< Ezekieli 22 >
1 Kisha neno la Yahwe likanijia, kusema,
And it came [the] word of Yahweh to me saying.
2 “Sasa wewe, mwanadamu, Je! Utanihukumu? Utauhukumu mji kwa damu? Mfanye ajue machukizo yake yote.
And you O son of humankind ¿ will you judge ¿ will you judge [the] city of blood and you will make known to it all abominations its.
3 Utasema, 'Bwana Yahwe asema hivi: Huu ndiyo mji umbao umwagao damu kati yake ili kwamba mda wake ufike; mji ufanyao sanamu ili ujitie unajisi.
And you will say thus he says [the] Lord Yahweh O city [which] sheds blood in [the] midst of it to come time its and it has made idols on itself to become unclean.
4 Umekuwa na hatia kwa damu uliyoimwaga, na kufanya unajisi kwa sanamu ulizozitengeneza. Kwa kuwa umezileta karibu siku zako na kuzikaribia siku zako za mwisho. Kwa hiyo nitakufanya lawama kwa mataifa na kejeli katika uso wa kila nchi.
By blood your which you have shed you have become guilty and by idols your which you have made you have become unclean and you have brought near days your and you [masc] have come to years your there-fore I have made you a reproach to the nations and derision to all the lands.
5 Wote walio karibu na wale walio mbali nawe watakudhihaki, wewe mji mchafu, ujulikanao kila mahali kwa sifa mbaya kama kujaa machafuko.
The [nations] nearby and the [nations] far off from you they will deride you O unclean of name O great [one] of turmoil.
6 Tazama! Wakuu wa Israeli, kila mmoja kwa nguvu yake, wamekuja kwako kumwaga damu.
Here! [the] princes of Israel each to strength his they have been in you so as to shed blood.
7 Wamefanya udanganyifu kwa baba na mama ndani yako, na wametenda yaliyo kinyume juu ya wageni kati yako. Wamewatenda vibaya yatima na wajane ndani mwako.
Father and mother they have treated with contempt in you to the sojourner they have acted with oppression in [the] midst of you fatherless one and widow they have maltreated in you.
8 Umevidharau vitu vyangu vitakatifu na kuinajisi Sabato yangu.
Holy things my you have despised and sabbaths my you have profaned.
9 Watu wasingiziaji wamekuja kati yako ili kumwaga damu, na hula juu ya milima. Hufanya uovu kati yako.
People of slander they have been in you so as to shed blood and to the mountains they have eaten in you licentiousness they have done in [the] midst of you.
10 Uchi wa baba umefunuliwa ndani yako. Wamemtukana mwanamke mchafu ndani yako wakati wa uchafu wake.
[the] nakedness of A father someone has uncovered in you [the] [woman] unclean of the menstruation they have humiliated in you.
11 Watu waliofanya machukizo pamoja na wake za majirani zao, na watu wafanyao uchafu wa aibu kwa mke wa mwanao mwenyewe; watu wawatukanao dada zao wenyewe-binti za baba zao wenyewe-haya yote yapo miongoni mwanu.
And a man - with [the] wife of neighbor his he has done abomination and a man daughter-in-law his he has defiled in wickedness and a man sister his [the] daughter of father his he has humiliated in you.
12 Hawa watu huchukua rushwa kati yenu ili kumwaga damu. Umechukua faida na kuongeza riba nyingi sana, na umenisahau-hivi ndivyo Bwana Yahwe asemavyo.
A bribe they have taken in you so as to shed blood interest and interest you have taken and you have made unjust gain neighbor your by oppression and me you have forgotten [the] utterance of [the] Lord Yahweh.
13 Tazama! Kwa mkono wangu nimeipiga faida ambayo uliyoitengeneza kwa njia isiyo halali, na damu iliyo kati yako.
And here! I will strike palm my concerning unjust gain your which you have made and on blood your which they have been in [the] midst of you.
14 Je! Moyo wako utasimama, mikono yako itakuwa hodari katika siku wakati mimi mwenyewe nitakapo kushughulikia? Mimi, Yahwe, nasema hivi, na nitalifanya.
¿ Will it endure heart your or? will they be strong hands your to the days when I [am] about to deal with with you I Yahweh I have spoken and I will act.
15 Hivyo nitakutawanya kati ya mataifa na kukutawanya kati ya nchi mbali mbali. Katika njia hii, nitausafisha uchafu kutoka kwako.
And I will scatter you among the nations and I will disperse you among the lands and I will make an end of uncleanness your from you.
16 Hivyo utakuwa mchafu machoni mwa mataifa. Kisha utajua kwamba mimi ni Yahwe.”'
And you will be profaned by yourself to [the] eyes of nations and you will know that I [am] Yahweh.
17 Kisha neno la Yahwe likanijia, kusema,
And it came [the] word of Yahweh to me saying.
18 “Mwanadamu, nyumba ya Israeli imekuwa takataka kwangu. Wote wamekuwa masazo ya shaba na bati, na chuma na risasi kati yenu. Watakuwa kama takataka ya fedha katika tanuu.
O son of humankind they have become to me [the] house of Israel (dross *Q(K)*) all of them [are] copper and tin and iron and lead in [the] midst of a furnace dross silver they have become.
19 Kwa hiyo Bwana Yahwe asema hivi, 'Kwa sababu mmekuwa kama takataka, kwa hiyo, tazama! Nataka kuwakusanya katikakati ya mji wa Yerusalemu.
Therefore thus he says [the] Lord Yahweh because have become all of you dross therefore here I [am] about to gather you into [the] middle of Jerusalem.
20 Kama kukusanya fedha na shaba, chuma, risasi na chuma kati ya tanuu ili kuvifukutia moto na kuviyeyusha juu yake, nitawayeyusha. Hivyo nitawakusanya katika hasira yangu na ghadhabu. Nitawaweka hapo na kufukutisha moto juu yake ili kuiyeyusha; hivyo nitawakusanya katika hasira yangu na ghadhabu yangu, na nitawaweka hapo na kuwayeyusha.
[the] gathering of Silver and copper and iron and lead and tin into [the] middle of a furnace to blow on it fire to melt [it] so I will gather in anger my and in rage my and I will set down and I will melt you.
21 Basi nitawakusanya na kuwafukutia kwa moto wa hasira yangu juu yenu hivyo basi mtamwagwa kati yake.
And I will gather you and I will blow on you with [the] fire of wrath my and you will be melted in [the] midst of it.
22 Kama kuyeyusha fedha kati ya tanuu, mtayeyushwa chini kati yake, na mtajua yakwamba mimi, Yahwe, nimemwaga ghdhabu yangu juu yenu!”'
Like [the] melting of silver in [the] midst of a furnace so you will be melted in [the] midst of it and you will know that I Yahweh I have poured out rage my on you.
23 Neno la Yahwe likanijia, kusema,
And it came [the] word of Yahweh to me saying.
24 “Mwanadamu, mwambie, 'Wewe ni nchi ambayo haijasafishwa. Hakuna mvua siku ya hasira!
O son of humankind say to it you [are] a land [which] not [is] cleansed it not rain its in a day of indignation.
25 Kuna njama ya manabii wake kati yake, kama simba angurumaye akirarua mawindo. Wamekula uhai na kuchukua utajiri wa thamani; wamewafanya wajane wengi ndani yake!
A conspiracy of prophets its [is] in [the] midst of it like a lion roaring tearing prey person[s] they have devoured treasure and precious thing[s] they have been taking widows its they have multiplied in [the] midst of it.
26 Makuhani wake hufanya kinyume na sheria yangu, na wamevinajisi vitu vyangu vitakatifu. Hawawezi kutofautisha kati ya vitu vitakatifu na vitu vya najisi. Wanaficha macho yao kutoka Sabato zangu hivyo basi nimetiwa unajisi kati yao.
Priests its they have done violence to law my and they have profaned holy things my between a holy thing and a profane thing not they have made a distinction and between unclean [thing] and a clean [thing] not they have made known and from sabbaths my they have hidden eyes their and I have been profaned in midst of them.
27 Wakuu wake ndani mwake wamekuwa kama mbwa mwitu wakirarua mawindo yao. Wamemwaga damu na kuharibu maisha, ili kupata faida kwa njia ya udanganyifu.
Princes its in midst its [are] like wolves tearing prey to shed blood to destroy lives so as to make unjust gain unjust gain.
28 Manabii wake wamepakwa chokaa; wanaona maono ya uongo na kutabiri uongo kwao. Wanasema “Bwana Yahwe asema hivi”' wakati Yahwe hajanena.
And prophets its they have plastered for them whitewash [they are] seeing falsehood and [they are] divining for them falsehood [they are] saying thus he says [the] Lord Yahweh and Yahweh not he had spoken.
29 Watu wa nchi wamewakandamiza kwa kutaka kwa nguvu na kuwanyang'anya kwa nguvu, na wamewatesa maskini na wahitaji, na kuwakandamiza wageni bila haki.
[the] people of The land they have oppressed oppression and they have robbed robbery and [the] poor and [the] needy they have maltreated and the sojourner they have oppressed with not justice.
30 Hivyo nimetafuta mtu kutoka kwao ambaye ataweza kujenga ukuta na ambaye atakayeweza kusimama mbele yangu katika uvunjaji wake kwa ajili ya nchi basi sitaweza kuiharibu, lakini sikuona mtu.
And I sought from them a person [who will] build a wall and [who will] stand in the breach before me for the land to not to destroy it and not I found [anyone].
31 Hivyo nitaimwaga ghadhabu yangu juu yao. Nitawamaliza kwa moto wa ghadhabu yangu na kuweka njia yao juu ya vichwa vyao wenyewe-hivi ndivyo Bwana Yahwe asemavyo.”'
And I have poured out on them indignation my with [the] fire of wrath my I have made an end of them conduct their on own head their I have requited [the] utterance of [the] Lord Yahweh.
