Ezekiela 24
1 Niheo amako indraike, amy andro faha-folo’ i volam-paha-folo’ i taom-pahasiveiy, ty tsara’ Iehovà nanao ty hoe:
And in the ninth year, in the tenth month, on the tenth of the month, the word of Jehovah came unto me, saying,
2 O ana’ ondatio, sokiro ty añara ty andro: ty andro henanekeo: fa niarikatohe’ ty mpanjaka’ i Bavele ami’ty andro toy t’Ierosalaime.
Son of man, write thee the name of the day, of this selfsame day: on this selfsame day the king of Babylon draws near to Jerusalem.
3 Le saontsio an-tafatoño i anjombam-piolay ami’ty hoe: Hoe ty nafè Iehovà Talè; Atokono ty valàñe, atokono vaho añiliño rano;
And propose a parable unto the rebellious house, and say unto them, Thus saith the Lord Jehovah: Set on the pot, set [it] on, and also pour water into it.
4 atontono ama’e o patets-enao, ze fonga vonga’e soa, i hàto’ey naho i soro’ey; vaho liforo taolañe mafiry.
Gather the pieces thereof into it, every good piece, the thigh and the shoulder; fill [it] with the choice bones:
5 Endeso ty lengo’ i lia-raikey, aobo ambane’e ao o taolañeo, le atokono soa vaho ampikotrokotroheñe ampara’ te masake naho o taolañeo.
take the choice of the flock; and also [put] a pile of wood under it, for the bones; make it boil well, and let the bones of it seethe therein.
6 Le hoe ty nafè’ Iehovà Talè: Hankàñe amy rovan-dioy, amy valàñe ama-taim-piray ie mbe tsy niakara’ i taim-piray, akaro kiraikiraike o vonga’eo, tsy anoraham-pida.
Therefore thus saith the Lord Jehovah: Woe to the bloody city, to the pot whose rust is therein, and whose rust is not gone out of it! Bring it out piece by piece; let no lot fall upon it:
7 Fa mb’e ama’e ty lio’e; nadoa’e am-bato eo, fa tsy naili’e an-tane eo handembeke aze an-deboke.
for her blood is in the midst of her; she set it upon the bare rock; she poured it not upon the ground, to cover it with dust.
8 Hañonjona’e ty haviñerako naho hanigike ty fañondrohako; le napiteko am-bato eo i lio’ey tsy ho lembefañe.
That it might cause fury to come up to execute vengeance, I have set her blood upon the bare rock, that it should not be covered.
9 Aa le hoe ty nafè’ Iehovà Talè: Hekoheko amo rovan-dioo! Handrehetako afo misolebotse,
Therefore thus saith the Lord Jehovah: Woe to the bloody city! I also will make the pile great.
10 añoboño hatae, amiaño afo, masaho i henay, alaro fampafiriañe, vaho forototò o taola’eo;
Heap on the wood, kindle the fire, boil thoroughly the flesh, and spice it well, and let the bones be burned.
11 apok’ am-baen-afo eo i valàñe kapaikey ampara’ te mae, hampirekake ty torisi’e, hanodotse ty harefe’e hitranak’ ao, hampitomontoñe i harefe’ey.
Then set it empty upon its coals, that it may be hot, and the brass of it may burn, and that its filthiness may be molten in it, [and] that its rust may be consumed.
12 Nahamokotse aze avao fa nilesa, tsy niakatse i harefe’e maroy; mb’ añ’ afoy o harefe’eo.
She hath exhausted [her] labours, yet her great rust goeth not forth out of her: let her rust be in the fire.
13 Kanao nimaneako kotriñe amy hareñele’o maleotsey, ihe nifoneñe tsy halio, le toe tsy halio amo haleora’oo ampara’ te heneke ty fiforoforoako.
In thy filthiness is lewdness, for I have purged thee, and thou art not pure. Thou shalt no more be purged from thy filthiness, till I have satisfied my fury upon thee.
14 Izaho Iehovà ty nitsara. Hifetsake izay, Izaho ty hanao, tsy hipotake, tsy hitretre, tsy hiheve. O sata’oo naho o fañaveloa’oo ty izakako azo, hoe t’Iehovà Talè.
I Jehovah have spoken [it]: it shall come to pass, and I will do it; I will not go back, neither will I spare, nor will I repent. According to thy ways, and according to thy doings, shall they judge thee, saith the Lord Jehovah.
15 Le niheo amako ty tsara’ Iehovà nanao ty hoe:
And the word of Jehovah came unto me, saying,
16 O ana’ ondatio, Ingo te hahàko ama’o ty fañiriam-pihaino’o indrai-mipaoke; fa tsy handala irehe tsy hangololoike, vaho tsy ampiorihe’o ranom-pihaino.
Son of man, behold, I take away from thee the desire of thine eyes with a stroke; yet thou shalt not mourn nor weep, neither shall thy tears run down.
17 Mioremeña aman-tsiñe, ko mandala vilasy, rohizo ami’ty añambone’o ty sabaka’o, le hanao o fandia’oo, naho ko manakom-pivimby ambone, vaho ko mikama ty hane’ ondaty mandala.
Sigh in silence, make no mourning for the dead; bind thy turban upon thee, and put thy sandals upon thy feet, and cover not the beard, and eat not the bread of men.
18 Aa le nitaliliako amy maraiñey ondatio, le nivetrake hariva i valikoy; vaho nanoeko amy loak’ àndroy i nandiliañe ahiy.
— And I spoke unto the people in the morning; and at even my wife died. And I did in the morning as I was commanded.
19 Le hoe ondatio amako, Tsy ho taroñe’o ama’ay hao o anoe’o ama’ay zao?
And the people said unto me, Wilt thou not tell us what these things are to us, which thou doest?
20 Le tinoiko ty hoe, Niheo amako ty tsara’ Iehovà nanao ty hoe:
And I said to them, The word of Jehovah came unto me, saying,
21 Ano ty hoe amy anjomba’ Israeley, Hoe t’Iehovà Talè, Inao! ho tivàko i toeko miavakey, ty enge’ o haozara’ areoo, ty fisalalàm-pihaino’ areo, naho ty ravoravon-tro’ areo; hampikorovohe’ ty fibara o ana-dahy naho anak’ ampela nado’ areo añeo.
Say unto the house of Israel, Thus saith the Lord Jehovah: Behold, I will profane my sanctuary, the pride of your strength, the desire of your eyes, and your soul's longing; and your sons and your daughters whom ye have left behind shall fall by the sword.
22 Le hanoe’ areo i nanoekoy, tsy hitakom-pivimby vaho tsy ho kamae’ areo ty hanem-piferenaiña’ ondaty.
And ye shall do as I have done: ye shall not cover the beard, neither eat the bread of men;
23 Apoho añambone’ areo eo ty sabaka, vaho ampihanao o fandia’ areoo; tsy handala, tsy hirovetse; fe hinike ty amo tàhi’ areoo, vaho hifampitoreo.
and your turbans shall be upon your heads, and your sandals upon your feet: ye shall not mourn nor weep; but ye shall waste away in your iniquities and moan one toward another.
24 Le ho viloñe ama’ areo t’Iekezkele, ampanahafo amo nanoe’eo ty hanoe’areo: ie tondroke izay le ho fohi’ areo te Izaho Iehovà Talè.
Thus Ezekiel shall be unto you a sign; according to all that he hath done shall ye do: when it cometh, then ye shall know that I [am] the Lord Jehovah.
25 Ie amy zay ry Ana’ondatio, amy andro hitavanako ty haozara’ iareoy, ty firebehan-enge’e, ty fisalalàm-pihaino’e naho ty fitsakorean’arofo’e, o ana-dàhy naho anak’ ampela’ areoo.
And thou, son of man, shall it not be in the day when I take from them their strength, the joy of their glory, the desire of their eyes, and that whereunto they lift up their soul, their sons and their daughters,
26 Le homb’ ama’o amy andro zay ty nahafipoliotse, hampijanjiñ’ azo an-dravembia.
that in that day he that escapeth shall come unto thee, to cause [thine] ears to hear [it]?
27 Amy andro zay, le ho sokafem-palie irehe ty amy nahavoratsakey; tsy ho moañe ka, naho ho viloñe am’ iereo, vaho ho fohi’ iareo te Izaho Iehovà.
In that day shall thy mouth be opened to him that is escaped, and thou shalt speak, and be no more dumb. So shalt thou be a sign unto them; and they shall know that I [am] Jehovah.
