< Ezekiel 11 >

1 Ẹ̀mí sì gbé mi sókè, ó mú mi lọ sí ẹnu-ọ̀nà ilé Olúwa èyí tó dojúkọ ìlà-oòrùn. Ní àbáwọlé ẹnu-ọ̀nà yìí ni àwọn ọkùnrin mẹ́ẹ̀ẹ́dọ́gbọ̀n wá, mo rí Jaaṣaniah ọmọ Assuri àti Pelatiah ọmọ Benaiah, tí wọ́n jẹ́ ìjòyè àwọn ènìyàn.
And the Spirit lifted me up, and brought me into the east gate of the house of Yahweh which looketh eastward, and lo! in the opening of the gate, twenty-five men, —and I saw in their midst Jaazaniah son of Azzur and Pelatiah son of Benaiah princes of the people.
2 Olúwa sì sọ fún mi pé, “Ọmọ ènìyàn, àwọn ọkùnrin yìí ló ń pète ibi, wọ́n sì ń gbé ìmọ̀ràn búburú kalẹ̀ nínú ìlú.
Then said he unto me, Son of man, These, are the men who are devising iniquity, and who are counselling wicked counsel in this city;
3 Wọ́n ní, ‘Kò ha tí ì tó àsìkò láti kọ́lé? Ìlú yìí ni ìkòkò ìdáná, àwa sì ni ẹran’.
who are saying, Not near! let us build houses, — It, is the caldron, and, we, are the flesh!
4 Nítorí náà sọtẹ́lẹ̀ nípa wọn; ọmọ ènìyàn, sọtẹ́lẹ̀.”
Therefore, prophesy against them, —prophesy. Son of man.
5 Ẹ̀mí Olúwa sì bà lé mi, ó sì wí pé, “Sọ̀rọ̀!” Báyìí ni Olúwa wí, ohun tí ẹ ń sọ nìyìí, ilé Israẹli, mo mọ ohun tó wà lọ́kàn yín.
Then fell upon me the Spirit of Yahweh, and he said unto me Say—Thus, saith Yahweh, Thus have ye said O house of Israel, Yea, the things that come up on your spirit, I, know every one.
6 Ẹ̀yin ti sọ òkú yín di púpọ̀ nínú ìlú yìí, òkú sì ti kún gbogbo ìgboro rẹ̀.
Ye have multiplied your slain in this city, - And have filled her streets with slain.
7 “Torí náà, báyìí ni Olúwa Olódùmarè wí, àwọn òkú tí ẹ fọn sílẹ̀ sí àárín yín ni ẹran, ìlú yìí sì ni ìkòkò ìdáná ṣùgbọ́n èmi yóò le yín jáde níbẹ̀.
Therefore Thus, saith My Lord Yahweh, Your slain. whom ye have laid in her midst, They are the flesh, and She is the caldron, —when ye are taken out of her midst.
8 Ẹ bẹ̀rù idà, èmi yóò sì mú idà wá sórí yín, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni Olúwa Olódùmarè wí.
A sword, have ye feared, — And a sword, will I bring in upon you, Declareth My Lord Yahweh.
9 Èmi yóò lé yín jáde kúrò ní ìlú yìí, èmi yóò sì fà yín lé àjèjì lọ́wọ́, èmi yóò sì mú ìdájọ́ ṣẹ lé yín lórí.
So will I take you forth out of her midst, and will deliver you into the hand of foreigners, —and will execute upon you judgments.
10 Nípa idà ni ẹ̀yin yóò ṣubú, èmi yóò sì ṣe ìdájọ́ yín ní àwọn ààlà ìlú Israẹli. Nígbà náà ni ẹ̀yin yóò mọ̀ pé, Èmi ni Olúwa.
By the sword, shall ye fall, Upon the boundary of Israel, will I judge you, —So shall ye know that, I, am Yahweh.
11 Ìlú yìí kò ní i jẹ́ ìkòkò ìdáná, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ẹ̀yin náà kò sì ní jẹ́ ẹran nínú rẹ̀, Èmi yóò ṣe ìdájọ́ yín ní àwọn ààlà ìlú Israẹli.
This city shall not serve you for a caldron, Neither shall, ye, serve in the midst thereof for flesh, —Near the boundary of Israel, will I judge you,
12 Ẹ̀yin yóò sì mọ̀ pé, Èmi ni Olúwa, nítorí pé ẹ̀yin kò tẹ̀lé àṣẹ mi ẹ̀yin kò sì pa òfin mi mọ́, ṣùgbọ́n ẹ̀yin ti hùwà gẹ́gẹ́ bí àwọn aláìgbàgbọ́ orílẹ̀-èdè tó yí yín ká.”
So shall ye know that, I, am Yahweh. In whose statutes, ye have not walked And whose appointments, ye have not executed, — But according to the appointments of the nations that are round about you, have ye done.
13 Bí mo ṣe ń sọtẹ́lẹ̀ lọ́wọ́, Pelatiah ọmọ Benaiah kú. Mo sì dojúbolẹ̀, mo sì kígbe sókè pé, “Háà! Olúwa Olódùmarè! Ṣé ìwọ yóò ha pa ìyókù Israẹli run pátápátá ni?”
And it came to pass as I prophesied, that Pelatiah son of Benaiah died, —so then I fell down upon my face and made outcry with a loud voice and said— Alas! My Lord Yahweh! A full end, art thou making of the remnant of Israel?
14 Ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa tún tọ̀ mí wá wí pé,
Then came the word of Yahweh unto me saying:
15 “Ọmọ ènìyàn, àwọn arákùnrin rẹ, àní àwọn ará rẹ, àwọn ọkùnrin nínú ìbátan rẹ, àti gbogbo ilé Israẹli pátápátá, ni àwọn ará Jerusalẹmu ti wí fún pé, ‘Ẹ jìnnà sí Olúwa, àwa ni a fi ilẹ̀ yìí fún yín ní ìní.’
Son of man Thine own brethren, thine own brethren the men of thy kindred, even all the house of Israel all of it are they to whom the inhabitants of Jerusalem have said, Get you far away from Yahweh, To us, it is that the land, hath been given, for a possession!
16 “Nítorí náà, sọ fún àwọn tó wà ní ìgbèkùn pé, ‘Báyìí ni Olúwa Olódùmarè wí, bó tilẹ̀ jẹ́ pé mo ti fọ́n wọn káàkiri orílẹ̀-èdè, síbẹ̀ fún ìgbà díẹ̀, èmi yóò jẹ́ ibi mímọ́ fún wọn níbi tí wọ́n lọ.’
Therefore, say, Thus saith My Lord. Yahweh, Although I have removed them far away among the nations, And although I have dispersed them throughout the lands Yet have I become to them a sanctuary for a little while, in the lands which they have entered
17 “Nítorí náà, wí pé, ‘Báyìí ni Olúwa Olódùmarè wí, Èmi yóò kó wọn jọ kúrò láàrín àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè tí mo fọ́n wọn ká sí, Èmi yóò sì fún wọn ní ilẹ̀ Israẹli padà.’
Therefore say, Thus saith My Lord Yahweh, Therefore will I assemble you from among the peoples, And gather you out of the lands wherein ye have been dispersed, - And will give you the soil of Israel.
18 “Wọn yóò padà síbẹ̀, wọn yóò sì mú gbogbo àwòrán ìríra rẹ̀ àti ìbọ̀rìṣà rẹ̀ kúrò.
So shall they come in thither, — and take away all her detestable things, and all her abominations, out of her;
19 Èmi yóò fún wọn ní ọ̀kankan; èmi yóò sì fi ẹ̀mí tuntun sínú wọn, Èmi yóò mú ọkàn òkúta kúrò lára wọn, èmi yóò sì fún wọn ní ọkàn tó rọ̀ bí ara ẹran.
And I will give them another heart, And a new spirit, will I put within you, —And will take away the heart of stone out of their flesh, and give them a heart of flesh:
20 Kí wọn le tẹ̀lé àṣẹ mi, kí wọn sì le pa òfin mi mọ́. Wọ́n yóò jẹ́ ènìyàn mi, Èmi náà yóò sì jẹ́ Ọlọ́run wọn.
To the end that in my statutes, they may walk, And mine appointments, they may keep, and do them, — So shall they become my people, And I will become their God.
21 Ṣùgbọ́n fún àwọn tí wọ́n ń fi gbogbo ọkàn wọn sin àwọn àwòrán ìríra àti àwọn òrìṣà, Èmi yóò mú ẹ̀san ohun tí wọ́n ṣe wá sí orí wọn bẹ́ẹ̀ ni Olúwa Olódùmarè wí.”
But as for them who having a heart for their detestable things and for their abominations after their own heart, do walk, Their way upon their own heads, will I render, Declareth My Lord Yahweh.
22 Àwọn kérúbù sì gbé ìyẹ́ wọn sókè pẹ̀lú kẹ̀kẹ́ lẹ́gbẹ̀ẹ́ wọn, ògo Ọlọ́run Israẹli sì wà lókè orí wọn.
Then did the cherubim lift up their wings, the wheels also going in unison with them, — the glory of the God of Israel, being over them above.
23 Ògo Olúwa sì gòkè lọ kúrò láàrín ìlú, ó sì dúró lórí òkè tó wà ní ìlà-oòrùn ìlú náà.
Thus went up the glory of Yahweh, out from the midst of the city, —and stood on the mountain, which is on the east of the city.
24 Lẹ́yìn náà, Ẹ̀mí gbé mi sókè, ó sì mú mi wá sí Kaldea lójú ìran, nípa ti Ẹ̀mí Ọlọ́run sí ọ̀dọ̀ àwọn ti ìgbèkùn. Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ìran tí mo rí lọ kúrò ní ọ̀dọ̀ mi,
And, the spirit lifted me up, and brought me to Chaldea unto them of the captivity, in the vision by the Spirit of God, —thus went up from me, the vision which I had seen.
25 mo sì sọ gbogbo ohun tí Olúwa fihàn mí fún àwọn tó wà ní ìgbèkùn.
So I spake unto them of the captivity, —all the words of Yahweh which he had shewed me.
