Ezekiela 3
1 Le hoe re tamako, O ana’ ondatio, kamao o zoe’oo, kamao ty boke peleke toy, vaho akia misaontsia añ’anjomba Israele.
He said to me, “Son of man, eat what you find. Eat this scroll, and go, speak to the house of Israel.”
2 Aa le sinokako ty vavako vaho nafantso’e ahy i pelekey.
So I opened my mouth, and he caused me to eat the scroll.
3 Le hoe re amako, O ana’ ondatio, ampihinano ty sarotro’o, vaho atsafo an-tsarotro’o ao ty peleke atoloko azo toy. Aa le nihaneko; vaho nimamy hoe tantele am-bavako ao.
He said to me, “Son of man, eat this scroll that I give you and fill your belly and your bowels with it.” Then I ate it. It was as sweet as honey in my mouth.
4 Le hoe re amako, O ana’ ondatio, akia mimoaha añ’ anjomba’ Israele ao vaho isaontsio o fivolakoo.
He said to me, “Son of man, go to the house of Israel, and speak my words to them.
5 Tsy nahitrike am’ ondaty lale-drehake ndra saro-pisaontsio irehe, fa mb’amy anjomba’ Israeley;
For you are not sent to a people of a strange speech and of a hard language, but to the house of Israel—
6 tsy amo kilakila’ ondaty aman-dañonañe miheotseo, ndra amam-pivola-aliheñe tsy haharendreha’o ty saontsi’e. Aa naho nampihitrifeko amy zay, toe ho nañaoñe azo iereo.
not to many peoples of a strange speech and of a hard language, whose words you can’t understand. Surely, if I sent you to them, they would listen to you.
7 Fe tsy te hijanjiñ’ azo i anjomba’ Israeley; amy t’ie tsy te hijanjiñ’ ahy; songa mamporohotse naho gan-troke ty anjomba’ Israele.
But the house of Israel will not listen to you, for they will not listen to me; for all the house of Israel are obstinate and hard-hearted.
8 Ingo te nampiontsoñontsoñeko ty lahara’o hatreatrè’o ty lahara’ iareo, naho nanoeko gañe ty fatram-bei’o hiatreatrea’e ty panda’ iareo.
Behold, I have made your face hard against their faces, and your forehead hard against their foreheads.
9 Mira ami’ty hamafen-tsafira te amo vato-pilakeo ty nanoeko ty fatram-bei’o; ko lonjetse amo fangarefa’ iareoo, ndra t’ie akiba-piola.
I have made your forehead as a diamond, harder than flint. Don’t be afraid of them, neither be dismayed at their looks, though they are a rebellious house.”
10 Nitovoña’e ty hoe, Rambeso añ’arofo’o ao naho janjiño an-dravembia’o ze hene tsara ho taroñeko;
Moreover he said to me, “Son of man, receive in your heart and hear with your ears all my words that I speak to you.
11 akia mimoaha añivo’ o mpirohio naho saontsio vaho talilio, Hoe ty nafè’ Iehovà Talè—ke hijanjiñe iereo, he tsy hañaoñe.
Go to them of the captivity, to the children of your people, and speak to them, and tell them, ‘This is what the Lord GOD says,’ whether they will hear, or whether they will refuse.”
12 Aa le rinambe’ i Tiokey mañambone iraho vaho tsinanoko am-bohoko ao ty feon-tsorotombahañe: Rengèñe ty enge’ Iehovà an-toe’e eo;
Then the Spirit lifted me up, and I heard behind me the voice of a great rushing, saying, “Blessed be the LORD’s glory from his place.”
13 naho ty feom-pifañoza’ o ela’ i raha veloñe reio naho ty feo’ o larò rekets’ am’ iareoo, vaho ty fipoñafan-kotroke ra’elahy.
I heard the noise of the wings of the living creatures as they touched one another, and the noise of the wheels beside them, even the noise of a great rushing.
14 Le nongahe’ i Tiokey naho nasese’e mb’eo, vaho nandeha amañ-embetse, aman-troke mitsovovoke; fa naozatse tamako ty fità’ Iehovà.
So the Spirit lifted me up, and took me away; and I went in bitterness, in the heat of my spirit; and the LORD’s hand was strong on me.
15 Le nivotrak’ amo mpirohy mpimoneñe e Telaviveao iraho, añ’olo i saka Kebarey eo, naho nitoboke am-piambesara’ iareo, vaho nidok’ eo an-kalonjeran-troke fito andro.
Then I came to them of the captivity at Tel Aviv who lived by the river Chebar, and to where they lived; and I sat there overwhelmed among them seven days.
16 Aa naho nimodo ty fito andro, le niheo amako ty tsara’ Iehovà nanao ty hoe:
At the end of seven days, the LORD’s word came to me, saying,
17 O ana’ondatio, fa tinendreko ho mpijilojilo amy anjomba’ Israeley, aa ie mijanjin-tsara boak’ am-bavako ao, le hatahatao ty amako iereo.
“Son of man, I have made you a watchman to the house of Israel. Therefore hear the word from my mouth, and warn them from me.
18 Aa naho anoeko ty hoe ty lo-tsereke: Toe hihomake irehe, f’ie tsy hatahatae’o tsy talilie’o, tsy amantopantohe’o i tsereheñey hienga o sata’e ratio, handrombak’ aiñe, aa le hikenkañe amo hakeo’eo indaty lo-tserekey, fe ho paiako am-pità’o ty lio’e.
When I tell the wicked, ‘You will surely die;’ and you give him no warning, nor speak to warn the wicked from his wicked way, to save his life, that wicked man will die in his iniquity; but I will require his blood at your hand.
19 Aa naho hatahatae’o ka i lo-tserekey, naho tsy ambolitio’e i sata’e ratiy ndra itsilea’e i fañaveloa’e ratiy, le hikenkañe amo tahi’eo re, fe naharombak’ ain-drehe.
Yet if you warn the wicked, and he doesn’t turn from his wickedness, nor from his wicked way, he will die in his iniquity; but you have delivered your soul.”
20 Ie ka, naho mifotetse amy hamarentane’ey t’ indaty vantañe vaho mandilatse, naho ampipoheko fampitsikapiañe aolo’e eo, le hikenkan-dre; aa kanao tsy hinatahata’o, le hikenkañe amo hakeo’eo ie tsy ho tiahy ka o sata soa nanoe’eo, fa ho paiako am-pità’o ty lio’e.
“Again, when a righteous man turns from his righteousness and commits iniquity, and I lay a stumbling block before him, he will die. Because you have not given him warning, he will die in his sin, and his righteous deeds which he has done will not be remembered; but I will require his blood at your hand.
21 Aa naho hatahatae’o ka i vañoñey tsy handilatse vaho tsy manao tahin-dre, le toe ho velon-dre, amy te nihaoñe’e i nahatahata’oy; vaho naharombak’ ain-drehe.
Nevertheless if you warn the righteous man, that the righteous not sin, and he does not sin, he will surely live, because he took warning; and you have delivered your soul.”
22 Tamako ty fità’ Iehovà; le hoe re tamako, Akia mb’amy montoñey añe vaho ho volañeko.
The LORD’s hand was there on me; and he said to me, “Arise, go out into the plain, and I will talk with you there.”
23 Aa le niongake iraho nimb’ amy montoñey mb’eo; ingo nijohañe eo ty enge’ Iehovà, hambañe amy enge nirendreko añ’olon-tsaka Kebare añey; vaho nibabok’ an-daharako.
Then I arose, and went out into the plain, and behold, the LORD’s glory stood there, like the glory which I saw by the river Chebar. Then I fell on my face.
24 Le nizilik’ amako i Arofoy, naho natroa’e an-tomboko eo; vaho nitsara amako, nanao ty hoe, Akia, misikadàña an-kivoho’o ao,
Then the Spirit entered into me and set me on my feet. He spoke with me, and said to me, “Go, shut yourself inside your house.
25 le ihe ana’ondaty, oniño te hapok’ ama’o ty taly vaho hamahotse azo iereo tsy mone hiavotse mb’ am’ondatio;
But you, son of man, behold, they will put ropes on you, and will bind you with them, and you will not go out among them.
26 le hampipiteheko an-dañilañi’o eo ty famele’o, le ho moan-drehe tsy hahaendake ondatio; amy te anjomba miola iereo.
I will make your tongue stick to the roof of your mouth so that you will be mute and will not be able to correct them, for they are a rebellious house.
27 Fe naho hivolañe ama’o iraho le ho sokafeko ty falie’o vaho hanoa’o ty hoe: Hoe t’Iehovà Talè; aa ze mete hijanjiñe, angao hijanjiñe; le ze mifoneñe tsy hijanjiñe, apoho hifoneñe; amy t’ie anjomba miola.
But when I speak with you, I will open your mouth, and you shall tell them, ‘This is what the Lord GOD says.’ He who hears, let him hear; and he who refuses, let him refuse; for they are a rebellious house.”
