Ezekiyel 3

1 Ya kuma ce mini, “Ɗan mutum, ka ci abin da yake a gabanka, ka ci wannan littafi; sa’an nan ka tafi ka yi magana wa gidan Isra’ila.”

“Son of man,” He said to me, “eat what you find here. Eat this scroll, then go and speak to the house of Israel.”

2 Saboda haka na buɗe bakina, ya kuma ba ni littafin in ci.

So I opened my mouth, and He fed me the scroll.

3 Sai ya ce mini, “Ɗan mutum, ka ci wannan littafin da nake ba ka, ka kuma cika cikinka da shi.” Sai na ci shi, ya kuma yi zaki kamar zuma a bakina.

“Son of man,” He said to me, “eat and fill your stomach with this scroll I am giving you.” So I ate, and it was as sweet as honey in my mouth.

4 Sa’an nan ya ce mini, “Ɗan mutum, yanzu ka tafi gidan Isra’ila ka faɗa kalmomina gare su.

Then He said to me, “Son of man, go now to the house of Israel and speak My words to them.

5 Ba ina aikan ka wurin mutanen da suke da baƙon harshe da kuma yare mai wuya ba ne, amma zuwa ga gidan Isra’ila ne,

For you are not being sent to a people of unfamiliar speech or difficult language, but to the house of Israel—

6 ba ga mutane da yawa na baƙon harshe da yare mai wuya, waɗanda ba ka san kalmominsu ba. Tabbatacce da na aike ka wurin irinsu, da sun saurare ka.

not to the many peoples of unfamiliar speech and difficult language whose words you cannot understand. Surely if I had sent you to them, they would have listened to you.

7 Amma gidan Isra’ila ba sa niyya su saurare ka domin ba sa niyya su saurare ni, gama dukan gidan Isra’ila sun taurare suna kuma kin ji.

But the house of Israel will be unwilling to listen to you, since they are unwilling to listen to Me. For the whole house of Israel is hard-headed and hard-hearted.

8 Amma zan sa ka zama mai taurinkai da taurin zuciya kamar su.

Behold, I will make your face as hard as their faces, and your forehead as hard as their foreheads.

9 Zan sa goshinka ya zama da tauri kamar dutse, da tauri fiye da dutsen ƙanƙara ƙarfi. Kada ka ji tsoronsu ko ka firgita ta wurinsu, ko da yake su gidan’yan tawaye ne.”

I will make your forehead like a diamond, harder than flint. Do not be afraid of them or dismayed at their presence, even though they are a rebellious house.”

10 Ya kuma ce mini, “Ɗan mutum, ka ji da kyau ka kuma lura da dukan kalmomin da nake maka magana.

“Son of man,” He added, “listen carefully to all the words I speak to you, and take them to heart.

11 Ka tafi yanzu zuwa ga’yan’uwanka waɗanda suke zaman bauta ka yi musu magana. Ka ce musu, ‘Ga abin da Ubangiji Mai Iko Duka yana cewa,’ ko ku ji, ko kada ku ji.”

Go to your people, the exiles; speak to them and tell them, ‘This is what the Lord GOD says,’ whether they listen or refuse to listen.”

12 Sa’an nan Ruhu ya ɗaga ni sama, a bayana na ji wata karar babban motsi na cewa, Bari a yabi ɗaukakar Ubangiji a wurin zamansa!

Then the Spirit lifted me up, and I heard a great rumbling sound behind me: ‘Blessed be the glory of the LORD in His dwelling place!’

13 Karar fikafikan rayayyun halittun nan ne suke goge junansu da kuma karar da’irorin nan da suke kusa da su, ƙarar babban motsi.

It was the sound of the wings of the living creatures brushing against one another and the sound of the wheels beside them, a great rumbling sound.

14 Sa’an nan Ruhu ya ɗaga ni sama ya kuma tafi da ni, na kuwa tafi da ɓacin rai da kuma fushin ruhuna, tare da hannu mai ƙarfi na Ubangiji a bisa na.

So the Spirit lifted me up and took me away, and I went in bitterness and in the anger of my spirit, with the strong hand of the LORD upon me.

15 Na zo wurin masu zaman bautan da suke zama a Tel Abib kusa da Kogin Kebar, A can kuwa, inda suke zama, na zauna a cikinsu kwana bakwai, ina mamaki.

I came to the exiles at Tel-abib who dwelt by the River Kebar. And for seven days I sat where they sat and remained there among them, overwhelmed.

16 A ƙarshen kwana bakwai ɗin maganar Ubangiji ta zo mini cewa,

At the end of seven days the word of the LORD came to me, saying,

17 “Ɗan mutum, na mai da kai mai tsaro don gidan Isra’ila; saboda haka ka ji maganar da zan yi ka kuma yi musu kashedin nan da ya fito daga gare ni.

“Son of man, I have made you a watchman for the house of Israel. Whenever you hear a word from My mouth, give them a warning from Me.

18 In na ce wa mugu, ‘Lalle za ka mutu,’ ba ka kuwa yi masa kashedi ko ka tsawata masa a kan mugayen hanyoyinsa don yă ceci ransa ba, wannan mugun zai mutu saboda zunubinsa, zan kuwa nemi hakkin jininsa a hannunka.

If I say to the wicked man, ‘You will surely die,’ but you do not warn him or speak out to warn him from his wicked way to save his life, that wicked man will die in his iniquity, and I will hold you responsible for his blood.

19 Amma in ka yi wa mugun kashedi bai kuwa juya daga mugayen hanyoyinsa ba, zai mutu saboda zunubinsa; amma kai kam za ka kuɓuta.

But if you warn a wicked man and he does not turn from his wickedness and his wicked way, he will die in his iniquity, but you will have saved yourself.

20 “Har yanzu, in mai adalci ya juya daga adalcinsa ya aikata mugunta, na kuma sa abin tuntuɓe a gabansa, zai mutu. Da yake ba ka yi masa kashedi ba, zai mutu saboda zunubinsa. Ba za a tuna da abin adalcin da ya yi ba, zan kuwa nemi hakkin jininsa a hannunka.

Now if a righteous man turns from his righteousness and commits iniquity, and I put a stumbling block before him, he will die. If you did not warn him, he will die in his sin, and the righteous acts he did will not be remembered. And I will hold you responsible for his blood.

21 Amma in ka yi wa mai adalcin kashedi kada yă yi zunubi bai kuwa yi zunubi ba, tabbatacce zai rayu saboda ya ji kashedin, kuma kai kam za ka kuɓuta.”

But if you warn the righteous man not to sin, and he does not sin, he will indeed live because he heeded your warning, and you will have saved yourself.”

22 Hannun Ubangiji ya kasance a kaina a can, ya kuma ce mini, “Tashi ka fita zuwa fili, a can kuwa zan yi maka magana.”

And there the hand of the LORD was upon me, and He said to me, “Get up, go out to the plain, and there I will speak with you.”

23 Saboda haka na tashi da tafi fili. Ɗaukakar Ubangiji kuwa ta tsaya a can, kamar ɗaukakar da na gani kusa da Kogin Kebar, sai na fāɗi rubda ciki.

So I got up and went out to the plain, and behold, the glory of the LORD was present there, like the glory I had seen by the River Kebar, and I fell facedown.

24 Sai Ruhu ya sauko a kaina ya kuma ɗaga ni na tsaya a ƙafafuna. Ya yi mini magana ya ce, “Ka fita, ka rufe kanka a cikin gida.

Then the Spirit entered me and set me on my feet. He spoke with me and said, “Go, shut yourself inside your house.

25 Kuma kai, ɗan mutum, za su ɗaura ka da igiyoyi; za a daure ka yadda ba za ka iya fita a cikin mutane ba.

And you, son of man, they will tie with ropes, and you will be bound so that you cannot go out among the people.

26 Zan sa harshenka ya manne wa dasashinka don ka yi shiru ka kuma kāsa tsawata musu, ko da yake su gidan’yan tawaye ne.

I will make your tongue stick to the roof of your mouth, and you will be silent and unable to rebuke them, though they are a rebellious house.

27 Amma sa’ad da na yi maka magana, zan buɗe bakinka za ka kuwa faɗa musu cewa, ‘Ga abin da Ubangiji Mai Iko Duka ya faɗa.’ Duk mai ji ya ji, kuma duk wanda ya ƙi ji, ya ƙi ji; gama su gida ne na’yan tawaye.

But when I speak with you, I will open your mouth, and you are to tell them, ‘This is what the Lord GOD says.’ Whoever listens, let him listen; and whoever refuses, let him refuse, for they are a rebellious house.
