Ezekiyel 33

1 Maganar Ubangiji ta zo mini cewa,

And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,

2 “Ɗan mutum, yi magana da mutanen ƙasarka ka faɗa musu cewa, ‘Sa’ad da na kawo takobi a kan ƙasar, mutanen ƙasar kuwa suka zaɓi ɗaya daga cikin mutanensu suka mai da shi mai tsaro,

Son of man, speak to the children of thy people, and say unto them, When I bring the sword upon a land, if the people of the land take a man from among them, and set him for their watchman:

3 ya kuma ga takobi yana zuwa a kan ƙasar ya kuwa busa ƙaho don yă faɗakar da mutane,

if, when he seeth the sword come upon the land, he blow the trumpet, and warn the people;

4 in wani ya ji busar amma bai kula ba, takobin zai zo ya ɗauki ransa, jininsa kuwa zai zauna a kansa.

then whosoever heareth the sound of the trumpet, and taketh not warning, if the sword come, and take him away, his blood shall be upon his own head.

5 Da yake ya ji ƙarar busar amma bai kula ba, jininsa zai zauna a kansa. Da a ce ya kula, da ya ceci kansa.

He heard the sound of the trumpet, and took not warning; his blood shall be upon him: whereas if he had taken warning he should have delivered his soul.

6 Amma a ce mai tsaron ya ga takobi yana zuwa bai kuwa busa ƙaho don yă faɗakar da mutane ba sai takobi ya zo ya ɗauki ran waninsu, za a kawar da wannan mutum saboda zunubinsa, amma zan nemi hakkin jinin mutumin a kan mai tsaron.’

But if the watchman see the sword come, and blow not the trumpet, and the people be not warned, and the sword come, and take any person from among them; he is taken away in his iniquity, but his blood will I require at the watchman’s hand.

7 “Ɗan mutum, na mai da kai mai tsaro bisa gidan Isra’ila; saboda haka ka ji abin da zan faɗa ka kuma gargaɗe su.

So thou, son of man, I have set thee a watchman unto the house of Israel; therefore hear the word at my mouth, and give them warning from me.

8 Sa’ad da na ce wa mugu, ‘Ya mugun mutum, tabbatacce za ka mutu,’ kai kuma ba ka yi magana don ka juyar da shi daga hanyoyinsa ba, wannan mugun mutum zai mutu domin zunubinsa, zan kuma nemi hakkin jininsa a kanka.

When I say unto the wicked, O wicked man, thou shalt surely die, and thou dost not speak to warn the wicked from his way; that wicked man shall die in his iniquity, but his blood will I require at thine hand.

9 Amma in ka faɗakar da mugun mutumin don yă juye daga hanyoyinsa bai kuwa yi haka ba, zai mutu saboda zunubinsa, amma kai za ka kuɓutar da kanka.

Nevertheless, if thou warn the wicked of his way to turn from it, and he turn not from his way; he shall die in his iniquity, but thou hast delivered thy soul.

10 “Ɗan mutum, faɗa wa gidan Isra’ila, ‘Ga abin da kuke cewa, “Laifofinmu da zunubanmu suna nawaita mana, muna kuma lalacewa saboda su. Ta ƙaƙa za mu rayu?”’

And thou, son of man, say unto the house of Israel: Thus ye speak, saying, Our transgressions and our sins are upon us, and we pine away in them; how then should we live?

11 Ka faɗa musu, ‘Muddin ina raye, in ji Ubangiji Mai Iko Duka, ba na jin daɗin mutuwar mugu, amma a maimako haka ya fi su juye daga hanyoyinsu su rayu. Ku juye! Ku juye daga mugayen hanyoyinku! Don me za ku mutu, ya gidan Isra’ila?’

Say unto them, As I live, saith the Lord GOD, I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked; but that the wicked turn from his way and live: turn ye, turn ye from your evil ways; for why will ye die, O house of Israel?

12 “Saboda haka, ɗan mutum, ka faɗa wa mutanen ƙasarka, ‘Adalcin adali ba zai cece shi sa’ad da ya ƙi yin biyayya ba, kuma muguntar mugu ba za tă sa ya fāɗi sa’ad da ya juya daga gare ta ba. Adali, in ya yi zunubi, ba za a bari yă rayu saboda adalcinsa na dā ba.’

And thou, son of man, say unto the children of thy people, The righteousness of the righteous shall not deliver him in the day of his transgression; and as for the wickedness of the wicked, he shall not fall thereby in the day that he turneth from his wickedness: neither shall he that is righteous be able to live thereby in the day that he sinneth.

13 In na faɗa wa adali cewa tabbatacce zai rayu, amma sai ya dogara ga adalcinsa ya kuma aikata mugunta, babu ayyukan adalcinsa da za a tuna; zai mutu saboda muguntar da ya aikata.

When I say to the righteous, that he shall surely live; if he trust to his righteousness, and commit iniquity, none of his righteous deeds shall be remembered; but in his iniquity that he hath committed, therein shall he die.

14 Kuma in na ce wa mugu, ‘Tabbatacce za ka mutu,’ amma sai ya juye daga zunubinsa ya kuma yi abin da yake gaskiya da kuma daidai,

Again, when I say unto the wicked, Thou shalt surely die; if he turn from his sin, and do that which is lawful and right;

15 in ya mayar da jingina, ya mayar da abin da ya sata, ya kiyaye ƙa’idodin da suke ba da rai, ya daina yin mugunta, tabbatacce zai rayu; ba zai mutu ba.

if the wicked restore the pledge, give again that he had taken by robbery, walk in the statutes of life, committing no iniquity; he shall surely live, he shall not die.

16 Babu wani zunubin da ya aikata da za a tuna da shi. Ya yi abin da yake gaskiya da kuma daidai; tabbatacce zai rayu.

None of his sins that he hath committed shall be remembered against him: he hath done that which is lawful and right; he shall surely live.

17 “Duk da haka mutanen ƙasarka sun ce, ‘Hanyar Ubangiji ba daidai ba ce.’ Alhali kuwa tasu ce ba daidai ba.

Yet the children of thy people say, The way of the Lord is not equal: but as for them, their way is not equal.

18 In adali ya juye daga adalcinsa ya yi mugunta, zai mutu saboda haka.

When the righteous turneth from his righteousness, and committeth iniquity, he shall even die therein.

19 Kuma in mugu ya juye daga muguntarsa ya aikata abin da yake gaskiya da kuma daidai, zai rayu ta yin haka.

And when the wicked turneth from his wickedness, and doeth that which is lawful and right, he shall live thereby.

20 Duk da haka, ya gidan Isra’ila kun ce, ‘Hanyar Ubangiji ba daidai ba ce.’ Amma zan hukunta kowane ɗayanku gwargwadon ayyukansa.”

Yet ye say, The way of the Lord is not equal. O house of Israel, I will judge you every one after his ways.

21 A shekara ta goma sha biyu ta zaman bautanmu, a wata na goma a rana ta biyar, wani mutumin da ya gudu daga Urushalima ya zo wurina ya ce, “Birnin ya fāɗi!”

And it came to pass in the twelfth year of our captivity, in the tenth [month], in the fifth [day] of the month, that one that had escaped out of Jerusalem came unto me, saying, The city is smitten.

22 To a yamman da ya wuce kafin mutumin ya iso, hannun Ubangiji yana a kaina, ya kuma buɗe bakina kafin mutumin ya iso wurina da safe. Sai bakina ya buɗu ban kuma yi shiru ba.

Now the hand of the LORD had been upon me in the evening, afore he that was escaped came; and he had opened my mouth, until he came to me in the morning; and my mouth was opened, and I was no more dumb.

23 Sai maganar Ubangiji ta zo mini cewa,

And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,

24 “Ɗan mutum, mutanen da suke zama a waɗannan kufai a ƙasar Isra’ila suna cewa, ‘Ibrahim mutum ɗaya ne kaɗai, duk da haka Ibrahim ya mallaki ƙasar. Amma mu da muke da yawa; lalle an ba mu ƙasar ta zama mallakarmu.’

Son of man, they that inhabit those waste places in the land of Israel speak, saying, Abraham was one, and he inherited the land: but we are many; the land is given us for inheritance.

25 Saboda haka ka faɗa musu, ‘Ga abin da Ubangiji Mai Iko Duka yana cewa da yake kun ci nama da jini a cikinsa kuka kuma bauta wa gumakanku kuka zub da jini, kuna gani za ku mallaki ƙasar?

Wherefore say unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD: Ye eat with the blood, and lift up your eyes unto your idols, and shed blood: and shall ye possess the land?

26 Kun dogara ga takobinku, kuka aikata abubuwan banƙyama, kowannenku kuma ya ƙazantar da matar maƙwabcinsa. Kuna gani za ku mallaki ƙasar?’

Ye stand upon your sword, ye work abomination, and ye defile every one his neighbour’s wife: and shall ye possess the land?

27 “Ka faɗa musu wannan, ‘Ga abin da Ubangiji Mai Iko Duka yana cewa muddin ina raye, waɗanda aka rage a kufai za su fāɗi ga takobi, waɗanda suke bayan gari kuwa namun jeji za su cinye su, waɗanda suke a mafaka da kogwannin duwatsu annoba za tă kashe su.

Thus shalt thou say unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD: As I live, surely they that are in the waste places shall fall by the sword, and him that is in the open field will I give to the beasts to be devoured, and they that be in the strong holds and in the caves shall die of the pestilence.

28 Zan mai da ƙasar kango, kuma fariyar ƙarfinta zai ƙare, duwatsun Isra’ila za su zama kufai don kada wani ya ratsa su.

And I will make the land a desolation and an astonishment, and the pride of her power shall cease; and the mountains of Israel shall be desolate, that none shall pass through.

29 Sa’an nan za su san cewa ni ne Ubangiji, sa’ad da na mai da ƙasar kango saboda dukan abubuwan banƙyamar da suka yi.’

Then shall they know that I am the LORD, when I have made the land a desolation and an astonishment, because of all their abominations which they have committed.

30 “Game da kai kuma, ɗan mutum, mutanen ƙasarka suna magana da juna game da kai a katanga da kuma ƙofofin gidaje, suna ce wa juna, ‘Ku zo mu tafi mu ji maganar da ta zo daga wurin Ubangiji.’

And as for thee, son of man, the children of thy people talk of thee by the walls and in the doors of the houses, and speak one to another, everyone to his brother, saying, Come, I pray you, and hear what is the word that cometh forth from the LORD.

31 Mutanena sukan zo wurinka, yadda suka saba su zauna a gabanka don su saurari maganarka, amma ba sa aiki da abin da suka ji. Da bakunansu suna nuna ƙauna, amma zukatansu cike da haɗama suke don ƙazamar riba.

And they come unto thee as the people cometh, and they sit before thee as my people, and they hear thy words, but do them not: for with their mouth they shew much love, but their heart goeth after their gain.

32 Tabbatacce, gare su ba ka fi mai waƙar ƙauna da murya mai daɗi kana kuma yin kiɗa sosai ba, gama sukan ji maganarka amma ba sa amfani da ita.

And, lo, thou art unto them as a very lovely song of one that hath a pleasant voice, and can play well on an instrument: for they hear thy words, but they do them not.

33 “Sa’ad da dukan wannan ya cika kuma zai cika ɗin, sa’an nan za su sani akwai annabi a tsakiyarsu.”

And when this cometh to pass, (behold, it cometh, ) then shall they know that a prophet hath been among them.
