Ezekiela 33
1 Niheo amako ty tsara’ Iehovà manao ty hoe:
And there is a word of Jehovah unto me, saying,
2 O ana’ ondatio, misaontsia amo ana’ ondati’oo vaho ano ty hoe: Naho endesako fibara i taney, naho mangalake ondaty boak’ amo efe’eo, ondati’ i taney, naho hajadoko ho mpijilo’ iareo;
'Son of man, speak unto the sons of thy people, and thou hast said unto them: A land — when I bring in against it a sword, And the people of the land have taken one man out of their borders, And made him to them for a watchman.
3 le ie oni’e te miheo mb’amy taney mb’eo i fibaray, ho tiofe’e i antsivay hitalily am’ondatio,
And he hath seen the sword coming against the land, And hath blown with a trumpet, and hath warned the people,
4 le ndra ia ia mahajanjiñe ty fipopò’ i antsivay fe tsy mañaoñe i hatahata’ey; vaho maniotse aze añe ty fitorotosi’ i fibaray, le ho ama’e ty lio’e.
And the hearer hath heard the voice of the trumpet, and he hath not taken warning, And come in doth the sword, and taketh him away, His blood is on his head.
5 Jinanji’e ty feo i antsivay fe tsy hinao’e i hatahatay; ho ama’e i lio’ey, ie ho nandrombak’ay te hinao’e i hatahatay.
The voice of the trumpet he heard, And he hath not taken warning, his blood is on him, And he who took warning his soul hath delivered.
6 Aa naho oni’ i mpijiloy te miheo mb’eo i fibaray fe tsy tiofe’e i antsivay le tsy hatahataeñe ondatio, aa naho asiom-pibara t’indaty boak’am’ iereo ao, le hendeseñe ty amo tahi’eo indatiy; fe ho paiako am-pità’ i mpijiloy ty lio’e.
And the watchman, when he seeth the sword coming in, And he hath not blown with a trumpet, And the people hath not been warned, And come in doth a sword, And taketh away of them — a soul, He in his iniquity is taken away, And his blood from the hand of the watchman I require.
7 Ihe, ry ana’ ondatio, ty najadoko ho mpijilo i anjomba’ Israeley; aa le ho janjiñe’o ty taroñem-bavako vaho ho hatahatae’o ty amako iereo.
And thou, son of man, A watchman I gave thee to the house of Israel, And thou hast heard from My mouth a word, And thou hast warned them from Me.
8 Aa naho volañeko i lo-tserekey ty hoe, O ty lo-tsereke tia, toe havetrake irehe; aa naho tsy hatahatae’o i lo-tserekey ty amo sata-rati’eo, le hivetrake amo hakeo’eo re, fe ho paiako am-pità’o ty lio’e.
In My saying to the wicked, O wicked one — thou dost surely die, And thou hast not spoken to warn the wicked from his way, He — the wicked — in his iniquity doth die, And his blood from thy hand I require.
9 Aa naho talilie’o i lo-tserekey o sata-rati’ eo, hibalintoa’e, fe tsy ambohoa’e i sata’ey, le hikenkañe amo tahi’eo, fe ho rinomba’o ka ty fiai’o.
And thou, when thou hast warned the wicked of his way, to turn back from it, And he hath not turned back from his way, He in his iniquity doth die, And thou thy soul hast delivered.
10 Aa ihe ry ana’ondatio, misaontsia amy Anjomba’ Israeley: Le ano ty hoe: Hoe nahareo: Amantika o fiolàñe naho tahin-tikañeo, le fa mampinike an-tika. Aa vaho akore arè ty hiveloman-tika?
And thou, son of man, say unto the house of Israel: Rightly ye have spoken, saying: Surely our transgressions and our sins [are] on us, And in them we are wasting away, How, then, do we live?
11 Ano ty hoe am’iereo: Kanao velon-dRaho, hoe t’Iehovà Talè, Tsy mipay ty fikoromaha’ o lo-tserekeo iraho, fa t’ie hibalintoa amo sata’eo ho veloñe; mitoliha arè, mibalintoaña amo sata-rati’ areoo, fa ino ty hihomaha’ areo ry anjomba’ Israeleo?
Say unto them, I live — an affirmation of the Lord Jehovah, I delight not in the death of the wicked, But — in the turning of the wicked from his way, And he hath lived, Turn back, turn back, from your evil ways, Yea, why do ye die, O house of Israel?
12 Tovoño ty hoe, Ry ana’ ondatio, ano ty hoe o ana’ ondati’oo; Tsy haharombake ty vaño ty havañona’e amy andro iolà’ey; naho tsy hahatsikapy ty lo-tsereke i halò-tsere’ey amy andro ifotera’ey; vaho tsy hahaveloñe i vañoñey ty havañona’e amy andro andilara’ey.
And thou, son of man, say unto the sons of thy people: The righteousness of the righteous doth not deliver him in the day of his transgression, And the wickedness of the wicked, He doth not stumble for it in the day of his turning from his wickedness, And the righteous is not able to live in it in the day of his sinning.
13 Ie anoeko ty hoe i vañoñey, Toe ho velon-drehe; fa iatoa’e i havañona’ey vaho mandilatse, le tsy ho tiahy i hamarentane’ey; fa i hakeo nanoe’ey, ty hihomaha’e.
In My saying of the righteous: He surely liveth, And — he hath trusted on his righteousness, And he hath done perversity, All his righteous acts are not remembered, And for his perversity that he hath done, For it he doth die.
14 Aa naho hataoko ty hoe i lo-tserekey: Tsy mete tsy hikoromake irehe; le ie mibalintoa amo tahi’eo, naho manao ty fahiti’e naho ty havantañañe,
And in My saying to the wicked: Thou surely diest, And — he hath turned back from his sin, And hath done judgment and righteousness,
15 naho avaha’ i lo-tserekey i natsoa’ey, naho ampolie’e i nikamere’ey naho añaveloa’e o fañèn-kaveloñeo vaho tsy mandilatse ka, le toe ho velon-dre, fa tsy hikoromake.
(The pledge the wicked restoreth, plunder he repayeth, ) In the statutes of life he hath walked, So as not to do perversity, He surely liveth — he doth not die.
16 Leo raik’ amo hakeo nanoe’eo tsy hivoliliañe. Fa nanoe’e i havañonañey naho i havantañañey, le ho velon-dre.
None of his sin that he hath sinned is remembered to him, Judgment and righteousness he hath done, He doth surely live.
17 Fa hoe o ana-dahi’ ondati’oo, Tsy mahity ty sata’ i Talè; toe i sata’ iareoy ty tsy mahity.
And the sons of thy people have said: The way of the Lord is not pondered, As to them — their way is not pondered.
18 Naho miamboho amy havañona’ey ty vañoñe naho manao hakeo, le hivetrake.
In the turning back of the righteous from his righteousness, And he hath done perversity — he dieth for it.
19 Naho mibalintoa amo sata-rati’eo ty lo-tsereke, vaho manao ty havantañañe naho ty havañonañe; le ho velon-dre.
And in the turning back of the wicked from his wickedness, And he hath done judgment and righteousness, by them he liveth.
20 Fa anoe’ areo ty hoe, Tsy vantañe ty lala’ i Talè. Ry anjomba’ Israele, Ho zakaeko nahareo, songa ty amo sata’eo.
And ye have said: The way of the Lord is not pondered, Each according to his ways do I judge you, O house of Israel.'
21 Aa amy andro faha-lime’ i volam-paha folo’ i taom-paha-folo-ro’ ambi’ i fandrohiza’aiy, le niheo amako ty nahapolititse am’ Ierosalaime, le nanoa’e ty hoe, Fa rotsake i rovay.
And it cometh to pass, in the twelfth year — in the tenth [month], in the fifth of the month — of our removal, come in unto me doth one who is escaped from Jerusalem, saying, 'The city hath been smitten.'
22 Toe tamako ty fità’ Iehovà amy haleñe aolo’ ty nivotraha’ i nipolititsey, nanokake ty vavako aolo’ t’ie nipok’ amako amy maraiñey; aa le nisokake ty vavako le tsy nimoañe ka.
And the hand of Jehovah hath been unto me in the evening, before the coming in of the escaped one, and He openeth my mouth till the coming in unto me in the morning, and opened is my mouth, and I have not been silent again.
23 Niheo amako ty tsara’ Iehovà nanao ty hoe:
And there is a word of Jehovah unto me, saying,
24 O ana’ ondatio, hoe ty saontsi’ ondaty mimoneñe an-dratraratra’ Israele ao, Raike t’i Avrahame, le nifanaña’e i taney, fe maro tikañe, vaho natolotse an-tika ho fanañañe i taney.
'Son of man, the inhabitants of these wastes on the ground of Israel are speaking, saying: Alone hath been Abraham — and he possesseth the land, and we [are] many — to us hath the land been given for a possession.
25 Aa le isaontsio ty hoe, Hoe ty nafè’ Iehovà Talè; Fikamà’ areo ty raha aman-dio naho fiandrà’ areo o samposampo’ areoo, vaho mampiori-dio; aa ho fanaña’ areo hao i taney?
Therefore say unto them: Thus said the Lord Jehovah: With the blood ye do eat, And your eyes ye lift up unto your idols, And blood ye shed, and the land ye inherit!
26 Ie miato amy fibara’ areoy, mikitro-draha raty, vaho songa mandeotse ty tañanjomban-drañe’e; aa vaho ho hanaña’ areo hao i taney?
Ye have stood on your sword, Ye have done abomination, Each the wife of his neighbour ye have defiled, And the land ye possess!
27 Isaontsio ty hoe: Inao ty nafè’ Iehovà Talè: Kanao velon-dRaho, toe ho tsingoroem-pibara o an-dratraratrao, le ho fahanako o bibio hampibotseke ty an-kivok’ ao, naho hampivetrahe’ ty angorosy o an-kijoly vaho an-dakatoo.
Thus dost thou say unto them: Thus said the Lord Jehovah: I live — do not they who [are] in the wastes by the sword fall? And they who [are] on the face of the field, To the beast I have given for food, And they who are in strongholds and in caves by pestilence die.
28 Fa hanoeko ratraratra naho bangìñe i taney, le hijihetse ty firengevoha’ i haozara’ey; le ho koake ty vohi’ Israele, tsy ho amam-piranga.
And I have made the land a desolation and an astonishment, And ceased hath the excellency of its strength, And desolated have been mountains of Israel, Without any one passing through.
29 Le ho fohi’ iereo te Izaho Iehovà, naha-bangiñe naho ratraratra i taney ty amo haloloañe nanoe’ iereoo.
And they have known that I [am] Jehovah, In My making the land a desolation and an astonishment, For all their abominations that they have done.
30 Aa ihe, ry ana’ ondatio, Mbe mifosa azo marine’ o kijolio naho an-dala’ o anjombao o ana-dahi’ ondati’oo, sambe mivesoveso an-drahalahi’e ty hoe: Antao ito hijanjiñe ty tsara aboak’ Iehovà.
And thou, son of man, the sons of thy people who are speaking about thee, By the walls, and in openings of the houses, Have spoken one with another, each with his brother, Saying: Come in, I pray you, And hear what [is] the word that cometh out from Jehovah.
31 Aa le hiropak’ ama’o hoe firimboña’ ondaty hiatrek’ azo ondatikoo naho ho janjiñe’ iereo o saontsi’oo, fe tsy hanoe’ iereo; amy te mitsiriry avao o falie’eo, naho mañorike ty fitsikiriha’ iareo o tro’eo.
And they come in unto thee as the coming in of a people, And they sit before thee — My people, And have heard thy words, and they do them not, For doting loves with their mouth they are making, After their dishonest gain their heart is going.
32 Ingo manahake te mpibekom-pikokoañe am’ iereo irehe, talango-am-peo, mahafititike marovany; toe tsendreñe’ iareo o saontsi’oo, fe tsy hanoe’ iereo.
And lo, thou [art] to them as a singer of doting loves, A pleasant voice, and playing well on an instrument, And they have heard thy words, and they are not doing them.
33 Aa ie mifetsake izay; (heheke te ho tondroke), le ho fohi’ iereo te tañivo’ iareo ao ty mpitoky.
And in its coming in — lo, it hath come, And they have known that a prophet hath been in their midst!'
