Ezekieli 20
1 Katika mwaka wa saba, mwezi wa tano siku ya kumi, baadhi ya wazee wa Israeli wakaja ili kutaka ushauri kwa Bwana, wakaketi mbele yangu.
and to be in/on/with year [the] seventh in/on/with fifth in/on/with ten to/for month to come (in): come human from old: elder Israel to/for to seek [obj] LORD and to dwell to/for face: before my
2 Ndipo neno la Bwana likanijia kusema:
and to be word LORD to(wards) me to/for to say
3 “Mwanadamu, sema na wazee wa Israeli uwaambie, ‘Hili ndilo Bwana Mwenyezi asemalo: Kwa nini mmekuja? Je, ni kutaka ushauri kwangu? Hakika kama niishivyo, sitawaruhusu mtake ushauri toka kwangu, asema Bwana Mwenyezi.’
son: child man to speak: speak with old: elder Israel and to say to(wards) them thus to say Lord YHWH/God to/for to seek [obj] me you(m. p.) to come (in): come alive I if: surely no to seek to/for you utterance Lord YHWH/God
4 “Je, utawahukumu? Je, mwanadamu, utawahukumu? Basi uwakabili kwa ajili ya machukizo ya baba zao
to judge [obj] them to judge son: child man [obj] abomination father their to know them
5 na uwaambie: ‘Hili ndilo Bwana Mwenyezi asemalo: Siku ile nilipochagua Israeli, niliwaapia wazao wa nyumba ya Yakobo kwa mkono ulioinuliwa nami nikajidhihirisha kwao huko Misri. Kwa mkono ulioinuliwa niliwaambia, “Mimi ndimi Bwana, Mungu wenu.”
and to say to(wards) them thus to say Lord YHWH/God in/on/with day to choose I in/on/with Israel and to lift: vow hand: vow my to/for seed: children house: household Jacob and to know to/for them in/on/with land: country/planet Egypt and to lift: vow hand: vow my to/for them to/for to say I LORD God your
6 Siku ile niliwaapia wao kwamba nitawatoa katika nchi ya Misri na kuwaleta katika nchi niliyowachagulia, nchi itiririkayo maziwa na asali, nchi nzuri kupita zote.
in/on/with day [the] he/she/it to lift: vow hand: vow my to/for them to/for to come out: send them from land: country/planet Egypt to(wards) land: country/planet which to spy to/for them to flow: flowing milk and honey beauty he/she/it to/for all [the] land: country/planet
7 Nami nikawaambia, “Kila mmoja wenu aondolee mbali sanamu za chukizo ambazo mmekazia macho, nanyi msijitie unajisi kwa sanamu za Misri. Mimi ndimi Bwana, Mungu wenu.”
and to say to(wards) them man: anyone abomination eye his to throw and in/on/with idol Egypt not to defile I LORD God your
8 “‘Lakini waliniasi na hawakunisikiliza, hawakuondolea mbali sanamu za machukizo ambazo walikuwa wamezikazia macho, wala kuondolea mbali sanamu za Misri. Ndipo nikasema, nitawamwagia ghadhabu yangu na kutimiza hasira yangu dhidi yao huko Misri.
and to rebel in/on/with me and not be willing to/for to hear: hear to(wards) me man: anyone [obj] abomination eye their not to throw and [obj] idol Egypt not to leave: forsake and to say to/for to pour: pour rage my upon them to/for to end: expend face: anger my in/on/with them in/on/with midst land: country/planet Egypt
9 Lakini kwa ajili ya Jina langu nilifanya kile ambacho kingelifanya lisitiwe unajisi machoni mwa mataifa waliyoishi miongoni mwao na ambao machoni pao nilikuwa nimejifunua kwa Waisraeli kwa kuwatoa katika nchi ya Misri.
and to make: do because name my to/for lest to profane/begin: profane to/for eye: seeing [the] nation which they(masc.) in/on/with midst their which to know to(wards) them to/for eye: seeing their to/for to come out: send them from land: country/planet Egypt
10 Kwa hiyo nikawaongoza watoke Misri na kuwaleta jangwani.
and to come out: send them from land: country/planet Egypt and to come (in): bring them to(wards) [the] wilderness
11 Nikawapa amri zangu na kuwajulisha sheria zangu, kwa kuwa mtu anayezitii ataishi kwa hizo.
and to give: give to/for them [obj] statute my and [obj] justice: judgement my to know [obj] them which to make: do [obj] them [the] man and to live in/on/with them
12 Pia niliwapa Sabato zangu kama ishara kati yangu nao, ili wapate kujua kuwa Mimi Bwana niliwafanya kuwa watakatifu.
and also [obj] Sabbath my to give: give to/for them to/for to be to/for sign: indicator between me and between them to/for to know for I LORD to consecrate: consecate them
13 “‘Lakini watu wa Israeli waliniasi Mimi jangwani. Hawakufuata amri zangu, bali walikataa sheria zangu, ingawa mtu yule anayezitii ataishi kwa hizo sheria, nao walizinajisi Sabato zangu kabisa. Hivyo nilisema ningemwaga ghadhabu yangu juu yao na kuwaangamiza huko jangwani.
and to rebel in/on/with me house: household Israel in/on/with wilderness in/on/with statute my not to go: walk and [obj] justice: judgement my to reject which to make: do [obj] them [the] man and to live in/on/with them and [obj] Sabbath my to profane/begin: profane much and to say to/for to pour: pour rage my upon them in/on/with wilderness to/for to end: finish them
14 Lakini kwa ajili ya Jina langu nikafanya kile ambacho kitalifanya Jina langu lisitiwe unajisi machoni mwa mataifa ambao mbele yao nilikuwa nimewatoa Waisraeli.
and to make: do because name my to/for lest to profane/begin: profane to/for eye: seeing [the] nation which to come out: send them to/for eye: seeing their
15 Tena kwa mkono ulioinuliwa nikawaapia huko jangwani kwamba nisingewaingiza katika nchi niliyokuwa nimewapa, yaani, nchi itiririkayo maziwa na asali, nchi nzuri kuliko zote,
and also I to lift: vow hand: vow my to/for them in/on/with wilderness to/for lest to come (in): bring [obj] them to(wards) [the] land: country/planet which to give: give to flow: flowing milk and honey beauty he/she/it to/for all [the] land: country/planet
16 kwa sababu walikataa sheria zangu na hawakufuata amri zangu na wakazinajisi Sabato zangu. Kwa kuwa mioyo yao iliandama sanamu zao.
because in/on/with justice: judgement my to reject and [obj] statute my not to go: walk in/on/with them and [obj] Sabbath my to profane/begin: profane for after idol their heart their to go: went
17 Lakini niliwahurumia wala sikuwaangamiza wala hakuwafuta kabisa jangwani.
and to pity eye my upon them from to ruin them and not to make [obj] them consumption in/on/with wilderness
18 Niliwaambia watoto wao kule jangwani, “Msifuate amri za baba zenu wala kushika sheria zao au kujinajisi kwa sanamu zao.
and to say to(wards) son: child their in/on/with wilderness in/on/with statute: decree father your not to go: walk and [obj] justice: judgement their not to keep: obey and in/on/with idol their not to defile
19 Mimi ndimi Bwana, Mungu wenu, fuateni amri zangu tena kuweni waangalifu kushika sheria zangu.
I LORD God your in/on/with statute my to go: walk and [obj] justice: judgement my to keep: careful and to make: do [obj] them
20 Zitakaseni Sabato zangu ili ziwe ishara kati yangu nanyi. Ndipo mtakapojua kuwa Mimi ndimi Bwana, Mungu wenu.”
and [obj] Sabbath my to consecrate: consecate and to be to/for sign: indicator between me and between you to/for to know for I LORD God your
21 “‘Lakini watoto hao wakaniasi: Hawakufuata amri zangu, wala hawakuwa waangalifu kushika sheria zangu, ingawa mtu anayezitii anaishi kwa hizo sheria, nao wakazinajisi Sabato zangu. Hivyo nikasema ningemwaga ghadhabu yangu juu yao na kutimiza hasira yangu dhidi yao huko jangwani.
and to rebel in/on/with me [the] son: child in/on/with statute my not to go: walk and [obj] justice: judgement my not to keep: careful to/for to make: do [obj] them which to make: do [obj] them [the] man and to live in/on/with them [obj] Sabbath my to profane/begin: profane and to say to/for to pour: pour rage my upon them to/for to end: expend face: anger my in/on/with them in/on/with wilderness
22 Lakini nikauzuia mkono wangu na kwa ajili ya Jina langu nikafanya kile ambacho kingelifanya Jina langu lisitiwe unajisi machoni mwa mataifa ambao mbele yao nilikuwa nimewatoa Waisraeli.
and to return: turn back [obj] hand my and to make: do because name my to/for lest to profane/begin: profane to/for eye: seeing [the] nation which to come out: send [obj] them to/for eye: seeing their
23 Tena kwa mkono ulioinuliwa nikawaapia huko jangwani kwamba ningewatawanya miongoni mwa mataifa na kuwatawanya katika nchi mbalimbali,
also I to lift: vow [obj] hand: vow my to/for them in/on/with wilderness to/for to scatter [obj] them in/on/with nation and to/for to scatter [obj] them in/on/with land: country/planet
24 kwa sababu hawakutii sheria zangu lakini walikuwa wamekataa amri zangu na kuzinajisi Sabato zangu, nayo macho yao yakatamani sanamu za baba zao.
because justice: judgement my not to make: do and statute my to reject and [obj] Sabbath my to profane/begin: profane and after idol father their to be eye their
25 Pia niliwaacha wafuate amri ambazo hazikuwa nzuri na sheria ambazo mtu hawezi kuishi kwa hizo sheria.
and also I to give: give to/for them statute: decree not pleasant and justice: judgement not to live in/on/with them
26 Nikawaacha wanajisiwe kwa matoleo yao, kuwatoa wazaliwa wao wa kwanza kafara kwa sanamu, yaani, kule kuwapitisha wazaliwa wao wa kwanza kwenye moto, nipate kuwajaza na hofu ili wajue kwamba Mimi ndimi Bwana.’
and to defile [obj] them in/on/with gift their in/on/with to pass all firstborn womb because be desolate: destroyed them because which to know which I LORD
27 “Kwa hiyo, mwanadamu, sema na watu wa Israeli na uwaambie, ‘Hili ndilo Bwana Mwenyezi asemalo: Katika hili pia, baba zenu walinikufuru kwa kuniacha mimi:
to/for so to speak: speak to(wards) house: household Israel son: child man and to say to(wards) them thus to say Lord YHWH/God still this to blaspheme [obj] me father your in/on/with be unfaithful they in/on/with me unfaithfulness
28 Nilipowaleta katika nchi ile ambayo nilikuwa nimeapa kuwapa na kuona kilima chochote kirefu au mti wowote wenye majani mengi, huko walitoa dhabihu zao, wakatoa sadaka ambazo zilichochea hasira yangu, wakafukiza uvumba wenye harufu nzuri na kumimina sadaka zao za kinywaji.
and to come (in): bring them to(wards) [the] land: country/planet which to lift: vow [obj] hand: vow my to/for to give: give [obj] her to/for them and to see: see all hill to exalt and all tree leafy and to sacrifice there [obj] sacrifice their and to give: give there vexation offering their and to set: put there aroma soothing their and to pour there [obj] drink offering their
29 Ndipo nikawaambia: Ni nini maana yake hapa mahali pa juu pa kuabudia miungu mnapopaendea?’” (Basi jina la mahali pale panaitwa Bama hata hivi leo.)
and to say to(wards) them what? [the] high place which you(m. p.) [the] to come (in): come there and to call: call by name her Bamah till [the] day: today [the] this
30 “Kwa hiyo iambie nyumba ya Israeli: ‘Hili ndilo Bwana Mwenyezi asemalo: Je, mtajinajisi kama vile baba zenu walivyofanya na kutamani vinyago vyao vya machukizo?
to/for so to say to(wards) house: household Israel thus to say Lord YHWH/God in/on/with way: conduct father your you(m. p.) to defile and after abomination their you(m. p.) to fornicate
31 Mnapotoa matoleo yenu, yaani, wana wenu kafara katika moto, mnaendelea kujinajisi na sanamu zenu zote hadi siku hii ya leo. Je, niulizwe neno na ninyi, ee nyumba ya Israeli? Hakika kama niishivyo, asema Bwana Mwenyezi, mimi sitaulizwa neno na ninyi.
and in/on/with to lift: bear gift your in/on/with to pass son: child your in/on/with fire you(m. p.) to defile to/for all idol your till [the] day: today and I to seek to/for you house: household Israel alive I utterance Lord YHWH/God if: surely no to seek to/for you
32 “‘Lile lililoko mioyoni mwenu kamwe halitatokea, mnaposema, “Tunataka tuwe kama mataifa mengine, kama watu wengine wa dunia, wanaotumikia miti na mawe.”
and [the] to ascend: rise upon spirit your to be not to be which you(m. p.) to say to be like/as nation like/as family [the] land: country/planet to/for to minister tree: wood and stone
33 Hakika kama niishivyo asema Bwana Mwenyezi, nitatawala juu yenu kwa mkono wa nguvu na kwa mkono ulionyooshwa na kwa ghadhabu iliyomwagwa.
alive I utterance Lord YHWH/God if: surely yes not in/on/with hand: power strong and in/on/with arm to stretch and in/on/with rage to pour: pour to reign upon you
34 Nitawatoa toka katika mataifa na kuwakusanya kutoka nchi mlikotawanywa, kwa mkono wa nguvu na kwa mkono ulionyooshwa na kwa ghadhabu iliyomwagwa.
and to come out: send [obj] you from [the] people and to gather [obj] you from [the] land: country/planet which to scatter in/on/with them in/on/with hand: power strong and in/on/with arm to stretch and in/on/with rage to pour: pour
35 Nitawaleta katika jangwa la mataifa na huko nitatekeleza hukumu juu yenu uso kwa uso.
and to come (in): bring [obj] you to(wards) wilderness [the] people and to judge with you there face to(wards) face
36 Kama nilivyowahukumu baba zenu katika jangwa la nchi ya Misri, ndivyo nitakavyowahukumu ninyi, asema Bwana Mwenyezi.
like/as as which to judge with father your in/on/with wilderness land: country/planet Egypt so to judge with you utterance Lord YHWH/God
37 Nitawafanya mpite chini ya fimbo yangu, nami nitawaleta katika mkataba wa Agano.
and to pass [obj] you underneath: under [the] tribe: staff and to come (in): bring [obj] you in/on/with pledge [the] covenant
38 Nitawaondoa miongoni mwenu wale wanaohalifu na wale wanaoasi dhidi yangu. Ingawa nitawatoa katika nchi wanazoishi, hawataingia katika nchi ya Israeli. Ndipo mtakapojua kuwa Mimi ndimi Bwana.
and to purify from you [the] to rebel and [the] to transgress in/on/with me from land: country/planet sojourning their to come out: send [obj] them and to(wards) land: soil Israel not to come (in): come and to know for I LORD
39 “‘Kwa habari zenu ninyi, ee nyumba ya Israeli, hili ndilo Bwana Mwenyezi asemalo: Nendeni mkatumikie sanamu zenu, kila mmoja wenu! Lakini baadaye hakika mtanisikiliza mimi nanyi hamtalinajisi tena Jina langu takatifu, kwa matoleo yenu na sanamu zenu.
and you(m. p.) house: household Israel thus to say Lord YHWH/God man: anyone idol his to go: went to serve and after if nothing you to hear: hear to(wards) me and [obj] name holiness my not to profane/begin: profane still in/on/with gift your and in/on/with idol your
40 Kwa kuwa katika mlima wangu mtakatifu, mlima mrefu wa Israeli, asema Bwana Mwenyezi, hapo katika nchi nyumba yote ya Israeli itanitumikia mimi, nami huko nitawakubali. Huko nitataka sadaka zenu na matoleo ya malimbuko yenu, pamoja na dhabihu zenu takatifu zote.
for in/on/with mountain: mount holiness my in/on/with mountain: mount height Israel utterance Lord YHWH/God there to serve: minister me all house: household Israel all his in/on/with land: country/planet there to accept them and there to seek [obj] contribution your and [obj] first: best tribute your in/on/with all holiness your
41 Nitawakubali ninyi kama uvumba wenye harufu nzuri wakati nitakapowatoa katika mataifa na kuwakusanya kutoka nchi mlipokuwa mmetawanyika, nami nitajionyesha kuwa mtakatifu miongoni mwenu na machoni mwa mataifa.
in/on/with aroma soothing to accept [obj] you in/on/with to come out: send I [obj] you from [the] people and to gather [obj] you from [the] land: country/planet which to scatter in/on/with them and to consecrate: holiness in/on/with you to/for eye: seeing [the] nation
42 Ndipo mtakapojua kuwa Mimi ndimi Bwana, nitakapowaleta katika nchi ya Israeli, nchi niliyokuwa nimeapa kwa mkono ulioinuliwa kuwapa baba zenu.
and to know for I LORD in/on/with to come (in): bring I [obj] you to(wards) land: soil Israel to(wards) [the] land: country/planet which to lift: vow [obj] hand: vow my to/for to give: give [obj] her to/for father your
43 Hapo ndipo nitakapokumbuka mwenendo wenu na matendo yenu yote ambayo kwayo mlijitia unajisi, nanyi mtajichukia wenyewe kwa ajili ya maovu yote mliyokuwa mmetenda.
and to remember there [obj] way: conduct your and [obj] all wantonness your which to defile in/on/with them and to loath in/on/with face of your in/on/with all bad: evil your which to make
44 Nanyi mtajua kuwa mimi ndimi Bwana, nitakaposhughulika nanyi kwa ajili ya Jina langu na wala si sawasawa na njia zenu mbaya na matendo yenu maovu, ee nyumba ya Israeli, asema Bwana Mwenyezi.’”
and to know for I LORD in/on/with to make: do I with you because name my not like/as way: conduct your [the] bad: evil and like/as wantonness your [the] to ruin house: household Israel utterance Lord YHWH/God
45 Neno la Bwana likanijia kusema:
and to be word LORD to(wards) me to/for to say
46 “Mwanadamu, uelekeze uso wako upande wa kusini, hubiri juu ya upande wa kusini na utoe unabii juu ya msitu wa Negebu.
son: child man to set: make face your way: direction south [to] and to drip/prophesy to(wards) south and to prophesy to(wards) wood [the] land: country Negeb
47 Waambie watu wa Negebu: ‘Sikieni neno la Bwana. Hili ndilo Bwana Mwenyezi asemalo: Ninakaribia kukutia moto, nao utateketeza miti yako yote, mibichi na iliyokauka. Miali ya moto haitaweza kuzimwa na kila uso kutoka kusini mpaka kaskazini utakaushwa kwa moto huo.
and to say to/for wood [the] Negeb to hear: hear word LORD thus to say Lord YHWH/God look! I to kindle in/on/with you fire and to eat in/on/with you all tree fresh and all tree dry not to quench flame flame and to burn in/on/with her all face from Negeb north [to]
48 Kila mmoja ataona kuwa mimi Bwana ndiye niliyeuwasha huo moto, nao hautazimwa.’”
and to see: see all flesh for I LORD to burn: burn her not to quench
49 Ndipo niliposema, “Aa, Bwana Mwenyezi! Wao hunisema, ‘Huyu si huzungumza mafumbo tu?’”
and to say alas! Lord YHWH/God they(masc.) to say to/for me not to use a proverb proverb he/she/it
