Ezekiela 8
1 Ie tamy andro faha-lime’ i volam-pahaene’ i taom-pahaeneñey, izaho nitobok’ an-kibohoko ao, naho niambesatse aoloko eo o roandria’ Iehodào, te niheo amako ty fità’ Iehovà Talè.
On the fifth day of the sixth month of the sixth year, I was sitting in my house with the elders of Judah and the power of the Lord God came over me there.
2 Aa le naheoko ty manahake vinta’ ondaty, naho hoe afo ty ambane’ o toha’eo, vaho hoe fireandrean-torisìke vinañe ty ambone’ o toha’eo.
I looked around and saw a being that looked like a man. From what seemed to be his waist downwards, he looked like fire. From what seemed to his waist upwards, he looked like brightly glowing metal.
3 Nahiti’e amako ty nanahake fitàñe naho rinambe’e iraho ami’ty orim-bòloko; naho naonjo’ i Tiokey añivo’ ty tane toy naho i likerañey vaho nendese’e añ’ aroñaron’ Añahare mb’e Ierosalaime mb’amy fimoahañe an-kiririsa añate’e miatrek’ avaratsey mb’eo, amy fitoboha’ i sarem-pamarahiañe manigìke farahieñeiy,
He reached out what seemed to be a hand and picked me up by my hair. The Spirit took me up into the sky, and in the vision God was giving me he carried me to Jerusalem, to the entrance of the north gate of the Temple's inner courtyard, where the offensive idol that made God angry had been placed.
4 le ingo te tao ty engen’ Añahare’ Israele, manahake i aroñaroñe nitreako a montoñe añey.
I saw the glory of the God of Israel there, just like I had in the vision I'd seen in the valley.
5 Le hoe re tamako, O ana’ ondatio, ampiandrao mañavaratse o fihaino’oo. Aa le niandra nañavaratse iraho, le inge, avara’ i fimoaham-ban-kitreliy, an-tsarirañe eo i sarem-pamarahiañey.
“Son of man,” he told me, “now look to the north.” So I looked to the north, and in the entrance to the north of the Altar Gate I saw this idol that angered God.
6 Le hoe re tamako, O ana’ ondatio, isa’o hao o anoe’ iereoo? o hativañe jabajaba anoe’ i anjomba’ Israele atoa handroahañ’ ahy lavitse i toeko miavakeio? F’ie hahaisake hativañe lombolombo izay.
“Son of man,” he said to me, “can you see what they are doing? Look at the disgusting sins the people of Israel are committing that are driving me far away from my sanctuary? But you're going to see even more disgusting sins than these!”
7 Aa le nendese’e mb’an-dala’ i kiririsay; ie nenteako, le ingo ty hirike amy rindriñey.
He took me to the entrance to the Temple courtyard. As I looked around, I saw a hole in the wall.
8 Le hoe re amako, O ana’ ondatio, halio o rindriñeo; aa ie nihalieko i rindriñey, hehe ty lalañe.
“Son of man,” he told me, “pull the wall apart.” So I pulled the wall apart and found a doorway.
9 Le hoe re amako, Miheova, hahaisake ty haleoran-kativañe anoe’ iareo am-po’e ao.
He told me, “Go through the wall and see the evil and disgusting things they are doing in here.”
10 Aa le nimoahako vaho nahatrea, te ingo nanitsike i rindriñey ty sare-sokitse ze karazan-draha milaly naho biby mampangorìñe naho ze fonga samposampo’ i anjomba’ Israeley,
So I went through the wall and saw carved images covering the walls, representing all kinds of reptiles and disgusting animals, as well as all the idols worshiped by the people of Israel.
11 le nijohañe añatrefa’ irezay eo ty androanavy fitompolo’ i anjomba’ Israeley, naho añivo’ iereo eo ty nijohaña’ Iaazanià ana’ i Safane, songa fitàñe amam-pañembohañe vaho nionjoñe mañambone ty rahon-katoen-emboke nilodolodo.
Seventy elders of the house of Israel were standing in front of them, including Jaazaniah son of Shaphan. They all were holding censers, producing a sweet-smelling cloud of incense that rose above them.
12 Le hoe re tamako, O ana’ondatio, isa’o hao o anoe’ o androanavin’ anjomba’ Israeleo añ’ieñeo, songa ondaty an-dakaton-tsare ao? fa hoe iereo, Tsy mahavazoho an-tika t’Iehovà; fa naforintse’ Iehovà ty tane toy.
“Son of man,” he said to me, “can you see what the elders of the people of Israel are doing here in the dark, with each one worshiping in the shrine room of his own idol? This is what they're saying: ‘The Lord can't see what we're doing; besides the Lord has abandoned our country!’”
13 Natovo’e ty hoe amako: Mitoliha indraike, hahaoniñe t’ie manao hativañe mandako izay.
The Lord went on to tell me, “You're going to see them doing even more disgusting things than these!”
14 Nente’e amy zao iraho mb’ amy fimoahañe an-tsariran’ anjomba’ Iehovà mitolik’ avaratsey mb’eo, le hehe ty rakemba maro miambesatse eo mirovetse amy Tamoze.
Then he took me to the north entrance of the Lord's Temple. I saw women sitting there, weeping for the god Tammuz.
15 Le hoe re amako, O ana’ ondatio, oni’o hao zao? aa le mitoliha indraike hahaoniñe mandikoatse izay.
“Son of man,” he said to me, “have you seen this? But you're going to see even more disgusting things than these!”
16 Aa le nendese’e mb’an-kiririsa añate’ i anjomba’ Iehovày, le hehe ty lahilahy roapolo-lim’ amby varañe am-pimoahañe an-kivoho’ Iehovà eo, añivo’ ty lapalapa naho ty kitrely, miamboho amy kivoho’ Iehovà, mitolik’ atiñanañe ty lahara’ iareo, mijoro amy masoàndroy.
He took me to the inner courtyard of the Lord's Temple and right there at the entrance to the Temple, between the porch and the altar, were around twenty-five men. They had their backs to the Temple, and were facing towards the east. They were bowing in worship of the sun rising in the east.
17 Le hoe re amako, Mahaoniñe v’iheo, ana’ ondatio? Raha maivañe amy anjomba’ Iehodày hao ty anoe’ iereo o hativañe anoe’ iereo atoañeo? te tsitsife’ iereo fikatramoañe ty tane mbore mibalike hanigìke ty habosehako, ie mitoho-tseva añ’oro’e eo.
“Son of man,” he said to me, “have you seen this? The people of Judah aren't content just to do these disgusting things. They also commit violent crimes across the country and keep on making me angry. Look at how they're deliberately insulting me!
18 Aa le Izaho ka ty hanolotse leveleve; le tsy hiheve ty masoko, vaho tsy hiferenaiñako, le ndra t’ie mipoña-toreo an-tsofiko ao, tsy hanoin-dRaho.
As a result I will respond in anger. I won't treat them kindly; I won't be merciful to them. Even though they shout loudly for my help, I won't listen to them.”
