< Ezekieli 9 >
1 Ningĩ ngĩigua agĩĩtana na mũgambo mũnene, akiuga atĩrĩ, “Rehei arangĩri a itũũra inene haha, o mũndũ arĩ na itharaita rĩa mbaara guoko-inĩ.”
And he cried in mine ears with a loud voice, saying, The judgment of the city has drawn near; and each had the weapons of destruction in his hand.
2 Na niĩ ngĩona andũ atandatũ magĩũka moimĩte mwena wa kĩhingo kĩa rũgongo, kĩrĩa kĩrorete mwena wa gathigathini, o mũndũ arĩ na kĩndũ gĩa kũũragana guoko-inĩ. Makĩrehane na mũndũ ũngĩ ũmwe wehumbĩte nguo cia gatani na eyohete indo cia kwandĩka njohero. Nao magĩtoonya makĩrũgama mwena-inĩ wa kĩgongona kĩrĩa gĩa gĩcango.
And, behold, six men came from the way of the high gate that looks toward the north, and each one's axe was in his hand; and there was one man in the midst of them clothed with a long robe down to the feet, and a sapphire girdle was on his loins: and they came in and stood near the brazen altar.
3 Na rĩrĩ, riiri wa Ngai wa Isiraeli ũkĩambata uumĩte igũrũ rĩa makerubi, harĩa warĩ mbere, ũgĩthiĩ hingĩro-inĩ ya hekarũ. Ningĩ Jehova agĩĩta mũndũ ũcio wehumbĩte nguo cia gatani, o ũcio weyohete indo cia kwandĩka njohero,
And the glory of the God of Israel, that was upon them, went up from the cherubs to the porch of the house. And he called the man that was clothed with the long robe, who had the girdle on his loins;
4 akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Thiĩ ũtuĩkanie itũũra inene rĩa Jerusalemu, na wĩkĩre rũũri ithiithi cia arĩa marĩ na kĩeha, na magacakaya nĩ ũndũ wa maũndũ mothe marĩ magigi marĩa mekagwo kũu thĩinĩ warĩo.”
And said to him, Go through the midst of Jerusalem, and set a mark on the foreheads of the men that groan and that grieve for all the iniquities that are done in the midst of them.
5 O thikĩrĩirie ũguo, akĩĩra acio angĩ atĩrĩ, “Mũrũmĩrĩrei, mũtuĩkanĩrie itũũra rĩu inene mũũragane mũtekũiguanĩra tha kana gũcaayanĩra.
And he said to the first in my hearing, Go after him into the city, and strike: and let not your eyes spare, and have no mercy.
6 Ũragai athuuri, na aanake na airĩtu, na andũ-a-nja na ciana, no mũtikahutie mũndũ o na ũrĩkũ mwĩkĩre rũũri rũu. Ambĩrĩriai o haha hakwa haamũre.” Nĩ ũndũ ũcio makĩambĩrĩria na athuuri arĩa maarĩ hau mbere ya hekarũ.
Slay utterly old man and youth, and virgin, and infants, and women: but go you not near any on whom is the mark: begin at my sanctuary. So they began with the elder men who were within in the house.
7 Ningĩ akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Thaahiai hekarũ ĩno na mũiyũrie nja ciayo andũ arĩa moragĩtwo. Thiĩi!” Nĩ ũndũ ũcio makiumagara, makĩambĩrĩria kũũragana kũu itũũra-inĩ inene.
And he said to them, Defile the house, and go out and fill the ways with dead bodies, and strike.
8 Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa mooraganaga niĩ ngĩtigwo ndĩ nyiki, ngĩĩgũithia, ngĩturumithia ũthiũ thĩ, ngĩrĩra, ngĩũria atĩrĩ, “Hĩ, Mwathani Jehova! Anga nĩũkũniina matigari mothe ma Isiraeli hĩndĩ ĩno ya gũitĩrĩria Jerusalemu mangʼũrĩ maku?”
And it came to pass as they were striking, that I fell upon my face, and cried out, and said, Alas, O Lord! will you destroy the remnant of Israel, in pouring out your wrath upon Jerusalem?
9 Nake akĩnjookeria atĩrĩ, “Mehia ma nyũmba ya Isiraeli na ya Juda nĩ maingĩ magakĩra; bũrũri ũiyũrĩte ũiti wa thakame, narĩo itũũra inene rĩiyũrĩte ũhotomia wa kĩhooto. Moigaga atĩrĩ, ‘Jehova nĩatiganĩirie bũrũri ũyũ; Jehova ndarona.’
Then said he to me, The iniquity of the house of Israel and Juda is become very exceedingly great: for the land is filled with many nations, and the city is filled with iniquity and uncleanness: because they have said, The Lord has forsaken the earth, The Lord looks not upon [it].
10 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio-rĩ, Niĩ ndigacooka kũmaiguĩra tha kana kũmacaaĩra, no nĩngamacookereria ũrĩa mekĩte.”
Therefore mine eye shall not spare, neither will I have any mercy: I have recompensed their ways upon their heads.
11 Ningĩ mũndũ ũcio wehumbĩte nguo cia gatani, na akeoha indo cia wandĩki njohero, agĩcookia ndũmĩrĩri, akiuga atĩrĩ, “Nĩnjĩkĩte o ta ũrĩa wathanire.”
And, behold, the man clothed with the long robe, and girded with the girdle about his loins, answered and said, I have done as you did command me.
