< Ezekiel 4 >

1 “Ngem sika, anak ti tao, mangalaka iti ladrilio ket ikabilmo daytoy iti sangoanam. Ket iti rabaw daytoy, ikur-itmo ti siudad ti Jerusalem.
"You also, son of man, take a tile, and lay it before yourself, and portray on it a city, even Jerusalem:
2 Ket mangikabilka iti manglakub iti daytoy, ken mangipatakderka kadagiti sarikedked a maibusor iti daytoy. Mangikabilka iti pagkalay-atan dagiti kabusor ken mangaramidka kadagiti kampo iti aglikmut daytoy. Mangikabilka iti sinan-maso a pagrakrak iti aglawlaw daytoy.
and lay siege against it, and build forts against it, and cast up a mound against it; set camps also against it, and plant battering rams against it all around.
3 Ket mangalaka iti landok a pariok, ket aramatem daytoy a kas landok a bakud iti nagbaetan ti bagim ken ti siudad. Sumangoka a makaung-unget iti siudad, ta malakubto daytoy. Isu a mangikabilka iti manglakub iti daytoy! Agpaayto daytoy a pagilasinan iti balay ti Israel.
Take for yourself an iron pan, and set it for a wall of iron between you and the city: and set your face toward it, and it shall be besieged, and you shall lay siege against it. This shall be a sign to the house of Israel.
4 Kalpasanna, agiddaka nga agsikig iti kannigidmo ket lak-amem ti basol ti balay ti Israel; baklayemto ti basolda segun iti bilang dagiti aldaw a nakaiddaka maibusor iti balay ti Israel.
"Moreover lie on your left side, and lay the iniquity of the house of Israel on it; according to the number of the days that you shall lie on it, you shall bear their iniquity.
5 Tinudinganka iti maysa aldaw a katukad iti tunggal tawen a pannakadusada: 390 nga aldaw! Iti kastoy a wagas, baklayemto ti basol ti balay ti Israel.
For I have appointed the years of their iniquity to be to you a number of days, even three hundred ninety days: so you shall bear the iniquity of the house of Israel.
6 Inton maileppasmo dagitoy nga aldaw, iti maikadua a gundaway ket agiddaka a nakasikig iti makannawanmo, ta baklayemto ti basol ti balay ti Juda iti las-ud ti uppat a pulo nga aldaw. Tinudinganka iti maysa nga aldaw iti tunggal tawen.
"Again, when you have accomplished these, you shall lie on your right side, and shall bear the iniquity of the house of Judah: forty days, each day for a year, have I appointed it to you.
7 Ket saanmo nga isina ti panagkitam iti pannakalakub ti Jerusalem, a nakalislis ti manggas ti badom ket agipadtokanto iti maibusor iti siudad.
You shall set your face toward the siege of Jerusalem, with your arm uncovered; and you shall prophesy against it.
8 Ta kitaem! parparautanka tapno saanka a makaballikid agingga a maileppasmo dagiti aldaw a pananglakubmo.
Look, I lay bands on you, and you shall not turn you from one side to the other, until you have accomplished the days of your siege.
9 Mangalaka iti trigo, sebada, bubukel, patani, miho ken espelta; paglalaokem dagitoy iti maysa a pagkargaan ket manglutoka iti tinapay a kanemto segun iti bilang dagiti aldaw nga agiddaka a nakasikig. Ta kanemto daytoy iti las-ud ti 390 nga aldaw!
"Take for yourself also wheat, and barley, and beans, and lentils, and millet, and spelt, and put them in one vessel, and make bread of it; according to the number of the days that you shall lie on your side, even three hundred ninety days, you shall eat of it.
10 Daytoyto ti kanem a taraonmo: duapulo a siklo kada aldaw. Mangankanto iti maituding a pannanganmo.
Your food which you shall eat shall be by weight, twenty shekels a day: from time to time you shall eat it.
11 Ken uminomkanto iti dua a baso. Inumemto daytoy iti maituding a pannanganmo.
You shall drink water by measure, the sixth part of a hin: from time to time you shall drink.
12 Kanemto daytoy a kas kadagiti bibingka a naaramid iti sebada, ngem lutoemto daytoy iti imatangda babaen iti namaga a rugit ti tao!”
You shall eat it as barley cakes, and you shall bake it in their sight with dung that comes out of man."
13 Ta kuna ni Yahweh, “Ti kayat a sawen daytoy a narugitto ti tinapay a kanen dagiti tattao ti Israel, kadagiti nasion a pangiwarawaraakto kadakuada.”
Jehovah said, "Even thus shall the children of Israel eat their bread unclean, among the nations where I will drive them."
14 Ngem kinunak, “Saan, Yahweh nga Apo! Saanak a pulos a nagbalin a narugit! Saanak pay a pulos a nangan iti aniaman a natay wenno aniaman a pinatay dagiti ayup, manipud kinaagtutubok nga agingga ita, ken awan pay ti immuneg a narugit a karne iti ngiwatko!”
Then I said, "Ah Lord Jehovah. Look, my soul has not been polluted; for from my youth up even until now have I not eaten of that which dies of itself, or is torn of animals; neither came there abominable flesh into my mouth."
15 Isu a kinunana kaniak, “Kitaem! inikkanka kadagiti takki ti baka imbes a rugit ti tao tapno mailutom ti tinapaymo iti rabaw ti takki ti baka.”
Then he said to me, "Look, I have given you cow's dung for man's dung, and you shall prepare your bread thereon."
16 Kinunana pay kaniak, “Anak ti tao, kitaem! Isardengkon ti panangtedko iti taraon iti Jerusalem, ket madandanagandanto a mangan iti tinapay bayat a maibunbunong daytoy ken agpigergerda nga umin-inom iti danum bayat a maibunbunong daytoy.
Moreover he said to me, "Son of man, look, I will break the staff of bread in Jerusalem: and they shall eat bread by weight, and with fearfulness; and they shall drink water by measure, and in dismay:
17 Gapu ta agkurangdanto iti taraon ken danum, maupaydanto iti kabsatda ket kasla marunawda gapu iti kinadakesda.”
that they may want bread and water, and be dismayed one with another, and pine away in their iniquity.
