< Yexesqeel 4 >
1 Wiilka Aadamow, xabbad leben ah soo qaad oo hortaada dhig, oo waxaad ku dul taswiirtaa magaalo, taasoo ah Yeruusaalem,
And thou, son of man, take thee a brick, and lay it before thee, and portray upon it a city, — Jerusalem:
2 oo iyada weerar, qalcadona ku hareeree, oo tuulmona ku tuul, oo xerooyinna hareereheeda ka dhis, oo wax lagu dumiyona ku wareeji.
and lay siege against it, and build forts against it, and cast a mound against it, and set camps against it, and place battering-rams against it round about.
3 Oo weliba birdaawe soo qaad, oo waxaad ka dhigtaa derbi bir ah oo adiga iyo magaalada u dhexeeya, oo wejigaagana waxaad u sii jeedisaa xaggeeda, oo iyana waa la weerari doonaa, oo adiguna waa inaad iyada weerar u dhigtaa. Oo taasu calaamad bay u noqon doontaa reer binu Israa'iil.
And take thou unto thee an iron plate, and put it [for] a wall of iron between thee and the city; and set thy face against it, and it shall be besieged, and thou shalt lay siege against it: this shall be a sign to the house of Israel.
4 Oo weliba dhinacaaga bidix u jiifso, oo waxaad kor saartaa xumaantii dadka dalka Israa'iil. Maalmaha aad ku jiifto inta tiradoodu tahay oo kale ayaad xumaantooda sidi doontaa.
And thou, lie upon thy left side, and lay the iniquity of the house of Israel upon it: the number of the days that thou liest upon it, thou shalt bear their iniquity.
5 Waayo, waxaan ku dul saaray sannadihii xumaantooda, inta maalmaha tiradoodu tahay saddex boqol iyo sagaashan maalmood, oo sidaasaad xumaanta dadka dalka Israa'iil u sidi doontaa.
And I have appointed thee the years of their iniquity, according to the number of the days, three hundred and ninety days; and thou shalt bear the iniquity of the house of Israel.
6 Oo markaad intaas dhammaysid, haddana waxaad u jiifsataa dhinacaaga midig, oo waxaad afartan maalmood sidi doontaa xumaantii dadka dalka Yahuudah, maalin kastaba sannad baan kaaga dhigay.
And when thou hast accomplished them, thou shalt lie again on thy right side, and thou shalt bear the iniquity of the house of Judah forty days: I have appointed thee each day for a year.
7 Oo waxaad wejigaaga u jeedisaa weerarka Yeruusaalem xaggiisa, iyadoo gacantaadu qaawan tahay, oo waa inaad iyada wax ka sii sheegtaa.
And thou shalt set thy face toward the siege of Jerusalem, and thine arm shall be uncovered, and thou shalt prophesy against it.
8 Oo bal ogow, anigu xadhkaan kugu xidhxidhi doonaa, oo waa inaadan hadba dhinac isu rogin ilaa aad dhammaysid maalmihii weerarkaaga.
And behold, I lay bands upon thee, and thou shalt not turn thyself from one side to the other, till thou hast ended the days of thy siege.
9 Oo weliba waxaad soo qaadataa sarreen, iyo shaciir, iyo digir, iyo misir, iyo hadhuudh, iyo heed, oo kulligood isku weel ku shub, oo kibis ka samayso, oo maalmaha aad dhinaca u jiifto intay tiradoodu tahay in le'eg, oo ah saddex boqol iyo sagaashan maalmood, waa inaad cuntaa.
And thou, take unto thee wheat, and barley, and beans, and lentils, and millet, and spelt, and put them in one vessel, and make thee bread thereof, [according to] the number of the days that thou liest upon thy side: three hundred and ninety days shalt thou eat thereof.
10 Oo cuntada aad cuni doontaana waa inay ahaataa mid la miisaamay, oo maalintii labaatan sheqel ayaa kuu go'an, oo waa inaad goor ka goor cuntaa.
And thy meat which thou shalt eat shall be by weight, twenty shekels a day: from time to time shalt thou eat it.
11 Oo biyahana waa inaad qiyaas u cabtaa, oo waxaa kuu go'an hiin lix meelood loo dhigay meeshiis, oo waa inaad goor ka goor cabtaa.
And thou shalt drink water by measure, the sixth part of a hin: from time to time shalt thou drink.
12 Oo cuntadaadana waxaad u cuntaa sida kibis shaciireed oo kale, oo waxaad ku dubataa saxaro dad iyadoo ay indhaha ku hayaan.
And thou shalt eat it [as] barley-cake, and thou shalt bake it in their sight with dung that cometh out of man.
13 Oo Rabbigu wuxuu yidhi, Sidaas oo kale ayaa reer binu Israa'iil kibistooda nijaasowday ugu dhex cuni doonaan quruumihii aan iyaga u kaxayn doonoba.
And Jehovah said, So shall the children of Israel eat their bread unclean among the nations whither I will drive them.
14 Markaasaan idhi, Sayidow, Rabbiyow, bal eeg, naftaydu weligeed ma ay nijaasoobin, waayo, tan iyo yaraantaydii iyo ilaa haddatan marnaba ma aan cunin wax bakhtiyey ama wax bahal bakhtiistay toona, oo hilib karaahiyo ahuna innaba afkayga ma gelin.
Then said I, Ah, Lord Jehovah! behold, my soul hath not been defiled, and from my youth up even until now have I not eaten of that which dieth of itself, or of that which is torn; neither came there abominable flesh into my mouth.
15 Markaasuu igu yidhi, Bal eeg, saxaro dad waxaan kuugu beddelay saalo lo', oo waa inaad cuntadaada ku diyaarsataa.
And he said unto me, See, I have given thee cow's dung for man's dung, and thou shalt prepare thy bread therewith.
16 Oo weliba wuxuu kaloo igu yidhi, Wiilka Aadamow, bal ogow, usha kibista ayaan Yeruusaalem ku dhex jebin doonaa, oo iyagu waxay kibista ku cuni doonaan miisaan iyo digtoonaan, oo biyahana waxay ku cabbi doonaan qiyaas iyo yaab,
And he said unto me, Son of man, behold, I break the staff of bread in Jerusalem; and they shall eat bread by weight, and with anxiety; and they shall drink water by measure, and with astonishment:
17 si ay baad iyo biyo u waayaan oo uu midkoodba kan kale ula welwelo, oo ay xumaantooda aawadeed u wada baabba'aan.
because bread and water shall fail them, and they shall be astonied one with another, and waste away in their iniquity.
