Ezekieli 4
1 “Mwanadamu, sasa chukua tofali, uliweke mbele yako na uchore juu yake ramani ya mji wa Yerusalemu.
And you O son of humankind take yourself a brick and you will set it before you and you will inscribe on it a city Jerusalem.
2 Kisha uuzingire: Simamisha askari dhidi yake kuuzunguka, uzunguke kwa majeshi, weka kambi dhidi yake pande zote pamoja na magogo ya kubomolea boma vitani.
And you will make on it a siege and you will build on it a siege-wall and you will pour out on it a mound and you will set up on it armies and set on it battering-rams all around.
3 Kisha chukua bamba la chuma, ukalisimamishe liwe kama ukuta wa chuma kati yako na huo mji, nawe uuelekeze uso wako. Huo mji utakuwa katika hali ya kuzingirwa, nawe utauzingira. Hii itakuwa ishara kwa nyumba ya Israeli.
And you take yourself a baking tray of iron and you will make it a wall of iron between you and between the city and you will direct face your to it and it will be in state of siege and you will lay siege on it [will be] a sign it for [the] house of Israel.
4 “Kisha ulale kwa upande wako wa kushoto na uweke dhambi za nyumba ya Israeli juu yake. Utazibeba dhambi zao kwa idadi ya siku utakazolala kwa huo upande mmoja.
And you lie down on side your left and you will put [the] iniquity of [the] house of Israel on it [the] number of the days which you will lie on it you will bear iniquity their.
5 Nimekupangia idadi ya siku kama miaka ya dhambi yao. Kwa hiyo kwa siku 390 utabeba dhambi za nyumba ya Israeli.
And I I have assigned to you [the] years of iniquity their to [the] number of days three hundreds and ninety day[s] and you will bear [the] iniquity of [the] house of Israel.
6 “Baada ya kumaliza hili, lala chini tena, wakati huu ulale chini kwa upande wa kuume, uchukue dhambi za nyumba ya Yuda. Nimekupangia siku arobaini, siku moja kwa kila mwaka mmoja.
And you will complete these and you will lie down on side your (right *Q(K)*) a second [time] and you will bear [the] iniquity of [the] house of Judah forty day[s] a day for the year a day for the year I have assigned it to you.
7 Geuza uso wako uelekeze kwenye kuzingirwa kwa Yerusalemu na mkono wako ambao haukuvikwa nguo tabiri dhidi yake.
And to [the] siege of Jerusalem you will direct face your and arm your [will be] bared and you will prophesy on it.
8 Nitakufunga kwa kamba ili usiweze kugeuka kutoka upande mmoja hadi upande mwingine, mpaka hapo utakapokuwa umetimiza siku za kuzingirwa kwako.
And there! I will put on you ropes and not you will turn yourself from side your to side your until completing you [the] days of siege your.
9 “Chukua ngano na shayiri, maharagwe na dengu, mtama na mawele, uviweke na kuvihifadhi vyote kwenye gudulia la kuhifadhia, na uvitumie kujitengenezea mkate. Utaula mkate huo kwa hizo siku 390 utakazokuwa umelala kwa upande mmoja.
And you take yourself wheat and barley and bean[s] and lentils and millet and spelt and you will put them in a vessel one and you will make them for yourself into bread [the] number of the days which you - [will be] lying on side your three hundreds and ninety day[s] you will eat it.
10 Pima shekeli ishirini za chakula utakachokula kwa kila siku, nawe utakula kwa wakati uliopangwa.
And food your which you will eat it by weight [will be] twenty shekel[s] to the day from time to time you will eat it.
11 Pia pima maji moja ya sita ya hini, nawe utakunywa kwa wakati uliopangwa.
And water by measure you will drink sixth of hin from time to time you will drink [it].
12 Nawe utakula chakula kama vile ambavyo ungekula mkate wa shayiri, uoke mkate mbele ya macho ya watu, ukitumia kinyesi cha mwanadamu.”
And a bread cake of barley you will eat it and it in [the] dung of [the] excrement of humankind you will bake it to eyes their.
13 Bwana akasema, “Hivi ndivyo watu wa Israeli watakavyokula chakula kilicho najisi miongoni mwa mataifa ninakowapeleka.”
And he said Yahweh thus they will eat [the] people of Israel bread their unclean among the nations where I will banish them there.
14 Ndipo nikasema, “Sivyo Bwana Mwenyezi! Kamwe mimi sijajitia unajisi. Tangu ujana wangu hadi sasa sijala kamwe kitu chochote kilichokufa au kilichoraruliwa na wanyama wa mwituni. Hakuna nyama yeyote najisi iliyoingia kinywani mwangu.”
And I said alas! O Lord Yahweh here! self my not [has been] made unclean and a carcass and a torn animal not I have eaten since youth my and until now and not it has gone in mouth my [the] flesh of unclean meat.
15 Akasema, “Vema sana, basi nitakuruhusu uoke mkate wako kwa kutumia kinyesi cha ngʼombe badala ya kinyesi cha mwanadamu.”
And he said to me see I give to you ([the] dung of *Q(k)*) cattle in place of [the] dung of humankind and you will make bread your on them.
16 Ndipo Mungu akaniambia, “Mwanadamu, mimi nitakatilia mbali upatikanaji wa chakula katika Yerusalemu. Watu watakula chakula cha kupimwa kwa wasiwasi pamoja na maji ya kupimiwa kwa kukata tamaa,
And he said to me O son of humankind here I [am] about to break [the] staff of bread in Jerusalem and they will eat bread by weight and in anxiety and water by measure and in horror they will drink.
17 kwa kuwa chakula na maji vitakuwa adimu. Watastajabiana kila mmoja, nao watadhoofika kwa sababu ya dhambi yao.
So that they may lack bread and water and they will be appalled everyone and brother his and they will waste away in iniquity their.
