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.”

And He crieth in mine ears — a loud voice — saying, 'Drawn near have inspectors of the city, and each 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 lo, six men are coming from the way of the upper gate, that is facing the north, and each his slaughter-weapon in his hand, and one man in their midst is clothed with linen, and a scribe's inkhorn at his loins, and they come in, and stand near 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 honour of the God of Israel hath gone up from off the cherub, on which it hath been, unto the threshold of the house.

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 He calleth unto the man who is clothed with linen, who hath the scribe's inkhorn at his loins, and Jehovah saith unto him, 'Pass on into the midst of the city, into the midst of Jerusalem, and thou hast made a mark on the foreheads of the men who are sighing and who are groaning for all the abominations that are done in its midst.'

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 mine ears, 'Pass on into the city after him, and smite; your eye doth not pity, nor do ye spare;

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.

aged, young man, and virgin, and infant, and women, ye do slay — to destruction; and against any man on whom [is] the mark ye do not go nigh, and from My sanctuary ye begin.'

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 they begin among the aged men who [are] before the house, and He saith unto them, 'Defile the house, and fill the courts with the wounded, go forth.' And they have gone forth and have smitten 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 cometh to pass, as they are smiting, and I — I am left — that I fall on my face, and cry, and say, 'Ah, Lord Jehovah, art Thou destroying all the remnant of Israel, in Thy pouring out Thy wrath on 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.’

And He saith unto me, 'The iniquity of the house of Israel and Judah [is] very very great, and the land is full of blood, and the city hath been full of perverseness, for they have said: Jehovah hath forsaken the land, and Jehovah is not seeing.

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 I also, Mine eye doth not pity, nor do I spare; their way on their own head I have put.'

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 lo, the man clothed with linen, at whose loins [is] the inkhorn, is bringing back word, saying, 'I have done as Thou hast commanded me.'
