Ezekieli 8
1 Katika siku ya tano ya mwezi wa sita mwaka wa sita, baada ya kupelekwa uhamishoni nilipokuwa nimeketi katika nyumba yangu na wazee wa Yuda walikuwa wameketi mbele yangu, mkono wa Bwana Mwenyezi ulikuja juu yangu.
And it was - in the year sixth in the sixth [month] on [day] five of the month I [was] sitting in house my and [the] elders of Judah [were] sitting before me and it fell on me there [the] hand of [the] Lord Yahweh.
2 Nikatazama, nikaona umbo mfano wa mwanadamu. Kutokana na kile kilichoonekana kuwa kiuno chake kuelekea chini alifanana na moto. Kuanzia kwenye kiuno kuelekea juu sura yake kama chuma kingʼaavyo kikiwa ndani ya moto.
And I saw and there! a likeness like [the] appearance of fire [was] from [the] appearance of hips his and downwards fire and [was] from hips his and upwards like [the] appearance of brightness like [the] appearance of shining substance towards.
3 Akanyoosha kitu kilichoonekana kama mkono, akaniinua kwa kushika nywele za kichwa changu. Roho akaniinua juu kati ya nchi na mbingu nikiwa katika maono ya Mungu akanichukua mpaka Yerusalemu, kwenye ingilio la lango la upande wa kaskazini ya ukumbi wa ndani, mahali iliposimama ile sanamu ichocheayo wivu.
And he stretched out [the] form of a hand and he took me by [the] hair of head my and it carried me a spirit - between the earth and between the heavens and it brought me Jerusalem towards in visions of God to [the] opening of [the] gate the inner [court] which faces north-ward where [was] there [the] location of [the] idol of jealousy which provokes to jealousy.
4 Hapo mbele yangu palikuwa na utukufu wa Mungu wa Israeli, kama utukufu ule niliouona katika maono kule ua wa ndani.
And there! [was] there [the] glory of [the] God of Israel like the appearance which I had seen on the plain.
5 Kisha akaniambia, “Mwanadamu, tazama kuelekea kaskazini.” Hivyo nikatazama na kwenye ingilio upande wa kaskazini wa lango la madhabahu, nikaona sanamu hii ya wivu.
And he said to me O son of humankind lift up please eyes your [the] direction north-ward and I lifted up eyes my [the] direction north-ward and there! from [the] north of [the] gate of the altar [the] idol of jealousy this [was] in the entrance.
6 Ndipo akaniambia, “Mwanadamu, je, unaona yale wanayofanya, haya mambo ya machukizo kabisa nyumba ya Israeli wanayotenda hapa, ambayo yatanifanya niende mbali na mahali pangu patakatifu? Lakini utaona vitu ambavyo vinachukiza zaidi hata kuliko hivi.”
And he said to me O son of humankind ¿ seeing [are] you (what [are] they? *Q(K)*) doing abominations great which [the] house of Israel - [are] doing here to be far from at sanctuary my and again you will return you will see abominations great.
7 Kisha akanileta mpaka ingilio la ukumbi. Nikatazama, nami nikaona tundu ukutani.
And he brought me to [the] entrance of the court and I saw and there! a hole one [was] in the wall.
8 Akaniambia, “Mwanadamu, sasa toboa kwenye ukuta huu.” Ndipo nikatoboa ule ukuta, nikaona hapo pana mlango.
And he said to me O son of humankind dig please in the wall and I dug in the wall and there! an opening one.
9 Naye akaniambia, “Ingia ndani, ukaone maovu na machukizo wanayofanya humu.”
And he said to me go and see the abominations wicked which they [are] doing here.
10 Hivyo nikaingia ndani na kutazama, nikaona kuta zote zimechorwa kila aina ya vitu vitambaavyo na ya wanyama wachukizao wa kila aina na sanamu zote za nyumba ya Israeli.
And I went and I saw and there! every form of creeping thing and animal detestable thing and all [the] idols of [the] house of Israel [was] carved on the wall all around - all around.
11 Mbele yao walisimama wazee sabini wa nyumba ya Israeli, naye Yaazania mwana wa Shafani alikuwa amesimama miongoni mwao. Kila mmoja alikuwa na chetezo mkononi na moshi wa harufu nzuri ya uvumba ulikuwa unapanda juu.
And seventy man from [the] elders of [the] house of Israel and Jaazaniah [the] son of Shaphan [was] standing in midst of them [were] standing before them and everyone censer his [was] in hand his and [the] fragrance of [the] cloud of incense [was] going up.
12 Akaniambia, “Mwanadamu, umeona wanayoyafanya wazee wa nyumba ya Israeli gizani, kila mmoja kwenye sehemu yake mwenyewe ya kufanyia ibada za sanamu yake? Wao husema, ‘Bwana hatuoni, Bwana ameiacha nchi.’”
And he said to me ¿ have you seen O son of humankind [that] which [the] elders of [the] house of Israel [are] doing in the darkness everyone in [the] rooms of carved image his for [they are] saying not Yahweh [is] seeing us he has forsaken Yahweh the land.
13 Akasema tena, “Bado utaona machukizo wanayofanya ambayo ni makubwa kuliko haya.”
And he said to me again you will return you will see abominations great which they [are] doing.
14 Ndipo akanileta mpaka ingilio la lango la kaskazini la nyumba ya Bwana, nami nikaona wanawake wameketi hapo, wakimwombolezea Tamuzi.
And he brought me to [the] entrance of [the] gate of [the] house of Yahweh which [was] to the north towards and there! there the women [were] sitting bewailing Tammuz.
15 Akaniambia, “Unaliona hili, mwanadamu? Utaona vitu ambavyo ni machukizo kuliko hili.”
And he said to me ¿ have you seen O son of humankind again you will return you will see abominations great more than these.
16 Ndipo akanileta mpaka kwenye ukumbi wa ndani wa nyumba ya Bwana, nako huko katika ingilio la Hekalu, kati ya baraza na madhabahu, walikuwepo wanaume wapatao ishirini na watano. Wakiwa wamelipa kisogo Hekalu la Bwana na kuelekeza nyuso zao upande wa mashariki, wakilisujudia jua huko mashariki.
And he brought me to [the] court of [the] house of Yahweh inner and there! [were at] [the] entrance of [the] temple of Yahweh between the porch and between the altar about twenty and five person[s] backs their [were] to [the] temple of Yahweh and faces their [were] east-ward and they [were] bowing down east-ward to the sun.
17 Akaniambia, “Je, umeona hili mwanadamu? Je, ni jambo dogo sana kwa nyumba ya Yuda kufanya machukizo wanayoyafanya hapa? Je, ni lazima pia waijaze nchi dhuluma na kuendelea siku zote kunikasirisha? Watazame wanavyonibania pua kana kwamba ninanuka!
And he said to me ¿ have you seen O son of humankind ¿ is it [too] trifling for [the] house of Judah for doing the abominations which they have done here that they have filled the land violence and they have returned to provoke to anger me and there they [are] sending the branch to nose their.
18 Kwa hiyo nitashughulika nao kwa hasira, sitawaonea huruma wala kuwaachilia. Wajapopiga makelele masikioni mwangu, sitawasikiliza.”
And also I I will act in rage not it will look with compassion eye my and not I will show pity and they will call out in ears my a voice great and not I will hear them.
