< Ezekiyel 11 >
1 Sa’an nan Ruhu ya ɗaga ni sama ya kawo ni ƙofar gidan Ubangiji wadda take fuskantar gabas. Can a mashigi zuwa ƙofar akwai mutum ashirin da biyar, na kuma ga a cikinsu akwai Ya’azaniya ɗan Azzur da Felatiya ɗan Benahiya, shugabannin jama’a.
[Then God’s] Spirit lifted me up and took me to the gate on the east side of the temple area. There at the gate were 25 men. Among them I saw Jaazaniah the son of Azzur, and Pelatiah the son of Benaiah, who were leaders of the people.
2 Ubangiji ya ce mini, “Ɗan mutum, waɗannan su ne mutanen da suke ƙulla mugunta suna kuma ba da muguwa shawara a cikin wannan birni.
Yahweh said to me, “You human, these are the [new leaders in Jerusalem] who are planning to do evil things and who are giving wicked advice [to people] in this city.
3 Suna cewa, ‘Lokaci bai yi kusa da za a gina gidaje ba? Wannan birni yana tukunyar dahuwa, mu ne kuwa naman.’
They say, ‘[Everything will go well for us, so] it will surely soon be [RHQ] time to build houses. [We are like] [MET] fine/choice pieces of meat that are carefully stored in covered pots, and we are protected [from the bad things that will happen to others].’
4 Saboda haka yi annabci a kansu; yi annabci, ɗan mutum.”
So, you human, prophesy [the terrible things that will happen to] them.”
5 Sai Ruhun Ubangiji ya sauko a kaina, ya kuma faɗa mini in ce, “Ga abin da Ubangiji yana cewa, haka kuke cewa, ya gidan Isra’ila, amma na san abin da yake a zuciyarku.
Then the Spirit of Yahweh came upon me and told me to [to the people], “This is what Yahweh says: You Israeli people [MTY] are saying those things, but I know what you are thinking.
6 Kun kashe mutane da yawa a wannan birni kuka kuma cika titunanta da gawawwaki.
You have killed many people in this city and filled the streets with their corpses.
7 “Saboda haka ga abin da Ubangiji Mai Iko Duka yana cewa gawawwakin da kuka zubar a can su ne naman, wannan birni kuwa ita ce tukunya, amma zan kore ku daga cikinta.
Therefore this is what Yahweh the Lord says: The corpses of the people whom you have killed here are [like] the meat [MET], and this city is [like] the pot [MET], but I will expel you from this city.
8 Kuna jin tsoron takobi, kuma takobi ne zan kawo muku, in ji Ubangiji Mai Iko Duka.
You are afraid [being killed by enemies’] swords, and that is what I will cause to happen to you.
9 Zan kore ku daga birnin in miƙa ku a hannuwan baƙi in kuma azabtar da ku.
I will expel you from this city and enable foreigners to capture you and punish you.
10 Za ku mutu ta wurin takobi, zan kuma hukunta ku a iyakokin Isra’ila. Sa’an nan za ku san cewa ni ne Ubangiji.
They will kill [EUP] you with their swords; you will be punished [right here] in Israel. Then people will realize that I, Yahweh, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].
11 Wannan birni ba za tă zama muku tukunya ba, ba kuwa za ku zama nama a cikinta ba; zan hukunta ku a iyakokin Isra’ila.
This city will not be [a place were you will be protected like] [MET] meat in a covered pot. I will punish you wherever you are in Israel.
12 Za ku kuwa san cewa ni ne Ubangiji, gama ba ku bi ƙa’idodina ba balle ku kiyaye dokokina, amma kuka bi hanyoyin al’ummai kewaye da ku.”
And you will know that I, Yahweh, [have predicted that would happen], because you have not obeyed my commands and decrees; instead, you have imitated [wicked] behavior [of the people] of the nearby nations.”
13 Yanzu yayinda nake yin annabci, sai Felatiya ɗan Benahiya ya mutu. Sai na fāɗi rubda ciki na kuma yi kuka da babbar murya na ce, “Kash, Ubangiji Mai Iko Duka! Za ka hallaka raguwar Isra’ila ƙaƙaf ne?”
While I was prophesying that, Pelatiah the son of Benaiah [suddenly] died. Then I prostrated myself on the ground and cried out loudly, “Yahweh my Lord, are you going [similarly] get rid of all the Israeli people who are still alive?”
14 Sai maganar Ubangiji ta zo mini cewa,
Then Yahweh gave me this message:
15 “Ɗan mutum,’yan’uwanka,’yan’uwanka waɗanda suke danginka na cikinka da kuma dukan gidan Isra’ila su ne waɗanda mutanen Urushalima suka ce, ‘Su ne da nisa daga Ubangiji; an ba mu wannan ƙasa ta zama mallakarmu.’
“You human, the people who are still in Jerusalem are talking about you and your own relatives and about all the other people who were (exiled/forced to go to other countries), saying, ‘They [in Babylonia], far from Yahweh. They have left their [here in Israel, so] their property now belongs to us!’”
16 “Saboda haka ka ce, ‘Ga abin da Ubangiji Mai Iko Duka yana cewa ko da yake na kore su zuwa cikin al’ummai na kuma warwatsa su cikin ƙasashe, duk da haka na zama wuri mai tsarki a gare su a ƙasashen da suka tafi.’
So tell [them], “This is what Yahweh the Lord says: Although I caused them to be taken far [from Israel] and scattered them among other nations, for a short time I will (be like a refuge for/protect) them in the countries to which they have been taken.”
17 “Saboda haka, ka ce, ‘Ga abin da Ubangiji Mai Iko Duka yana cewa zan tattaro ku daga al’ummai in kuma dawo da ku daga ƙasashen da aka warwatsa ku, zan kuwa sāke mayar muku da ƙasar Isra’ila.’
So also tell them, “This is what Yahweh the Lord says: [Some day] I will gather you from the [to which you have been taken] and bring you back to Israel, and you will live in your country/land [again].
18 “Za su dawo gare ta su kawar da dukan mugayen siffofi da gumaka masu banƙyama.
When you return to your country, you will get rid of all the vile statues of gods and detestable idols.
19 Zan ba su zuciya ɗaya in kuma sa sabon ruhu a cikinsu; zan fid da zuciyar dutse daga gare su in kuma ba su zuciya ta nama.
I will put a new way of thinking [IDM] within you. I will cause you to no longer be stubborn [IDM], and I will enable you to obey me completely [IDM].
20 Sa’an nan za su bi ƙa’idodina su kuma yi hankali ga kiyaye dokokina. Za su zama mutanena, ni kuwa zan zama Allahnsu.
When I do that, you will carefully obey all my laws [DOU]. You will be my people, and I will be your God.
21 Amma game da waɗanda zukatansu suka karkata ga bin mugayen siffofi da gumakan banƙyama, zan sāka musu gwargwadon ayyukansu, in ji Ubangiji Mai Iko Duka.”
But as for those who are devoted [worshiping] their vile statues and detestable idols, I will punish them as they deserve for the evil things that they have done.’”
22 Sa’an nan kerubobi, tare da da’irori kusa da su, suka buɗe fikafikansu, ɗaukakar Allah kuwa tana a bisansu.
Then the winged creatures, with their wheels beside them, spread their [and flew up into the air], and the dazzling brightness of Yahweh was above them.
23 Ɗaukakar Ubangiji ta haura daga cikin birnin ta sauka a bisa dutse gabas da shi.
That light went up away from the city and stopped above the mountain to the east of the city.
24 Ruhu ya ɗaga ni sama ya kuma kawo ni ga masu zaman bauta a ƙasar Babilon cikin wahayin da Ruhun Allah ya bayar. Sa’an nan wahayin da na gani ya rabu da ni,
In the vision [that I had been seeing, God’s] Spirit lifted me up and brought me [back] to the (exiles in/people who had been forced to go to) Babylonia. Then the vision ended,
25 na kuwa faɗa wa masu zaman bautan dukan abin da Ubangiji ya nuna mini.
and I told the exiles everything that Yahweh had shown [in the vision].
