Ezekiela 3

1 Ary hoy Izy tamiko: Ry zanak’ olona, hano izay hitanao, eny, hano ity horonan-taratasy ity, dia mandehana, ka mitenena amin’ ny taranak’ Isiraely.

Moreover he saide vnto me, Sonne of man, eate that thou findest: eate this roule, and goe, and speake vnto the house of Israel.

2 Dia nosokafako ny vavako, ary nafahany ahy izany horonan-taratasy izany.

So I opened my mouth, and he gaue mee this roule to eate.

3 Ary hoy Izy tamiko: Ry zanak’ olona, vokiso ny kibonao, ary fenoy ny horonan-taratasy omeko anao ity ny tsinainao. Dia nihinana aho, ka, mamy tao am-bavako toy ny tantely izy.

And he said vnto me, Sonne of man, cause thy belly to eate, and fill thy bowels with this roule that I giue thee. Then did I eate it, and it was in my mouth as sweete as honie.

4 Ary hoy Izy tamiko: Ry zanak’ olona, andeha mankany amin’ ny taranak’ Isiraely, ka lazao aminy ny teniko.

And he said vnto me, Sonne of man, goe, and enter into the house of Israel, and declare them my wordes.

5 Fa tsy ho any amin’ ny firenena miboediboedi-piteny sy miboeriboerika no anirahana anao, fa ho any amin’ ny taranak’ Isiraely ihany;

For thou art not sent to a people of an vnknowen tongue, or of an hard language, but to the house of Israel,

6 tsy ho amin’ ny firenena maro, izay miboediboedi-piteny sy miboeriboerika, ka tsy ho azonao ny teniny, fa raha maniraka anao ho amin’ ireto Aho, dia hihaino anao izy.

Not to many people of an vnknowen tongue, or of an harde language, whose wordes thou canst not vnderstand: yet if I should sende thee to them, they would obey thee.

7 Fa ny taranak’ Isiraely dia tsy mety mihaino anao, satria tsy mety mihaino Ahy izy; fa ny taranak’ Isiraely rehetra dia mafy handrina sady madi-po.

But the house of Israel will not obey thee: for they will not obey me: yea, all the house of Israel are impudent and stiffe hearted.

8 Indro, efa nohamafiko ny tarehinao hiatrika amin’ ny tarehiny sy ny handrinao hanandrina ny handriny.

Beholde, I haue made thy face strong against their faces, and thy forehead harde against their foreheads.

9 Ataoko toy ny diamondra ny handrinao, eny, mafy noho ny vatolampy aza; ka aza matahotra azy na mivadi-po noho ny tarehiny, fa taranaka maditra izy.

I haue made thy forehead as the adamant, and harder then the flint: feare them not therefore, neither be afraid at their lookes: for they are a rebellious house.

10 Ary hoy Izy tamiko: Ry zanak’ olona, ny teny rehetra izay holazaiko aminao dia aoka ho mamin’ ny fonao, ka henoy amin’ ny sofinao.

He said moreouer vnto me, Sonne of man, receiue in thine heart al my words that I speake vnto thee, and heare them with thine eares,

11 Dia mandehana mankany amin’ ny babo, dia ireo zanaky ny firenenao ary mitenena aminy hoe: Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah Tompo na hihaino izy na tsy hihaino.

And goe and enter to them that are led away captiues vnto the children of thy people, and speake vnto them, and tell them, Thus saith the Lord God: but surely they will not heare, neither will they in deede cease.

12 Ary nisy fanahy nanainga ahy, dia nandre horakoraka be teo ivohoko aho nanao hoe: Isaorana anie ny voninahitr’ i Jehovah avy amin’ ny fitoerany.

Then the spirite tooke me vp, and I heard behinde me a noise of a great russhing, saying, Blessed be ye glorie of the Lord out of his place.

13 Ary reko koa ny fikopakopaky ny elatry ny zava-manan’ aina, izay nifanendry, sy ny fidilodilotry ny kodia teo anilany sy ny horakoraka be.

I heard also the noyse of the wings of the beasts, that touched one another, and the ratling of the wheeles that were by them, euen a noyse of a great russhing.

14 Ary nisy fanahy nanainga ahy ka nitondra ahy, dia lasa aho sady nirehitra tamin’ ny fahavontosan’ ny fanahiko; ary ny tànan’ i Jehovah dia nahery tao amiko.

So the spirit lift me vp, and tooke me away and I went in bitternesse, and indignation of my spirite, but the hand of the Lord was strong vpon me.

15 Dia tonga tany amin’ ny babo tany Telabiba aho, dia teo amin’ izay nonina teo amoron’ ny ony Kebara, teo amin’ izay nipetrahany, ary mandritra ny hafitoana dia tahaka ilay torana iny aho.

Then I came to them that were led away captiues to Tel-abib, that dwelt by the riuer Chebar, and I sate where they sate, and remained there astonished among them seuen dayes.

16 Ary nony afaka ny hafitoana, dia tonga tamiko ny tenin’ i Jehovah nanao hoe:

And at the ende of seuen dayes, the worde of the Lord came againe vnto me, saying,

17 Ry zanak’ olona, efa nataoko mpitily ho an’ ny taranak’ Isiraely ianao; ka dia hohenoinao ny teny avy amin’ ny vavako, ary avy amiko no hananaranao azy.

Sonne of man, I haue made thee a watchman vnto the house of Israel: therefore heare the worde at my mouth, and giue them warning from me.

18 Raha hoy Izaho amin’ ny ratsy fanahy: Ho faty tokoa ianao! ary tsy mananatra azy ianao, na miteny hananatra ny ratsy fanahy, hialany amin’ ny lalany ratsy hamonjena ny ainy, dia ho faty amin’ ny helony ihany ilay ratsy fanahy; nefa hadiniko amin’ ny tananao ny ràny.

When I shall say vnto the wicked, Thou shalt surely die, and thou giuest not him warning, nor speakest to admonish the wicked of his wicked way, that he may liue, the same wicked man shall die in his iniquitie: but his blood will I require at thine hande.

19 Fa raha mananatra ny ratsy fanahy kosa ianao, ka izy no tsy mety miala amin’ ny faharatsiany sy amin’ ny lalany ratsy, dia ho faty amin’ ny helony ihany izy; fa ho voavonjinao ny fanahinao.

Yet if thou warne the wicked, and he turne not from his wickednesse, nor from his wicked way, he shall die in his iniquitie, but thou hast deliuered thy soule.

20 Ary koa, raha ny marina miala amin’ ny fahamarinany ka manao meloka, ary mametraka fahatafintohinana eo anoloany Aho, dia Ho faty izy; eny noho ny tsy nananaranao azy dia ho faty amin’ ny fahotany ihany izy, ary ny fahamarinana izay nataony tsy hotsaroana, nefa kosa hadiniko amin’ ny tananao ny ràny.

Likewise if a righteous man turne from his righteousnesse, and commit iniquitie, I will lay a stumbling blocke before him, and he shall die, because thou hast not giuen him warning: he shall die in his sinne, and his righteous deedes, which he hath done, shall not be remembred: but his blood will I require at thine hand.

21 Fa raha mananatra ny marina mba tsy hanota ianao, ka tsy manota izy, dia ho velona tokoa izy, satria nino anatra; ary voavonjinao koa ny fanahinao.

Neuerthelesse, if thou admonish that righteous man, that the righteous sinne not, and that he doeth not sinne, he shall liue because he is admonished: also thou hast deliuered thy soule.

22 Ary ny tànan’ i Jehovah dia tamiko, ary hoy Izy tamiko: Mitsangàna, ka mivoaha ho any amin’ ny lohasaha, ary any no hitenenako aminao.

And the hande of the Lord was there vpon me, and he said vnto me, Arise, and goe into the fielde, and I will there talke with thee.

23 Dia nitsangana aho ka nivoaka nankany amin’ ny lohasaha; ary, indro, nitoetra teo ny voninahitr’ i Jehovah tahaka ny voninahitra izay efa hitako teo amoron’ ny ony Kebara ihany dia nikarapoka nihohoka aho.

So when I had risen vp, and gone foorth into the fielde, beholde, the glorie of the Lord stoode there, as the glorie which I sawe by the riuer Chebar, and I fell downe vpon my face.

24 Ary nisy fanahy tonga tao anatiko ka nampitsangana ahy; dia niteny tamiko Izy ka nanao hoe: Andeha, mirindrina ao anatin’ ny tranonao ianao.

Then the Spirit entred into me, which set me vp vpon my feete, and spake vnto me, and said to me, Come, and shut thy selfe within thine house.

25 Fa ianao, ry zanak’ olona, indro, hasiany fatorana, izay hamatorany anao, ka tsy hahazo mivoaka ho ao aminy ianao.

But thou, O sonne of man, beholde, they shall put bandes vpon thee, and shall binde thee with them, and thou shalt not goe out among them.

26 Ary hampiraiketiko amin’ ny lanilaninao ny lelanao, ka ho moana ianao ary tsy ho mpananatra azy; fa taranaka maditra izy.

And I will make thy tongue cleaue to the roofe of thy mouth, that thou shalt be dume, and shalt not be to them as a man that rebuketh: for they are a rebellious house.

27 Fa raha miteny aminao Aho, dia hosokafako ny vavanao, ka dia holazainao aminy hoe: Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah Tompo: Izay mihaino, dia aoka izy hihaino; ary izay tsy mihaino, dia aoka izy tsy hihaino kosa; fa taranaka maditra izy.

But when I shall haue spoken vnto thee, I will open thy mouth, and thou shalt say vnto them, Thus saith the Lord God, He that heareth, let him heare, and he that leaueth off, let him leaue: for they are a rebellious house.
