Ezekiel 9

1 Mo gbọ́ ti ó kígbe ní ohùn rara pé, “Mú àwọn olùṣọ́ ìlú súnmọ́ itòsí, kí olúkúlùkù wọn mú ohun ìjà olóró lọ́wọ́.”

He cried also in my ears with a loud voice, saying, Cause them that have charge over the city to draw near, even every man [with] his destroying weapon in his hand.

2 Lójú ẹsẹ̀ ni ọkùnrin mẹ́fà jáde láti ẹnu-ọ̀nà òkè tó kọjú sí ìhà àríwá, olúkúlùkù pẹ̀lú ohun ìjà olóró lọ́wọ́ wọn. Ọkùnrin kan tó wọ aṣọ funfun gbòò wa láàrín wọn, pẹ̀lú ohun ìkọ̀wé lẹ́gbẹ̀ẹ́ rẹ̀. Gbogbo wọn sì dúró lẹ́gbẹ̀ẹ́ pẹpẹ idẹ.

And behold, six men came from the way of the higher gate, which lieth towards the north, and every man a slaughter-weapon in his hand; and one man among them [was] clothed with linen, with a writer's inkhorn by his side: and they went in and stood beside the brazen altar.

3 Ògo Ọlọ́run Israẹli sì gòkè kúrò lórí kérúbù, níbi tó wà tẹ́lẹ̀ lọ sí ibi ìloro tẹmpili. Nígbà náà ni Olúwa pe ọkùnrin tó wọ aṣọ funfun náà tí ó sì ní ohun ìkọ̀wé lẹ́gbẹ̀ẹ́ rẹ̀.

And the glory of the God of Israel had gone up from the cherub on which he was, to the threshhold of the house. And he called to the man clothed with linen, who [had] the writer's inkhorn by his side;

4 Ó sì sọ fún un pé, “La àárín ìlú Jerusalẹmu já, kí ìwọ sì fi àmì síwájú orí gbogbo àwọn tó ń kẹ́dùn, tó sì ń sọkún nítorí ohun ìríra tí wọn ń ṣe láàrín rẹ̀.”

And the LORD said to him, Go through the midst of the city, through the midst of Jerusalem, and set a mark upon the foreheads of the men that sigh and that cry for all the abominations that are done in the midst of it.

5 Bí mo ṣe ń fetí sí èyí, O tún sọ fún àwọn yòókù pé, “Tẹ̀lé ọkùnrin náà lọ sí àárín ìlú láti pa láì dá sí àti láì ṣàánú rárá.

And to the others he said in my hearing, Go ye after him through the city, and smite: let not your eye spare, neither have ye pity:

6 Ẹ pa arúgbó àti ọ̀dọ́mọkùnrin, ẹ pa ọlọ́mọge, obìnrin àti ọmọ kéékèèké, ṣùgbọ́n ẹ má ṣe fi ọwọ́ kan àwọn tó ní àmì. Ẹ bẹ̀rẹ̀ láti ibi mímọ́.” Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni wọ́n sì bẹ̀rẹ̀ láti ọ̀dọ̀ àwọn àgbàgbà tó wà níwájú tẹmpili.

Slay utterly old [and] young, both maids, and little children, and women: but come not near any man upon whom [is] the mark; and begin at my sanctuary. Then they began at the elderly men who [were] before the house.

7 Nígbà náà lo sọ fún wọn pé, “Ẹ sọ tẹmpili náà di àìmọ́, kí òkú sì kún àgbàlá náà. Ẹ lọ!” Wọ́n jáde síta, wọ́n sì bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí í pa ènìyàn láàrín ìlú.

And he said to them, Defile the house, and fill the courts with the slain: go ye forth. And they went forth, and slew in the city.

8 Èmi nìkan ló ṣẹ́kù nígbà tí wọ́n lọ pa àwọn ènìyàn, mo dójú mi bolẹ̀, mo kígbe pé, “Háà! Olúwa Olódùmarè! Ìwọ yóò ha pa ìyókù Israẹli nípa dída ìbínú gbígbóná rẹ sórí Jerusalẹmu?”

And it came to pass, while they were slaying them, and I was left, that I fell upon my face, and cried, and said, Ah Lord GOD! wilt thou destroy all the residue of Israel in thy pouring out of thy fury upon Jerusalem?

9 Ó dá mi lóhùn pé, “Ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ ilé Israẹli àti Juda pọ gidigidi; ilé wọn kún fún ìtàjẹ̀ sílẹ̀ àti àìṣòótọ́. Wọ́n ní, ‘Olúwa tí kọ ilẹ̀ náà sílẹ̀; Olúwa kò sì rí wa.’

Then said he to me, The iniquity of the house of Israel and Judah [is] exceeding great, and the land [is] full of blood, and the city full of perverseness: for they say, The LORD hath forsaken the earth, and the LORD seeth not.

10 Nítorí náà, èmi kò ní wò wọ́n pẹ̀lú àánú, èmi kò sì ní dá wọn sí, ṣùgbọ́n Èmi yóò dá ohun tí wọ́n ti ṣe padà sórí wọn.”

And as for me also, my eye shall not spare, neither will I have pity, [but] I will recompense their way upon their head.

11 Ọkùnrin tí ó wọ aṣọ ọ̀gbọ̀, tí ó ní ìwo tàdáwà ní ẹ̀gbẹ́ rẹ̀ ròyìn pé, “Mo ti ṣe gẹ́gẹ́ bí ìwọ ti pàṣẹ fún mi.”

And behold, the man clothed with linen, who [had] the inkhorn by his side, reported the matter, saying, I have done as thou hast commanded me.
