Ezekiela 16
1 Niheo amako indraike ty tsara’ Iehovà nanao ty hoe:
And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
2 O ana’ondatio, tohino t’Ierosalaime ty amo hativà’ iareoo,
Son of man, make clear to Jerusalem her disgusting ways,
3 le ano ty hoe, Hoe t’Iehovà Talè am’ Ierosalaime: Boak’ an-tane’ i nte-Kanàney ty nihirifa’o naho ty fifokoa’o; nte-Amore ty rae’o, vaho nte-Kite ty rene’o.
And say, This is what the Lord has said to Jerusalem: Your start and your birth was from the land of the Canaanite; an Amorite was your father and your mother was a Hittite.
4 Le i fisamahañe azoy, amy andro nahatoly azoy, tsy tinampake ty foe’o vaho tsy nisasaeñe an-drano irehe hañalio azo; tsy nozañan-tsira, tsy nifolokoñañe.
As for your birth, on the day of your birth your cord was not cut and you were not washed in water to make you clean; you were not salted or folded in linen bands.
5 Tsy niferenaiñam-pihaino, tsy nanoañe leo raik’ amy rezay; fe nariañe amoka añe ty fiai’o hoe te tsy vara, amy andro nisamahañ’azoy.
No eye had pity on you to do any of these things to you or to be kind to you; but you were put out into the open country, because your life was hated at the time of your birth.
6 Niary ama’o iraho vaho nizoeko te nandeotse azo ty lio’o, le hoe ty asako ama’o, Aa ndra t’ie ami’ty lio’o, miveloma, Eka mbe tamo lio’oo irehe te nataoko ty hoe; miveloma,
And when I went past you and saw you stretched out in your blood, I said to you, Though you are stretched out in your blood, have life;
7 naho nampanaranaheko ho maro manahake o ahetse an-kivokeo, le nitombo naho nihaabo, naho nihamineñe ravake fanjaka; nivoatse o nono’oo vaho nihalava o volo’oo; fe nihalo vaho nibongy.
And be increased in number like the buds of the field; and you were increased and became great, and you came to the time of love: your breasts were formed and your hair was long; but you were uncovered and without clothing.
8 Niary ama’o iraho nisary naho ingo te tondrok’ ama’o ty san-katea; aa le narongoko ama’o ty sarimboko naho nisaroñako ty heña’o; le nifanta ama’o vaho nifañina ama’o, hoe t’Iehovà Talè, le ninjare Ahiko irehe;
Now when I went past you, looking at you, I saw that your time was the time of love; and I put my skirts over you, covering your unclothed body: and I gave you my oath and made an agreement with you, says the Lord, and you became mine.
9 sinasako an-drano, eka kinotriko ama’o ty lio’o, vaho nañiliñako menake.
Then I had you washed with water, washing away all your blood and rubbing you with oil.
10 Nisikinako an-tsatam-bahotse, naho nampiombeako holitse, naho nadiako lamba leny marerarera, vaho nasaroko lande.
And I had you clothed with needlework, and put leather shoes on your feet, folding fair linen about you and covering you with silk.
11 Nampiradoradoako bije, naho niravahako o sira’oo, vaho rava-binanditse am-bozo’o eo.
And I made you fair with ornaments and put jewels on your hands and a chain on your neck.
12 Nanoako bange añ’oro’o naho kiviro an-tsofi’o eo vaho sabaka homozohozo an-doha’o eo.
And I put a ring in your nose and ear-rings in your ears and a beautiful crown on your head.
13 Izay ty nañaminañ’ azo am-bolafoty naho volamena; naho nisaroñ’ azo an-deny marerarera naho lande naho an-tsatam-bahotse; ie nihinañe bom-bare-bolè soa, reketse tantele naho menake, naho nimontramontra vaho nionjon-ko evaem-panjaka.
So you were made beautiful with gold and silver; and your clothing was of the best linen and silk and needlework; your food was the best meal and honey and oil: and you were very beautiful.
14 Niboele amo kilakila’ ndatio ty hatsomerentsere’o; amy te niginohe’ ty engeko nanoako ama’oy, hoe t’Iehovà Talè. c
You were so beautiful that the story of you went out into all nations; you were completely beautiful because of my glory which I had put on you, says the Lord.
15 Fe niatoa’o ty hasoa-vinta’o, naho nihisa an-karapiloañe ty amy faràm-binta’oy vaho fonga nadoa’o amy ze niary eo ty hatsimirira’o; hene niantofa’o ze nimb’ama’o.
But you put your faith in the fact that you were beautiful, acting like a loose woman because you were widely talked of, and offering your cheap love to everyone who went by, whoever it might be.
16 Nihamine’o amo siki’oo ty kitrely tsaratseake naho nanoa’o hakarapiloañe; kanao tsy ho oniñe ty mañirinkiriñe izay, vaho tsy ho trea ka.
And you took your robes and made high places for yourself ornamented with every colour, acting like a loose woman on them, without shame or fear.
17 Le rinambe’o ka o firavahan-tsomerentsere’oo, i volamena naho volafoty natoloko azoy, nitsene’o sare’ ondaty vaho nanoa’o hakalalijahañe,
And you took the fair jewels, my silver and gold which I had given to you, and made for yourself male images, acting like a loose woman with them;
18 le rinambe’o o siki’o maro-voloo hanikina’o aze, vaho nengae’o ama’e i menakoy naho i tsotsekoy;
And you took your robes of needlework for their clothing, and put my oil and my perfume before them.
19 i mofoko natoloko azoy; i bon-kaneñe soay, naho i menake reketse tantele nafahako azoy le nazotso’o ama’e ami’ty harifondrifo’e; izay ty ie, hoe t’Iehovà Talè.
And my bread which I gave you, the best meal and oil and honey which I gave you for your food, you put it before them for a sweet smell, says the Lord.
20 Mbore rinambe’o ka o ana-dahi’oo naho o anak’ ampela’oo, o sinama’o ho Ahikoo, vaho nisoroña’o habotseke. Ata’o ho raha kede hao o hakarapiloa’oo?
And you took your sons and your daughters whom I had by you, offering even these to them to be their food. Was your loose behaviour so small a thing,
21 Zinama’o o anakoo toe nisoroñe’o amo samposampon-drahao, ie nampirangae’o.
That you put my children to death and gave them up to go through the fire to them?
22 Aa amy ze hene hativà’o naho amo fonga hakarapiloa’oo le nandikofa’o o andron-katanora’oo ie nibongy naho nihalo vaho nileore’ i lio’oy.
And in all your disgusting and false behaviour you had no memory of your early days, when you were uncovered and without clothing, stretched out in your blood.
23 Ie añe iaby i halotsere’oy (hankàñe ama’o, hoe t’Iehovà Talè),
And it came about, after all your evil-doing, says the Lord,
24 le songa niranjie’o tamboho, naho nitsenea’o kitrely o lalañeo;
That you made for yourself an arched room in every open place.
25 nanoe’o am-pifotoran-damoke eo o kitreli’o iabio, naho vineta’o ty hamotsotsora’o, naho vinela’o amy ze fonga niary eo o voro-pe’oo, vaho nampitomboe’o ty hatsimirira’o.
You put up your high places at the top of every street, and made the grace of your form a disgusting thing, opening your feet to everyone who went by, increasing your loose ways.
26 Nañarapiloe’o amo ana’ i Mitsraimeo, o maromaso mpañarine azoo, vaho nampitomboe’o ty hatsimirira’o hanigike ty habosehako.
And you went with the Egyptians, your neighbours, great of flesh; increasing your loose ways, moving me to wrath.
27 Inao, arè, natorakitsiko ama’o ty tañako naho naketrako ty fanahanako vaho tinoloko an-tsatrin’ tro’ o malaiñe azoo, o anak’ ampelan-te Pilisty salatse ami’ ty hatsimirira’oo.
Now, then, my hand is stretched out against you, cutting down your fixed amount, and I have given you up to the desire of your haters, the daughters of the Philistines who are shamed by your loose ways.
28 Mbore nanoa’o hakarapiloañe amo ana’ i Asoreo amy t’ihe tsy nieneñe; mbe nanoe’o hatsimirirañe avao fa tsy nietsake.
And you went with the Assyrians, because of your desire which was without measure; you were acting like a loose woman with them, and still you had not enough.
29 Nampitomboe’o an-tane Kenàne añe naho amo nte-Kasdio ka ty hakarapiloa’o, fe mbe tsy nahaeneñ’ azo.
And you went on in your loose ways, even as far as the land of Chaldaea, and still you had not enough.
30 Akore ty hamavozoan-tro’o, hoe t’Iehovà Talè, te ihe mitolom-panao irezay, toe satan-karapilo-mena,
How feeble is your heart, says the Lord, seeing that you do all these things, the work of a loose and overruling woman;
31 namboare’ o akiba’oo an-doha’ ze hene lalañe, naho songa nandranjia’o tamboho ankaboa’ ze atao tameañe! fe tsy nanahake o tsimirirañeo irehe kanao nalain-tambe.
For you have made your arched room at the top of every street, and your high place in every open place; though you were not like a loose woman in getting together your payment.
32 Hoe tañanjomba maromaso mpamonje ambahiny hisolo i vali’ey!
The untrue wife who takes strange lovers in place of her husband!
33 Toe fonga tambezañe o karapiloo, fa ihe ka manambe o miolots’ ama’oo, vaho banabanae’o hitotok’ azo tok’ aia tok’aia ty amo hatsimirira’oo.
They give payment to all loose women: but you give rewards to your lovers, offering them payment so that they may come to you on every side for your cheap love.
34 Aa le mifamotetse amo ampela ila’eo ami’ty hakalalija’o; tsy eo ty manahak’ azo, kanao mpanolon-tambe fa tsy toloren-tambe, toe mifamotetse.
And in your loose behaviour you are different from other women, for no one goes after you to make love to you: and because you give payment and no payment is given to you, in this you are different from them.
35 Ie amy zao ry karapilo, tsanoño ty tsara’ Iehovà.
For this cause, O loose woman, give ear to the voice of the Lord:
36 Hoe ty nafè’ Iehovà Talè: Kanao nadoañe ty haloloa’o naho naboak’ amo sakeza’oo o heña’o ty amy hakarapiloa’o naho o samposampo tiva’oo vaho ty amy lio’ o keleia’o nibanabana’oo;
This is what the Lord has said: Because your unclean behaviour was let loose and your body uncovered in your loose ways with your lovers and with your disgusting images, and for the blood of your children which you gave to them;
37 ie amy zao, henteo te sindre hatontoko o sipa’o nifalea’oo, eka! ze fonga nitea’o, reketse o niheje’oo; vata’e hatontoko hiatreatre azo boak’ an-kotso-valo, le haborako o heña’oo, hahatreavañe ze hene fiboridaña’o.
For this cause I will get together all your lovers with whom you have taken your pleasure, and all those to whom you have given your love, with all those who were hated by you; I will even make them come together against you on every side, and I will have you uncovered before them so that they may see your shame.
38 Le ho zakaeko: hoe rakemba vinamba naho nampiori-dio ty hizakàñe azo; vaho hafetsako ama’o ty liom-kaviñerañe naho farahy.
And you will be judged by me as women are judged who have been untrue to their husbands and have taken life; and I will let loose against you passion and bitter feeling.
39 Le haseseko am-pità’ iareo naho ho rotsahe’ iareo o toe’o aboo naho ho demohe’ iareo o kitreli’oo, le hampikorendahe’ iareo ka o siki’oo naho hitavañe ty haraom-bolonahe’o vaho hapo’ iereo mibongy naho mihalo irehe.
I will give you into their hands, and your arched room will be overturned and your high places broken down; they will take your clothing off you and take away your fair jewels: and when they have done, you will be uncovered and shamed.
40 Hendese iereo haname azo ka i lahialeñey, hametsa-bato ama’o vaho hitombok’ azo am-pibara.
And they will get together a meeting against you, stoning you with stones and wounding you with their swords.
41 Ho forototoe’ iareo añ’ afo o anjomba’oo naho hizaka azo añatrefan-drakemba maro; le hazìko irehe tsy hanao tsimirirañe, tsy hanambe ka.
And they will have you burned with fire, sending punishments on you before the eyes of great numbers of women; and I will put an end to your loose ways, and you will no longer give payment.
42 Izay ty hampanintsiñe ty fifomboko ama’o naho hampienga ty famarahiako ama’o le hitsiñe iraho vaho tsy ho boseke ka.
And the heat of my wrath against you will have an end, and my bitter feeling will be turned away from you, and I will be quiet and will be angry no longer.
43 Amy t’ie nandikoke ty san-katora’o naho nanigìke ty habosehako ty amy rezay; le inao! navahako an-doha’o eo o sata’oo, hoe t’Iehovà Talè; soa tsy fonga hatovo’o amo hativà’ o ila’eo o haloloañe zao.
Because you have not kept in mind the days when you were young, but have been troubling me with all these things; for this reason I will make the punishment of your ways come on your head, says the Lord, because you have done this evil thing in addition to all your disgusting acts.
44 Inao, te ze hene mpanoñon-drazan-drehake ro hanao o razan-drehake zao ty ama’o: Hambañe aman-drene’e ty anak’ ampela’e.
See, in every common saying about you it will be said, As the mother is, so is her daughter.
45 Ihe anak’ ampelan-drene’o ty malaim-baly naho amory; ihe ka i rahavaven-droahavave’o nalaim-baly naho o keleia’eoy; nte-Kite ty rene’o naho nte-Amore ty rae’o.
You are the daughter of your mother whose soul is turned in disgust from her husband and her children; and you are the sister of your sisters who were turned in disgust from their husbands and their children: your mother was a Hittite and your father an Amorite.
46 I Somerone rahavave’o, toe zoke’o, rekets’ o anak’ ampela’eo ro mimoneñe an-taña’o havia eo; vaho zai’o t’i Sedome mitobok’ an-taña’o havana eo rekets’ o anak’ ampela’eo.
Your older sister is Samaria, living at your left hand, she and her daughters: and your younger sister, living at your right hand, is Sodom and her daughters.
47 Toe tsy norihe’o ty sata’ iareo, naho tsy nanoe’o ty sata rati’ iareo, fe hoe raha biliti’e ama’o t’ie nilombolombo’ iareo ami’ty haleora’ o sata’o iabio.
Still you have not gone in their ways or done the disgusting things which they have done; but, as if that was only a little thing, you have gone deeper in evil than they in all your ways.
48 Amy te velon-dRaho, hoe t’Iehovà Talè, mbe lia’e tsy nanoe’ i Sedome zai’o naho o anak’ampela’eo o nanoe’o naho o anak’ampela’oo.
By my life, says the Lord, Sodom your sister never did, she or her daughters, what you and your daughters have done.
49 Inao! zao ty hakeo’ i zai’o Sedomey: firengevohañe naho hatemboañe vaho fitobahan-kavotroañe ty ama’e naho o anak’ampela’eo, naho tsy nampahozare’e ty fitàm-pisotry ndra o rarakeo.
Truly, this was the sin of your sister Sodom: pride, a full measure of food, and the comforts of wealth in peace, were seen in her and her daughters, and she gave no help to the poor or to those in need.
50 Nitrotroaboke iereo, nanao hativañe añatrefako eo; aa kanao nataoko te hahasoa, le nakareko añe.
They were full of pride and did what was disgusting to me: and so I took them away as you have seen.
51 Le i Somerone, ndra te tsy nanoe’e ty an-tsasan-kakeo’o; toe nampitomboe’o mandikoatse iereo o haloloa’oo, le hoe nañavantañ’ o zoke’oo o fonga hativañe nanoe’oo.
And Samaria has not done half your sins; but you have made the number of your disgusting acts greater than theirs, making your sisters seem more upright than you by all the disgusting things which you have done.
52 Aa ihe nizaka o rahavave’oo, vaveo ty hasalara’ o hakeo nanoe’oo, ie nilosore’o ty hativà’ iareo; toe vantañe te ama’o iereo; mimeñara vaho vaveo heike o fisalara’oo amy te nivantañe’o o rahavave’oo.
And you yourself will be put to shame, in that you have given the decision for your sisters; through your sins, which are more disgusting than theirs, they are more upright than you: truly, you will be shamed and made low, for you have made your sisters seem upright.
53 Aa ie afoteko ty fandrohiza’ iareo, ty fandrohiza’ i Sedome rekets’ o anak’ampela’eo naho ty fandrohiza’ i Somerone mitraok’ amo anak’ ampela’eo, le habalako ka ty fandrohiza’ o mpirohi’oo añivo’ iareo ao;
And I will let their fate be changed, the fate of Sodom and her daughters, and the fate of Samaria and her daughters, and your fate with theirs.
54 soa te ho vave’o ty fisalara’o, vaho ho meñare’o o fonga sata nanoe’oo, ihe nimpañohò iareo.
So that you will be shamed and made low because of all you have done, when I have mercy on you.
55 Ie mitampoly amy toe’ iareo valoha’ey t’i Sedome rekets’ o anak’ ampela’eo, naho mibalike mb’amy fanoe’ iareoy ka t’i Somerone miroanak’ ampela’e, le himpoly an-toe’o haehae ka irehe naho o anak’ ampela’oo.
And your sisters, Sodom and her daughters, will go back to their first condition, and Samaria and her daughters will go back to their first condition, and you and your daughters will go back to your first condition.
56 Tsy nati’ ty vava’o hao t’i Sedome rahavave’o tamy ihe nimpirengevokey?
Was not your sister Sodom an oath in your mouth in the day of your pride,
57 taolo’ te nitendreke ty halò-tsere’o, manahake tañ’ andro ninjè’ o ana’o Arame miariseho azoo, naho o anak’ ampela’ o nte-Pelisity mañohoke azoo: o mpañamavo azo nainai’eo.
Before your shame was uncovered? Now you have become like her a word of shame to the daughters of Edom and all who are round about you, the daughters of the Philistines who put shame on you round about.
58 Fa nivavè’o o haloloa’oo naho o hativa’oo hoe t’Iehovà.
The reward of your evil designs and your disgusting ways has come on you, says the Lord.
59 Aa le hoe ty nafè’ Iehovà Talè, Hanoeko ama’o hambañe amy nanoe’oy, ie nitsambolitio’o i fantay hivaliha’o amy fañinay.
For this is what the Lord has said: I will do to you as you have done, you who, putting the oath on one side, have let the agreement be broken.
60 Fa ho tiahiko i nifañinako ama’o tañ’ andron-katora’oy vaho hajadoko ama’o ty fañina tsy ho modo.
But still I will keep in mind the agreement made with you in the days when you were young, and I will make with you an eternal agreement.
61 Ho tiahi’o amy zao o sata’oo, le ho salatse naho ho rambese’o indraike i rahavave’o rey, ty zoke’o naho ty zai’o; le hatoloko azo iereo ho anak’ ampela, fa tsy amy fañina’oy.
Then at the memory of your ways you will be overcome with shame, when I take your sisters, the older and the younger, and give them to you for daughters, but not by your agreement.
62 I fañinakoy ty hajadoko ama’o, le ho fohi’o te Izaho Iehovà,
And I will make my agreement with you; and you will be certain that I am the Lord:
63 soa te ho tiahi’o, naho ho meñatse, vaho tsy hanoka-bava ka ty amy fisalara’oy, ie fonga hahako o sata-rati’oo, hoe t’Iehovà Talè.
So that, at the memory of these things, you may be at a loss, never opening your mouth because of your shame; when you have my forgiveness for all you have done, says the Lord.
