< Ezekiela 9 >

1 Ary niantso tamin’ ny feo mahery teo anatrehako Jehovah ka nanao hoe: Manakeke ianareo, ry mpiambina ny tanàna, ka samia mitondra ny fiadiany eny an-tànany avy ho enti-mandringana.
And he cried in mine ears with a loud voice, saying, The judgment of the city has drawn nigh; and each had the weapons of destruction in his hand.
2 Ary, indreo, nisy lehilahy enina avy tamin’ ny lalana mankamin’ ny vavahady ambony, izay manatrika ny avaratra, sady samy nitondra ny fiasany fanorotoroana teny an-tanany avy izy; ary ny anankiray tamin’ ireo dia nitafy rongony fotsy, sady nisy fitoeran-dranomaintin’ ny mpanoratra teo am-balahany; ary niditra izy ireo ka nitsangana teo anilan’ ny alitara varahina.
And, behold, six men came from the way of the high gate that looks toward the north, and each one's axe was in his hand; and there was one man in the midst of them clothed with a long robe down to the feet, and a sapphire girdle was on his loins: and they came in and stood near the brazen altar.
3 Ary ny voninahitr’ Andriamanitry ny Isiraely efa niakatra niala teo amin’ ny kerobima, izay nitoerany, ho eo amin’ ny tokonam-baravaran’ ny trano, ary Izy niantso ilay olona nitafy rongony, totsy izay nisy fitoeran-dranomaintin’ ny mpanoratra teo am-balahany.
And the glory of the God of Israel, that was upon them, went up from the cherubs to the porch of the house. And he called the man that was clothed with the long robe, who had the girdle on his loins;
4 Ary hoy Jehovah taminy: Mandehana mamaky ny tanàna, dia Jerosalema, ka asio marika ny handrin’ ny olona izay misento sy mitaraina noho ny fahavetavetana rehetra atao eo aminy.
And said to him, Go through the midst of Jerusalem, and set a mark on the foreheads of the men that groan and that grieve for all the iniquities that are done in the midst of them.
5 Ary reko Izy nanao tamin’ ny sasany hoe: Mandehana manaraka azy ianareo hamaky ny tanàna, ka mameleza; aoka tsy hamindra fo aminy ny masonareo, ary aza ananana antra izy,
And he said to the first in my hearing, Go after him into the city, and smite: and let not your eyes spare, and have no mercy.
6 Fa na lahy antitra, na zatovo, na virijina, na zaza madinika, na vehivavy, dia aringano avokoa; fa izay olona misy ilay marika ihany no aza kasihina ary atombohy hatreo amin’ ny fitoerako masìna izany. Dia nanomboka tamin’ ny lahy antitra izay teo anoloan’ ny trano ireo.
Slay utterly old man and youth, and virgin, and infants, and women: but go ye not nigh any on whom is the mark: begin at my sanctuary. So they began with the elder men who were within in the house.
7 Ary hoy Izy taminy: Lotoy ny trano, ary fenoy faty ny kianja; dia mivoaha ianareo. Ary dia nivoaka izy ka namely ny tao an-tanàna.
And he said to them, Defile the house, and go out and fill the ways with dead bodies, and smite.
8 Ary raha mbola namely izy, ary izaho ihany no sisa teo, dia niankohoka aho ka nitaraina hoe: Indrisy! Jehovah Tompo ô! haringanao va ny sisa rehetra amin’ ny Isiraely amin’ izao ampidinanao ny fahatezeranao amin’ i Jerosalema izao?
And it came to pass as they were smiting, that I fell upon my face, and cried out, and said, Alas, O Lord! wilt thou destroy the remnant of Israel, in pouring out thy wrath upon Jerusalem?
9 Dia hoy Izy tamiko: Lehibe dia lehibe ny heloky ny taranak’ ny Isiraely sy ny Joda, ary feno ran’ olona nalatsaka ny tany, sady feno fitsarana miangatra ny tanàna, satria hoy izy: Jehovah efa nahafoy ny tany ary Jehovah tsy mahita.
Then said he to me, The iniquity of the house of Israel and Juda is become very exceedingly great: for the land is filled with many nations, and the city is filled with iniquity and uncleanness: because they have said, The Lord has forsaken the earth, The Lord looks not upon [it].
10 Ary Izaho kosa, dia tsy hiantra ny masoko, sady tsy hamindra fo aho, fa hatsingeriko ho eo an-dohany ny nataony.
Therefore mine eye shall not spare, neither will I have any mercy: I have recompensed their ways upon their heads.
11 Ary, indro, ralehilahy, ilay nitafy rongony fotsy sady nisy fitoeran-dranomainty teo am-balahany, dia nitondra teny niverina nanao hoe: Efa vitako izay nandidianao ahy.
And, behold, the man clothed with the long robe, and girt with the girdle about his loins, answered and said, I have done as thou didst command me.
