< Ezekieli 23 >
1 Neno la Bwana likanijia kusema:
And it came [the] word of Yahweh to me saying.
2 “Mwanadamu, walikuwepo wanawake wawili, binti wa mama mmoja.
O son of humankind two women daughters of a mother one they were.
3 Wakawa makahaba huko Misri, wakajitia kwenye ukahaba tangu ujana wao. Katika nchi ile vifua vyao vya ubikira vikakumbatiwa huko na wakapoteza ubikira wao.
And they acted as prostitutes in Egypt in youth their they acted as prostitutes there they were handled breasts their and there they squeezed [the] nipples of virginiti their.
4 Mkubwa aliitwa Ohola na mdogo wake Oholiba. Walikuwa wangu nao wakazaa wavulana na msichana. Ohola ni Samaria, Oholiba ni Yerusalemu.
And names their [was] Oholah the old [one] and [was] Oholibah sister her and they belonged to me and they bore sons and daughters and names their [was] Samaria Oholah and [was] Jerusalem Oholibah.
5 “Ohola akajitia kwenye ukahaba alipokuwa bado ni wangu, akatamani sana wapenzi wake, mashujaa Waashuru,
And she acted as a prostitute Oholah under me and she lusted on lovers her to Assyria [were] warriors.
6 waliovaa nguo za buluu, watawala na majemadari, wote walikuwa wanaume vijana wa kuvutia, wapandao farasi.
Clothed of blue governors and officials young men of desire all of them horsemen riders of horses.
7 Akafanya ukahaba na wasomi wote wa Ashuru, na kujinajisi kwa sanamu zote za kila mwanaume aliyemtamani.
And she gave prostitution her to them [were] [the] choicest of [the] sons of Assyria all of them and by all [those] whom she lusted after by all idols their she made herself unclean.
8 Hakuacha ukahaba wake aliouanza huko Misri, wakati ambapo tangu ujana wake wanaume walilala naye, wakikumbatia kifua cha ubikira wake na kumwaga tamaa zao juu yake.
And prostitution her since Egypt not she forsook if her they had lain with in youth her and they they had squeezed [the] nipples of virginiti her and they had poured out prostitution their on her.
9 “Kwa hiyo nilimtia mikononi mwa wapenzi wake, Waashuru, kwa kuwa ndio aliowatamani.
Therefore I gave her in [the] hand of lovers her in [the] hand of [the] people of Assyria whom she had lusted on them.
10 Wakamvua nguo zake wakamwacha uchi, wakawachukua wanawe na binti zake, naye wakamuua kwa upanga. Akawa kitu cha kudharauliwa miongoni mwa wanawake na adhabu ikatolewa dhidi yake.
They they uncovered nakedness her sons her and daughters her they took and her with the sword they killed and she became a name to women and judgments they brought about on her.
11 “Oholiba dada yake aliliona jambo hili, lakini kwa tamaa zake na ukahaba wake, akaharibu tabia zake kuliko Ohola dada yake.
And she saw sister her Oholibah and she acted corruptly lust her more than her and prostitution her more than [the] prostitutions of sister her.
12 Yeye naye aliwatamani Waashuru, watawala na majemadari, mashujaa waliovalia sare, wapandao farasi, wanaume vijana wote waliovutia.
To [the] sons of Assyria she lusted governors and officials warriors clothed of perfection horsemen riders of horses [were] young men of desire all of them.
13 Nikaona kuwa yeye pia alijinajisi, wote wawili wakaelekea njia moja.
And I saw that she had made herself unclean way one [belonged] to both of them.
14 “Lakini yeye akazidisha ukahaba wake. Akaona wanaume waliochorwa ukutani, picha za Wakaldayo waliovalia nguo nyekundu,
And she added to prostitution her and she saw men of a carved [thing] on the wall [the] images of ([the] Chaldeans *Q(k)*) inscribed with vermilion.
15 wakiwa na mikanda viunoni mwao na vilemba vichwani mwao, wote walifanana na maafisa wa Babeli wapandao magari ya vita, wenyeji wa Ukaldayo.
Girded of a waistband on hips their overhung of turbans on heads their [the] appearance of of icers all of them [the] likeness of [the] sons of Babylon Chaldea [was] [the] land of kindred their.
16 Mara tu alipowaona, aliwatamani, akatuma wajumbe kwao huko Ukaldayo.
(And she lusted! *Q(K)*) on them to [the] sight of eyes her and she sent messengers to them Chaldea towards.
17 Ndipo hao Wababeli wakaja kwake kwenye kitanda cha mapenzi, nao katika tamaa zao wakamtia unajisi. Baada ya kutiwa unajisi, akawaacha kwa kuwachukia.
And they came to her [the] sons of Babylon to a bed of love and they defiled her by prostitution their and she became unclean by them and it was alienated self her from them.
18 Alipofanya ukahaba wake waziwazi na kuonyesha hadharani uchi wake, nilimwacha kwa kumchukia, kama vile nilivyokuwa nimemwacha dada yake.
And she uncovered prostitution her and she uncovered nakedness her and it was alienated self my from with her just as it had been alienated self my from with sister her.
19 Lakini akazidisha zaidi ukahaba wake alipozikumbuka siku zake za ujana, alipokuwa kahaba huko Misri.
And she increased prostitution her to remember [the] days of youth her when she acted as a prostitute in [the] land of Egypt.
20 Huko aliwatamani wapenzi wake, ambao viungo vyao vya uzazi ni kama vya punda, na kile kiwatokacho ni kama kiwatokacho farasi.
And she lusted! on paramours their whom [was the] flesh of donkeys flesh their and [was the] ejaculation of horses ejaculation their.
21 Hivyo ulitamani uasherati wa ujana wako wakati ulipokuwa Misri, kifua chako kilipokumbatiwa, na walipokutomasa kwa sababu ya matiti yako machanga.
And you sought [the] licentiousness of youth your when squeezed since Egypt nipples your on account of [the] breasts of youth your.
22 “Kwa hiyo, Oholiba, hili ndilo Bwana Mwenyezi asemalo: Nitawachochea wapenzi wako wawe kinyume na wewe, wale uliowaacha kwa kuchukia, nitawaleta dhidi yako kutoka kila upande:
Therefore O Oholibah thus he says [the] Lord Yahweh here I [am] about to rouse lovers your on you [those] whom it was alienated self your from them and I will bring them on you from round about.
23 Wababeli na Wakaldayo wote, watu kutoka Pekodi, na Shoa na Koa, wakiwa pamoja na Waashuru wote, vijana wazuri, wote wakiwa watawala na majemadari, maafisa wa magari ya vita na watu wa vyeo vya juu, wote wakiwa wamepanda farasi.
[the] people of Babylon and all [the] Chaldeans Pekod and Shoa and Koa all [the] people of Assyria with them young men of desire governors and officials all of of them icers and called [ones] riders of horses all of them.
24 Watakuja dhidi yako wakiwa na silaha, magari ya vita, magari ya kukokota, pamoja na umati mkubwa wa watu. Watakuzingira pande zote kwa ngao na vigao na kofia za chuma. Nitakutia mikononi mwao ili wakuadhibu, nao watakuadhibu sawasawa na sheria zao.
And they will come on you weapon[s] chariot[s] and wheel[s] and with a company of peoples body shield and shield and helmet they will set up on you all around and I will set before them judgment and they will judge you by judgments their.
25 Nitaelekeza wivu wa hasira yangu dhidi yako, nao watakushughulikia kwa hasira kali. Watakatilia mbali pua yako na masikio yako, na wale watakaosalia miongoni mwako watauawa kwa upanga. Watachukua wana wako na binti zako, na wale watakaosalia miongoni mwenu watateketezwa kwa moto.
And I will set jealousy my on you and they will deal with with you in rage nose your and ears your they will remove and remainder your by the sword it will fall they sons your and daughters your they will take and remainder your it will be consumed by fire.
26 Watakuvua pia nguo zako na kuchukua mapambo yako yaliyotengenezwa kwa vito na dhahabu.
And they will strip off you clothes your and they will take away [the] articles of beauty your.
27 Hivyo ndivyo nitakavyokomesha uasherati wako na ukahaba wako uliouanza huko Misri. Hutatazama vitu hivi kwa kuvitamani tena, wala kukumbuka Misri tena.
And I will cause to cease licentiousness your from you and prostitution your from [the] land of Egypt and not you will lift up eyes your to them and Egypt not you will remember again.
28 “Kwa hiyo hili ndilo Bwana Mwenyezi asemalo: Ninakaribia kukutia mikononi mwa wale unaowachukia, kwa wale uliojitenga nao kwa kuwachukia.
For thus he says [the] Lord Yahweh here I [am] about to give you in [the] hand of [those] whom you hate in [the] hand of [those] whom it has been alienated self your from them.
29 Watakushughulikia kwa chuki na kukunyangʼanya kila kitu ulichokifanyia kazi. Watakuacha uchi na mtupu na aibu ya ukahaba wako itafunuliwa. Uasherati wako na uzinzi wako
And they will deal with with you in hatred and they will take all property your and they will leave you nakedness and bareness and it will be uncovered [the] nakedness of prostitutions your and licentiousness your and prostitution your.
30 umekuletea haya yote, kwa sababu ulitamani mataifa na kujinajisi kwa sanamu zao.
They have done these [things] to you because acted as a prostitute you after nations on that you made yourself unclean by idols their.
31 Umeiendea njia ya dada yako, hivyo nitakitia kikombe chake mkononi mwako.
In [the] way of sister your you have walked and I will put cup her in hand your.
32 “Hili ndilo Bwana Mwenyezi asemalo: “Utakinywea kikombe cha dada yako, kikombe kikubwa na chenye kina kirefu; nitaletea juu yako dharau na dhihaka, kwa kuwa kimejaa sana.
Thus he says [the] Lord Yahweh [the] cup of sister your you will drink deep and wide it will become laughter and mockery much to contain.
33 Utalewa ulevi na kujawa huzuni, kikombe cha maangamizo na ukiwa, kikombe cha dada yako Samaria.
Drunkenness and sorrow you will be filled [is] a cup of horror and desolation [the] cup of sister your Samaria.
34 Utakinywa chote na kukimaliza; utakivunja vipande vipande na kuyararua matiti yako. Nimenena haya, asema Bwana Mwenyezi.
And you will drink it and you will drain [it] and fragments its you will break and breasts your you will tear out for I I have spoken [the] utterance of [the] Lord Yahweh.
35 “Kwa hiyo hili ndilo Bwana Mwenyezi asemalo: Kwa kuwa tangu uliponisahau mimi na kunitupa nyuma yako, lazima ubebe matokeo ya uasherati wako na ukahaba wako.”
Therefore thus he says [the] Lord Yahweh because you have forgotten me and you have thrown me behind back your and also you bear licentiousness your and prostitution your.
36 Bwana akaniambia, “Mwanadamu, Je, utawahukumu Ohola na Oholiba? Basi wakabili kwa ajili ya matendo yao ya machukizo,
And he said Yahweh to me O son of humankind ¿ will you judge Oholah and Oholibah and declare to them abominations their.
37 kwa kuwa wamefanya uzinzi na damu imo mikononi mwao. Wamefanya uzinzi na sanamu zao, hata wamewatoa watoto wao walionizalia kuwa kafara, kuwa chakula kwao.
For they have committed adultery and blood [is] on hands their and with idols their they have committed adultery and also children their whom they bore to me they made pass through to them to food.
38 Pia wamenifanyia hili: wakati huo huo wamenajisi patakatifu pangu na kuzitangua Sabato zangu.
Again this they have done to me they have made unclean sanctuary my on the day that and sabbaths my they have profaned.
39 Siku ile ile walitoa watoto wao kuwa kafara kwa sanamu zao, waliingia patakatifu pangu na kupatia unajisi. Hilo ndilo walilolifanya katika nyumba yangu.
And when had slaughtered they children their to idols their and they went into sanctuary my on the day that to profane it and there! thus they did in [the] midst of house my.
40 “Walituma hata wajumbe kuwaita watu kutoka mbali, nao walipowasili ulioga kwa ajili yao, ukapaka macho yako rangi na ukavaa mapambo yako yaliyotengenezwa kwa vito vya dhahabu.
And also for they sent for men [who] come from a distance whom a messenger [was] sent to them and there! they came for whom you bathed you painted eyes your and you put on ornament[s].
41 Ukaketi kwenye kiti cha anasa, kukiwa na meza iliyoandaliwa mbele yake ambayo juu yake ulikuwa umeweka uvumba na mafuta ambayo yalikuwa yangu.
And you sat on a couch glorious and a table [was] arranged before it and incense my and oil my you put on it.
42 “Kelele za umati wa watu wasiojali zilikuwa zimemzunguka, wakaleta watu wengi waliokuwa wakifanya makelele na walevi kutoka nyikani, ambao walitia bangili kwenye mikono ya yule mwanamke na dada yake na pia taji nzuri za kupendeza kwenye vichwa vyao.
And [the] sound of a multitude at ease [was] in her and to men from [the] multitude of humankind [were] brought (Sabeans *Q(K)*) from [the] wilderness and they put bracelets to hands their and a crown of beauty on heads their.
43 Ndipo nikasema kuhusu yule aliyechakazwa na uzinzi, ‘Basi wamtumie kama kahaba, kwa kuwa ndivyo alivyo.’
And I said of the [woman] worn out adulteries (now they will act as a prostitutes *Q(K)*) prostitution her and she.
44 Nao wakazini naye. Kama vile watu wazinivyo na kahaba, ndiyo hivyo walivyozini na hao wanawake waasherati, Ohola na Oholiba.
And he went into her as goes into a woman a prostitute so they went into Oholah and into Oholibah [the] women of licentiousness.
45 Lakini watu wenye haki, watawahukumia adhabu wanawake wafanyao uzinzi na kumwaga damu, kwa kuwa ni wazinzi na damu iko mikononi mwao.
And people righteous they they will judge them judgment of adulteresses and judgment of [women who] shed blood for [are] adulteresses they and blood [is] on hands their.
46 “Hili ndilo Bwana Mwenyezi asemalo, Leteni watu wengi wenye makelele dhidi yao na uwaache wapate hofu na watekwe nyara.
For thus he says [the] Lord Yahweh bring up on them a company and give over them to terror and to spoil.
47 Hao watu wengi watawapiga kwa mawe na kuwaua kwa panga zao, watawaua wana wao na binti zao na kuzichoma nyumba zao.
And they will stone on them stone[s] [the] company and they will cut down them with swords their sons their and daughters their they will kill and houses their with fire they will burn.
48 “Hivyo nitaukomesha uasherati katika nchi, ili wanawake wote wapate onyo nao wasije wakafanya uasherati kama ninyi mlivyofanya.
And I will cause to cease licentiousness from the land and they will be warned all the women and not they will do like licentiousness your.
49 Utapata adhabu kwa ajili ya uasherati wako na kuchukua matokeo ya dhambi zako za uasherati. Ndipo utakapojua kuwa Mimi ndimi Bwana Mwenyezi.”
And people will requite licentiousness your to you and [the] sins of idols your you will bear and you will know that I [am the] Lord Yahweh.
