Ezekiela 21
1 Le niheo amako ty tsara’ Iehovà nanao ty hoe:
And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
2 O ana’ondatio, ampiatrefo mb’e Ierosalaime ty lahara’o naho tseizo mb’amo toetse miavakeo; mitokia mb’an-tane Israeley,
Son of man, set your face toward Jerusalem, and drop your word toward the holy places, and prophesy against the land of Israel,
3 naho ano ty hoe an-tane Israele ao, Inao ty nafè’ Iehovà: Hiatrek’ azo iraho, naho hapontsoako an-traño’e ty fibarako vaho hapitsoko ama’o ty vaño naho ty tsivokatse.
And say to the land of Israel, Thus says the LORD; Behold, I am against you, and will draw forth my sword out of his sheath, and will cut off from you the righteous and the wicked.
4 Aa kanao haitoako ama’o ndra ty vantañe ndra ty lo-tsereke, le hiakatse i traño’ey i mesolavay mb’amy ze fonga nofotse boak’ atimo pak’ avarats’ añe;
Seeing then that I will cut off from you the righteous and the wicked, therefore shall my sword go forth out of his sheath against all flesh from the south to the north:
5 vaho ho rendre’ ze atao nofotse iaby te Izaho Iehovà ty nampitsoake fibara amy traño’ey; le tsy hampoliko ka.
That all flesh may know that I the LORD have drawn forth my sword out of his sheath: it shall not return any more.
6 Miselekaiña ry ana’ondatio, am-pikoretan-troke, am-pievoñañe mafaitse aolom-pihaino’ iareo eo.
Sigh therefore, you son of man, with the breaking of your loins; and with bitterness sigh before their eyes.
7 Aa ie manao ty hoe ama’o iereo, Ino o iselekaiña’oo? le hanoiñe ty hoe irehe, Ty amy talily niazokoy, fa songa hiharofotse ze arofo, sindre higebañe ze fitàñe, sambe hitoirañe ze troke, vaho hene ho letra’e hoe rano ze ongotse. Hehe te hirik’ ao re naho ho heneke hoe t’Iehovà Talè.
And it shall be, when they say unto you, Wherefore sigh you? that you shall answer, For the tidings; because it comes: and every heart shall melt, and all hands shall be feeble, and every spirit shall faint, and all knees shall be weak as water: behold, it comes, and shall be brought to pass, says the Lord GOD.
8 Le niheo amako ty tsara’ Iehovà:
Again the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
9 O ondatio, mitokia ami’ty hoe: Hoe ty nafè’ Iehovà: Ty fibara! fa rinañitse i fibaray, vaho nampimilomilotse;
Son of man, prophesy, and say, Thus says the LORD; Say, A sword, a sword is sharpened, and also furbished:
10 Sinioñe hanjamana’e, nikotriñeñe hitsopelatse hoe helatse! Hirebeke hao tika, anako? Ihe nañovoke ty kobaiñe naho ze atao tsipilo?
It is sharpened to make a sore slaughter; it is furbished that it may glitter: should we then make delight? it despises the rod of my son, as every tree.
11 Fa natolotse ho kotriñeñe i mesay, ho vontitireñe am-pitañe; fa nisioñeñe, fa mimilomilotse i fibara hatolots’ am-pità’ i mpamonoiy.
And he has given it to be furbished, that it may be handled: this sword is sharpened, and it is furbished, to give it into the hand of the slayer.
12 Miroveta, angololoìho ondatikoo, ry ana’ ondatio, ze hene roandria’ Israeleo, fa nasese am-pibara rekets’ ondatikoo. Hete! Mipaoha fey!
Cry and wail, son of man: for it shall be upon my people, it shall be upon all the princes of Israel: terrors by reason of the sword shall be upon my people: strike therefore upon your thigh.
13 Ho pok’ eo ty fitsohañe, aa vaho ho ovohe’e hao ty kobaiñe? tsy hanao izay ka, hoe t’Iehovà Talè.
Because it is a trial, and what if the sword contemn even the rod? it shall be no more, says the Lord GOD.
14 O ondatio, mitokia, mitehafa fità am-pitàñe, ampandafao fañintelo’e ty fibara, i fibara’ o hanjevoñañeoy, i fibaram-panjevoñam-bey hañarikatoke iareoy,
You therefore, son of man, prophesy, and strike your hands together. and let the sword be doubled the third time, the sword of the slain: it is the sword of the great men that are slain, which enters into their privy chambers.
15 hampitranake arofo, ie maro ty hitsikapy naho hikorovoke, t’ie ampiatrefeko ami’ty lengom-pibara an-dalambei’ iareo iaby. Hehe te nampimilemilereñe, nisioñeñe hanjamañe.
I have set the point of the sword against all their gates, that their heart may faint, and their ruins be multiplied: ah! it is made bright, it is wrapped up for the slaughter.
16 Lafao mb’ ankavana, paoho mb’ankavia! ndra aia’aia ty añohara’ i lelam-pibara’oy.
Go you one way or other, either on the right hand, or on the left, anywhere your face is set.
17 Izaho ka ro hampipeke tañañe hañenefañe ty fifomboko; Izaho Iehovà ty nivolañe.
I will also strike mine hands together, and I will cause my fury to rest: I the LORD have said it.
18 Niheo amako ty tsara’ Iehovà:
The word of the LORD came unto me again, saying,
19 O ‘ndatio, tendreo lalañe roe horihe’ i fibaram-panjaka’ i Baveley; songa mfototse amy taney añe. Andranjio pilàke amy tsempa’e mitsile mb’amy rovaiy mb’eo;
Also, you son of man, appoint you two ways, that the sword of the king of Babylon may come: both two shall come forth out of one land: and choose you a place, choose it at the head of the way to the city.
20 atorò ty lalañe homba’ i fibaray mb’amy Raba’ o nte-Amoreo mb’eo naho mb’e Iehodà am’ Ierosalaime nifatrareñey mb’eo.
Appoint a way, that the sword may come to Rabbath of the Ammonites, and to Judah in Jerusalem the defenced.
21 Fa mijohañe am-pitsileañe eo ty mpanjaka’ i Bavele, misikily, akatrokatro’e o ana-paleo, imanea’e ontane ty saren-draha, biribirie’e ty ate.
For the king of Babylon stood at the parting of the way, at the head of the two ways, to use divination: he made his arrows bright, he consulted with images, he looked in the liver.
22 Tsatok’ am-pità’e havana ao ty tamben-kizè’ Ierosalaime, hampitroara’e famofohan-dalañe, hikaike fanjamanañe, hikoike aly, hampirampia’e bodam-pamofohañe an-dalambey eo, naho hamotry fanongàñe vaho handranjy rafem-panameañe.
At his right hand was the divination for Jerusalem, to appoint captains, to open the mouth in the slaughter, to lift up the voice with shouting, to appoint battering rams against the gates, to cast a mount, and to build a fort.
23 Toe hatao’ iereo t’ie sikily vìlañe, ty amo nanao fanta jadoñeo; f’ie nampitiahieñe o hakeoo, hitsepahañe iareo.
And it shall be unto them as a false divination in their sight, to them that have sworn oaths: but he will call to remembrance the iniquity, that they may be taken.
24 Aa le hoe t’Iehovà Talè: Kanao nitiahie’areo o hamengoha’areoo, ie afa-domboke o tahi’areoo, naho zoeñe amo sata’areo iaby o hakeo’areoo. Amy te fa nitiahieñe nahareo, le fa rinambe am-pitañe.
Therefore thus says the Lord GOD; Because all of you have made your iniquity to be remembered, in that your transgressions are discovered, so that in all your doings your sins do appear; because, I say, that all of you are come to remembrance, all of you shall be taken with the hand.
25 Le ihe ry roandria lo-tsere’ Israele, fa tondroke i andro’oy, an-tsa’ hampigadoñan-kakeo,
And you, profane wicked prince of Israel, whose day has come, when iniquity shall have an end,
26 hoe ty nafè’ Iehovà Talè, Endaho i sabakay, afaho i halam-bolamenay; tsy ho tambatse eo henaneo. Aonjoñe i epakey, afotsake i mitiotiotsey.
Thus says the Lord GOD; Remove the diadem, and take off the crown: this shall not be the same: exalt him that is low, and bring low him that is high.
27 Hafoteko, hafoteko, hafoteko le tsy hanoeñe ka! ampara’ te totsak’ eo ty manan-jo hanolorako Aze.
I will overturn, overturn, overturn, it: and it shall be no more, until he comes whose right it is; and I will give it him.
28 Aa ihe, ana’ ondatio, mitokia, le ano ty hoe, Hoe ty nafè’ Iehovà Talè ty amo ana’ i Amoneo, ty amy fañinjea’ iareoy, ty hoe: Ry fibara, ry fibara tsinoake hanjamañe: nikotriñeñe hamongotse, pak’ am-para’e, ty amy fimilomilora’ey.
And you, son of man, prophesy and say, Thus says the Lord GOD concerning the Ammonites, and concerning their reproach; even say you, The sword, the sword is drawn: for the slaughter it is furbished, to consume because of the glittering:
29 Ie taroñen’ aroñarom-bìlan-drehe, anikiliañe vande, hampipetahañe azo am-pititiha’ o lo-tsereke ho vonoeñeo, ie fa tsatoke ty andro’ iareoo, an-tsam-pigadoñan-kaloloañe.
While they see vanity unto you, while they divine a lie unto you, to bring you upon the necks of them that are slain, of the wicked, whose day has come, when their iniquity shall have an end.
30 Ampolio an-traño-meso’e ao re! Amy namoroñañe azoy, an-tane nihirifa’o añe ty hizakako azo.
Shall I cause it to return into his sheath? I will judge you in the place where you were created, in the land of your nativity.
31 Hakofòko ama’o ty hatorifihako, ho tiofeko ama’o ty afom-piforoforoako, naho haseseko am-pità’ ondaty bibi’e, za-panjevoñañe.
And I will pour out mine indignation upon you, I will blow against you in the fire of my wrath, and deliver you into the hand of brutish men, and skilful to destroy.
32 Ho fandrehetañ’ afo irehe, ho añivon-tane ao ty lio’o, tsy ho tiahy ka, fa Izaho Iehovà ty nitsara.
You shall be for fuel to the fire; your blood shall be in the midst of the land; you shall be no more remembered: for I the LORD have spoken it.
