Ezekiel 7
1 Yahweh gave me another message. [He said]
Yehova anandipatsa uthenga uwu kuti,
2 “You human, this is what [I], Yahweh the Lord, say to [the people] [MTY] of Israel: All of Israel will soon be destroyed.
“Iwe mwana wa munthu, Ine Ambuye Yehova ndikuwuza dziko la Israeli kuti: “Chimaliziro! Chimaliziro chafika ku ngodya zinayi za dziko.
3 [people of Israel], the end has come. I will punish you severely. I will judge you for all the wicked things that you have done, and pay you back for your disgusting behavior.
Chimaliziro chili pa iwe tsopano. Mkwiyo wanga ndidzawuthira pa iwe. Ndidzakuweruza molingana ndi machitidwe ako ndi kukulanga chifukwa cha zonyansa zako.
4 I will not pity you or act mercifully toward you. I will [surely] punish you for your wicked behavior [DOU]. Then you will know that [it has happened because] I, Yahweh, [have done it].”
Ine sindidzakumvera chisoni kapena kukuleka. Ndidzakulanga ndithu chifukwa cha ntchito zako zoyipa komanso chifukwa cha miyambo yako yonyansa imene ili pakati pako. Pamenepo udzadziwa kuti Ine ndine Yehova.”
5 This is [also] what Yahweh the Lord says: “You will soon experience many terrible disasters!
“Zimene ndikunena Ine Ambuye Yehova ndi izi: “Chiwonongeko! Chiwonongeko chimene sichinamvekepo! Taona chikubwera!
6 This will be the [of Israel]; your country will be finished! And your [lives] will be ended [PRS]!
Chimaliziro chafika! Chimaliziro chafika! Chiwonongeko chakugwera. Taona chafika!
7 It will be the end of you people who live in the [of Israel]. The time has come; the [when you will be destroyed] is near. At that time [the people who worship idols] on the mountains will not be happy; they will panic.
Inu anthu okhala mʼdziko, chiwonongeko chakugwerani. Nthawi yafika, tsiku layandikira; tsiku la chisokonezo osati la chimwemwe pa mapiri.
8 I am very angry with you and am about to pour out my punishment [MTY] on you. I will judge you for all the wicked things that you have done and pay you back for your disgusting behavior.
Ine ndili pafupi kukukwiyirani, ndipo ukali wanga udzathera pa iwe; Ine ndidzakuweruza molingana ndi machitidwe ako ndiponso ndidzakulanga chifukwa cha miyambo yako yonyansa.
9 I will not pity you or act mercifully toward you. I will surely punish you for your wicked behavior [DOU]. Then you will know that it is I, Yahweh, who have punished you.
Ine sindidzakumvera chisoni kapena kukuleka. Ndidzakulanga malingana ndi ntchito zako ndiponso chifukwa cha miyambo yako yonyansa pakati pako.
10 The [of your punishment] is here! It has arrived! Disasters have come.
“Taona, tsikulo! Taona, lafika! Chiwonongeko chako chabwera. Ndodo yaphuka mphundu za maluwa. Kudzitama kwaphuka.
11 People are acting violently and doing more wicked things. And nothing that belongs to those people will be left, none of their money, nothing that is valuable.
Chiwawa chasanduka ndodo yowakwapulira chifukwa cha kuyipa kwawo. Palibe mwa anthu amenewo amene adzatsale. Palibe ndi mmodzi yemwe mwa unyinji wawo. Palibiretu ndipo sipadzapezeka munthu wowalira maliro.
12 Now is the time; that day has arrived.
Nthawi yafika! Tsiku layandikira! Munthu wogula asakondwere ndipo wogulitsa asamve chisoni, popeza ukali wanga uli pa gulu lonse.
13 People who buy things should not [because of buying things very cheaply], and those who sell things should not be [because they had to sell things cheaply], [Yahweh] will be punishing [MTY] everyone. During the rest of their lives, people who sell some of their property will never be able to buy it back, because I, Yahweh, will never change my mind about what I have declared; because of your sins, [I will destroy] all of you people.
Wogulitsa sadzazipezanso zinthu zimene anagulitsa kwa wina chinkana onse awiri akanali ndi moyo, pakuti chilango chidzagwera onsewo ndipo sichingasinthike. Chifukwa cha machimo awo, palibe aliyense amene adzapulumutsa moyo wake.
14 Even though [soldiers] blow [to prepare for] a battle, no soldier will go into a battle, because I will have killed all of them.
“Lipenga lalira, ndipo zonse zakonzeka. Koma palibe ndi mmodzi yemwe amene akupita ku nkhondo, pakuti mkwiyo wanga uli pa gulu lonse.
15 [When those things happen, your enemies] will be [the city] with their swords, and there will be plagues and famines [the city]. [who flee from the city] into the countryside will be killed [their enemies’] swords, and those who stay in the city will die from famines and plagues.
Ku bwalo kuli kumenyana ndipo mʼkati muli mliri ndi njala. Anthu okhala ku midzi adzafa ndi nkhondo. Iwo okhala ku mizinda adzafa ndi mliri ndi njala.
16 Those who survive and escape will flee to the mountains, and they all will moan like doves because of their sins.
Onse amene adzapulumuka ndi kumakakhala ku mapiri, azidzalira ngati nkhunda za ku zigwa. Aliyense azidzabuwula chifukwa cha machimo ake.
17 [Because everyone will be very afraid, ] all the people’s hands will become limp and their knees will become very weak.
Dzanja lililonse lidzalefuka, ndipo bondo lililonse lidzalobodoka ngati madzi.
18 They will put on clothes made from rough cloth, and they will be terrified. Their faces will show that they are ashamed, and they will shave their [to show that they are very sad].
Iwo adzavala ziguduli ndipo adzagwidwa ndi mantha. Adzakhala ndi nkhope zamanyazi ndipo mitu yawo adzameta mpala.
19 They will throw their silver into the streets, and consider that their gold is only like [SIM] garbage, because they will realize that their silver and gold will not be able to rescue them when I, Yahweh, punish them. They will not be able to use their gold and silver to buy things to fill their stomachs, because having a lot of gold and silver has led them to sin.
“Iwo adzataya siliva wawo mʼmisewu ndipo golide wawo adzakhala chinthu chonyansa. Siliva ndi golide wawo sizidzatha kuwapulumutsa pa tsiku la ukali wa Yehova. Chuma chawochi sichidzawathandiza kuthetsa njala, kapena kukhala okhuta, pakuti ndicho chinawagwetsa mʼmachimo.
20 They were proud of their beautiful jewelry, and they used it to make their detestable idols and disgusting [of their gods]. So I will cause them to be disgusted with those things.
Iwo ankanyadira zodzikongoletsera zawo zamakaka ndipo ankazigwiritsa ntchito kupanga mafano awo onyansa ndi zonyansa zawo zina. Nʼchifukwa chake Ine ndidzazisandutsa kukhala zowanyansa.
21 I will give their silver and gold to foreigners who invade your country and take away your valuable treasures. I will give those things to wicked people, and they will do disgraceful things to those treasures that I give them.
Ndidzazipereka kwa alendo kuti azifunkhe. Anthu oyipa a dziko lapansi adzazilanda ndi kudziyipitsa.
22 I will not (interfere with/stop) [IDM] robbers when they enter my sacred temple and desecrate it.
Ine ndidzawalekerera anthuwo ndipo adzayipitsa malo anga apamtima. Adzalowamo ngati mbala ndi kuyipitsamo.
23 Prepare chains to be fastened on you. People are being murdered [MTY] throughout the country, and people are acting violently throughout the city.
“Konzani maunyolo, chifukwa dziko ladzaza ndi anthu opha anzawo ndipo mzinda wadzaza ndi chiwawa.
24 So I will bring armies of the nations whose people are extremely wicked to occupy the houses of the Israeli people. I will cause Israeli [who think that they] are [IRO] strong/mighty to no longer be proud. Your enemies will cause your places of worship to no longer be acceptable to be used.
Ndidzabweretsa mitundu ya anthu oyipitsitsa kuti idzalande nyumba zawo. Ndidzathetsa kunyada kwa anthu amphamvu pamene anthu akunja adzalowa mʼmalo awo achipembedzo ndi kuyipitsamo.
25 When your enemies cause you to be terrified, you will plead for them to make peace, but there will be no peace.
Nkhawa ikadzawafikira adzafunafuna mtendere koma osawupeza.
26 You will experience many disasters, and you will continually hear [about disasters that are happening in other places]. People will plead with prophets to tell them what visions they have received, [but the prophets will not have received any visions]. Priests will no longer teach people the [that I gave to Moses].
Tsoka lidzatsatana ndi tsoka linzake, ndipo mphekesera idzatsatana ndi mphekesera inzake. Iwo adzayesa kufuna masomphenya kuchokera kwa mneneri. Adzasowa ansembe owaphunzitsa malamulo, ndipo anthu akuluakulu sadzakhalanso ndi uphungu.
27 Your king will mourn, and his son will no [longer] [that good things will happen]. The hands of people throughout the country will tremble. And I will do to them what they deserve for their wicked behavior. I will [and condemn] them the same way they have [and condemned] others. Then they will know that I, Yahweh, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].”
Mfumu idzalira, kalonga adzagwidwa ndi mantha. Manja a anthu a mʼdzikomo azidzangonjenjemera ndi mantha. Ine ndidzawalanga molingana ndi machitidwe awo, ndipo ndidzawaweruza molingana ndi momwe anaweruzira anzawo.
