Yexesqeel 37
1 Gacantii Rabbiga ayaa i dul saarnayd, oo Ruuxiisuu kor iigu qaaday, oo igu dhex riday dooxo ay lafo ka buuxaan,
One day Yahweh gave me another vision. In the vision I felt the power [MTY] of God on me, and by his Spirit he took me to the middle of a valley. It was full of bones [of people who had been killed].
2 oo hareerahooda ayuu igu wareejiyey, oo bal eega, waxaa dooxada bannaankeeda yiil lafo aad iyo aad u tiro badan, oo bal eega, aad iyo aad bay u qallalnaayeen.
He led me to walk back and forth among those bones. I saw that there were very many bones there, bones that were very dry.
3 Oo wuxuu igu yidhi, Wiilka Aadamow, lafahanu miyey noolaan karaan? Oo waxaan ugu jawaabay: Sayidow, Rabbiyow, adaa og.
He asked me, “You human, [do you think that] these bones can become living [people again]?” I replied, “Yahweh my Lord, only you know [if that can happen].”
4 Oo haddana wuxuu igu yidhi, Lafahan la hadal, oo waxaad ku tidhaahdaa, Lafahan engeganow, bal erayga Rabbiga maqla.
Then he said to me, “Prophesy to these bones. Say to them, ‘You dry bones, listen to what Yahweh says.
5 Sayidka Rabbiga ahu wuxuu lafahan ku leeyahay, Bal eega, neef baan idin gelin doonaa, oo idinku waad noolaan doontaan.
This is what Yahweh the Lord says to you bones: I will put my breath into each of you, and you will become alive again.
6 Oo seedaan idin kor saari doonaa, oo hilib baan idiin yeeli doonaa, oo harag baan idinku dabooli doonaa, oo neef baan idin gelin doonaa, oo waad noolaan doontaan, oo waxaad ogaan doontaan inaan anigu Rabbiga ahay.
I will fasten tendons to your bones, and cause your bones to be covered with flesh. I will cover the flesh with skin. Then I will breathe into you, and you will become alive. When that happens, you will know that I, Yahweh, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].’”
7 Sidaas darteed ayaan wax u sii sheegay sidii laygu amray, oo intaan wax sii sheegayay ayaa sanqadh weyni yeedhay, oo dhulgariir baa dhacay, oo lafihiina way isku soo wada urureen, oo lafuba lafteedii bay u tagtay.
So I spoke to the bones what Yahweh commanded me to speak. As I was speaking, there was a noise, a rattling sound, and the bones came together, bones joining to each other.
8 Oo intaan fiirinayay ayaa waxaa soo kor fuulay seedo, oo hilib baana ka dul baxay oo harag baa ku kor daboolmay, laakiinse neefu kuma jirin.
While I was looking, I saw tendons fastening to them and flesh covering them, and then skin covered the flesh, but they did not breathe.
9 Markaasuu igu yidhi, Wiilka Aadamow, dabaysha la hadal, la hadal, oo waxaad dabaysha ku tidhaahdaa, Sayidka Rabbiga ahu wuxuu leeyahay, Dabayshay, afarta qalbadood ka kaalay oo kuwan la laayay si ay u soo noolaadaan aawadeed ku neefso.
Then he said to me, “You human, prophesy to the wind. Say to the wind, ‘Wind [APO], Yahweh says to you, blow from all four directions. Breathe into these people who have been killed, in order that they can become alive again!’”
10 Sidaas daraaddeed waxaan ku hadlay siduu igu amray, oo neef baa iyagii soo gashay, oo way soo wada noolaadeen, oo cagahay ku istaageen, oo waxay ahaayeen ciidan aad iyo aad u faro badan.
So I said what he commanded me to say, and then breath entered them. They became alive and stood up, like a huge army.
11 Markaasuu igu yidhi, Wiilka Aadamow, lafahanu waa reer binu Israa'iil oo dhan. Bal eeg, iyagu waxay yidhaahdaan, Lafahayagii way engegeen, oo rajadayadiina way go'day, oo waannu wada baabba'nay.
Then he said to me, “You human, these bones represent all the Israeli people [MTY]. The people say, ‘[It is as though] our bones are dried up; there are no more good things that we can (hope for/confidently expect to happen to us); our nation is destroyed/finished.’
12 Sidaas daraaddeed hadal oo waxaad ku tidhaahdaa, Sayidka Rabbiga ahu wuxuu leeyahay, Dadkaygow, bal eega, qabuurihiinnaan wada furi doonaa, oo qabuurihiinnaan idinka soo bixin doonaa, waxaanan idin keeni doonaa dalkii reer binu Israa'iil.
So prophesy and say to them, ‘This is what Yahweh the Lord says: My people, [it will be as though] I will open your graves and cause your corpses to become alive again. I will bring you back to Israel.
13 Dadkaygow, markaan qabuurihiinna wada furo, oo aan qabuurihiinna idinka soo bixiyo, waxaad ogaan doontaan inaan anigu Rabbiga ahay.
Then, what that happens, you my people will know that I, Yahweh the Lord, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].
14 Ruuxaygaan idin gelin doonaa, waanad soo noolaan doontaan, oo waxaan idin keeni doonaa dalkiinnii. Oo markaasaad ogaan doontaan in aniga Rabbiga ahu aan saas ku hadlay, oo aan weliba oofiyey, ayaa Rabbigu leeyahay.
I will put my Spirit in you, and [it will be as though] you will become alive again, and I will enable you to live in your own land again. Then you will know that it is I, Yahweh, who said [that it would happen] and who has caused it to happen. That is what I, Yahweh, declare.’”
15 Oo haddana Eraygii Rabbiga ayaa ii yimid isagoo leh,
Yahweh gave me [another] message. He said,
16 Wiilka Aadamow, ul soo qaad, oo waxaad ku qortaa: Tanu waxay u tahay reer Yahuudah iyo reer binu Israa'iil oo saaxiibbadiis ah. Oo haddana ul kale soo qaad, oo waxaad ku qortaa: Tanu waxay u tahay reer Yuusuf taasoo ah ushii Efrayim, iyo reer binu Israa'iil oo dhan oo saaxiibbadiis ah.
“You human, take a piece of wood and write on it, ‘This represents Judah and all the tribes of Judah.’ Then take another piece of wood and write on it, ‘This represents Israel and all the tribes of Israel.’
17 Oo labadoodaba isku dar oo waxaad isaga dhigtaa ul qudha inay iyagu gacantaada isku mid qudha ku noqdaan.
Then join them together to become [as though they were] one piece of wood in your hand.
18 Oo markay dadkaagu kula hadlaan oo ay kugu yidhaahdaan, War, maad noo sheegtid waxa aad xaalkan ula jeeddid?
When your fellow Israelis ask you, ‘What does (this action/what you just did) mean?’,
19 waxaad ku tidhaahdaa, Sayidka Rabbiga ahu wuxuu leeyahay, Bal eega, waxaan soo qaadan doonaa usha reer Yuusuf oo gacanta reer Efrayim ku jirta, iyo qabiilooyinka reer binu Israa'iil oo isaga saaxiibbadiis ah, oo waxaan ku dari doonaa usha reer Yahuudah, oo kulligood waxaan isaga wada dhigi doonaa ul qudha oo gacantayday ku midoobi doonaan.
tell them, ‘This is what Yahweh the Lord says: One of the pieces of wood in my hand represents Israel and all the tribes of Israel. I am joining it to the piece of wood that represents Judah, to form one piece of wood in his hand.’
20 Oo ulaha aad waxaas ku qortana waa inay gacantaada ku jiraan iyagoo indhaha ku haya.
Then, [you human], hold up the pieces of wood that you have written on, in order that the people can see them.
21 Oo waxaad iyaga ku tidhaahdaa, Sayidka Rabbiga ahu wuxuu leeyahay, Bal ogaada, reer binu Israa'iil waan ka soo dhex bixin doonaa quruumaha ay tageen, oo intaan dhinac kasta ka soo ururiyo ayaan dalkoodii keeni doonaa.
Say to the people, ‘This is what Yahweh the Lord says: I will take you Israeli people out of the countries to which you have been forced to go. I will gather you from all those nations and bring you back to your own land.
22 Oo iyaga quruun qudha ayaan uga dhigi doonaa dalka buuraha reer binu Israa'iil, oo boqor qudha ayaa kulligood boqor u wada ahaan doona, oo mar dambe laba quruumood ma ay kala ahaan doonaan, oo kol dambe innaba laba boqortooyo uma ay kala qaybsanaan doonaan.
And I will cause you to again be one nation in that land, on the mountains in Israel. And there will be one king to rule over all of you. Never again will you be two nations or divided into two kingdoms.
23 Oo mar dambena iskuma ay nijaasayn doonaan sanamyadooda, ama waxyaalahooda karaahiyada ah, ama xadgudubyadooda midkoodna, laakiinse waxaan ka badbaadin doonaa meelaha ay ku hoydaan oo ay ku dhex dembaabeen oo dhan, oo waan nadiifin doonaa, oo sidaasay dadkayga u ahaan doonaan, oo aniguna Ilaahooda baan ahaan doonaa.
No longer will you (defile yourselves/make yourselves unacceptable to me) by [worshiping] idols and disgusting statues [of your gods], because I will enable you to quit your sinful behavior and to stop rejecting me. You will be my people, and I will be your God.
24 Oo addoonkaygii Daa'uud ayaa iyaga boqor u ahaan doona, oo kulligoodna waxay lahaan doonaan adhijir qudha; oo weliba xukummadayday ku dhex socon doonaan, oo qaynuunnadaydana way dhawri doonaan oo way wada samayn doonaan.
[Someone who will be like] [MET] [King] David who served [me well] will be the king [of your descendants], and [it will be as though] [MET] he will be their shepherd. They will carefully obey all my laws [DOU].
25 Oo waxay dhex degganaan doonaan dalkii aan addoonkaygii Yacquub siiyey, oo ay awowayaashiin degganaan jireen, oo weligoodba halkaasay degganaan doonaan iyaga iyo carruurtooda, iyo carruurtooda carruurtooduba, oo addoonkaygii Daa'uudna weligiis amiirkoodii buu ahaan doonaa.
They will live in the land that I gave to Jacob, who also served [me well]; they will live in the land where your ancestors lived. They and their children and their grandchildren will live there forever, and [the one who will be like] [MET] [King] David will be their king forever.
26 Oo weliba axdi nabdeed baan la dhigan doonaa, oo kaasu wuxuu ahaan doonaa axdi daa'imis ah oo weligoodba iyaga lala dhigtay. Oo iyagaan barakayn doonaa, waanan sii badin doonaa, oo meeshayda quduuska ahna weligeedba waan dhex dhigi doonaa.
I will make a peace agreement with them; it will be an agreement that will endure forever. I will again give them that land and cause their population to increase. And I will put my temple among them forever.
27 Oo taambuuggayguna iyaguu la jiri doonaa, oo Ilaahoodaan ahaan doonaa, oo iyaguna dadkaygay ahaan doonaan.
The place where I will live will be among them; I will be their God and they will be my people.
28 Oo quruumuhuna waxay ogaan doonaan in aniga Rabbiga ahu aan reer binu Israa'iil quduus ka dhigo, markii meeshayda quduuska ahu ay weligeedba dhexdooda ku sii taallo.
Then, when my temple is forever there among them, the people of other nations will know that I, Yahweh, have caused the Israeli people to be set apart [to belong to me].’”
