< Ezekiel 9 >

1 Kalpasanna, nangngegko nga impukkawna a kunana, “Umay koma iti siudad dagiti guardia, nga imetda ti igam a pangdadael.”
And he cried in mine ears with a loud voice, saying, The judgment of the city has drawn nigh; and each had the weapons of destruction in his hand.
2 Ket pagammoan! Adda innem a lallaki a dimteng iti dalan iti akin-ngato a ruangan a nakasango iti amianan, tunggal maysa ket addaan iti igam a pagpatay. Ket adda lalaki iti nagtetengngaanda a nakakawes iti lino a nakasalikad iti alikamen a pagsurat ti eskriba. Simrekda ngarud ket nagtakderda iti abay ti bronse nga altar.
And, behold, six men came from the way of the high gate that looks toward the north, and each one's axe was in his hand; and there was one man in the midst of them clothed with a long robe down to the feet, and a sapphire girdle was on his loins: and they came in and stood near the brazen altar.
3 Ket nagpangato ti dayag ti Dios ti Israel manipud iti ayan ti kerubim a sigud nga ayanna ket immakar iti ruangan ti balay. Ket pinukkawanna ti lalaki a nakakawes iti lino a nakasalikad iti alikamen a pagsurat ti eskriba.
And the glory of the God of Israel, that was upon them, went up from the cherubs to the porch of the house. And he called the man that was clothed with the long robe, who had the girdle on his loins;
4 Kinuna ni Yahweh kenkuana, “Likawem ti entero a siudad—ti entero a Jerusalem—ket markaam ti muging dagiti lallaki nga agas-asug ken agsensennaay gapu kadagiti amin a nakarimrimon a mapaspasamak iti entero a siudad.”
And said to him, Go through the midst of Jerusalem, and set a mark on the foreheads of the men that groan and that grieve for all the iniquities that are done in the midst of them.
5 Ket nangngegko a nakisarita isuna kadagiti dadduma, kinunana, “Sarunnoenyo isuna a manglikmut iti siudad ket mangpapataykayo! Saanyo a kaasian dagiti tattao a makitayo, ket awan ti ispalenyo
And he said to the first in my hearing, Go after him into the city, and smite: and let not your eyes spare, and have no mercy.
6 lallakay man, agtutubo, birhen, ub-ubbing wenno babbai man. Patayenyo ida amin! Ngem saanyo a sagsagiden ti siasinoman a namarkaan ti mugingna. Irugiyo iti santuariok!” Rinugianda ngarud kadagiti lallakay nga adda iti sangoanan ti balay.
Slay utterly old man and youth, and virgin, and infants, and women: but go ye not nigh any on whom is the mark: begin at my sanctuary. So they began with the elder men who were within in the house.
7 Kinunana kadakuada, “Tulawanyo ti balay, ket punnoenyo ti paraanganna kadagiti natay. Inkayon!” Isu a napanda rinaut ti siudad.
And he said to them, Defile the house, and go out and fill the ways with dead bodies, and smite.
8 Ket bayat a rarautenda daytoy, nadlawko a maymaysak a nabati, ket nagpaklebak ken nagpukkawak a kinunak, “O Apo a Yahweh! Dadaelem kadi amin a nabatbati iti Israel inton idissuormo iti pungtotmo iti Jerusalem?”
And it came to pass as they were smiting, that I fell upon my face, and cried out, and said, Alas, O Lord! wilt thou destroy the remnant of Israel, in pouring out thy wrath upon Jerusalem?
9 Kinunana kaniak, “Nakaro unayen ti basol ti balay ti Israel ken Juda. Napno ti daga iti dara ken napno iti kinakillo ti siudad, agsipud ta kunada, 'Nalipatanen ni Yahweh ti daga' ken 'Saan a makita ni Yahweh!'
Then said he to me, The iniquity of the house of Israel and Juda is become very exceedingly great: for the land is filled with many nations, and the city is filled with iniquity and uncleanness: because they have said, The Lord has forsaken the earth, The Lord looks not upon [it].
10 No kasta ngarud, saanakto a maasi kadakuada, ket saankonto ida nga ispalen. Ngem ketdi, iyegkonto amin dagitoy kadakuada.
Therefore mine eye shall not spare, neither will I have any mercy: I have recompensed their ways upon their heads.
11 Kalpasanna, nagsubli ti lalaki a nakakawes iti lino a nakasalikad iti alikamen a pagsurat ti eskriba. Impadamagna a kunana, “Naaramidko aminen nga imbilinmo.”
And, behold, the man clothed with the long robe, and girt with the girdle about his loins, answered and said, I have done as thou didst command me.
