< Ezekiel 34 >
1 Yahweh gave me another message. He said,
Hina Gode da nama amane sia: i,
2 “You human, prophesy about [leaders] of Israel. [They should be taking care of my people like] [MET] shepherds [take care of their sheep]. Say to them, ‘This is what Yahweh the Lord says: Terrible things will happen to you leaders [MET] of Israel who only take care of yourselves! You should certainly [RHQ] take care of [your people like] [MET] a shepherd takes care of his flock of sheep!
“Dunu egefe! Isala: ili sibi ouligisu dunu ilima mimogoa fofada: ma. Na, Ouligisudafa Hina Gode, Na sia: ilima adosima, ‘Dilia Isala: ili sibi ouligisu dunu! Dilia da wadela: lesi dagoi ba: mu. Dilia da dilila: hou noga: le ouligisa be sibi hamedafa ouligisa.
3 [It is as though] you eat the curds, you slaughter the very good animals and wear clothes made from their wool. But you do not take care of the flock.
Dilia da sibi dodo maga: me naha. Dilia da ilia hinabo amoga abula hamoi ga: sa amola sibi noga: idafa medole naha. Be sibi hamedafa ouligisa.
4 You have not enabled those who are weak to become strong. You have not healed those who were sick. You have not bandaged those who were wounded/injured. You have not brought back those who went astray. You have not searched for those who became lost. You have ruled your people harshly and cruelly.
Dilia gasa hamedei sibi hame ouligisu. Dilia da oloi galea hame uhinisisu amola fofa: ginisi amo hame la: gisu, amola udigili ahoasu bu hame oule masu, amola sibi fisi amo hame hogoi helesu. Be amomane, dilia da sibi mi hanane sediginisisa ouligisu.
5 So they were scattered, because you did not [take care of them like] [MET] a shepherd [takes care of his sheep]. And when they were scattered, [it was as though] wild animals attacked and [killed them and ate] their flesh.
Dilia sibi noga: le hame ouligibiba: le, ilia da afagogole, amola sigua ohega medole mai dagoi ba: i.
6 My people wandered like sheep all over the high hills and mountains. They were scattered all over the earth, and no one searched for them [DOU].
Amaiba: le, Na sibi da hisu agologa amola goumiba: le udigili doulasi. Ilia da osobo bagade da: iya afagogole asili, amola enoga ili hame hogole ba: i.
7 Therefore, you [who should be acting like] shepherds, listen to what I, Yahweh the Lord say:
Wali, sibi ouligisu dilia! Nabima! Na, Hina Gode, Na sia: be amo nabima.
8 As surely as I am alive, my people [are like a flock of sheep that has] no shepherd, and as a result [it is as though] wild animals have attacked my people and eaten them. You did not search for them; instead, you only wanted to provide food for yourselves.
Na, Dafawanedafa Fifi Ahoanusu Gode da Na Dioba: le, dilima nabima: ne sia: sa. Na sibi da ouligisu hameba: le, sigua ohega fane mai dagoi ba: i. Na sibi ouligisu dunu da Na sibi amo hame hogosu. Ilia da ilila: musu, ilia hou fawane ouligisu amola sibi gogolei.
9 Therefore, you [who should be like] [MET] shepherds, listen to what I, Yahweh say:
Amaiba: le, dilia sibi ouligisu dunu, Na sia: nabima!
10 I am opposed to [you leaders who should be like] [MET] shepherds for my people. I will remove you from taking care of my people, with the result that you will no longer feed yourselves [instead of feeding them]. I will rescue my people from you, with the result that you will longer be able to [butcher them and] eat them.
Na, Ouligisudafa Hina Gode, Na da dilia ha lai dunu sia: sa. Na da Na sibi diliga bu samogemu. Amola dilia ouligisu logo Na da hedofamu. Dilia da bu hamedafa Na sibi ouligimu. Amola dilila: musu ouligisu hou, amo Na da hedofamu. Dilia da agoane bu hamedafa hamomu. Na da Na sibi dili bu hame fane moma: ne, dilima fadegale, gaga: mu.”
11 This is what I, Yahweh the Lord, say to you leaders: I myself will search for my sheep and take care of them.
“Na, Ouligisudafa Hina Gode, da dilima amane sia: sa, ‘Na Nisu fawane da Na sibi hogole ba: sea, noga: le ouligimu.
12 Like a shepherd finds his scattered sheep, I will rescue my people from all the places to which they have been scattered, at a time when things were very gloomy and they experienced disasters.
Sibi ouligisu da ea sibi amo afagogoi amo gilisili, bu oule ahoanu, noga: le ouligisa, amo defele Na da Na fi dunu huluane amo da gasi bidi hamosu esoga, sogebi huluane amoga afagogoi ba: i, amoga lale, bu oule misini, noga: le ouligimu.
13 I will bring them back from many countries and gather them together again in their own land. [Because my people are like sheep] [MET], [it is as though] I will enable them to find good pastureland on the hills of Israel, and in the ravines, and in the villages of Israel.
Na da ga fi soge amoga ili fadegale, ili gilisili, ilia sogedafa amoga bu oule misunu. Na da Isala: ili goumi amola hano noga: i amoga oule misunu, amola gisi noga: i ili moma: ne olelemu.
14 [It is as though] I will allow them to graze in good pastures on the mountaintops. They will lie down in good (grazing areas/grassy fields) there [DOU].
Ilia da mae beda: iwane gaga: iwane, goumia amola fagoga amola umiga hahawane gisi moma: ne, Na da ili ouligimu.
15 I myself will take care of my people and enable them to lie down and rest.
Na, Nisu fawane da Na sibi ouligisu dunu esalumu. Amola, ilia helefima: ne, Na da soge hogole ba: mu. Na, Ouligisudafa Hina Gode da sia: i dagoi.
16 I will search for those who are lost and bring back the ones who have strayed away. I will bandage those who have been injured and strengthen those who are weak. But I will get rid of those who are fat and powerful. I will act fairly toward [the people who are like] [MET] my sheep. That is what I, Yahweh, promise.
Na da sibi fisi amo hogole ba: mu. Na da udigili dadoulasi sibi bu oule misunu. Na da oloi galea sibi uhinisimu. Be sibi amo da sefena amola gasa bagade, amo Na da gugunufinisimu. Bai Na da moloidafa hamobe sibi ouligisu dunu esala.
17 And as for you who are like [MET] my sheep, this is what I, Yahweh the Lord, say: I will judge between each of you; and I will separate [those that are peaceful like] sheep from [those that are always trying to dominate others like] goats.
Wali, Na sibi wa: i! Na, Ouligisudafa Hina Gode, da dilima Na hamomu olelemu. Na da dili afae afae amoma fofada: nanu dili afafamu. Noga: i mogili gamu, amola wadela: i na: iyado mogili gamu. Sibi da mogili gamu amola goudi da hisu na: iyado mogili gamu.
18 It is bad that [RHQ] some of you keep the best pastures for yourselves. It is even worse that [RHQ] you trample the good grass with your feet. You yourselves drink the clear water [RHQ]. But with your feet you cause the other water to become muddy [RHQ].
Dilia mogili da gisi noga: idafa nabeba: le, hame sadisa. Be gisi noga: i amo dilia hame mai gala, amo dilia da emoga osa: gili, wadela: lesisa. Dilia da hano noga: i amo nanu, bu hano diala amo uba: genesili, wadela: lesisa.
19 [It is as though] you [RHQ] are forcing my flock to eat the grass that you have trampled and to drink the water that you have caused to become muddy!
Na sibi eno da gisi amo dilia da osa: gili wadela: lesi amo fawane naha, amola hano amo dilia uba: genesili wadela: lesi amo fawane nasu dawa:
20 Therefore, this is what I, Yahweh the Lord, say to you: I myself will judge between [those of you who are like] [MET] the fat sheep and [those of you who are like] the thin sheep.
Amaiba: le, wali, Na, Ouligisudafa Hina Gode da dilima amane sia: sa, ‘Na da dili gasa fi sibi dilima amola gasa hamedei sibi ilima afaeafae fofada: mu.
21 [who are like] strong sheep, [it is as though] with your shoulders and buttocks you have shoved away [those who are like] thin sheep, and you have butted them with your horns, until you have chased them all away [from the good pastureland].
Dilia gasa fi sibi da oloi gasa hamedei sibi amo sibi wa: i bega: fuli fasi dagoi.
22 But I will rescue my people, and they no longer will be (harassed/treated cruelly). I will judge between one person and another.
Be Na da Na sibi gaga: mu, amola eno ilima bu mae wadela: ma: ne gaga: mu. Na da Na sibi ilima afaeafae fofada: nanu, noga: i mogili gamu amola wadela: i na: iyado mogili gamu.
23 And I will appoint one leader [MET] for them, [someone who will be like] King David, who served me [very well]. That leader will take care of them and be like their shepherd.
Na da ilima hina bagade, Na hawa: hamosu dunu Da: ibidi defele, ilima imunu. E da ili noga: le ouligimu.
24 I, Yahweh, will be their God, and [the one who is like] [MET] King David will be their king. [That will surely happen because] I, Yahweh, have said it.
Na, Hina Gode, da ilia Gode esalumu, amola hina bagade, Na hawa: hamosu dunu Da: ibidi agoai, da ilia ouligisu esalumu. Na da sia: i dagoi.
25 I will make a peace agreement with the people of Israel. In this agreement I will promise to get rid of all the wild animals in Israel, in order that my people may live safely, even in the desert and in the forests.
Na da ilima gousa: su, amo da ili dafawane gaga: ma: ne, hamomu. Amola Na sibi da soge ganodini gaga: iwane esaloma: ne, amola iwila ganodini hahawane golama: ne, Na da nimi bagade sigua ohe soge ganodini esala, amo huluane fadegale sefasimu.
26 I will bless them, and I will bless the places close to my sacred hill. I will bless them by sending them rain showers at the right season; they will be showers to bless them.
Ilia da Na sema agolo hahawane sisiga: le esaloma: ne, Na da ilima hahawane hamomu. Ilima hahawane hamoma: ne, Na da ilia hanai defele, gibu sasafugi ilima imunu.
27 The fruit trees will produce fruit and the ground will produce crops. And my people will live safely in their land. When I rescue them from people who caused them to be slaves [MET, DOU], they will know that I, Yahweh, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].
Ifa huluane da dulu legemu. Ifabi da ha: i manu legemu. Amola dunu huluane da gaga: iwane hina: sogea esalumu. Eno dunu da Na dunu afugili asili, ilia udigili hawa: hamosu dunu hamoi. Be Na da ilia lala: gilisi amo fadegale fasili, ilia da hahawane halegale lalumu.
28 [Soldiers from] other nations will no longer take away their valuable possessions, and wild animals will no longer attack them. They will live safely, and no one will cause them to be afraid.
Gode Ea hou hame lalegagui fifi asi gala da ili bu hame wadela: lesimu. Amola sigua ohe da ili bu hame fane manu. Ilia da gaga: iwane, amola eno dunuma mae beda: ne esalumu.
29 I will cause their land to be famous/well-known for its good crops. There will no longer be famines in the land, and people in other nations will no longer ridicule them.
Na da osobo nasegagi ilima imunu. Amola ilia sogega ha: su hame ba: mu. Amola fifi asi gala eno fi dunu da ilima bu hame ba: sola: mu.
30 Then they will know that I, Yahweh their God, am helping them, and they will know that they, the Israeli people, are my people.
Dunu huluanedafa da Na da Isala: ili fi gaga: lala amola ilia da Na fi dunu esala, amo dawa: mu. Na, Ouligisudafa Hina Gode da sia: i dagoi.
31 [It will be as though] [MET] my people are my sheep whom I will take care of, and I will be their God. That is what I, Yahweh the Lord, declare.’”
Dilia, Na sibi, sibi wa: i amoga Na da ha: i manu iaha, dilia da Na: , amola Na da dilia Gode,” Ouligisudafa Hina Gode da amane sia: sa.
