Ezekiel 36
1 You human, prophesy about the mountains in Israel. Say to them, “You mountains in Israel, listen to what Yahweh says.
At ikaw, anak ng tao, manghula ka laban sa mga bundok ng Israel, at sabihin mo, Kayong mga bundok ng Israel, pakinggan ninyo ang salita ng Panginoon.
2 This is what Yahweh the Lord says: Your enemies [happily] said about you, ‘Aha! The mountains in Israel that have existed for a long time have become ours!’”
Ganito ang sabi ng Panginoong Dios: sapagka't sinabi ng kaaway sa inyo, Aha! at, Ang dating mga mataas na dako ay aming pag-aari;
3 Therefore prophesy about those mountains and say, “This is what Yahweh the Lord declares: [Armies of other nations] attacked you [DOU] from every direction, with the result that your land became abandoned, and people of other nations occupied you, and they spoke maliciously about you and slandered you.
Kaya't manghula ka, at iyong sabihin, Ganito ang sabi ng Panginoong Dios: Sapagka't, sa makatuwid baga'y sapagka't kanilang ginawang sira kayo, at nadaig kayo sa lahat ng dako, upang kayo'y maging pag-aari ng nalabi sa mga bansa, at kayo'y nabanggit ng mga labi ng mga mangdadaldal, at masamang ulat ng bayan;
4 Therefore, you mountains in Israel, listen to this message from me. I, Yahweh the Lord, have something to say to the hills and mountains, to the ravines and valleys, to the deserted ruins and towns whose valuable possessions have been taken and their people ridiculed by the people of other nations around them. This is what I, Yahweh the Lord, declare: I am very angry [DOU] with the people of Edom and other nations; they have forced you [Israeli people] to endure them insulting you.
Kaya't kayong mga bundok ng Israel, inyong pakinggan ang salita ng Panginoong Dios: Ganito ang sabi ng Panginoong Dios sa mga bundok at sa mga burol, sa mga daan ng tubig at sa mga libis, sa mga sirang dako at sa mga bayan na nangapabayaan, na mga naging samsam at kakutyaan na nalabi sa mga bansa na nangasa palibot;
Kaya't ganito ang sabi ng Panginoong Dios: Tunay na sa silakbo ng aking paninibugho ay nagsalita ako laban sa nalabi sa mga bansa, at laban sa buong Edom, na nagtakda ng aking lupain sa kanilang sarili na pag-aari na may kagalakan ng buo nilang puso, na may sama ng loob, upang ihagis na pinakasamsam.
Kaya't manghula ka tungkol sa lupain ng Israel, at sabihin mo sa mga bundok at sa mga burol, sa mga daan ng tubig at sa mga libis, Ganito ang sabi ng Panginoong Dios: Narito, ako'y nagsalita sa aking paninibugho at sa aking kapusukan, sapagka't inyong tinaglay ang kahihiyan ng mga bansa.
7 Therefore, this is what I, Yahweh the Lord, say: Lifting up my arm, I solemnly declare that the people of the nations that are around you will also endure being insulted.
Kaya't ganito ang sabi ng Panginoong Dios: Aking itinaas ang aking kamay, na aking sinasabi, Tunay na ang mga bansa na nangasa palibot ninyo, mangagtataglay sila ng malaking kahihiyan.
8 But [I say to] you mountains in Israel that huge crops of fruit will grow on your trees for my Israeli people, because they will soon return home [from Babylonia].
Nguni't, kayo, Oh mga bundok ng Israel, inyong isusupling ang inyong mga sanga, at magbubunga sa aking bayang Israel; sapagka't sila'y malapit nang dumating.
9 I (am concerned about/will take care of) you, and I will bless you. I will [enable farmers to] plow the ground and plant seed there.
Sapagka't, narito, ako'y sa inyo, at ako'y babalik sa inyo, at kayo'y mabubukid at mahahasikan;
10 I will cause the number of people who live on you mountains and everywhere else in Israel to greatly increase. People will live in the towns and rebuild [houses where there are now only] ruins.
At ako'y magpaparami ng mga tao sa inyo, buong sangbahayan ni Israel, sa makatuwid baga'y siyang lahat; at ang mga bayan ay tatahanan, at ang mga sirang dako ay mangatatayo;
11 I will cause the number of people and domestic animals to increase. People will have many children [IDM, DOU]. I will enable people to live there like they did previously, and I will enable them to prosper like they did before. Then you will know that it is I, Yahweh, [who have the power to do what I say that I will do].
At ako'y magpaparami sa inyo ng tao at hayop; at sila'y magsisidami at mangagkakaanak: at aking patatahanin kayo ayon sa inyong dating kalagayan, at gagawan ko kayo ng magaling kay sa una: at inyong malalaman na ako ang Panginoon.
12 I will enable my Israeli people to walk through your mountains. They will own you; you will be their permanent possession. Never again will their children die.
Oo, aking palalakarin sa inyo ang mga tao, sa makatuwid baga'y ang aking bayang Israel; at kanilang aariin ka, at ikaw ay magiging kanilang mana, at hindi mo na sila wawalaan ng mga anak.
13 This is also what I, Yahweh the Lord, say to you: People say that [only a small amount of food is produced on your mountains, and as a result the people of Israel] die from hunger.
Ganito ang sabi ng Panginoong Dios: Sapagka't kanilang sinasabi sa iyo, Ikaw na lupain ay manglalamon nga ng mga tao, at naging mapagpahirap sa iyong bansa;
14 Therefore, I, Yahweh the Lord, declare that no longer will that happen.
Kaya't hindi ka na manglalamon pa ng mga tao o papatay pa man sa iyong bansa, sabi ng Panginoong Dios;
15 No longer will the people of other nations ridicule you; no longer will they laugh at you; no longer will [the armies of] other nations conquer you. [That will surely happen because] I, Yahweh, have declared that it will happen.”
O iparirinig ko pa man sa iyo ang kahihiyan ng mga bansa, o magtataglay ka pa man ng kakutyaan ng mga bayan, o ititisod mo pa man ang iyong bansa, sabi ng Panginoong Dios.
16 Yahweh gave me another message. He said,
Bukod dito'y dumating sa akin ang salita ng Panginoon, na nagsasabi,
17 “You human, when the Israeli people were living in their own land, they (defiled it/caused it to become unacceptable to me) by the things that they did. I considered that their behavior was [disgusting], like [SIM] the rags/cloths that women use during their monthly menstrual periods.
Anak ng tao, nang tumatahan ang sangbahayan ni Israel sa kanilang sariling lupain, kanilang inihawa ng kanilang lakad at ng kanilang mga gawa: ang kanilang lakad sa harap ko ay naging parang karumihan ng babae sa kaniyang kapanahunan.
18 So I severely punished [MTY] them, because they had murdered [MTY] many people and because they had defiled the land by [worshiping] idols there.
Kaya't aking ibinugso ang aking kapusukan sa kanila dahil sa dugo na kanilang ibinubo sa lupain, at dahil sa kanilang nilapastangan ng kanilang mga diosdiosan;
19 I caused them to be scattered among many nations [DOU]. I punished [MTY] them like they deserved to be punished because of their very evil behavior [DOU].
At aking pinangalat sila sa mga bansa, at sila'y nagsipanabog sa mga lupain: ayon sa kanilang lakad at ayon sa kanilang mga gawa ay hinatulan ko sila.
20 And wherever they went among those nations, they caused my reputation [MTY] to be disgraced. What has happened is that the people in those countries said about the Israeli people, ‘They belong to Yahweh, but they were forced to leave the land that he [gave to them].’
At nang sila'y dumating sa mga bansa, na kanilang pinaroonan, kanilang nilapastangan ang aking banal na pangalan; sa pagsasabi ng mga tao tungkol sa kanila, Ang mga ito ay bayan ng Panginoon, at nagsilabas sa kaniyang lupain.
21 But I was concerned about my reputation, which the people of Israel had disgraced among the nations to which they were forced to go.
Nguni't iginalang ko ang aking banal na pangalan, na nilapastangan ng sangbahayan ni Israel sa mga bansa na kanilang pinaroonan.
22 Therefore, say to the Israeli people, ‘This is what Yahweh the Lord says: You Israeli people, it is not for your sake that I am going to do these things. Instead, it is for the sake of my sacred reputation, which you have disgraced among the nations to which you were forced to go.
Kaya't sabihin mo sa sangbahayan ni Israel, Ganito ang sabi ng Panginoong Dios; Hindi ko ginawa ito dahil sa inyo, Oh sangbahayan ni Israel, kundi dahil sa aking banal na pangalan, na inyong nilapastangan sa mga bansa na inyong pinaroonan.
23 I will show that my reputation is sacred, a reputation which you have disgraced among the nations to which you were forced to go. And when I show the nations that I am holy, the people of those nations will know that I, Yahweh, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].
At aking babanalin ang aking dakilang pangalan, na nalapastangan sa mga bansa, na inyong nilapastangan sa gitna nila; at malalaman ng mga bansa na ako ang Panginoon, sabi ng Panginoong Dios, pagka ako'y aariing banal sa inyo sa harap ng kanilang mga mata.
24 What I will do is to bring you back from those nations. I will gather you from all the countries [to which you were forced to go], and bring you back to your own land.
Sapagka't aking kukunin kayo sa mga bansa, at pipisanin ko kayo na mula sa lahat ng lupain, at dadalhin ko kayo sa inyong sariling lupain.
25 [It will be as though] [MET] I will sprinkle clean water on you, and then you will be clean. I will cause you to be cleansed from everything that has defiled you, and I will cause you to stop worshiping idols.
At ako'y magwiwisik ng malinis na tubig sa inyo, at kayo'y magiging malinis: sa buo ninyong karumihan, at sa lahat ninyong mga diosdiosan, lilinisin ko kayo.
26 I will give you a completely new way of thinking [IDM]. I will enable you to stop being stubborn [IDM], and I will enable you to obey me from your inner beings [IDM].
Bibigyan ko rin naman kayo ng bagong puso, at lalagyan ko ang loob ninyo ng bagong diwa; at aking aalisin ang batong puso sa inyong katawan, at aking bibigyan kayo ng pusong laman.
27 I will put my Spirit within you and enable you to carefully obey all my laws [DOU].
At aking ilalagay ang aking Espiritu sa loob ninyo, at palalakarin ko kayo ng ayon sa aking mga palatuntunan, at inyong iingatan ang aking mga kahatulan, at isasagawa.
28 You will again live in the land that I gave to your ancestors. You will be my people, and I will be your God.
At kayo'y magsisitahan sa lupain na ibinigay ko sa inyong mga magulang; at kayo'y magiging aking bayan, at ako'y magiging inyong Dios.
29 I will free you from all your disgraceful behavior. I will cause your grain to be plentiful, and I will not send a famine to you again.
At lilinisin ko kayo sa lahat ninyong karumihan: at aking patutubuin ang trigo, at aking pararamihin, at hindi na ako magpaparating ng kagutom sa inyo.
30 I will cause your fruit trees to produce plenty of fruit and your ground to produce plenty of good crops, with the result that you will no longer be ridiculed by the people of other nations because of your not having enough food.
At aking pararamihin ang bunga ng punong kahoy, at ang ani sa bukid, upang huwag na kayong tumanggap pa ng kadustaan ng kagutom sa mga bansa.
31 When that happens, you will think about your previous evil behavior and wicked deeds, and you will (be very displeased with/hate) yourselves for your sins and the detestable things that you did.
Kung magkagayo'y inyong maaalaala ang inyong mga masamang lakad, at ang inyong mga gawa na hindi mabuti; at kayo'y mayayamot sa inyong sarili sa inyong paninging sarili, dahil sa inyong mga kasamaan at dahil sa inyong mga kasuklamsuklam.
32 But I, Yahweh the Lord, declare that I want you to know that it is not for your sake that I will do those things. You Israeli people ought to be ashamed of your behavior.
Hindi dahil sa inyo ginagawa ko ito, sabi ng Panginoong Dios, tantuin ninyo: kayo'y mangahiya at mangalito dahil sa inyong mga lakad, Oh sangbahayan ni Israel.
33 This is also what I, Yahweh the Lord, say: At the time that I forgive you for all the sins that you have committed, I will enable you to live in your towns again and to build houses where there are now only ruins.
Ganito ang sabi ng Panginoong Dios: Sa araw na aking linisin kayo sa lahat ninyong kasamaan, aking patatahanan ang mga bayan, at ang mga gibang dako ay mangatatayo.
34 People who walk through your country will see that your land is again cultivated instead of (being desolate/having nothing growing in it).
At ang lupain na naging sira ay mabubukid, na naging sira sa paningin ng lahat na nangagdaraan.
35 They will say, “This land that was ruined has become [very fertile/productive] like [SIM] the garden of Eden! The cities that were piles of ruins, empty and destroyed, now have walls around them, and people live in those cities.”
At kanilang sasabihin, Ang lupaing ito na naging sira ay naging gaya ng halamanan ng Eden; at ang sira at giba at wasak na mga bayan ay nakukutaan at tinatahanan.
36 When that happens, the people in the nations that are around you that still exist will know that it is I, Yahweh, who have enabled you to rebuild what was destroyed, and to again plant crops in the fields that had nothing growing in them. I, Yahweh, have said [that it will happen], and I will cause it to happen.
Kung magkagayo'y malalaman ng mga bansa na nalabi sa palibot ninyo na akong Panginoon ay nagtayo ng mga guhong dako, at tinamnan ko ang dakong sira: akong Panginoon ang nagsalita, at aking gagawin.
37 This is also what I, Yahweh the Lord, say: Again I will heed what you Israeli people are pleading for me to do for you. I will cause your people to be as numerous as your sheep,
Ganito ang sabi ng Panginoong Dios: Bukod dito pa'y pagsasanggunian ako ng sangbahayan ni Israel, upang gawin sa kanila; ako'y magpaparami sa kanila ng tao na parang kawan.
38 as numerous as the flocks of sheep that will be needed for offerings in Jerusalem during your regular festivals. The cities that are now ruined will be filled with people, and then you will know that I, Yahweh the Lord, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].’”
Kung paano ang kawan na panghain, kung paano ang kawan ng Jerusalem sa kanilang mga takdang kapistahan, gayon mapupuno ang mga gibang bayan ng mga kawan ng mga tao: at kanilang malalaman na ako ang Panginoon.
