Ezekiel 22
1 Moreover the LORD’s word came to me, saying,
Dubbiin Waaqayyoo akkana jedhee gara koo dhufe:
2 “You, son of man, will you judge? Will you judge the bloody city? Then cause her to know all her abominations.
“Yaa ilma namaa, isheetti murtaa? Magaalaa dhiiga dhangalaaftu kanatti ni murtaa? Yoos hojii ishee jibbisiisaa sana itti himi;
3 You shall say, ‘The Lord GOD says: “A city that sheds blood within herself, that her time may come, and that makes idols against herself to defile her!
akkanas jedhi: ‘Waaqayyo Gooftaan akkana jedha: Yaa magaalaa of keessatti dhiiga dhangalaasuudhaan badii ofitti fiddee waaqota tolfamoo tolchuudhaan of xureessitu,
4 You have become guilty in your blood that you have shed, and are defiled in your idols which you have made! You have caused your days to draw near, and have come to the end of your years. Therefore I have made you a reproach to the nations, and a mocking to all the countries.
ati sababii dhiiga dhangalaafte sanaatiif yakka hojjetteerta; sababii waaqota tolfamoo tolchiteef immoo xuroofteerta. Ati bara kee gabaabsiteerta; xumuramuun bara keetiis dhiʼaateera. Kanaafuu ani namoota ormaa biratti tuffatamtuu, biyyoota hundaaf immoo waan qoosaa sin taasisa.
5 Those who are near and those who are far from you will mock you, you infamous one, full of tumult.
Yaa magaalaa salphatee gooliin si keessa guute, warri dhiʼoo fi fagoo jiraatan sitti qoosu.
6 “‘“Behold, the princes of Israel, everyone according to his power, have been in you to shed blood.
“‘Akka tokkoon tokkoon ilmaan moototaa kanneen si keessa jiraatan humna isaaniitti fayyadamanii dhiiga dhangalaasan ilaali.
7 In you have they treated father and mother with contempt. Amongst you they have oppressed the foreigner. In you they have wronged the fatherless and the widow.
Abbootii fi haadhonni si keessatti salphifaman; alagoonni ni hacuucaman; ijoolleen abbaa hin qabnee fi haadhonni hiyyeessaa si keessatti miidhaman.
8 You have despised my holy things, and have profaned my Sabbaths.
Ati miʼoota koo qulqulluu tuffattee Sanbata koos xureessite.
9 Slanderous men have been in you to shed blood. In you they have eaten on the mountains. They have committed lewdness amongst you.
Namoonni dhiiga dhangalaasuuf maqaa nama balleessan si keessa jiru; warri galma waaqeffannaa tulluuwwan irraattii nyaatanii fi sagaagalan si keessa jiru.
10 In you have they uncovered their fathers’ nakedness. In you have they humbled her who was unclean in her impurity.
Namoonni siree abbaa isaanii xureessan si keessa jiru; namoonni dubartoota xurii jiʼaa qaban kanneen akka seeraatti qulqulluu hin taʼin wajjin ciisanis si keessa jiru.
11 One has committed abomination with his neighbour’s wife, and another has lewdly defiled his daughter-in-law. Another in you has humbled his sister, his father’s daughter.
Si keessatti namni tokko niitii ollaa isaa wajjin waan jibbisiisaa hojjeta; kaan haala fokkisaadhaan niitii ilma isaa xureessa; kaan immoo obboleettii isaa, intaluma abbaa isaa xureessa.
12 In you have they taken bribes to shed blood. You have taken interest and increase, and you have greedily gained of your neighbours by oppression, and have forgotten me,” says the Lord GOD.
Namoonni dhiiga dhangalaasuuf jedhanii si keessatti mattaʼaa fudhatu; atis hiiqii fi dhala fudhachuudhaan ollaa kee irraa buʼaa hin malle argachaa jirta. Ati na irraanfatteerta, jedha Waaqayyo Gooftaan.
13 “‘“Behold, therefore I have struck my hand at your dishonest gain which you have made, and at the blood which has been shed within you.
“‘Ani dhugumaan buʼaa ati karaa hin malleen argattee fi dhiiga ati gidduu keetti dhangalaafte sanaaf harka koo walitti nan rurrukuta.
14 Can your heart endure, or can your hands be strong, in the days that I will deal with you? I, the LORD, have spoken it, and will do it.
Gaafa ani si adabutti garaan kee jabaatee dhaabachuu yookaan harki kee humna qabaachuu dandaʼaa? Ani Waaqayyo dubbadheera; waan kanas nan godha.
15 I will scatter you amongst the nations, and disperse you through the countries. I will purge your filthiness out of you.
Ani saboota keessa sin bittinneessa; biyyoota keessas sin facaasa; xuraaʼummaa kees sirraa nan qulqulleessa.
16 You will be profaned in yourself in the sight of the nations. Then you will know that I am the LORD.”’”
Ati yeroo fuula sabootaa duratti xurooftetti akka ani Waaqayyo taʼe ni beekta.’”
17 The LORD’s word came to me, saying,
Ergasii dubbiin Waaqayyoo akkana jedhee gara koo dhufe:
18 “Son of man, the house of Israel has become dross to me. All of them are bronze, tin, iron, and lead in the middle of the furnace. They are the dross of silver.
“Yaa ilma namaa, manni Israaʼel udaan sibiilaa natti taʼeera; hundi isaanii naasii, qorqorroo, sibiilaa fi dilaalii boolla ibiddaa keessatti dhiifame natti taʼaniiru. Isaan udaanuma meetiiti malee homaa miti.
19 Therefore the Lord GOD says: ‘Because you have all become dross, therefore, behold, I will gather you into the middle of Jerusalem.
Kanaafuu Waaqayyo gooftaan akkana jedha: ‘Sababii hundi keessan udaan sibiilaa taataniif, ani Yerusaalem keessatti walittan isin qaba.
20 As they gather silver, bronze, iron, lead, and tin into the middle of the furnace, to blow the fire on it, to melt it, so I will gather you in my anger and in my wrath, and I will lay you there and melt you.
Akkuma namoonni meetii, naasii, sibiila, dilaalii fi qorqorroo baqsuuf jedhanii boolla ibiddaatti guuran sana, anis aarii fi dheekkamsa kootiin walitti isin qabee magaalaa keessatti isinan baqsa.
21 Yes, I will gather you, and blow on you with the fire of my wrath, and you will be melted in the middle of it.
Ani walitti isin qabee ibidda dheekkamsa kootii isinitti nan buufa; isinis ishee keessatti ni baqfamtu.
22 As silver is melted in the middle of the furnace, so you will be melted in the middle of it; and you will know that I, the LORD, have poured out my wrath on you.’”
Akkuma meetiin boolla ibiddaa keessatti baqfamu sana, isinis ishee keessatti ni baqfamtu; akka ani Waaqayyo dheekkamsa koo isinitti roobses ni beektu.’”
23 The LORD’s word came to me, saying,
Ammas dubbiin Waaqayyoo akkana jedhee gara koo dhufe:
24 “Son of man, tell her, ‘You are a land that is not cleansed nor rained on in the day of indignation.’
“Yaa ilma namaa biyya sanaan, ‘Ati biyya hin qulqulleeffamin yookaan kan bara dheekkamsaa keessa bokkaan itti hin roobinii dha’ jedhi.
25 There is a conspiracy of her prophets within it, like a roaring lion ravening the prey. They have devoured souls. They take treasure and precious things. They have made many widows within it.
Ilmaan mootota ishee akkuma leenca waan adamsate ciccirachaa aaduu ti; isaan saba nyaatu; qabeenyaa fi miʼoota gatii guddaa saamuudhaan dubartoota hedduu dhirsa malee hambisu.
26 Her priests have done violence to my law and have profaned my holy things. They have made no distinction between the holy and the common, neither have they caused men to discern between the unclean and the clean, and have hidden their eyes from my Sabbaths. So I am profaned amongst them.
Luboonni ishee seera koo cabsanii miʼoota koo qulqulluu xureessu; isaan waan qulqullaaʼee fi waan hin qulqullaaʼin gargar hin baasan; kan hin qulqullaaʼinii fi kan qulqullaaʼe gidduu garaa garummaan hin jiru jedhanii barsiisu; akka ani isaan gidduutti tuffatamuuf Sanbatoota koo eeguu irraa ija isaanii dunuunfatu.
27 Her princes within it are like wolves ravening the prey, to shed blood and to destroy souls, that they may get dishonest gain.
Ishee keessatti qondaaltonni ishee akkuma yeeyyiiwwan waan adamsatan ciccirachaa jiranii ti; isaan buʼaa hin malle argachuuf jedhanii dhiiga dhangalaasu; namootas ni ajjeesu.
28 Her prophets have plastered for them with whitewash, seeing false visions, and divining lies to them, saying, ‘The Lord GOD says,’ when the LORD has not spoken.
Raajonni ishees hojii kana mulʼata sobaatii fi raajii sobaatiin haguugu. Isaan utuma Waaqayyo hin dubbatin, ‘Waaqayyo Gooftaan akkana jedha’ jedhu.
29 The people of the land have used oppression and exercised robbery. Yes, they have troubled the poor and needy, and have oppressed the foreigner wrongfully.
Sabni biyya sanaa ni cunqursu; ni saamus; murtii qajeelaa gananii hiyyeeyyii fi rakkattoota hacuucu; alagootas ni miidhu.
30 “I sought for a man amongst them who would build up the wall and stand in the gap before me for the land, that I would not destroy it; but I found no one.
“Nama akka ani biyyattii hin balleessineef dallaa ijaaree biyyattiidhaaf jedhee karaa qaawwaatiin fuula koo dura dhaabatu isaan gidduu nan barbaade; garuu nama tokko illee hin arganne.
31 Therefore I have poured out my indignation on them. I have consumed them with the fire of my wrath. I have brought their own way on their heads,” says the Lord GOD.
Kanaafuu ani dheekkamsa koo isaanitti roobsee ibidda aarii kootiitiin isaan nan fixa; waan isaan godhan hunda mataa isaaniitti nan fida, jedha Waaqayyo Gooftaan.”
