Izikeli 15

1 Hagi Ra Anumzamo'a amanage huno nasmi'ne,

And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

2 Vahe'mofo mofavremoka, hagagema hu'nea waini rampa'amo'a zafafi zafaramimofo rampa'a agaterenefi?

And thou, son of man—of all the wood, of the branches that are among the trees of the forest, what shall be made of the wood of the vine?

3 Hagi ana waini nofimofo ramparetira eri'za mago'a knare'zana tro nehu'za, mago'a eri'za kavoma hantinte'zana trora nehazafi?

Will they take wood of it to make [it fit] for work? will they take of it a peg to hang any vessel upon it?

4 Hagi ana waini rampama tevefima kresageno'ma urefa erefa'ama nereno amunoma'ama tegege vazintesiama'a eri'za mago'azana trora hugahazafi?

It is only given to the fire to be consumed; the fire consumes that which is yearly pruned of it, and it is utterly gone. Will it be useful for [any] work?

5 Hagi tevema ore'nere'ma eri'za mago'a zama tro huga'ma osu'nea waini rampa, inankna hu'za tevemo'ma tegege vazinte'nesiama'a eri'za mago'azana trora hugahaze?

Not even while it is yet whole will it be [useful] for [any] work: if the fire shall have utterly consumed it, will it still be [fit] for work?

6 E'ina hu'negu Anumzana Mikozama Kegavama Hu'nea Ra Anumzamo'a amanage hu'ne, Waini teve rampama zafafi tevenema eri haviama hu'na tevema kroaza hu'na Jerusalemi kumapi vahera namefi huzamigahue.

Therefore say, Thus saith the Lord, As the vine-tree among the trees of the forest, which I have given up to the fire to be consumed, so have I given up the inhabitants of Jerusalem.

7 Hagi namefi huzminenkeno tevefinti atre'za atiramigahazanagi, ete tevefinke kasagegahaze. E'ina hanugeta Nagrikura Ra Anumza mani'ne huta keta antahita hugahaze.

And I will set my face against them; they shall go forth of the fire, and [yet] fire shall devour them; and they shall know that I am the Lord, when I have set my face against them.

8 Nagra mopazmia eri havizantfa hugahue. Na'ankure zamagra Nagrira tamage hu'za namagera onte'naze huno Ra Anumzana Mikozama Kegava Hu'nea Anumzamo'a hu'ne.

And I will give up the land to ruin, because they have utterly transgressed, saith the Lord.
