Ezekiel 33

1 At ang salita ng Panginoon ay dumating sa akin, na nagsasabi,

Again the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,

2 Anak ng tao, salitain mo sa mga anak ng iyong bayan, at sabihin mo sa kanila, Pagka aking dinala ang tabak sa lupain, kung ang bayan ng lupain ay kumuha ng isang lalake sa gitna nila, at ilagay na pinakabantay nila;

Son of man, speak to the children of your people, and say unto them, When I bring the sword upon a land, if the people of the land take a man of their coasts, and set him for their watchman:

3 Kung, pagkakita niya ng tabak na dumarating sa lupain, kaniyang hipan ang pakakak, at magbigay alam sa bayan;

If when he sees the sword come upon the land, he blow the trumpet, and warn the people;

4 Sinoman ngang makarinig ng tunog ng pakakak, at hindi pinansin kung ang tabak ay dumating at dalhin siya, ang kaniyang dugo ay mapapasa kaniyang sariling ulo.

Then whosoever hears the sound of the trumpet, and takes not warning; if the sword come, and take him away, his blood shall be upon his own head.

5 Narinig niya ang tunog ng pakakak, at hindi pinansin; ang kaniyang dugo ay sasa kaniya; sapagka't kung siya'y pumansin ay kaniyang nailigtas sana ang kaniyang buhay.

He heard the sound of the trumpet, and took not warning; his blood shall be upon him. But he that takes warning shall deliver his soul.

6 Nguni't kung makita ng bantay na dumarating ang tabak, at hindi humihip ng pakakak, at ang bayan ay hindi napagbigyang alam, at ang tabak ay dumating, at maghiwalay ng sinoman mula sa gitna nila; siya'y nahiwalay sa kaniyang kasamaan, nguni't ang kaniyang dugo ay sisiyasatin ko sa kamay ng bantay.

But if the watchman see the sword come, and blow not the trumpet, and the people be not warned; if the sword come, and take any person from among them, he is taken away in his iniquity; but his blood will I require at the watchman's hand.

7 Sa gayo'y ikaw, anak ng tao, ay inilagay ko na bantay sa sangbahayan ni Israel; kaya't dinggin mo ang salita sa aking bibig, at magbigay alam ka sa kanila sa ganang akin.

So you, O son of man, I have set you a watchman unto the house of Israel; therefore you shall hear the word at my mouth, and warn them from me.

8 Pagka aking sinabi sa masama, Oh masamang tao, ikaw ay walang pagsalang mamamatay, at ikaw ay hindi nagsasalita upang magbigay alam sa masama ng kaniyang lakad: ang masamang yaon ay mamamatay sa kaniyang kasamaan, nguni't ang kaniyang dugo ay sisiyasatin ko sa iyong kamay.

When I say unto the wicked, O wicked man, you shall surely die; if you do not speak to warn the wicked from his way, that wicked man shall die in his iniquity; but his blood will I require at your hand.

9 Gayon ma'y kung iyong bigyang alam ang masama ng kaniyang lakad upang humiwalay, at hindi niya hiniwalayan ang kaniyang lakad; mamamatay siya sa kaniyang kasamaan, nguni't iniligtas mo ang iyong kaluluwa.

Nevertheless, if you warn the wicked of his way to turn from it; if he do not turn from his way, he shall die in his iniquity; but you have delivered your soul.

10 At ikaw, anak ng tao, sabihin mo sa sangbahayan ni Israel, Ganito ang inyong sinasalita, na sinasabi, Ang aming pagsalangsang, at ang aming mga kasalanan ay nangasa amin, at aming pinanglulupaypayan; paano ngang kami ay mangabubuhay?

Therefore, O you son of man, speak unto the house of Israel; Thus all of you speak, saying, If our transgressions and our sins be upon us, and we pine away in them, how should we then live?

11 Sabihin mo sa kanila, Buhay ako, sabi ng Panginoong Dios, wala akong kasayahan sa kamatayan ng masama; kundi ang masama ay humiwalay sa kaniyang lakad at mabuhay: manumbalik kayo, manumbalik kayo na mula sa inyong masasamang lakad; sapagka't bakit kayo mangamamatay, Oh sangbahayan ni Israel?

Say unto them, As I live, says the Lord GOD, I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked; but that the wicked turn from his way and live: turn all of you, turn all of you from your evil ways; for why will all of you die, O house of Israel?

12 At ikaw, anak ng tao, sabihin mo sa mga anak ng iyong bayan, Ang katuwiran ng matuwid ay hindi makapagliligtas sa kaniya sa kaarawan ng kaniyang pagsalangsang; at tungkol sa kasamaan ng masama, hindi niya kabubuwalan sa araw na kaniyang hiwalayan ang kaniyang kasamaan; ni ikabubuhay man ng matuwid ang kaniyang katuwiran sa araw na siya'y magkasala.

Therefore, you son of man, say unto the children of your people, The righteousness of the righteous shall not deliver him in the day of his transgression: as for the wickedness of the wicked, he shall not fall thereby in the day that he turns from his wickedness; neither shall the righteous be able to live for his righteousness in the day that he sins.

13 Pagka aking sasabihin sa matuwid na siya'y walang pagsalang mabubuhay; kung siya'y tumiwala sa kaniyang katuwiran, at gumawa ng kasamaan, anoman sa kaniyang mga matuwid na gawa ay hindi aalalahanin; kundi sa kaniyang kasamaan na kaniyang nagawa doon siya mamamatay.

When I shall say to the righteous, that he shall surely live; if he trust to his own righteousness, and commit iniquity, all his righteousnesses shall not be remembered; but for his iniquity that he has committed, he shall die for it.

14 Muli, pagka aking sinabi sa masama, Ikaw ay walang pagsalang mamamatay; kung kaniyang iwan ang kaniyang kasalanan, at gawin ang tapat at matuwid;

Again, when I say unto the wicked, You shall surely die; if he turn from his sin, and do that which is lawful and right;

15 Kung isauli ng masama ang sanla, ibigay uli ang kinuha sa pagnanakaw, lumakad sa palatuntunan ng buhay, na di gumawa ng kasamaan, siya'y walang pagsalang mabubuhay, siya'y hindi mamamatay.

If the wicked restore the pledge, give again that he had robbed, walk in the statutes of life, without committing iniquity; he shall surely live, he shall not die.

16 Wala sa kaniyang mga kasalanan na kaniyang nagawa na aalalahanin laban sa kaniya; kaniyang ginawa ang tapat at matuwid; siya'y walang pagsalang mabubuhay.

None of his sins that he has committed shall be mentioned unto him: he has done that which is lawful and right; he shall surely live.

17 Gayon ma'y sinabi ng mga anak ng iyong bayan, Ang daan ng Panginoon ay hindi matuwid: nguni't tungkol sa kanila, ay hindi matuwid ang kanilang lakad.

Yet the children of your people say, The way of the Lord is not equal: but as for them, their way is not equal.

18 Pagka iniwan ng matuwid ang kaniyang katuwiran, at gumagawa ng kasamaan, kaniyang ikamamatay yaon.

When the righteous turns from his righteousness, and commits iniquity, he shall even die thereby.

19 At kung hiwalayan ng masama ang kaniyang kasamaan, at gumawa ng tapat at matuwid, kaniyang ikabubuhay yaon.

But if the wicked turn from his wickedness, and do that which is lawful and right, he shall live thereby.

20 Gayon ma'y inyong sinasabi, Ang daan ng Panginoon ay hindi matuwid. Oh sangbahayan ni Israel, aking hahatulan kayo bawa't isa, ayon sa kaniyang mga lakad.

Yet all of you say, The way of the Lord is not equal. O all of you house of Israel, I will judge you every one after his ways.

21 At nangyari, nang ikalabing dalawang taon ng ating pagkabihag, nang ikasangpung buwan; nang ikalimang araw ng buwan, na isa na nakatanan mula sa Jerusalem ay naparoon sa akin, na nagsasabi, Ang bayan ay nasaktan.

And it came to pass in the twelfth year of our captivity, in the tenth month, in the fifth day of the month, that one that had escaped out of Jerusalem came unto me, saying, The city is smitten.

22 Ang kamay nga ng Panginoon ay sumaakin nang kinahapunan, bago dumating ang nakatanan; at ibinuka niya ang aking bibig, hanggang sa siya'y dumating sa akin nang kinaumagahan; at ang aking bibig ay nabuka at hindi na ako pipi.

Now the hand of the LORD was upon me in the evening, before he that was escaped came; and had opened my mouth, until he came to me in the morning; and my mouth was opened, and I was no more dumb.

23 At ang salita ng Panginoon ay dumating sa akin, na nagsasabi,

Then the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,

24 Anak ng tao, ang nagsisitahan sa mga gibang dakong yaon ng lupain ng Israel, ay nangagsasalita, na sinasabi, Si Abraham ay iisa, at kaniyang minana ang lupain: nguni't tayo'y marami; ang lupain ay ibinigay sa ating pinakamana.

Son of man, they that inhabit those wastes of the land of Israel speak, saying, Abraham was one, and he inherited the land: but we are many; the land is given us for inheritance.

25 Kaya't sabihin mo sa kanila, Ganito ang sabi ng Panginoong Dios: Kayo'y nagsisikain ng may dugo, at itinataas ninyo ang inyong mga mata sa inyong mga diosdiosan, at nagbububo ng dugo: at inyo bagang aariin ang lupain?

Wherefore say unto them, Thus says the Lord GOD; All of you eat with the blood, and lift up your eyes toward your idols, and shed blood: and shall all of you possess the land?

26 Kayo'y nagsisitayo sa inyong tabak, kayo'y nagsisigawa ng kasuklamsuklam, at nanirang puri bawa't isa sa inyo ng asawa ng kaniyang kapuwa: at inyo bagang aariin ang lupain?

All of you stand upon your sword, all of you work abomination, and all of you defile every one his neighbour's wife: and shall all of you possess the land?

27 Sabihin mong ganito sa kanila, Ganito ang sabi ng Panginoong Dios: Buhay ako, walang pagsalang silang nangasa mga ibang dako ay mangabubuwal sa pamamagitan ng tabak, at siyang nasa luwal na parang ay ibibigay ko sa mga hayop upang lamunin, at silang nangasa mga katibayan at sa mga yungib ay mangamamatay sa salot.

Say you thus unto them, Thus says the Lord GOD; As I live, surely they that are in the wastes shall fall by the sword, and him that is in the open field will I give to the beasts to be devoured, and they that be in the forts and in the caves shall die of the pestilence.

28 At aking gagawing sira ang lupain at katigilan; at ang kahambugan ng kaniyang lakas ay maglilikat; at ang mga bundok ng Israel ay mangasisira, na walang dadaan.

For I will lay the land most desolate, and the pomp of her strength shall cease; and the mountains of Israel shall be desolate, that none shall pass through.

29 Kung magkagayo'y malalaman nila na ako ang Panginoon, pagka aking ginawang sira at katigilan ang lupain, dahil sa lahat nilang kasuklamsuklam na kanilang nagawa.

Then shall they know that I am the LORD, when I have laid the land most desolate because of all their abominations which they have committed.

30 At tungkol sa iyo, anak ng tao, pinagsasalitaanan ka pa ng mga anak ng iyong bayan sa siping ng mga pader at sa mga pintuan ng mga bahay, at nangagsasalitaan na bawa't isa'y sa kaniyang kapatid, na sinasabi, Pumarito ka, isinasamo ko sa iyo, at dinggin mo kung ano ang salita na nanggagaling sa Panginoon.

Also, you son of man, the children of your people still are talking against you by the walls and in the doors of the houses, and speak one to another, every one to his brother, saying, Come, I pray you, and hear what is the word that comes forth from the LORD.

31 At dumating sa iyo na wari ang bayan ay dumarating, at sila'y nagsisiupo sa harap mo na gaya ng aking bayan, at kanilang dinidinig ang iyong mga salita, nguni't hindi nila ginagawa; sapagka't sila'y nangagsasalita ng malaking pagibig ng kanilang bibig, nguni't ang kanilang puso ay nasa kanilang pakinabang.

And they come unto you as the people comes, and they sit before you as my people, and they hear your words, but they will not do them: for with their mouth they show much love, but their heart goes after their covetousness.

32 At, narito, ikaw ay parang masayang awit sa kanila na may maligayang tinig, at nakatutugtog na mabuti sa panugtog; sapagka't kanilang naririnig ang iyong mga salita, nguni't hindi nila ginagawa.

And, lo, you are unto them as a very lovely song of one that has a pleasant voice, and can play well on an instrument: for they hear your words, but they do them not.

33 At pagka ito'y nangyari, (narito, nangyayari, ) kanila ngang malalaman na isang propeta ay napasa gitna nila.

And when this comes to pass, (lo, it will come, ) then shall they know that a prophet has been among them.
