Ezekieli 36
1 “Na wewe, mwanadamu, itabirie milima ya Israeli na useme, 'Milima ya Israeli, lisikilizeni neno la Yahwe.
And you O son of humankind prophesy to [the] mountains of Israel and you will say O mountains of Israel hear [the] word of Yahweh.
2 Bwana Yahwe asema hivi: Adui amesema kuhusu ninyi, “Aha!” na “Mahala pa juu pa zamani pamekuwa milki yetu.”'
Thus he says [the] Lord Yahweh because he has said the enemy on you aha! and [the] high places of antiquity a possession it has become of us.
3 Kwa hiyo tabiri na sema, 'Bwana Yahwe asema hivi: Kwa sababu ya ukiwa wenu na kwa sababu mashambulizi yaliyokuja juu yenu kutoka pande zote, mmekuwa milki ya mataifa mengine; mmeambiwa kwa midomo yao waongeao, na kwa masingizio ya watu.
Therefore prophesy and you will say thus he says [the] Lord Yahweh because by cause to desolate and to crush you from round about to be you a possession of [the] rest of the nations and you have been taken up on a lip of a tongue and [the] whispering of [the] people.
4 Kwa hiyo, milima ya Israeli, sikilizeni neno la Bwana Yahwe: Bwana Yahwe asema hivi kwa milima na vilima, mifereji ya maji na mabonde, mahali palipoharibika kuwa ukiwa na miji iliyoachwa ambayo imetekwa nyara na kutokuwa huru kwa kutaniwa na mataifa yaliyowazunguka-
Therefore O mountains of Israel hear [the] word of [the] Lord Yahweh thus he says [the] Lord Yahweh to the mountains and to the hills to the ravines and to the valleys and to the waste places desolate and to the cities forsaken which they have become spoil and mockery to [the] rest of the nations which [are] from round about.
5 kwa hiyo Bwana Yahwe asema hivi: Hakika nimeongea katika moto wa hasira yangu juu ya mataifa meningine, juu ya Edemu na wote waliochukua nchi yangu kwa ajili yao wenyewe kama milki, dhidi ya wale walikuwa na furaha yote katika mioyo yao na dharau katika roho zao, kama walivyoitwaa nchi yangu kwamba wangeweza kudai nchi za malisho kwa ajili yao.
Therefore thus he says [the] Lord Yahweh if not in [the] fire of jealousy my I have spoken on [the] rest of the nations and on Edom all of it which they made land my - for themselves into a possession with joy of every heart with scorn of self so that pastureland its [becomes] spoil.
6 Kwa hiyo, tabiri kwa nchi ya Israeli na sema kwa milima na vilima, hata kwenye mifereji na mabonde, Bwana Yahwe asema hivi: Tazama! Katika ghadhabu yangu na hasira yangu nasema hivi kwa sababu mmechukua fedheha za mataifa.
Therefore prophesy on [the] land of Israel and you will say to the mountains and to the hills to the ravines and to the valleys thus he says - [the] Lord Yahweh here I in jealousy my and in rage my I have spoken because [the] insult[s] of nations you have borne.
7 Kwa hiyo, Bwana Yahwe asema hivi: Mimi mwenyewe nitainua mkono wangu kuapa kwamba mataifa yanayowazunguka yamkini yatawabebea aibu yao wenyewe.
Therefore thus he says [the] Lord Yahweh I I lift up hand my if not the nations which to you [are] from round about they insult[s] their they will bear.
8 Lakini ninyi, milima ya Israeli, mtachipuza matawi na kuzaa matunda kwa ajili ya watu wangu Israeli, kwa kuwa watarudi kwenu.
And you O mountains of Israel branch[es] your you will extend and fruit your you will bear for people my Israel for they have brought near to come.
9 Maana tazama, nipo kwa ajili yenu, na kuwachukulia kwa fadhili; mtalimwa na kupandwa mbegu.
For here I [am] with you and I will turn to you and you will be tilled and you will be sown.
10 Hivyo nitawaongeza juu ya milima yenu watu katika nyumba ya Israeli, yote. Miji itakaa na palipoharibiwa kujengwa.
And I will multiply on you human[s] all [the] house of Israel all of it and they will be inhabited the cities and the waste places they will be rebuilt.
11 Nitaongeza mtu na wanyama juu yenu milima ili kwamba itaongezeka na kuzaa. Kisha nitawafanya kuishi kama mlivyokuwa, na nitawafanya kustawi zaidi kuliko mlivyokuwa zamani, kwa kuwa mtajua yakwamba mimi ni Yahwe.
And I will multiply on you human[s] and animal[s] and they will increase and they will be fruitful and I will cause to dwell you like former state your and I will do good more than beginnings your and you will know that I [am] Yahweh.
12 Nitawaleta watu, watu wangu Israeli, kutembea juu yenu. Watakumiliki, na utakuwa urithi wao, na hutasababisha tena watoto wao kufa.
And I will cause to walk on you human[s] people my Israel and they will dispossess you and you will become of them an inheritance and not you will repeat again to bereave them.
13 Bwana Yahwe asema hivi: Kwa sababu wanakwambia, “Wewe unakula watu, na watoto wa nchi yako wamekufa,”
Thus he says [the] Lord Yahweh because [people are] saying to you [are] devouring human[s] (you *Q(K)*) and bereaving (nations your *Q(K)*) you have been.
14 kwa hiyo hautawala watu wangu tena, na hutalifanya tena taifa lako kuomboleza vifo vyao. Hivi ndivyo Bwana Yahwe asemavyo.
Therefore human[s] not you will devour again (and nations your *Q(K)*) not (you will bereave *Q(K)*) again [the] utterance of [the] Lord Yahweh.
15 Wala sintokuruhusu kusikiliza fedhiha za mataifa tena; hautachukua tena aibu ya watu au kufanya taifa lako kuanguka-hivi ndivyo Bwana Yahwe asemavyo.”'
And not I will make heard to you again [the] insult[s] of the nations and [the] reproach of peoples not you will bear again (and nations your *Q(K)*) not you will cause to stumble again [the] utterance of [the] Lord Yahweh.
16 Kisha neno la Yahwe likanijia, kusema,
And it came [the] word of Yahweh to me saying.
17 “Mwanadamu, wakati nyumba ya Israeli walipoikalia nchi yao, waliinajisi kwa njia zao na matendo yao. Njia zao zilikuwa kama uchafu wa hedhi ya mwanamke mbele yangu.
O son of humankind [the] house of Israel [were] dwelling on own land their and they made unclean it by conduct their and by practices their like [the] uncleanness of menstruation it was conduct their before me.
18 Hivyo nilimwaga ghadhabu yangu juu yao kwa ajili ya damu ambayo waliyoimwaga juu ya nchi na kwa ajili ya uchafu wa hiyo kwa sanamu zao.
And I poured out rage my on them on the blood which they had poured out on the land and by idols their they made unclean it.
19 Nimewatawanya miongoni mwa mataifa; walitawanyika katika nchi nyingi. Nimewahukumu kulingana na njia zao na matendo yao.
And I scattered them among the nations and they were dispersed among the lands according to conduct their and according to practices their I judged them.
20 Kisha wakaenda kati ya mataifa, na popote walipoenda, walilitukana jina langu takatifu wakati watu waliwasema, 'Je! hawa kweli ni watu wa Yahwe? Kwa kuwa wamefukuzwa nje ya nchi yake.
And it came to the nations where they went there and they profaned [the] name of holiness my when said of them [are] [the] people of Yahweh these and from land his they have come out.
21 Lakini nilikuwa na huruma kwa ajili ya jina langu takatifu ambalo nyumba ya Israeli walilinajisi miongoni mwa mataifa, walipoenda huko.
And I showed pity on [the] name of holiness my which they had profaned it [the] house of Israel among the nations where they had gone there towards.
22 Kwa hiyo waambie nyumba ya Israeli, 'Bwana Yahwe asema hivi: Sifanyi haya kwa ajili yenu, nyumba ya Israeli, lakini jina langu, mlilolitukana miongoni mwa mataifa kila sehemu mlipoenda.
Therefore say to [the] house of Israel thus he says [the] Lord Yahweh not for sake your I [am] about to act O house of Israel that except for [the] name of holiness my which you have profaned among the nations where you have gone there.
23 Kwa kuwa nitalifanya jina langu kuu kuwa takatifu, mlilolitukana miongoni mwa mataifa-katikati ya mataifa, mmelitukana. Kisha mataifa watajua kwamba mimi ni Yahwe-hivi ndivyo asemavyo Bwana Yahwe-asemavyo-wakati mtakapoona kwamba mimi ni mtakatifu.
And I will show holy name my great that has been] profaned among the nations which you have profaned in midst of them and they will know the nations that I [am] Yahweh [the] utterance of [the] Lord Yahweh when I show holy myself by you to eyes their.
24 Nitawachukua kutoka mataifa na kuwakusanya kutoka kila nchi, na nitawaleta hata nchi yenu.
And I will take you from the nations and I will gather you from all the lands and I will bring you into own land your.
25 Kisha nitanyunyiza maji masafi juu yenu ili muwe wasafi kutoka kwenye uchafu wote, na nitawasafisha kutoka sanamu zenu zenu.
And I will sprinkle on you water pure and you will be pure from all uncleanness your and from all idols your I will purify you.
26 Nitawapatia moyo mpya na roho mpya sehemu zenu za ndani, na nitautoa moyo wa jiwe kutoka kwenye nyama zenu. Kwa kuwa nitawapatia moyo wa nyama.
And I will give to you a heart new and a spirit new I will put in inner being your and I will remove [the] heart of stone from flesh your and I will give to you a heart of flesh.
27 Nitaiweka Roho yangu ndani yenu na kuwawezesha kutembea katika sheria zangu na kuziweka hukumu zangu, hivyo mtazitenda.
And spirit my I will put in inner being your and I will bring about this: in statutes my you will walk and judgments my you will keep and you will do [them].
28 Kisha mtakaa katika nchi niliyowapa babu zenu; mtakuwa watu wangu, nami nitakuwa Mungu wenu.
And you will dwell in the land which I gave to ancestors your and you will become for me a people and I I will become for you God.
29 Kwa kuwa nitawaokoa kutokana na uchafu wenu wote. Nitaita ngano kuiongeza. Sitaweka tena njaa juu yenu.
And I will save you from all uncleanness your and I will summon the grain and I will increase it and not I will give to you famine.
30 Nitaongeza tunda la mti na kuzalisha kwenye mashamba ili kwamba msichukue tena aibu ya njaa juu ya mataifa.
And I will increase [the] fruit of the tree and [the] produce of the field so that that not you may receive again [the] reproach of famine among the nations.
31 Kisha mtazikumbuka njia zenu mbaya na matendo yenu ambayo hayakuwa mazuri, na mtaonyesha chuki kwenye nyuso zenu kwa sababu ya dhambi zenu na matendo yenu maovu.
And you will remember ways your evil and deeds your which not [were] good and you will loathe faces your on iniquities your and on abominations your.
32 Sifanyi hili kwa ajili yenu-hivi ndivyo Bwana Yahwe asemavyo-ijulikane kwenu. Hivyo tahayarikeni na kufadhaika kwa sababu ya njia zenu, nyumba ya Israeli.
Not for sake your I [am] about to act [the] utterance of [the] Lord Yahweh let it be known to you be ashamed and be humiliated from ways your O house of Israel.
33 Bwana Yahwe asema hivi: Katika siku niliyowatakasa kutoka kwenye uovu wenu wote, nitawafanya miji ikaliwe na kuzijenga sehemu zilizoharibiwa.
Thus he says [the] Lord Yahweh on [the] day cleanse I you from all iniquities your and I will cause to be inhabited the cities and they will be rebuilt the waste places.
34 Kwa kuwa mtailima nchi iliyoharibiwa hadi itakapoonekana haijaaharibika mbele za macho ya wote wapitao karibu.
And the land desolated it will be tilled in place of that it was a desolation to [the] eyes of every [one who] passes by.
35 Kisha watasema, “Hii nchi ilikuwa ukiwa, lakini imekuwa kama bustani ya Edeni; miji ya ukiwa na isiyo na wakaaji iliyo magofu ambayo ilibomolewa sasa inakaliwa.
And people will say the land this desolated it has become like [the] garden of Eden and the cities wasted and desolated and broken down [are] fortified they have remained.
36 Kisha mataifa mengine waliowazunguka watajua yakwamba mimi ni Yahwe, kwamba nimejenga palipokuwa pameharibiwa na kuipanda mbegu sehemu iliyokuwa ukiwa.
And they will know the nations which they will be left around you that - I Yahweh I have rebuilt the broken down [cities] I have planted the desolated [places] I Yahweh I have spoken and I will act.
37 Bwana Yahwe asema hivi: Tena nitaulizwa na nyumba ya Israeli kufanya hivi kwa ajili yao, kuwaongeza kama kundi la watu.
Thus he says [the] Lord Yahweh again this I will let myself be sought by [the] house of Israel to act for them I will increase them like flock human[s].
38 Kama kundi lililotengwa kwa ajili ya sadaka, kama kundi katika Yerusalimu katika sikukuu yake iliyoteuliwa, hivyo miji itaharibiwa kwa kujazwa na makundi ya watu na watajua kwamba mimi ni Yahwe.”'
Like sheep of holiness like [the] sheep of Jerusalem at appointed times its so they will be the cities wasted full of flock[s] of human[s] and they will know that I [am] Yahweh.
