< Ezekiyel 21 >

1 Maganar Ubangiji ta zo mini cewa,
And the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,
2 “Ɗan mutum, ka kafa fuskarka gāba da Urushalima ka kuma yi wa’azi a kan wuri mai tsarki. Ka yi annabci gāba da ƙasar Isra’ila
Son of man, direct thy face toward Jerusalem, and preach toward the holy places, and prophesy against the land of Israel,
3 ka faɗa mata, ‘Ga abin da Ubangiji ya ce ina gāba da ke. Zan ja takobina daga kubensa in karkashe adalai da mugaye daga cikinki.
And say to the land of Israel, Thus hath said the Lord, Behold, I will be against thee, and will draw forth my sword out of its sheath; and I will cut off from thee the righteous and the wicked.
4 Domin zan karkashe adalai da kuma mugaye, ba zan rufe takobina a kan kowa daga kudu zuwa arewa ba.
But because I shall have cut off from thee the righteous and the wicked: therefore shall my sword go forth out of its sheath against all flesh from the south to the north;
5 Sa’an nan duka mutane za su san cewa Ni Ubangiji na ja takobina daga kubensa; ba zai sāke koma kuma ba.’
That all flesh may know that I the Lord have drawn forth my sword out of its sheath; it shall not return any more.
6 “Saboda ka yi nishi, ɗan mutum! Yi nishi a gabansu da ajiyar zuciya da ɓacin rai.
But thou, son of man, do thou sigh: as though with broken loins, and with bitterness [of grief] shalt thou sigh before their eyes.
7 Kuma sa’ad da suka tambaye ka, ‘Me ya sa kake nishi?’ Sai ka ce musu, ‘Domin labarun da suke fitowa. Kowace zuciya za tă narke kowane hannu kuma ya gurgunta; kowane ruhu zai sume kowane gwiwa kuma ta rasa ƙarfi kamar ruwa.’ Yana zuwa! Tabbatacce zai faru, in ji Ubangiji Mai Iko Duka.”
And it shall be, when they say unto thee, Wherefore sighest thou? that thou shalt say, For the report, because it cometh, when every heart shall melt, and all hands shall be made feeble, and every spirit shall become faint, and all knees shall be changed into water: behold, it cometh, and shall be brought to pass, saith the Lord Eternal.
8 Maganar Ubangiji ta zo mini cewa,
And the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,
9 “Ɗan mutum, yi annabci ka ce, ‘Ga abin da Ubangiji ya faɗa, “‘Takobi, takobi, wasasshe da kuma gogagge,
Son of man, prophesy, and say, Thus hath said the Lord, Say, The sword, the sword is sharpened, and also polished;
10 wasasshe don kisa, gogagge har yana walwal kamar walƙiya! “‘Kada ku yi farin ciki, hukunci yana zuwa, domin kowa ya ƙi jin abin da na yi gargaɗi a kai.
In order to make a thorough slaughter is it sharpened; in order that it may glitter is it polished: how can we now rejoice, [when] the rod which reacheth my son excelleth in hardness every tree?
11 “‘An ba da wannan takobi don a goge, don a kama da hannu; an washe shi aka kuma goge, shiryayye don a yi kisa da shi.
And he hath given it to be polished, to make it fit to grasp it in the hand: it is the sword which is sharpened, and it is polished, to place it into the hand of the slayer.
12 Ka yi kuka ka yi makoki, ɗan mutum, gama yana gāba da dukan sarakunan Isra’ila. An jefa su ga takobi tare da jama’ata. Saboda haka ku buga ƙirjinku.
Cry aloud and wail, O son of man; for it cometh against my people, it cometh against all the princes of Israel; brought together for the sword are they with my people: therefore strike [thy hand] upon thy thigh.
13 “‘Gwaji tabbatacce zai zo. Kuma a ce sandan Yahuda, wanda takobi ya ƙi, ya ci gaba? In ji Ubangiji Mai Iko Duka.’
For a purification taketh place: and what if the irresistible rod will also come? [my son] would not be able to exist, saith the Lord Eternal.
14 “Saboda haka fa, ɗan mutum ka yi annabci ka kuma tafa hannuwanka. Bari takobi ya yi sara sau biyu, har sau uku ma. Takobin kisa ne, takobi ne don kisa mai girma, zai kewaye su a kowane gefe.
But thou, son of man, prophesy, and strike thy hands together, and let “The sword” be repeated the third time, the sword of the slain: it is the sword of the great that are slain, which lieth in wait for them everywhere.
15 Domin zukata su narke da yawa kuma su fāɗi, na tsai da takobin kisa a dukan ƙofofinsu. Kash! A sa ya haska kamar walƙiya, ana riƙe da shi don kisa.
In order to make timid the heart, and to multiply the stumbling-blocks, do I bring the howling of the sword against all their gates: ah! it is made bright, it is made thin-edged for the slaughter.
16 Ya takobi, yi sara zuwa dama ka yi kuma zuwa hagu, duk inda aka juya ka.
Gather up thy strength, go to the right hand, direct thyself, go to the left, whithersoever thy edge is turned.
17 Zan tafa hannuwana, fushina kuwa zai sauka. Ni Ubangiji na faɗa.”
And I also, —I will strike my hands together, and I will cause my fury to be assuaged: I the Lord have spoken it.
18 Sai maganar Ubangiji ta zo mini cewa,
And the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,
19 “Ɗan mutum, ka nuna hanyoyi biyu inda takobin sarkin Babilon zai bi, duka biyun su fara daga ƙasa guda. Ka kafa shaida inda hanyar za tă rabu zuwa cikin birni.
But thou, O son of man, appoint thee two ways, that the sword of the king of Babylon may come; out of one land shall both of them come forth: and select a place; at the head of the way to a city do thou select it.
20 Ka nuna hanya guda wadda takobi zai fāɗo wa Rabba ta Ammonawa ɗayan kuma da zai fāɗo a kan Yahuda da kuma Urushalima mai katanga.
A way shalt thou appoint, that the sword may come against Rabbah of the children of 'Ammon, and [the other] against Judah [dwelling] in Jerusalem the fortified.
21 Gama sarkin Babilon zai tsaya a mararrabar hanya, a inda hanyar ta rabu biyu, don yă yi duba. Zai jefa ƙuri’a da kibiyoyinsa, zai nemi shawarar gumakansa, zai bincike hanta.
For the king of Babylon hath halted at the parting of the way, at the commencement of the two ways, to use divination: he shaketh the arrows, he consulteth with images, he looketh at the liver.
22 A hannunsa na dama ƙuri’a don Urushalima za tă fito, inda zai kafa dundurusai, ya ba da umarni kisa, a yi kururuwar yaƙi, a kafa dundurusai a kan ƙofofi, a gina mahaurai a kuma yi ƙawanya.
At his right hand was the divination for Jerusalem, to erect battering-rams, to open the mouth with the [cry for] murder, to lift up the voice with shouting, to place battering-rams against the gates, to cast up a mound, and to build works of attack.
23 Zai zama kamar duban ƙarya ne ga waɗanda suka yi rantsuwar yin masa biyayya, amma zai tunashe su game da laifinsu ya kuma kama su.
And it will appear unto them as a false divination in their eyes, to those that had sworn oaths; but he will bring to remembrance their iniquity, that they may be caught.
24 “Saboda haka ga abin da Ubangiji Mai Iko Duka yana cewa, ‘Domin ku mutanen nan kun tuna da laifinku ta wurin tawaye, kun kuma bayyana zunubanku cikin dukan abin da kuke yi, domin kun yi haka, za a kama ku.
Therefore thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Because ye have brought your iniquity to remembrance, as your transgressions are discovered, so that your sins do appear in all your doings: because ye are thus brought to remembrance, ye shall be caught by [his] hand.
25 “‘Ya kai ƙazantaccen mugu, yerima Isra’ila, wanda kwanansa ta zo, wanda lokacin hukuncinsa ya cika fal,
And thou, death-deserving wicked one, prince of Israel, whose day is come, at the time of the iniquity of the end, —
26 ga abin da Ubangiji Mai Iko Duka yana cewa ka kunce rawanin, ka ɗauke rawanin nan. Ba zai zama kamar yadda yake ba. Za a ɗaukaka ƙasƙantacce, amma a ƙasƙantar da mai girma.
Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Remove the mitre, and take off the crown: this shall not be always so; exalt him that is low, and make him low that is high.
27 Hallaka! Hallaka! Zan hallaka shi! Ba za a maido da shi ba sai ya ga ainihin mai shi; gare shi zan bayar da shi.’
Overthrown, overthrown, overthrown will I render it: also this shall not belong [to any one], until he come whose right it is, and I will give it him.
28 “Kai kuma, ɗan mutum, ka yi annabci ka ce, ‘Ga abin da Ubangiji Mai Iko Duka yana cewa game da Ammonawa da kuma zarginsu. “‘Takobi, takobi, an ja don kisa, an goge don cinyewa yana haske kamar walƙiya!
And thou, son of man, prophesy, and say, Thus hath said the Lord Eternal concerning the children of 'Ammon, and concerning their reproach: even say thou, The sword, the sword is drawn; for the slaughter is it polished, to destroy, that it may continue to glitter;
29 Duk da wahayin ƙarya game da kai, duban ƙarya game da kai, za a sa shi a wuyan mugaye waɗanda za a kashe, waɗanda kwanansu ta zo, waɗanda lokacin hukuncinsu ya cika fal.
While they foresee unto thee falsehood, while they divine unto thee lies, to lay thee by the necks of the slain wicked, whose day is come, at the time of the iniquity of the end.
30 “‘Ka mai da takobi a kubensa. A inda aka halicce ka, a ƙasar kakanninka, zan hukunta ka.
Put back [the sword] into its sheath! in the place where thou wast created, in the land of thy origin, will I judge thee.
31 Zan zub da hasalata a kanka in hura maka wutar fushina; Zan ba da kai a hannun mugayen mutanen da suka gwanince a hallakarwa.
And I will pour out over thee my indignation, with the fire of my wrath will I blow against thee, and I will give thee up into the hand of brutish men, skilful in destroying.
32 Za ka zama itacen wuta, za a zub da jininka a ƙasarka, ba za a ƙara tuna da kai ba; gama Ni Ubangiji na faɗa.’”
To the fire shalt thou be given to be devoured; thy blood shall be in the midst of the land: thou shalt not be remembered [any more]; for I the Lord have spoken it.
