Ezekiel 4
1 [Yahweh also said to me, ] “You human, take a large clay tablet/brick and put it in front of you. Then on the [engrave/draw] on it lines that represent Jerusalem.
“Ngem sika, anak ti tao, mangalaka iti ladrilio ket ikabilmo daytoy iti sangoanam. Ket iti rabaw daytoy, ikur-itmo ti siudad ti Jerusalem.
2 [draw figures around it to represent enemy soldiers who will] surround the city. Make mounds around it and a dirt ramp up against the [around the city]. [figures around it that represent] (battering rams/heavy logs that will break though the walls).
Ket mangikabilka iti manglakub iti daytoy, ken mangipatakderka kadagiti sarikedked a maibusor iti daytoy. Mangikabilka iti pagkalay-atan dagiti kabusor ken mangaramidka kadagiti kampo iti aglikmut daytoy. Mangikabilka iti sinan-maso a pagrakrak iti aglawlaw daytoy.
3 Then take an iron pan, and place it [to be] like an iron wall between you [the drawing of] the city. Then turn your face toward the drawing. It will symbolize [enemy troops will] surround the city to attack it. That will be a warning to the Israeli people [MTY].
Ket mangalaka iti landok a pariok, ket aramatem daytoy a kas landok a bakud iti nagbaetan ti bagim ken ti siudad. Sumangoka a makaung-unget iti siudad, ta malakubto daytoy. Isu a mangikabilka iti manglakub iti daytoy! Agpaayto daytoy a pagilasinan iti balay ti Israel.
4 Then lie on your left side, and stay like that for 390 days. That [symbolize that the Israeli people will be punished for] their sins; you must lie like that one day for each year during which they will be punished.
Kalpasanna, agiddaka nga agsikig iti kannigidmo ket lak-amem ti basol ti balay ti Israel; baklayemto ti basolda segun iti bilang dagiti aldaw a nakaiddaka maibusor iti balay ti Israel.
Tinudinganka iti maysa aldaw a katukad iti tunggal tawen a pannakadusada: 390 nga aldaw! Iti kastoy a wagas, baklayemto ti basol ti balay ti Israel.
6 After that, lie down again. This time, lie on your right side for 40 days. That [symbolize that the Israeli people will be punished more] for their sins, one day for each [during which they will be punished].
Inton maileppasmo dagitoy nga aldaw, iti maikadua a gundaway ket agiddaka a nakasikig iti makannawanmo, ta baklayemto ti basol ti balay ti Juda iti las-ud ti uppat a pulo nga aldaw. Tinudinganka iti maysa nga aldaw iti tunggal tawen.
7 Turn your face [the drawing of] Jerusalem and bare your [like a soldier does who prepares to go into a battle] [MTY], and prophesy [what will happen to] the city.
Ket saanmo nga isina ti panagkitam iti pannakalakub ti Jerusalem, a nakalislis ti manggas ti badom ket agipadtokanto iti maibusor iti siudad.
8 [You will not be able to move; it will be as though] I have tied you with ropes in order that you cannot turn from one side to the other until you have [symbolizing how many years the city] will be (besieged/surrounded by enemy soldiers).
Ta kitaem! parparautanka tapno saanka a makaballikid agingga a maileppasmo dagiti aldaw a pananglakubmo.
9 [Before you do that, ] take some wheat and barley, beans, lentils, spelt and millet, and put them in a [storage] jar, and use that to bake [for yourself]. That is what you will eat during the 390 days while you lie on your [left] side.
Mangalaka iti trigo, sebada, bubukel, patani, miho ken espelta; paglalaokem dagitoy iti maysa a pagkargaan ket manglutoka iti tinapay a kanemto segun iti bilang dagiti aldaw nga agiddaka a nakasikig. Ta kanemto daytoy iti las-ud ti 390 nga aldaw!
10 You will eat (8 ounces/a small loaf) of bread each day.
Daytoyto ti kanem a taraonmo: duapulo a siklo kada aldaw. Mangankanto iti maituding a pannanganmo.
11 [Also] measure out (1.5 pints/0.6 liter) of water to drink each day.
Ken uminomkanto iti dua a baso. Inumemto daytoy iti maituding a pannanganmo.
12 Eat that bread like you would eat a loaf of barley bread. But use your own dried dung for fuel to bake the bread while people are watching.
Kanemto daytoy a kas kadagiti bibingka a naaramid iti sebada, ngem lutoemto daytoy iti imatangda babaen iti namaga a rugit ti tao!”
13 That will symbolize that the Israeli people will be forced to eat food that is unacceptable to me when they are living in the nations to which I will force them to go.”
Ta kuna ni Yahweh, “Ti kayat a sawen daytoy a narugitto ti tinapay a kanen dagiti tattao ti Israel, kadagiti nasion a pangiwarawaraakto kadakuada.”
14 Then I said, “No, Yahweh God![Do not force me to do that]! I have never caused myself to become unacceptable to you [by doing anything like that]. From the time when I was young, I have never eaten meat of any [animal] that was found dead or that had been killed by wild animals. And I have never eaten any meat that is unacceptable to you.”
Ngem kinunak, “Saan, Yahweh nga Apo! Saanak a pulos a nagbalin a narugit! Saanak pay a pulos a nangan iti aniaman a natay wenno aniaman a pinatay dagiti ayup, manipud kinaagtutubok nga agingga ita, ken awan pay ti immuneg a narugit a karne iti ngiwatko!”
15 Yahweh replied, “Okay, I will allow you to bake your bread using dried cow manure instead of human [for fuel].”
Isu a kinunana kaniak, “Kitaem! inikkanka kadagiti takki ti baka imbes a rugit ti tao tapno mailutom ti tinapaymo iti rabaw ti takki ti baka.”
16 Then he said to me, “You human, I will cause the supply of food to Jerusalem to be cut off. [Then] the people will eat the small amounts of food and drink the small amounts of [that the government permits them to have], and they will be [very] distressed and anxious as they do that,
Kinunana pay kaniak, “Anak ti tao, kitaem! Isardengkon ti panangtedko iti taraon iti Jerusalem, ket madandanagandanto a mangan iti tinapay bayat a maibunbunong daytoy ken agpigergerda nga umin-inom iti danum bayat a maibunbunong daytoy.
17 because water and food will be very scarce. They will see each other becoming extremely thin, and they will be appalled; [but this will happen] because they are being punished [for the sins that they have committed].”
Gapu ta agkurangdanto iti taraon ken danum, maupaydanto iti kabsatda ket kasla marunawda gapu iti kinadakesda.”
