Izikeli 18

1 Ra Anumzamo'a amanage huno nasmi'ne,

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

2 Zamafahe'moza aka krepi raga nazageno mofavre'zmimofo zamagitera akahune hutama Israeli vahe'motama nehaza fronka nanekemofo agafa'amo'a nankna hu'ne?

What mean ye, that ye use this proverb in the country of Israel, saying, The fathers have eaten sour grapes, and the teeth of the children are set on edge?

3 Nagra kasefa hu'na mani'noa Ra Anumzamo'na huankino, mago'mo'e huno Israeli mopafina ama fronka nanekea osutfa hugahaze.

As I live, saith the Lord Eternal, ye shall not have any more to use this proverb in Israel.

4 Na'ankure mika vahera Nagri vaheke mani'naze. Hagi nefa'ene nemofo'enena Nagri vahe mani'na'ankino, iza'o kumi'ma hanimoke frigahie.

Behold, all the souls are mine; as the soul of the father, so also the soul of the son—mine are they: the soul which sinneth that alone shall die.

5 Hagi mago fatgo avu'ava'ma nehania vahe'mo'ma knare huno fatgo avu'ava'ma nehuno,

But if a man be righteous, and execute justice and righteousness;

6 havi anumzamofonte'ma Kresramanama vuntesaza ne'zama onege, Israeli vahe'mofo kaza osu havi anumzante mono huontege, ru vahe'mofo a'nene savri nosuno, ika kri eri'nesia a'ene monko'za nosuno,

Upon the mountains he eateth not, and his eyes he lifteth not up to the idols of the house of Israel, and the wife of his neighbor he defileth not, and unto a woman in her separation he cometh not near;

7 mago vahe'mofo havige huno keonke'zama'a eri havia nosuno, amigahue huno'ma eri'nesia zana ete ami fatgo nehuno, musufa noseno, amunte omne vahe ne'za nemino, kukena'a omane vahe kukena hunenteno,

And he over-reacheth no man, he restoreth his pledge for a debt, a robbery he doth not commit, his bread he giveth to the hungry, and the naked he covereth with a garment;

8 zagoma nofi'ma huno eri'nea vahera agofetu huno zago agia ahenteno e'norino, havi avu'ava'ma huzankura koro nehuno, tare vahe'mofo kea fatgo kazigati refko nehuno,

Upon interest he giveth not forth, and increase he doth not take, from wrong he withdraweth his hand, true judgment he executeth between man and man;

9 kasegeni'ane tra ke'ni'anema kegava huno amage'ma antesuno'a, agra fatgo vahe manigahiankino tamage huno ofri manigahie huno Miko'zama Kegava Hu'nea Ra Anumzamo'a hu'ne.

In my statutes he walketh steadfastly, and my ordinances he keepeth to deal truly: he is righteous, he shall surely live, saith the Lord Eternal.

10 Hianagi e'inahu huno'ma fatgo avu'ava'ma nehania vahe'mofo mofavremo'ma vahe'ma aheno korama'a eri neragino, nefuma knare osu avu'ava'ma hunenteno,

If he [now] beget a dissolute son that sheddeth blood and doth to [his] brother any one of thee things;

11 nefa'a anara osugahianagi, agra havi anumzamofonte'ma kresramnama vuntesaza ne'zana neneno, ru vahe'mofo a'nene savri nehuno,

And he is one that doth not any of these [duties]; but eateth even upon the mountains, and defileth the wife of his neighbor;

12 zamunte omne vahe'ene miko zankuma atupama nehaza vahera zamazeri savri huno fenozmia enerino, vahe'za musufa enerino, kamigahue huno'ma huvempa huno eri'nea zana nomino, havi anumzamofonte monora hunenteno, hi'mnage avu'ava nehuno,

The poor and needy he over-reacheth, he is guilty of robberies, the pledge he restoreth not, and to the idols he lifteth up his eyes, abominations he committeth:

13 zagoma nofi'ma hu'nea vahera rama'a agofetu huno zago agia ahenteno e'neria vahe'mo'a agra ofri amne manigahio? I'o. Agra amnea omanigahianki, frigahie. Na'ankure kasrino hi'mnage avu'ava zantmi hu'neankino, tamage huno kumi'amofo knazana agra'a erino frigahie.

Upon interest he giveth forth, and increase he taketh: and he should live? he shall not live; all these abominations hath he done, he shall surely die; his blood shall be upon him.

14 Hagi e'inahu kefo avu'ava'ene ne'mofo mofavremo'ma nefa'ma hu'nea kumi avu'avazama negeno, avaririno ana avu'avara osu mani koro huno mani'neno,

And behold, if he beget a son, who seeth all the sins of his father which he hath done, and he considereth, and doth not the like of them;

15 havi anumzante'ma Kresramanama vuntesaza ne'zama onege, Israeli vahe'mofo kaza osu anumzante'ma mono huontege, ru vahe'mofo a'nene savri nosuno,

Upon the mountains he eateth not, and his eyes he lifteth not up to the idols of the house of Israel, the wife of his neighbor he defileth not;

16 mago vahera havige hunteno keonke'zama'a eri havia nosuno, amigahue huno'ma eri'nesia zana ete nemino, musufa noseno, amunte omne vahera ne'zana nezamino, kukenagu atupa hu'naza vahera kukena hunezmanteno,

And he over-reacheth no man, a pledge he withholdeth not, and of a robbery he is never guilty, his bread he giveth to the hungry, and the naked he covereth with a garment;

17 zamunte omane vahera zamazeri haviza nosuno, zagoma nofi'ma hu vahera agofetu huno zago agia ahenteno e'norino, kasegeni'ane tra ke'ni'anema kegava huno amage'ma antesuno'a, agra nefa'ma hu'nea kumi avu'avazamofo nona hunora ofrigahianki, tamage huno amne manigahie.

From the poor he withdraweth his hand, interest and increase he taketh not: my ordinances he executeth; in my statutes he walketh: —he shall not die for the iniquity of his father, he shall surely live.

18 Hagi nefa'a frigahie. Na'ankure agra havige huno vahe'mofo zantamina eri savri nehuno, musufa neseno, vahe'amofona knare avu'avara huozmante'neankino, ana kefo avu'va'zama hu'nea zantera frigahie.

His father, because he unjustly withheld [wages], was guilty of robbery on his brother, and did that which is not good in the midst of his people, —and lo, he died through his iniquity.

19 Hagi mofavre'amo'ma knare huno fatgo avu'ava'ma nehuno, kasege'nine tra ke'ni'anema kegava huno amage'ma nenteno, ofrino amnema manisigeta, amanage huta nantahigegahaze, nahigeno nefa'ma hu'nea kumi'mofo mizama'a nemofo'a e'orie? huta hugahaze.

Yet say ye, Why doth not the son bear part of the iniquity of the father? when the son hath executed justice and righteousness, all my statutes hath he kept, and hath done them: he shall surely live.

20 Hagi kumi'ma hania vahe'moke frigahie. Hagi mofavremo'a nefa'ma hu'nenia kumimofo nona'a knazana e'orisigeno, mago ne'mo'a mofavre'amo'ma hu'nesia kumimofo nona'a knazana e'origahie. Hagi fatgo avu'ava'ma nehania vahera agri fatgo avu'avate mizana nemino, kefo avu'ava'ma hania vahera, agri'a kefo avu'ava zante azeri haviza hugahie.

The soul that sinneth, she alone shall die; the son shall not help to bear the iniquity of the father and the father shall not help to bear the iniquity of the son: the righteousness of the righteous shall be upon him, and the wickedness of the wicked shall be upon him.

21 Hianagi kefo avu'ava zama nehania vahe'mo'ma kefo avu'ava zama netreno agu'a rukrahe huno tra keni'a amage nenteno, knare avu'ava'ene fatgo avu'ava'enema hanuno'a, ofrigahianki amne manigahie.

And the wicked, when he turneth away from all his sins that he hath committed, and keepeth all my statutes, and executeth justice and righteousness, shall surely live, he shall not die.

22 Hagi magore hu'na mago kumi'agura nagesa ontahigosue. Na'ankure fatgo avu'avaza hugahiankino ofri amne manigahie.

All his transgressions which he hath committed shall not be remembered unto him: through his righteousness which he hath done shall he live.

23 Miko'zama Kegava Hu'nea Anumzamo'a huno, kefo avu'ava'ma nehia vahe'ma nefrigeta, tamagesama antahi'zana Nagrikura musena nehie huta nehazo? I'o. Nagra musena nosue. Hagi kefo avu'ava zama'a atreno amnema mani'zanku nave'nesie.

Have I then the least pleasure in the death of the wicked? saith the Lord Eternal: and not in his turning away from his ways, that he may live?

24 Hianagi fatgo avu'ama nehania ne'mo'ma atreno'ma kefo avu'ava ome nehuno, kasrino hi'mnage avu'avazama ome haniana, agra manigahio? I'o. Agra omanigahianki frisigeno maka fatgo avu'ava'ma hu'nea zamo'a amnezankna hanige'na, Nagra ana zankura nagesa ontahigahue. Na'ankure kefo avu'ava huno kumi hu'neankino ana kumimofo nona'a omanigahianki frigahie.

But when the righteous turneth away from his righteousness, and committeth wrong, and doth according to all the abominations that the wicked man doeth, shall he live? all his righteousness that he hath done shall not he remembered: through his trespass which he hath committed, and through his sin that he hath done, —through them shall he die.

25 Hianagi amanage huta hugahaze, Ra Anumzamo'ma hia avu'ava zamo'a fatgo osie huta hugahaze. Hagi Israeli vahe'mota antahiho, Nagri navu'navamo fatgoa hunefi, tamagri tamavu tamava'mo fatgoa hu'ne?

Yet ye say, The way of the Lord is not equitable: hear now, O house of Israel, Is not my way equitable? is it not your ways which are not equitable?

26 Hagi Fatgo avu'ava'ene vahe'mo'ma ana fatgo avu'ava'ama atreno kumi'ma haniana, agra kumi hugahiankino frigahie. Na'ankure fatgo osu avu'azama hania zanku huno agra frigahie.

When a righteous man turneth away from his righteousness, and doth wrong, and dieth therefore: through his wrong which he hath done must he die.

27 Hagi kefo avu'ava'ma nehania vahe'mo'ma ana kefo avu'ava'ma atreno agu'ama rukrahe huno'ma fatgo avu'ava zama haniana, agra'a agu'vazigahie.

Again, when the wicked turneth away from his wickedness which he hath committed, and executeth justice and righteousness: he shall indeed preserve his soul alive.

28 Na'ankure agra maka kefo avu'ava'ma hu'nea zana keno antahino nehuno, ana avu'ava zana atreno agu'a rukrahe hu'neankino, tamage huno agra ofrino manigahie.

Because he hath considered, and turned away from all his transgressions which he had committed: he shall surely live, he shall not die.

29 Hianagi Israeli vahe'mota huta, Ra Anumzamofo avu'avamo'a fatgo osu'ne huta nehaze. Hagi tamage huno Nagri navu'navamo'a fatgoa osu'nefi? I'o. Tamagri tamavu tamava'mo fatgoa osu'ne.

Yet say the house of Israel, The way of the Lord is not equitable: are not my ways equitable, O house of Israel? is it not your ways which are not equitable?

30 E'ina hu'negu Israeli vahera, magoke magoke'mota tamagrama hu'nesaza avu'ava zante ante'na Nagra refko huramantegahue huno Mikozama Kegava Hu'nea Anumzamo'a hu'ne. Hagi aru tamagri kumi avu'ava zamo tamazeri haviza hanigi kefo avu'ava zana atreta tamagu'a rukrahe hiho.

Therefore will I judge you, every one according to his ways, O house of Israel, saith the Lord Eternal: return ye, and cause others to return from all your transgressions, that iniquity may not become your stumbling-block.

31 Hagi kefo avu'avazama nehaza zana netreta tamagu'a rukrahe huta kasefa tamagu tamagesa enerita kasefa avamu eriho. Hagi Israeli vahe'mota nahanigeta tamagra frigahaze?

Cast away from yourselves all your transgressions, whereby ye have transgressed; and make yourselves a new heart and a new spirit; for why will ye die, O house of Israel?

32 Na'ankure vahe'ma nefrizage'na Nagra musena nosuanki, tamagu'a rukrahe huta ofri amne maniho hu'na Miko'zama Kegava Hu'noa Anumzamo'na nehue.

For I have no pleasure in the death of him that deserveth to die, saith the Lord Eternal: therefore convert yourselves, and live.
