Ezekiela 12
1 Ary tonga tamiko ny tenin’ i Jehovah nanao hoe:
And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
2 Ry zanak’ olona, ianao monina eto amin’ ny taranaka maditra, izay mana-maso hahitana, nefa tsy mahita, ary manan-tsofina handrenesana, nefa tsy mandre fa taranaka maditra izy.
Son of man, you dwell in the midst of the iniquities of those, who have eyes to see, and see not; and have ears to hear, and hear not: because it is a provoking house.
3 Koa ianao, ry zanak’ olona, mifeheza entana handeha hifindra ho any amin’ ny fahababoana, ka miaingà antoandro eo imasony; ary mialà eo imasony eo amin’ izay itoeranao ho any amin’ ny fitoerana hafa; angamba mba ho fantany fa taranaka maditra izy.
You therefore, son of man, prepare yourself baggage for going into captivity by day in their sight; and you shall be led into captivity from your place into another place in their sight; that they may see that it is a provoking house.
4 Dia havoakanao antoandro eo imasony ny entanao, toy ny entan’ ny olona handeha ho any amin’ ny fahababoana; fa ny tenanao kosa dia hivoaka hariva eo imasony toy ny fivoaky ny handeha ho any amin’ ny fahababoana.
And you shall carry forth your baggage, baggage for captivity, by day before their eyes: and you shall go forth at even, as a captive goes forth, in their sight.
5 Boroboahy eo imasony ny manda, ka ao no amoahy ny entanao.
Dig for yourself into the wall [of the house], and you shall pass through it in their sight:
6 Ataovy an-tsoroka eo imasony no fitondranao azy, ka ento mivoaka, rehefa maizina dia maizina ny andro; sarony ny tavanao mba tsy hahitanao ny tany; fa efa nataoko ho famantarana mahagaga ho an’ ny taranak’ Isiraely ianao.
you shall be lifted up on [men's] shoulders, and shall go forth in secret: you shall cover your face, and shall not see the ground: because I have made you a sign to the house of Israel.
7 Dia nanao araka izay efa nandidiana ahy aho, ka nentiko nivoaka antoandro ny entako, toy py entan’ ny olona handeha ho any amin’ ny fahababoana, ary nony hariva dia noboroboahako tamin’ ny tanako ny manda, ka nony efa maizina dia maizina ny andro, dia nentiko nivoaka izany ka teny an-tsoroka no nitondrako azy teo imasony.
And I did thus according to all that he commanded me; and I carried forth my baggage for captivity by day, and in the evening I dug through the wall for myself, and went out secretly; I was taken up on [men's] shoulders before them.
8 Ary nony maraina dia tonga tamiko ny tenin’ i Jehovah nanao hoe:
And the word of the Lord came to me in the morning, saying,
9 Ry zanak’ olona, moa ny taranak’ Isiraely, izay taranaka maditra, tsy manontany aminao hoe va: Inona izao ataonao izao?
Son of man, have not the house of Israel, the provoking house, said to you, What do you?
10 Ambarao aminy hoe: Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah Tompo: Ity faminaniana ny loza ity dia ho amin’ ny mpanjakan’ i Jerosalema sy ny taranak’ Isiraely rehetra izay ao aminy.
Say to them, Thus says the Lord God, the Prince and the Ruler in Israel, even to all the house of Israel who are in the midst of them:
11 Lazao hoe: Izaho dia famantarana mahagaga ho anareo, koa tahaka izay ataoko no hatao amin’ ireo; hifindra sy ho lasan-ko babo izy.
say, I am performing signs: as I have done, so shall it be to him: they shall go into banishment and captivity.
12 Ary ny mpanjaka, izay ao aminy dia hitondra ny entany eny an-tsorony nony efa maizina dia maizina ny andro ka hivoaka; hoboroboahan’ ny olona ny manda hamoahana azy; hanarona ny tavany izy mba tsy ho hitan’ ny masony ny tany.
And the prince in the midst of them shall be borne upon shoulders, and shall go forth in secret through the wall, and shall dig so that he may go forth thereby: he shall cover his face, that he may not be seen by [any] eye, and he himself shall not see the ground.
13 Ary ny fandrika haratoko dia hovelariko aminy, ka ho voan’ ny fandrika izy; dia ho entiko any Babylona any amin’ ny tanin’ ny Kaldeana izy, ary tsy hahita izany, nefa ho faty any ihany.
And I will spread out my net upon him, and he shall be caught in my toils: and I will bring him to Babylon to the land of the Chaldeans; but he shall not see it, though he shall die there.
14 Ary izay rehetra manodidina azy, dia ny mpanampy azy sy ny miaramilany rehetra, haeliko ho amin’ ny rivotra rehetra, sady hanatsoaka sabatra ho enti-manenjika azy Aho.
And I will scatter to every wind all his assistants round about him, and all that help him; and I will draw out a sword after them;
15 Ary dia ho fantany fa Izaho no Jehovah, raha ahahako any amin’ ny jentilisa sy ampieleziko any amin’ ny tany samy hafa izy.
And they shall know that I am the Lord, when I have scattered them amongst the nations; and I will disperse them in the countries.
16 Nefa hamelako olom-bitsy ihany izy ho sisa tsy ho ringan’ ny sabatra sy ny mosary sy ny areti-mandringana, mba hisy hitantara ny fahavetavetany rehetra any amin’ ny jentilisa izay alehany; ka dia ho fantany fa Izaho no Jehovah.
And I will leave of them [a few] men in number [spared] from the sword, and from famine, and pestilence; that they may declare all their iniquities amongst the nations whither they have gone; and they shall know that I am the Lord.
17 Tonga tamiko ny tenin’ i Jehovah nanao hoe:
And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
18 Ry zanak’ olona, hano amin-korohoro ny haninao, ary sotroy amin-kovitra sy amin’ ahiahy ny ranonao.
Son of man, eat your bread with sorrow, and drink [your] water with torment and affliction.
19 Ary lazao amin’ ny vahoaka hoe Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah Tompo ny amin’ ny mponina ao Jerosalema, ao amin’ ny tanin’ ny Isiraely: Amin’ ahiahy no hihinanany ny haniny, ary amim-pahatalanjonana no hisotroany ny ranony, mba ho foana mihitsy ny tany, ka tsy hisy na inona na inona ao, noho ny fandozan’ izay rehetra monina ao aminy.
And you shall say to the people of the land, Thus says the Lord to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, on the land of Israel; They shall eat their bread in scarcity, and shall drink their water in desolation, that the land may be desolate with all that it contains: for all that dwell in it are ungodly.
20 Dia ho rava ny tanàna onenana, ary ho lao ny tany; ka dia ho fantatrareo fa Izaho no Jehovah.
And their inhabited cities shall be laid utterly waste, and the land shall be desolate; and you shall know that I am the Lord.
21 Ary tonga tamiko ny tenin’ i Jehovah nanao hoe:
And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
22 Ry zanak’ olona, ahoana moa, izao fitenenana ataonareo ao amin’ ny tanin’ ny Isiraely izao hoe: Mihaela ny andro, ary tonga tsinontsinona ny fahitana rehetra?
Son of man, what is your parable on the land of Israel, that you say, The days are long, the vision has perished?
23 Koa lazao aminy hoe: Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah Tompo: Hatsahatro izany fitenenana izany ka tsy hatao fiteny ao amin’ ny Isiraely intsony; fa lazao aminy kosa hoe: Akaiky ny andro sy ny tenin’ ny fahitana rehetra.
Therefore say to them, Thus says the Lord; I will even set aside this parable, and the house of Israel shall no more at all use this parable: for you shall say to them, The days are at hand, and the import of every vision.
24 Fa tsy hisy fahitana foana intsony na faminaniana mandrobo ao amin’ ny taranak’ Isiraely.
For there shall no more be any false vision, nor any one prophesying flatteries in the midst of the children of Israel.
25 Fa Izaho no Jehovah; hiteny Aho, ary ny teny lazaiko dia ho tò tokoa; tsy hajanona ela intsony izany; fa ho amin’ ny andronareo, ry taranaka maditra, no hilazako ny teny sy hanatanterahako azy, hoy Jehovah Tompo.
For I the Lord will speak my words; I will speak and perform [them], and will no more delay, for in your days, O provoking house, I will speak the word, and will perform [it], says the Lord.
26 Ary tonga tamiko ny tenin’ i Jehovah nanao hoe:
Moreover the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
27 Ry zanak’ olona, indro, ny taranak’ Isiraely manao hoe: Mbola ho ela izany fahitana hitany izany, ary ny amin’ ny fotoana mbola lavitra no vinaniny.
Son of man, behold, the provoking house of Israel boldly say, The vision which this man sees is for many days, and he prophesies for times afar off.
28 Koa lazao aminy hoe: Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah Tompo: Tsy hisy hajanona ela intsony ny teniko; fa ny teny izay lazaiko dia hotanterahiko, hoy Jehovah Tompo.
Therefore say to them, Thus says the Lord; Henceforth none of my words shall linger, which I shall speak: I will speak and do, says the Lord.
