< Yexesqeel 4 >
1 Wiilka Aadamow, xabbad leben ah soo qaad oo hortaada dhig, oo waxaad ku dul taswiirtaa magaalo, taasoo ah Yeruusaalem,
But thou, O son of man, take thyself a tile, and lay it before thee, and engrave upon it a city, [namely, ] Jerusalem:
2 oo iyada weerar, qalcadona ku hareeree, oo tuulmona ku tuul, oo xerooyinna hareereheeda ka dhis, oo wax lagu dumiyona ku wareeji.
And place around it a siege, and build works of attack against it, and cast up a mound against it; and arrange around it encampments, and place against it battering rams 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.
Moreover take thou unto thyself an iron pan, and set it up as a wall of iron between thee and the city: and direct thy face against it, that it may be placed in a state of siege, and lay siege against it. This shall be a sign for 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 as for thyself, lie upon thy left side, and lay the iniquity of the house of Israel upon it: [after] the number of the days that thou shalt lie upon it shalt thou 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.
But as for myself, I lay upon thee the years of their iniquity, after the number of the days, three hundred and ninety days: so shalt thou 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 made an end of them, thou shalt lie on thy right side, the second time, and thou shalt bear the iniquity of the house of Judah forty days: a day each for a year, a day for a year do I lay it on thee.
7 Oo waxaad wejigaaga u jeedisaa weerarka Yeruusaalem xaggiisa, iyadoo gacantaadu qaawan tahay, oo waa inaad iyada wax ka sii sheegtaa.
And toward the siege of Jerusalem shalt thou direct thy face with thy arm 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 will lay ropes upon thee, that thou mayest not turn thyself from one side to the other, till thou hast made an end of 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.
But thou take unto thee wheat, and barley, and beans, and lentiles, and millet, and spelt, and put them in one vessel, and make thyself bread thereof, [after] the number of the days that thou shalt lie upon thy side, three hundred and ninety days, shalt thou eat it.
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 food which thou shalt eat shall be by weight, twenty shekels for every day: from one time to the other 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 water shalt thou drink by measure, the sixth part of a hin: from one time to the other time shalt thou drink [it].
12 Oo cuntadaadana waxaad u cuntaa sida kibis shaciireed oo kale, oo waxaad ku dubataa saxaro dad iyadoo ay indhaha ku hayaan.
And in form of a barley-cake shalt thou eat it, and this shalt thou bake with balls of human excrement before their eyes.
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 the Lord said, Even thus 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 Eternal! behold, my soul hath not been defiled; and that which dieth of itself, or is torn in pieces, have I never eaten from my youth up even until now; and never is flesh of abomination come into my mouth.
15 Markaasuu igu yidhi, Bal eeg, saxaro dad waxaan kuugu beddelay saalo lo', oo waa inaad cuntadaada ku diyaarsataa.
Then said he unto me, Lo, I have given thee cow's dung instead of human excrement; and thou shalt prepare thy bread thereupon.
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 will break the staff of bread in Jerusalem; and they shall eat bread by weight, and with anxious care; and they shall drink water by measure, and in confusion;
17 si ay baad iyo biyo u waayaan oo uu midkoodba kan kale ula welwelo, oo ay xumaantooda aawadeed u wada baabba'aan.
In order that they may want bread and water, and be confounded one with the other, and pine away for their iniquity.
