< Ezekiel 22 >
1 Kalpasanna, immay kaniak ti sao ni Yahweh a kunana,
And the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,
2 “Ita, sika nga anak ti tao, mangikeddengkanto kadi? Kedngamto kadi ti siudad ti dara? Ipakaammon kenkuana dagiti amin a makarimon nga inar-aramidna.
And thou, son of man, wilt thou take to task, wilt thou take to task the city of blood? and wilt thou make her know all her abominations?
3 Masapul nga ibagam, ‘Kastoy ti kuna ti Apo a ni Yahweh: Daytoy a siudad ket nangpasayasay iti dara iti tengngana isu a dimtengen ti tiempona; maysa a siudad a nangaramid kadagiti didiosen tapno tulawanna ti bagina!
Then say thou, Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, O city that sheddeth blood in her midst, that her time [of sorrow] may come, and that hath made idols for herself to become unclean:
4 Nakabasolka gapu iti dara a pinasayasaymo, ken nagbalinka a narugit babaen kadagiti didiosen nga inaramidmo! Ta pinaasidegmon dagiti aldawmo ket dimtengen dagiti maudi a tawenmo. Isu a pagbalinenkanto a pagkakatawaan dagiti dadduma a nasion ken malalais iti imatang ti tunggal daga.
Through thy blood which thou hast shed, are thou become guilty; and through thy idols which thou hast made art thou become unclean; and thou hast caused thy days [of destruction] to draw near, and thou art come even unto thy years; therefore do I make thee a disgrace unto the nations, and a mocking to all the countries.
5 Agpadanto a laisendaka dagiti adda iti asidegmo ken dagiti adda iti adayom, sika a natulawan a siudad, nga agdindinamag iti sadinnoman gapu ta napnoan iti riribuk!’
Those who are near, and those who are far from thee, shall mock thee, O thou unclean in name, and great in confusion!
6 Kitaem, immay kenka dagiti mangiturturay iti Israel, tunggal maysa babaen iti bukodna a bileg tapno agpasayasay iti dara!
Behold, the princes of Israel were each [ready] with his arm within thee, in order to shed blood.
7 Saanda a rinaem dagiti amma ken inna nga adda kenka, ken indadanesda dagiti ganggannaet nga adda kenka. Ginundawayanda dagiti ulila ken dagiti balo nga adda kenka.
Father and mother they esteemed lightly within thee, toward the stranger they acted with extortion in the midst of thee, the fatherless and the widow they oppressed within thee.
8 Inuyawmo dagiti nasantoan a banbanag a kukuak ken saanmo a nginilin ti Aldaw a Panaginana!
My holy things thou didst despise, and my sabbaths thou didst profane.
9 Immay kenka dagiti lallaki a managpardaya tapno agpasayasay iti dara, ket nanganda iti ayan dagiti banbantay. Nangaramidda kadagiti kinadangkes iti katengngaam!
Tale-bearers [also] were within thee, in order to shed blood; and upon the mountains did they eat within thee; incest did they commit in the midst of thee.
10 Makitkita kenka ti kinalamo-lamo ti maysa nga ama. Ginundawayanda ti natulawan a babai nga adda kenka kabayatan iti panagbinulanna.
Their father's nakedness they uncovered within thee; her that was unclean in her separation did they violate within thee.
11 Lallaki a makikamkamalala kadagiti assawa ti kaarrubana, ken lallaki a mangtulaw kadagiti bukodda a manugang a babbai; lallaki a manggunggundaway kadagiti bukodda a kabsat a babbai, babbai a putot a mismo dagiti bukodda nga ama—amin dagitoy ket adda kenka.
And one with his neighbor's wife did commit abomination; and another did defile his daughter-in-law with incest; and another did violate his sister, the daughter of his father, within thee.
12 Nangpasuksok dagitoy a lallaki kadayo tapno agpasayasay iti dara. Pinaanakam iti dakkel ti pautangmo, dinadaelmo dagiti kaarrubam babaen iti panangidadanesmo kadakuada, ken linipatnak—kastoy ti pakaammo ti Apo a ni Yahweh.
Bribes they took within thee, in order to shed blood; interest and increase didst thou take, and thou didst acquire gain off thy neighbors by extortion: and me thou didst forget, saith the Lord Eternal.
13 Isu a kitaem! Babaen iti imak, tippayek dagiti nagun-odmo babaen iti panagul-ulbodmo, ken ti panangpasayasay iti dara nga adda iti tengngam.
And behold, I have struck my hands together at thy wrongful gain which thou hast acquired, and at thy blood-guilt which hath been in the midst of thee.
14 Nakiredto pay kadi ti pusom, napigsanto pay kadi dagiti imam kadagiti aldaw inton Siak a mismo ti mangdusanto kenka? Siak a ni Yahweh, ipakpakaammok daytoy, ket aramidekto daytoy.
Will thy courage endure, or will thy hands remain strong, on the days that I will deal with thee? I the Lord have spoken, and will do it.
15 Isu nga iwarawarakanto kadagiti nasion ken iwaraskanto iti entero a daga. Iti kastoy a wagas ti panangdaluskonto iti kinarugitmo.
And I will scatter thee among the nations, and disperse thee in the countries, and I will entirely remove thy uncleanness out of thee.
16 Isu nga agbalinkanto a narugit iti imatang dagiti nasion. Ket maammoamto a Siak ni Yahweh!”
And thou shalt be degraded through thyself before the eyes of nations, and thou shalt know that I am the Lord.
17 Adda pay sao ni Yahweh nga immay kaniak a kunana,
And the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,
18 “Anak ti tao, ti balay ti Israel ket nagbalinen a kasla rugit iti imatangko. Aminda ket kasla da la natda a bronse, lata, landok ken buli iti tengngam. Agbalindanto a kasla rugit ti pirak iti urnom.
Son of man, the house of Israel are become to me dross: they all are copper, and tin, and iron, and lead, in the midst of the furnace; the dross of silver are they become.
19 Isu a kastoy ti kuna ti Apo a ni Yahweh, ‘Gapu ta aminkayo ket nagbalinen a kasla rugit, ngarud dumngegkayo! Ummongenkayonto iti tengnga ti Jerusalem.
Therefore thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Because ye are all become dross, therefore, behold, I will gather you into the midst of Jerusalem.
20 Runawenkayonto a kasla naurnong a pirak, bronse, landok, buli ken lata iti tengnga ti urno a rumbeng a puyotan iti apuy. Isu nga ummungenkayonto gapu iti nakaro a pungtot ken ungetko. Ikabilkayonto sadiay ket puyotak ti apuy daytoy tapno marunawkayo; isu nga ummungenkayonto gapu iti unget ken iti pungtotko, ket ikabilkayonto sadiay ket ibukbokkayo.
As silver, and copper, and iron, and lead, and tin are gathered into the midst of the furnace, to blow the fire upon it, to melt it: so will I gather you in my anger and in my fury and I will lay you down there, and melt you.
21 Isu nga ummongenkayonto ket ipuyotko kadakayo ti apuy ti pungtotko tapno marunawkayo iti tengngana.
Yea, I will assemble you in a heap, and blow upon you with the fire of my wrath, and ye shall be melted in the midst of it.
22 Kas iti pannakarunaw ti pirak iti tengnga ti maysa nga urno, marunawkanto met iti tengngana, ket maammoamto a Siak a ni Yahweh, ket indissuorko ti nakaro a pungtotko kenka!”’
As silver is melted in the midst of the furnace, so shall ye be melted in the midst of it: and ye shall know that I am the Lord who have poured out my fury over you.
23 Immay kaniak ti sao ni Yahweh a kunana,
And the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,
24 “Anak ti tao, ibagam kenkuana, “Sika ket daga a saan a nadalusan. Awanto ti tudo iti aldaw ti nakaro a pungtot!
Son of man, say unto her, Thou art a land that is not cleansed; [and] which is not rained upon on the day of indignation.
25 Nalimed a nagtutulag dagiti profetana iti tengngana, a kaslada agngerngernger a leon a mangrangrangkay iti biktimana; patpatayenda dagiti tattao ken alaenda dagiti agkakapateg a kinabaknangda! Adu ti pinagbalinda a balo iti tengngana!
The banded troop of her prophets in the midst of her is like a roaring lion that teareth in pieces the prey: souls do they devour; wealth and precious things do they take away; the number of her widows do they increase in the midst of her.
26 Linabsing dagiti papadina ti lintegko, ken tinulawanda dagiti nasantoan a banbanag a kukuak. Saanda a mailasin ti nagdumaan dagiti nasantoan a banbanag kadagiti makarimon a banbanag, ken saanda nga isuro ti nagdumaan ti saan a nadalus ken ti nadalus. Saanda a ngilinen ti Aldaw iti Panaginana isu a natulawanak iti nagtengngaanda!
Her priests violate my law, and profane my holy things: between the holy and profane do they make no distinction, and the difference between the unclean and the clean do they not make known, and from [the violation of] my sabbaths do they turn away their eyes, so that I am profaned among them.
27 Dagiti prinsipena ket kaslada lobo a mangrangrangkay kadagiti biktimada. Agpasayasayda iti dara ken agdaddadaelda iti biag, tapno agpabaknangda babaen iti panagulbodda.
Her princes in her midst are like wolves that tear in pieces the prey, to shed blood, to destroy souls, in order to obtain selfish gain.
28 Ket arigna a pininturan ida dagiti profetana iti puraw; inuulbod dagiti makitada a sirmata ken agipadtoda iti inuulbod kadakuada. Ibagada “Kastoy ti kuna ti Apo a ni Yahweh” idinto ta saan a sinao ni Yahweh!
And her prophets plastered for them with unadhesive mortar, foreseeing falsehood, and divining unto them lies, saying, Thus hath said the Lord Eternal; when the Lord had not spoken.
29 Nangidadanes dagiti tattao iti daga babaen iti panagkikil ken nagsamsamda babaen iti panagtakaw, ken ginundawayanda dagiti nakurapay ken agkasapulan, ken indadanesda nga awanan iti hustisia dagiti ganggannaet.
The people of the land are guilty of extortion, and practise robbery, and the poor and the needy they defraud: and they extort from the stranger with injustice.
30 Isu a nangbirukak iti maysa a tao manipud kadakuada a mabalin a mangbangon iti pader ken mangipatakder iti nadadael a paset ti pader iti sangoanak a mangisakit iti daga tapno saanko a dadaelen daytoy, ngem awan nabirukak nga uray maysa.
And I seek now among them for a man, that could erect a fence, and stand in the breach before me in behalf of the land, so that I should not destroy it; but I find none.
31 Isu nga idissuorko kadakuada ti nakaro a pungtotko! Gibusak ida babaen iti apuy ti pungtotko ket isublik kadagiti mismo nga uloda dagiti dakes a wagasda—kastoy ti pakaammo ti Apo a ni Yahweh.”’
And I therefore pour out over them my indignation; with the fire of my wrath do I make an end of them: their own way do I bring upon their head, saith the Lord Eternal.
