Ezekieli 13
1 Neno la Bwana likanijia kusema:
And the word of the Lord was maad to me,
2 “Mwanadamu, tabiri dhidi ya manabii wa Israeli wanaotabiri sasa. Waambie hao ambao hutabiri kutokana na mawazo yao wenyewe: ‘Sikia neno la Bwana!
and he seide, Sone of man, profesie thou to the profetis of Israel that profesien; and thou schalt seie to hem that profesien of her herte,
3 Hili ndilo Bwana Mwenyezi asemalo: Ole wao manabii wapumbavu wafuatao roho yao wenyewe na wala hawajaona chochote!
Here ye the word of the Lord. The Lord God seith these thingis, Wo to the vnwise profetis, that suen her spirit, and seen no thing;
4 Manabii wako, ee Israeli, ni kama mbweha katikati ya magofu.
Israel, thi profetis weren as foxis in desert.
5 Hamjakwea kwenda kuziba mahali palipobomoka katika ukuta ili kuukarabati kwa ajili ya nyumba ya Israeli, ili kwamba isimame imara kwenye vita katika siku ya Bwana.
Ye stieden not euene ayens, nether ayensettiden a wal for the hous of Israel, that ye shulden stonde in batel in the dai of the Lord.
6 Maono yao ni ya uongo na ubashiri wao ni wa udanganyifu. Wao husema, “Bwana amesema,” wakati Bwana hakuwatuma, bado wakitarajia maneno yao kutimizwa.
Thei seen veyn thingis, and deuynen a leesyng, and seien, The Lord seith, whanne the Lord sente not hem; and thei contynueden to conferme the word.
7 Je, hamjaona maono ya uongo na kusema ubashiri wa udanganyifu hapo msemapo, “Bwana asema,” lakini Mimi sijasema?
Whether ye seen not a veyn visioun, and spaken fals diuynyng, and seiden, The Lord seith, whanne Y spak not?
8 “‘Kwa hiyo hili ndilo Bwana Mwenyezi asemalo: Kwa sababu ya uongo wa maneno yenu na kwa madanganyo ya maono yenu, Mimi ni kinyume na ninyi, asema Bwana Mwenyezi.
Therfor the Lord God seith these thingis, For ye spaken veyn thingis, and sien a leesyng, therfor lo! Y to you, seith the Lord God.
9 Mkono wangu utakuwa dhidi ya manabii ambao huona maono ya uongo na kusema ubashiri wa udanganyifu. Hawatakuwa katika baraza la watu wangu au kuandikwa katika kumbukumbu ya nyumba ya Israeli wala hawataingia katika nchi ya Israeli. Ndipo mtajua kuwa Mimi ndimi Bwana Mwenyezi.
And myn hond schal be on the profetis that seen veyn thingis, and dyuynen a leesyng; thei schulen not be in the councel of my puple, and thei schulen not be writun in the scripture of the hous of Israel, nether thei schulen entre in to the lond of Israel; and ye schulen wite, that Y am the Lord God.
10 “‘Kwa sababu ni kweli wanapotosha watu wangu, wakisema, “Amani,” wakati ambapo hakuna amani, pia kwa sababu, wakati ukuta dhaifu unapojengwa, wanaufunika kwa kupaka chokaa,
For thei disseyueden my puple, and seiden, Pees, pees, and no pees is; and it bildide a wal, but thei pargitiden it with fen with out chaffis.
11 kwa hiyo waambie hao wanaoupaka chokaa isiyokorogwa vyema kwamba ukuta huo utaanguka. Mvua kubwa ya mafuriko itanyesha, nami nitaleta mvua ya mawe inyeshe kwa nguvu, nao upepo wa dhoruba utavuma juu yake.
Seie thou to hem that pargiten with out temperure, that it schal falle doun; for a strong reyn schal be flowynge, and I shal yyue ful grete stoones fallinge fro aboue, and Y schal yyue a wynd of tempest that distrieth.
12 Wakati ukuta utakapoanguka, je, watu hawatawauliza, “Iko wapi chokaa mliyopaka ukuta?”
For lo! the wal felle doun. Whether it schal not be seid to you, Where is the pargetyng, which ye pargetiden?
13 “‘Kwa hiyo hili ndilo Bwana Mwenyezi asemalo: Katika ghadhabu yangu nitauachia upepo wa dhoruba, pia katika hasira yangu mvua ya mawe na mvua ya mafuriko itanyesha ikiwa na ghadhabu ya kuangamiza.
Therfor the Lord God seith these thingis, And Y schal make the spirit of tempestis to breke out in myn indignacioun, and strong reyn flowynge in my strong veniaunce schal be, and greet stoonys in wraththe in to wastyng.
14 Nitaubomoa ukuta mlioupaka chokaa na kuuangusha chini ili msingi wake uachwe wazi. Utakapoanguka, mtaangamizwa ndani yake, nanyi mtajua kuwa Mimi ndimi Bwana.
And Y schal distrie the wal, which ye pargetiden with out temperure, and Y schal make it euene with the erthe; and the foundement therof schal be schewid, and it schal falle doun, and it schal be wastid in the myddis therof; and ye schulen wite, that Y am the Lord.
15 Hivyo ndivyo nitakavyoitimiza ghadhabu yangu dhidi ya huo ukuta na dhidi yao walioupaka chokaa. Nitawaambia ninyi, “Ukuta umebomoka na vivyo hivyo wale walioupaka chokaa,
And Y schal fille myn indignacioun in the wal, and in hem that pargeten it with out temperure; and Y schal seie to you, The wal is not, and thei ben not,
16 wale manabii wa Israeli waliotabiri juu ya Yerusalemu na kuona maono ya amani kwa ajili yake wakati kulipokuwa hakuna amani, asema Bwana Mwenyezi.”’
that pargeten it, the profetis of Israel, that profesien to Jerusalem, and seen to it the visioun of pees, and pees is not, seith the Lord God.
17 “Sasa, mwanadamu, kaza uso wako dhidi ya binti za watu wako wanaotabiri mambo kutoka mawazo yao wenyewe. Tabiri dhidi yao
And thou, sone of man, sette thi face ayens the douytris of thi puple, that profesien of her herte; and profesie thou on hem,
18 na useme, ‘Hili ndilo Bwana Mwenyezi asemalo: Ole wao wanawake washonao hirizi za uchawi juu ya viwiko vyao vyote na kutengeneza shela za urefu wa aina mbalimbali kwa ajili ya kufunika vichwa vyao kwa makusudi ya kuwanasa watu. Je, mtatega uhai wa watu wangu lakini ninyi mponye wa kwenu?
and seie thou, The Lord God seith these thingis, Wo to hem that sowen togidere cuschens vndur ech cubit of hond, and maken pilewis vndur the heed of ech age, to take soulis; and whanne thei disseyueden the soulis of my puple, thei quykenyden the soulis of hem.
19 Ninyi mmeninajisi miongoni mwa watu wangu kwa ajili ya konzi chache za shayiri na chembe za mkate. Kwa kuwaambia uongo watu wangu, wale ambao husikiliza uongo, mmewaua wale watu ambao wasingekufa na kuwaacha hai wale ambao wasingeishi.
And thei defouliden me to my puple, for an handful of barli, and for a gobet of breed, that thei schulden sle soulis that dien not, and quykene soulis that lyuen not; and thei lieden to my puple, bileuynge to leesyngis.
20 “‘Kwa hiyo hili ndilo Bwana Mwenyezi asemalo: Mimi niko kinyume na hizo hirizi zenu za uchawi ambazo kwa hizo mnawatega watu kama ndege, nami nitazirarua kutoka mikononi mwenu, nitawaweka huru watu wale mliowatega kama ndege.
For this thing the Lord God seith these thingis, Lo! Y to youre cuschens, bi whiche ye disseyuen soulis fliynge; and Y schal al to-breke tho fro youre armes, and Y schal delyuere soulis which ye disseyuen, soulis to fle.
21 Nitazirarua shela zenu na kuwaokoa watu wangu kutoka mikononi mwenu, nao hawatakuwa tena mawindo ya nguvu zenu. Ndipo mtakapojua kuwa Mimi ndimi Bwana.
And Y schal al to-breke youre pilewis, and Y schal delyuere my puple fro youre hond; and thei schulen no more be in youre hondis, to be robbid; and ye schulen wite, that Y am the Lord.
22 Kwa sababu mliwavunja moyo wenye haki kwa uongo wenu, wakati mimi sikuwaletea huzuni na kwa kuwa mliwatia moyo waovu ili wasiziache njia zao mbaya na hivyo kuokoa maisha yao,
For that that ye maden falsli the herte of a iust man to morene, whom Y made not sori; and ye coumfortiden the hondis of a wickid man, that he schulde not turne ayen fro his yuel weie, and lyue.
23 kwa hiyo hamtaona tena maono ya uongo wala kufanya ubashiri. Nitawaokoa watu wangu kutoka mikononi mwenu. Nanyi ndipo mtakapojua kuwa Mimi ndimi Bwana.’”
Therfor ye schulen not se veyn thingis, and ye schulen no more dyuyne false dyuynyngis; and Y schal delyuere my puple fro youre hond, and ye schulen wite, that Y am the Lord.
