< Ezekiel 9 >

1 And He crieth in mine ears — a loud voice — saying, 'Drawn near have inspectors of the city, and each his destroying weapon in his hand.'
Eka ne awinjo koluongo gi dwol maduongʼ niya, “Kel jorito mag dala maduongʼ kae, ka moro ka moro nigi gir kedo lweny e lwete.”
2 And lo, six men are coming from the way of the upper gate, that is facing the north, and each his slaughter-weapon in his hand, and one man in their midst is clothed with linen, and a scribe's inkhorn at his loins, and they come in, and stand near the brazen altar.
Eka ne aneno ji auchiel kabiro koa yo rangach mamalo, ka moro ka moro kuomgi otingʼo gir lweny mager e lwete. Ne nitie ngʼato kodgi morwako law mayom mane otingʼo gir ndiko e bathe. Negidonjo mi gichungʼ e bath kendo mar misango mar nyinyo.
3 And the honour of the God of Israel hath gone up from off the cherub, on which it hath been, unto the threshold of the house.
To duongʼ mar Nyasaye mar Israel nodar oa ewi kerubi kama ne osebetie, mi ohuyo modhi obet ewi kama idonjogo ei hekalu. Bangʼe Jehova Nyasaye noluongo ngʼat mane orwako law mayom-cha, mane otingʼo gir ndiko e bathe,
4 And He calleth unto the man who is clothed with linen, who hath the scribe's inkhorn at his loins, and Jehovah saith unto him, 'Pass on into the midst of the city, into the midst of Jerusalem, and thou hast made a mark on the foreheads of the men who are sighing and who are groaning for all the abominations that are done in its midst.'
mi owachone niya, “Dhi e dala Jerusalem duto mondo iket kido e lela wangʼ joma okuyo kendo ma chunygi chandore kuom gik mamono mitimonigi.”
5 And to the others he said in mine ears, 'Pass on into the city after him, and smite; your eye doth not pity, nor do ye spare;
Nowachone joma moko ka awinjo niya, “Luweuru kamoro amora modhiye e dalano kendo uneg ngʼato angʼata ma ok ukechogi kata ngʼwononegi.
6 aged, young man, and virgin, and infant, and women, ye do slay — to destruction; and against any man on whom [is] the mark ye do not go nigh, and from My sanctuary ye begin.'
Neguru jomadongo gi jomatindo, jotich ma nyiri gi ma yawuowi, mon kod nyithindo, to kik umul ngʼato angʼata man-gi kido e lela wangʼe. Chakuru timo kamano e kara maler mar lemo.” Kuom mano negichako gi jodongo mane ni e nyim hekalu.
7 And they begin among the aged men who [are] before the house, and He saith unto them, 'Defile the house, and fill the courts with the wounded, go forth.' And they have gone forth and have smitten in the city.
Eka nowachonegi niya, “Dhiuru mondo udwany hekalu kendo pongʼuru laru mage gi ringre joma onegi. Dhiuru!” Omiyo ne giwuok mi gidhi kendo negichako nego ji e dalano duto.
8 And it cometh to pass, as they are smiting, and I — I am left — that I fall on my face, and cry, and say, 'Ah, Lord Jehovah, art Thou destroying all the remnant of Israel, in Thy pouring out Thy wrath on Jerusalem?'
E kinde mane gineko, kane adongʼ kenda, ne apodho piny auma, mi aywagora niya, “Yaye Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto, bende dineg mitiek pep oganda jo-Israel manok modongʼ e thuolo miolee mirimbi kuom Jerusalem?”
9 And He saith unto me, 'The iniquity of the house of Israel and Judah [is] very very great, and the land is full of blood, and the city hath been full of perverseness, for they have said: Jehovah hath forsaken the land, and Jehovah is not seeing.
Nodwoka niya, “Richo mar dhood Israel gi dhood Juda duongʼ mokalo apima; piny opongʼ gi remo michwero kendo dala maduongʼ opongʼ gi timbe mobam. Giwacho ni, ‘Jehova Nyasaye osejwangʼo piny kendo; Jehova Nyasaye ok ne gik matimore.’
10 And I also, Mine eye doth not pity, nor do I spare; their way on their own head I have put.'
Omiyo ok abi kechogi kata ngʼwononigi ma ok akumogi, to abiro kumogi kuom gik magisetimo.”
11 And lo, the man clothed with linen, at whose loins [is] the inkhorn, is bringing back word, saying, 'I have done as Thou hast commanded me.'
Bangʼe ngʼat mane orwako law mayom-cha mane otingʼo gir ndiko e bathe noduogo wach kawacho niya, “Asetimo kaka ne ichiko.”
