< Ezekiel 36 >
1 “Ọmọ ènìyàn, sọtẹ́lẹ̀ sí àwọn òkè gíga Israẹli kí o sì wí pé, ‘Ẹ̀yin òkè gíga Israẹli gbọ́ ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa.
And thou, son of man, prophesy unto mountains of Israel, and thou hast said, O mountains of Israel, hear a word of Jehovah.
2 Èyí yìí ni Olúwa Olódùmarè wí: Àwọn ọ̀tá sọ nípa yín pé, “Háà! Àwọn ibi gíga ìgbàanì ti di ohun ìní wa.”’
Thus said the Lord Jehovah: Because the enemy said against you, Aha, and the high places of old for a possession have been to us,
3 Nítorí náà, sọtẹ́lẹ̀ kí ó sì wí pé, ‘Èyí yìí ni Olúwa Olódùmarè wí: Nítorí pé wọn sọ ọ di ahoro, tí wọn sì ń dọdẹ rẹ ní gbogbo ọ̀nà kí ìwọ kí ó lè di ìní fún àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè tí ó kù, àti ohun ti àwọn ènìyàn ń sọ ọ̀rọ̀ ìríra àti ìdíbàjẹ́ sí,
therefore, prophesy, and thou hast said: Thus said the Lord Jehovah: Because, even because, of desolating, And of swallowing you up from round about, For your being a possession to the remnant of the nations, And ye are taken up on the tip of the tongue, And [are] an evil report of the people.
4 nítorí náà, ẹ̀yin òkè gíga Israẹli gbọ́ ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa Olódùmarè, èyí yìí ní Olúwa Olódùmarè wí fún àwọn òkè gíga àti àwọn òkè kéékèèké, fún àfonífojì ńlá àti àfonífojì kéékèèké, fún àwọn ibi ìsọdahoro ìparun àti fún àwọn ìlú tí a ti kọ̀sílẹ̀ tí a ti kó tí àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè tí ó kù ní àyíká sì fi ṣe ẹlẹ́yà,
Therefore, O mountains of Israel, Hear a word of the Lord Jehovah: Thus said the Lord Jehovah, to mountains, and to hills, To streams, and to valleys, And to wastes that [are] desolate, And to cities that are forsaken, That have been for a prey, And for a scorn, to the remnant of the nations who [are] round about.
5 èyí yìí ni Olúwa Olódùmarè wí: Ní ìgbóná ọkàn ní mo sọ̀rọ̀ sí àwọn kèfèrí yòókù, àti sí Edomu, nítorí pẹ̀lú ìbínú àti ìjowú ní ọkàn wọn ni wọ́n sọ ilé mi di ohun ìní wọn, kí wọn kí o lè kó pápá oko tútù rẹ̀.’
Therefore, thus said the Lord Jehovah: Have I not, in the fire of My jealousy, Spoken against the remnant of the nations, And against Edom — all of it, Who gave My land to themselves for a possession, With the joy of the whole heart — with despite of soul, For the sake of casting it out for a prey?
6 Nítorí náà, sọtẹ́lẹ̀ nípa ilẹ̀ Israẹli náà kí o sì sọ sí àwọn òkè gíga náà àti àwọn òkè kéékèèké, sí àwọn àfonífojì ńlá àti sí àwọn àfonífojì kéékèèké, ‘Èyí yìí ni Olúwa Olódùmarè wí: Èmi sọ̀rọ̀ nínú ìrunú owú mi nítorí pé ìwọ ti jìyà ìfiṣẹ̀sín àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè.
Therefore, prophesy concerning the ground of Israel, And thou hast said to mountains, and to hills, To streams, and to valleys, Thus said the Lord Jehovah: Lo, I, in My jealousy, and in My fury, I have spoken, Because the shame of nations ye have borne.
7 Nítorí náà, èyí yìí ni Olúwa Olódùmarè wí: Èmi ṣe ìbúra nípa nína ọwọ́ mi sókè pé; àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè àyíká rẹ náà yóò jìyà ìfiṣẹ̀sín.
Therefore, thus said the Lord Jehovah: I — I have lifted up My hand, Do not — the nations who [are] with you from round about — they their own shame bear?
8 “‘Ṣùgbọ́n ìwọ, òkè gíga Israẹli, yóò mú ẹ̀ka àti èso fún àwọn ènìyàn mi Israẹli, nítorí wọn yóò wá sílé ní àìpẹ́ yìí.
And ye, O mountains of Israel, Your branch ye give out, and your fruits ye bear for My people Israel, For they have drawn near to come.
9 Èmi ń ṣe àníyàn fún ọ, èmi yóò sì fi rere wọ̀ ọ́; àwa yóò tu ọ́, àwa yóò sì gbìn ọ́,
For, lo, I [am] for you, and have turned to you, And ye have been tilled and sown.
10 èmi yóò sì sọ iye àwọn ènìyàn di púpọ̀ nínú rẹ àti gbogbo ilé Israẹli. Àwọn ìlú yóò di ibùgbé, a yóò sì tún àwọn ibi ìparun kọ́.
And I have multiplied on you men, All the house of Israel — all of it, And the cities have been inhabited, And the wastes are built.
11 Èmi yóò sọ iye ènìyàn àti ẹran dì púpọ̀ nínú yín, wọn yóò sì so èso, wọn yóò sì di púpọ̀ yanturu. Èmi yóò mú kí àwọn ènìyàn máa gbé nínú rẹ bí ti àtẹ̀yìnwá, èmi yóò sì mú kí o ṣe rere ju ìgbà àtijọ́ lọ. Nígbà náà ni ìwọ yóò mọ pé èmi ni Olúwa.
And I have multiplied on you man and beast, And they have multiplied and been fruitful, And I have caused you to dwell according to your former states, And I have done better than at your beginnings, And ye have known that I [am] Jehovah.
12 Èmi yóò mú kí àwọn ènìyàn, àní àwọn ènìyàn Israẹli, rìn lórí rẹ̀. Wọn yóò gbà ọ́, ìwọ yóò sì di ogún ìní wọn; ìwọ kì yóò sì gba àwọn ọmọ wọn lọ́wọ́ wọn mọ́.
And I have caused man to walk over you, — My people Israel, And they possess thee, and thou hast been to them for an inheritance, And thou dost add no more to bereave them.
13 “‘Èyí yìí ni ohun tí Olúwa Olódùmarè wí: Nítorí pé àwọn ènìyàn sọ fún ọ pé, “Ìwọ pa àwọn ènìyàn run, ìwọ sì gba àwọn ọmọ orílẹ̀-èdè lọ́wọ́ wọn,”
Thus said the Lord Jehovah: Because they are saying to you: A devourer of men [art] thou, And a bereaver of thy nations thou hast been,
14 nítorí náà ìwọ kì yóò pa àwọn ènìyàn run tàbí mú kì orílẹ̀-èdè di aláìlọ́mọ mọ́, ni Olúwa Olódùmarè wí.
Therefore, man thou devourest no more, And thy nations thou causest not to stumble any more, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah.
15 Èmi kì yóò mú ki ó gbọ́ ọ̀rọ̀ ẹ̀gàn láti ọ̀dọ̀ àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè mọ́, ìwọ kì yóò jìyà ọ̀rọ̀ ìfiṣẹ̀sín láti ọ̀dọ̀ àwọn ènìyàn tàbí mú kí orílẹ̀-èdè rẹ ṣubú, ni Olúwa Olódùmarè wí.’”
And I proclaim not unto thee any more the shame of the nations, And the reproach of peoples thou bearest no more, And thy nations stumble not any more, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah.'
16 Síwájú sí i ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa tọ̀ mí wá:
And there is a word of Jehovah unto me, saying,
17 “Ọmọ ènìyàn, nígbà tí àwọn ènìyàn Israẹli ń gbé ní ilẹ̀ wọn, wọ́n bà á jẹ́ nípa ìwà àti ìṣe wọn. Ìwà wọn dàbí nǹkan àkókò àwọn obìnrin ni ojú mi.
'Son of man, The house of Israel are dwelling on their land, And they defile it by their way and by their doings, As the uncleanness of a separated one hath their way been before Me.
18 Nítorí náà mo tú ìbínú mi jáde sórí wọn nítorí wọn ti ta ẹ̀jẹ̀ sílẹ̀ àti nítorí pé wọ́n ti fi ère wọn ba a jẹ́.
And I do pour out My fury upon them For the blood that they shed on the land, And with their idols they have defiled it.
19 Mo tú wọn ká sí àárín àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè, a sì fọ́n wọn ká sí àwọn ìlú; mo ṣe ìdájọ́ wọn gẹ́gẹ́ bí ìwà àti ìṣe wọn.
And I scatter them among nations, And they are spread through lands, According to their way, and according to their doings, I have judged them.
20 Gbogbo ibi tí wọ́n lọ ní àárín àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè ni wọn ti sọ orúkọ mímọ́ mi di aláìmọ́, nítorí tí a sọ nípa wọn pé, ‘Ìwọ̀nyí ni àwọn ènìyàn Olúwa, síbẹ̀ wọn ní láti fi ilẹ̀ náà sílẹ̀.’
And one goeth in unto the nations whither they have gone, And they pollute My holy name by saying to them, The people of Jehovah [are] these, And from His land they have gone forth.
21 Orúkọ mímọ́ mi jẹ́ mi lógún, èyí tí ilé Israẹli sọ di aláìmọ́ ni àárín àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè tí wọ́n ti lọ.
And I have pity on My holy name, That the house of Israel have polluted among nations whither they have gone in.
22 “Nítorí náà, sọ fún ilé Israẹli, ‘Èyí ni Olúwa Olódùmarè wí: Kì í ṣe nítorí rẹ, ìwọ ilé Israẹli, ni èmi yóò ṣe ṣe àwọn nǹkan wọ̀nyí, ṣùgbọ́n nítorí orúkọ mímọ́ mi, èyí ti ìwọ ti sọ di aláìmọ́ ní àárín àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè tí ìwọ ti lọ.
Therefore, say to the house of Israel, Thus said the Lord Jehovah: Not for your sake am I working, O house of Israel, But — for My holy name, That ye have polluted among nations whither ye have gone in.
23 Èmi yóò fi jíjẹ́ mímọ́ orúkọ ńlá mi, èyí tí a ti sọ di aláìmọ́ hàn ni àárín àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè, orúkọ tí ìwọ ti sọ di aláìmọ́ ni àárín wọn. Nígbà náà àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè yóò mọ̀ pé èmi ni Olúwa, ni Olúwa Olódùmarè wí, nígbà tí mo bá fi ara mi hàn ni mímọ́ nípasẹ̀ yín ni iwájú wọn.
And I have sanctified My great name, That is profaned among nations, That ye have polluted in your midst, And known have the nations that I [am] Jehovah, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah, In My being sanctified in you before your eyes.
24 “‘Nítorí èmi yóò mú yín jáde kúrò ni àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè náà; Èmi yóò ṣà yín jọ kúrò ní gbogbo àwọn ìlú náà; Èmi yóò sì mú yín padà sí ilẹ̀ ẹ̀yin tìkára yín.
And I have taken you out of the nations, And have gathered you out of all the lands, And I have brought you in unto your land,

And I have given to you a new heart, And a new spirit I give in your midst, And I have turned aside the heart of stone out of your flesh, And I have given to you a heart of flesh.
27 Èmi yóò fi ẹ̀mí mi sínú yín, èmi yóò sì mú ki ẹ tẹ̀lé àṣẹ mi, kí ẹ sì fiyèsí àti pa òfin mi mọ́.
And My Spirit I give in your midst, And I have done this, so that in My statutes ye walk, And My judgments ye keep, and have done them.
28 Ẹ̀yin yóò sì máa gbé ilẹ̀ náà tí mo ti fi fún àwọn baba ńlá yín; ẹ̀yin yóò sì jẹ́ ènìyàn mi èmi yóò sì jẹ́ Ọlọ́run yín.
And ye have dwelt in the land that I have given to your fathers, And ye have been to Me for a people, And I — I am to you for God.

And I have saved you from all your uncleannesses, And I have called unto the corn, and multiplied it, And I have put no famine upon you.
30 Èmi yóò sọ èso àwọn igi yín àti ohun ọ̀gbìn oko yín di púpọ̀, nítorí kí ẹ̀yin kí ó má ṣe jìyà ìdójútì mọ́ láàrín àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè náà nítorí ìyàn.
And I have multiplied the fruit of the tree, And the increase of the field, So that ye receive not any more a reproach of famine among nations.

And ye have remembered your ways that [are] evil, And your doings that [are] not good, And have been loathsome in your own faces, For your iniquities, and for your abominations.
32 Mo fẹ́ kí ẹ mọ̀ pé ń kò ṣe nǹkan wọ̀nyí nítorí yín, ni Olúwa Olódùmarè wí. Jẹ kí ojú kí ó tì yín, kí ẹ sì gba ẹ̀tẹ́ nítorí ìwà yín ẹ̀yin ilé Israẹli!
Not for your sake am I working, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah, Be it known to you, Be ashamed and confounded, because of your ways, O house of Israel.
33 “‘Èyí yìí ni ohun tí Olúwa Olódùmarè wí: Ní ọjọ́ tí mo wẹ̀ yín kúrò nínú ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ yín gbogbo, èmi yóò ṣe àtúnṣe àwọn ìlú yín, wọn yóò sì ṣe àtúnkọ́ ìwólulẹ̀.
Thus said the Lord Jehovah: In the day of My cleansing you from all your iniquities, I have caused the cities to be inhabited, And the wastes have been built,
34 Ilẹ̀ ahoro náà ní àwa yóò tún kọ́ ti kì yóò wà ní ahoro lójú àwọn tí ó ń gba ibẹ̀ kọjá mọ́.
And the desolate land is tilled, Instead of which it was a desolation before the eyes of every passer by,

And they have said: This land, that was desolated, Hath been as the garden of Eden, And the cities — the wasted, And the desolated, and the broken down, Fenced places have remained.

And known have the nations who are left round about you, That I Jehovah have built the thrown down, I have planted the desolated: I Jehovah have spoken, and I have done [it].
37 “Èyí yìí ni ohun tí Olúwa Olódùmarè sọ: Lẹ́ẹ̀kan sí i èmi yóò yí sí ilé Israẹli, èmi yóò sì ṣe èyí fún wọn. Èmi yóò mú kí àwọn ènìyàn yín pọ̀ lọ́pọ̀lọ́pọ̀ bí àgùntàn,

As a flock of holy ones, as a flock of Jerusalem, In her appointed seasons, So are the waste cities full of flocks of men, And they have known that I [am] Jehovah!'
