Ezekiel 2
1 He said to me, “Son of man, stand on your feet, and I will speak with you.”
Iye anandiwuza kuti, “Iwe mwana wa munthu, imirira kuti ndiyankhule nawe.”
2 The Spirit entered into me when he spoke to me, and set me on my feet; and I heard him who spoke to me.
Pamene ankayankhula nane, Mzimu wa Mulungu unalowa mwa ine ndipo unandiyimiritsa, ndipo ndinamva Iye akundiyankhula.
3 He said to me, “Son of man, I send you to the children of Israel, to a nation of rebels who have rebelled against me. They and their fathers have transgressed against me even to this very day.
Iye anati, “Iwe mwana wa munthu, Ine ndikukutuma kwa Aisraeli, mtundu wa anthu owukira umene wandiwukira Ine; Iwo ndi makolo awo akhala akundiwukira Ine mpaka lero lino.
4 The children are impudent and stiff-hearted. I am sending you to them, and you shall tell them, ‘This is what the Lord Yahweh says.’
Ndikukutuma kwa anthu okanika ndiponso nkhutukumve. Ndikukutuma kuti akawawuze zimene Ine Ambuye Yehova ndikunena.
5 They, whether they will hear, or whether they will refuse—for they are a rebellious house—yet they will know that there has been a prophet among them.
Kaya akamva kaya sakamvera, pakuti iwo ndi anthu opanduka, komabe adzadziwa kuti mneneri ali pakati pawo.
6 You, son of man, don’t be afraid of them, neither be afraid of their words, though briers and thorns are with you, and you dwell among scorpions. Don’t be afraid of their words, nor be dismayed at their looks, though they are a rebellious house.
Tsono iwe mwana wa munthu, usachite nawo mantha kapena kuopa zimene azikanena. Usachite mantha, ngakhale minga ndi mkandankhuku zikuzinge ndipo ukukhala pakati pa zinkhanira. Usachite mantha ndi zimene akunena kapena kuopsedwa ndi nkhope zawo, popeza anthuwa ndi awupandu.
7 You shall speak my words to them, whether they will hear or whether they will refuse; for they are most rebellious.
Ukawawuze ndithu mawu anga, kaya akamva kaya sakamva. Paja anthuwa ndi awupandu.
8 But you, son of man, hear what I tell you. Don’t be rebellious like that rebellious house. Open your mouth, and eat that which I give you.”
Koma iwe mwana wa munthu, mvetsera zimene ndikukuwuza. Usakhale wowukira ngati iwowo. Tsono yasama pakamwa pako kuti udye chimene ndikukupatsa.”
9 When I looked, behold, a hand was stretched out to me; and behold, a scroll of a book was in it.
Nditayangʼana ndinangoona dzanja litaloza ine, litagwira mpukutu wolembedwa.
10 He spread it before me. It was written within and without; and lamentations, mourning, and woe were written in it.
Anawufunyulura pamaso panga. Mpukutu wonse unali wolembedwa kuseri nʼkuseri. Ndipo mawu amene analembedwa mʼmenemo anali a madandawulo, maliro ndi matemberero.
