Ezekieri 23
1 Shoko raJehovha rakasvika kwandiri richiti,
And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
2 “Mwanakomana womunhu, kwakanga kuna vakadzi vaviri, vanasikana vamai vamwe chete.
Son of man, there were two women, daughters of one mother.
3 Vakava zvifeve muIjipiti, vakaita ufeve vachiri vadiki. Munyika imomo, mazamu oumhandara hwavo akabatwa-batwa uye zvipfuva zvavo zvakabatwa-batwa.
And they committed fornication in Egypt, in their youth they committed fornication: there were their breasts pressed down, and the teats of their virginity were bruised.
4 Zita romukoma rainzi Ohora, uye mununʼuna wake ainzi Ohoribha. Ivo vakanga vari vangu uye vakabereka vanakomana navanasikana. Ohora ndiye Samaria uye Ohoribha ndiye Jerusarema.
And their names were Oolla the elder, and Ooliba her younger sister: and I took them, and they bore sons and daughters. Now for their names, Samaria is Oolla, and Jerusalem is Ooliba.
5 “Ohora akaita ufeve iye achiri wangu; akachiva zvikomba zvake, ivo vaAsiria, varwi
And Oolla committed fornication against me, and doted on her lovers, on the Assyrians that came to her,
6 vakanga vakapfeka nguo dzebhuruu, vabati navatungamiri vehondo, vakanga vari majaya akanaka chose, uye vari vatasvi vamabhiza.
Who were clothed with blue, princes, and rulers, beautiful youths, all horsemen, mounted upon horses.
7 Akaita ufeve navapamusoro-soro vose veAsiria uye akazvisvibisa nezvifananidzo zvose zvavose vaaichiva.
And she committed her fornications with those chosen men, all sons of the Assyrians: and she defiled herself with the uncleanness of all them on whom she doted.
8 Haana kurega ufeve hwaakatangira kuIjipiti, paakavata navarume achiri muduku, vakabata-bata chipfuva choumhandara hwake uye vakadurura ruchiva rwavo pamusoro pake.
Moreover also she did not forsake her fornications which she had committed in Egypt: for they also lay with her in her youth, and they bruised the breasts of her virginity, and poured out their fornication upon her.
9 “Naizvozvo ndakamuisa kuzvikomba zvake, ivo vaAsiria, vaakanga achichiva.
Therefore have I delivered her into the hands of her lovers, into the hands of the sons of the Assyrians, upon whose lust she doted.
10 Vakamubvisa nguo akasara asina, ashama, vakatora vanakomana vake navanasikana ndokubva vamuuraya nomunondo. Akabva ava shumo pakati pavakadzi uye akarangwa.
They discovered her disgrace, took away her sons and daughters, and slew her with the sword: and they became infamous women, and they executed judgments in her.
11 “Mununʼuna wake Ohoribha akazviona izvozvo, asi nokuda kworuchiva rwake noufeve hwake, akanyanya ufeve kupfuura mukoma wake.
And when her sister Ooliba saw this, she was mad with lust more than she: and she carried her fornication beyond the fornication of her sister.
12 Akachivawo vaAsiria, vatongi navatungamiri vehondo, varwi vakapfeka zvakakwana, vatasvi vaifamba namabhiza, namajaya akanaka ose.
Impudently prostituting herself to the children of the Assyrians, the princes, and rulers that came to her, clothed with divers colours, to the horsemen that rode upon horses, and to young men all of great beauty.
13 Ndakaona kuti naiyewo akazvisvibisa; vose vari vaviri vakafamba nenzira imwe cheteyo.
And I saw that she was defiled, and that they both took one way.
14 “Asi akaenderera mberi noufeve hwake. Akaona mifananidzo yavarume pamadziro, mifananidzo yavaKaradhea mitsvuku,
And she increased her fornications: and when she had seen men painted on the wall, the images of the Chaldeans set forth in colours,
15 vana mabhandi akamonera muzviuno zvavo nenguwani dzemicheka dzairembera pamisoro yavo; vakaita samachinda engoro dzeBhabhironi, vagari veKaradhea.
And girded with girdles about their reins, and with dyed turbans on their heads, the resemblance of all the captains, the likeness of the sons of Babylon, and of the land of the Chaldeans wherein they were born,
16 Paakangovaona, akabva avachiva ndokutumira nhume kwavari muKaradhea.
She doted upon them with the lust of her eyes, and she sent messengers to them into Chaldea.
17 Ipapo vaBhabhironi vakauya kwaari, kunhoo yorudo, mukuchiva kwavo, vakamusvibisa. Shure kwokusvibiswa kwake navo, akavafuratira kwazvo.
And when the sons of Babylon were come to her to the bed of love, they defiled her with their fornications, and she was polluted by them, and her soul was glutted with them.
18 Paakaenderera mberi noufeve hwake pachena uye akaratidza kushama kwake, ndakamufuratira zvandisembura, sokufuratira kwandakanga ndaita mukoma wake.
And she discovered her fornications, and discovered her disgrace: and my soul was alienated from her, as my soul was alienated from her sister.
19 Asi akaramba achiwedzera unzenza hwake achirangarira mazuva ouduku hwake, paakanga ari chifeve muIjipiti.
For she multiplied her fornications, remembering the days of her youth, in which she played the harlot in the land of Egypt.
20 Akachiva zvikomba zvake ikoko, vane mitezo yakaita sembongoro uye zvinobuda mavari zvakaita sezvamabhiza.
And she was mad with lust after lying with them whose flesh is as the flesh of asses: and whose issue as the issue of horses.
21 Saka wakapanga unzenza hwouduku hwako, pawaiva muIjipiti chipfuva chako chakabatwa-batwa uye mazamu ouduku hwako akabatwa-batwa.
And thou hast renewed the wickedness of thy youth, when thy breasts were pressed in Egypt, and the papa of thy virginity broken.
22 “Naizvozvo, Ohoribha, zvanzi naIshe Jehovha: Ndichakumutsira zvikomba zvako kuti zvikurwise, ivo vawakasemburwa navo ukavafuratira, ndichavauyisa kuzorwa newe vachibva kumativi ose,
Therefore, Ooliba, thus saith the Lord God: Behold I will raise up against thee all thy lovers with whom thy soul hath been glutted: and I will gather them together against thee round about.
23 vaBhabhironi navaKaradhea vose, varume vePekodhi neveShowa neKowa, uye vaAsiria vose pamwe chete navo, majaya akanaka, vose vari vabati nevatungamiri vamauto, namachinda engoro navarume vezvigaro zvapamusoro, vose vakatasva mabhiza.
The children of Babylon, and all the Chaldeans, the nobles, and the kings, and princes, all the sons of the Assyrians, beautiful young men, all the captains, and rulers, the princes of princes, and the renowned horsemen.
24 Vachauya kuzorwa newe vaine zvombo, nengoro uye neboka ravanhu vazhinji, vachagadzirira kuti varwe newe kumativi ose nenhoo huru neduku uye nenguwani dzokurwa nadzo. Ndichakudzorera kwavari kuti urangwe, uye vachakuranga sezvakafanira mitemo yavo.
And they shall come upon thee well appointed with chariot and wheel, a multitude of people: they shall be armed against thee on every side with breastplate, and buckler, and helmet: and I will set judgment before them, and they shall judge thee by their judgments.
25 Ndichamutsa godo rangu kuti ndirwe newe, uye ivo vachakurwisa nehasha. Vachagura mhino yako nenzeve dzako, uye vakasara venyu vachaurayiwa nomunondo. Vachakutorerai vanakomana venyu navanasikana venyu, uye vachasara venyu vachaparadzwa nomoto.
And I will set my jealousy against thee, which they shall execute upon thee with fury: they shall cut off thy nose and thy ears: and what remains shall fall by the sword: they shall take thy sons, and thy daughters, and thy residue shall be devoured by fire.
26 Vachakubvisai nguo dzenyu uye vachakutorerai ukomba hwenyu hwakaisvonaka.
And they shall strip thee of thy garments, and take away the instruments of thy glory.
27 Saka ndichagumisa unzenza hwenyu noufeve hwamakatangira muIjipiti. Hamuchazotariri zvinhu izvi muchizvishuva kana kuzorangarira Ijipiti zvakare.
And I will put an end to thy wickedness in thee, and thy fornication brought out of the land of Egypt: neither shalt thou lift up thy eyes to them, nor remember Egypt any more.
28 “Nokuti zvanzi naIshe Jehovha: Ndava kuzokuisa mumaoko avanhu vaunovenga, kuna avo vawakafuratira wasemburwa navo.
For thus saith the Lord God: Behold, I will deliver thee into the hands of them whom thou hatest, into their hands with whom thy soul hath been glutted.
29 Ivo vachakuitira ruvengo vagokutorera zvinhu zvose zvawakashandira. Vachakusiya usina kupfeka wakashama, uye kunyadzisa kwoufeve hwako kuchaiswa pachena. Unzenza hwako nokupata kwako
And they shall deal with thee in hatred, and they shall take away all thy labours, and shall let thee go naked, and full of disgrace, and the disgrace of thy fornication shall be discovered, thy wickedness, and thy fornications.
30 zvakaisa izvi pamusoro pako, nokuti iwe wakachiva ndudzi ndokuzvisvibisa nezvifananidzo zvadzo.
They have done these things to thee, because thou hast played the harlot with the nations among which thou wast defiled with their idols.
31 Wakafamba nenzira yomununʼuna wako; saka ndichaisa mukombe wake muruoko rwako.
Thou hast walked in the way of thy sister, and I will give her cup into thy hand.
32 “Zvanzi naIshe Jehovha: “Uchanwa mukombe womukoma wako, mukombe mukuru wakadzika; uchakuvigira kusekwa nokumhurwa, nokuti une zvakawanda.
Thus saith the Lord God: Thou shalt drink thy sister’s cup, deep, and wide: thou shalt be had in derision and scorn, which containeth very much.
33 Uchazadzwa nokudhakwa nokusuwa, mukombe wokuparadza nokuputsa, mukombe womukoma wako Samaria.
Thou shalt be filled with drunkenness, and sorrow: with the cup of grief, and sadness, with the cup of thy sister Samaria.
34 Uchanwa zvokupedza kuti tsvai; uchauputsa ukava zvaenga uye uchacheka mazamu ako. Ndini ndazvitaura, ndizvo zvinotaura Ishe Jehovha.
And thou shalt drink it, and shalt drink it up even to the dregs, and thou shalt devour the fragments thereof, thou shalt rend thy breasts: because I have spoken it, saith the Lord God.
35 “Naizvozvo zvanzi naIshe Jehovha: Sezvo wakandikanganwa ukandirasira shure kwako, unofanira kuzvitakurira matambudziko ounzenza hwako noufeve hwako.”
Therefore thus saith the Lord God: Because thou hast forgotten me, and hast cast me off behind thy back, bear thou also thy wickedness, and thy fornications.
36 Jehovha akati kwandiri, “Mwanakomana womunhu unganditongerewo Ohora naOhoribha here? Ipapo uvazivise zvinonyangadza zvavanoita,
And the Lord spoke to me, saying: Son of man, dost thou judge Oolla, and Ooliba, and dost thou declare to them their wicked deeds?
37 nokuti vakaita ufeve uye ropa riri mumaoko avo. Vakaita ufeve nezvifananidzo zvavo; vakasvika pakubayira vana vavo, vavakandiberekera ini, kuti zvive zvokudya zvavo.
Because they have committed adultery, and blood is in their hands, and they have committed fornication with their idols: moreover also their children, whom they bore to me, they have offered to them to be devoured.
38 Vakaitawo izvi kwandiri: Panguva imwe cheteyo vakasvibisa nzvimbo yangu tsvene vakasvibisa maSabata angu.
Yea, and they have done this to me. They polluted my sanctuary on the same day, and profaned my sabbaths.
39 Pazuva ravakabayira vana vavo, kuzvifananidzo zvavo, vakapinda munzvimbo yangu tsvene vakaisvibisa. Ndizvo zvavakaita mumba mangu.
And when they sacrificed their children to their idols, and went into my sanctuary the same day to profane it: they did these things even in the midst of my house.
40 “Vakatuma kunyange nenhume kundodana varume uye pavakasvika iwe wakazvishambidza nokuda kwavo, ukazodza meso ako ndokuzvishongedza noukomba.
They sent for men coming from afar, to whom they had sent a messenger: and behold they came: for whom thou didst wash thyself, and didst paint thy eyes, and wast adorned with women’s ornaments.
41 Wakagara panhoo yakaisvonaka ine tafura yakagadzikwa pamberi payo pawakanga wakaisa zvinonhuhwira namafuta akanga ari angu.
Thou sattest on a very fine bed, and a table was decked before thee: whereupon thou didst set my incense, and my ointment.
42 “Mheremhere yavanhu vakanga vasina hanya yakanga yakamukomberedza: VaSabhea vakaunzwa kubva kugwenga pamwe chete navarume vaibva pamhomho yavanhu vezhowezhowe, uye vakashongedza mabhenguro mumaoko omukadzi nomununʼuna wake nekorona dzakaisvonaka pamisoro yavo.
And there was in her the voice of a multitude rejoicing: and to some that were brought of the multitude of men, and that came from the desert, they put bracelets on their hands, and beautiful crowns on their heads.
43 Ipapo ndakati pamusoro paiye akanga apera noufeve, ‘Zvino ngavamushandise sechifeve, nokuti ndizvo zvaari.’
And I said to her that was worn out in her adulteries: Now will this woman still continue in her fornication.
44 Ipapo vakavata naye. Sokuvata kunoita varume nechifeve, saizvozvo vakavata navakadzi nzenza, ivo vanaOhora naOhoribha.
And they went in to her, as to a harlot: so went they in unto Oolla, and Ooliba, wicked women.
45 Asi vanhu vakarurama vachavatonga nechirango chinopiwa vakadzi vanoita ufeve uye vanoteura ropa, nokuti ivo zvifeve uye ropa riri pamaoko avo.
They therefore are just men: these shall judge them as adulteresses are judged, and as shedders of blood are judged: because they are adulteresses, and blood is in their hands.
46 “Zvanzi naIshe Jehovha: Uyai neboka ravarwi vazovarwisa muvatyise uye muvapambe.
For thus saith the Lord God: Bring a multitude upon them, and deliver them over to tumult and rapine:
47 Mhomho ichavatema namabwe uye igovabaya neminondo; vachauraya vanakomana vavo navanasikana vavo vagopisa dzimba dzavo.
And lee the people stone them with stones, and let them be stabbed with their swords: they shall kill their sons and daughters, and their houses they shall burn with fire.
48 “Saka ndichagumisa unzenza panyika, kuti vakadzi vose vayambirwe vagorega kutevedzera.
And I will take away wickedness out of the land: and all women shall learn, not to do according to the wickedness of them.
49 Ucharangwa nokuda kwounzenza hwako uye uchatakura mubayiro wezvivi zvokufeva kwako. Ipapo uchaziva kuti ndini Ishe Jehovha.”
And they shall render your wickedness upon you, and you shall bear the sins of your idols: and you shall know that I am the Lord God.
