Ezekiel 24
1 The word of Yahweh came to me in the ninth year, in the tenth month, and on the tenth day of the month, saying,
Tarik apar, dwe mar apar, e higa mar ochiko, wach Jehova Nyasaye nobirona kama:
2 “Son of man, write for yourself the name of this day, this exact day, for this exact day the king of Babylon has besieged Jerusalem.
Wuod dhano, ndik tarigni piny, nikech ruodh Babulon oseluoro Jerusalem kawuononi.
3 So speak a proverb against this rebellious house, a parable. Say to them, 'The Lord Yahweh says this: Place the cooking pot. Place it and pour water into it.
Gone oganda mohero ngʼanyoni ngeroni, kendo wach nigi ni ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto wacho: “‘Ket aguch tedo e kendo; kendo iol pi e iye.
4 Gather pieces of food within it, every good piece—the thigh and shoulder— and fill it with the best bones.
Ket ringʼo mosengʼadi matindo tindo e iye, ringʼo machwe duto; ma gin em gi bat. Pongʼe gi choke machwe duto;
5 Take the best of the flock and pile up the bones under it. Bring it to a boil and cook the bones in it.
kendo yier chiayo mopugno mogik ei kweth. Chan yiende mabeyo e bwoye ni chokego; eka chwakeuru maber, mondo ochiegi maber nyak choke.
6 Therefore the Lord Yahweh says this: Woe to the city of blood, a cooking pot that has rust in it and that rust will not come out of it. Take piece after piece from it, but do not cast lots for it.
“‘Nikech ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto wacho: “‘Okwongʼ dala maduongʼ michweroe remo, ma en agulu motimo chilo, agulu ma chinde ok bi rumo. Goluru ringʼo duto e iye achiel kachiel ma ok uweyo moro e iye kata matin.
7 For her blood is in the midst of her. She has set it on the smooth rock; she has not poured it out on the ground to cover it with dust,
“‘Nikech remo mane ochwero ni kuome: ne oole e lwanda nono; ne ok oole e lowo, kama buru ne nyalo ume.
8 so it brings fury up to exact vengeance. I placed her blood on the smooth rock so it could not be covered.
An bende aseweyo rembeno ewi lwandano ma ok oume mondo owangʼ iya, mi achul kuor.
9 Therefore, the Lord Yahweh says this: Woe to the city of blood. I will also enlarge the pile of wood.
“‘Kuom mano, ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto owacho: “‘Okwongʼ dala maduongʼ machwero remo! An bende abiro chanone yiende modhi malo.
10 Stack up the wood and kindle the fire. Cook the meat well and mix in the spices and let the bones be charred.
Omiyo chan yien kendo imok mach. Ted ringʼono maber, kiriwe gi apilo; kendo ne ni chokegi otedore maber.
11 Then set the pot on its coals empty, in order to heat and scorch its bronze, so its uncleanness within it will be melted, its corrosion consumed.'
Eka iketi agulu ma iye ninono ewi makaa mi odok maliet kendo nyinje lokre makwar, mondo omi chilone duto oleny oko kendo chinde wangʼ marum.
12 She has become weary because of toil, but her corrosion has not gone out of her by the fire.
Asetemo konye motamore; chilo momoko kuome pek ma ok wuogi, kata wangʼ gi mach.
13 Your shameful behavior is in your uncleanness. Because I tried to cleanse you but still you would not be cleansed from your uncleanness, you will not be cleansed anymore until I have satisfied my fury upon you.
“‘Timbeni mag chode osemiyo ibet modwanyore. Ne atemo luoki, to ne ok inyal bedo maler, koro ok ibi bedo maler nyaka mirimba mochomi rum.
14 I, Yahweh, have declared it, and I will do it. I will not relent nor will I rest from it. As your ways were, and as your activities, they will judge you!—this is the Lord Yahweh's declaration.”
“‘An Jehova Nyasaye ema asewacho kamano. Sa osechopo mondo ati tija monego atim. Ok abi kechi; ok abi ngʼwononi, bende ok abi lokora. Ibiro ngʼadni bura kaluwore gi timbeni gi yoreni, Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto ema owacho.’”
15 Then the word of Yahweh came to me, saying,
Wach Jehova Nyasaye nobirona kama:
16 “Son of man! Behold, I am taking the desire of your eyes from you with a plague, but you must not mourn nor weep, and your tears must not flow.
“Wuod dhano, abiro mayi ngʼat ma chunyi ohero ahinya apoya nono. Kik ingʼur, kik iywagi bende pi wangʼi kik chwer.
17 You must groan silently. Do not conduct a funeral for the dead. Tie your turban on you and place your sandals on your feet, but do not veil your facial hair or eat the bread of men who mourn for having lost their wives.”
Chunyi to inyalo omo aoma mos, to kik itim timbe mag ywak kaka wuotho gi wich nono, wuotho gi tielo nono maonge wuoche bende kik ium lela wangʼi kendo kik icham chiemb liel.”
18 So I spoke to the people in the morning, and my wife died in the evening. In the morning I did what I had been commanded to do.
Omiyo ne awuoyo gi ji gokinyi, to godhiambono chiega notho. Kinyne gokinyi ne atimo kaka ne osechika mondo atim.
19 The people asked me, “Will you not tell us what these things mean, the things that you are doing?”
Eka ji nopenja niya, “Donge inyalo nyisowae yo ma gik mitimogi omakowago?”
20 So I said to them, “The word of Yahweh came to me, saying,
Omiyo ne awachonegi niya, “Wach Jehova Nyasaye nobirona kama:
21 'Say to the house of Israel, the Lord Yahweh says this: Behold! I will desecrate my sanctuary—the pride of your power, the delight of your eyes, and the yearning of your soul, and your sons and your daughters whom you left behind will fall by the sword.
Wachne dhood Israel ni, ‘Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto owacho: Achiegni ketho kara maler mar lemo ma en kama sungau nitie, momako wengeu, kendo muhero gi lala. Yawuotu gi nyiu muweyo chien biro podho e dho ligangla.
22 Then you will do exactly as I have done: you will not veil your facial hair, nor eat the bread of mourning men!
Ubiro timo kaka asetimo. Ok ubi umo lela wengeu kata chamo chiemb liel.
23 Instead, your turbans will be on your heads, and your sandals on your feet; you will not mourn nor weep, for you will melt away in your iniquities, and each man will groan for his brother.
Ubiro rwako arwaka kilembau ewiu kaka pile, kod pat pat magu e tiendeu. Ok ubi ywak kata goyo nduru, to chira biro makou kendo ubiro chur nikech richou.
24 So Ezekiel will be a sign for you, as everything that he has done you will do when this comes. Then you will know that I am the Lord Yahweh!'”
Ezekiel biro bedonu ranyisi; ubiro timo mana kaka osetimo. Ka mano otimore to ubiro ngʼeyo ni An e Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto.’
25 “But you, son of man, on the day that I capture their temple, which is their joy, their pride, and what they see and desire—and when I take away their sons and daughters—
“To in, wuod dhano, chiengʼ ma anamagie ohinga margi, gi morgi kod duongʼ-gi; bende anamagi gima wengegi omokeno, kendo ma chunygi ohero gi lala; kaachiel gi yawuotgi kod nyigi.
26 on that day, a refugee will come to you to give you the news!
Odiechiengno em ngʼat ma notony nobi iri kendo nonyisi gik mosetimore.
27 On that day your mouth will be opened up to that refugee and you will speak—you will no longer be silent. You will be a sign for them so that they will know that I am Yahweh.”
To dhogi noyawre sa nogono; mi iniwuo kode kendo ok inilingʼ. Kuom mano, inibednegi ranyisi, kendo giningʼe ni An e Jehova Nyasaye.”
