< Ezekieli 5 >

1 “Na rĩrĩ, mũrũ wa mũndũ, oya rũhiũ rwa njora rũũgĩ, ũrũhũthĩre ta rwenji rwa mwenjani, wĩyenje naruo mũtwe na nderu. Ningĩ ũcooke woe ratiri ya gũthima, ũgayanie njuĩrĩ ĩyo.
“As for you, son of man, take a sharp sword, use it as a barber’s razor, and shave your head and beard. Then take a set of scales and divide the hair.
2 Rĩrĩa matukũ marĩa mũrigiicĩirio magaathira-rĩ, ũgaacinĩra gĩcunjĩ gĩa ithatũ kĩa njuĩrĩ ĩyo na mwaki kũu thĩinĩ wa itũũra inene. Oya gĩcunjĩ gĩa ithatũ kĩayo ũthiũrũrũke itũũra rĩu inene ũkĩmĩgũthagũthaga na rũhiũ rwa njora. Nakĩo gĩcunjĩ gĩa ithatũ kĩayo ũkĩhurunje gĩtwarwo nĩ rũhuho. Nĩgũkorwo nĩngamaingatithia na rũhiũ rwa njora ndĩrũcomorete.
When the days of the siege have ended, you are to burn up a third of the hair inside the city; you are also to take a third and slash it with the sword all around the city; and you are to scatter a third to the wind. For I will unleash a sword behind them.
3 No rĩrĩ, oya gakundi ka njuĩrĩ ũthinĩkĩre ruuno-inĩ rwa nguo yaku.
But you are to take a few strands of hair and secure them in the folds of your garment.
4 Cooka woe gakundi kayo ũgaikie mwaki-inĩ ũgacine. Mwaki nĩũgatheerema kuuma hau ũiyũre nyũmba yothe ya Isiraeli.
Again, take a few of these, throw them into the fire, and burn them. From there a fire will spread to the whole house of Israel.
5 “Ũũ nĩguo Mwathani Jehova ekuuga: Rĩĩrĩ nĩrĩo itũũra inene rĩa Jerusalemu, rĩrĩa haandĩte gatagatĩ ka ndũrĩrĩ rĩthiũrũkĩirio nĩ mabũrũri.
This is what the Lord GOD says: ‘This is Jerusalem, which I have set in the center of the nations, with countries all around her.
6 No rĩrĩ, nĩ ũndũ wa waganu warĩo, nĩrĩremeire mawatho makwa o na watho wakwa wa kũrũmĩrĩrwo gũkĩra ndũrĩrĩ na mabũrũri macio marĩthiũrũrũkĩirie. Nĩrĩregete mawatho makwa na rĩtirũmĩrĩire watho wakwa wa kũrũmĩrĩrwo.
But she has rebelled against My ordinances more wickedly than the nations, and against My statutes worse than the countries around her. For her people have rejected My ordinances and have not walked in My statutes.’
7 “Nĩ ũndũ ũcio ũũ nĩguo Mwathani Jehova ekuuga: Wee ũkoretwo ũrĩ mũremi gũkĩra ndũrĩrĩ ici igũthiũrũrũkĩirie, ũkaaga kũrũmĩrĩra watho wakwa wa kũrũmĩrĩrwo kana kũhingia mawatho makwa. Wee o na ndwĩkĩte maũndũ maringaine na irĩra cia ndũrĩrĩ icio igũthiũrũrũkĩirie.
Therefore this is what the Lord GOD says: ‘You have been more insubordinate than the nations around you; you have not walked in My statutes or kept My ordinances, nor have you even conformed to the ordinances of the nations around you.’
8 “Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, ũũ nĩguo Mwathani Jehova ekuuga: Niĩ mwene nĩngũgũũkĩrĩra, wee Jerusalemu, ngũherithie ũkĩonagwo nĩ ndũrĩrĩ icio.
Therefore this is what the Lord GOD says: ‘Behold, I Myself am against you, Jerusalem, and I will execute judgments among you in the sight of the nations.
9 Tondũ wa mĩhianano ĩyo yaku yothe ĩrĩ magigi, niĩ nĩngũgwĩka ũrĩa itarĩ ndeeka mbere ĩyo na itageeka rĩngĩ.
Because of all your abominations, I will do to you what I have never done before and will never do again.
10 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, gatagatĩ-inĩ gaku maithe nĩmakaarĩa ciana ciao, o nacio ciana irĩe maithe ma cio. Nĩngakũherithia, na hurunje matigari maku mothe matwarwo nĩ rũhuho.
As a result, fathers among you will eat their sons, and sons will eat their fathers. I will execute judgments against you and scatter all your remnant to every wind.’
11 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, ti-itherũ ta ũrĩa niĩ ndũũraga muoyo, Mwathani Jehova ekuuga atĩrĩ, tondũ nĩũthaahĩtie gĩikaro gĩakwa kĩamũre na ũndũ wa mĩhianano yaku yothe mĩbuthu na ciĩko thũũrĩku-rĩ, nĩngakwehereria wendo wakwa, na ndigacooka gũkũrora na tha, kana ngũcaaĩre.
Therefore as surely as I live, declares the Lord GOD, because you have defiled My sanctuary with all your detestable idols and abominations, I Myself will withdraw My favor; I will not look upon you with pity, nor will I spare you.
12 Gĩcunjĩ gĩa ithatũ kĩa andũ aku makooragwo nĩ mũthiro, kana maniinwo nĩ ngʼaragu o kũu thĩinĩ waku; gĩcunjĩ gĩa ithatũ gĩkooragwo na rũhiũ rwa njora nja ya thingo ciaku; nakĩo gĩcunjĩ gĩa ithatũ ngaakĩhurunja gĩtwarwo nĩ rũhuho, na gĩtengʼerio na rũhiũ rwa njora rũcomoretwo.
A third of your people will die by plague or be consumed by famine within you, a third will fall by the sword outside your walls, and a third I will scatter to every wind and unleash a sword behind them.
13 “Hĩndĩ ĩyo marakara makwa nĩmagathira, na mangʼũrĩ makwa harĩo manyiihe, na niĩ nĩngarĩhĩrio. Ndaarĩkia kũmaitũrũrĩra mangʼũrĩ makwa, nĩmakamenya atĩ niĩ Jehova, nĩ niĩ ndoiga ũguo ndĩĩrutanĩirie.
And when My anger is spent and I have vented My wrath against them, I will be appeased. And when I have spent My wrath on them, they will know that I, the LORD, in My zeal have spoken.
14 “Nĩngagũtua mwanangĩko, na ngũtue kĩndũ gĩa kũnyararwo gatagatĩ-inĩ ka ndũrĩrĩ iria igũthiũrũrũkĩirie, o na maitho-inĩ ma ahĩtũki.
I will make you a ruin and a disgrace among the nations around you, in the sight of all who pass by.
15 Wee ũgaatuĩka wa kũmenwo, na wa kũnyararwo, na kĩndũ gĩa gũkaanania nakĩo, na kĩndũ kĩrĩ magigi harĩ ndũrĩrĩ icio igũthiũrũrũkĩirie, hĩndĩ ĩrĩa ngaakũherithia ndĩ na marakara na mangʼũrĩ, na ngũkaanie na mathũgũta manene. Niĩ Jehova nĩ niĩ ndoiga ũguo.
So you will be a reproach and a taunt, a warning and a horror to the nations around you, when I execute judgments against you in anger, wrath, and raging fury. I, the LORD, have spoken.
16 Rĩrĩa ngaakũratha na mĩguĩ yakwa ya ũragani na ya ngʼaragu, ngaakũratha ngũniine. Nĩngakũrehere ngʼaragu makĩria, na hinge njĩra ĩrĩa irio ciaku ciũkagĩra.
When I shower you with the deadly arrows of famine and destruction that I will send to destroy you, I will intensify the famine against you and cut off your supply of food.
17 Nĩngakũrehere ngʼaragu na nyamũ cia gĩthaka igũtharĩkĩre, nacio nĩigakũniinĩra ciana. Mũthiro na ũiti wa thakame nĩigakũhaata, na nĩngarehithia rũhiũ rwa njora rũgũũkĩrĩre. Niĩ Jehova nĩ niĩ ndoiga ũguo.”
I will send famine and wild beasts against you, and they will leave you childless. Plague and bloodshed will sweep through you, and I will bring a sword against you. I, the LORD, have spoken.”
