< Ezekiyel 15 >
1 Maganar Ubangiji ta zo mini cewa,
And the word of Jehovah came to me, saying:
2 “Ɗan mutum, da me itacen kuringa ya fi reshen waɗansu itatuwa kyau a cikin kurmi?
Son of man, what is the wood of the vine more than any wood, —a branch, that is among the trees of the forest?
3 An taɓa ɗaukan itacensa an yi wani abu mai amfani? Akan yi maratayi da ita da za a rataya wani abu a kai?
Shall wood be taken from it to be wrought into any work? Or will men take a pin of it to hang a vessel upon?
4 Bayan kuma a jefa ta cikin wuta, wuta kuma ta cinye kowane gefe ta kuma babbaka tsakiyarta, tana da amfani don yin wani abu kuma?
Behold, it is cast into the fire for fuel; the fire devoureth both the ends of it, and the middle of it is burned. Is it then fit for any work?
5 In ba ta da amfanin wani abu sa’ad da take cikakkiya, balle bayan da wuta ta babbake ta, za a iya yin amfani da ita?
Behold, when it was whole, nothing could be made of it; how much less can anything be made of it when the fire hath devoured it and it is burned!
6 “Saboda haka ga abin da Ubangiji Mai Iko Duka yana cewa kamar yadda na ba da itacen kuringa a cikin itatuwan kurmi ya zama itacen wuta, haka zan sa mazaunan Urushalima su zama.
Therefore thus saith the Lord Jehovah: As the wood of the vine among the trees of the forest, which I have given to the fire for fuel, so will I give to it the inhabitants of Jerusalem.
7 Zan yi gāba da su. Ko da yake sun fito daga wuta, wuta za tă cinye su. Kuma sa’ad da na yi gāba da su, za ku san cewa ni ne Ubangiji.
And I will set my face against them; they shall go out from one fire, and another fire shall devour them; and ye shall know that I am Jehovah, when I set my face against them.
8 Zan mai da ƙasar kufai domin sun yi rashin aminci, in ji Ubangiji Mai Iko Duka.”
And I will make the land desolate, because they have grievously trespassed, saith the Lord Jehovah.
