Ezekiel 21
1 Ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa tọ mi wá:
And there is a word of YHWH to me, saying,
2 “Ọmọ ènìyàn, kọ ojú rẹ sí ìhà Jerusalẹmu, kí o sì wàásù lòdì sí ibi mímọ́. Sọ àsọtẹ́lẹ̀ sí ilẹ̀ Israẹli.
“Son of man, set your face toward Jerusalem, and prophesy to the holy places, and prophesy to the ground of Israel;
3 Kí ó sì sọ fún un pe, ‘Èyí yìí ni Olúwa wí, Èmi lòdì sí ọ. Èmi yóò fa idà mi yọ kúrò nínú àkọ̀ rẹ̀, Èmi yóò sì ké olódodo àti ènìyàn búburú kúrò ni àárín yín.
and you have said to the ground of Israel, Thus said YHWH: Behold, I [am] against you, And have brought out My sword from its scabbard, And have cut off righteous and wicked from you.
4 Nítorí pé, èmi yóò ké olódodo àti olùṣe búburú kúrò, idà mi yóò jáde láti inú àkọ̀ rẹ̀ lòdì sí gbogbo ènìyàn láti gúúsù títí dé àríwá.
Because that I have cut off righteous and wicked from you, Therefore My sword goes out from its scabbard, To all flesh, from south to north.
5 Nígbà náà gbogbo ènìyàn yóò mọ̀ pé, Èmi Olúwa ti yọ idà mi kúrò nínú àkọ̀ rẹ̀; kì yóò sì padà sínú rẹ̀ mọ́.’
And all flesh has known that I, YHWH, Have brought out My sword from its scabbard, It does not turn back anymore.
6 “Nítorí náà, mí ìmí ẹ̀dùn ìwọ ọmọ ènìyàn! Mí ìmí ẹ̀dùn pẹ̀lú ọkàn ìbànújẹ́ àti ẹ̀dùn ọkàn kíkorò ní iwájú wọn.
And you, son of man, sigh with breaking of loins, indeed, sigh before their eyes with bitterness,
7 Bí wọ́n bá sì bi ọ́, wí pé, ‘Kí ni ó dé tí ìwọ fi ń mí ìmí ẹ̀dùn?’ Ìwọ yóò wí pé, ‘Nítorí ìròyìn tí ó ń bẹ. Gbogbo ọkàn ni yóò yọ́, gbogbo ọwọ́ ni yóò sì di aláìlera; gbogbo ọkàn ní yóò dákú, gbogbo eékún ni yóò sì di aláìlera bí omi?’ Ó ń bọ̀! Yóò sì wa sí ìmúṣẹ dandan, ni Olúwa Olódùmarè wí.”
and it has come to pass, when they say to you, Why are you sighing? That you have said: Because of the report, for it is coming, And every heart has melted, And all hands have been feeble, And every spirit is weak, And all knees go [as] waters, Behold, it is coming, indeed, it has been, A declaration of Lord YHWH.”
8 Ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa si tún tọ̀ mí wá pé:
And there is a word of YHWH to me, saying,
9 “Ọmọ ènìyàn, sọtẹ́lẹ̀ wí pé, èyí yìí ní Olúwa wí pé, “‘Idà kan, idà kan, tí a pọ́n, tí a sì dán pẹ̀lú,
“Son of man, prophesy, and you have said, Thus said YHWH: Say, A sword, a sword is sharpened, and also polished.
10 a pọ́n láti pa ènìyàn púpọ̀, a dán an láti máa kọ mọ̀nà! “‘Àwa o ha máa ṣe àríyá ọ̀gọ ọmọ mi? Idà gán gbogbo irú igi bẹ́ẹ̀.
It is sharpened so as to slaughter a slaughter. It is polished so as to have brightness, Or do we rejoice? It is despising the scepter of My son [as] every tree.
11 “‘Idà ní a yàn láti pọ́n, kí ó lè ṣe é gbámú; a pọ́n ọn, a sì dán an, ó ṣetán fún ọwọ́ àwọn apani.
And He gives it for polishing, For laying hold of by the hand. It is sharpened—the sword—and polished, To give it into the hand of a slayer.
12 Sọkún síta, kí ó sì pohùnréré ẹ̀kún, ọmọ ènìyàn, nítorí yóò wá sórí àwọn ènìyàn mi; yóò wá sórí gbogbo ọmọ-aládé Israẹli ìbẹ̀rù ńlá yóò wá sórí àwọn ènìyàn mi nítorí idà náà; nítorí náà lu oókan àyà rẹ.
Cry and howl, son of man, For it has been among My people, It [is] among all the princes of Israel, My people have been cast to the sword. Therefore strike on your thigh,
13 “‘Ìdánwò yóò dé dandan. Tí ọ̀pá aládé Juda èyí tí idà kẹ́gàn, kò bá tẹ̀síwájú mọ́ ń kọ́? Ni Olúwa Olódùmarè wí.’
Because [it is] a trier, And what if it is even despising the scepter? It will not be, a declaration of Lord YHWH.
14 “Nítorí náà, ọmọ ènìyàn, sọtẹ́lẹ̀ kí ó sì fi ọwọ́ lu ọwọ́. Jẹ́ kí idà lu ara wọn lẹ́ẹ̀méjì, kódà ní ẹ̀ẹ̀mẹta. Ó jẹ́ idà fún ìpànìyàn idà fún ìpànìyàn lọ́pọ̀lọ́pọ̀, tí yóò sé wọn mọ́ níhìn-ín àti lọ́hùnnún.
And you, son of man, prophesy, And strike hand on hand, And the sword is bent a third time, The sword of the wounded! It [is] the sword of the wounded—the great one, That is entering the inner chamber to them.
15 Kí ọkàn kí ó lè yọ́ kí àwọn tí ó ṣubú le pọ̀, mo ti gbé idà sí gbogbo bodè fún ìparun. Háà! A mú kí ó kọ bí ìmọ̀nàmọ́ná, a gbá a mú fún ìparun.
To melt the heart, and to multiply the ruins, I have set the point of a sword by all their gates. Aah! It is made for brightness, Wrapped up for slaughter.
16 Ìwọ idà, jà sí ọ̀tún kí o sì jà sí òsì lọ ibikíbi tí ẹnu rẹ bá dojúkọ.
Take possession of the right, place yourself at the left, To where your face is appointed.
17 Èmi gan an yóò pàtẹ́wọ́ ìbínú mi yóò sì rẹlẹ̀. Èmi Olúwa ti sọ̀rọ̀.”
And I also, I strike My hand on My hand, And have caused My fury to rest; I, YHWH, have spoken.”
18 Ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa tọ mi wá:
And there is a word of YHWH to me, saying,
19 “Ọmọ ènìyàn la ọ̀nà méjì fún idà ọba Babeli láti gbà, kí méjèèjì bẹ̀rẹ̀ láti ìlú kan náà. Ṣe àmì sí ìkóríta ọ̀nà tí ó lọ sí ìlú náà.
“And you, son of man, appoint two ways for yourself, for the coming in of the sword of the king of Babylon; they come forth from one land, both of them. And create a station; create [it] at the top of the way of the city.
20 La ọ̀nà kan fún idà láti wá kọlu Rabba ti àwọn ará Ammoni kí òmíràn kọlu Juda, kí ó sì kọlu Jerusalẹmu ìlú olódi.
Appoint a way for the coming of the sword, To Rabbath of the sons of Ammon, And to Judah, in fortified Jerusalem.
21 Nítorí ọba Babeli yóò dúró ni ìyànà ní ojú ọ̀nà, ní ìkóríta, láti máa lo àfọ̀ṣẹ. Yóò fi ọfà di ìbò, yóò béèrè lọ́wọ́ àwọn òrìṣà rẹ̀, òun yóò ṣe àyẹ̀wò ẹ̀dọ̀.
For the king of Babylon has stood at the head of the way, At the top of the two ways, to use divination, He has moved lightly with the arrows, He has inquired of the teraphim, He has looked on the liver.
22 Nínú ọwọ́ ọ̀tún rẹ ni ìbò Jerusalẹmu yóò ti wá, ní ibi tí yóò ti gbé afárá kalẹ̀, láti pàṣẹ fún àwọn apànìyàn, láti mú ki wọn hó ìhó ogun láti gbé òòlù dí ẹnu-ọ̀nà ibodè, láti mọ odi, àti láti kọ́ ilé ìṣọ́.
The divination [for] Jerusalem has been at his right, To place battering-rams, To open the mouth with slaughter, To lift up a voice with shouting, To place battering-rams against the gates, To pour out a mound, to build a fortification.
23 Àfọ̀ṣẹ náà yóò dàbí àmì èké sí àwọn tí ó ti búra ìtẹríba fún un, ṣùgbọ́n òun yóò ran wọn létí ẹbí wọn yóò sì mú wọn lọ sí ìgbèkùn.
And it has been to them as a false divination in their eyes, Who have sworn oaths to them, But he is causing iniquity to be remembered [so they] are caught.
24 “Nítorí náà èyí ní ohun tí Olúwa Olódùmarè wí: ‘Nítorí ti ẹ̀yin ti mú ẹ̀bi yín wá sí ìrántí nípa ìṣọ̀tẹ̀ ní gbangba, ní ṣíṣe àfihàn àwọn ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ rẹ nínú gbogbo ohun tí ó ṣe, nítorí tí ẹ̀yin ti ṣe èyí, a yóò mú yín ní ìgbèkùn.
Therefore, thus said Lord YHWH: Because of your causing your iniquity to be remembered, In your transgressions being revealed, For your sins being seen, in all your doings, Because of your being remembered, You are caught by the hand.
25 “‘Ìwọ aláìmọ́ àti ẹni búburú ọmọ-aládé Israẹli, ẹni ti ọjọ́ rẹ̀ ti dé, ẹni tí àsìkò ìjìyà rẹ̀ ti dé góńgó,
And you, wounded, wicked one, Prince of Israel, whose day has come, In the time of the iniquity of the end,
26 èyí yìí ní ohun tí Olúwa Olódùmarè wí, tú ìwérí kúrò kí o sì gbé adé kúrò. Kò ní rí bí ti tẹ́lẹ̀, ẹni ìgbéga ni a yóò sì rẹ̀ sílẹ̀.
Thus said Lord YHWH: Turn aside the turban, and carry away the crown, This—not this—make high the low, And make low the high.
27 Ìparun! Ìparun! Èmi yóò ṣé e ni ìparun! Kì yóò padà bọ̀ sípò bí kò ṣe pé tí ó bá wá sí ọ̀dọ̀ ẹni tí ó ní ẹ̀tọ́ láti ni in; òun ni èmi yóò fi fún.’
An overturn, overturn, overturn, I make it, Also this has not been until the coming of Him, Whose [is] the judgment, and I have given it.
28 “Àti ìwọ, ọmọ ènìyàn sọtẹ́lẹ̀ kí ó sì wí pé, ‘Èyí yìí ní ohun tí Olúwa Olódùmarè wí nípa àwọn ará Ammoni àti àbùkù wọn: “‘Idà kan idà kan tí á fa yọ fún ìpànìyàn tí a dán láti fi ènìyàn ṣòfò àti láti kọ bí ìmọ̀nàmọ́ná!
And you, son of man, prophesy, and you have said, Thus said Lord YHWH concerning the sons of Ammon, and concerning their reproach, and you have said: A sword, a sword, open for slaughter, Polished to the utmost for brightness!
29 Bí ó tilẹ̀ jẹ́ pé a rí èké nípa yín àti àfọ̀ṣẹ èké nípa yín a yóò gbé e lé àwọn ọrùn ènìyàn búburú ti a ó pa, àwọn tí ọjọ́ wọn ti dé, àwọn tí ọjọ́ ìjìyà wọn ti dé góńgó.
In seeing a vain thing for you, In divining a lie for you, To put you on the necks of the wounded of the wicked, whose day has come, In the time of the iniquity of the end.
30 “‘Dá idà padà sínú àkọ̀ rẹ̀. Níbi tí a gbé ṣẹ̀dá yín, ní ibi tí ẹ̀yin ti ṣẹ̀ wá.
Turn [it] back to its scabbard; I judge you In the place where you were produced, In the land of your birth.
31 Níbẹ̀ ni èmi yóò ti ṣe ìdájọ́ yín, èmi o sì fi èémí ìbínú gbígbóná mi bá yín jà.
And I have poured My indignation on you, I blow against you with [the] fire of My wrath, And have given you into the hand of brutish men—craftsmen of destruction.
32 Ẹ̀yin yóò jẹ́ èpò fún iná náà, a yóò ta ẹ̀jẹ̀ yin sórí ilẹ̀ yín, a kì yóò rántí yín mọ́; nítorí Èmi Olúwa ní ó ti wí bẹ́ẹ̀.’”
You are fuel for the fire, Your blood is in the midst of the land, You are not remembered, For I, YHWH, have spoken!”
