< Ezekiyel 9 >
1 Sai na ji ya yi kira da babbar murya yana cewa, “Kawo matsaran birni a nan, kowanne da makami a hannunsa.”
Then cried he in mine ears with a loud voice, saying, Draw near ye that have charge of the city, -even every man with his weapon of destruction in his hand.
2 Na kuma ga mutane shida suna zuwa daga kowane gefen ƙofar ta bisa, wadda take fuskantar arewa, kowanne da makamin kisa a hannunsa. Tare da su akwai mutum saye da lilin yana rataye da jaka ƙunshe da kayan rubutu a gefensa. Suka shiga suka tsaya kusa da bagaden tagulla.
And lo! six men coming in out of the way of the upper gate which looketh toward the north even every man with his destructive weapon in his hand, and one man in their midst clothed with linen, having a scribe’s ink holder by his side, —so they came in and stood beside the altar of bronze.
3 To, fa, ɗaukakar Allah na Isra’ila ta haura daga bisa kerubobi, inda ta kasance, ta tashi zuwa bakin madogarar ƙofar haikali. Sai Ubangiji ya kira mutumin da yake saye da lilin wanda ya rataye jaka ƙunshe da kayan rubutu a gefensa
And the glory of the God of Israel lifted itself up from off the cherub whereon it had been, unto the threshold of the house, —and he called unto the man clothed with linen, who had the scribe’s ink holder by his side.
4 ya ce masa, “Ka ratsa birnin Urushalima ka sa shaida a goshin waɗanda suke baƙin ciki da kuma makoki a kan dukan abubuwan banƙyamar da ake yi a cikinsa.”
Then said Yahweh unto him. Pass along through the midst of the city, through the midst of Jerusalem, —and set thou a mark upon the foreheads of the men who are sighing and crying over all the abominations that are being done in her midst.
5 Yayinda nake saurara, sai ya ce wa waɗansu, “Ku bi shi ta birnin ku kuma kashe, babu tausayi ko kuwa jinƙai.
But unto these, said he in mine ears, Pass along through the city after him and smite, —let not your eye, shield, neither have ye pity:
6 Ku kashe tsofaffi da samari da’yan mata, mata da yara, amma kada ku taɓa wani wanda yake da shaida. Ku fara a wuri mai tsarkina.” Saboda haka suka fara da dattawan da suke gaban haikali.
elder, young man and virgin and little ones and women, shall ye slay utterly, but unto any man who hath upon him the mark, do not ye come near, and at my sanctuary, shall ye begin. So they began with the elder men. who were before the house.
7 Sa’an nan ya ce musu, “Ku ƙazantar da haikalin ku kuma cika filayen da kisassu. Ku tafi!” Saboda haka suka fita suka kuma fara kisa a duk birnin.
And he said unto them Defile ye the house and fill the courts with the slain, —go ye forth! So they went forth and smote in the city.
8 Yayinda suke kisan sai aka bar ni kaɗai, na fāɗi rubda ciki, na yi kuka na ce, “Kash, Ubangiji Mai Iko Duka! Za ka hallaka dukan raguwar Isra’ila a wannan zafin fushinka a Urushalima?”
And it came to pass, while they were smiting them—I being left remaining, that I fell upon my face and made outcry, and said Alas! My Lord. Yahweh art thou about to destroy all the remnant of Israel, in that thou art pouring out of thine indignation upon Jerusalem?
9 Ya amsa mini ya ce, “Zunubin gidan Isra’ila da Yahuda ya yi girma ainun; ƙasar ta cika da rashin adalci. Suna cewa, ‘Ubangiji ya yashe ƙasar; Ubangiji ba ya gani.’
And he said unto me the iniquity of the house of Israel and Judah, is exceeding, great, and the land is filled with shed blood, and the city is full of over-reaching, —for they have said. Yahweh hath forsaken the land, — and Yahweh doth not see.
10 Saboda haka ba zan dube su da tausayi ko kuwa in ƙyale su ba, amma zan kawo wa kansu abin da suka yi.”
Therefore as for even me, Mine eye shall not shield. Neither will I pity, — Their way upon their own head, have I rendered.
11 Sai mutumin da yana saye da lilin yake kuma rataye da jaka ƙunshe da kayan rubutu a gefensa ya mayar da magana, yana cewa, “Na yi yadda ka umarci ni.”
And lo! the man clothed in linen, having the ink-holder by his side, bringing back word saying, — I have done according to all which thou didst command me.
