< 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.
“You also, son of man, take a tile, and lay it before yourself, and portray on 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.
Lay siege against it, build forts against it, and cast up a mound against it. Also set camps against it and plant battering rams against it all around.
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.
Take for yourself an iron pan and set it for a wall of iron between you and the city. Then set your face towards it. It will be besieged, and you shall 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.
“Moreover lie on your left side, and lay the iniquity of the house of Israel on it. According to the number of the days that you shall lie on it, you shall 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.
For I have appointed the years of their iniquity to be to you a number of days, even three hundred and ninety days. So you shall 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.
“Again, when you have accomplished these, you shall lie on your right side, and shall bear the iniquity of the house of Judah. I have appointed forty days, each day for a year, to you.
7 Ìwọ dojúkọ ìgbógunti Jerusalẹmu, na ọwọ́ rẹ sí i, kí o sì sọ àsọtẹ́lẹ̀ nípa ìlú náà.
You shall set your face towards the siege of Jerusalem, with your arm uncovered; and you shall 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.
Behold, I put ropes on you, and you shall not turn yourself from one side to the other, until you have accomplished the days of your 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 for yourself also wheat, barley, beans, lentils, millet, and spelt, and put them in one vessel. Make bread of it. According to the number of the days that you will lie on your side, even three hundred and ninety days, you shall eat of it.
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.
Your food which you shall eat shall be by weight, twenty shekels a day. From time to time you shall eat it.
11 Bákan náà, wọn ìdámẹ́fà omi, kí ìwọ ó sì máa mú ní àkókò tí a yà sọ́tọ̀.
You shall drink water by measure, the sixth part of a hin. From time to time you shall drink.
12 Ìwọ yóò sì jẹ ẹ́ bí àkàrà barle; dín in ní ojú àwọn ènìyàn, ìgbẹ́ ènìyàn ni kí o fi dáná rẹ.”
You shall eat it as barley cakes, and you shall bake it in their sight with dung that comes out of man.”
13 Olúwa sọ pé, “Báyìí ni àwọn ọmọ Israẹli yóò jẹ oúnjẹ àìmọ́ láàrín àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè tí èmi yóò lé wọn lọ.”
The LORD said, “Even thus will the children of Israel eat their bread unclean, amongst the nations where 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 I said, “Ah Lord GOD! Behold, my soul has not been polluted; for from my youth up even until now I have not eaten of that which dies of itself, or is torn of animals. No abominable meat has 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 have given you cow’s dung for man’s dung, and you shall prepare your bread on it.”
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,
Moreover he said to me, “Son of man, behold, I will break the staff of bread in Jerusalem. They will eat bread by weight, and with fearfulness. They will drink water by measure, and in dismay;
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.
that they may lack bread and water, be dismayed one with another, and pine away in their iniquity.
