Ezekiel 9
1 Kalpasanna, nangngegko nga impukkawna a kunana, “Umay koma iti siudad dagiti guardia, nga imetda ti igam a pangdadael.”
He cried also in my ears with a loud voice, saying, Cause them that have charge over the city to draw near, even every man [with] his destroying weapon 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 higher gate, which lieth towards the north, and every man a slaughter-weapon in his hand; and one man among them [was] clothed with linen, with a writer's inkhorn by his side: and they went in and stood beside 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 had gone up from the cherub on which he was, to the threshhold of the house. And he called to the man clothed with linen, who [had] the writer's inkhorn by his side;
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 the LORD said to him, Go through the midst of the city, through the midst of Jerusalem, and set a mark upon the foreheads of the men that sigh and that cry for all the abominations that are done in the midst of it.
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 to the others he said in my hearing, Go ye after him through the city, and smite: let not your eye spare, neither have ye pity:
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 [and] young, both maids, and little children, and women: but come not near any man upon whom [is] the mark; and begin at my sanctuary. Then they began at the elderly men who [were] before 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 fill the courts with the slain: go ye forth. And they went forth, and slew in the city.
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, while they were slaying them, and I was left, that I fell upon my face, and cried, and said, Ah Lord GOD! wilt thou destroy all the residue of Israel in thy pouring out of thy fury 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 Judah [is] exceeding great, and the land [is] full of blood, and the city full of perverseness: for they say, The LORD hath forsaken the earth, and the LORD seeth not.
10 No kasta ngarud, saanakto a maasi kadakuada, ket saankonto ida nga ispalen. Ngem ketdi, iyegkonto amin dagitoy kadakuada.
And as for me also, my eye shall not spare, neither will I have pity, [but] I will recompense their way upon their head.
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 linen, who [had] the inkhorn by his side, reported the matter, saying, I have done as thou hast commanded me.
