Hezekiel 22
1 Yehowa ƒe nya va nam be:
And the word of the Lord was maad to me,
2 “Ame vi, àdrɔ̃ ʋɔnuia? Àdrɔ ʋɔnu ʋukɔkɔɖi ƒe dua? Ekema tsɔ eƒe ŋukpenanuwɔnawo ɖo eƒe ŋkume,
and he seide, And thou, sone of man, whether thou demest not the citee of bloodis?
3 eye nàgblɔ be, ‘Ale Aƒetɔ Yehowa gblɔe nye esi: Du si he tsɔtsrɔ̃ va eɖokui dzi to ʋukɔkɔɖi le eƒe amewo dome, eye wòdo gu eɖokui to aklamakpakpɛwo wɔwɔ na eɖokui me.
And thou schalt schewe to it alle hise abhomynaciouns, and thou schalt seie, The Lord God seith these thingis, This is a citee schedinge out blood in the myddis of it silf, that the tyme therof come; and which made idols ayens it silf, that it shulde be defoulid.
4 Èɖi fɔ le ʋu si nèkɔ ɖi ta, eye nègblẽ kɔ ɖo na ɖokuiwò le aklamakpakpɛ siwo nèwɔ la ta. Èhe nuwuwu na wò ŋkekewo vɛ, eye wò ƒewo ƒe nuwuwu va ɖo. Eya ta mawɔ wò nàzu fewuɖunu na dukɔwo kple alɔmeɖenu na anyigbawo katã.
In thi blood which is shed out of thee, thou trespassidist, and thou art defoulid in thin idols whiche thou madist; and thou madist thi daies to neiye, and thou brouytist the time of thi yeeris. Therfor Y yaf thee schenschipe to hethene men, and scornyng to alle londis that ben niy thee,
5 Kpuiƒetɔwo kple didiƒetɔwo siaa aɖu fewu le ŋuwò. O! Du maxɔŋkɔ, si yɔ fũu kple ʋunyaʋunya.
and that ben fer fro thee; thou foul citee, noble, greet in perisching, thei schulen haue victorie of thee.
6 “‘Kpɔ ale si Israel dziɖula ɖe sia ɖe si le mewò la wɔa eƒe ŋusẽ ŋu dɔ be yeakɔ ʋu ɖi la ɖa.
Lo! princes of Israel, alle in her arm, weren in thee, to schede out blood.
7 Le mewò la, wodoa vlo fofo kple dada, le mewò la, wotea amedzrowo ɖe to, eye wosẽa ŋuta le tsyɔ̃eviwo kple ahosiwo ŋuti.
Thei punyschiden with wrongis fadir and modir in thee, thei calengiden falsli a comelyng in the myddis of thee, thei maden sori a fadirles child and a widewe at thee.
8 Miedo vlo nye nu kɔkɔewo, eye miegblẽ kɔ ɖo na nye Dzudzɔgbewo.
Ye dispisiden my seyntuaries, and ye defouliden my sabatis.
9 Le mewò la, ameŋugblẽlawo li, siwo dina vevie be yewoakɔ ʋu ɖi. Le mewò la, amewo li, siwo ɖua nu le nuxeƒewo, le towo dzi, eye wowɔa ŋukpenanuwo.
Men bacbiteris weren in thee, to schede out blood, and eten on hillis in thee; thei wrouyten greet trespas in the myddis of thee.
10 Le mewò la, ame siwo doa vlo wo fofowo ƒe aba kple ame siwo dɔna kple nyɔnu siwo kpɔ dzinu, eye wo ŋuti mekɔ o la le.
Thei vnhiliden the schamefulere thingis of the fadir in thee, thei maden low in thee the vnclenesse of a womman in vnclene blood.
11 Le mewò la, ŋutsu aɖe wɔ ŋukpenanu kple nɔvia ŋutsu aɖe srɔ̃, ŋutsu bubu dɔ eya ŋutɔ via ŋutsu srɔ̃ gbɔ, eye bubu dɔ eya ŋutɔ nɔvia nyɔnu gbɔ, ame si nye eya ŋutɔ fofovia nyɔnu.
And ech man wrouyte abhomynacioun ayens the wijf of his neiybore, and the fadir of the hosebonde defoulide his sones wijf vnleuefuli; a brother oppresside in thee his sister, the douytir of his fadir.
12 Le mewò la, amewo xɔa zãnu be yewoakɔ ʋu ɖi. Woxɔa awɔbanu kple deme kɔkɔwo, eye wokpɔa viɖe madzemadze to wo nɔviwo baba me. Eye mieŋlɔm be. Aƒetɔ Yehowae gblɔe.
Thei token yiftis at thee, to schede out blood; thou tokist vsure and ouerabundaunce, and thou calengidist greedili thi neiyboris, and thou hast foryete me, seith the Lord God.
13 “‘Maƒo asikpe kplokplokpo kokoko le viɖe madzɔmadzɔ si miekpɔ kple ʋu si miekɔ ɖi le mia dome la ta.
Lo! Y haue smyte togidere myn hondis on thin aueryce, which thou didist, and on the blood which is sched out in the myddis of thee.
14 Ɖe dzi anɔ mia ƒo alo miaƒe asiwo asẽ ŋu le ŋkeke si matu nu kple mi la dzia? Nye, Yehowae ƒo nu, eye mawɔe hã.
Whether thin herte schal susteyne, ether thin hondis schulen haue power in the daies whiche Y schal make to thee? For Y the Lord spak, and Y schal do.
15 Makaka mi ɖe dukɔwo dome kple anyigbawo dzi, eye matsi miaƒe makɔmakɔnyenye nu.
And Y schal scatere thee in to naciouns, and Y schal wyndewe thee in to londis; and Y schal make thin vnclennesse to faile fro thee,
16 Ne wodo gu mi le dukɔwo ƒe ŋkume la, mianya be nyee nye Yehowa.’”
and Y schal welde thee in the siyt of hethene men; and thou schalt wite, that Y am the Lord.
17 Tete Aƒetɔ Yehowa ƒe nya va nam.
And the word of the Lord was maad to me, and he seide,
18 “Ame vi, Israel ƒe aƒe blibo la zu aŋɔka nam; wo katã wonye akɔbli, gaɣi, gayibɔ kple tsumi si susɔ ɖe kpodzo me. Wole ko abe klosaloŋuka ene.
Thou, sone of man, the hous of Israel is turned to me in to dros, ether filthe of irun; alle these ben bras, and tyn, and irun, and leed, in the myddis of furneis, thei ben maad the dros of siluer.
19 Eya ta ale Aƒetɔ Yehowa gblɔe nye esi: ‘Esi mi katã miezu aŋɔka ta la, maƒo ƒu mi ayi Yerusalem.
Therfor the Lord God seith these thingis, For that alle ye ben turned in to dros, lo! Y schal gadere you togidere in the myddis of Jerusalem,
20 Abe ale si amewo ƒoa ƒu klosalo, akɔbli, gayibɔ, tsumi kple gaɣi dea kpodzo me be woalolõ wo ene la, nenema maƒo mia nu ƒu le nye dɔmedzoe kple dziku me, eye mada mi ɖe du gã la me, alolõ mi.
bi gadering togidere of siluer, and of latoun, and of irun, and of tyn, and of leed, in the myddis of furneis; and Y schal kindle ther ynne a fier, to welle togidere; so Y schal gadere you togidere in my strong veniaunce, and in my wraththe, and Y schal reste. And Y schal welle you togidere,
21 Maƒo ƒu mia nu, eye matrɔ nye dɔmedzoe ƒe dzo akɔ ɖe mia dzi, eye woalolõ mi.
and Y schal gadere you togidere, and Y schal sette you a fier in the fier of my strong veniaunce, and ye schulen be wellid togidere in the myddis therof.
22 Abe ale si wololõa klosalo le kpodzo me ene la, nenema woalolõ mi le emee, eye mianya be nye, Yehowae trɔ nye dɔmedzoe kɔ ɖe mia dzi.’”
As siluer is wellid togidere in the myddis of a furneis, so ye schulen be in the myddis therof; and ye schulen wite, that Y am the Lord, whanne Y haue sched out myn indignacioun on you.
23 Yehowa ƒe nya gava nam be,
And the word of the Lord was maad to me,
24 “Ame vi, gblɔ na anyigba la be, ‘Ènye anyigba aɖe si dzi tsi alo agbafie medza ɖo le dzikuŋkeke la dzi o.’
and he seide, Sone of man, seie thou to it, Thou art a lond vncleene, and not bireyned in the dai of strong veniaunce.
25 Eƒe fiaviŋutsuwo bla nu le eme abe dzata si le gbe ɖem hele nu si wòlé la vuvum ene; wovuvua ame, tsɔa kesinɔnuwo kple nu xɔasiwo, eye wonana nyɔnu geɖewo zua ahosiwo le eme.
Sweringe togidere, ether conspiringe of profetis is in the myddis therof; as a lioun roringe and takinge prei, thei deuouriden men, thei token richessis and prijs; thei multiplieden widewis therof in the myddis therof.
26 Eƒe nunɔlawo wɔa nu tovo ɖe nye se la ŋu, eye wodoa gu nye nu kɔkɔewo; womedea vovototo nye nu kɔkɔewo kple nu gbɔlowo dome o; wofiana be, vovototo aɖeke mele nu siwo dza kple nu siwo medza o la dome o. Woŋea aɖaba ƒua nye Dzudzɔgbe la ƒe ɖoɖowo dzi, ale wogblẽa kɔ ɖo nam le wo dome.
Preestis therof dispisiden my lawe, and defouliden my seyntuaries; thei hadden not difference bitwixe hooli thing and vnhooli, thei vndurstoden not bitwixe defoulid thing and cleene thing; and thei turneden awei her iyen fro my sabatis, and Y was defoulid in the myddis of hem.
27 Woƒe amegãwo le abe amegaxiwo ene le eme, eye wovuvua nu siwo wolé. Wokɔa ʋu ɖi, eye wowua amewo be woawɔ viɖe madzɔmadzɔwo.
The princes therof in the myddis therof weren as wolues rauyschinge prey, to schede out blood, and to leese men, and in suynge lucris gredili.
28 Woƒe nyagblɔɖilawo siaa akalo ɖe nu ŋu na wo to aʋatsoŋutegawo me, eye wogblɔa alakpanyawo na wo be, ‘Ale Aƒetɔ Yehowa gblɔe nye esi.’ Le esime wònye Aƒetɔ la meƒo nu o hafi.
Forsothe the profetis therof pargetiden hem with out temperure, and seyen veyn thingis, and dyuyneden leesingis to hem, and seiden, The Lord God seith these thingis, whanne the Lord spak not.
29 Anyigba la dzi nɔlawo baa ame, eye wodaa adzo; wotea ame dahewo kple hiãtɔwo ɖe anyi, wowɔa nu madzɔmadzɔwo ɖe amedzrowo ŋu, eye womedrɔ̃a nya dzɔdzɔe na wo o.
The puples of the lond calengiden fals caleng, and rauyschiden bi violence; thei turmentiden a nedi man and pore, and oppressiden a comeling bi fals caleng, with out doom.
30 “Medi ame aɖe le wo dome, ame si atu gli la, eye wòatsi tsitre ɖe nye ŋkume le gbadzaƒe le ameawo teƒe, ale be nyemagblẽ nu o, gake nyemekpɔ ame aɖeke o.
And Y souyte of hem a man, that schulde sette an hegge bitwixe, and stonde set ayens me for the lond, that Y schulde not distrie it, and Y foond not.
31 Eya ta matrɔ nye dziku akɔ ɖe wo dzi, mabi wo kple nye dɔmedzoe, eye mahe nu siwo katã wowɔ la va da ɖe woƒe ta dzi. Aƒetɔ Yehowae gblɔe.”
And Y schedde out on hem myn indignacioun, and Y wastide hem in the fier of my wraththe; Y yeldide the weie of hem on the heed of hem, seith the Lord God.
