Ezekiela 22
1 Niheo amako indraike ty tsara’ Iehovà:
And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
2 O ana’ ondatio, hizaka v’iheo? ho zakae’o hao i rovan-dioy? Aa le tseizo ama’e o fonga sata-tsivokatseo.
And you, son of man, will you be a judge, will you be a judge of the town of blood? then make clear to her all her disgusting ways.
3 Ano ty hoe, Hoe ty nafè’ Iehovà Talè: Ty rova tia! Mpampiori-dio ty an-tro’e ao, fa tondroke ty andro’e; i mitsene samposampo hanisý aze, hileora’ey.
And you are to say, This is what the Lord has said: A town causing blood to be drained out in her streets so that her time may come, and making images in her to make her unclean!
4 Fa ota faly irehe amo lio nampiorihe’oo, nitivae’ o samposampo niranjie’oo; nampitotohe’o o andro’oo, vaho nampigadoñe’o o tao’oo: aa le nonjirako amo kilakila’ndatio, ho fitohafañe amo hene fifeheañeo.
You are responsible for the blood drained out by you, and you are unclean through the images which you have made; and you have made your day come near, and the time of your judging has come; for this cause I have made you a name of shame to the nations and a cause of laughing to all countries.
5 Hañonjitse azo iaby ty marine naho ty lavitse, ihe mavo-vintañe, lifo-pivalitsikotahañe.
Those who are near and those who are far from you will make sport of you; your name is unclean, you are full of sounds of fear.
6 Heheke, o roandria’ Israeleo, ie songa aman-ozatse, ro tàma’o ao hampiori-dio.
See, the rulers of Israel, every one in his family, have been causing death in you.
7 Ama’o ao ty nañamaivaña’ iareo rae naho rene; añivo’o ao ty namorekekea’ iareo renetane; ama’o ty nañota’ iareo bode rae naho vantotse.
In you they have had no respect for father and mother; in you they have been cruel to the man from a strange land; in you they have done wrong to the child without a father and to the widow.
8 Tsinambolitio’o o raha màsikoo vaho tiniva’o o Sabatekoo.
You have made little of my holy things, and have made my Sabbaths unclean.
9 Tàma’o ao o songa mpanao dramotseo hampiorike lio; le ama’o ao ty nifanjora’e an-kaboañe ao: añivo’o ao ty nanoa’e hakarapiloañe.
In you there are men who say evil of others, causing death; in you they have taken the flesh with the blood for food; in your streets they have put evil designs into effect.
10 Ama’o ao ty nañafake ty heñan-droae’e; songa nampisalatse ty ampela am-piambola’e;
In you they have let the shame of their fathers be seen; in you they have done wrong to a woman at the time when she was unclean.
11 songa nañarapilo ami’ty valin-drañe’e; sindre nimba’e ty anak’ ampelan-drahavaven-tañanjomba’e naho sambe nampireke ty rahavave’e, ty anak’ ampelan-drae’e.
And in you one man has done what was disgusting with his neighbour's wife; and another has made his daughter-in-law unclean; and another has done wrong to his sister, his father's daughter.
12 Le ama’o ao ty nandrambe vokañe hampiorike lio, le ihe ty nangalak’ ana-bola reke-tovo’e naho namorekeke an-drañe’o naho nañaramamo, vaho nandikok’ ahy hoe t’Iehovà Talè.
In you they have taken rewards as the price of blood; you have taken interest and great profits, and you have taken away your neighbours' goods by force, and have not kept me in mind, says the Lord.
13 Oniño arè te niteha-tañan-draho amy fikatramoa’o nampitomboa’o vara naho amo lio’o añivo’oo.
See, then, I have made my hands come together in wrath against your taking of goods by force and against the blood which has been flowing in you.
14 Hahavontititse hao ty arofo’o, ho fatratse hao o fità’oo amo andro hitoloñakoo? Izaho Iehovà ty nitsara naho hañeneke.
Will your heart be high or your hands strong in the days when I take you in hand? I the Lord have said it and will do it.
15 Haparatsieko añivo’ o kilakila’ ndatio irehe naho haboele amo fifeheañeo, vaho ho forototoeko ama’o ty haleora’o.
And I will send you in flight among the nations and wandering among the countries; and I will completely take away out of you everything which is unclean.
16 Le haniva vatan-drehe am-pahaisaha’ o kilakila’ndatio, vaho ho fohi’o te Izaho Iehovà.
And you will be made low before the eyes of the nations; and it will be clear to you that I am the Lord.
17 Niheo amako ty tsara’ Iehovà nanao ty hoe,
And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
18 O ana’ondatio, fa ninjare taim-by amako ty anjomba’ Israele: songa torisìke naho kankiñe, naho viñe vaho firak’ am-po tòñak’ ao; taim-bolafoty iereo.
Son of man, the children of Israel have become like the poorest sort of waste metal to me: they are all silver and brass and tin and iron and lead mixed with waste.
19 Aa le hoe ty nafè’ Iehovà Talè: Amy te sindre taim-by amako nahareo, le inao! t’ie hatontoko añivo’ Ierosalaime ao.
For this cause the Lord has said: Because you have all become waste metal, see, I will get you together inside Jerusalem.
20 Manahake ty amoriañe volafoty naho torisìke naho viñe naho firake vaho kankiñe anteñateña’ i toñakey, haniofañ’ afo hampitranak’ aze ro hamoriako anahareo ami’ty habosehako naho ami’ty fifomboko, haniofako vaho hatranako.
As they put silver and brass and iron and lead and tin together inside the oven, heating up the fire on it to make it soft; so will I get you together in my wrath and in my passion, and, heating the fire with my breath, will make you soft.
21 Eka hatontoko vaho ho tiofeko ama’ areo ty afon-kabosehako, ie hitranake aivo’e ao.
Yes, I will take you, breathing on you the fire of my wrath, and you will become soft in it.
22 Manahake ty fampitranahañe volafoty am-po toñak’ ao, ty hampitranahañe anahareo am-po’e ao; vaho ho fohi’ areo te Izaho Iehovà ty nampidoañe ty habosehako ama’ areo.
As silver becomes soft in the oven, so you will become soft in it; and you will be certain that I the Lord have let loose my passion on you.
23 Le niheo amako ty tsara’ Iehovà, nanao ty hoe,
And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
24 O ana’ondatio, ano ama’e ty hoe, Tane tsy nilioven-drehe, naho tsy nahavian’ orañe amy andron-kabosehakoy.
Son of man, say to her, You are a land on which no rain or thunderstorm has come in the day of wrath.
25 Mikitro-draha raty añivo’e ao o mpitoki’eo, manahake ty liona mitroñe, hañoridañe ty tsàtsa’e, hampibotseke sandriñe, hitavañe vara naho asiñe; maro ty nampinjarie’ iareo ramavoiñe añivo’e ao.
Her rulers in her are like a loud-voiced lion violently taking his food; they have made a meal of souls; they have taken wealth and valued property; they have made great the number of widows in her.
26 Mijoy o Fanoroakoo o mpisoro’eo naho tivà’ iareo o rahako miavakeo: tsy ambaha’ iareo ty masiñe ami’ ty tsotra, mbore tsy toroa’ iareo te ino ty faly naho ty tsy faly, naho nanakona’ iareo maso o Sabatekoo vaho tivaeñe am’ iereo ao iraho.
Her priests have been acting violently against my law; they have made my holy things unclean: they have made no division between what is holy and what is common, and they have not made it clear that the unclean is different from the clean, and their eyes have been shut to my Sabbaths, and I am not honoured among them.
27 Manahake ty fitriboam-parasy i tsindro’ey o roandria’ eo, hampiori-dio naho hampianto sandriñe, hitavañe.
Her rulers in her are like wolves violently taking their food; putting men to death and causing the destruction of souls, so that they may get their profit.
28 Le fa pinako’ o mpitokio sokay izay, mionim-bande naho manikily fandañirañe, ami’ty hoe: Hoe t’Iehovà Talè, fe tsy nitsara t’Iehovà.
And her prophets have been using whitewash, seeing foolish visions and making false use of secret arts, saying, This is what the Lord has said, when the Lord has said nothing.
29 Mamorekeke ondati’ i taneio iereo, naho mampikametse; mbore tsoborè’ iareo o rarakeo naho o poi’eo vaho manindry ty renetane tsy aman-kahiti’e.
The people of the land have been acting cruelly, taking men's goods by force; they have been hard on the poor and those in need, and have done wrong to the man from a strange land.
30 Aa le nipay ondaty am’ iareo ao iraho hamboatse i kijoliy mañambone, hijohañe an-jeba’e ao ho amy taney añatrefako eo, tsy handrotsahako aze; f’ie tsy nahatrea.
And I was looking for a man among them who would make up the wall and take his station in the broken place before me for the land, so that I might not send destruction on it: but there was no one.
31 Aa le nadoako am’ iareo ty habosehako; nifongoreko amy afom-pifombokoy: o sata’ iareoo avao ty nadoako ami’ty añambone’ iareo, hoe t’Iehovà Talè.
And I let loose my passion on them, and have put an end to them in the fire of my wrath: I have made the punishment of their ways come on their heads, says the Lord.
