< Ezekiel 37 >
1 Adda kaniak ti ima ni Yahweh, imbaonnak babaen iti Espiritu ni Yahweh, ket imbabanak iti tengnga ti maysa a tanap. Napno daytoy kadagiti tulang.
The LORD’s hand was on me, and he brought me out in the LORD’s Spirit, and set me down in the middle of the valley; and it was full of bones.
2 Ket impalubosna a labas-labasak dagitoy. Kitaem! Adu kadagitoy ti adda iti tanap. Ket kitaem! Namagada unay.
He caused me to pass by them all around; and behold, there were very many in the open valley, and behold, they were very dry.
3 Kinunana kaniak, “Anak ti tao, agbiag kadi manen dagitoy a tulang?” Isu a kinunak, “Apo a Yahweh, sika laeng ti makaammo!”
He said to me, “Son of man, can these bones live?” I answered, “Lord GOD, you know.”
4 Ket kinunana kaniak, “Agipadtoka kadagitoy a tulang ket ibagam kadagitoy, 'Namaga a tultulang! Dumngegkayo iti sao ni Yahweh.
Again he said to me, “Prophesy over these bones, and tell them, ‘You dry bones, hear the LORD’s word.
5 Kastoy ti kuna ti Apo a ni Yahweh kadagitoy a tulang: Kitaem! Mangiyegak iti espiritu kadakayo ket agbiagkayonto.
The Lord GOD says to these bones: “Behold, I will cause breath to enter into you, and you will live.
6 Mangikabilak kadagiti pennet ken ikkankayo iti lasag. Balkotenkayo iti kudil ken ikkankayo iti anges ket agbiagkayo. Ket maammoanyonto a siak ni Yahweh.'”
I will lay sinews on you, and will bring up flesh on you, and cover you with skin, and put breath in you, and you will live. Then you will know that I am the LORD.”’”
7 Isu a nagipadtoak a kas naibilin kaniak; kabayatan nga agipadpadtoak, adtoy, adda dimteng a daranudor ket naggingined. Ket nagsusuop dagiti tulang—tulang iti tulangna.
So I prophesied as I was commanded. As I prophesied, there was a noise, and behold, there was an earthquake. Then the bones came together, bone to its bone.
8 Kimmitaak ket adtoy, adda pennet kadagitoy. Adda lasag ken nabalkot dagitoy iti kudil! Ngem awan pay biag kadagitoy.
I saw, and, behold, there were sinews on them, and flesh came up, and skin covered them above; but there was no breath in them.
9 Ket kinuna ni Yahweh kaniak, “Agipadtoka iti angin! Agipadtoka anak ti tao, ket ibagam iti angin, 'Kastoy ti kuna ti Apo a ni Yahweh: Umayka manipud iti uppat nga angin, Espiritu! Ket angsam dagitoy a napapatay tapno agbiagda manen.'”
Then he said to me, “Prophesy to the wind, prophesy, son of man, and tell the wind, ‘The Lord GOD says: “Come from the four winds, breath, and breathe on these slain, that they may live.”’”
10 Isu a nagipadtoak a kas naibilin kaniak; immay ti Espiritu kadakuada ket nagbiagda! Ket timmakderda, maysa a dakkel unay nga armada!
So I prophesied as he commanded me, and the breath came into them, and they lived, and stood up on their feet, an exceedingly great army.
11 Ket kinuna ti Dios kaniak, “Anak ti tao, dagitoy a tulang ket isu ti entero a balay ti Israel. Kitaem! Ibagbagada, 'Namaga dagiti tulangtayo, ken napukawen ti namnamatayo. Naisinatayo para iti pannakadadael!'
Then he said to me, “Son of man, these bones are the whole house of Israel. Behold, they say, ‘Our bones are dried up, and our hope is lost. We are completely cut off.’
12 Ngarud, agipadtoka ket ibagam kadakuada, 'Kastoy ti kuna ti Apo a ni Yahweh: Kitaem! Lukatakto dagiti tanemyo ket irruarkayonto manipud kadagitoy, tattaok! Ket isublikayonto iti daga ti Israel!
Therefore prophesy, and tell them, ‘The Lord GOD says: “Behold, I will open your graves, and cause you to come up out of your graves, my people; and I will bring you into Eretz-Israel.
13 Ket maammoanyonto a siak ni Yahweh, inton lukatak dagiti tanemyo ken irruarkayo manipud kadagitoy, tattaok.
You will know that I am the LORD, when I have opened your graves and caused you to come up out of your graves, my people.
14 Itedkonto kadakayo ti Espirituk tapno agbiagkayo, ket paginanaenkayonto iti dagayo inton maammoanyo a siak ni Yahweh. Ipakaammok ket aramidekto daytoy—kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh.'”
I will put my Spirit in you, and you will live. Then I will place you in your own land; and you will know that I, the LORD, have spoken it and performed it,” says the LORD.’”
15 Kalpasanna, dimteng kaniak ti sao ni Yahweh a kunana,
The LORD’s word came again to me, saying,
16 “Ita, anak ti tao mangalaka iti maysa a ruting ket isuratmo iti daytoy, 'Para iti Juda ken kadagiti tattao ti Israel a kakaduana.' Ket mangalaka iti maysa pay a ruting ket isuratmo iti daytoy, 'Para kenni Jose, a sanga ti Efraim, ken para kadagiti amin a tattao ti Israel a kakaduada.
“You, son of man, take one stick and write on it, ‘For Judah, and for the children of Israel his companions.’ Then take another stick, and write on it, ‘For Joseph, the stick of Ephraim, and for all the house of Israel his companions.’
17 Alaem dagitoy ket pagbalinem a maymaysa a ruting tapno maymaysa dagitoy iti imam.
Then join them for yourself to one another into one stick, that they may become one in your hand.
18 No makisarita kenka dagiti tattaom a kunada, 'Saanmo kadi nga ibaga kadakami ti kayat a sawen dagitoy a banbanag?'
“When the children of your people speak to you, saying, ‘Won’t you show us what you mean by these?’
19 ket ibagam kadakuada, 'Kastoy ti kuna ti Apo a ni Yahweh, Kitaem! Alaek ti sanga ni Jose nga adda iti ima ni Efraim ken dagiti tribu ti Israel a kakaduana, ket itiponko daytoy iti sanga ti Juda, tapno agbalindanto a maymaysa a sanga, ket maymaysadanto iti imak!'
tell them, ‘The Lord GOD says: “Behold, I will take the stick of Joseph, which is in the hand of Ephraim, and the tribes of Israel his companions; and I will put them with it, with the stick of Judah, and make them one stick, and they will be one in my hand.
20 Ket iggamam dagiti sanga a sinuratam iti sangoananda.
The sticks on which you write will be in your hand before their eyes.”’
21 Ket ipakaammom kadakuada, 'Kastoy ti kuna ti Apo a ni Yahweh, Kitaem! Ngannganikon alaen dagiti tattao ti Israel manipud kadagiti nasion a napananda. Ummongekto ida manipud kadagiti daga iti aglawlaw. Ta ipankonto ida iti dagada.
Say to them, ‘The Lord GOD says: “Behold, I will take the children of Israel from amongst the nations where they have gone, and will gather them on every side, and bring them into their own land.
22 Aramidekto ida a maysa a nasion iti daga, kadagiti bantay ti Israel; ket addanto maysa nga ari a mangiturayto kadakuada amin, ket saandanton a dua a nasion; saandanton a mabingay iti dua a pagarian.
I will make them one nation in the land, on the mountains of Israel. One king will be king to them all. They will no longer be two nations. They won’t be divided into two kingdoms any more at all.
23 Ket saandanton a pulos a tulawan dagiti bagida babaen kadagiti didiosenda, kadagiti makarimon a banbanag ken kadagiti aniaman a dadduma a basolda. Ta isalakankonto ida manipud kadagiti awan serserbina nga aramidda a nakabasolanda, ket dalusakto ida, tapno agbalindanto a tattaok ket siakto ti Diosda.
They won’t defile themselves any more with their idols, nor with their detestable things, nor with any of their transgressions; but I will save them out of all their dwelling places in which they have sinned, and will cleanse them. So they will be my people, and I will be their God.
24 Ni David nga adipenko ti agbalinto nga arida. Isu nga addanto maysa nga agipastor kadakuada amin, ket agbiagdanto segun kadagiti paglintegak ket salimetmetandanto dagiti alagadek ken tungpalendanto dagitoy.
“‘“My servant David will be king over them. They all will have one shepherd. They will also walk in my ordinances and observe my statutes, and do them.
25 Agnaeddanto iti daga nga intedko iti adipenko a ni Jacob, iti lugar a nagnaedan dagiti ammayo. Agnaeddanto iti daytoy iti agnanayon—isuda, dagiti annakda, ken dagiti appokoda, ta ni David nga adipenko ti agbalinto a panguloda iti agnanayon.
They will dwell in the land that I have given to Jacob my servant, in which your fathers lived. They will dwell therein, they, and their children, and their children’s children, forever. David my servant will be their prince forever.
26 Mangaramidakto iti katulagan a pakikappia kadakuada. Agbalinto daytoy a katulagan nga agnanayon kadakuada. Alaen ken paaduekto ida ket isaadkonto ti nasantoan a lugarko iti tengngada iti agnanayon.
Moreover I will make a covenant of peace with them. It will be an everlasting covenant with them. I will place them, multiply them, and will set my sanctuary amongst them forever more.
27 Addanto kadakuada ti lugar a pagnanaedak; siakto ti Diosda ket isudanto dagiti tattaok!
My tent also will be with them. I will be their God, and they will be my people.
28 Ket maammoanto dagiti nasion a siak ni Yahweh, a nangidatag iti Israel iti bagik, inton addanto iti tengngada ti nasantoan a lugarko iti agnanayon!'”
The nations will know that I am the LORD who sanctifies Israel, when my sanctuary is amongst them forever more.”’”
