Ezekiel 3

1 At sinabi niya sa akin, Anak ng tao, kanin mo ang iyong nasusumpungan; kanin mo ang balumbong ito, at ikaw ay yumaon, magsalita ka sa sangbahayan ni Israel.

And he said to me, Son of man, take this roll for your food, and go and say my words to the children of Israel.

2 Sa gayo'y ibinuka ko ang aking bibig, at ipinakain niya sa akin ang balumbon.

And, on my opening my mouth, he made me take the roll as food.

3 At sinabi niya sa akin, Anak ng tao, pakanin mo ang iyong tiyan, at busugin mo ang iyong bituka ng balumbong ito na aking ibinibigay sa iyo. Nang magkagayo'y kinain ko, at sa aking bibig ay naging parang pulot sa katamisan.

And he said to me, Son of man, let your stomach make a meal of it and let your inside be full of this roll which I am giving you. Then I took it, and it was sweet as honey in my mouth.

4 At sinabi niya sa akin, Anak ng tao, yumaon ka, paroon ka sa sangbahayan ni Israel, at magsalita ka ng aking mga salita sa kanila.

And he said to me, Son of man, go now to the children of Israel, and say my words to them.

5 Sapagka't ikaw ay hindi sinugo sa isang bayan na may ibang wika at may mahirap na salita, kundi sa sangbahayan ni Israel;

For you are not sent to a people whose talk is strange and whose language is hard, but to the children of Israel;

6 Hindi sa maraming bayan na may ibang wika at may mahirap na salita, na ang mga salita ay hindi mo nauunawa. Tunay na kung suguin kita sa mga yaon, didinggin ka ng mga yaon.

Not to a number of peoples whose talk is strange and whose language is hard and whose words are not clear to you. Truly, if I sent you to them they would give ear to you.

7 Nguni't hindi ka didinggin ng sangbahayan ni Israel; sapagka't hindi nila ako didinggin: sapagka't ang buong sangbahayan ni Israel ay may matigas na ulo, at may mapagmatigas na loob.

But the children of Israel will not give ear to you; for they have no mind to give ear to me: for all the children of Israel have a hard brow and a stiff heart.

8 Narito, aking pinapagmatigas ang iyong mukha laban sa kanilang mga mukha, at pinatigas ko ang iyong ulo laban sa kanilang mga ulo.

See, I have made your face hard against their faces, and your brow hard against their brows.

9 Ginawa kong parang isang diamante na lalong matigas kay sa pingkiang bato ang iyong ulo: huwag mo silang katakutan, o manglupaypay man sa kanilang tingin, bagaman sila'y mapanghimagsik na sangbahayan.

Like a diamond harder than rock I have made your brow: have no fear of them and do not be overcome by their looks, for they are an uncontrolled people.

10 Bukod dito'y sinabi niya sa akin, Anak ng tao, lahat ng aking mga salita na aking sasalitain sa iyo ay tanggapin mo sa iyong puso, at dinggin mo ng iyong mga pakinig.

Then he said to me, Son of man, take into your heart all my words which I am about to say to you, and let your ears be open to them.

11 At yumaon ka, pumaroon ka sa mga bihag, na mga anak ng iyong bayan at magsalita ka sa kanila, at saysayin mo sa kanila, Ganito ang sabi ng Panginoong Dios; sa didinggin man nila, o sa itatakuwil man nila.

And go now to those who have been taken away as prisoners, to the children of your people, and say to them, This is what the Lord has said; if they give ear or if they do not.

12 Nang magkagayo'y itinaas ako ng Espiritu, at aking narinig sa likuran ko ang tinig ng malaking hugong, na nagsasabi; Purihin ang kaluwalhatian ng Panginoon mula sa kaniyang dako.

Then I was lifted up by the wind, and at my back the sound of a great rushing came to my ears when the glory of the Lord was lifted up from his place.

13 At aking narinig ang pagaspas ng mga pakpak ng mga nilalang na may buhay na nagkakadagisdisan, at ang hugong ng mga gulong sa siping nila, sa makatuwid baga'y ang ingay ng malaking hugong.

And there was the sound of the wings of the living beings touching one another, and the sound of the wheels at their side, the sound of a great rushing.

14 Sa gayo'y itinaas ako ng Espiritu, at ako'y dinala; at ako'y yumaong namamanglaw, sa pagiinit ng aking kalooban; at ang kamay ng Panginoon ay naging malakas sa akin.

And the wind, lifting me up, took me away: and I went in the heat of my spirit, and the hand of the Lord was strong on me.

15 Nang magkagayo'y naparoon ako sa mga bihag sa Tel-abib, na nagsisitahan sa pangpang ng ilog Chebar, at sa kanikanilang kinatatahanan; at ako'y umupo roong natitigilan sa gitna nila na pitong araw.

Then I came to those who had been taken away as prisoners, who were at Telabib by the river Chebar, and I was seated among them full of wonder for seven days.

16 At nangyari, sa katapusan ng pitong araw, na ang salita ng Panginoon ay dumating sa akin, na nagsasabi,

And at the end of seven days, the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

17 Anak ng tao, ginawa kitang bantay sa sangbahayan ni Israel: kaya't pakinggan mo ang salita sa aking bibig, at ipanguna mo sa kanila sa ganang akin.

Son of man, I have made you a watchman for the children of Israel: so give ear to the word of my mouth, and give them word from me of their danger.

18 Pagka aking sinabi sa masama, Ikaw ay walang pagsalang mamamatay; at hindi mo pinagpaunahan siya, o nagsasalita ka man upang hikayatin ang masama mula sa kaniyang masamang lakad, upang iligtas ang kaniyang buhay; ang gayong masamang tao ay mamamatay sa kaniyang kasamaan; nguni't ang kaniyang dugo ay aking sisiyasatin sa iyong kamay.

When I say to the evil-doer, Death will certainly be your fate; and you give him no word of it and say nothing to make clear to the evil-doer the danger of his evil way, so that he may be safe; that same evil man will come to death in his evil-doing; but I will make you responsible for his blood.

19 Gayon ma'y kung iyong pagpaunahan ang masama, at siya'y hindi humiwalay sa kaniyang kasamaan, o sa kaniyang masamang lakad man, siya'y mamamatay sa kaniyang kasamaan; nguni't iyong iniligtas ang iyong kaluluwa.

But if you give the evil-doer word of his danger, and he is not turned from his sin or from his evil way, death will overtake him in his evil-doing; but your life will be safe.

20 Muli, pagka ang isang taong matuwid ay lumilihis sa kaniyang katuwiran, at gumawa ng kasamaan, at ako'y naglalagay ng katitisuran sa harap niya, siya'y mamamatay; sapagka't hindi mo siya pinagpaunahan, siya'y mamamatay sa kaniyang kasalanan, at ang kaniyang mga matuwid na gawa na kaniyang ginawa ay hindi aalalahanin; nguni't ang kaniyang dugo ay aking sisiyasatin sa iyong kamay.

Again, when an upright man, turning away from his righteousness, does evil, and I put a cause of falling in his way, death will overtake him: because you have given him no word of his danger, death will overtake him in his evil-doing, and there will be no memory of the upright acts which he has done; but I will make you responsible for his blood.

21 Gayon ma'y kung iyong pinagpaunahan ang taong matuwid, upang ang matuwid ay huwag magkasala, at siya'y hindi nagkakasala, siya'y walang pagsalang mabubuhay, sapagka't siya'y nahikayat; at iyong iniligtas ang iyong kaluluwa.

But if you say to the upright man that he is not to do evil, he will certainly keep his life because he took note of your word; and your life will be safe.

22 At ang kamay ng Panginoon ay sumasa akin, at sinabi niya sa akin, Bumangon ka, lumabas ka sa kapatagan at doo'y makikipagusap ako sa iyo.

And the hand of the Lord was on me there; and he said, Get up and go out into the valley and there I will have talk with you.

23 Nang magkagayo'y bumangon ako, at ako'y lumabas sa kapatagan; at, narito, ang kaluwalhatian ng Panginoon ay dumoon, na gaya ng kaluwalhatian na aking nakita sa pangpang ng ilog Chebar; at ako'y napasubasob.

Then I got up and went out into the valley; and I saw the glory of the Lord resting there as I had seen it by the river Chebar; and I went down on my face.

24 Nang magkagayo'y suma akin ang Espiritu, at itinayo ako sa aking mga paa; at siya'y nakipagsalitaan sa akin, at nagsabi sa akin, Yumaon ka, magsara ka sa loob ng iyong bahay.

Then the spirit came into me and put me on my feet; and he had talk with me and said to me, Go and keep yourself shut up inside your house.

25 Nguni't ikaw, anak ng tao, narito, sila'y mangaglalagay ng mga lubid sa iyo, at itatali sa iyo, at ikaw ay hindi lalabas sa gitna nila.

But see, O son of man, I will put bands on you, prisoning you in them, and you will not go out among them:

26 At aking paninikitin ang iyong dila sa ngalangala ng iyong bibig, upang ikaw ay mapipi, at huwag maging mananaway sa kanila: sapagka't sila'y mapanghimagsik na sangbahayan.

And I will make your tongue fixed to the roof of your mouth, so that you have no voice and may not make protests to them: for they are an uncontrolled people.

27 Nguni't pag ako'y makikipagsalitaan sa iyo, aking ibubuka ang iyong bibig, at iyong sasabihin sa kanila, Ganito ang sabi ng Panginoong Dios; Siyang nakikinig ay makinig; at ang nagtatakuwil ay magtakuwil: sapagka't sila'y mapanghimagsik na sangbahayan.

But when I have talk with you I will make your mouth open, and you are to say to them, This is what the Lord has said: Let the hearer give ear; and as for him who will not, let him keep his ears shut: for they are an uncontrolled people.
