Ezekiel 2

1 And he said to me, Son of man, get up on your feet, so that I may say words to you.

Ary hoy Izy tamiko: Ry zanak’ olona, mitsangàna, fa hiteny aminao Aho.

2 And at his words the spirit came into me and put me on my feet; and his voice came to my ears.

Ary nisy fanahy tonga tao anatiko, raha niteny tamiko Izy, ka nampitsangana ahy, ary reko Izay niteny tamiko.

3 And he said to me, Son of man, I am sending you to the children of Israel, to an uncontrolled nation which has gone against me: they and their fathers have been sinners against me even to this very day.

Ary hoy Izy tamiko: Ry zanak’ olona, maniraka anao ho amin’ ny zanak’ Isiraely Aho, eny, ho amin’ ireo jentilisa mpiodina, izay efa niodina tamiko; izy sy ny razany dia samy efa nanota tamiko avokoa mandraka androany.

4 And the children are hard and stiff-hearted; I am sending you to them: and you are to say to them, These are the words of the Lord.

Ary ho any amin’ ny zanaka mafy handrina sy madi-po no anirahako anao, ary ianao hanao aminy hoe: Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah Tompo.

5 And they, if they give ear to you or if they do not give ear (for they are an uncontrolled people), will see that there has been a prophet among them.

Ary na hihaino izy na tsy hihaino (fa taranaka maditra izy), dia ho fantany fa efa nisy mpaminany teo aminy.

6 And you, son of man, have no fear of them or of their words, even if sharp thorns are round you and you are living among scorpions: have no fear of their words and do not be overcome by their looks, for they are an uncontrolled people.

Ary ianao, ry zanak’ olona, aza matahotra azy, ary aza matahotra ny teniny, na dia voakasiky ny amiana sy ny tsilo aza ianao, ary na dia eo amin’ ny maingoka aza no ipetrahanao; eny, aza matahotra ny fiteniny, ary aza mivadi-po noho ny tarehiny, fa taranaka maditra izy.

7 And you are to give them my words, if they give ear to you or if they do not: for they are uncontrolled.

Ary holazainao aminy ihany ny amiko, na hihaino izy na tsy hihaino, fa tena naditra izy.

8 But you, son of man, give ear to what I say to you, and do not be uncontrolled like that uncontrolled people: let your mouth be open and take what I give you.

Fa ianao kosa, ry zanak’ olona, mihainoa izay lazaiko aminao; aza maditra tahaka izany taranaka maditra izany ianao; akafy ny vavanao, ka hano izay afahako anao.

9 And looking, I saw a hand stretched out to me, and I saw the roll of a book in it;

Ary hitako fa, indro, nisy tanana nahinjitra tamiko, ary, indro, nisy horonan-taratasy ny aminy.

10 And he put it open before me, and it had writing on the front and on the back; words of grief and sorrow and trouble were recorded in it.

Dia novelariny teo anatrehako izany, ary nisy soratra teo anatiny sy teo ivoany; ary fitomaniana sy fidradradradrana loza no voasoratra teo.
