Ezekiel 6

1 The word of Yahweh came to me, saying,

Yehowa ƒe nya va gbɔnye be,

2 “Son of man, set your face against the mountains of Israel and prophesy to them.

“Ame vi, trɔ mo de Israel ƒe towo; gblɔ nya ɖi ɖe wo ŋu,

3 Say, 'Mountains of Israel, listen to the word of the Lord Yahweh! The Lord Yahweh says this to the mountains and to the hills, to the streambeds, and to the valleys: Behold! I am bringing a sword against you, and I will destroy your high places.

eye nàgblɔ be, ‘O Israel ƒe towo, mise Aƒetɔ Yehowa ƒe nyawo. Esiae nye nya si Aƒetɔ Yehowa gblɔ na towo kple togbɛwo, na agadowo kple balimewo: mele yi tsɔ ge ɖe mia ŋu, eye magblẽ miaƒe nuxeƒewo.

4 Then your altars will become desolate and your pillars will be destroyed, and I will throw down your dead in front of their idols.

Woagbã miaƒe vɔsamlekpuiwo, woakaka vɔsamlekpui siwo dzi miedoa dzudzɔ ʋeʋĩ le, eye mawu miaƒe amewo le miaƒe legbawo ŋgɔ.

5 I will lay the dead bodies of the people of Israel before their idols, and scatter your bones around your altars.

Matsɔ Israelvi kukuwo amlɔ woƒe legbawo ŋgɔ, eye makaka miaƒe ƒuwo aƒo xlã miaƒe vɔsamlekpuiwo.

6 Everywhere you live, cities will be laid waste and the high places ruined, so that your altars will be laid waste and made desolate. Then they will be broken and disappear, your pillars will be cut down and your works will be wiped away.

Afi sia afi si mianɔ la, miaƒe duwo azu aƒedo, eye woagbã miaƒe nuxeƒewo, woagbã miaƒe vɔsamlekpuiwo, eye woatsrɔ̃ wo; woagbã miaƒe legbawo, woagbã miaƒe vɔsamlekpui siwo dzi miedoa dzudzɔ ʋeʋĩ le, eye woatsrɔ̃ nu siwo miewɔ.

7 The dead will fall down in your midst and you will know that I am Yahweh.

Woawu miaƒe amewo le mia dome, eye mianya be nyee nye Yehowa.’”

8 But I will preserve a remnant among you, and there will be some who escape the sword among the nations, when you are scattered throughout the countries.

“Ke maɖe ame aɖewo ya, elabena mia dometɔ aɖewo asi le yinu ne wokaka mi ɖe anyigba dzi kple dukɔwo dome.

9 Then those who escape will think of me among the nations where they will be held captive, that I was grieved by their promiscuous heart that turned away from me, and by their eyes that whored after their idols. Then they will show loathing on their face for the wickedness which they have committed with all their abominations.

Ekema le dukɔ siwo me woɖe aboyo wo yi la, ame siwo asi la, aɖo ŋku dzinye. Woaɖo ŋku ale si woƒe ahasiwɔdzi siwo trɔ le yonyeme kple ale si woƒe ŋkuwo nɔ woƒe legbawo ŋu la na mese vevee la dzi, woase veve ɖe nu vɔ̃ɖi siwo wowɔ kple woƒe wɔna nyɔŋuwo katã ta.

10 So they will know that I am Yahweh. It was for a reason that I said I would bring this evil to them.

Woanya be nyee nye Yehowa; nyemedo ŋɔdzi na wo dzodzro be mahe dzɔgbevɔ̃e sia va wo dzii o.”

11 The Lord Yahweh says this: Clap your hands and stomp your foot! Say, 'Alas!' because of all the evil abominations of the house of Israel! For they will fall by sword, famine, and plague.

“Nya si Aƒetɔ Yehowa gblɔe nye, ‘Miƒo asikpe, mitu afɔ anyi, eye miado ɣli be, “Ao!” Le Israel ƒe aƒe la ƒe nu vɔ̃ɖiwo kple ŋunyɔnuwo katã ta, elabena yi, dɔwuame kple dɔvɔ̃ atsrɔ̃ wo.

12 The one far away will die by plague, and the one who is near will fall by the sword. Those who remain and survive will die by famine. In this way I will accomplish my fury against them.

Ame si le adzɔge ʋĩi la, dɔvɔ̃ awui, ame si le kpuiƒe la, yi awui, eye ame si atsi agbe la, aku le dɔwuame ta. Alea mawɔ nye dziku ŋu dɔ ɖe wo ŋutie.

13 Then you will know that I am Yahweh, when their dead lie among their idols, around their altars, on every high hill—on all the mountain peaks, and under every flourishing tree and thick oak—the places where they burned incense to all their idols.

Ale woanya be nyee nye Yehowa, ne woƒe ame kukuwo mlɔ woƒe legbawo dome, eye ɖewo ƒo xlã woƒe vɔsamlekpuiwo le nuxeƒe ɖe sia ɖe kple to ɖe sia ɖe dzi, le ati dama kple oɖumti dama ɖe sia ɖe te, teƒe siwo katã wodoa dzudzɔ ʋeʋĩ na woƒe legbawo katã le.

14 I will strike with my hand and make the land desolate and a waste, from the wilderness to Diblah, throughout all the places where they live. Then they will know that I am Yahweh.”

Mado nye asi ɖa ɖe wo ŋu, eye mana woƒe anyigba nazu gbegbe, tso gbegbe la to yi Dibla, afi sia afi si woanɔ. Ekema woanya be nyee nye Yehowa.’”
