< Ezekiel 5 >
1 And thou, sone of man, take to thee a scharp swerd, schauynge heeris; and thou schalt take it, and schalt leede it bi thin heed, and bi thi berd. And thou schalt take to thee a balaunce of weiyte, and thou schalt departe tho.
“Kisha wewe mwana wa adamu, chukua upanga mkali kama wembe wa kinyozi kwa ajili yako mwenyewe, na pitisha hayo makali juu ya kichwa chako na ndevu zako, kisha chukua mizani za kupimia uzito na uzigawanye nywele zako.
2 Thou schalt brenne the thridde part with fier in the myddis of the citee, bi the fillyng of daies of bisegyng. And thou schalt take the thridde part, and schalt kitte bi swerd in the cumpas therof. But thou schalt scatere `the tother thridde part in to the wynd; and Y schal make nakid a swerd aftir hem.
Choma theluthi ya tatu ya hiyo kwa moto katikati ya mji wakati siku za kuzingirwa zitakapokamilika, na chukua theluthi ya nywele na uipige kwa panga na kuuzunguka mji. Kisha tawanya theluthi yake kwenye upepo, na nitasogeza panga karibu ili kufukuza watu.
3 And thou schalt take therof a litil noumbre, and thou schalt bynde tho in the hiynesse of thi mentil.
Lakini chukua kiasi kidogo cha nywele na zifunge kwenye pindo za nguo yako.
4 And eft thou schalt take of hem, and thou schalt caste forth hem in to the myddis of the fier. And thou schalt brenne hem in fier; and fier schal go out of that in to al the hous of Israel.
Kisha chukua tena zile nyewele na zitupe katikati ya moto; na zichome kwenye moto; kutoka hapo utatoka nje kwenda nyumba zote za Israeli.”
5 The Lord God seith these thingis, This is Jerusalem; Y haue sette it in the myddis of hethene men, and londis in the cumpas therof.
Bwana Yahwe asema hivi, “Hii ndio Yerusalemu katikati ya mataifa, nilipomuweka, na ambapo nilipomzunguka kwa nchi zingine.
6 And it dispiside my domes, that it was more wickid than hethene men; and it dispiside my comaundementis more than londis that ben in the cumpas therof. For thei han cast awei my domes, and thei yeden not in my comaundementis.
Lakini anaudhaifu wa kukataa amri zangu zaidi kuliko mataifa yalivyo, na sheria yangu zaidi kuliko mataifa ambayo yanayomzunguka. Watu wamezikataa humuku zangu na kuacha kutembea katika sheria zangu.”
7 Therfor the Lord God seith these thingis, For ye `han passid hethene men that ben in youre cumpas, and ye yeden not in my comaundementis, and ye diden not my domes, and ye wrouyten not bi the domes of hethene men that ben in youre cumpas;
Kwa hiyo Bwana Yahwe asema hivi, “Kwa sababu mmekuwa kikwazo kuliko mataifa ambayo yanayowazunguka na kuacha kutembea kwenye amri zangu wala kutenda kulingana na amri zangu, wala hata kutenda kulingana na amri za mataifa yanayowazunguka,”
8 therfor the Lord God seith these thingis, Lo! Y to thee, and Y my silf schal make domes in the myddis of thee, bifor the iyen of hethene men; and Y schal do thingis in thee,
kwa hiyo Bwana asema hivi, “Tazama! Mimi mwenyewe nitatenda juu yenu. Nitato hukumu kati yenu ili mataifa waone.
9 whiche Y dide not, and to whiche Y schal no more make lijk thingis, for alle thin abhomynaciouns.
Nitawafanyia yale ambayo sijawahi kuyafanya na kile ambacho sintokifanya tena, kwa sababu ya matendo yenu ya kuchukiza.
10 Therfor fadris schulen ete sones in the myddis of thee, and sones schulen ete her fadris; and Y schal make domes in thee, and Y schal wyndewe alle thin remenauntis in to ech wynd.
Kwa hiyo baba watawala watoto kati yenu, na watoto watawala baba zao, kwa kuwa nitafanya hukumu juu yenu na kuwatawanya kila mahali wote ninyi mliobaki.
11 Therfor Y lyue, seith the Lord God, no but for that that thou defoulidist myn hooli thing in alle thin offenciouns, and in alle thin abhomynaciouns; and Y schal breke, and myn iye schal not spare, and Y schal not do merci.
Kwa hiyo, kama niishivyo-hivi ndivyo Bwana Yahwe asemavyo-bila shaka hii ilikuwa kwa sababu umapanajisi patakatifu pangu kwa mambo ya machukizo yako yote na kwa matendo yako yote niyachukiayo, kwamba mimi mwenyewe nitakupunguza katika hesabu; jicho langu halitakuhurumia, na sintoacha kukuharibu.
12 The thridde part of thee schal die bi pestilence, and schal be wastid bi hungur in the middis of thee; and the thridde part of thee schal falle doun bi swerd in thi cumpas; forsothe Y schal scatere thi thridde part in to ech wynd, and Y schal drawe out a swerd after hem.
Theluthi yenu mtakufa kwa tauni, na wataliwa na njaa katikati yenu. Theluthi wataanguka kwa upanga likiwazunguka. Kisha nitawatawanya theluthi katika mahali pote, na nitafuatisha upanga kuwafukuza pia.
13 And Y schal fille my stronge veniaunce, and Y schal make myn indignacioun to reste in hem, and Y schal be coumfortid. And thei schulen wite, that Y the Lord spak in my feruent loue, whanne Y schal fille al myn indignacioun in hem.
Hivi ndivyo ghadhabu yangu itavyokamilika, na nitasababisha ghadhabu yangu juu yao hata kulala. Nitajiridhisha, na watajua kwamba, mimi Yahwe, nimenena kwa ghadhabu yangu wakati nitakapo kamilisha ghadhabu yangu dhidi yao.
14 And Y schal yyue thee in to desert, in to schenschipe to hethene men that ben in thi cumpas, in the siyt of ech that passith forth.
Nitakufanya mkiwa kwa mataifa yanayokuzunguka kwenye uso wa kila mtu apitaye karibu.
15 And thou schalt be schenschipe `and blasfemye, ensaumple and wondryng, among hethene men that ben in thi cumpas, whanne Y schal make domes in thee, in strong veniaunce, and indignacioun, and in blamyngis of ire.
Hivyo Yerusalemu itakuwa jambo kwa watu wengine kushutumu na kufanya mzaha, na chukizo kwa mataifa ambayo yanayowazunguka. Nitafanya hukumu dhidi yenu kwa ghadhabu na hasira, na kwa kukemea kwa hasira-Mimi, Yahwe nimesema hivi!
16 Y the Lord haue spoke, whanne Y schal sende in to hem the worste arowis of hungur, that schulen bere deth; and whiche Y schal sende, that Y leese you. And Y schal gadere hungur on you, and Y schal al to-breke in you the sadnesse of breed.
Nitatuma mishale mikali ya njaa juu yenu ambayo itakuwa na maana ya kwamba nitawaharibu. Kwa kuwa nitaongeza njaa juu yenu na kuvunja tegemeo lenu la mkate.
17 And Y schal sende in to you hungur, and worste beestis, til to the deth; and pestilence and blood schulen passe bi thee, and Y schal bringe in swerd on thee; Y the Lord spak.
Nitaleta njaa na majanga dhidi yenu hivyo mtakuwa wagumba. Tauni na damu zitapita kati yako, na nitaleta upanga dhidi yenu-Mimi Yahwe, nimesema hivi.”
