Ezekiela 9
1 Aa le napaza’e am-piarañanañañe an-tsofiko ao ty hoe, Ampombao mb’etoy o mpifehe’ ty rova toio, songa minday fialiañe mpijoy am-pità’e.
Then I heard Him call out in a loud voice, saying, “Draw near, O executioners of the city, each with a weapon of destruction in hand.”
2 Le ingo te nimb’ etoy ty lahilahy eneñe boak’ amy lalambey ambone mitolike mañavaratsey, songa indaty ninday fialiam-panjamanañe am-pità’e, ty raike nisikin-damba leny reketse tsifan-drano-mainte añ’ila’e eo; aa le nimoak’ ao iereo nijohañe marine’ i kitrely torisìkey eo.
And I saw six men coming from the direction of the Upper Gate, which faces north, each with a weapon of slaughter in his hand. With them was another man clothed in linen who had a writing kit at his side. And they came in and stood beside the bronze altar.
3 Le nionjoñe boak’ an-toe’e ambone’ o kerobeo ty engen’ Añahare’ Israele naho nivotrak’ an-tsarirañe eo vaho kinoi’e indaty misaroñe lamba-leny minday tsifan-drano-mainte añ’ ila’eoy;
Then the glory of the God of Israel rose from above the cherubim, where it had been, and moved to the threshold of the temple. And He called to the man clothed in linen who had the writing kit at his side.
4 le hoe t’Iehovà tama’e, Akia rangao i rovay, maneñateñà Ierosalaime, vaho tomboho alama ze ondaty miselekaiñe naho mitoreo ty amo hativañe anoeñe añivo’eo.
“Go throughout the city of Jerusalem,” said the LORD, “and put a mark on the foreheads of the men sighing and groaning over all the abominations committed there.”
5 Le hoe re amo ila’eo, am-pitsanoñako, Akia oriho re miranga amy rovay naho lafao; ko imetea’o hiheveam-pihaino, vaho ko mitretrè.
And as I listened, He said to the others, “Follow him through the city and start killing; do not show pity or spare anyone!
6 Zamano ty bey naho o ajalahio naho o somondrarao, o ajajao vaho o rakembao, fe ko harineañe ze tinombok’ alama; mifotora an-toeko miavak’ eo. Aa le nafoto’ iareo am’ondatio, amo androanavy aolo’ i kivohoio.
Slaughter the old men, the young men and maidens, the women and children; but do not go near anyone who has the mark. Now begin at My sanctuary.” So they began with the elders who were before the temple.
7 Le hoe re am’ iereo, Leoro i anjombay vaho atsafo an-dolo’ o zinamañeo i kiririsay; mionjona! Aa le nimb’eo iereo nampibaibay amy rovay ao.
Then He told them, “Defile the temple and fill the courts with the slain. Go forth!” So they went out and began killing throughout the city.
8 Ie amy zao, naho fa zinama’ iareo ondatio, izaho avao ty eo, le nihotrak’ an-tareheko iraho nipazake ty hoe, Hoke! ry Iehovà Talè! ho fonga rotsahe’o hao ty sehanga’ Israele ami’ty fampidoaña’o am’ Ierosalaime o haviñera’oo?
While they were killing, I was left alone. And I fell facedown and cried out, “Oh, Lord GOD, when You pour out Your wrath on Jerusalem, will You destroy the entire remnant of Israel?”
9 Aa hoe re amako, Losotse o hakeo’ anjomba’ Israele naho Iehodào, naho milopolopo lio i taney vaho lifo-keloke i rovay, ie nanoe’ iereo ty hoe, Naforintse’ Iehovà ty tane toy, vaho tsy mahavazoho t’Iehovà.
He replied, “The iniquity of the house of Israel and Judah is exceedingly great. The land is full of bloodshed, and the city is full of perversity. For they say, ‘The LORD has forsaken the land; the LORD does not see.’
10 Aa naho izaho, tsy hiheve ty masoko, tsy hitretrè, fa hondrohako am’iereo o sata’ iareoo.
But as for Me, I will not look on them with pity, nor will I spare them. I will bring their deeds down upon their own heads.”
11 Hehek’ amy zao indaty misaroñe lamba-leny reketse tsifan-drano-mainte añ’ila’eoy, namolily ty hoe, Nanoeko i namantoha’o ahiy.
Then the man clothed in linen with the writing kit at his side reported back, “I have done as You commanded.”
