Jezekiel 9
1 And he cried in mine ears with a loud voice, saying, The judgment of the city has drawn near; and each had the weapons of destruction in his hand.
Mgbe ahụ, a nụrụ m ka o ji oke olu kpọọ oku sị, “Bịanụ nso, unu bụ ndị ahọpụtara ilekọta obodo a, onye ọbụla jidekwa ngwa agha nʼaka ya.”
2 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.
A hụrụ m ndị ikom isii si nʼọnụ ụzọ ama nke dị nʼakụkụ ebe dị elu na-apụta, nke chere ihu nʼugwu, onye ọbụla jikwa mma agha nʼaka ya. Otu onye nʼime ha yi uwe akwa ọcha, nyarakwa nwa akpa nke ihe e ji ede akwụkwọ dị nʼime ya. Ha niile batara nʼime ụlọnsọ, guzokwa nʼakụkụ ebe ịchụ aja e ji bronz wuo.
3 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;
Ma ebube nke Chineke Izrel sitere nʼelu cherubim ndị ahụ, ebe ọ nọ na mbụ, bilie bịa guzokwa nʼọnụ ụzọ ụlọnsọ ahụ. Mgbe ahụ, Onyenwe anyị kpọrọ nwoke ahụ yi uwe akwa ọcha bụ onye nya akpa ahụ nke ihe e ji ede ihe dị nʼime ya,
4 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.
ọ sịrị ya, “Bilie, jegharịa nʼokporoụzọ niile nke obodo Jerusalem, kakwasị akara nʼegedege ihu ndị niile na-akwa akwa na ndị niile na-asụ ude nʼihi ihe arụ niile nke a na-eme nʼime ya.”
5 And he said to the first in my hearing, Go after him into the city, and strike: and let not your eyes spare, and have no mercy.
Anụkwara m ka ọ gwara ndị ọzọ, “Soronụ ya baa nʼime obodo, gbukwaanụ, unu emekwarala onye ọbụla ebere maọbụ ọmịiko.
6 Slay utterly old man and youth, and virgin, and infants, and women: but go you not near any on whom is the mark: begin at my sanctuary. So they began with the elder men who were within in the house.
Gbuonụ ha niile, ndị okenye, na ụmụ okorobịa, na ụmụ agbọghọbịa, na ndị inyom, na ụmụntakịrị. Ma unu emetụkwala onye ọbụla nwere akara ahụ nʼihu ya. Malitenụ nʼebe a, nʼime ụlọnsọ ukwu m.” Ya mere, ha malitere igbu ndị okenye ndị nọ nʼihu ụlọnsọ.
7 And he said to them, Defile the house, and go out and fill the ways with dead bodies, and strike.
Ọ sịkwara ha, “Merụọnụ ụlọnsọ a! Werekwanụ ozu ndị unu gburu egbu tụjuo nʼime ogige ya! Gaanụ!” Ha pụrụ baa nʼime obodo, bido igbu ndị mmadụ.
8 And it came to pass as they were striking, that I fell upon my face, and cried out, and said, Alas, O Lord! will you destroy the remnant of Israel, in pouring out your wrath upon Jerusalem?
Mgbe ha nọ na-egbu ndị mmadụ maọbụ naanị m fọdụrụ, adara m nʼala kpuchie ihu m, tie mkpu akwa, sị, “Ewoo, Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị! Ị ga-esite nʼoke iwe ị na-eweso Jerusalem bibie ihe niile fọdụrụ nʼIzrel?”
9 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].
Ọ sịrị m, “Mmehie niile nke ụlọ Izrel na Juda dị ukwuu rie nne. Ala niile jupụtakwara nʼọbara ndị egburu, obodo jupụtakwara nʼikpe ikpe na-ezighị ezi. Nʼihi na ha na-asị, ‘Onyenwe anyị esitela nʼala anyị wezuga onwe ya. Ọ dịghị ihe Onyenwe anyị na-ahụ.’
10 Therefore mine eye shall not spare, neither will I have any mercy: I have recompensed their ways upon their heads.
Nʼihi ya, agaghị m ahapụ ha, agakwaghị m enwe ọmịiko nʼahụ ha. Aga m akwụghachi ha nʼihi ihe ọjọọ niile ha mere.”
11 And, behold, the man clothed with the long robe, and girded with the girdle about his loins, answered and said, I have done as you did command me.
Mgbe ahụ, nwoke ahụ yi uwe akwa ọcha, nke nya akpa nke ihe e ji ede akwụkwọ dị nʼime ya, lọghachiri sị, “Arụchaala m ọrụ i nyere m ịrụ.”
