Ezekiel 47

1 Ọkùnrin náà mú mi padà lọ sí àbáwọlé tẹmpili náà, mo sì rí omi tí ó ń tú jáde láti abẹ́ ìloro tẹmpili náà sí apá ìhà ìlà-oòrùn (nítorí tẹmpili náà dojúkọ ìhà ìlà-oòrùn). Omi náà ń tú jáde sí ìsàlẹ̀ láti abẹ́, ní ìhà gúúsù tẹmpili náà, ní ìhà gúúsù pẹpẹ.

Then, [in the vision], the man brought me back to the entrance of the temple. There I saw water flowing out from under the entrance, flowing toward the east. The water was flowing from under the south side of the entrance, south of the altar.

2 Ó wá mú mi gba ojú ọ̀nà àríwá jáde, ó sì mú mi yí ìta ojú ọ̀nà ìta tí ó dojúkọ ìhà ìlà-oòrùn, omi náà sì ń sàn láti ìhà gúúsù wá.

Then the man brought me out of the inner courtyard through the north entryway, and then he led me around to the outer entryway on the east side [of the inner courtyard].

3 Bí ọkùnrin náà ti lọ sí apá ìhà ìlà-oòrùn pẹ̀lú okùn wíwọ̀n nǹkan lọ́wọ́ rẹ̀, ó wọn ẹgbẹ̀rún ìgbọ̀nwọ́, ó sì mú mi gba ibi odò kan tí kò jì jù kókósẹ̀ lọ.

As the man continued walking toward the east, he had a measuring line in his hand. He measured off (1,750 feet/530 meters), and then led me through water that covered my ankles.

4 Ó sì wọn ẹgbẹ̀rún ìgbọ̀nwọ́ mìíràn kúrò, ó sì mú mi gba ibi odò tí ó jì ní ìwọ̀n orúnkún. Ó tún wọn ẹgbẹ̀rún márùn-ún ìgbọ̀nwọ́ mìíràn kúrò, ó sì mú mi gba odò tí ó dé ìbàdí.

Then he measured off another (1,750 feet/530 meters) and led me through water that was up to my knees. Then he measured off another (1,750 feet/530 meters) and led me through water that was up to my waist.

5 Ó wọn ẹgbẹ̀rún ìgbọ̀nwọ́ mìíràn kúrò, ṣùgbọ́n nísinsin yìí odò tí ń kò lè kọjá rẹ̀ ni, nítorí pé odò tí ó kún, ó sì jì tó èyí tí wọ́n le lúwẹ̀ẹ́ nínú rẹ̀ odò tí ẹnikẹ́ni kò le dá kọjá ni.

Then he measured off another (1,750 feet/530 meters) and led me through water that had become a river that I could not cross, because the water had risen [very high, with the result that] it would be necessary to swim across it. It was a river that no one could cross [by walking across it].

6 Ó bi mí léèrè pé, “Ọmọ ènìyàn, ǹjẹ́ o rí èyí?” Lẹ́yìn náà, ó mú mi padà sí etí odò.

Then he said to me, “You human, think carefully about what you have seen.”

7 Nígbà tí mo dé ibẹ̀, mo rí ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ igi ní ẹ̀gbẹ́ méjèèjì odò.

Then he led me to the bank of that river. There I saw many trees growing on each side of the river.

8 Ó sọ fún mi pé, “Odò yìí ń tú jáde sí ìhà ìlà-oòrùn, wọ́n sì ń sọ̀kalẹ̀ lọ sí pẹ̀tẹ́lẹ̀, wọ́n sì wọ inú Òkun lọ, a sì mú omi wọn láradá.

He said to me, “This water flows east and down into the [Dead] Sea. And when it flows into the [Dead] Sea, its salty water becomes fresh.

9 Àwọn ohun alààyè tí ó ń rákò yóò máa gbé ní ibikíbi tí odò ti ń sàn. Ẹja yóò pọ̀ ni ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀, nítorí pé odò ń sàn síbẹ̀, ó sì mú kí omi iyọ̀ tutù nini; nítorí náà níbi tí omi ti ń sàn, gbogbo nǹkan ni yóò wà ni ààyè.

Wherever the river flows, there will be lots of animals and fish. And there will be lots of fish in the [Dead] Sea, because the water that flows into it will cause the salt water to become (fresh water/water that people can drink). Wherever the river flows, everything [alongside it] will flourish.

10 Àwọn apẹja yóò dúró ní etí bèbè odò; láti En-Gedi títí dé En-Eglaimu ààyè yóò wa láti tẹ́ àwọ̀n wọn sílẹ̀. Oríṣìíríṣìí ẹja ni yóò wà gẹ́gẹ́ bí ẹja omi Òkun ńlá.

Fishermen will stand along the bank [of the Dead Sea to catch fish]. From En-Gedi [on the western side] to En-Eglaim [on the eastern side] there will be places [for fishermen] to spread their fishing nets. There will be many kinds of fish, like there are in the Mediterranean Sea.

11 Ṣùgbọ́n ẹrẹ̀ àti àbàtà kò ní tòrò; àwa yóò fi wọn sílẹ̀ fún iyọ̀.

But the swamps and marshes [along the shore] will not become fresh; they will be left to the people to use make salt.

12 Àwọn igi eléso ní oríṣìíríṣìí ni yóò máa hù ní bèbè odò ní ìhà ìhín àti ní ìhà ọ̀hún. Ewé wọn kì yóò sì rọ, bẹ́ẹ̀ ní èso wọn kì yóò run, wọn yóò máa ṣe èso tuntun rẹ̀ ní oṣù nítorí pé omi láti ibi mímọ́ ń sàn sí wọn. Èso wọn yóò sì jẹ́ fún jíjẹ àti ewé wọn fún ìwòsàn.”

Many kinds of fruit trees will grow on both sides of the river. Their leaves will not wither, and they will always have fruit. They will bear fruit every month, because [they will continually get water from] the water [that comes] from the temple. Their fruit will be good to eat and their leaves will be [good] for healing.”

13 Èyí yìí ní ohun tí Olúwa Olódùmarè wí: “Ìwọ̀nyí ni àwọn ààlà tí ìwọ yóò fi pín ilẹ̀ náà gẹ́gẹ́ bí ogún ìní ní àárín àwọn ẹ̀yà méjìlá Israẹli, pẹ̀lú ìpín méjì fún Josẹfu.

[In the vision], Yahweh [also] said this to me: “Here is a list of the twelve tribes of Israel and the territory that each tribe must receive. [The descendants of] Joseph will receive two portions; [the tribe of Levi will not receive any].

14 Ìwọ yóò pín ilẹ̀ náà déédé ní àárín wọn. Nítorí pé mo búra nípa nína ọwọ́ sókè láti fi fún àwọn baba ńlá yin, ilẹ̀ yìí yóò di ogún ìní yín.

I lifted up my arm and solemnly declared to your ancestors that I would give you this land to own permanently. [So divide the land equally among all of the other tribes].

15 “Èyí yìí ni yóò jẹ́ ààlà ilẹ̀ náà: “Ní ìhà àríwá yóò lọ láti omi Òkun ńlá ní ibi ọ̀nà Hetiloni gbà tí Hamati lọ sí Sedadi,

These will be the boundaries of the land: On the north side, [it will extend] from the Mediterranean Sea east along the road to Hethlon, past Lebo-Hamath to Zedad,

16 Berota àti Sibraimu, èyí tí ó wà ní ààlà láàrín Damasku àti Hamati títí dé Hasari Hatikonu, èyí tí ó wà ní agbègbè Haurani.

to [the cities of] Berothah and Sibraim, which are on the border between Damascus and Hamath. [From there the boundary will extend] as far [the city of] Hazer-Hatticon, which is on the border of the Hauran [region].

17 Ààlà yóò fẹ̀ láti Òkun lọ sí Hasari Enanu, ní apá ààlà ti Damasku, pẹ̀lú ààlà tí Hamati lọ sí apá àríwá. Èyí ni yóò jẹ́ ààlà ní apá ìhà àríwá.

So the boundary will extend from the [Mediterranean] Sea to [the city of] Hazar-Enan on the border between Hamath to the north and Damascus [to the south]. That will be the northern boundary.

18 Ní ìhà ìlà-oòrùn ààlà yóò wá sí àárín Haurani àti Damasku, lọ sí apá Jordani láàrín Gileadi àti ilẹ̀ Israẹli, títí dé Òkun, àti títí dé Tamari. Èyí ní yóò jẹ́ ààlà ìlà-oòrùn.

On the east side, the boundary [will extend] between Hauran and Damascus, [south] along the Jordan [River] between the Gilead [region] and the land of Israel, along the Dead Sea as far as [the town of] Tamar. That will be the eastern boundary.

19 Ní ìhà gúúsù yóò lọ láti Tamari títí dé ibi omi Meriba Kadeṣi, lẹ́yìn náà ni ìhà Wadi tí Ejibiti lọ sí Òkun ńlá. Èyí ni yóò jẹ́ ààlà gúúsù.

On the south side, the boundary will extend from Tamar [southwest] to the springs near [the town of] Meribah-Kadesh. Then [the boundary will extend west] along the dry riverbed [at the border] of Egypt to the Mediterranean Sea. That will be the southern boundary.

20 Ní ìhà ìwọ̀-oòrùn, Òkun ńlá ni yóò jẹ́ ààlà títí dé ibi kan ni òdìkejì lẹ́bàá Hamati. Èyí yìí ni yóò jẹ ààlà ìhà ìwọ̀-oòrùn.

On the west side, the boundary will be the Mediterranean Sea, north to near Lebo-Hamath.

21 “Ìwọ ní láti pín ilẹ̀ yìí ní àárín ara yín gẹ́gẹ́ bí àwọn ẹ̀yà Israẹli.

You must distribute this land among yourselves, among the tribes of Israel.

22 Ìwọ yóò pín gẹ́gẹ́ bí ìní fún ara yín àti fún àwọn àjèjì tí ó ń gbé ní àárín yín tí ó sì ní àwọn ọmọ. Ìwọ yóò sì ṣe sí wọn gẹ́gẹ́ bí ọmọ ìbílẹ̀ àwọn ará Israẹli; papọ̀ mọ́ yin ni kí ẹ pín ìní fún wọn ní àárín àwọn ẹ̀yà Israẹli.

You must allot the land to be a permanent possession for yourselves, and [also] to be a permanent possession of any foreigners who are living among you and raising their children. You must consider those people to be like you who were born Israelis, and they must be allotted land among the tribes of Israel.

23 Ní àárín gbogbo ẹ̀yà tí àwọn àlejò ń gbé; wọn gbọdọ̀ fi ìní tirẹ̀ fún un,” ní Olúwa Olódùmarè wí.

Wherever foreigners are living, you must give them some land to belong to them permanently. [That is what I], Yahweh the Lord, declare.”
