Ezekiel 35
1 Bukod dito'y ang salita ng Panginoon ay dumating sa akin, na nagsasabi,
Yahweh gave me another message. He said,
2 Anak ng tao, ititig mo ang iyong mukha sa bundok ng Seir, at manghula ka laban doon,
“You human, turn toward Edom and prophesy what will happen to its people. Say that this is what Yahweh says to them:
3 At sabihin mo roon, Ganito ang sabi ng Panginoong Dios: Narito, ako'y laban sa iyo, Oh bundok ng Seir, at aking iniunat ang aking kamay laban sa iyo, at gagawin kitang sira at katigilan.
‘You who live near Seir Mountain [in Edom], I am opposed to you, and I will use my power [MTY] to strike you and cause your country to become a wasteland.
4 Aking ilalagay na giba ang iyong mga bayan, at ikaw ay magiging sira; at iyong malalaman na ako ang Panginoon.
I will cause your country to be ruined and desolate. When that happens, people will know that I, Yahweh, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].
5 Sapagka't ikaw ay nagkaroon ng laging pakikipagkaalit, at ibinigay mo ang mga anak ni Israel sa kapangyarihan ng tabak sa kapanahunan ng kanilang kasakunaan, sa kapanahunan ng parusang pinaka wakas;
You have always been enemies of the Israeli people. You [rejoiced] when they experienced a great disaster: [their enemies attacked them with] swords, when I punished them [for the sins that they had committed].
6 Kaya't buhay ako, sabi ng Panginoong Dios, aking itatalaga ka sa dugo, at ang dugo ay hahabol sa iyo: yamang hindi mo kinapootan ang dugo, kaya't matatalaga ka sa dugo.
Therefore, I, Yahweh the Lord, declare that as surely as I am alive, I will allow [your enemies] to slaughter [MTY] you and continue to slaughter you. You were happy when [LIT] others were slaughtered;
7 Ganito ko gagawin ang bundok ng Seir na isang katigilan at kasiraan; at aking ihihiwalay sa kaniya siya na nagdaraan at siyang nagbabalik.
so I will cause Seir Mountain to be abandoned/deserted, and I will get rid of anyone who enters it or leaves it.
8 At aking pupunuin ang kaniyang mga bundok ng kaniyang mga nangapatay: sa iyong mga burol at sa iyong mga libis at sa lahat mong mga daan ng tubig ay mangabubuwal sila na nangapatay ng tabak.
I will cause your mountains to be filled with [the corpses of] those who have been killed. The corpses of those who have been killed by [your enemies’] swords will lie on your hills and in your valleys and in all your ravines.
9 Ikaw ay gagawin kong pangpalaging kasiraan, at ang iyong mga bayan ay hindi tatahanan; at inyong malalaman na ako ang Panginoon.
I will cause your land to be deserted forever. No one will live in your towns again. When that happens, you will know that I, Yahweh, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].
10 Sapagka't iyong sinabi, Ang dalawang bansang ito, at ang dalawang lupaing ito ay magiging akin, at aming aariin; bagaman kinaroroonan ng Panginoon:
You people said, “Israel and Judah will become ours. We will take over their territory!” You said that even though I, Yahweh, was still there [and protecting them].
11 Kaya't buhay ako, sabi ng Panginoong Dios, aking gagawin ayon sa iyong galit, at ayon sa iyong pananaghili na iyong ipinakilala sa iyong pagtatanim laban sa kanila: at ako'y pakikilala sa gitna nila pagka aking hahatulan ka.
Therefore, I, Yahweh the Lord, declare that as surely as I am alive, I will punish [MTY] you for being angry with my people, envying them, and hating them.
12 At iyong malalaman na akong Panginoon ay nakarinig ng lahat mong panunungayaw na iyong sinalita laban sa mga bundok ng Israel, na sinasabi, Nangalagay na sira ang mga yaon, nangabigay sa atin upang lamunin.
Then you will know that I, Yahweh, have heard all the disgusting things that you have said about the mountains in Israel. You said that they have been ruined/devastated, and that they have been given to you to occupy [MET].
13 At kayo'y nangagmalaki laban sa akin ng inyong bibig, at inyong pinarami ang inyong mga salita laban sa akin: aking narinig yaon.
When you insulted me, I heard all that you said about me.
14 Ganito ang sabi ng Panginoong Dios: Pagka ang buong lupa ay nagagalak, akin gagawin kang sira.
So this is what I, Yahweh the Lord, say: You people who live on Seir Mountain and in all the other places in Edom, when I cause your land to become desolate, everyone in the entire world will rejoice.
15 Kung paanong ikaw ay nagalak sa mana ng sangbahayan ni Israel, dahil sa sira, gayon ang gagawin ko sa iyo: ikaw ay magiging sira, Oh bundok ng Seir, at buong Edom, oo, lahat ng ito; at kanilang malalaman na ako ang Panginoon.
You were happy when the land [MTY] of the Israeli people became desolate, so I will cause your land to become desolate. When that happens, people will know that I, Yahweh, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].’”
