Ezekiel 7
1 And there is a word of Jehovah unto me, saying, 'And thou, son of man, Thus said the Lord Jehovah to the ground of Israel:
Yehowa ƒe gbe va nam be,
2 An end, come hath the end on the four corners of the land.
“Ame vi, aleae Aƒetɔ Yehowa gblɔ na Israel ƒe anyigba: “‘Nuwuwu la! Nuwuwu la ɖo eɖo xexea me ƒe dzogoe eneawo dzi!
3 Now [is] the end unto thee, And I have sent Mine anger upon thee, And judged thee according to thy ways, And set against thee all thine abominations.
Nuwuwu la va mia dzi azɔ, eye mana nye dɔmedzoe nabi ɖe mia ŋu. Madrɔ̃ ʋɔnu mi ɖe miaƒe nɔnɔme ŋu, eye mahe to na mi katã ɖe miaƒe ŋunyɔnuwɔnawo ta.
4 And no pity on thee hath Mine eye, nor do I spare, For thy ways against thee I do set, And thine abominations are in thy midst, And ye have known that I [am] Jehovah.
Nyemakpɔ nublanui na mi loo alo ana miakpɔ ɖeɖe o. Mahe to na mi ɖe miaƒe nɔnɔme kple ŋukpenanu siwo le edzi yim le mia dome la ta kokoko. “‘Ekema mianya be, nyee nye Yehowa.’
5 Thus said the Lord Jehovah: Evil, a single evil, lo, it hath come.
“Aƒetɔ Yehowa gblɔ be, “‘Dzɔgbevɔ̃e! Dzɔgbevɔ̃e si tɔgbi ƒe nya womese kpɔ o la! Kpɔ ɖa, eva ɖo.
6 An end hath come, come hath the end, It hath waked for thee, lo, it hath come.
Nuwuwu la va ɖo. Nuwuwu la va ɖo. Efɔ eɖokui ɖe ŋutiwò. Kpɔ ɖa, eva ɖo!
7 Come hath the morning unto thee, O inhabitant of the land! Come hath the time, near [is] a day of trouble, And not the shouting of mountains.
Tsɔtsrɔ̃ va mia dzi mi anyigbadzinɔlawo dzi. Ɣeyiɣi la de, ŋkeke la tu aƒe. Nuxaxa le toawo dzi, dzidzɔ aɖeke meli o.
8 Now, shortly I pour out My fury on thee, And have completed Mine anger against thee, And judged thee according to thy ways, And set against thee all thine abominations.
Esusɔ vie matrɔ nye dziku akɔ ɖe mia dzi, eye magblẽ nye dɔmedzoe ɖe mia ŋu. Madrɔ̃ ʋɔnu mi ɖe miaƒe nɔnɔme ŋu, eye mahe to na mi ɖe miaƒe ŋukpenanuwo katã ta.
9 And not pity doth Mine eye, nor do I spare, According to thy ways unto thee I give, And thine abominations are in thy midst, And ye have known that I [am] Jehovah the smiter.
Nyemakpɔ nublanui na mi alo aɖe mi o. Mahe to na mi ɖe miaƒe nɔnɔme ŋu kple ɖe miaƒe ŋukpenanu siwo le edzi yim le mia dome la ta. “‘Ekema mianya be nye, Yehowae tu nu kpli mi.
10 Lo, the day, lo, it hath come, Gone forth hath the morning, Blossomed hath the rod, flourished the pride.
“‘Kpɔ ɖa, ŋkeke la! Kpɔ ɖa, eva ɖo! Dzɔgbevɔ̃e do, ameƒoti do lotoo, eye dada ƒo se.
11 The violence hath risen to a rod of wickedness, There is none of them, nor of their multitude, Nor of their noise, nor is there wailing for them.
Ŋutasesẽ tsi zu ameƒoti hena tohehe na ame vɔ̃ɖiwo. Womagblẽ ame aɖeke ɖi o; womagblẽ ameha ma me nɔla aɖeke, kesinɔnu aɖeke alo nu xɔasi aɖeke ɖi o.
12 Come hath the time, arrived hath the day, The buyer doth not rejoice, And the seller doth not become a mourner, For wrath [is] unto all its multitude.
Ɣeyiɣi de, ŋkeke la va ɖo. Nudzrala megatso aseye, eye nuƒlela megafa konyi o, elabena dɔmedzoe dze ɖe ameha la katã dzi.
13 For the seller to the sold thing turneth not, And yet among the living [is] their life, For the vision [is] unto all its multitude, It doth not turn back, And none by his iniquity doth strengthen his life.
Anyigbadzrala magbugbɔ eƒe anyigba si wòdzra la axɔ zi ale si wo ame eve la le agbe o, elabena womatrɔ ŋutega si wokpɔ tso ameha blibo la ŋu o. Le woƒe nu vɔ̃wo ta la, wo dometɔ ɖeka pɛ gɔ̃ hã matsi agbe o.
14 They have blown with a trumpet to prepare the whole, And none is going to battle, For My wrath [is] unto all its multitude.
“‘Togbɔ be woaku kpẽ, eye woawɔ nu sia nu wòasɔ gbe gɔ̃ hã la, ame aɖeke mayi aʋa o, elabena nye dɔmedzoe bi ɖe ameha la kã.
15 The sword [is] without, And the pestilence and the famine within, He who is in a field by sword dieth, And he who is in a city, Famine and pestilence devour him.
Yi le gota, eye dɔvɔ̃ kple dɔwuame le aƒe me. Yi awu ame siwo le gbedzi, eye ame siwo le du me la, dɔwuame kple dɔvɔ̃ atsrɔ̃ wo.
16 And escaped away have their fugitives, And they have been on the mountains As doves of the valleys, All of them make a noising — each for his iniquity.
Ame siwo katã atsi agbe, eye woasi la, woayi toawo dzi, anɔ konyi fam abe ahɔnɛ siwo le baliwo me ene, ɖe sia ɖe ɖe eƒe nu vɔ̃wo ta.
17 All the hands are feeble, and all knees go — waters.
Alɔ ɖe sia ɖe ado agblɔ, eye klo ɖe sia ɖe agbɔdzɔ abe tsi ene.
18 And they have girded on sackcloth, And covered them hath trembling, And unto all faces [is] shame, And on all their heads — baldness.
Woatsyɔ konyifavɔ, eye woado ŋɔdzi abe awu ene, ŋukpe anɔ mo na wo, eye woalũ ta na wo.
19 Their silver into out-places they cast, And their gold impurity becometh. Their silver and their gold is not able to deliver them, In a day of the wrath of Jehovah, Their soul they do not satisfy, And their bowels they do not fill, For the stumbling-block of their iniquity it hath been.
“‘Woatsɔ woƒe klosalo aƒu gbe ɖe ablɔwo dzi, eye woƒe sika azu nu makɔmakɔ. Woƒe klosalo kple sika mate ŋu aɖe wo le Yehowa ƒe dɔmedzoedogbe la o. Womatsɔe atsi woƒe dɔwuame nu o, eye womatsɔe aɖi ƒoe na wo o, elabena ena wodze nu vɔ̃ me.
20 As to the beauty of his ornament, For excellency He set it, And the images of their abominations, Their detestable things — they made in it, Therefore I have given it to them for impurity,
Wodana ɖe woƒe lekewɔnu dzeaniwo dzi, eye wotsɔ wo wɔ woƒe legba nyɔŋuwo kple aklamakpakpɛ vlowo. Eya ta matrɔ nu siawo woazu nu makɔmakɔwo na wo.
21 And I have given it into the hand of the strangers for a prey, And to the wicked of the land for a spoil, And they have polluted it.
Mana wo katã nazu afunyinu na amedzrowo kple nuhaha na ŋutaselã siwo le anyigba dzi, eye woagblẽ kɔ ɖo na wo.
22 And I have turned My face from them, And they have polluted My hidden place, Yea, come into it have destroyers, and polluted it.
Matrɔ mo ɖe adzɔge tso wo gbɔ, eye woagblẽ kɔ ɖo na nye teƒe vevi la. Adzodalawo age ɖe eme, eye woagblẽ kɔ ɖo nɛ.
23 Make the chain; for the land Hath been full of bloody judgments, And the city hath been full of violence.
“‘Miwɔ kɔsɔkɔsɔwo da ɖi, elabena ʋukɔkɔɖi bɔ ɖe anyigba la dzi, eye ŋutasesẽ yɔ dua me.
24 And I have brought in the wicked of the nations, And they have possessed their houses, And I have caused to cease the excellency of the strong, And polluted have been those sanctifying them.
Makplɔ dukɔ vɔ̃ɖitɔwo vɛ be woava xɔ woƒe aƒewo, matsi ŋusẽtɔwo ƒe dada nu, eye woagblẽ kɔ ɖo na woƒe Kɔkɔeƒewo.
25 Destruction hath come, And they have sought peace, and there is none.
Ne ŋɔdzi do la, woadi ŋutifafa, gake manɔ anyi o.
26 Mischief on mischief cometh, and report is on report, And they have sought a vision from a prophet, And law doth perish from the priest, And counsel from the elders,
Dzɔgbevɔ̃e akplɔ dzɔgbevɔ̃e ɖo, eye ŋɔdzinya adze ŋɔdzinya yome. Ana woadze agbagba be yewoaxɔ ɖeɖefia tso nyagblɔɖilawo gbɔ, nunɔlawo ƒe sewo fiafia kple ametsitsiwo ƒe nufiame maganɔ anyi o.
27 The king doth become a mourner, And a prince putteth on desolation, And the hands of the people of the land are troubled, From their own way I deal with them, And with their own judgments I judge them, And they have known that I [am] Jehovah!'
Fia la afa konyi, dzi aɖe le fiavi la ƒo, eye anyigba la dzi tɔwo ƒe asiwo adzo nyanyanya. Matu nu kpli wo le woƒe nɔnɔme nu, eye madrɔ̃ ʋɔnu wo ɖe woawo ŋutɔ ƒe gɔmesese nu. “‘Ekema woanya be nyee nye Yehowa.’”
