Zekaraya 5
1 Ọzọkwa, eleliri m anya elu, ma hụ akwụkwọ a fụkọrọ afụkọ nke na-efegharị efegharị.
And I turn back, and lift up my eyes, and look, and behold, a flying scroll.
2 Ọ sịrị m, “Gịnị ka ị na-ahụ?” Azara m, “Ahụrụ m akwụkwọ a fụkọrọ afụkọ nke na-efegharị efegharị. Ogologo ya dị mita iri, obosara ya dịkwa mita ise.”
And he says to me, “What are you seeing?” And I say, “I am seeing a flying scroll, its length [is] twenty by the cubit, and its breadth [is] ten by the cubit.”
3 Ọ gwara m, “Nke a bụ ọbụbụ ọnụ nke na-apụ na-ejezu nʼala ahụ niile. Nʼihi na dịka e si detuo ya, nʼotu akụkụ ya, a ga-esi nʼala a chụpụ ndị na-ezu ohi. Dịka e si deekwa ya nʼakụkụ nke ọzọ ya, onye ọ bụla na-aṅụ iyi ụgha ka a ga-esitekwa nʼala ahụ chụpụ.
And he says to me, “This [is] the execration that is going forth over the face of all the land, for everyone who is stealing, on the one side, according to it, has been declared innocent, and everyone who has sworn, on the other side, according to it, has been declared innocent.”
4 Ezipụla m ya, otu a ka Onyenwe anyị, Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile kwubiri, ‘Ọ ga-abanye nʼụlọ onye ọ bụla na-ezu ohi, na nʼụlọ ndị ji aha m na-aṅụ iyi ụgha. Ọ ga-anọgide nʼụlọ ahụ mebie ya kpamkpam. Ọ ga-emebi osisi na nkume niile e ji wuo ụlọ ahụ.’”
“I have brought it out,” a declaration of YHWH of Hosts, “and it has come into the house of the thief, and into the house of him who has sworn in My Name with a falsehood, and it has remained in the midst of his house, and has consumed it, both its wood and its stones.”
5 Mgbe ahụ, mmụọ ozi ahụ na-agwa m okwu bịakwutere m sị, “Lelie anya gị elu hụrụ ihe na-aga ịpụta ìhè.”
And the messenger who is speaking with me goes forth and says to me, “Now lift up your eyes, and [do you] see what this [is] that is coming forth?”
6 Asịrị m, “Gịnị ka ọ bụ?” Ọ sịrị, “Ọ bụ nkata.” O kwukwara, “Nke a bụ mmehie nke ndị niile bi nʼala a.”
And I say, “What [is] it?” And he says, “This—the ephah that is coming forth.” And he says, “This [is] their aspect in all the land.
7 Ngwangwa, e kpughepụrụ okwuchi nkata ahụ, ma lee, ahụrụ m otu nwanyị nọdụrụ ọdụ nʼime ya.
And behold, a disc of lead lifted up; and this [is] a woman sitting in the midst of the ephah.”
8 Ọ sịrị, “Nke a bụ ajọ omume.” O nughachiri ya azụ nʼime nkata ahụ werekwa okwuchi nkata ahụ kpuchie ya.
And he says, “This [is] the wicked woman.” And he casts her into the midst of the ephah, and casts the weight of lead on its mouth.
9 Mgbe ahụ, eleliri m anya hụ ụmụ nwanyị abụọ ọzọ, ndị ikuku na-efe nku ha. Ha nwere nku dịka nku ụgbala. Ha buliri nkata ahụ elu nʼetiti eluigwe na ala.
And I lift up my eyes, and see, and behold, two women are coming forth, and wind [is] in their wings; and they have wings like wings of the stork, and they lift up the ephah between the earth and the heavens.
10 Ajụrụ m mmụọ ozi ahụ na-agwa m okwu, “Ebee ka ha bu nkata ahụ na-aga?”
And I say to the messenger who is speaking with me, “To where [are] they causing the ephah to go?”
11 Ọ gwara m, “Ha bu ya na-aga Babilọn ebe ha ga-ewuru ya ụlọ. Mgbe ha wuchara ụlọ ahụ, ha ga-adọba nkata ahụ nʼelu ihe ndọkwasị.”
And he says to me, “To build a house for it in the land of Shinar.” And it has been prepared and has been placed there on its base.
