Yexesqeel 23

1 Oo haddana Eraygii Rabbiga ayaa ii yimid isagoo leh,

Again the word of the LORD came to me, saying,

2 Wiilka Aadamow, waxaa jiray laba naagood oo isku hooyo ah.

“Son of man, there were two women, daughters of the same mother,

3 Oo dhillanimo bay Masar ku sameeyeen, oo intii ay yaryaraayeen ayay dhilloobeen. Halkaasna naasahoodii waa lagu tuujiyey, oo halkaasaa ibihii naasaha ee bikradnimadooda lagu nabareeyey.

and they played in Egypt, prostituting themselves from their youth. Their breasts were fondled there, and their virgin bosoms caressed.

4 Oo labadooda tan weyn waxaa la odhan jiray Aaholaah, oo walaasheed magaceeduna wuxuu ahaa Aaholiibaah, oo kuwaygay noqdeen, oo waxay dhaleen wiilal iyo gabdho. Haddaba magacyadoodu waa sidan, Aaholaah waa Samaariya, oo Aaholiibaahna waa Yeruusaalem.

The older was named Oholah, and her sister was named Oholibah. They became Mine and gave birth to sons and daughters. As for their identities, Oholah is Samaria, and Oholibah is Jerusalem.

5 Aaholaah waxay dhillaysatay iyadoo taydii ah, oo waxay caashaqday kuwii iyada jeclaa ee reer Ashuur oo deriska la ahaa,

Oholah prostituted herself while she was still Mine. She lusted after her lovers, the Assyrians—warriors

6 kuwaas oo dhar buluug ah xidhnaa, oo ahaa saraakiil iyo taliyayaal, oo kulligood dhallinyaro suurad wacan ahaa, oo ahaa fardooley fardo fuushan.

clothed in blue, governors and commanders, all desirable young men, horsemen mounted on steeds.

7 Oo iyadu kulligood bay ka dhillaysatay, kuwaasoo kulligood ahaa raggii Ashuur ee ugu wacanaa, oo ku alla kii ay caashaqday iyo sanamyadoodii oo dhanba way isugu nijaasaysay.

She offered sexual favors to all the elite of Assyria. She defiled herself with all the idols of those for whom she lusted.

8 Oo iyadu innaba kama ay tegin dhillanimadeedii tan iyo markay Masar joogtay, waayo, iyadoo yar ayay la seexdeen, oo ibihii naasaha ee bikradnimadeeda way nabareeyeen, oo dhillanimadoodii ayay iyada ku kor shubeen.

She did not give up the prostitution she began in Egypt, when men slept with her in her youth, caressed her virgin bosom, and poured out their lust upon her.

9 Oo sidaas daraaddeed waxaan u gacangeliyey kuwii iyada jeclaan jiray ee reer Ashuur oo ay caashaqday.

Therefore I delivered her into the hands of her lovers, the Assyrians for whom she lusted.

10 Kuwaasu cawradeedii bay soo bandhigeen, oo waxay qaateen wiilasheedii iyo gabdhaheedii, iyadiina seef bay ku dileen, oo magaceediina magac xun buu dumarka dhexdiisa ku noqday, waayo, xukummo baa lagu soo dejiyey.

They exposed her nakedness, seized her sons and daughters, and put her to the sword. Thus she became a byword among women, and they executed judgment against her.

11 Oo walaasheed Aaholiibaahna waxaas way aragtay, laakiinse iyadu way kaga sii darnayd caashaqeedii, oo xagga dhillanimadana way ka sii darnayd dhillanimada walaasheed.

Her sister Oholibah saw this, yet in her lust and prostitution she was more depraved than her sister.

12 Waxay caashaqday kuwii reer Ashuur ee deriska la ahaa, oo ahaa saraakiil iyo taliyayaal si qurux badan u xidhan, oo ahaa fardooley fardo fuushan, oo kulligood wada ahaa dhallinyaro suurad wacan.

She too lusted after the Assyrians—governors and commanders, warriors dressed in splendor, horsemen riding on steeds, all desirable young men.

13 Oo anigu waxaan arkay inay nijaasowday, oo ay labadoodiiba isku jid qaadeen.

And I saw that she too had defiled herself; both of them had taken the same path.

14 Dhillanimadeediina way sii kordhisay, waayo, waxay aragtay niman derbiga ku taswiiran, oo ahaa taswiirihii reer Kaldayiin oo asal guduudan lagu taswiiray,

But Oholibah carried her prostitution even further. She saw the men portrayed on the wall, images of the Chaldeans, engraved in vermilion,

15 oo dhexda dhex-xidhyo ugu xidhan yihiin, oo madaxana duubab la sibaaqeeyey ugu xidhan yihiin, oo kulligood la wada moodo amiirro u eg reer Baabuloon dalkoodu Kalday yahay.

wearing belts on their waists and flowing turbans on their heads; all of them looked like officers of the Babylonians in Chaldea, the land of their birth.

16 Oo isla markii ay aragtay ayay caashaqday, oo farriinqaadayaal dalkii Kalday bay ugu dirtay.

At the sight of them, she lusted for them and sent messengers to them in Chaldea.

17 Oo reer Baabuloon ayaa iyada sariirtii caashaqa ugu soo galay, oo dhillanimadoodii iyaday ku nijaaseeyeen, oo iyana iyagay la nijaasowday, oo nafsaddeediina iyagay ka go'day.

Then the Babylonians came to her, to the bed of love, and in their lust they defiled her. But after she had been defiled by them, she turned away in disgust.

18 Sidaasay dhillanimadeedii u soo bandhigtay oo cawradeedii daahay ka qaadday, markaasaa nafsaddaydii iyada uga go'day sidii ay nafsaddaydu walaasheed uga go'day oo kale.

When Oholibah openly prostituted herself and exposed her nakedness, I turned away from her in disgust, just as I had turned away from her sister.

19 Laakiinse waxay sii badisay dhillanimadeedii iyadoo wakhtigii yaraanteeda soo xusuusanaysa markay dalkii Masar ku dhillowday.

Yet she multiplied her promiscuity, remembering the days of her youth, when she had prostituted herself in the land of Egypt

20 Waxay caashaqday dhillayadeeda uu jiidhkoodu yahay sida jiidhka dameerrada, oo ay shahwaddooduna tahay sida shahwadda fardaha oo kale.

and lusted after their lovers, whose genitals were like those of donkeys and whose emission was like that of stallions.

21 Oo sidaas ayaad u soo xusuusatay sharkii yaraantaada markay Masriyiintu ibihii naasahaaga ee yaraantaada nabarayn jireen.

So you revisited the indecency of your youth, when the Egyptians caressed your bosom and pressed your young breasts.

22 Sidaas daraaddeed Sayidka Rabbiga ahu wuxuu leeyahay, Aaholiibaahay, bal ogow, kuwii ku caashaqi jiray ayaan kugu soo kicin doonaa, kuwaasoo ay naftaadu ka go'day, oo iyagaan dhinac kasta kaaga soo dayn doonaa,

Therefore, Oholibah, this is what the Lord GOD says: ‘I will incite your lovers against you, those from whom you turned away in disgust. And I will bring them against you from every side—

23 kuwaasoo ah reer Baabuloon, iyo reer Kaldayiin oo dhan, iyo Feqood, iyo Shooca, iyo Qooca, iyo reer Ashuur oo dhan oo iyaga la jira, oo kulligood ah rag dhallinyaro ah oo suurad wacan oo ah saraakiil iyo taliyayaal, iyo amiirro, iyo rag caan ah, oo kulligood fardo fuushan.

the Babylonians and all the Chaldeans, the men of Pekod, Shoa, and Koa, and all the Assyrians with them—all desirable young men, governors and commanders, officers and men of renown, mounted on horses.

24 Oo waxay kugula soo duuli doonaan hub iyo gaadhifardood iyo giraangiro iyo guuto dad, oo hareerahaaga oo dhan ayay kaaga soo kici doonaan iyagoo wata gaashaan weyn, iyo gaashaan yar, iyo koofiyad bir ah, oo waxaan iyaga u dhiibi doonaa xukun, oo waxay kuu xukumi doonaan sida ay xukummadoodu yihiin.

They will come against you with a host of peoples, with weapons, chariots, and wagons. They will array themselves against you on every side with buckler and shield and helmet. I will delegate judgment to them, and they will punish you according to their own standards.

25 Oo waxaan kugu soo dayn doonaa xanaaqayga masayrka ah, oo iyaguna cadho bay kugula macaamiloon doonaan. Waxay kaa gooyn doonaan sanka iyo dhegaha, oo intii kaa hadhaana seef bay ku dhici doontaa. Waxayna kaxaysan doonaan wiilashaada iyo gabdhahaagaba, oo intii kaa hadhana dab baa baabbi'in doona.

And I will set My jealous rage against you, and they will deal with you in fury. They will cut off your noses and ears, and your survivors will fall by the sword. They will seize your sons and daughters, and your remnant will be consumed by fire.

26 Oo weliba dharkaaga way kaa wada muruxsan doonaan, oo jowharadahaaga qurxoonna way kaa furan doonaan.

They will strip off your clothes and take your fine jewelry.

27 Oo sidaasaan kaaga joojin doonaa sharkaagii iyo dhillanimadaadii aad dalka Masar ka keentay, si aadan indhahaaga kor ugu taagin, oo aadan Masar kol dambe soo xusuusan.

So I will put an end to your indecency and prostitution, which began in the land of Egypt, and you will not lift your eyes to them or remember Egypt anymore.’

28 Waayo, Sayidka Rabbiga ahu wuxuu leeyahay, Bal eeg, waxaan kugu ridi doonaa gacantii kuwa aad neceb tahay, iyo gacantii kuwii ay nafsaddaadu ka go'day.

For this is what the Lord GOD says: ‘Surely I will deliver you into the hands of those you hate, from whom you turned away in disgust.

29 Iyagu si nacayb badan ayay kugula macaamiloon doonaan, oo wixii aad ku hawshootay oo dhanna way kaa qaadan doonaan, oo waxay kaa tegi doonaan adigoo qaawan oo aan dednayn. Oo cawradii dhillanimadaadana daahaa laga qaadi doonaa, xataa sharkaaga iyo dhillanimadaadaba.

They will treat you with hatred, take all for which you have worked, and leave you naked and bare, so that the shame of your prostitution will be exposed. Your indecency and promiscuity

30 Waxyaalahaas waa lagugu samayn doonaa, maxaa yeelay, dhillanimo baad quruumaha la daba gashay, oo sanamyadooda waad ku nijaasowday.

have brought these things upon you, because you have prostituted yourself with the nations and defiled yourself with their idols.

31 Waxaad qaadday jidkii walaashaa, oo sidaas daraaddeed koobkeedii gacantaan kuu gelin doonaa.

Because you have followed the path of your sister, I will put her cup into your hand.’

32 Sayidka Rabbiga ahu wuxuu leeyahay, Waxaad cabbi doontaa walaashaa koobkeedii dheeraa oo weynaa, oo fudaydsasho baa laguugu qosli doonaa oo waa lagu quudhsan doonaa, waayo, wuu buuxaa.

This is what the Lord GOD says: ‘You will drink your sister’s cup, a cup deep and wide. It will bring scorn and derision, for it holds so much.

33 Aad baad u sakhraami doontaa oo murug baa kaa buuxsami doonta, oo waxaad ku cabbi doontaa koobkii yaabka iyo baabba'da, kaasoo ah koobkii walaashaa Samaariya.

You will be filled with drunkenness and grief, with a cup of devastation and desolation, the cup of your sister Samaria.

34 Waad cabbi doontaa, oo weliba waad heenheensan doontaa, oo burburkiisana waad ruugi doontaa, oo naasahaagaad jiidi doontaa, waayo, Sayidka Rabbiga ahu wuxuu leeyahay, Aniga ayaa saas ku hadlay.

You will drink it and drain it; you will dash it to pieces, and tear your breasts. For I have spoken,’

35 Sidaas daraaddeed Sayidka Rabbiga ahu wuxuu leeyahay, Waad i illowday oo dhabarkaaga gadaashiisaad igu xoortay, sidaas daraaddeed waa inaad sharkaaga iyo dhillanimadaadaba u xambaarataa.

Therefore this is what the Lord GOD says: ‘Because you have forgotten Me and have cast Me behind your back, you must bear the consequences of your indecency and prostitution.’”

36 Oo weliba Rabbigu wuxuu kaloo igu yidhi, Wiilka Aadamow, Aaholaah iyo Aaholiibaah miyaad xukumi doontaa? Bal waxyaalahooda karaahiyada ah u sheeg.

Then the LORD said to me: “Son of man, will you pass judgment against Oholah and Oholibah? Then declare to them their abominations.

37 Waayo, way sinaysteen, oo dhiig baa gacmahooda ku jira, oo sanamyadoodana way ka sinaysteen, oo wiilashoodii ay ii dhaleenna dab bay u dhex marsiiyeen si ay u baabba'aan aawadeed.

For they have committed adultery, and blood is on their hands. They have committed adultery with their idols. They have even sacrificed their children, whom they bore to Me, in the fire as food for their idols.

38 Oo weliba saasoo kalay igu sameeyeen. Iyagu isku maalin ayay meeshaydii quduuska ahayd nijaaseeyeen, oo sabtiyadaydiina wax nijaas ah bay ka dhigeen.

They have also done this to Me: On that very same day, they defiled My sanctuary and profaned My Sabbaths.

39 Waayo, markay carruurtoodii sanamyadooda u qaleen ayay isla maalintaasba meeshaydii quduuska ahayd u soo galeen inay nijaaseeyaan, oo bal eeg, waxaas ayay gurigayga dhexdiisa ku sameeyeen.

On the very day they slaughtered their children for their idols, they entered My sanctuary to profane it. Yes, they did this inside My house.

40 Oo weliba rag baad meel fog uga cid dirsatay, oo waxaa loo diray wargeeye, oo bal eeg, iyana way yimaadeen, oo iyaga aawadood ayaad isu soo maydhay, oo u indhakuushatay, oo wax baad isugu sharraxday,

Furthermore, you sisters sent messengers for men who came from afar; and behold, when they arrived, you bathed for them, painted your eyes, and adorned yourself with jewelry.

41 oo waxaad ku fadhiisatay sariir haybad badan oo miis horteeda lagu soo diyaarshay, kaasoo aad fooxaygii iyo saliiddaydii saartay.

You sat on a couch of luxury with a table spread before it, on which you had set My incense and My oil,

42 Oo waxaa iyada la jiray codka dadka faraha badan, oo raaxaysan, oo dadkii faraha badnaana waxaa la yimid sakhraamiin cidlada laga keenay, oo waxay gacmaha u geliyeen dugaagado, oo madaxana taaj qurux badan bay u saareen.

accompanied by the sound of a carefree crowd. Drunkards were brought in from the desert along with men from the rabble, who put bracelets on your wrists and beautiful crowns on your head.

43 Markaasaan tii sinada ku gabowday ka idhi, Miyey haddana ka sinaysan doonaan, oo iyaduse miyey iyaga ka dhillaysan doontaa?

Then I said of her who had grown old in adulteries: ‘Now let them use her as a prostitute, for that is all she is!’

44 Laakiinse iyadii waxay ugu galeen sidii naag dhillo ah loogu galo oo kale, oo sidaasay ugu galeen naagihii sharka ahaa oo ahaa Aaholaah iyo Aaholiibaah.

And they slept with her as with a prostitute; they slept with Oholah and Oholibah, those lewd women.

45 Oo ragga xaqa ahu waxay iyaga u xukumi doonaan sida dhillooyin iyo naago dhiig galay loo xukumo oo kale, maxaa yeelay, iyagu waa dhillooyin, oo gacmahoodana dhiig baa ku yaal.

But righteous men will sentence them to the punishment of those who commit adultery and bloodshed, because they are adulteresses with blood on their hands.

46 Waayo, Sayidka Rabbiga ahu wuxuu leeyahay, Guuto baan iyaga ku soo kicin doonaa, oo cabsi iyo dhac baan u gacangelin doonaa.

This is what the Lord GOD says: ‘Bring a mob against them and consign them to terror and plunder.

47 Oo guutadaasu iyagay dhagxin doontaa oo seefaf ku kala jarjari doontaa, oo wiilashooda iyo gabdhahoodaba way wada layn doonaan, oo guryahoodana dab bay ku gubi doonaan.

The mob will stone them and cut them down with their swords. They will kill their sons and daughters and burn down their houses.

48 Oo sidaasaan shar dalka uga joojin doonaa, si naagaha oo dhan loo baro inaanay mar dambe sidii sharkiinnii oo kale u falin.

So I will put an end to indecency in the land, and all the women will be admonished not to imitate your behavior.

49 Oo sharkiinnii waa laydinka abaalmarin doonaa, oo dembiyadii sanamyadiinna ayaad xambaaran doontaan, oo markaasaad ogaan doontaan inaan anigu ahay Sayidka Rabbiga ah.

They will repay you for your indecency, and you will bear the consequences of your sins of idolatry. Then you will know that I am the Lord GOD.’”
