< Ezekiel 20 >
1 Napasamak nga iti maikapito a tawen, iti maikasangapulo nga aldaw iti maikalima a bulan, immay dagiti panglakayen ti Israel tapno makiumanda kenni Yahweh ket nagtugawda iti sangoanak.
And it came to pass in the seventh year, in the fifth month, the tenth day of the month, that certain of the elders of Israel came to inquire of Jehovah, and sat before me.
2 Ket nagsao ni Yahweh kaniak a kunana,
And the word of Jehovah came to me, saying,
3 “Anak ti tao, ipakaammom kadagiti panglakayen ti Israel a kunam, 'Kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh nga Apo: Immaykayo kadi tapno agsaludsod kaniak? Iti naganko a sibibiag a Dios, saandak a mapagsaludsodan! —kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh nga Apo.'
Son of man, speak to the elders of Israel, and say to them, Thus says the lord Jehovah: Is it to inquire of me that ye have come? As I live, says the lord Jehovah, I will not be inquired of by you.
4 Ukomem kadi ida? Mangukomka kadi anak ti tao? Ipakaammom kadakuada dagiti kinadakes dagiti ammada!
Will thou judge them, son of man, will thou judge them? Cause them to know the abominations of their fathers,
5 Ibagam kadakuada, 'Kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh nga Apo: Iti aldaw a pinilik ti Israel ket intayagko ti imak tapno agsapataak kadagiti kaputotan ti balay ni Jacob, ken impakaammok ti bagik kadakuada iti daga ti Egipto. Idi intayagko ti imak tapno agsapataak kadakuada, kinunak, “Siak ni Yahweh a Diosyo”—
and say to them, Thus says the lord Jehovah: In the day when I chose Israel, and swore to the seed of the house of Jacob, and made myself known to them in the land of Egypt, when I swore to them, saying, I am Jehovah your God,
6 iti dayta nga aldaw ket intayagko ti imak tapno isapatak kadakuada nga iruarko ida iti daga ti Egipto ket ipanko ida iti daga a pinilik a nasayaat para kadakuada. Daga daytoy nga agay-ayus iti gatas ken diro; isu ti kapipintasan a daga kadagiti amin a daga!
I swore to them in that day, to bring them forth out of the land of Egypt into a land that I had searched out for them, flowing with milk and honey, which is the glory of all lands.
7 Kinunak kadakuada, “Tunggal maysa ket ibellengna dagiti makarimon a banbanag a daydayawenna ken dagiti didiosen ti Egipto. Saanyo a rugitan dagiti bagbagiyo; Siak ni Yahweh a Diosyo.”
And I said to them, Cast ye away every man the abominations of his eyes, and do not defile yourselves with the idols of Egypt. I am Jehovah your God.
8 Ngem nagrebeldeda kaniak ket saanda kayat ti dumngeg kaniak. Saan nga imbelleng ti tunggal maysa dagiti makarimon a banbanag a daydayawenna wenno binaybay-an dagiti didiosen ti Egipto, isu nga inkeddengko nga ibuyatko ti pungtotko kadakuada tapno mapnek ti ungetko kadakuada iti daga ti Egipto.
But they rebelled against me, and would not hearken to me. They did not every man cast away the abominations of their eyes, nor did they forsake the idols of Egypt. Then I said I would pour out my wrath upon them, to accomplish my anger against them in the midst of the land of Egypt.
9 Nagtignayak gapu iti naganko tapno saan a matulawan daytoy iti imatang dagiti nasion a pagnanaedanda. Impakaammok ti bagik kadakuada, iti imatangda, babaen iti panangiruarko kadakuada iti daga ti Egipto.
But I worked for my name's sake (that it should not be profaned in the sight of the nations, among which they were, in whose sight I made myself known to them) in bringing them forth out of the land of Egypt.
10 Isu nga inruarko ida iti daga ti Egipto ket impanko ida iti let-ang.
So I caused them to go forth out of the land of Egypt, and brought them into the wilderness.
11 Kalpasanna, intedko kadakuada dagiti alagadek ken impakaammok kadakuada dagiti lintegko, a pagbiagan ti maysa a tao no agtulnog kadagitoy.
And I gave them my statutes, and showed them my ordinances, which if a man does, he shall live in them.
12 Intedko met kadakuada ti Aldaw a Panaginana a kas pagilasinan iti nagbaetanmi, tapno maammoanda a Siak ni Yahweh a nangidaton kadakuada kaniak.
Moreover I also gave them my sabbaths, to be a sign between me and them, that they might know that I am Jehovah who sanctifies them.
13 Ngem nagrebelde kaniak ti balay ti Israel idi addada iti let-ang. Saanda a nagtulnog kadagiti alagadek; ngem ketdi, linaksidda dagiti lintegko, a pagbiagan ti maysa a tao no agtulnog kadagitoy. Tinulawanda iti kasta unay ti Aldaw a Panaginana, isu a kinunak nga ibuyatko ti pungtotko kadakuada iti let-ang tapno mapapatayda.
But the house of Israel rebelled against me in the wilderness. They did not walk in my statutes, and they rejected my ordinances, which if a man keeps, he shall live in them. And they greatly profaned my sabbaths. Then I said I would pour out my wrath upon them in the wilderness, to consume them.
14 Ngem nagtignayak gapu iti naganko tapno saan a matulawan daytoy iti imatang dagiti nasion a nakaimatang iti panangiruarko kadakuada iti Egipto.
But I worked for my name's sake, that it should not be profaned in the sight of the nations, in whose sight I brought them out.
15 Isu nga intag-ayko manen ti imak tapno isapatak kadakuada idiay let-ang a saanko ida nga ipan iti daga nga itedko kadakuada, daga nga agay-ayus iti gatas ken diro, nga isu ti kapipintasan a daga kadagiti amin a daga.
Moreover also I swore to them in the wilderness, that I would not bring them into the land which I had given them, flowing with milk and honey, which is the glory of all lands,
16 Insapatak daytoy gapu ta linaksidda dagiti lintegko ken saanda a nagtulnog kadagiti alagadek, ken tinulawanda ti Aldaw a Panaginana, agsipud ta sinurot dagiti pusoda dagiti didiosenda.
because they rejected my ordinances, and did not walk in my statutes, and profaned my sabbaths, for their heart went after their idols.
17 Ngem naasi dagiti matak kadakuada gapu iti pannakadadaelda, isu a saanko ida a pinukaw idiay let-ang.
Nevertheless my eye spared them, and I did not destroy them, nor did I make a full end of them in the wilderness.
18 Kinunak kadagiti annakda a lallaki ken babbai idiay let-ang, “Saankayo nga agtulnog kadagiti alagaden dagiti nagannakyo; saanyo a tungpalen dagiti lintegda wenno tulawan dagiti bagbagiyo babaen kadagiti didiosen.
And I said to their sons in the wilderness, Walk ye not in the statutes of your fathers. Neither observe their ordinances, nor defile yourselves with their idols.
19 Siak ni Yahweh a Diosyo! Agtulnogkayo kadagiti alagadek; tungpalenyo dagiti bilinko ken agtulnogkayo kadagitoy!
I am Jehovah your God. Walk in my statutes, and keep my ordinances, and do them,
20 Ngilinenyo ti Aldaw a Panaginana tapno agbalinto daytoy a pagilasinan iti nagbaetantayo, tapno maammoanyo a Siak ni Yahweh a Diosyo.”
and hallow my sabbaths, and they shall be a sign between me and you, that ye may know that I am Jehovah your God.
21 Ngem nagrebelde kaniak dagiti annakda a lallaki ken babbai. Saanda a nagtulnog kadagiti alagadek wenno tinungpal dagiti bilinko, a pagbiagan ti maysa a tao no agtulnog kadagitoy. Tinulawanda ti Aldaw a Panaginana, isu nga inkeddengko nga ibuyatko ti pungtotko kadakuada idiay let-ang.
But the sons rebelled against me. They did not walk in my statutes, nor kept my ordinances to do them, which if a man does, he shall live in them. They profaned my sabbaths. Then I said I would pour out my wrath upon them, to accomplish my anger against them in the wilderness.
22 Ngem inggawidko ti imak ket nagtignayak gapu iti naganko, tapno saan a matulawan iti imatang dagiti nasion a nakaimatang iti panangiruarko kadagiti Israelita idiay Egipto.
Nevertheless I withdrew my hand, and worked for my name's sake, that it should not be profaned in the sight of the nations, in whose sight I brought them forth.
23 Intag-ayko manen ti imak idiay let-ang, tapno isapatak kadakuada nga iwarasko ida kadagiti nasion ken iwarawarak ida kadagiti daga.
Moreover I swore to them in the wilderness, that I would scatter them among the nations, and disperse them through the countries,
24 Inkeddengko nga aramidek daytoy agsipud ta saanda a nagtulnog kadagiti lintegko, ken agsipud ta linaksidda dagiti alagadek ken tinulawanda ti Aldaw a Panaginana. Tartarigagayan dagiti matada dagiti didiosen dagiti nagannakda.
because they had not executed my ordinances, but had rejected my statutes, and had profaned my sabbaths, and their eyes were after their fathers' idols.
25 Kalpasanna, inikkak pay ida kadagiti saan a nasayaat nga alagaden, ken kadagiti linteg a saan a makaited iti biag.
Moreover I also gave them statutes that were not good, and ordinances in which they will not live.
26 Pinagbalinko ida a narugit babaen kadagiti sagutda, idi pinuoranda ti tunggal inauna nga anak dagiti babbai. Inaramidko daytoy tapno pagbutngek ida tapno maammoanda a Siak ni Yahweh!'
And I polluted them in their own gifts, in that they caused to pass through the fire all that opens the womb, that I might make them desolate, to the end that they might know that I am Jehovah.
27 Ngarud, anak ti tao, ipakaammom daytoy iti balay ti Israel; ibagam kadakuada, 'Kastoy ni Yahweh nga Apo: Tinabbaawandak dagiti nagannakyo babaen iti panangpanawda kaniak. Inaramidda daytoy iti kastoy a wagas:
Therefore, son of man, speak to the house of Israel, and say to them, Thus says the lord Jehovah: In this moreover your fathers have blasphemed me, in that they have committed a trespass against me.
28 idi impanko ida iti daga nga insapatak nga itedko kadakuada, idi nakitada dagiti amin a nangangato a turod ken dagiti narukbos a kayo, ket sadiay ti nangidatonanda kadagiti sakripisioda ket pinagpungtotdak babaen iti panangidatonda sadiay. Sadiay met ti nangpuoranda kadagiti nabanglo nga insenso ken nangibukbokanda kadagiti datonda a mainum.
For when I had brought them into the land, which I swore to give to them, then they saw every high hill, and every thick tree, and they offered there their sacrifices, and there they presented the provocation of their offering. There also they made their sweet savor, and they poured out there their drink offerings.
29 Ket sinaludsodko kadakuada, “Ania aya daytoy a nangato a lugar a pangium-umayanyo kadagiti datonyo?” Isu a napanaganan iti Bamah ti bantay agingga ita nga aldaw.'
Then I said to them, What does the high place to which ye go mean? So the name of it is called Bamah to this day.
30 Ibagam ngarud iti balay ti Israel, 'Kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh nga Apo: Apay aya a rugitanyo dagiti bagbagiyo babaen iti panangtuladyo kadagiti aramid dagiti nagannakyo? Ken apay aya nga agtigtignaykayo a kasla balangkantis, nga agbirbirok kadagiti makarimon a banbanag?
Therefore say to the house of Israel, Thus says the lord Jehovah: Do ye pollute yourselves according to the manner of your fathers, and play ye the harlot according to their abominations?
31 Ta idi indatonyo dagiti sagutyo ken pinuoranyo dagiti annakyo a lallaki, rinugitanyo dagiti bagbagiyo gapu kadagiti amin a didiosenyo agingga iti daytoy agdama nga aldaw. Isu a rumbeng kadi a mapagsaludsodandak, O balay ti Israel? Iti naganko a sibibiag a Dios—kastoy ti pakaammo ti Apo a ni Yahweh—saandak a mapagsaludsodan!
And when ye offer your gifts, when ye make your sons to pass through the fire, do ye pollute yourselves with all your idols to this day? And shall I be inquired of by you, O house of Israel? As I live, says the lord Jehovah, I will not be inquired of by you.
32 Pumudnonto dagiti panpanunotenyo. Kunayo, “Agbalintayo a kasla kadagiti dadduma a nasion, a kasla kadagiti puli kadagiti dadduma a daga nga agdaydayaw iti kayo ken bato!”
And that which comes into your mind shall not be at all, in that ye say, We will be as the nations, as the families of the countries, to serve wood and stone.
33 Iti naganko a sibibiag a Dios—kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh nga Apo—awan duadua nga iturayankayonto babaen iti nabileg nga imak ken nakaunnat a takkiagko, ken iti pungtotko a maibuyatto kadakayo!
As I live, says the lord Jehovah, surely with a mighty hand, and with an outstretched arm, and with wrath poured out, I will be king over you.
34 Iruarkayonto manipud kadagiti dadduma a tattao ken ummongenkayonto manipud kadagiti pagilian a nakaiwarawaraanyo. Aramidekto daytoy babaen iti nabileg nga imak ken iti pungtotko a maibuyat.
And I will bring you out from the peoples, and will gather you out of the countries in which ye are scattered, with a mighty hand, and with an outstretched arm, and with wrath poured out,
35 Kalpasanna, ipankayonto iti let-ang dagiti tattao, ket sadiayto ti pangukomak kadakayo iti rupanrupa.
and I will bring you into the wilderness of the peoples. And there I will enter into judgment with you face to face.
36 Kas iti panangukomko kadagiti ammayo idiay let-ang iti daga ti Egipto, kastanto met ti panangukomko kadakayo! —kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh nga Apo.
Just as I entered into judgment with your fathers in the wilderness of the land of Egypt, so I will enter into judgment with you, says the lord Jehovah.
37 Paglasatenkayonto iti baba ti sarukodko, ken isinggalutkayonto iti tulag;
And I will cause you to pass under the rod. And I will bring you into the bond of the covenant.
38 Ikkatekto kadakayo dagiti nasukir ken dagiti mangsalsalungasing kaniak. Iruarkonto ida iti daga a pagnanaedanda a kas ganggannaet, ngem saandanto a sumrek iti daga ti Israel. Iti kasta, maammoanyonto a Siak ni Yahweh!
And I will purge out from among you the rebels, and those who transgress against me. I will bring them forth out of the land where they sojourn, but they shall not enter into the land of Israel. And ye shall know that I am Jehovah.
39 Isu a kenka, balay ti Israel, kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh nga Apo: Tunggal maysa kadakayo ket mapan kadagiti bukodna a didiosen. Agdayawkayo kadagitoy no saanyo kayat a dumngeg kaniak, ngem nasken a saanyon a tulawan ti nasantoan a naganko babaen kadagiti sagutyo ken kadagiti didiosenyo.
As for you, O house of Israel, thus says the lord Jehovah: Go ye. Serve each one his idols, and hereafter also, if ye will not hearken to me. But ye shall no more profane my holy name with your gifts, and with your idols.
40 Ta iti nasantoan a bantayko, iti tapaw ti bantay ti Israel—kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh nga Apo—dayawendakto sadiay ti amin a balay ti Israel nga adda iti daga. Maragsakanakto a mangkiddaw kadagiti datonyo sadiay, ken kasta met kadagiti umuna a bunga ti sagutyo agraman dagiti amin a nasantoan a kukuayo.
For in my holy mountain, in the mountain of the height of Israel, says the lord Jehovah, there shall all the house of Israel, all of them, serve me in the land. There I will accept them, and there I will require your offerings, and the first-fruits of your oblations, with all your holy things.
41 Awatenkayonto a kas iti nabanglo nga insenso inton iruarkayo manipud kadagiti tattao ken ummongenkayo manipud kadagiti pagilian a nakaiwarawaraanyo. Ipakitakto a nasantoanak kadakayo tapno makita dagiti nasion.
I will accept you as a sweet savor when I bring you out from the peoples, and gather you out of the countries in which ye have been scattered. And I will be sanctified in you in the sight of the nations.
42 Kalpasanna, inton ipankayo iti daga ti Israel, iti daga nga insapatak nga ited kadagiti nagannakyo, maammoanyonto a siak ni Yahweh.
And ye shall know that I am Jehovah when I shall bring you into the land of Israel, into the country which I swore to give to your fathers.
43 Ket malagipyonto dagiti dakes a wagasyo ken ti amin nga aramidyo a namagbalin kadakayo a narugit, ket kagurayonto dagiti bagbagiyo iti bukodyo met laeng a panagkita gapu kadagiti amin a dakes nga inaramidyo.
And there ye shall remember your ways, and all your doings, by which ye have polluted yourselves. And ye shall loathe yourselves in your own sight for all your evils that ye have committed.
44 Maammoanyonto ngarud a siak ni Yahweh inton aramidek daytoy kadakayo gapu iti naganko, saan a gapu kadagiti dakes a wagasyo wenno kadagiti narugit nga aramidyo, O balay ti Israel! —kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh nga Apo.'”
And ye shall know that I am Jehovah when I have dealt with you for my name's sake, not according to your evil ways, nor according to your corrupt doings, O ye house of Israel, says the lord Jehovah.
45 Ket nagsao ni Yahweh kaniak a kunana,
And the word of Jehovah came to me, saying,
46 “Anak ti tao, sumangoka kadagiti akin-abagatan a daga, ket agsaoka maibusor iti abagatan; agipadtoka maibusor iti kabakiran ti Negeb.
Son of man, set thy face toward the south, and drop thy word toward the south, and prophesy against the forest of the field in the South.
47 Ibagam iti kabakiran ti Negeb, 'Denggem ti pakaammo ni Yahweh! Kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh nga Apo: Kitaem, mangpasgedakto iti apuy kenka. Uramento daytoy ti amin a nalangto a kayo ken ti amin a nagango a kayo nga adda kadakayo. Saanto a maiddep ti sumsumged nga apuy; mapuoranto ti tunggal rupa manipud iti abagatan agingga iti amianan.
And say to the forest of the South, Hear the word of Jehovah. Thus says the lord Jehovah: Behold, I will kindle a fire in thee, and it shall devour every green tree in thee, and every dry tree. The flaming flame shall not be quenched, and all faces from the south to the north shall be burnt by it.
48 Ket makitanto ti amin a lasag a siak ni Yahweh inton pasgedak ti apuy, ken saanto a maiddep daytoy.'”
And all flesh shall see that I, Jehovah, have kindled it. It shall not be quenched.
49 Ket kinunak, “O Apo a Yahweh, kunkunada kaniak, 'Saan aya a mannanao laeng isuna kadagiti pangngarig?'”
Then I said, Ah lord Jehovah! They say of me, Is he not a speaker of parables?
