Ezekiel 3

1 God El fahk, “Mwet sukawil moul la, kangla book limlim se inge, na kom som kaskas nu sin mwet Israel.”

Then said he unto me, Son of man What thou findest, eat, —eat this roll, and go speak unto the house of Israel.

2 Ouinge nga mangelik, ac El ase book limlim sac ngan kangla.

So I opened my mouth, —and he caused me to eat this roll.

3 El fahk, “Mwet sukawil, kangla book limlim se nga sot nu sum uh, ac nwakla insiom kac.” Na nga kangla, ac emwem kac uh oana honey.

Then said he unto me Son of man. Thy belly, cause thou to eat and thy bowels, fill thou with this roll which I am giving unto thee. So I did eat, and it became in my mouth, as honey for sweetness.

4 Na God El fahk, “Mwet sukawil, fahla nu yurin mwet Israel ac fahk nu selos ma nukewa nga supwekom in fahk nu selos uh.

Then said he unto me, — Son of man Go get thee unto the house of Israel, and thou shalt speak with my words, unto them.

5 Nga tia supwekom nu ke sie mutunfacl su kom tia kalem ke kas lalos, a nu yurin mwet na Israel.

For not unto a people deep of lip and heavy of tongue, art thou sent —[but] unto the house of Israel:

6 Nga funu supwekom nu in kutu mutunfacl lulap su orekmakin kas upa ma kom tia kalem kac, elos lukun lohng kom.

not unto many peoples deep of lip and heavy of tongue, whose words thou couldst not understand, —surely if unto them I had sent thee, they would have hearkened unto thee.

7 A funu mwet Israel, wangin sie selos ac lungse in lohng kom. Finne nga, elos tia pac lohngyu. Elos nukewa mwet likkeke ac lungse alein.

But the house of Israel will not be willing to hearken unto thee, for they are not willing to hearken unto me, —for all the house of Israel are bold of forehead and hard of heart.

8 Inge nga ac oru kom in likkeke ac ku oana elos.

Lo! I have made thy face bold like as their faces, and thy forehead bold like as their forehead.

9 Nga ac oru kom in ku oana sie eot, ac keke oana sie diamond. Nimet sangeng sin mwet orek alein ingo.”

As an adamant harder than flint, have I made thy forehead, —thou shalt not fear them neither shalt thou be dismayed at their faces, For a perverse house, they are!

10 God El sifilpa fahk, “Mwet sukawil, sang insiom in porongo ac esam ma nukewa nga fahk nu sum uh.

Then said he unto me, — Son of man. All my words which I shall speak unto thee, receive thou into thy heart and in thine ears, hear thou:

11 Na kom som nu yurin mwet srahm su muta in sruoh, ac fahk nu selos ma nga, LEUM GOD Fulatlana, fahk nu selos, lah elos ac lohng kom ku tia.”

then go get thee unto them of the captivity, unto the sons of thy people, and thou shalt speak unto them and say unto them, Thus saith My Lord Yahweh, whether they will hear or whether they will forbear.

12 Na ngun lun God srukyuyak, ac nga lohng sie pusra tukuk su fahk, “Kaksakin wolana lun LEUM GOD inkusrao lucng.”

Then the Spirit lifted me up, and I heard behind me the sound of a great rushing, — Blessed be the glory of Yahweh. From his place!

13 Nga lohng pusren posohksok lun ma orekla moul uh tukeni pikpik yen engyeng uh, ac kusen wheel uh su yohk pusra oana pusren kusrusr lulap.

Yea the sound of the wings of the living ones, gently touching each other, and the sound of the wheels, along with them, even the sound of a great rushing.

14 Ac ku lulap lun LEUM GOD tuku nu fuk, ac ke ngun lal usyula nga pulakin inse toasr ac kasrkusrak.

So the Spirit lifted me up, and took me away, —and I went bitterly, in the rage of my spirit, but the hand of Yahweh upon me was strong.

15 Na nga tuku nu Tel Abib sisken Infacl Chebar, yen ma mwet sruoh elos muta we. Nga muta we len itkosr, ac wela ke ma nga tuh liye ac lohng.

Thus came I unto them of the captivity, at Tel-abib. who were dwelling towards he river Chebar and I dwelt where They were dwelling; yea I dwelt there seven days, stunned in their midst,

16 Tukun len itkosr, LEUM GOD El kaskas nu sik

And it came to pass at the end of seven days, that the word of Yahweh came unto me saying

17 ac fahk, “Mwet sukawil, nga orekomla in sie mwet san nu sin mutanfahl Israel, ac kom fah fahkang nu selos kas in sensenkakunulos ke kas ma nga ac sot nu sum.

Son of man, A watchman, have I appointed thee to the house of Israel, —and thou shalt hear, at my mouth a message, and shalt warn them from me.

18 Nga fin akkalemye lah mwet koluk uh ac misa, ac kom tia fahkang nu selos in aolla moul lalos tuh elos in moul, na elos ac misa ke ma koluk lalos, tusruk nga ac filiya mwatan misa lalos fom.

When I say to the lawless man— Thou shalt surely die, and thou hast not given him warning, neither hast spoken to warn the lawless man from his lawless way, to save himself alive the same lawless man in his iniquity shall die, but his blood, at thy hand, will I require.

19 A kom fin sang kas in kai nu sin mwet koluk, ac elos tiana forla liki, na elos ac misa ke orekma koluk lalos, na kom ac moul.

Whereas when thou hast warned a lawless man, and he hath not turned from his lawlessness and from his lawless way he in his iniquity shall die, but Thou hast delivered thine own soul.

20 “Ac fin mwet suwoswos uh mutawauk in oru ma koluk, na nga fuhlelosi in muta ke moul fosrnga, elos ac misa ke ma koluk lalos ke sripen kom tia sensenkakunulos. Nga fah tia esam ma wo elos oru meet ah, ac kom ac fah eis mwatan misa lalos.

And when a righteous man hath turned from his righteousness, and committed perversity, and I have suffered a stumbling- block to be laid before him he shall die, —though thou hast not warned him, in his sin, shall he die, neither shall be remembered his righteous deeds which he hath done, but his blood, at thy hand will I require;

21 A kom fin sensenkakin mwet wo in tia oru ma koluk, ac elos lohng kom ac tia oru ma koluk, elos ac moul, ac kom ac oayapa moul.”

whereas when Thou hast warned a righteous man. That a righteous man must not sin and he hath not sinned, he shall surely live in that he took warning, and thou hast delivered thine own soul.

22 Nga pulakin ku lun LEUM GOD oan fuk, ac nga lohng ke El fahk nu sik, “Tukakek ac tufokla nu infahlfal uh. Nga fah sramsram nu sum we.”

Then came upon me there the hand of Yahweh, —and he said unto me, Arise go forth into the valley, and there, will I speak with thee.

23 Ouinge nga som nu infahlfal uh, ac nga liye wolana lun LEUM GOD oana ke nga tuh liye sisken Infacl Chebar. Na nga faksufi nu infohk uh.

So I arose and went forth into the valley, and lo! there the glory of Yahweh, standing, like the glory which I saw by the river Chebar, -and I fell upon my face.

24 Ngun lun God ilyak nu in nga ac tulokinyuyak. Ac LEUM GOD El fahk nu sik, “Fahla, utyak nu in lohm sum an, ac kaliya.

Then the Spirit entered into me, and caused me to stand upon my feet, —and he spake with me and said unto me, Go in shut thyself up, in the midst of thine own house,

25 Mwet sukwil, kom ac fah kapriyuki ke sucl, ac kom ac tia ku in illa nu in wulil uh.

And thou—O son of man, lo! they have put upon thee bands, and they will bind thee therewith, -. so that thou go not forth in their midst;

26 Nga fah oru tuh loum in ulla, kom in tia ku in fahk kas in sensenkakin nu sin mwet alein inge.

thy tongue also, will I cause to cleave unto the roof of thy mouth, so shalt thou be dumb and not be to them a reprover, — For a perverse house, they are!

27 Na ke nga ac sifilpa kaskas nu sum ac sifil oru kom in ku in kaskas, kom fah fahkang nu selos ma nga, LEUM GOD Fulatlana, fahk uh. Kutu selos ac porongekom, ac kutu ac pilesrekom, mweyen elos sie mutanfahl alein.”

But when I speak with thee, I will open thy mouth, and thou shalt say unto them. Thus saith My Lord Yahweh, —He that is minded to hear, let him hear, And he that is minded to forbear, let him forbear! For a perverse house, they are!
