< Ezekiel 13 >

1 Ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa tọ̀ mí wá wí pé:
And there is a word of Jehovah unto me, saying,
2 “Ọmọ ènìyàn sọtẹ́lẹ̀ lòdì sí àwọn wòlíì Israẹli tó ń sọtẹ́lẹ̀, kí o sì sọ fún àwọn tí ń sọtẹ́lẹ̀ láti inú èrò ọkàn wọn, ‘Ẹ gbọ́ ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa!
'Son of man, prophesy concerning the prophets of Israel who are prophesying, and thou hast said to those prophesying from their own heart: Hear ye a word of Jehovah:
3 Báyìí ni Olúwa Olódùmarè wí: Ègbé ni fún àwọn aṣiwèrè wòlíì tó ń tẹ̀lé ẹ̀mí ara wọn tí wọn kò sì rí nǹkan kan!
Thus said the Lord Jehovah: Woe unto the prophets who are foolish, Who are going after their own spirit, And they have seen nothing.
4 Israẹli àwọn wòlíì rẹ dàbí kọ̀lọ̀kọ̀lọ̀ nínú pápá.
As foxes in the wastes, Thy prophets, O Israel, have been.
5 Ẹ̀yin kò gòkè láti mọ odi tí ó ya ní ilé Israẹli kí wọ́n ba lè dúró gbọin ní ojú ogun ní ọjọ́ Olúwa.
Ye have not gone up into breaches, Nor do ye make a fence for the house of Israel, To stand in battle in a day of Jehovah.
6 Ìran àti àfọ̀ṣẹ wọn jẹ́ èké. Wọ́n wí pé, “Olúwa wí,” nígbà tí Olúwa kò rán wọn, síbẹ̀ wọ́n fẹ́ kí Olúwa mú ọ̀rọ̀ wọn ṣẹ.
They have seen vanity, and lying divination, Who are saying: An affirmation of Jehovah, And Jehovah hath not sent them, And they have hoped to establish a word.
7 Ẹ̀yin kò ha ti rí ìran asán, ẹ̀yin kò ha ti fọ àfọ̀ṣẹ èké, nígbà tí ẹ̀yin sọ pé, “Olúwa wí,” bẹ́ẹ̀ sì ni Èmi kò sọ̀rọ̀?
A vain vision have ye not seen, And a lying divination spoken, When ye say: An affirmation of Jehovah, And I have not spoken?
8 “‘Nítorí náà, báyìí ni Olúwa Olódùmarè wí, Nítorí ọ̀rọ̀ asán àti ìran èké yín, mo lòdì sí yín: ni Olúwa Olódùmarè wí.
Therefore, thus said the Lord Jehovah: Because ye have spoken vanity, and seen a lie, Therefore, lo, I [am] against you, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah.
9 Ọwọ́ mi yóò sì wà lórí àwọn wòlíì tó ń ríran asán, tó sì ń sọ àfọ̀ṣẹ èké. Wọn kò ní sí nínú ìjọ àwọn ènìyàn mi, a ó sì yọ orúkọ wọn kúrò nínú àkọsílẹ̀ ilé Israẹli, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni wọn kò sì ní wọ ilẹ̀ Israẹli mọ́. Nígbà náà ni ẹ̀yin yóò sì mọ̀ pé, Èmi ni Olúwa Olódùmarè.
And My hand hath been on the prophets, Who are seeing vanity, and who are divining a lie, In the assembly of My people they are not, And in the writing of the house of Israel they are not written, And unto the ground of Israel they come not, And ye have known that I [am] the Lord Jehovah.
10 “‘Wọ́n ti mú àwọn ènìyàn mi ṣìnà, wọ́n ní, “Àlàáfíà,” nígbà tí kò sí àlàáfíà, nítorí pé bí àwọn ènìyàn bá mọ odi fẹ́lẹ́fẹ́lẹ́, wọn a fi amọ̀ àìpò rẹ́ ẹ, wọn ó sì fi ẹfun kùn ún,
Because, even because, they did cause My people to err, Saying, Peace! and there is no peace, And that one is building a wall, And lo, they are daubing it with chalk.
11 nítorí náà, sọ fún àwọn tí ń fi amọ̀ àìpò rẹ́ ẹ àti àwọn tó fi ẹfun kùn ún pé, odi náà yóò wó, ìkún omi òjò yóò dé, Èmi yóò sì rán òkúta yìnyín sọ̀kalẹ̀, ìjì líle yóò ya á lulẹ̀.
Say to those daubing with chalk — It falleth, There hath been an overflowing shower, And ye, O hailstones, do fall, And a tempestuous wind doth rend,
12 Nígbà tí odi náà bá sì wó, ǹjẹ́ àwọn ènìyàn wọn kò níbi yín pé, “Rírẹ́ tí ẹ rẹ́ ẹ dà, ibo sì ni ẹfun tí ẹ fi kùn ún wà?”
And lo, fallen hath the wall! Doth not one say unto you, Where [is] the daubing that ye daubed?
13 “‘Nítorí náà, báyìí ni Olúwa Olódùmarè wí, Nínú ìbínú gbígbóná mi, èmi yóò tu afẹ́fẹ́ líle lé e lórí nínú ìrunú mi, àti nínú ìbínú mi, òjò yóò sì rọ̀ púpọ̀ nínú ìbínú mi, àti yìnyín ńlá nínú ìrunú mi láti pa wọ́n run.
Therefore, thus said the Lord Jehovah: I have rent with a tempestuous wind in My fury, And an overflowing shower is in Mine anger, And hailstones in My fury — to consume.
14 Èmi yóò wó ògiri tí ẹ fi amọ̀ àìpò rẹ́, èyí tí ẹ fi ẹfun kùn lulẹ̀ dé bi pé ìpìlẹ̀ rẹ yóò hàn jáde. Nígbà ti odi náà wó palẹ̀, a ó sì run yín sínú rẹ̀, ẹ̀yin yóò sì mọ̀ pé, Èmi ni Olúwa.
And I have broken down the wall that ye daubed with chalk, And have caused it to come unto the earth, And revealed hath been its foundation, And it hath fallen, And ye have been consumed in its midst, And ye have known that I [am] Jehovah.
15 Báyìí ni Èmi yóò ṣe lo ìbínú mi lórí odi yìí àti àwọn to fi amọ̀ àìpò rẹ́ ẹ, tí wọ́n sì fi ẹfun kùn ún. Èmi yóò sì sọ fún yín pé, “Kò sí odi mọ́, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni àwọn tó rẹ́ ẹ náà kò sí mọ́.
And I have completed My wrath on the wall, And on those daubing it with chalk, And I say to you: The wall is not, And those daubing it are not;
16 Àwọn wòlíì Israẹli tí ń sọtẹ́lẹ̀ sí Jerusalẹmu, tí wọn ríran àlàáfíà sí i nígbà ti kò sì àlàáfíà, báyìí ni Olúwa Olódùmarè wí.”’
The prophets of Israel who are prophesying concerning Jerusalem, And who are seeing for her a vision of peace, And there is no peace, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah.
17 “Nísinsin yìí, ọmọ ènìyàn, dojúkọ àwọn ọmọbìnrin ènìyàn rẹ tí wọ́n ń sọtẹ́lẹ̀ láti inú èrò ọkàn wọn, sọtẹ́lẹ̀ sí wọn
And thou, son of man, set thy face against the daughters of thy people, who are prophesying out of their own heart, and prophesy concerning them,
18 wí pé, ‘Báyìí ni Olúwa Olódùmarè wí. Ègbé ni fún ẹ̀yin obìnrin tí ẹ ń rán ìfúnpá òògùn sí ìgbọ̀nwọ́ àwọn ènìyàn, tí ẹ ń ṣe ìbòjú oríṣìíríṣìí fún orí oníkálùkù ènìyàn láti ṣọdẹ ọkàn wọn. Ẹ̀yin yóò wa dẹkùn fún ọkàn àwọn ènìyàn mi bí? Ẹ̀yin yóò sì gba ọkàn ti ó tọ̀ yín wá là bí?
And thou hast said: Thus said the Lord Jehovah: Woe to those sowing pillows for all joints of the arm, And to those making the kerchiefs For the head of every stature — to hunt souls, The souls do ye hunt of My people? And the souls ye have do ye keep alive?
19 Nítorí ẹ̀kúnwọ́ ọkà barle àti òkèlè oúnjẹ. Ẹ ti pa àwọn tí kò yẹ kí ẹ pa, ẹ sì fi àwọn tí kò yẹ kó wà láààyè sílẹ̀ nípa irọ́ tí ẹ ń pa fún àwọn ènìyàn mi, èyí tí àwọn náà ń fetí sí.
Yea, ye pierce Me concerning My people, For handfuls of barley, And for pieces of bread, to put to death Souls that should not die, And to keep alive souls that should not live, By your lying to My people — hearkening to lies.
20 “‘Nítorí náà, báyìí ni Olúwa Olódùmarè wí. Mo lòdì sí ìfúnpá òògùn tí ẹ fi ń ṣọdẹ ọkàn ènìyàn káàkiri bí ẹyẹ, Èmi yóò ya á kúrò lápá yín, Èmi yóò sì dá ọkàn àwọn ènìyàn tí ẹ ń ṣọdẹ sílẹ̀.
Therefore, thus said the Lord Jehovah: Lo, I [am] against your pillows, With which ye are hunting there the souls of the flourishing, And I have rent them from off your arms, And have sent away the souls that ye are hunting, The souls of the flourishing.
21 Èmi yóò ya àwọn ìbòjú yín, láti gba àwọn ènìyàn mi lọ́wọ́ yín, wọn kò sì ní jẹ́ ìjẹ fún yín mọ́. Nígbà náà ni ẹ̀yin yóò mọ̀ pé, Èmi ni Olúwa.
And I have torn your kerchiefs, And delivered My people out of your hand, And they are no more in your hand for a prey, And ye have known that I [am] Jehovah.
22 Nítorí pé ẹ̀yin ti ba ọkàn àwọn olódodo jẹ́ pẹ̀lú irọ́ yín, nígbà tí Èmi kò mú ìbànújẹ́ bá wọn, àti nítorí ẹ̀yin ti mú ọkàn àwọn ènìyàn búburú le, kí wọ́n má ba à kúrò nínú ọ̀nà ibi wọn dé bi tí wọn yóò fi gba ẹ̀mí wọn là,
Because of paining the heart of the righteous with falsehood, And I have not pained it, And strengthening the hands of the wicked, So as not to turn back from his evil way, To keep him alive,
23 nítorí èyí, ẹ̀yin kò ní í ríran èké, ẹ̀yin kò sì ní fọ àfọ̀ṣẹ mọ́. Èmi yóò gba àwọn ènìyàn mi lọ́wọ́ yín. Ẹ̀yin yóò sì mọ̀ pé, Èmi ni Olúwa.’”
Therefore, vanity ye do not see, And divination ye do not divine again, And I have delivered My people out of your hand, And ye have known that I [am] Jehovah!'
