Yexesqeel 23
1 Oo haddana Eraygii Rabbiga ayaa ii yimid isagoo leh,
A message from the Lord came to me, saying,
2 Wiilka Aadamow, waxaa jiray laba naagood oo isku hooyo ah.
“Son of man, there were once two women. They were 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.
They became prostitutes in Egypt. In fact, they were prostitutes from the time they were young. They allowed their virgin breasts to be fondled and their nipples squeezed.
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 girl was called Oholah, and her sister Oholibah. I married them both and they had sons and daughters. Oholah represents Samaria, and Oholibah represents 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 married to me. She wanted to have sex with her lovers, the Assyrians.
6 kuwaas oo dhar buluug ah xidhnaa, oo ahaa saraakiil iyo taliyayaal, oo kulligood dhallinyaro suurad wacan ahaa, oo ahaa fardooley fardo fuushan.
They were soldiers dressed in blue, leaders and commanders, all of them handsome young men in the cavalry.
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 gave away herself sexually to all the important men of Assyria. She made herself unclean by her worship of all the idols of those men she wanted to have sex with.
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 didn't stop her prostitution that she started in Egypt—men sleeping with her when she was young, squeezing her virgin breasts and using her to satisfy their sexual appetite.
9 Oo sidaas daraaddeed waxaan u gacangeliyey kuwii iyada jeclaan jiray ee reer Ashuur oo ay caashaqday.
So I handed her over to her lovers, the Assyrians she wanted to have sex with.
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 stripped her naked, took away her sons and daughters, and killed her with the sword. She became infamous among women, and they punished her.
11 Oo walaasheed Aaholiibaahna waxaas way aragtay, laakiinse iyadu way kaga sii darnayd caashaqeedii, oo xagga dhillanimadana way ka sii darnayd dhillanimada walaasheed.
Oholibah saw what happened to her sister, but she became even worse than her in her wanting sex and practicing prostitution.
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 also wanted to have sex with the Assyrians: their leaders and commanders, their splendidly-dressed soldiers—all of them handsome young men in the cavalry.
13 Oo anigu waxaan arkay inay nijaasowday, oo ay labadoodiiba isku jid qaadeen.
I saw that she had also made herself unclean—both sisters were doing the same thing.
14 Dhillanimadeediina way sii kordhisay, waayo, waxay aragtay niman derbiga ku taswiiran, oo ahaa taswiirihii reer Kaldayiin oo asal guduudan lagu taswiiray,
However, Oholibah's prostitution was even worse. She saw pictures of Babylonian soldiers wearing bright red uniforms painted on the wall.
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.
They were wearing belts on their waists and large turbans on their heads. They all looked like Babylonian officers in Chaldea, the country where they were born.
16 Oo isla markii ay aragtay ayay caashaqday, oo farriinqaadayaal dalkii Kalday bay ugu dirtay.
When she saw the paintings of them, she wanted to have sex with 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.
The Babylonians came to her and her love bed, and made her unclean with their sexual desire. However, after she had been dishonored by them, she rejected them 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 so blatantly prostituted herself, exposing herself naked, I turned away from her in disgust, just as I had done to her sister.
19 Laakiinse waxay sii badisay dhillanimadeedii iyadoo wakhtigii yaraanteeda soo xusuusanaysa markay dalkii Masar ku dhillowday.
But she practiced even more prostitution, remembering how she'd been a prostitute in Egypt when she was young.
20 Waxay caashaqday dhillayadeeda uu jiidhkoodu yahay sida jiidhka dameerrada, oo ay shahwaddooduna tahay sida shahwadda fardaha oo kale.
She wanted to have sex with her lovers who had genitals like donkeys and who ejaculated like stallions.
21 Oo sidaas ayaad u soo xusuusatay sharkii yaraantaada markay Masriyiintu ibihii naasahaaga ee yaraantaada nabarayn jireen.
You went back to the indecent acts when you were young, when the Egyptians squeezed your nipples and fondled 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,
So Oholibah, this is what the Lord God says: I'm going to encourage your lovers to attack you, those you rejected in disgust. I will bring them to attack you from every direction:
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 along with them—all handsome young men, leaders and commanders, chariot captains and important officers, all riding 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 attack you from the north, invading with a great army, chariots, and wagons. They will come with their shields and helmets and surround you. I will hand you over to them for punishment, and they will judge and punish you following their own laws.
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.
I feel so strongly about what you've done that I will oppose you, and they will treat you very badly. They will cut off your noses and ears, and they will kill those of you who are left. They will take away your sons and daughters as prisoners, and those of you who are left will be destroyed by fire.
26 Oo weliba dharkaaga way kaa wada muruxsan doonaan, oo jowharadahaaga qurxoonna way kaa furan doonaan.
They will tear off your clothes and take your beautiful 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.
I'm going to put a stop to your immorality and prostitution, which started in Egypt. You won't think longingly about those times, and you'll forget all about Egypt.
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: Believe it when I say that I'm going to hand you over to the people you hate, the ones you rejected 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. They will take away everything you've worked for, leaving you stark naked with nothing, so that so that the indecent acts of your prostitution will be exposed. Your immorality and prostitution
30 Waxyaalahaas waa lagugu samayn doonaa, maxaa yeelay, dhillanimo baad quruumaha la daba gashay, oo sanamyadooda waad ku nijaasowday.
is why all this has happened to you, because you acted as a prostitute with the nations and made yourself unclean by worshiping their idols.
31 Waxaad qaadday jidkii walaashaa, oo sidaas daraaddeed koobkeedii gacantaan kuu gelin doonaa.
Because you did what your sister did, I will give you her cup to drink.
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 from your sister's cup—a large, deep cup. You will be laughed at and insulted. You'll have to endure much of this.
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.
It will make you drunk and full of grief because it's a cup of that brings horror and destruction, the cup your sister Samaria drank from.
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 all down, smash it to pieces on the ground, and tear at your breasts. This is what I have spoken, declares the Lord God.
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.
In summary this is what the Lord God says: Because you have forgotten about me and have ignored me, you will have to experience the consequences of your immorality 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, are you going to condemn Oholah and Oholibah? Expose the disgusting things they've done!
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 they are guilty of murder. They have committed adultery with their idols, and have even offered their children, whom they had for me, as sacrifices to 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 also did this to me: On the very same day they both made my sanctuary unclean and violated 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 very day that they killed their children for their idols, they went my sanctuary and made it unclean. Look at what they did right inside my Temple!
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,
They even kept on sending messengers for men to come from far away. When the men arrived, you would get yourselves ready for them by bathing, doing your eye makeup, and putting in your jewelry.
41 oo waxaad ku fadhiisatay sariir haybad badan oo miis horteeda lagu soo diyaarshay, kaasoo aad fooxaygii iyo saliiddaydii saartay.
You sat on an expensive couch, with my incense and my oil on a table placed in front of it.
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.
The room was full of the noise of people partying. Drunk men were brought in from the desert along with some common people and they 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 about the old worn-out woman, ‘Now they can have her as a prostitute because that's what 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.
So they had sex with her like a prostitute. They had sex with Oholah and Oholibah, those immoral 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 men who believe in what's right will judge them and impose the punishment for committing commit adultery and murder, because they are adulterers and murderers.
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: Have a mob attack them! Make them terrified and rob them.
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 kill them with their swords, slaughtering their sons and daughters and burning 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.
This is how I will put an end to immorality in the country, and all the women will be warned not to do what you have done.
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 punish you for your immorality, and you will have to experience the consequences of your idol worship. Then you will know that I am the Lord God.”
