Ezekiel 3

1 And he said to me, Son of man, take this roll for your food, and go and say my words to the children of Israel.

Sinabi niya sa akin, “Anak ng tao, kainin mo kung ano ang natagpuan mo! Kainin mo itong kasulatang binalumbon, pagkatapos ay humayo sa sambahayan ng Israel at magsalita.”

2 And, on my opening my mouth, he made me take the roll as food.

Kaya ibinuka ko ang aking bibig, at ipinakain niya sa akin ang kasulatang binalumbon.

3 And he said to me, Son of man, let your stomach make a meal of it and let your inside be full of this roll which I am giving you. Then I took it, and it was sweet as honey in my mouth.

Sinabi niya sa akin, “Anak ng tao, pakainin mo ang iyong sikmura at busugin ang iyong tiyan sa pamamagitan ng kasulatang binalumbong ito na ibinigay ko sa iyo!” Kaya kinain ko ito, at ito ay kasintamis ng pulot-pukyutan sa aking bibig.

4 And he said to me, Son of man, go now to the children of Israel, and say my words to them.

Pagkatapos, sinabi niya sa akin, “Anak ng tao, pumunta ka sa sambahayan ng Israel at sabihin sa kanila ang aking mga salita.

5 For you are not sent to a people whose talk is strange and whose language is hard, but to the children of Israel;

Sapagkat hindi ka isinugo sa mga taong may kakaibang salita o isang mahirap na wika, kundi sa sambahayan ng Israel—

6 Not to a number of peoples whose talk is strange and whose language is hard and whose words are not clear to you. Truly, if I sent you to them they would give ear to you.

hindi sa makapangyarihang bansang may kakaibang salita o mahirap na wika, na ang mga salita ay hindi mo maintindihan! Kung isusugo kita sa kanila, makikinig sila sa iyo!

7 But the children of Israel will not give ear to you; for they have no mind to give ear to me: for all the children of Israel have a hard brow and a stiff heart.

Ngunit ang sambahayan ng Israel ay hindi nahahandang makinig sa iyo, sapagkat sila ay hindi nahahandang makinig sa akin. Kaya lahat ng sambahayang Israel ay mataas ang kilay at matigas ang puso.

8 See, I have made your face hard against their faces, and your brow hard against their brows.

Masdan mo! Ang iyong mukha ay ginawa kong kasintigas ng kanilang mga mukha at ang iyong kilay ay kasintigas ng kanilang mga kilay.

9 Like a diamond harder than rock I have made your brow: have no fear of them and do not be overcome by their looks, for they are an uncontrolled people.

Ginawa kong tulad ng isang diamante ang iyong kilay, mas matigas kaysa pingkian! Huwag kang matakot sa kanila o panghinaan ng loob sa pamamagitan ng kanilang mga mukha, yamang sila ay mga suwail na sambahayan.”

10 Then he said to me, Son of man, take into your heart all my words which I am about to say to you, and let your ears be open to them.

At sinabi niya sa akin, “Anak ng tao, ang lahat ng mga salitang ipinahayag ko sa iyo—ilagay mo ang mga ito sa iyong puso at pakinggan mo sila sa pamamagitan ng iyong mga tainga!

11 And go now to those who have been taken away as prisoners, to the children of your people, and say to them, This is what the Lord has said; if they give ear or if they do not.

At pumunta ka sa mga bihag, sa iyong mga kababayan, at magsalita ka sa kanila. Sabihin mo sa kanila, 'Ito ang sinasabi ng Panginoong Yahweh,' makinig man sila o hindi.”

12 Then I was lifted up by the wind, and at my back the sound of a great rushing came to my ears when the glory of the Lord was lifted up from his place.

Pagkatapos, itinaas ako ng Espiritu, at nakarinig ako ng tunog sa aking likuran na tulad ng isang malakas na lindol, na nagsasabi, “Pagpalain ang kaluwalhatian ni Yahweh mula sa kaniyang lugar!”

13 And there was the sound of the wings of the living beings touching one another, and the sound of the wheels at their side, the sound of a great rushing.

Kaya narinig ko ang tunog ng mga pakpak ng mga buhay na mga nilalang habang sumasag sa isa't isa, at ang tunog ng mga gulong na nasa kanila, at ang tunog ng isang malakas na lindol!

14 And the wind, lifting me up, took me away: and I went in the heat of my spirit, and the hand of the Lord was strong on me.

Itinaas ako ng Espiritu at dinala ako palayo; at pumunta akong may kapaitan sa galit ng aking espiritu, sapagkat ubod ng lakas na nakadiin sa akin ang kamay ni Yahweh!

15 Then I came to those who had been taken away as prisoners, who were at Telabib by the river Chebar, and I was seated among them full of wonder for seven days.

Kaya pumunta ako sa mga bihag sa Tel Abib na nakatira sa tabi ng Ilog Kebar, at nananatili ako roon sa loob ng pitong araw, punong-puno ako ng pagkamangha kasama nila.

16 And at the end of seven days, the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

At nangyari na makalipas ang pitong araw ay dumating sa akin ang salita ni Yahweh at sinabi,

17 Son of man, I have made you a watchman for the children of Israel: so give ear to the word of my mouth, and give them word from me of their danger.

Anak ng tao, ginawa kitang tagapagbantay para sa sambahayan ng Israel, kaya makinig ka sa salita mula sa aking bibig, at ibigay sa kanila ang aking babala!

18 When I say to the evil-doer, Death will certainly be your fate; and you give him no word of it and say nothing to make clear to the evil-doer the danger of his evil way, so that he may be safe; that same evil man will come to death in his evil-doing; but I will make you responsible for his blood.

Kapag sinabi ko sa masama, 'Tiyak na mamamatay ka' at hindi mo siya binigyan ng babala o nagsabi ng isang babala sa masama tungkol sa kaniyang masamang mga gawa upang siya ay mabuhay—mamamatay ang masama sa kaniyang kasalanan, ngunit sisingilin ko mula sa iyong kamay ang kaniyang dugo.

19 But if you give the evil-doer word of his danger, and he is not turned from his sin or from his evil way, death will overtake him in his evil-doing; but your life will be safe.

Ngunit kung bibigyan mo ng babala ang masama, at hindi siya tumalikod mula sa kaniyang kasamaan o sa kaniyang masasamang gawain, mamamatay siya sa kaniyang kasalanan, ngunit maililigtas mo ang iyong sariling buhay.

20 Again, when an upright man, turning away from his righteousness, does evil, and I put a cause of falling in his way, death will overtake him: because you have given him no word of his danger, death will overtake him in his evil-doing, and there will be no memory of the upright acts which he has done; but I will make you responsible for his blood.

At kung tatalikod ang isang matuwid na tao mula sa kaniyang pagiging matuwid at gumawa ng hindi makaturungan, maglalagay ako ng batong katitisuran sa kaniyang harapan, at mamamatay siya, dahil hindi mo siya binigyan ng babala. Mamamatay siya sa kaniyang kasalanan, at hindi ko aalalahanin ang kaniyang mabuting mga gawa na kaniyang ginawa, ngunit sisingilin ko mula sa iyong kamay ang kaniyang dugo.

21 But if you say to the upright man that he is not to do evil, he will certainly keep his life because he took note of your word; and your life will be safe.

Ngunit kung babalaan mo ang matuwid na tao na tumigil sa pagkakasala upang hindi na siya magkasala, tiyak na mabubuhay siya dahil nabigyan siya ng babala; at maililigtas mo ang iyong sariling buhay.”

22 And the hand of the Lord was on me there; and he said, Get up and go out into the valley and there I will have talk with you.

Kaya nasa akin doon ang kamay ni Yahweh, at sinabi niya sa akin, Tumayo ka! Pumunta sa kapatagan, at makikipag-usap ako sa iyo doon!

23 Then I got up and went out into the valley; and I saw the glory of the Lord resting there as I had seen it by the river Chebar; and I went down on my face.

Bumangon ako at pumunta sa patag, at nanatili doon ang kaluwalhatian ni Yahweh, tulad ng kaluwalhatiang nakita ko sa gilid ng kanal Kebar; kaya nagpatirapa ako.

24 Then the spirit came into me and put me on my feet; and he had talk with me and said to me, Go and keep yourself shut up inside your house.

Dumating sa akin ang Espiritu at itinayo ako sa aking mga paa; at nagsalita siya sa akin, at sinabi sa akin, “Pumunta ka at pagsarhan ang iyong sarili sa loob ng iyong bahay,

25 But see, O son of man, I will put bands on you, prisoning you in them, and you will not go out among them:

kaya ngayon, anak ng tao, igagapos ka nila ng lubid at itatali ka upang hindi ka makapunta sa kanila.

26 And I will make your tongue fixed to the roof of your mouth, so that you have no voice and may not make protests to them: for they are an uncontrolled people.

Gagawin kong nakadikit ang iyong dila sa ngalangala ng iyong bibig, upang ikaw ay magiging pipi at hindi mo sila mapagsasabihan, yamang sila ay mapanghimagsik silang sambahayan.

27 But when I have talk with you I will make your mouth open, and you are to say to them, This is what the Lord has said: Let the hearer give ear; and as for him who will not, let him keep his ears shut: for they are an uncontrolled people.

Ngunit kapag magsalita ako sa iyo, bubuksan ko ang iyong bibig upang sabihin mo sa kanila, 'Ito ang sinasabi ng Panginoong Yahweh; Siya na makakarinig ay makinig; at siya na hindi makinig ay hindi makikinig, yamang sila ay suwail na sambahayan!”
