Ezekiyel 21
1 Maganar Ubangiji ta zo mini cewa,
Yahweh gave me another message. [He said, ]
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
“You human, turn toward Jerusalem. Preach about what will happen to the temple [there]. Preach about what will happen to the Israeli people.
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.
Say to them, ‘This is what Yahweh says: I am opposed to you.
4 Domin zan karkashe adalai da kuma mugaye, ba zan rufe takobina a kan kowa daga kudu zuwa arewa ba.
[what I will do to you will be as though] [MET] I will pull my sword from its sheath [and strike you]. I will kill everyone, including righteous people and wicked people [DOU]. I will get rid of everyone, 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.’
Then everyone will know [it is as though] I, Yahweh, have struck people with my sword, and I will not put it back in its sheath again.’
6 “Saboda ka yi nishi, ɗan mutum! Yi nishi a gabansu da ajiyar zuciya da ɓacin rai.
Therefore, you human, groan! Groan in front of the Israeli people very sadly and sorrowfully [IDM, DOU].
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 when they ask you, ‘Why are you groaning?’ tell them, ‘Because of the news that they soon will hear. Everyone will be very fearful [IDM], and their knees will become as weak as [SIM] water. [A great disaster] will soon occur. That is what Yahweh the Lord is promising.’”
8 Maganar Ubangiji ta zo mini cewa,
Yahweh gave me another message. [He said],
9 “Ɗan mutum, yi annabci ka ce, ‘Ga abin da Ubangiji ya faɗa, “‘Takobi, takobi, wasasshe da kuma gogagge,
“You human, prophesy and say [to them], ‘This is what Yahweh says: I have sharpened my sword and polished it.
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.
It is sharpened in order that I can [many people with it]; it is polished so that it will flash like lightning. The people of Judah will not [their being punished like this], but they did not repent [I only struck them] with a stick.
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.
A sword should be polished, and be grasped [in someone’s hand]. It should be sharpened and polished, ready for someone to use it to kill people.
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.
[So, ] you human, cry and wail, because I will use my sword to kill my people, including the leaders of Israel. They and all the other people, my people, will be killed by swords, so beat your [to show that you are sad].
13 “‘Gwaji tabbatacce zai zo. Kuma a ce sandan Yahuda, wanda takobi ya ƙi, ya ci gaba? In ji Ubangiji Mai Iko Duka.’
I am about to test my people, and the kings [MTY] of Judah will not escape being punished. That is what I, Yahweh the Lord, say.
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.
So, you human, prophesy; clap your [to show that you are very happy about what is going to happen]. My sword will strike them again and again; it is a sword for slaughtering many people, while I attack them from every side.
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 that people will be very much afraid [IDM] and many people will be killed, I have [soldiers holding] my swords at every [city] gate, ready to slaughter people. Those swords will flash like lightning, as the [soldiers] grasp them to slaughter people.
16 Ya takobi, yi sara zuwa dama ka yi kuma zuwa hagu, duk inda aka juya ka.
Their swords [APO] will slash to the right and [then] to the left, whichever way they turn the blades.
17 Zan tafa hannuwana, fushina kuwa zai sauka. Ni Ubangiji na faɗa.”
Then I will clap my [triumphantly]; and [then] I will no longer be angry. [That will surely happen because] I, Yahweh, have said it.’”
18 Sai maganar Ubangiji ta zo mini cewa,
Yahweh gave me another message. [He said, ]
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.
“You human, [a map], and on it mark two roads for the King of Babylonia to march [along with his army, carrying] their swords. When they depart from their country, they will come to a sign post where the road divides.
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.
[If they continue on the one road, ] they will attack [city], the capital of the Ammon people-group. [If they continue on the other road, ] they will come to Judah and to Jerusalem, [a city] with walls around it.
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.
[When the army of] Babylonia comes to where the road divides, [they will stop], and the king will perform magic rituals [to decide which road to go on]. He will throw arrows; [then] consult his [about which road to go on], and he will (examine/look at) the [of a sheep].
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.
With his right hand he will pick up the arrow marked ‘Jerusalem’. He will [command his soldiers to go to Jerusalem. When they arrive there, they] will set up (rams/devices to [down the walls], ) and [then] the king will give the command for them to slaughter [the people]. They will shout [a battle-cry], and they will set up the rams against the [city] gates. They will build a dirt ramp [against the walls around the city], and set up things to bash those walls.
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.
The [in Jerusalem] who had promised [to be loyal to the King of Babylonia will think that those rituals must be wrong. They will think that his army should not be attacking them]. But he will remind them of the sins [MTY] that they had committed, [his army] will capture them.
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, [tell the Israeli people that] this is what Yahweh the Lord says: ‘You people have allowed everyone to see that you are openly [against the King of Babylonia], and by doing that you have shown that everything that you do is sinful. Therefore you will be captured and [to Babylonia].’
25 “‘Ya kai ƙazantaccen mugu, yerima Isra’ila, wanda kwanansa ta zo, wanda lokacin hukuncinsa ya cika fal,
Also, say, ‘You very wicked [DOU] king of Israel, it is your [to die]. It is the time for you to be punished.’
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.
And this is what Yahweh the Lord says [to you soldiers from Babylonia]: ‘Take off [the king’s] turban and his crown, because now things will be different than they were [before]. [in Jerusalem] who had no authority will now be given authority, and those who had authority will have their authority taken from them.
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.’
[Jerusalem] will be completely ruined. I will cause it to be ruined, and it will not be rebuilt/restored until the king to whom the city truly belongs comes; I will give it to [to rule it].’”
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, you human, prophesy and say [this]: 'This is what Yahweh the Lord says about the Ammon people-group, and about what they have said to insult [Israel]: [“The King of Babylon says, ] ‘[My soldiers have] swords’ [APO]; they have pulled out those swords to slaughter many people. They have polished them in order to kill people, and to make those swords flash like lightning.
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.
[Your prophets] have given you false visions about [what will happen to] you, and they have given you messages that are not true. So swords will strike the necks of those wicked people; it is time for them to be killed; it is the day when they will be [for their sins].
30 “‘Ka mai da takobi a kubensa. A inda aka halicce ka, a ƙasar kakanninka, zan hukunta ka.
You must put your swords back in their sheaths [because the days for you to slaughter your enemies are ended]. I will judge those people in the country where they were born.
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.
I will pour out my punishment [MTY] on them. Because I am very angry with them, my breath on them will scorch them [like] fire [MET]. I will allow brutal men to capture them, men who are experts in killing people.
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.’”
You will be [like] fuel [MET] [that is burned] in a fire. Your blood will be shed in your own land. No one will remember you any more. [That will surely happen because] I, Yahweh, have said it.” '”
