UHezekheli 12
1 Ilizwi likaThixo lafika kimi lisithi:
And it came [the] word of Yahweh to me saying.
2 “Ndodana yomuntu, uhlala phakathi kwabantu abahlamukayo. Balamehlo ukuba babone kodwa kababoni, njalo balendlebe ukuba bezwe kodwa kabezwa, ngoba bangabantu abahlamukayo.
O son of humankind in [the] midst of [the] house of rebellion you [are] dwelling whom eyes [belong] to them to see and not they see ears [belong] to them to hear and not they hear for [are] a house of rebellion they.
3 Ngakho-ke ndodana yomuntu, lungisa impahla zakho zasekuthunjweni njalo kuthi emini, bekhangele, uphume usuke lapho okhona uye kwenye indawo. Mhlawumbe bazazwisisa, lanxa beyindlu ehlamukayo.
And you O son of humankind prepare for yourself baggage of exile and go into exile by day to eyes their and you will go into exile from place your to a place another to eyes their perhaps they will see for [are] a house of rebellion they.
4 Ngezikhathi zemini, bekhangele, khuphela impahla zakho phandle zilungiselwe ukuya ekuthunjweni. Kuthi kusihlwa, bekhangele, uphume njengabaya ekuthunjweni.
And you will bring out baggage your like baggage of exile by day to eyes their and you you will go out in the evening to eyes their like goings out of exile.
5 Bekhangele, bhoboza umduli ukhuphele impahla zakho ngaphandle kwawo.
To eyes their dig yourself in the wall and you will bring out in it.
6 Zetshathe ehlombe bekhangele uhambe lazo kusihlwa. Mboza ubuso bakho ukuze ilizwe ungaliboni, ngoba sengikwenze waba luphawu endlini ka-Israyeli.”
To eyes their on a shoulder you will lift [it] up in the darkness you will bring [it] out face your you will cover and not you will see the land for a sign I have made you to [the] house of Israel.
7 Ngakho ngenza njengokulaywa kwami. Ngezikhathi zemini ngakhupha impahla zami zilungiselwe ukuya ekuthunjweni. Kusihlwa ngabhoboza umduli ngezandla zami. Impahla zami ngazikhuphela ngaphandle kuhwalala, ngizetshethe emahlombe ami bekhangele.
And I did so just as I was commanded baggage my I brought out like baggage of exile by day and in the evening I dug myself in the wall by hand in the darkness I brought [it] out on a shoulder I lifted [it] up to eyes their.
8 Ekuseni ilizwi likaThixo lafika kimi lisithi:
And it came [the] word of Yahweh to me in the morning saying.
9 “Ndodana yomuntu, indlu leyana ehlamukayo yako-Israyeli kayikubuzanga na yathi, ‘Wenzani na?’
O son of humankind ¿ not have they said to you [the] house of Israel [the] house of rebellion what? [are] you doing.
10 Wothi kubo, ‘Nanku okutshiwo nguThixo Wobukhosi: Izilo leli limayelana lenkosana eJerusalema kanye lendlu yonke ka-Israyeli ekhonale.’
Say to them thus he says [the] Lord Yahweh [is] the prince the oracle this in Jerusalem and all [the] house of Israel who they [are] in midst of them.
11 Wothi kubo, ‘Ngiluphawu lwesitshengiselo kini.’ Njengoba ngenzile, kuzakwenziwa kanjalo kubo. Bazakuya ekuthunjweni beyizigqili.”
Say I [am] sign your just as I have done so it will be done to them in exile in captivity they will go.
12 Oyinkosana phakathi kwabo uzakwetshatha impahla zakhe kuhwalala asuke, njalo imbobo izakwenziwa emdulini ukuba aphume ngayo. Uzamboza ubuso bakhe ukuze ilizwe angaliboni.
And the prince who [is] in midst of them to a shoulder he will lift up in the darkness so he may go out in the wall they will dig to bring out in it face his he will cover because that not he will see to the eye he the land.
13 Ngizamendlalela imbule lami, njalo uzabanjwa yisifu sami; ngizamusa eBhabhiloniya ilizwe lamaKhaladiya, kodwa kasoze alibone, njalo uzafela khona.
And I will spread net my over him and he will be caught in hunting net my and I will bring him Babylon towards [the] land of [the] Chaldeans and it not he will see and there he will die.
14 Ngizabahlakazela emimoyeni bonke labo abamhanqileyo, izisebenzi zakhe kanye lamabutho akhe wonke njalo ngizaxotshana labo ngiphethe inkemba.
And all [those] who [are] around him (help his *Q(K)*) and all troops his I will disperse to every wind and a sword I will draw after them.
15 “Bazakwazi ukuthi nginguThixo lapho sengibachithachithela phakathi kwezizwe njalo ngibahlakazela emazweni.
And they will know that I [am] Yahweh when scatter I them among the nations and I will disperse them among the lands.
16 Kodwa ngizaphephisa abalutshwana babo ekuhlaselweni yinkemba, indlala kanye lesifo, ukuze kuthi ezizweni abaya kuzo bazivume zonke izenzo zabo ezinengayo. Lapho-ke bazakwazi ukuthi nginguThixo.”
And I will leave over some of them people of number from [the] sword from [the] famine and from [the] pestilence so that they may recount all abominations their among the nations where they have gone there and they will know that I [am] Yahweh.
17 Ilizwi likaThixo lafika kimi lisithi:
And it came [the] word of Yahweh to me saying.
18 “Ndodana yomuntu, qhaqhazela nxa unatha amanzi akho.
O son of humankind food your in quaking you will eat and water your in trembling and in anxiety you will drink.
19 Yitsho ebantwini belizwe uthi: ‘Nanku okutshiwo nguThixo Wobukhosi mayelana lalabo abahlala eJerusalema kanye laselizweni lako-Israyeli: Bazakudla ukudla kwabo benqineka njalo banathe lamanzi abo bengelathemba, ngoba ilizwe lizaphundlwa konke okukulo ngenxa yodlakela lwabo bonke abahlala khona.
And you will say to [the] people of the land thus he says [the] Lord Yahweh of [the] inhabitants of Jerusalem concerning [the] land of Israel food their in anxiety they will eat and water their in horror they will drink so that it may be desolate land its from fullness its from [the] violence of all the inhabitants in it.
20 Amadolobho okuhlalwa kuwo azaqothulwa ilizwe lichitheke. Lapho-ke bazakwazi ukuthi nginguThixo.’”
And the cities inhabited they will be waste and the land a desolation it will become and you will know that I [am] Yahweh.
21 Ilizwi likaThixo lafika kimi lisithi:
And it came [the] word of Yahweh to me saying.
22 “Ndodana yomuntu, yisaga bani lesi na elilaso elizweni lako-Israyeli esithi: ‘Insuku ziyedlula njalo imibono yonke iba yize’?
O son of humankind what? [is] the proverb this to you on [the] land of Israel saying they are long the days and it perishes every vision.
23 Wothi kubo, ‘Nanku okutshiwo nguThixo Wobukhosi: Ngizasiqeda isaga lesi, njalo kabayikusitsho futhi ko-Israyeli.’ Wothi kubo, ‘Insuku sezisondele lapho imibono yonke izagcwaliseka khona.
Therefore say to them thus he says [the] Lord Yahweh I will make to cease the proverb this and not people will use as a proverb it again in Israel that except speak to them they have drawn near the days and [the] matter of every vision.
24 Ngoba akusayikuba lemibono yamanga futhi kumbe ubungoma benkohliso ko-Israyeli.
For not it will be again any vision of worthlessness and divination of flattery in [the] midst of [the] house of Israel.
25 Kodwa mina Thixo ngizakhuluma engikufunayo, njalo kuzagcwaliseka ngokuphangisa. Ngoba ensukwini zakho, wena ndlu ehlamukayo ngizagcwalisa loba kuyini engikutshoyo, kutsho uThixo Wobukhosi.’”
For - I Yahweh I will speak which I will speak a word so it may be done not it will be postponed again for in days your O house of rebellion I will speak a word and I will do it [the] utterance of [the] Lord Yahweh.
26 Ilizwi likaThixo lafika kimi lisithi:
And it came [the] word of Yahweh to me saying.
27 “Ndodana yomuntu, indlu ka-Israyeli ithi, ‘Umbono awubonayo ngoweminyaka eminengi kusukela khathesi, njalo uphrofetha ngesikhathi esizayo esikhatshana kakhulu.’
O son of humankind there! [the] house of Israel [are] saying the vision which he [is] seeing [is] of days many and of times distant he [is] prophesying.
28 Ngakho wothi kubo, ‘Nanku okutshiwo nguThixo Wobukhosi: Akukho lalinye ilizwi lamazwi ami elizaphuza; loba kuyini engikutshoyo kuzagcwaliseka, kutsho uThixo Wobukhosi.’”
Therefore say to them thus he says [the] Lord Yahweh not it will be postponed again all words my [that] which I will speak a word so it may be done [the] utterance of [the] Lord Yahweh.
