< Ezekiel 8 >

1 Ket napasamak iti maikalima nga aldaw ti maikanem a bulan iti maika-innem a tawen, bayat nga agtugtugawak iti uneg ti balayko, ken nakatugaw iti sangoanak dagiti panglakayen ti Juda, nga immay kaniak sadiay ti pannakabalin ni Yahweh nga Apo.
And it came to pass in the sixth year, in the fifth month, on the fifth [day] of the month, I was sitting in the house, and the elders of Juda were sitting before me: and the hand of the Lord came upon me.
2 Ket kimmitaak, ket adtoy, adda maysa a langa a kaing-ingas ti tao, a kasla adda apuy manipud iti patongna nga agpababa! Ken manipud iti patongna nga agpangato ket adda agranraniag a kasla agbegbeggang a landok!
And I looked, and, behold, the likeness of a man: from his loins and downwards [there was] fire, and from his loins upwards [there was] as the appearance of amber.
3 Ket adda kasla ima nga inggaw-atna ket ginammatanna ti buokko; impangatonak ti Espiritu iti nagbaetan ti langit ken daga, ket kadagiti sirmata manipud iti Dios, impannak idiay Jerusalem nga agturong iti pagserkan ti akin-uneg a ruangan iti amianan, a pagtaktakderan ti didiosen a mangparparnuay iti nakaro nga imun.
And he stretched forth the likeness of a hand, and took me by the crown of my head; and the Spirit lifted me up between the earth and sky, and brought me to Jerusalem in a vision of God, to the porch of the gate that looks to the north, where was the pillar of the Purchaser.
4 Ket adda sadiay ti dayag ti Dios ti Israel, a kalanglanga ti kas iti nakitak idi idiay patad.
And, behold, the glory of the Lord God of Israel was there, according to the vision which I saw in the plain.
5 Ket kinunana kaniak, “Anak ti tao, tumalliawka iti amianan.” Timmalliawak ngarud iti amianan, ket iti agpaamianan a ruangan nga agturong iti altar, sadiay pagserkan ket adda sadiay didiosen ti imun.
And he said to me, Son of man, lift up your eyes toward the north. So I lifted up mine eyes toward the north, and, behold, [I looked] from the north toward the eastern gate.
6 Isu a kinunana kaniak, “Anak ti tao, makitam kadi ti ar-aramidenda? Dagitoy dagiti makarimon unay nga ar-aramiden ditoy ti balay ti Israel tapno adaywak ti bukodko a santuario! Ngem tumaliawka ket makitam dagiti nakarkaro pay a makarimon nga aramid!”
And he said to me, Son of man, have you seen what these do? They commit great abominations here so that I should keep away from my sanctuary: and you shall see yet greater iniquities.
7 Kalpasanna, impannak iti pagserkan a ruangan ti paraangan, ket kimmitaak, ket adda maysa nga abut iti pader.
And he brought me to the porch of the court.
8 Kinunana kaniak, “Anak ti tao, palawaem ti abut daytoy a pader.” Pinalawak ngarud ti abut iti pader, ket adda nakitak a ruangan!
And he said to me, Son of man, dig: so I dug, and behold a door.
9 Ket kinunana kaniak, “Umunegka ket kitaem dagiti agkakadakes a makarimon nga ar-aramidenda ditoy.”
And he said to me, Go in, and behold the iniquities which they practise here.
10 Simrekak ngarud ket nakitak, ket adtoy! Adda agduduma a kita dagiti agkarkarayam ken makarimon a narungsot nga ay-ayup! Naikitikit iti aglawlaw ti pader ti tunggal didiosen ti balay ti Israel.
So I went in and looked; and saw vain abominations, and all the idols of the house of Israel, portrayed upon them round about.
11 Pitopulo a panglakayen iti balay ti Israel ti adda sadiay, ket agtaktakder iti tengngada ni Jaazanias a putot a lalaki ni Safan. Agtaktakderda iti sangoanan dagiti imahen, ken nakaiggem iti insensario ti tunggal tao isu a ti ayamuom ti asuk ti insenso ket nagpangato.
And seventy men of the elders of the house of Israel, and Jechonias the son of Saphan stood in their presence in the midst of them, and each one held his censer in his hand; and the smoke of the incense went up.
12 Ket kinunana kaniak, “Anak ti tao, makitam kadi ti ar-aramiden dagiti panglakayen iti balay ti Israel iti nasipnget? Ar-aramiden daytoy ti tunggal tao kadagiti nailemmeng a siled a nakaidulinan dagiti didiosenna, ta ibagbagada, 'Saannatayo a makita ni Yahweh! Binaybay-anen ni Yahweh ti daga!”'
And he said to me, You have seen, son of man, what the elders of the house of Israel do, each one of them in their secret chamber: because they have said, The Lord see not; The Lord has forsaken the earth.
13 Ket kinunana kaniak, “Tumaliawka manen ket kitaem dagiti dadduma nga ad-adda pay a makarimon nga ar-aramidenda.”
And he said to me, You shall see yet greater iniquities which these do.
14 Kalpasanna, impannak iti pagserkan ti ruangan iti balay ni Yahweh nga adda iti amianan a paset, ket adtoy! Agtugtugaw sadiay dagiti babbai nga agladladingit gapu kenni Tammuz.
And he brought me in to the porch of the house of the Lord that looks to the north; and, behold [there were] women sitting there lamenting for Thammuz.
15 Isu a kinunana kaniak, “Makitam kadi daytoy, anak ti tao? Tumaliawka manen ket makitam dagiti nakarkaro pay a makarimon nga aramid ngem kadagitoy.”
And he said to me, Son of man, you have seen; but you shall yet see [evil] practices greater then these.
16 Ket impannak iti akin-uneg a paraangan ti balay ni Yahweh, ket adtoy! Iti pagserkan ti templo ni Yahweh, iti nagbaetan ti portiko ken ti altar, adda agarup dua pulo ket lima a lallaki a nakatallikud iti templo ni Yahweh ken simmangoda iti daya, ket agdaydayawda kenni Semes.
And he brought me into the inner court of the house of the Lord, and at the entrance of the temple of the Lord, between the porch and the altar, were about twenty men, with their back parts toward the temple of the Lord, and their faces [turned] the opposite way; and these were worshipping the sun.
17 Kinunana kaniak, “Anak ti tao, makitam kadi daytoy? Bassit kadi laeng a banag para iti balay ti Juda ti panangaramidda kadagitoy a makarimon nga ar-aramidenda ditoy? Ta pinunnoda ti daga iti kinaranggas, ket timallikudda manen tapno pagungetendak, inkabilda dagiti sangsanga kadagiti agongda.
And he said to me, Son of man, you have seen this. [Is it] a little thing to the house of Juda to practise the iniquities which they have practised here? for they have filled the land with iniquity: and, behold, these are as scorners.
18 Isu a dusaekto met ida; saanakto a maasi kadakuada, ket saankonto ida nga ispalen. Uray ipangngegda kaniak ti napigsa a panagsangitda, saankonto ida a denggen!”
Therefore will I deal with them in wrath: mine eye shall not spare, nor will I have any mercy.
