< Ezekiel 37 >
1 Ọwọ́ Olúwa wà lára mi, ó sì mú mi jáde pẹ̀lú ẹ̀mí Olúwa, ó mú kí ń wà ní àárín àfonífojì; ti o kún fún àwọn egungun.
The hand of the LORD was upon me, and carried me out in the spirit of the LORD, and set me down in the midst of the valley which [was] full of bones,
2 Ó mú mi lọ síwájú àti sẹ́yìn láàrín wọn, èmi sì rí ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ àwọn egungun ní orí ilẹ̀ àfonífojì, àwọn egungun tí ó gbẹ gan.
And caused me to pass by them around: and behold, [there were] very many in the open valley; and lo, [they were] very dry.
3 Olúwa sì bi mí léèrè, “Ọmọ ènìyàn, ǹjẹ́ àwọn egungun wọ̀nyí lè yípadà di àwọn ènìyàn bí?” Èmi sì wí pé, “Ìwọ Olúwa Olódùmarè, ìwọ nìkan ni o lè dáhùn sí ìbéèrè yìí.”
And he said to me, Son of man, can these bones live? and I answered, O Lord GOD, thou knowest.
4 Nígbà náà ni ó wí fún mi pé, “Sọtẹ́lẹ̀ sí àwọn egungun kí ó sì sọ fún wọn pé, ‘Ẹ̀yin egungun gbígbẹ gbọ́ ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa!
Again he said to me, Prophesy upon these bones, and say to them, O ye dry bones, hear the word of the LORD.
5 Èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa Olódùmarè wí fún àwọn egungun wọ̀nyí. Èmi yóò mú kí èémí wọ inú yín ẹ̀yin yóò sì wá di ààyè.
Thus saith the Lord GOD to these bones; Behold, I will cause breath to enter into you, and ye shall live:
6 Èmi yóò so iṣan ara mọ́ ọn yín, Èmi yóò sì mú kí ẹran-ara wá sí ara yín, Èmi yóò sì fi awọ ara bò yín, Èmi yóò sì fi èémí sínú yín, ẹ̀yin yóò sì wà ní ààyè. Nígbà náà ẹ̀yin yóò mọ̀ pé èmi ni Olúwa.’”
And I will lay sinews upon you, and will bring up flesh upon you, and cover you with skin, and put breath in you, and ye shall live; and ye shall know that I [am] the LORD.
7 Nítorí náà ni mo ṣe sọtẹ́lẹ̀ gẹ́gẹ́ bí a ti pa á láṣẹ fún mi. Bí mo sì ti ń sọtẹ́lẹ̀, ariwo wá, ìró tí ó kígbe sókè, àwọn egungun sì wà papọ̀, egungun sí egungun.
So I prophesied as I was commanded: and as I prophesied, there was a noise, and behold a shaking, and the bones came together, bone to his bone.
8 Mo wò ó, iṣan ara àti ẹran-ara farahàn lára wọn, awọ ara sì bò wọ́n, ṣùgbọ́n kò sí èémí nínú wọn.
And when I beheld, lo, the sinews and the flesh came up upon them, and the skin covered them above: but [there was] no breath in them.
9 Lẹ́yìn náà ni ó sọ fún mi pé, “Sọtẹ́lẹ̀ sí èémí; sọtẹ́lẹ̀, ọmọ ènìyàn, kí ó sì sọ fún un pé, ‘Èyí yìí ni ohun tí Olúwa Olódùmarè wí: wá láti atẹ́gùn mẹ́rẹ̀ẹ̀rin, ìwọ èémí, kí ó sì mí èémí sínú àwọn tí a pa wọ̀nyí, kí wọn kí ó lè wà ní ààyè.’”
Then said he to me, Prophesy to the wind, prophesy, son of man, and say to the wind, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Come from the four winds, O breath, and breathe upon these slain, that they may live.
10 Nítorí náà, mo sọtẹ́lẹ̀ gẹ́gẹ́ bí ó ṣe pa á láṣẹ fún mi, èémí sì wọ inú wọn; wọ́n di alààyè, wọ́n sì dìde dúró lórí ẹsẹ̀ wọn—pẹ̀lú ìhámọ́ra tí ó pọ̀.
So I prophesied as he commanded me, and the breath came into them, and they lived, and stood up upon their feet, an exceeding great army.
11 Lẹ́yìn náà ó sọ fún mi: “Ọmọ ènìyàn, àwọn egungun wọ̀nyí ni gbogbo ìdílé Israẹli. Wọ́n sọ wí pé, ‘Egungun wa ti gbẹ ìrètí wa sì ti lọ; a ti gé wa kúrò.’
Then he said to me, Son of man, these bones are the whole house of Israel: behold, they say, Our bones are dried, and our hope is lost: we are cut off for our parts.
12 Nítorí náà sọtẹ́lẹ̀, kí o sì sọ fun wọn pé, ‘Èyí yìí ni ohun tí Olúwa Olódùmarè sọ: Ẹ̀yin ènìyàn mi, Èmi yóò ṣí àwọn ibojì yín, èmi yóò sì mú yín wá si ilẹ̀ Israẹli.
Therefore prophesy and say to them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, O my people, I will open your graves, and cause you to come out of your graves, and bring you into the land of Israel.
13 Ẹ̀yin o sì mọ̀ èmi ni Olúwa, nígbà tí èmi bá ti ṣí ibojì yín, ẹ̀yin ènìyàn mi, ti èmi bá si mú un yín dìde kúrò nínú ibojì yín.
And ye shall know that I [am] the LORD, when I have opened your graves, O my people, and brought you out of your graves,
14 Èmi yóò fi èémí mi sínú yín, ẹ̀yin yóò sì yè, èmi yóò sì mú kí ẹ fi lélẹ̀ ní ilẹ̀ ẹ̀yin tìkára yín. Nígbà náà ẹ̀yin yóò mọ̀ pé Olúwa ti sọ̀rọ̀, èmi sì ti ṣe ni Olúwa wí.’”
And shall put my spirit in you, and ye shall live, and I shall place you in your own land: then shall ye know that I the LORD have spoken [it], and performed [it], saith the LORD.
15 Ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa tọ̀ mi wá:
The word of the LORD came again to me, saying,
16 “Ọmọ ènìyàn, mú igi pátákó kan kí ó sì kọ̀wé sí ara rẹ̀, ‘Tí ó jẹ́ ti Juda àti ti Israẹli tí ó ní àṣepọ̀ pẹ̀lú rẹ̀.’ Lẹ́yìn náà, kí ó mú igi pátákò mìíràn kí ó sì kọ̀wé sí ara rẹ̀, ‘Tí ó jẹ́ ti tí Josẹfu (tí ó túmọ̀ sí ti Efraimu) àti gbogbo ilé Israẹli tí ó ni àṣepọ̀ pẹ̀lú rẹ̀.’
Moreover, thou son of man, take thee one stick, and write upon it, For Judah, and for the children of Israel his companions: then take another stick, and write upon it, For Joseph, the stick of Ephraim, and [for] all the house of Israel his companions:
17 So wọ́n papọ̀ sí ara igi kan nítorí náà wọn yóò di ọ̀kan ní ọwọ́ rẹ.
And join them one to another into one stick; and they shall become one in thy hand.
18 “Nígbà tí àwọn ara ìlú rẹ bá béèrè lọ́wọ́ rẹ pé, ‘Ṣé ìwọ kò ní sọ ohun tí èyí túmọ̀ sí fún wa?’
And when the children of thy people shall speak to thee, saying, Wilt thou not show us what thou [meanest] by these?
19 Sọ fún wọn pé, ‘Èyí yìí ni ohun tí Olúwa Olódùmarè wí: Èmi yóò gba igi Josẹfu—èyí tí ó wà ní ọwọ́ Efraimu—àti ti ẹ̀yà Israẹli tí ó parapọ̀ mọ́ ọn, kí ó sì só papọ̀ mọ́ igi Juda, láti sọ wọ́n di igi kan ṣoṣo, wọn yóò sì di ọ̀kan ní ọwọ́ mi.’
Say to them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I will take the stick of Joseph, which [is] in the hand of Ephraim, and the tribes of Israel his fellows, and will put them with him, [even] with the stick of Judah, and make them one stick, and they shall be one in my hand.
20 Gbé igi pátákó tí ó kọ nǹkan sí i sókè ní iwájú wọn,
And the sticks on which thou writest shall be in thy hand before their eyes.
21 kí ó sì sọ fún wọn pé, ‘Èyí yìí ni ohun tí Olúwa Olódùmarè wí: Èmi yóò mú Israẹli jáde kúrò ní àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè tí wọ́n ti lọ. Èmi yóò ṣà wọ́n jọ pọ̀ láti gbogbo agbègbè, èmi yóò sì mú wọn padà sí ilẹ̀ ara wọn.
And say to them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I will take the children of Israel from among the heathen, whither they are gone, and will gather them on every side, and bring them into their own land:
22 Èmi yóò ṣe wọ́n ní orílẹ̀-èdè kan ní ilẹ̀ náà, ní orí òkè Israẹli, ọba kan ni yóò wà lórí gbogbo wọn, wọn kì yóò sì jẹ́ orílẹ̀-èdè méjì mọ́, tàbí kí a pín wọn sí ìjọba méjì.
And I will make them one nation in the land upon the mountains of Israel; and one king shall be king to them all: and they shall be no more two nations, neither shall they be divided into two kingdoms any more at all:
23 Wọn kì yóò sì tún fi àwọn òrìṣà wọn ba ara wọn jẹ́ mọ́, tàbí ohun ìríra wọn, tàbí ohun ìrékọjá wọn: ṣùgbọ́n èmi yóò gbà wọn là kúrò nínú gbogbo ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ àgàbàgebè wọn, èmi yóò sì wẹ̀ wọn mọ́. Wọn yóò jẹ́ ènìyàn mi, Èmi yóò sì jẹ́ Ọlọ́run wọn.
Neither shall they defile themselves any more with their idols, nor with their detestable things, nor with any of their transgressions: but I will save them out of all their dwelling-places, in which they have sinned, and will cleanse them: so shall they be my people, and I will be their God.
24 “‘Dafidi ìránṣẹ́ mi ni yóò jẹ ọba lórí wọn, gbogbo wọn yóò sì ní olùṣọ àgùntàn kan. Wọn yóò sì tẹ̀lé òfin mi, wọn yóò sì ṣe àníyàn láti pa àṣẹ mi mọ́.
And David my servant [shall be] king over them; and they all shall have one shepherd: they shall also walk in my judgments, and observe my statutes, and do them.
25 Wọn yóò gbé ní ilẹ̀ tí mo fún Jakọbu ìránṣẹ́ mi, ilẹ̀ tí àwọn baba yín ń gbé. Àwọn àti àwọn ọmọ wọn àti àwọn ọmọ ọmọ wọn ni yóò máa gbé ibẹ̀ láéláé, ìránṣẹ́ mi Dafidi ni yóò jẹ́ Ọmọ-aládé wọn láéláé.
And they shall dwell in the land that I have given to Jacob my servant, in which your fathers have dwelt, and they shall dwell in it, [even] they, and their children, and their children's children for ever: and my servant David [shall be] their prince for ever.
26 Èmi yóò dá májẹ̀mú àlàáfíà pẹ̀lú wọn, yóò sì jẹ́ májẹ̀mú títí ayérayé. Èmi yóò gbé wọn kalẹ̀, èmi yóò sì sọ wọ́n di púpọ̀ ní iye, èmi yóò sì gbé ilé mímọ́ mi kalẹ̀ ní àárín wọn títí láé.
Moreover I will make a covenant of peace with them; it shall be an everlasting covenant with them: and I will place them, and multiply them, and will set my sanctuary in the midst of them for evermore.
27 Ibùgbé mí yóò wà pẹ̀lú wọn, Èmi yóò jẹ́ Ọlọ́run wọn, wọn yóò sì jẹ́ ènìyàn mi.
My tabernacle also shall be with them: and I will be their God, and they shall be my people.
28 Nígbà náà ni àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè yóò mọ̀ pé, Èmi Olúwa sọ Israẹli di mímọ́, nígbà tí ibi mímọ́ mi bá wà ní àárín wọn títí ayérayé.’”
And the heathen shall know that I the LORD do sanctify Israel, when my sanctuary shall be in the midst of them for ever.
