Ezekiel 4

1 God El fahk, “Kom, mwet sukawil moul la, eis sie block an ac filiya ye motom, na sruloala luman acn Jerusalem fac.

“Now you, son of man, take a brick, place it before you, and draw on it the city of Jerusalem.

2 Kom in pukanak laf, ac orala yol in fohk ac nien aktuktuk, ac ma fukulyen mutunpot uh in sang rauneak block sac, in lumahla ke mwet mweun uh ac tuku rauneak siti sac.

Then lay siege against it: Construct a siege wall, build a ramp to it, set up camps against it, and place battering rams around it on all sides.

3 Eis sie pan osra ac tulokunak inmasrlom ac block sacn. Ngetang nu kac, in mu kom pa mweuni siti sac. Lumah se inge ac sie mwe akul nu sin mutanfahl Israel.

Then take an iron plate and set it up as an iron wall between yourself and the city. Turn your face toward it so that it is under siege, and besiege it. This will be a sign to the house of Israel.

4 “Na kom in ona ke layen lasa sum, ac nga fah filiya mwatan ma koluk lun mutanfahl Israel fom. Kom ac muta we ac keok ke ma koluk lalos

Then lie down on your left side and place the iniquity of the house of Israel upon yourself. You are to bear their iniquity for the number of days you lie on your side.

5 ke len tolfoko eungoul. Sie len in keok lom ac fah oana sie yac in kalya nu selos.

For I have assigned to you 390 days, according to the number of years of their iniquity. So you shall bear the iniquity of the house of Israel.

6 Fin tari, na kom ikla nu ke layen layot sum uh, ac keok ke ma koluk lun mwet Judah ke len angngaul — sie len oana sie yac in kalya nu selos.

When you have completed these days, lie down again, but on your right side, and bear the iniquity of the house of Judah. I have assigned to you 40 days, a day for each year.

7 Ngetang suiya acn Jerusalem ke ac kuhlusyuki. Usruk poum nu ke siti an ac fahkak kas in palu lain.

You must turn your face toward the siege of Jerusalem with your arm bared, and prophesy against it.

8 Nga ac kaprikomi kom in tia ku in ikla nu lac lac, nwe ke na safla mweun an.

Now behold, I will tie you up with ropes so you cannot turn from side to side until you have finished the days of your siege.

9 “Inge eis kutu wheat, barley, bean, pea, millet, ac spelt. Kulamiseak ma inge in sang orala bread. Pa ingan ma kom ac kang ke len tolfoko eungoul ke kom oan ke layen lasa sum.

But take wheat, barley, beans, lentils, millet, and spelt; put them in a single container and make them into bread for yourself. This is what you are to eat during the 390 days you lie on your side.

10 Lupan bread kom ac kang ke len se pa ounce oalkosr. Pa inge srikasrak nu ke len fon se.

You are to weigh out twenty shekels of food to eat each day, and you are to eat it at set times.

11 Kof nimom uh ac fah srikasrak pac — cup luo ke len se.

You are also to measure out a sixth of a hin of water to drink, and you are to drink it at set times.

12 Tanak sie e ke fohkon mwet, ma paola tari, ac omunla bread an fac, na kang yen mwet uh ku in liye kom we.”

And you shall eat the food as you would a barley cake, after you bake it over dried human excrement in the sight of the people.”

13 LEUM GOD El fahk, “Lumah se inge ma in akkalemye lah mwet Israel ac fah kang mwe mongo ma tia nasnas fal nu ke Ma Sap, ke nga ac luselosla nu in mutunfacl saya.”

Then the LORD said, “This is how the Israelites will eat their defiled bread among the nations to which I will banish them.”

14 Na nga topuk ac fahk, “LEUM GOD Fulatlana, in tia ouinge! Nga soenna akfohkfokyeyu e ke nga tulik ah me, in kang ikwen kosro sifacna misa, ku ma kosro lemnak uh uniya. Nga soenna kang kutena mongo ma tia nasnas.”

“Ah, Lord GOD,” I said, “I have never defiled myself. From my youth until now I have not eaten anything found dead or mauled by wild beasts. No unclean meat has ever entered my mouth.”

15 Ouinge God El fahk, “Wona. Nga ac lela kom in oremakin fohkon cow ac tia fohkon mwet, in sang omunla bread nom an.”

“Look,” He replied, “I will let you use cow dung instead of human excrement, and you may bake your bread over that.”

16 Na El sifil fahk, “Mwet sukawil, nga ac fah tulokinya fahsr lun bread nu Jerusalem, ac mwet we elos ac wela ac inse asor ke elos ac srikeya mwe mongo nalos ac kof nimalos.

Then He told me, “Son of man, I am going to cut off the supply of food in Jerusalem. They will anxiously eat bread rationed by weight, and in despair they will drink water by measure.

17 Ac fah wanginla bread ac kof. Mwet uh ac nukanlana ma elos in oru. Elos ac srila ke sripen ma koluk lalos.”

So they will lack food and water; they will be appalled at the sight of one another wasting away in their iniquity.
