamoi gobele nasu ofodo gelabai amo gia: i lalu oso amo da: iya ligisili, nenowama: ma. Gobele nasu ofodo da bu nenowane ledo hame ba: ma: ne, agoane hamoma.
12 [It is as though] I tried to get rid of that rust, but I was not able to do it, [not even] by putting that pot in a fire.
Be ledo da hame dogasi dialebe ba: mu. Laluga dugimu da hamedei.
13 The [in the pot represents] your immoral behavior. I tried to cleanse you from your wicked behavior, but you did not allow me to do that. So you will not be [from the guilt of your sin] [I have punished you and] I am no longer angry.
Yelusaleme fi! Dilia wadela: i adole lasu hou da dili ledodafa hamoi dagoi. Dilia da Na ougi bagadedafa amo nababeba: le fawane fofoloi dagoi ba: mu.
14 I, Yahweh, have said [that I will surely punish you]. [And it is time] for me to do that. I will not change my mind; I will not refrain from punishing you, and I will not pity you. I will judge you [and punish you] as you deserve to be punished for your sinful behavior. [That will surely happen because] I, Yahweh the Lord, have said it.”’”
Na, Ouligisudafa Hina Gode, da sia: i dagoi. Na se imunu eso da doaga: i dagoi. Na da dilia wadela: i hou hame gogolemu amola dilima hame asigimu. Dilia wadela: i hou hamobeba: le, Na da dilima se bidi imunu.” Ouligisudafa Hina Gode da sia: i dagoi.
15 [One day] Yahweh gave me this message:
Hina Gode da nama amane sia: i,
16 “You human, I am going to suddenly take from [your wife], whom you love very much. [when she dies], do [show that you are] sad or lament or cry.
“Dunu egefe! Na da afae fawane fane, dia dogolegei uda amo dima samogemu. E da bogomu. Di da mae egane amola mae dini amola si hano mae sa: ili esaloma.
17 Groan quietly; do not cry [openly] for her. [Keep] your turban wrapped around your head, [instead of being barefoot, keep] your sandals on your feet. Do not cover the lower part of your [to show that you are sad]. And do not eat the kind of food that people who are mourning usually eat.”
Mae didigia: ma. Dia da: i dioi amo eno dunuma mae olelema. Dia emo salasu mae gisa: le fasili amola habuga mae gisa: le, amola mae gogolole masa. Dia odagi mae dedeboma amola ha: i manu amo didigia: su dunu da naha, amo di mae moma.”
18 [one morning] I talked to the [as usual], and that evening my wife [suddenly] died. The next morning I did what [Yahweh] had told me to do.
Amalalu, hahabe, na da dunu ilima sia: dalu. Amo daeya na uda bogoi. Diahabe, na da Gode Ea adoi defele hamoi.
19 Then the people asked me, “What do the things that you are doing signify to us?”
Dunu ilia da nama amane adole ba: i, “Abuliba: le di da agoane hamosala: ?”
20 So I said to them, “[This is what] Yahweh told me:
Amalalu, na da ilima amane sia: i,” Hina Gode da nama amane adoi,
21 ‘Tell the Israeli people [MTY] that I am about to destroy the temple, [the building] that you are very proud of, the building that you delight to look at. Your children whom you [in Jerusalem when you were forced to come to Babylon] will be killed [their enemies’] swords.
‘Isala: ili dunu ilima amane adosima, Dilia da Debolo Diasu amo ea gasaba: le nodosa. Dilia amo ba: musa: hanasa amola amo ba: la masusa: hanasa. Be Hina Gode da Debolo wadela: lesili, ledo agoane hamomu. Amola dilia sosogo ayeligi huluane da gegesu ganodini, medole lelegei dagoi ba: mu.
22 [When that happens], you will do like I have done: You will not cover the lower part of your faces, or eat the kinds of food that people who are mourning usually eat.
Amasea, dilia da na hamobe defele hamomu. Dilia da dilia odagi hame dedebomu, amola ha: i manu didigia: su dunu ilia nasu, amoga dilia da hame manu.
23 [You will keep] your turbans wrapped around your heads and [keep] your sandals on your feet. You will not mourn or cry, but your bodies will become very thin and slowly die because of your sins. And you will groan to each other.
Dilia da emo salasu mae sanawane amola habuga mae figiliwane amola gogonomone diwane hame masunu. Dilia da wadela: i hou hamobeba: le, geloga: gia: mu, amola dilia dunu enoma gogonomomu.
24 Ezekiel will be a warning to you, and you must do what he has done. When that happens, you will know that I, Yahweh the [have the power to do what I say that I will do].’”
Amasea, na da dilima dawa: digima: ne olelesu agoane ba: mu. Dilia da na hamoi huluane defele hamomu. Hina Gode da amane sia: sa, dilia amo hou huluane ba: sea, E da Ouligisudafa Hina Gode dawa: mu.’”
25 [Then Yahweh said to me], “You human, [soon] I will destroy their sacred temple, which they rejoice about and which they respect and delight to look at, and [I will get rid of] their sons and daughters also.
Hina Gode da amane sia: i, “Dunu egefe! Gasa bagade Debolo Diasu amoma ilia bagade nodosu, amola amoga hahawane nodone ba: musa: masu. Amo Na da ilima samogemu. Amola Na da ilia mano huluane sasamogemu.
26 On that day, someone will escape [from Jerusalem] and come and tell you what has happened [there].
Amo esoga Na da agoane hamosea, dunu afae da amo wadela: su amoba: le hobeale ahoasea, da amo hou dima olelela misunu.
27 When that happens, you will be able to speak again [MTY] [without constraint]. You two will talk together [DOU]. You will be a warning to the people; and they will know that I, Yahweh the Lord, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].”
Amo eso amo galawane, di da sia: dasu hou (amo di da musa: fisi) amo bu lale, ali da sia: sa: imu. Amo hamobeba: le, di da dunu ilima dawa: digima: ne olelesu agoane ba: mu, amola ilia da Na da Hina Gode dawa: mu.”
