< Ezekiel 4 >

1 “Nísinsin yìí, ìwọ ọmọ ènìyàn, mú amọ̀ ṣíṣù kan, gbé e sí iwájú rẹ, kí o sì ya àwòrán ìlú Jerusalẹmu sí orí rẹ̀.
And thou, son of man, take thee a tile, and lay it before thee, and portray upon it a city, even Jerusalem.
2 Kí o sì dó tì í, kí o sì mọ ilé ìṣọ́ tì í, kí o sì mọ odi tì í, kí o sì gbé ogun sí i, kí o sì to òòlù yí i ká.
And lay siege against it, and build a tower against it, and cast up a mound against it; set a camp also against it, and place battering-rams against it round about.
3 Kí o sì fi àwo irin kan ṣe ògiri láàrín rẹ̀ àti ìlú yìí, kí o sì kọjú sí i, a ó sì dó tì í, ìwọ yóò sì dó tì í. Èyí yóò jẹ́ àmì fún ilé Israẹli.
Moreover, take thou an iron pan, and set it for a wall of iron between thee and the city; and set thy face against it, that it may be besieged; and lay siege against it. This shall be a sign to the house of Israel.
4 “Lẹ́yìn èyí, lọ fi ẹ̀gbẹ́ òsì dùbúlẹ̀, kí o sì gbé ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ ilé Israẹli lé orí ara rẹ. Iye ọjọ́ tí ìwọ bá fi sùn náà ni ìwọ yóò fi ru ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ wọn.
Lie thou also upon thy left side, and lay the iniquity of the house of Israel upon it. According to the number of days that thou shalt lie upon it, thou shalt bear their iniquity.
5 Nítorí mo fi iye ọdún tí wọ́n fi ṣẹ̀ fún ọ gẹ́gẹ́ bí iye ọjọ́ tí ìwọ yóò lò. Nítorí náà, ìwọ yóò ru ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ ilé Israẹli fún irinwó ọjọ́ ó dín mẹ́wàá.
But for the years of their iniquity I appoint thee days, three hundred and ninety days; so long shalt thou bear the iniquity of the house of Israel.
6 “Tí o bá parí èyí, tún fi ẹ̀gbẹ́ ọ̀tún dùbúlẹ̀ kí o sì ru ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ ilé Juda fún ogójì ọjọ́, nítorí pé ọjọ́ kan ló dúró fún ọdún kan.
And when thou hast brought them to an end, then lie upon thy right side, and bear the iniquity of the house of Judah forty days. I have appointed thee a day for a year.
7 Ìwọ dojúkọ ìgbógunti Jerusalẹmu, na ọwọ́ rẹ sí i, kí o sì sọ àsọtẹ́lẹ̀ nípa ìlú náà.
And set thy face against besieged Jerusalem, and uncover thine arm, and prophesy against it!
8 Èmi yóò dè ọ́ ní okùn dé bi pé ìwọ kò ní í le yírapadà láti ìhà ọ̀tún sí ìhà òsì títí tí ọjọ́ ìgbóguntì rẹ yóò fi pé.
And behold, I will lay bands upon thee, and thou shalt not turn thee from one side to another till thou hast ended the days of thy siege.
9 “Mú alikama, ọkà bàbà àti barle, erèé àti lẹntili, jéró àti ẹwẹ; fi àwọn nǹkan wọ̀nyí ṣe àkàrà tí ìwọ yóò máa jẹ nígbà tí ìwọ bá dùbúlẹ̀ fún irinwó ọjọ́ ó dín mẹ́wàá.
Take thou also wheat, and barley, and beans, and lentiles, and millet, and spelt, and put them into one vessel, and make thereof thy bread for the number of days that thou shalt lie upon thy side; three hundred and ninety days shalt thou eat thereof.
10 Wọn òsùwọ̀n ogún ṣékélì oúnjẹ tí ìwọ yóò máa jẹ lójoojúmọ́ kí o sì máa jẹ ẹ́ ní àkókò tí a ti yà sọ́tọ̀.
And thy food which thou eatest shall be by weight, twenty shekels a day; from time to time shalt thou eat it.
11 Bákan náà, wọn ìdámẹ́fà omi, kí ìwọ ó sì máa mú ní àkókò tí a yà sọ́tọ̀.
Thou shalt also drink water by measure, the sixth part of a hin; from time to time shalt thou drink.
12 Ìwọ yóò sì jẹ ẹ́ bí àkàrà barle; dín in ní ojú àwọn ènìyàn, ìgbẹ́ ènìyàn ni kí o fi dáná rẹ.”
Thou shalt also eat barley-cakes; and with dung that cometh out of man shalt thou bake them in their sight.
13 Olúwa sọ pé, “Báyìí ni àwọn ọmọ Israẹli yóò jẹ oúnjẹ àìmọ́ láàrín àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè tí èmi yóò lé wọn lọ.”
And Jehovah said, Even thus shall the sons of Israel eat their polluted food among the nations, whither I will drive them.
14 Nígbà náà ni mo wí pé, “Háà! Kò rí bẹ́ẹ̀ Olúwa Olódùmarè! Láti ìgbà èwe mi di ìsinsin yìí èmi kò tí ì sọ ara mi di aláìmọ́ rí. Èmi kò tí ì jẹ ohun tó kú fúnra rẹ̀ tàbí èyí tí ẹranko búburú fàya pẹ́rẹpẹ̀rẹ. Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ẹran àìmọ́ kan kò tí ì wọ ẹnu mi rí.”
Then said I: Ah! Lord Jehovah, behold, I have never been polluted; for from my youth until now have I not eaten that which died of itself, or was torn in pieces; neither hath unclean food come into my mouth.
15 Nígbà náà ló wí fún mi pé, “Wò ó, Èmi ó fún ọ ní ìgbẹ́ màlúù dípò ìgbẹ́ ènìyàn. Èmi yóò mú ki ó dín àkàrà rẹ lórí ìgbẹ́ màlúù dípò ìgbẹ́ ènìyàn.”
Then he said to me: Behold, I give thee cow's dung for man's dung; and with that shalt thou prepare thy food.
16 Ó sì tún sọ fún mi pé, “Ọmọ ènìyàn, èmi yóò dáwọ́ ìpèsè oúnjẹ dúró ní Jerusalẹmu. Ní pípín ni àwọn ènìyàn yóò máa pín oúnjẹ jẹ pẹ̀lú ìfọkànsọ́nà bẹ́ẹ̀ gẹ́gẹ́ ni wọn yóò máa mu omi pẹ̀lú ìdààmú,
And he said to me: Son of man, behold, I will break the staff of bread in Jerusalem, and they shall eat bread by weight and with care, and they shall drink water by measure and in amazement;
17 nítorí pé oúnjẹ àti omi yóò wọ́n. Wọn yóò máa wo ara wọn pẹ̀lú ìyanu, èmi yóò sì jẹ́ kí wọ́n ṣọ̀fọ̀ nítorí ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ wọn.
so that they shall be in want of bread and water, and be astonished one at another, and consume away for their iniquity.
