Ezekiel 33
1 Ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa tọ̀ mí wá:
Again the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
2 “Ọmọ ènìyàn sọ̀rọ̀ sí àwọn ènìyàn ilẹ̀ rẹ kí ó sì sọ fún wọn: ‘Nígbà tí mo bá fi idà kọlu ilẹ̀ kan, tí àwọn ènìyàn ilẹ̀ náà yan ọ̀kan lára àwọn ọkùnrin wọn láti jẹ́ alóre wọn,
Son of man, speak to the children of your people, and say to them, When I bring the sword on a land, if the people of the land take a man of their coasts, and set him for their watchman:
3 tí ó sì rí i pé idà ń bọ̀ lórí ilẹ̀ náà, tí ó sì fọn ìpè láti kìlọ̀ fún àwọn ènìyàn,
If when he sees the sword come on the land, he blow the trumpet, and warn the people;
4 nígbà náà tí ẹnikẹ́ni bá gbọ́ ìpè ṣùgbọ́n tí kò gbọ́ ìkìlọ̀, tí idà náà wá tí ó sì gba ẹ̀mí rẹ̀, ẹ̀jẹ̀ rẹ̀ yóò wà lórí ara rẹ̀.
Then whoever hears the sound of the trumpet, and takes not warning; if the sword come, and take him away, his blood shall be on his own head.
5 Nítorí tí ó gbọ́ ohùn ìpè ṣùgbọ́n tí kò sì gbọ́ ìkìlọ̀, ẹ̀jẹ̀ rẹ̀ yóò wà ní orí ara rẹ̀. Tí ó bá gbọ́ ìkìlọ̀, òun ìbá ti gba ara rẹ̀ là.
He heard the sound of the trumpet, and took not warning; his blood shall be on him. But he that takes warning shall deliver his soul.
6 Ṣùgbọ́n bí alóre bá rí idà tí o ń bọ̀, tí kò sì fọn ìpè láti ki àwọn ènìyàn nílọ̀, tí idà náà wá, tí ó sì gba ẹ̀mí ọ̀kan nínú wọn, a yóò mú ọkùnrin náà lọ nítorí ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ rẹ̀, ṣùgbọ́n èmi yóò béèrè ẹ̀jẹ̀ rẹ̀ lọ́wọ́ rẹ̀.’
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 “Ọmọ ènìyàn, èmi fi ọ ṣe alóre fún ilé Israẹli; nítorí náà gbọ́ ọ̀rọ̀ tí mo sọ, kí o sì fún wọn ni ìkìlọ̀ láti ọ̀dọ̀ mi.
So you, O son of man, I have set you a watchman to the house of Israel; therefore you shall hear the word at my mouth, and warn them from me.
8 Nígbà ti mo bá sọ fún ẹni búburú pé, ‘A! Ẹni búburú, ìwọ yóò kú dandan,’ ti ìwọ kò sì sọ̀rọ̀ síta láti yí i lọ́kàn padà kúrò ni ọ̀nà rẹ̀ gbogbo, ẹni búburú náà yóò kú nínú ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ rẹ̀, èmi yóò sì béèrè ẹ̀jẹ̀ rẹ̀ lọ́wọ́ rẹ.
When I say to 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 Ṣùgbọ́n bí ìwọ bá kìlọ̀ fún ẹni búburú láti yí padà kúrò ni ọ̀nà rẹ̀ gbogbo, tí òun kò sì ṣe bẹ́ẹ̀, òun yóò kú nítorí ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ rẹ̀, ṣùgbọ́n ìwọ ti gba ọkàn rẹ̀ là.
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 “Ọmọ ènìyàn; sọ fún ilé Israẹli, ‘Èyí yìí ní ìwọ sọ: “Àwọn ìrékọjá àti ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ wa tẹ orí wa ba, àwa sì ń ṣòfò dànù nítorí wọn. Bá wó wa ni a ṣe lè yè?”’
Therefore, O you son of man, speak to the house of Israel; Thus you speak, saying, If our transgressions and our sins be on us, and we pine away in them, how should we then live?
11 Sọ fún wọn pé, ‘Níwọ́n ìgbà tí mo wà láààyè ni Olúwa Olódùmarè wí, èmi kò ní inú dídùn sí ikú ènìyàn búburú, ṣùgbọ́n dípò bẹ́ẹ̀, kí wọ̀nyí padà kúrò ní ọ̀nà wọn gbogbo kì wọn kì ó sì yè. Yí! Yípadà kúrò ni ọ̀nà búburú gbogbo! Kí ló dé tí ìwọ yóò kú ẹ̀yin ènìyàn Israẹli?’
Say to 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 you, turn you from your evil ways; for why will you die, O house of Israel?
12 “Nítorí náà, ọmọ ènìyàn, sọ fún àwọn ènìyàn ilẹ̀ rẹ, ‘Ìṣòdodo ti olódodo ènìyàn kì yóò gbà á nígbà tí òun bá ṣe àìgbọ́ràn, ìwà búburú ènìyàn búburú kì yóò mú kí o ṣubú nígbà tí ó bá yí padà kúrò nínú rẹ̀. Bí olódodo ènìyàn bá ṣẹ̀, a kò ni jẹ́ kí ó yè nítorí òdodo rẹ̀ ti tẹ́lẹ̀.’
Therefore, you son of man, say to 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 Bí mo bá sọ fún olódodo ènìyàn pé òun yóò yè, ṣùgbọ́n nígbà náà tí ó gbẹ́kẹ̀lé òdodo rẹ̀ tí ó sì ṣe búburú, a kò ní rántí nǹkan kan nínú iṣẹ́ òdodo tí o ti ṣe sẹ́yìn; òun yóò kú nítorí búburú tí ó ṣe.
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 Bí mo bá sọ fún ènìyàn búburú pé, ‘Ìwọ yóò kú dandan,’ ṣùgbọ́n tí ó bá yípadà kúrò nínú ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ rẹ̀, ti o sì ṣe èyí tí ó tọ́ àti èyí tí o yẹ.
Again, when I say to the wicked, You shall surely die; if he turn from his sin, and do that which is lawful and right;
15 Tí ó bá mu ògo padà, tí o sì da ohun tí o ti jí gbé padà, tí ó sì tẹ̀lé òfin tí ó ń fún ni ní ìyè, tí kò sì ṣe búburú, òun yóò yè dandan; òun kì yóò kú.
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 A kò ní rántí ọ̀kan nínú ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ tí ó ti dá. Ó ti ṣe èyí tí ó tọ àti èyí tí o yẹ; òun yóò sì yè dájúdájú.
None of his sins that he has committed shall be mentioned to him: he has done that which is lawful and right; he shall surely live.
17 “Síbẹ̀ àwọn ènìyàn ilẹ̀ rẹ sọ pé, ‘Ọ̀nà Olúwa kò tọ́.’ Ṣùgbọ́n ọ̀nà tí àwọn ní ó tọ́.
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 Bí olódodo ènìyàn ba yípadà kúrò nínú òdodo rẹ̀, tí o sì ṣe búburú, òun yóò kú nítorí rẹ̀.
When the righteous turns from his righteousness, and commits iniquity, he shall even die thereby.
19 Bí ènìyàn búburú bá yípadà kúrò nínú búburú rẹ̀, tí ó sì ṣe èyí tí ó tọ́ àti èyí tí ó yẹ, òun yóò yè nípa ṣíṣe bẹ́ẹ̀.
But if the wicked turn from his wickedness, and do that which is lawful and right, he shall live thereby.
20 Síbẹ̀, ilé Israẹli ìwọ wí pé, ‘Ọ̀nà Olúwa ki i ṣe òtítọ́.’ Ṣùgbọ́n èmi yóò ṣe ìdájọ́ ẹnìkọ̀ọ̀kan gẹ́gẹ́ bí ọ̀nà rẹ̀ ṣe rí.”
Yet you say, The way of the Lord is not equal. O you house of Israel, I will judge you every one after his ways.
21 Ní ọjọ́ karùn-ún oṣù kẹwàá, ọdún kejìlá ìkólọ wa, ọkùnrin kan tí ó sá kúrò ni Jerusalẹmu wá sọ́dọ̀ mi, ó sì wí pé, “Ìlú ńlá náà ti ṣubú!”
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 to me, saying, The city is smitten.
22 Ní ìrọ̀lẹ́ ọjọ́ tí ó ku ọ̀la tí ẹni tí ó sálọ náà yóò dé, ọwọ́ Olúwa sì níbẹ̀ lára mi, o sì ya ẹnu mi ki ọkùnrin náà tó wá sọ́dọ̀ mi ní òwúrọ̀. Ẹnu mí sì ṣí, èmi kò sì yadi mọ́.
Now the hand of the LORD was on 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 Ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa tọ̀ mí wá:
Then the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
24 “Ọmọ ènìyàn, àwọn ènìyàn tí ó ń gbé nínú ìparun ní ilẹ̀ Israẹli ń wí pé, ‘Abrahamu jẹ́ ọkùnrin kan, síbẹ̀ o gba ilẹ̀ ìní náà. Ṣùgbọ́n àwa pọ̀, lóòótọ́ a ti fi ilẹ̀ náà fún wa gẹ́gẹ́ bí ìní wa.’
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 Nítorí náà, sọ fún wọn pé, ‘Èyí yìí ní Olúwa Olódùmarè wí: Níwọ́n ìgbà tí ẹ̀yin jẹ ẹran pẹ̀lú ẹ̀jẹ̀ ni inú rẹ̀, tí ẹ̀yin sì wó àwọn ère yín, tí ẹ sì ta ẹ̀jẹ̀ sílẹ̀, ẹ̀yin yóò ha gba ilẹ̀ náà?
Why say to them, Thus says the Lord GOD; You eat with the blood, and lift up your eyes toward your idols, and shed blood: and shall you possess the land?
26 Ẹ̀yin gbẹ́kẹ̀lé idà yín, ẹ̀yin ṣe nǹkan ìríra, ẹnìkọ̀ọ̀kan nínú yín ba á obìnrin aládùúgbò rẹ̀ jẹ́. Ẹ̀yin yóò ha gba ilẹ̀ náà?’
You stand on your sword, you work abomination, and you defile every one his neighbor’s wife: and shall you possess the land?
27 “Sọ èyí fún wọn: ‘Èyí yìí ni Olúwa Olódùmarè wí: Bí mo ti wà láààyè, àwọn tí ó kúrò nínú ìparun yóò ti ipa idà ṣubú, àwọn tí ẹranko búburú yóò pajẹ, àwọn tí ó sì wà ní ilé ìṣọ́ àti inú ihò òkúta ni àjàkálẹ̀-ààrùn yóò pa.
Say you thus to 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 Èmi yóò mú kí ilẹ̀ náà di ahoro, ọ̀ṣọ́ ńlá agbára rẹ̀ kì yóò sí mọ́, àwọn òkè Israẹli yóò sì di ahoro, tí ẹnikẹ́ni kò ní le là á kọjá.
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 Nígbà náà, wọn yóò mọ̀ pé èmi ni Olúwa, nígbà tí mo bá mú ilẹ̀ náà di ahoro nítorí gbogbo ohun ìríra tí wọ́n ti ṣe.’
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 “Ní tìrẹ, ọmọ ènìyàn, àwọn ènìyàn ìlú n sọ̀rọ̀ nípa rẹ ní ẹ̀gbẹ́ ògiri àti ní ẹnu-ọ̀nà ilé wọn, wọ́n ń sọ sí ara wọn wí pé, ‘Ẹ wá gbọ́ iṣẹ́ ti a ran láti ọ̀dọ̀ Olúwa wá.’
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 Àwọn ènìyàn mi wá sọ́dọ̀ rẹ, gẹ́gẹ́ bí wọn ṣe ń ṣe, wọn sì jókòó níwájú rẹ láti fetísí ọ̀rọ̀ rẹ, ṣùgbọ́n wọn kò mú wá sí ìṣe. Ẹnu wọn ni wọ́n fi n sọ̀rọ̀ ìfọkànsìn, ṣùgbọ́n ọkàn wọn ní ìwọra èrè tí kò tọ́.
And they come to 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 Nítòótọ́ lójú wọn, ìwọ jẹ́ ẹni kan tí ó ń kọrin ìfẹ́ pẹ̀lú ohun dídára àti ohun èlò orin kíkọ, nítorí wọ́n gbọ́ ọ̀rọ̀ rẹ ṣùgbọ́n wọn kò mu wá sí ìṣe.
And, see, you are to 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 “Nígbà tí gbogbo ìwọ̀nyí bá ṣẹ tí yóò sì ṣẹ dandan, nígbà náà wọn yóò mọ̀ pé wòlíì kan ti wa láàrín wọn rí.”
And when this comes to pass, (see, it will come, ) then shall they know that a prophet has been among them.
