Ezekiel 33
1 Again the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
Ary tonga tamiko ny tenin’ i Jehovah nanao hoe:
2 Son of man, speak to the children of thy people, and say to them, When I bring the sword upon a land, if the people of the land take a man of their borders, and set him for their watchman:
Ry zanak’ olona, mitenena amin’ ny zanaky ny firenenao, ka lazao aminy hoe: Raha mahatonga sabatra amin’ ny tany anankiray Aho, ary ny tompon-tany maka lehilahy anankiray ao aminy ka manendry azy ho mpitily,
3 If when he seeth the sword come upon the land, he shall blow the trumpet, and warn the people;
ary hitan-dralehilahy fa, indro, avy ny sabatra, ka mitsoka ny anjomara hampitaitra ny olona izy,
4 Then whoever heareth the sound of the trumpet, and taketh not warning; if the sword shall come and take him away, his blood shall be upon his own head.
nefa tsy mety taitr izay mandre ny feon’ ny anjomara, dia tonga ny sabatra ka mandripaka azy, dia ho eo an-dohany ihany ny ràny.
5 He heard the sound of the trumpet, and took not warning; his blood shall be upon him. But he that taketh warning shall deliver his soul.
Nandre ny feon’ ny anjomara ihany izy, nefa tsy nety taitra; ho ao aminy ihany ny ràny; fa raha nety taitra izy, dia ho nahavonjy ny ainy ihany.
6 But if the watchman shall see the sword come, and blow not the trumpet, and the people be not warned; if the sword shall come, and take [any] person from among them, he is taken away in his iniquity; but his blood will I require at the watchman's hand.
Fa raha hitan’ ilay mpitily kosa fa, indro, avy ny sabatra, nefa tsy nitsoka ny anjomara izy, ka tsy notairina ny olona, ary tonga ny sabatra ka mandringana olona ao aminy, dia matin’ ny helony ihany iny; nefa ny ràny dia hadiniko amin’ ny tànan’ ilay mpitily.
7 So thou, O son of man, I have set thee a watchman to the house of Israel; therefore thou shalt hear the word at my mouth, and warn them from me.
Koa ianao, ry zanak’ olona, dia efa notendreko ho mpitily ho an’ ny taranak’ Isiraely, ka raha mandre ny teny aloaky ny vavako ianao, dia izany no ho entinao mananatra azy.
8 When I say to the wicked, O wicked [man], thou shalt surely die; if thou dost not speak to warn the wicked from his way, that wicked [man] shall die in his iniquity; but his blood will I require at thy hand.
Raha hoy Izaho amin’ ny ratsy fanahy: He! ry ilay ratsy fanahy, ho faty tokoa ianao! nefa tsy mety mananatra azy ianao hiala amin’ ny alehany, dia ho fatin’ ny helony ihany izany ratsy fanahy izany, fa ny ràny dia hadiniko amin’ ny tananao.
9 Nevertheless, if thou shalt warn the wicked of his way to turn from it; if he shall not turn from his way, he shall die in his iniquity; but thou hast delivered thy soul.
Fa raha mananatra ny ratsy fanahy ihany kosa ianao hiala amin’ ny lalany ratsy; fa izy no tsy mety miala amin’ izany, dia ho fatin’ ny helony ihany izy, nefa voavonjinao ny ainao.
10 Therefore, O thou son of man, speak to the house of Israel; Thus ye speak, saying, If our transgressions and our sins [are] upon us, and we pine away in them, how should we then live?
Ary ianao, ry zanak’ olona, mitenena amin’ ny taranak’ Isiraely hoe: Izao no fiteninareo: Eto aminay ny fahadisoanay sy ny fahotanay, ka mihalevona amin’ izany izahay, dia nahoana no mbola velona izahay?
11 Say to them, [As] I live, saith the Lord GOD, I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked; but that the wicked should turn from his way and live: turn ye, turn ye from your evil ways; for why will ye die, O house of Israel?
Lazao aminy hoe: Raha velona koa Aho, hoy Jehovah Tompo, dia tsy sitrako ny hahafatesan’ ny ratsy fanahy, fa ny hialan’ ny ratsy fanahy amin’ ny lalany, mba ho velona izy. Mialà, mialà amin’ ny lalan-dratsinareo, fa nahoana moa no te-ho faty ianareo, ry taranak’ Isiraely?
12 Therefore, thou son of man, say to the children of thy people, The righteousness of the righteous shall not deliver him in the day of his transgression: as for the wickedness of the wicked, he shall not fall by it in the day that he turneth from his wickedness; neither shall the righteous be able to live for his [righteousness] in the day that he sinneth.
Ary ianao, ry zanak’ olona’ lazao amin’ ny zanaky ny firenenao hoe: Ny fahamarinan’ ny marina tsy hahavonjy azy, raha mby amin’ ny andro ahadisoany; ary ny faharatsian’ ny ratsy fanahy tsy hahavoa azy, raha mby amin’ ny andro ialany amin’ ny faharatsiany; ary ny marina tsy ho velona noho ny fahamarinany, raha mby amin’ ny andro anotany.
13 When I shall say to the righteous, [that] he shall surely live; if he shall trust to his own righteousness, and commit iniquity, all his righteousnesses shall not be remembered; but for his iniquity that he hath committed, he shall die for it.
Raha lazaiko amin’ ny marina hoe: Ho velona tokoa ianao, nefa izy mitoky amin’ ny fahamarinany ka manao meloka, dia tsy hotsarovana ny fahamarinana rehetra izay nataony, fa ny heloka nataony no hahafaty azy.
14 Again, when I say to the wicked, Thou shalt surely die; if he shall turn from his sin, and do that which is lawful and right;
Ary koa, raha hoy Izaho kosa amin’ ny ratsy fanahy: Ho faty tokoa ianao, nefa miala amin’ ny fahotany izy sady manao izay marina sy mahitsy.
15 [If] the wicked shall restore the pledge, give again that which he had robbed, walk in the statutes of life, without committing iniquity; he shall surely live, he shall not die.
ka mamerina ny natao tsatòka sady mampody izay nangalariny ary mandeha araka ny didy mahavelona ka tsy manao meloka, dia ho velona tokoa izy, fa tsy ho faty.
16 None of his sins that he hath committed shall be mentioned to him: he hath done that which is lawful and right; he shall surely live.
Ny fahotana rehetra izay nataony dia tsy hotsarovana aminy intsony; manao izay marina sy mahitsy izy, ka dia ho velona tokoa.
17 Yet the children of thy people say, The way of the LORD is not equal: but as for them, their way is not equal.
Kanefa, hoy ny zanaky ny firenenao: Tsy marina ny fitondran’ ny Tompo; nefa ny fitondran’ ny tenany no tsy marina.
18 When the righteous turneth from his righteousness, and committeth iniquity, for that he shall even die.
Raha ny marina miala amin’ ny fahamarinany ka manao meloka, dia ho faty amin’ izany izy.
19 But if the wicked shall turn from his wickedness, and do that which is lawful and right, for that he shall live.
Ary raha ny ratsy fanahy miala amin’ ny faharatsiany ka manao izay marina sy mahitsy, dia ho velona amin’ izany izy.
20 Yet ye say, The way of the LORD is not equal. O ye house of Israel, I will judge you every one after his ways.
Kanefa, hoy ianareo: Tsy marina ny fitondran’ ny Tompo. He! ry taranak’ Isiraely, samy hotsaraiko araka ny alehany avy ianareo.
21 And it came to pass in the twelfth year of our captivity, in the tenth [month], in the fifth [day] of the month, [that] one that had escaped out of Jerusalem came to me, saying, The city is smitten.
Ary nony tamin’ ny andro fahadimy tamin’ ny volana fahafolo tamin’ ny taona faharoa ambin’ ny folo taorian’ ny namaboana antsika, dia nisy olona efa nandositra avy tany Jerosalema tonga tao amiko ka nanao hoe: Afaka ny tanàna.
22 Now the hand of the LORD was upon me in the evening, before he that had escaped came; and had opened my mouth, until he came to me in the morning; and my mouth was opened, and I was no more dumb.
Dia efa tonga tamiko ny tànan’ i Jehovah tamin’ ny omaly harivan’ ny andro nahatongavan’ ilay nandositra izay tonga tao amiko, ka nosokafany ny vavako mandra-pahatongan’ ilay nandositra, izay tonga tao amiko nony maraina; dia efa nisokatra ny vavako, ka tsy moana intsony aho.
23 Then the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
Dia tonga tamiko ny tenin’ i Jehovah nanao hoe:
24 Son of man, they that inhabit those wastes of the land of Israel speak, saying, Abraham was one, and he inherited the land: but we [are] many; the land is given to us for inheritance.
Ry zanak’ olona, ny monina amin’ ireny rava amin’ ny tanin’ ny Isiraely ireny dia manao hoe: Ireny ihany Abrahama, nefa nandova ny tany izy, fa isika kosa dia maro, ary omena antsika ny tany ho lovantsika
25 Wherefore say to them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Ye eat with the blood, and lift up your eyes towards your idols, and shed blood: and shall ye possess the land?
Koa lazao aminy hoe: Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah Tompo: Homan-javatra misy rà sady miandrandra ny sampinareo ianareo ary mandatsa-drà, moa hahazo handova ny tany va ianareo?
26 Ye stand upon your sword, ye work abomination, and ye defile every one his neighbor's wife: and shall ye possess the land?
Mitoky amin’ ny sabatrareo ianareo sady manao fahavetavetana, ka samy mandoto ny vadin’ ny namany avy; koa hahazo handova ny tany va ianareo?
27 Say thou thus to them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; [As] I live, surely they that [are] in the wastes shall fall by the sword, and him that [is] in the open field will I give to the beasts to be devoured, and they that [are] in the forts and in the caves shall die by the pestilence.
Izao no holazainao aminy: Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah Tompo: Raha velona koa Aho, dia tsy maintsy ho lavon’ ny sabatra izay ao amin’ ny tanàna rava, ary izay any an-tsaha dia homeko ho rembin’ ny bibi-dia, ary izay ao amin’ ny harambato sy amin’ ny lava-tany dia ho fatin’ ny areti-mandringana.
28 For I will lay the land most desolate, and the pomp of her strength shall cease; and the mountains of Israel shall be desolate, that none shall pass through.
Fa hataoko rava sy lao ny tany, ary hitsahatra ny fiavonavonan’ ny heriny; ho lao ny tendrombohitry ny Isiraely, ka tsy hisy mpandia azy.
29 Then shall they know that I [am] the LORD, when I have laid the land most desolate because of all their abominations which they have committed.
Dia ho fantany fa Izaho no Jehovah, raha hataoko rava sy lao ny tany noho ny fahavetavetana nataony.
30 Also, thou son of man, the children of thy people still are talking against thee by the walls and in the doors of the houses, and speak one to another, every one to his brother, saying, Come, I pray you, and hear what is the word that cometh forth from the LORD.
Ary ianao, ry zanak’ olona, ny zanaky ny firenenao dia miresaka anao eny am-bodirindrina sy eo am-baravaran’ ny tranony, ka samy manao amin’ ny rahalahiny hoe: Andeha isika, ary aoka handre izay teny avy amin’ i Jehovah.
31 And they come to thee as the people come, and they sit before thee [as] my people, and they hear thy words, but they will not do them: for with their mouth they show much love, [but] their heart goeth after their covetousness.
Dia mankao aminao tahaka ny fihavin’ ny olona izy ka mipetraka eo anatrehanao toa oloko ary mahare ny teninao, nefa tsy mety mankatò azy; fa, indro, teny mamy no lazain’ ny vavany, nefa ny fony dia lasa manaraka ny filan-karena.
32 And lo, thou [art] to them as a very lovely song of one that hath a pleasant voice, and can play well on an instrument: for they hear thy words, but they do not perform them.
Koa, indro, ianao dia ataony ho tahaka ny mpanao hira mahafinaritra, izay tsara feo sady mahay mitendry; fa mandre ny teninao izy, nefa tsy mety mankatò azy.
33 And when this cometh to pass, (lo, it will come, ) then shall they know that a prophet hath been among them.
Ary nony tanteraka izany (indro, efa ho tanteraka ihany), dia ho fantany fa efa nisy mpaminany tokoa tao aminy.
