Yexesqeel 33
1 Haddana Eraygii Rabbiga ayaa ii yimid isagoo leh,
And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
2 Wiilka Aadamow, dadkaaga la hadal, oo waxaad ku tidhaahdaa, Markaan seef dal ku soo daayo, haddii dadka dalkaasu ay nin iyaga ka mid ah soo soocaan oo ay waardiye ka dhigtaan,
“Son of man, speak to the sons of your people, and you shall say to them: Concerning the land, when I will have led the sword over it: if the people of the land take a man, one of their least, and appoint him over themselves as a watchman,
3 markuu arko seefta dhulka soo degaysa hadduu buunka yeedhiyo, oo uu dadka u digo,
and if he sees the sword approaching over the land, and he sounds the trumpet, and he announces to the people,
4 ku alla kii maqla buunka dhawaaqiisa oo aan digtoonaan, hadday seeftu timaado oo ay isaga nafta ka qaaddo, dhiiggiisu wuxuu saarnaan doonaa madaxiisa.
then, having heard the sound of the trumpet, whoever he is, if he also does not take care of himself, and the sword arrives and takes him: his blood will be upon his own head.
5 Buunka dhawaaqiisuu maqlay, mase digtoonaan, dhiiggiisu isaga uun buu saarnaan doonaa. Hadduu digtoonaan lahaa, naftiisuu samatabbixin lahaa.
He heard the sound of the trumpet, and he did not take care of himself, so his blood will be upon him. But if he guards himself, he will save his own life.
6 Laakiinse waardiyuhu hadduu arko seeftii oo soo socota, illowse uusan buunka yeedhin, oo uusan dadka u digin, hadday seeftu timaado oo ay qof iyaga ka mid ah nafta ka qaaddo, kaasuu xumaantiisuu ku dhintaa, laakiinse dhiiggiisa waxaa la weyddiin doonaa ninkii waardiyaha ahaa gacantiisa.
And if the watchman sees the sword approaching, and he does not sound the trumpet, and so the people do not guard themselves, and the sword arrives and takes some of their lives, certainly these have been taken due to their own iniquity. But I will attribute their blood to the hand of the watchman.
7 Haddaba Wiilka Aadamow, waardiye baan reer binu Israa'iil kaaga dhigay, oo sidaas daraaddeed erayga afkayga ka maqal, oo iyaga xaggayga uga dig.
And as for you, son of man, I have made you a watchman to the house of Israel. Therefore, having heard the word from my mouth, you shall announce it to them from me.
8 Markaan mid sharrow ah ku idhaahdo, Sharrowgow, hubaal waad dhiman doontaa, haddaadan sharrowga jidkiisa sharka ah kala hadlin oo aadan uga digin, ninkaas sharrowga ahu xumaantiisuu ku dhiman doonaa, laakiinse dhiiggiisa gacantaadaan weyddiin doonaa.
When I say to the impious, ‘O impious man, you will die a death,’ if you have not spoken so that the impious man will keep himself from his way, then that impious man will die in his iniquity. But I will attribute his blood to your hand.
9 Habase ahaatee haddaad sharrowga jidkiisa uga digtid inuu ka soo leexdo aawadeed, laakiinse uusan jidkiisa ka soo noqon, markaas isagu xumaantiisuu ku dhiman doonaa, laakiinse adigu naftaadaad samatabbixisay.
But if you have announced to the impious man, so that he may be converted from his ways, and he has not converted from his way, then he will die in his iniquity. Yet you will have freed your own soul.
10 Sidaas daraaddeed Wiilka Aadamow, reer binu Israa'iil la hadal, oo waxaad ku tidhaahdaa, Idinku waxaad ku hadashaan oo istidhaahdaan, Xadgudubyadayadii iyo dembiyadayadiiba way na dul saaran yihiin, oo iyaga ayaannu ku dhex macaluulsan nahay, haddaba bal sidee baannu u noolaan karaynaa?
You, therefore, O son of man, say to the house of Israel: You have spoken in this way, saying: ‘Our iniquities and our sins are upon us, and we waste away in them. So then, how would we be able to live?’
11 Waxaad iyaga ku tidhaahdaa, Sayidka Rabbiga ahu wuxuu leeyahay, Noloshaydaan ku dhaartaye inaanan innaba farxad ka helayn dhimashada sharrowga, laakiinse waxaan jeclahay in sharrowgu uu jidkiisa ka soo noqdo oo uu noolaado. Soo noqda, jidkiinna ka soo noqda, waayo, reer binu Israa'iilow, bal maxaad u dhimanaysaan?
Say to them: As I live, says the Lord God, I do not desire the death of the impious, but that the impious should convert from his way and live. Be converted, be converted from your evil ways! For why should you die, O house of Israel?
12 Wiilka Aadamow, waxaad dadkaaga ku tidhaahdaa, Ka xaqa ah maalintii uu xadgudub sameeyo xaqnimadiisu ma ay samatabbixin doonto, oo sharrowguna maalintii uu sharnimadiisa ka soo noqdo sharnimadiisa kuma uu dhex dhici doono. Oo ka xaqa ahu maalintii uu dembaabo ma uu kari doono inuu xaqnimadiisa ku noolaado.
And as for you then, son of man, say to the sons of your people: The justice of the just man will not deliver him, on whatever day he will have sinned. And the impiety of the impious man will not harm him, on whatever day he will have been converted from his impiety. And the just man will not be able to live by his justice, on whatever day he will have sinned.
13 Markaan ka xaqa ah ku idhaahdo, Hubaal waad noolaan doontaa, hadduu xaqnimada isku halleeyo oo uu xumaan sameeyo, markaas falimihiisii xaqa ahaa lama soo xusuusan doono, laakiinse wuxuu ku dhiman doonaa xumaantiisii uu sameeyey.
Even now, if I say to the just man that he shall certainly live, and so, with confidence in his justice, he commits iniquity, all his justices will be delivered into oblivion, and by his iniquity, which he has done, by this he shall die.
14 Haddana markaan sharrowga ku idhaahdo, Hubaal waad dhiman doontaa, hadduu dembigiisa ka soo noqdo, oo uu waxa xaqa ah oo qumman sameeyo,
And if I say to the impious man, ‘You shall certainly die,’ and yet he repents from his sin, and he does judgment and justice,
15 iyo hadduu sharrowgu rahaamaddii celiyo, oo uu wixii uu dhacay celiyo, oo uu qaynuunnada nolosha ku socdo, isagoo aan innaba xumaan samaynayn, markaas hubaal wuu noolaan doonaa, mana dhiman doono.
and if that impious man returns the collateral, and repays what he has taken by force, and if he walks in the commandments of life, and does not do anything unjust, then he shall certainly live, and he shall not die.
16 Oo dembiyadiisii uu sameeyey midkoodna looma xusuusan doono. Wuxuu sameeyey wax xaq ah oo qumman, oo hubaal wuu noolaan doonaa.
None of his sins, which he has committed, will be imputed to him. He has done judgment and justice, so he shall certainly live.
17 Laakiinse dadkaagu waxay yidhaahdaan, Sayidka jidkiisu ma qummana, illowse waa iyaga qudhooda waxa aan jidkoodu qummanayn.
And the sons of your people have said, ‘The way of the Lord is not a fair balance,’ even while their own way is unjust.
18 Kan xaqa ahu hadduu xaqnimadiisa ka leexdo oo uu xumaan sameeyo, xumaantiisuu ku dhiman doonaa.
For when the just man will have withdrawn from his justice, and committed iniquities, he shall die by these.
19 Laakiinse sharrowgu hadduu sharnimadiisa ka soo noqdo oo uu waxa xaqa ah ee qumman sameeyo, qummanaantiisuu ku noolaan doonaa.
And when the impious man will have withdrawn from his impiety, and have done judgment and justice, he shall live by these.
20 Laakiinse idinku waxaad tidhaahdaan, Sayidka jidkiisu ma qummana. Reer binu Israa'iilow, midkiin kastaba waxaan u xukumi doonaa siday jidadkiisu yihiin.
And yet you say, ‘The way of the Lord is not right.’ But I shall judge each one of you according to his own ways, O house of Israel.”
21 Oo sannaddii laba iyo tobnaad ee maxaabiisnimadayadii, bisheedii tobnaad, maalinteedii shanaad ayaa mid Yeruusaalem ka soo baxsaday ii yimid, oo wuxuu igu yidhi, Magaaladii waa la qabsaday.
And it happened that, in the twelfth year of our transmigration, in the tenth month, on the fifth of the month, one who had fled from Jerusalem arrived saying, “The city has been laid waste.”
22 Oo kan soo cararay intuusan ii iman markay fiidkii ahayd gacantii Rabbiga ayaa i dul saarnayd, oo Rabbigu afkayguu furay, oo ilaa uu aroortii dambe ii yimid ayaa afkaygii furnaa, oo aniguna mar dambe carrablaawe ma aan ahayn.
But the hand of the Lord had been upon me in the evening, before the one who had fled arrived. And he opened my mouth, until he came to me in the morning. And since my mouth had been opened, I was no longer silent.
23 Oo haddana Eraygii Rabbiga ayaa ii yimid isagoo leh,
And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
24 Wiilka Aadamow, meelaha cidlada ah ee dalka reer binu Israa'iil kuwa degganu waxay yidhaahdaan, Ibraahim nin qudhuhuu ahaa, oo isagu dalkan buu dhaxlay, laakiinse innagu waynu badan nahay, oo dalkana innagaa dhaxal ahaan inaloo siiyey.
“Son of man, as for those who live in these ruinous ways on the soil of Israel, when speaking, they say: ‘Abraham was one man, and he possessed the land as an inheritance. But we are many; the land has been given to us as a possession.’
25 Haddaba waxaad iyaga ku tidhaahdaa, Sayidka Rabbiga ahu wuxuu leeyahay, Hilib dhiig leh baad cuntaan, oo sanamyadiinna ayaad indhaha kor ugu taagtaan, oo dhiig baad daadisaan, haddaba ma idinkaa dalka dhaxlaya?
Therefore, you shall say to them: Thus says the Lord God: You who eat even the blood, and who lift up your eyes to your uncleannesses, and who shed blood: will you possess the land as an inheritance?
26 Seeftiinnaad isku hallaysaan, oo wax karaahiyo ah ayaad samaysaan, oo midkiin kastaaba naagta deriskiisuu nijaaseeyaa, haddaba ma idinkaa dalka dhaxlaya?
You stood by your swords, you committed abominations, and each one has defiled his neighbor’s wife. And will you possess the land as an inheritance?
27 Waxaad iyaga ku tidhaahdaa, Sayidka Rabbiga ahu wuxuu leeyahay, Noloshaydaan ku dhaartaye, hubaal kuwa meelaha cidlada ah ku dhex jiraa seef bay ku le'an doonaan, oo kii berrin bannaan joogana dugaaggaan inay cunaan u siin doonaa, oo kuwa qalcadaha iyo boholaha ku jiraana belaayo bay u dhiman doonaan.
You shall say these things to them: So says the Lord God: As I live, those who live in ruinous ways will fall by the sword. And whoever is in the field will be delivered over to wild beasts to be devoured. But those who are in fortresses and in caves will die of the pestilence.
28 Oo dalka cidla iyo yaab baan ka dhigi doonaa, oo kibirka xooggiisuna wuu dhammaan doonaa, oo buuraha reer binu Israa'iilna cidla bay noqon doonaan, si aan ciduna u dhex marin.
And I will make the land into a wilderness and a desert. And its arrogant strength will fail. And the mountains of Israel will be desolate; for there will be no one who crosses through them.
29 Oo markaan dalka cidla iyo yaab uga dhigo waxyaalahoodii karaahiyada ahaa ee ay sameeyeen aawadood waxay ogaan doonaan inaan anigu Rabbiga ahay.
And they shall know that I am the Lord, when I will have made their land desolate and deserted, because of all their abominations, which they have worked.
30 Oo weliba Wiilka Aadamow, dadkaagu derbiyada dhinacooda iyo guryaha irdahooda ayay kugu hadal hayaan, oo midkoodba wuxuu kan kale ku yidhaahdaa, oo midba walaalkiis ku yidhaahdaa, Waan ku baryayaaye bal kaalay oo maqal waxa uu yahay erayga Rabbiga ka imanayaa!
And as for you, O son of man: the sons of your people speak about you beside the walls and in the doorways of houses. And they speak to one another, each man to his neighbor, saying: ‘Come, and let us hear what may be the word going forth from the Lord.’
31 Waxay kuugu yimaadaan sida dadku u yimaado, oo waxay hortaada u fadhiistaan sida dadkayga oo kale, oo erayadaadana way maqlaan, laakiinse innaba ma ay yeelaan, waayo, afkooda ayay jacayl badan ku muujiyaan, laakiinse qalbigoodu wuxuu daba galaa faa'iidadooda.
And they come to you, as if the people were entering, and my people sit before you. And they listen to your words, but they do not do them. For they turn them into a song for their mouth, but their heart pursues their own avarice.
32 Bal eeg, waxaad iyaga u tahay sida balwo caashaq ah oo uu mid cod wanaagsan oo alaab muusikeed si wacan ugu cayaari yaqaan ku balweeyo, waayo, erayadaada way maqlaan, laakiinse innaba ma ay yeelaan.
And you are to them like a verse set to music, which is sung with a sweet and pleasing voice. And they hear your words, but they do not do them.
33 Oo markay waxyaalahaasu noqdaan, (bal eeg, way iman doonaane, ) waxay ogaan doonaan in nebi uu iyaga dhex joogay.
And when what has been predicted occurs, for behold it is approaching, then they shall know that a prophet was among them.”
