Ezekiel 21
1 The LORD’s word came to me, saying,
Ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa tọ mi wá:
2 “Son of man, set your face towards Jerusalem, and proclaim towards the sanctuaries, and prophesy against Eretz-Israel.
“Ọmọ ènìyàn, kọ ojú rẹ sí ìhà Jerusalẹmu, kí o sì wàásù lòdì sí ibi mímọ́. Sọ àsọtẹ́lẹ̀ sí ilẹ̀ Israẹli.
3 Tell Eretz-Israel, ‘The LORD says: “Behold, I am against you, and will draw my sword out of its sheath, and will cut off from you the righteous and the wicked.
Kí ó sì sọ fún un pe, ‘Èyí yìí ni Olúwa wí, Èmi lòdì sí ọ. Èmi yóò fa idà mi yọ kúrò nínú àkọ̀ rẹ̀, Èmi yóò sì ké olódodo àti ènìyàn búburú kúrò ni àárín yín.
4 Seeing then that I will cut off from you the righteous and the wicked, therefore my sword will go out of its sheath against all flesh from the south to the north.
Nítorí pé, èmi yóò ké olódodo àti olùṣe búburú kúrò, idà mi yóò jáde láti inú àkọ̀ rẹ̀ lòdì sí gbogbo ènìyàn láti gúúsù títí dé àríwá.
5 All flesh will know that I, the LORD, have drawn my sword out of its sheath. It will not return any more.”’
Nígbà náà gbogbo ènìyàn yóò mọ̀ pé, Èmi Olúwa ti yọ idà mi kúrò nínú àkọ̀ rẹ̀; kì yóò sì padà sínú rẹ̀ mọ́.’
6 “Therefore sigh, you son of man. You shall sigh before their eyes with a broken heart and with bitterness.
“Nítorí náà, mí ìmí ẹ̀dùn ìwọ ọmọ ènìyàn! Mí ìmí ẹ̀dùn pẹ̀lú ọkàn ìbànújẹ́ àti ẹ̀dùn ọkàn kíkorò ní iwájú wọn.
7 It shall be, when they ask you, ‘Why do you sigh?’ that you shall say, ‘Because of the news, for it comes! Every heart will melt, all hands will be feeble, every spirit will faint, and all knees will be weak as water. Behold, it comes, and it shall be done, says the Lord GOD.’”
Bí wọ́n bá sì bi ọ́, wí pé, ‘Kí ni ó dé tí ìwọ fi ń mí ìmí ẹ̀dùn?’ Ìwọ yóò wí pé, ‘Nítorí ìròyìn tí ó ń bẹ. Gbogbo ọkàn ni yóò yọ́, gbogbo ọwọ́ ni yóò sì di aláìlera; gbogbo ọkàn ní yóò dákú, gbogbo eékún ni yóò sì di aláìlera bí omi?’ Ó ń bọ̀! Yóò sì wa sí ìmúṣẹ dandan, ni Olúwa Olódùmarè wí.”
8 The LORD’s word came to me, saying,
Ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa si tún tọ̀ mí wá pé:
9 “Son of man, prophesy, and say, ‘The LORD says: “A sword! A sword! It is sharpened, and also polished.
“Ọmọ ènìyàn, sọtẹ́lẹ̀ wí pé, èyí yìí ní Olúwa wí pé, “‘Idà kan, idà kan, tí a pọ́n, tí a sì dán pẹ̀lú,
10 It is sharpened that it may make a slaughter. It is polished that it may be as lightning. Should we then make mirth? The rod of my son condemns every tree.
a pọ́n láti pa ènìyàn púpọ̀, a dán an láti máa kọ mọ̀nà! “‘Àwa o ha máa ṣe àríyá ọ̀gọ ọmọ mi? Idà gán gbogbo irú igi bẹ́ẹ̀.
11 It is given to be polished, that it may be handled. The sword is sharpened. Yes, it is polished to give it into the hand of the killer.”’
“‘Idà ní a yàn láti pọ́n, kí ó lè ṣe é gbámú; a pọ́n ọn, a sì dán an, ó ṣetán fún ọwọ́ àwọn apani.
12 Cry and wail, son of man; for it is on my people. It is on all the princes of Israel. They are delivered over to the sword with my people. Therefore beat your thigh.
Sọkún síta, kí ó sì pohùnréré ẹ̀kún, ọmọ ènìyàn, nítorí yóò wá sórí àwọn ènìyàn mi; yóò wá sórí gbogbo ọmọ-aládé Israẹli ìbẹ̀rù ńlá yóò wá sórí àwọn ènìyàn mi nítorí idà náà; nítorí náà lu oókan àyà rẹ.
13 “For there is a trial. What if even the rod that condemns will be no more?” says the Lord GOD.
“‘Ìdánwò yóò dé dandan. Tí ọ̀pá aládé Juda èyí tí idà kẹ́gàn, kò bá tẹ̀síwájú mọ́ ń kọ́? Ni Olúwa Olódùmarè wí.’
14 “You therefore, son of man, prophesy, and strike your hands together. Let the sword be doubled the third time, the sword of the fatally wounded. It is the sword of the great one who is fatally wounded, which enters into their rooms.
“Nítorí náà, ọmọ ènìyàn, sọtẹ́lẹ̀ kí ó sì fi ọwọ́ lu ọwọ́. Jẹ́ kí idà lu ara wọn lẹ́ẹ̀méjì, kódà ní ẹ̀ẹ̀mẹta. Ó jẹ́ idà fún ìpànìyàn idà fún ìpànìyàn lọ́pọ̀lọ́pọ̀, tí yóò sé wọn mọ́ níhìn-ín àti lọ́hùnnún.
15 I have set the threatening sword against all their gates, that their heart may melt, and their stumblings be multiplied. Ah! It is made as lightning. It is pointed for slaughter.
Kí ọkàn kí ó lè yọ́ kí àwọn tí ó ṣubú le pọ̀, mo ti gbé idà sí gbogbo bodè fún ìparun. Háà! A mú kí ó kọ bí ìmọ̀nàmọ́ná, a gbá a mú fún ìparun.
16 Gather yourselves together. Go to the right. Set yourselves in array. Go to the left, wherever your face is set.
Ìwọ idà, jà sí ọ̀tún kí o sì jà sí òsì lọ ibikíbi tí ẹnu rẹ bá dojúkọ.
17 I will also strike my hands together, and I will cause my wrath to rest. I, the LORD, have spoken it.”
Èmi gan an yóò pàtẹ́wọ́ ìbínú mi yóò sì rẹlẹ̀. Èmi Olúwa ti sọ̀rọ̀.”
18 The LORD’s word came to me again, saying,
Ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa tọ mi wá:
19 “Also, you son of man, appoint two ways, that the sword of the king of Babylon may come. They both will come out of one land, and mark out a place. Mark it out at the head of the way to the city.
“Ọmọ ènìyàn la ọ̀nà méjì fún idà ọba Babeli láti gbà, kí méjèèjì bẹ̀rẹ̀ láti ìlú kan náà. Ṣe àmì sí ìkóríta ọ̀nà tí ó lọ sí ìlú náà.
20 You shall appoint a way for the sword to come to Rabbah of the children of Ammon, and to Judah in Jerusalem the fortified.
La ọ̀nà kan fún idà láti wá kọlu Rabba ti àwọn ará Ammoni kí òmíràn kọlu Juda, kí ó sì kọlu Jerusalẹmu ìlú olódi.
21 For the king of Babylon stood at the parting of the way, at the head of the two ways, to use divination. He shook the arrows back and forth. He consulted the teraphim. He looked in the liver.
Nítorí ọba Babeli yóò dúró ni ìyànà ní ojú ọ̀nà, ní ìkóríta, láti máa lo àfọ̀ṣẹ. Yóò fi ọfà di ìbò, yóò béèrè lọ́wọ́ àwọn òrìṣà rẹ̀, òun yóò ṣe àyẹ̀wò ẹ̀dọ̀.
22 In his right hand was the lot for Jerusalem, to set battering rams, to open the mouth in the slaughter, to lift up the voice with shouting, to set battering rams against the gates, to cast up mounds, and to build forts.
Nínú ọwọ́ ọ̀tún rẹ ni ìbò Jerusalẹmu yóò ti wá, ní ibi tí yóò ti gbé afárá kalẹ̀, láti pàṣẹ fún àwọn apànìyàn, láti mú ki wọn hó ìhó ogun láti gbé òòlù dí ẹnu-ọ̀nà ibodè, láti mọ odi, àti láti kọ́ ilé ìṣọ́.
23 It will be to them as a false divination in their sight, who have sworn oaths to them; but he brings iniquity to memory, that they may be taken.
Àfọ̀ṣẹ náà yóò dàbí àmì èké sí àwọn tí ó ti búra ìtẹríba fún un, ṣùgbọ́n òun yóò ran wọn létí ẹbí wọn yóò sì mú wọn lọ sí ìgbèkùn.
24 “Therefore the Lord GOD says: ‘Because you have caused your iniquity to be remembered, in that your transgressions are uncovered, so that in all your doings your sins appear; because you have come to memory, you will be taken with the hand.
“Nítorí náà èyí ní ohun tí Olúwa Olódùmarè wí: ‘Nítorí ti ẹ̀yin ti mú ẹ̀bi yín wá sí ìrántí nípa ìṣọ̀tẹ̀ ní gbangba, ní ṣíṣe àfihàn àwọn ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ rẹ nínú gbogbo ohun tí ó ṣe, nítorí tí ẹ̀yin ti ṣe èyí, a yóò mú yín ní ìgbèkùn.
25 “‘You, deadly wounded wicked one, the prince of Israel, whose day has come, in the time of the iniquity of the end,
“‘Ìwọ aláìmọ́ àti ẹni búburú ọmọ-aládé Israẹli, ẹni ti ọjọ́ rẹ̀ ti dé, ẹni tí àsìkò ìjìyà rẹ̀ ti dé góńgó,
26 the Lord GOD says: “Remove the turban, and take off the crown. This will not be as it was. Exalt that which is low, and humble that which is high.
èyí yìí ní ohun tí Olúwa Olódùmarè wí, tú ìwérí kúrò kí o sì gbé adé kúrò. Kò ní rí bí ti tẹ́lẹ̀, ẹni ìgbéga ni a yóò sì rẹ̀ sílẹ̀.
27 I will overturn, overturn, overturn it. This also will be no more, until he comes whose right it is; and I will give it.”’
Ìparun! Ìparun! Èmi yóò ṣé e ni ìparun! Kì yóò padà bọ̀ sípò bí kò ṣe pé tí ó bá wá sí ọ̀dọ̀ ẹni tí ó ní ẹ̀tọ́ láti ni in; òun ni èmi yóò fi fún.’
28 “You, son of man, prophesy and say, ‘The Lord GOD says this concerning the children of Ammon, and concerning their reproach: “A sword! A sword is drawn! It is polished for the slaughter, to cause it to devour, that it may be as lightning;
“Àti ìwọ, ọmọ ènìyàn sọtẹ́lẹ̀ kí ó sì wí pé, ‘Èyí yìí ní ohun tí Olúwa Olódùmarè wí nípa àwọn ará Ammoni àti àbùkù wọn: “‘Idà kan idà kan tí á fa yọ fún ìpànìyàn tí a dán láti fi ènìyàn ṣòfò àti láti kọ bí ìmọ̀nàmọ́ná!
29 while they see for you false visions, while they divine lies to you, to lay you on the necks of the wicked who are deadly wounded, whose day has come in the time of the iniquity of the end.
Bí ó tilẹ̀ jẹ́ pé a rí èké nípa yín àti àfọ̀ṣẹ èké nípa yín a yóò gbé e lé àwọn ọrùn ènìyàn búburú ti a ó pa, àwọn tí ọjọ́ wọn ti dé, àwọn tí ọjọ́ ìjìyà wọn ti dé góńgó.
30 Cause it to return into its sheath. In the place where you were created, in the land of your birth, I will judge you.
“‘Dá idà padà sínú àkọ̀ rẹ̀. Níbi tí a gbé ṣẹ̀dá yín, ní ibi tí ẹ̀yin ti ṣẹ̀ wá.
31 I will pour out my indignation on you. I will blow on you with the fire of my wrath. I will deliver you into the hand of brutish men, skilful to destroy.
Níbẹ̀ ni èmi yóò ti ṣe ìdájọ́ yín, èmi o sì fi èémí ìbínú gbígbóná mi bá yín jà.
32 You will be for fuel to the fire. Your blood will be in the middle of the land. You will be remembered no more; for I, the LORD, have spoken it.”’”
Ẹ̀yin yóò jẹ́ èpò fún iná náà, a yóò ta ẹ̀jẹ̀ yin sórí ilẹ̀ yín, a kì yóò rántí yín mọ́; nítorí Èmi Olúwa ní ó ti wí bẹ́ẹ̀.’”
