< Ezekiel 22 >

1 Kalpasanna, immay kaniak ti sao ni Yahweh a kunana,
Moreover Yahweh’s word came to me, saying,
2 “Ita, sika nga anak ti tao, mangikeddengkanto kadi? Kedngamto kadi ti siudad ti dara? Ipakaammon kenkuana dagiti amin a makarimon nga inar-aramidna.
“You, son of man, will you judge? Will you judge the bloody city? Then cause her to know all her abominations.
3 Masapul nga ibagam, ‘Kastoy ti kuna ti Apo a ni Yahweh: Daytoy a siudad ket nangpasayasay iti dara iti tengngana isu a dimtengen ti tiempona; maysa a siudad a nangaramid kadagiti didiosen tapno tulawanna ti bagina!
You shall say, ‘The Lord Yahweh says: “A city that sheds blood within herself, that her time may come, and that makes idols against herself to defile her!
4 Nakabasolka gapu iti dara a pinasayasaymo, ken nagbalinka a narugit babaen kadagiti didiosen nga inaramidmo! Ta pinaasidegmon dagiti aldawmo ket dimtengen dagiti maudi a tawenmo. Isu a pagbalinenkanto a pagkakatawaan dagiti dadduma a nasion ken malalais iti imatang ti tunggal daga.
You have become guilty in your blood that you have shed, and are defiled in your idols which you have made! You have caused your days to draw near, and have come to the end of your years. Therefore I have made you a reproach to the nations, and a mocking to all the countries.
5 Agpadanto a laisendaka dagiti adda iti asidegmo ken dagiti adda iti adayom, sika a natulawan a siudad, nga agdindinamag iti sadinnoman gapu ta napnoan iti riribuk!’
Those who are near and those who are far from you will mock you, you infamous one, full of tumult.
6 Kitaem, immay kenka dagiti mangiturturay iti Israel, tunggal maysa babaen iti bukodna a bileg tapno agpasayasay iti dara!
“‘“Behold, the princes of Israel, everyone according to his power, have been in you to shed blood.
7 Saanda a rinaem dagiti amma ken inna nga adda kenka, ken indadanesda dagiti ganggannaet nga adda kenka. Ginundawayanda dagiti ulila ken dagiti balo nga adda kenka.
In you have they treated father and mother with contempt. Among you they have oppressed the foreigner. In you they have wronged the fatherless and the widow.
8 Inuyawmo dagiti nasantoan a banbanag a kukuak ken saanmo a nginilin ti Aldaw a Panaginana!
You have despised my holy things, and have profaned my Sabbaths.
9 Immay kenka dagiti lallaki a managpardaya tapno agpasayasay iti dara, ket nanganda iti ayan dagiti banbantay. Nangaramidda kadagiti kinadangkes iti katengngaam!
Slanderous men have been in you to shed blood. In you they have eaten on the mountains. They have committed lewdness among you.
10 Makitkita kenka ti kinalamo-lamo ti maysa nga ama. Ginundawayanda ti natulawan a babai nga adda kenka kabayatan iti panagbinulanna.
In you have they uncovered their fathers’ nakedness. In you have they humbled her who was unclean in her impurity.
11 Lallaki a makikamkamalala kadagiti assawa ti kaarrubana, ken lallaki a mangtulaw kadagiti bukodda a manugang a babbai; lallaki a manggunggundaway kadagiti bukodda a kabsat a babbai, babbai a putot a mismo dagiti bukodda nga ama—amin dagitoy ket adda kenka.
One has committed abomination with his neighbor’s wife, and another has lewdly defiled his daughter-in-law. Another in you has humbled his sister, his father’s daughter.
12 Nangpasuksok dagitoy a lallaki kadayo tapno agpasayasay iti dara. Pinaanakam iti dakkel ti pautangmo, dinadaelmo dagiti kaarrubam babaen iti panangidadanesmo kadakuada, ken linipatnak—kastoy ti pakaammo ti Apo a ni Yahweh.
In you have they taken bribes to shed blood. You have taken interest and increase, and you have greedily gained of your neighbors by oppression, and have forgotten me,” says the Lord Yahweh.
13 Isu a kitaem! Babaen iti imak, tippayek dagiti nagun-odmo babaen iti panagul-ulbodmo, ken ti panangpasayasay iti dara nga adda iti tengngam.
“‘“Behold, therefore I have struck my hand at your dishonest gain which you have made, and at the blood which has been shed within you.
14 Nakiredto pay kadi ti pusom, napigsanto pay kadi dagiti imam kadagiti aldaw inton Siak a mismo ti mangdusanto kenka? Siak a ni Yahweh, ipakpakaammok daytoy, ket aramidekto daytoy.
Can your heart endure, or can your hands be strong, in the days that I will deal with you? I, Yahweh, have spoken it, and will do it.
15 Isu nga iwarawarakanto kadagiti nasion ken iwaraskanto iti entero a daga. Iti kastoy a wagas ti panangdaluskonto iti kinarugitmo.
I will scatter you among the nations, and disperse you through the countries. I will purge your filthiness out of you.
16 Isu nga agbalinkanto a narugit iti imatang dagiti nasion. Ket maammoamto a Siak ni Yahweh!”
You will be profaned in yourself in the sight of the nations. Then you will know that I am Yahweh.”’”
17 Adda pay sao ni Yahweh nga immay kaniak a kunana,
Yahweh’s word came to me, saying,
18 “Anak ti tao, ti balay ti Israel ket nagbalinen a kasla rugit iti imatangko. Aminda ket kasla da la natda a bronse, lata, landok ken buli iti tengngam. Agbalindanto a kasla rugit ti pirak iti urnom.
“Son of man, the house of Israel has become dross to me. All of them are bronze, tin, iron, and lead in the middle of the furnace. They are the dross of silver.
19 Isu a kastoy ti kuna ti Apo a ni Yahweh, ‘Gapu ta aminkayo ket nagbalinen a kasla rugit, ngarud dumngegkayo! Ummongenkayonto iti tengnga ti Jerusalem.
Therefore the Lord Yahweh says: ‘Because you have all become dross, therefore, behold, I will gather you into the middle of Jerusalem.
20 Runawenkayonto a kasla naurnong a pirak, bronse, landok, buli ken lata iti tengnga ti urno a rumbeng a puyotan iti apuy. Isu nga ummungenkayonto gapu iti nakaro a pungtot ken ungetko. Ikabilkayonto sadiay ket puyotak ti apuy daytoy tapno marunawkayo; isu nga ummungenkayonto gapu iti unget ken iti pungtotko, ket ikabilkayonto sadiay ket ibukbokkayo.
As they gather silver, bronze, iron, lead, and tin into the middle of the furnace, to blow the fire on it, to melt it, so I will gather you in my anger and in my wrath, and I will lay you there and melt you.
21 Isu nga ummongenkayonto ket ipuyotko kadakayo ti apuy ti pungtotko tapno marunawkayo iti tengngana.
Yes, I will gather you, and blow on you with the fire of my wrath, and you will be melted in the middle of it.
22 Kas iti pannakarunaw ti pirak iti tengnga ti maysa nga urno, marunawkanto met iti tengngana, ket maammoamto a Siak a ni Yahweh, ket indissuorko ti nakaro a pungtotko kenka!”’
As silver is melted in the middle of the furnace, so you will be melted in the middle of it; and you will know that I, Yahweh, have poured out my wrath on you.’”
23 Immay kaniak ti sao ni Yahweh a kunana,
Yahweh’s word came to me, saying,
24 “Anak ti tao, ibagam kenkuana, “Sika ket daga a saan a nadalusan. Awanto ti tudo iti aldaw ti nakaro a pungtot!
“Son of man, tell her, ‘You are a land that is not cleansed nor rained on in the day of indignation.’
25 Nalimed a nagtutulag dagiti profetana iti tengngana, a kaslada agngerngernger a leon a mangrangrangkay iti biktimana; patpatayenda dagiti tattao ken alaenda dagiti agkakapateg a kinabaknangda! Adu ti pinagbalinda a balo iti tengngana!
There is a conspiracy of her prophets within it, like a roaring lion ravening the prey. They have devoured souls. They take treasure and precious things. They have made many widows within it.
26 Linabsing dagiti papadina ti lintegko, ken tinulawanda dagiti nasantoan a banbanag a kukuak. Saanda a mailasin ti nagdumaan dagiti nasantoan a banbanag kadagiti makarimon a banbanag, ken saanda nga isuro ti nagdumaan ti saan a nadalus ken ti nadalus. Saanda a ngilinen ti Aldaw iti Panaginana isu a natulawanak iti nagtengngaanda!
Her priests have done violence to my law and have profaned my holy things. They have made no distinction between the holy and the common, neither have they caused men to discern between the unclean and the clean, and have hidden their eyes from my Sabbaths. So I am profaned among them.
27 Dagiti prinsipena ket kaslada lobo a mangrangrangkay kadagiti biktimada. Agpasayasayda iti dara ken agdaddadaelda iti biag, tapno agpabaknangda babaen iti panagulbodda.
Her princes within it are like wolves ravening the prey, to shed blood and to destroy souls, that they may get dishonest gain.
28 Ket arigna a pininturan ida dagiti profetana iti puraw; inuulbod dagiti makitada a sirmata ken agipadtoda iti inuulbod kadakuada. Ibagada “Kastoy ti kuna ti Apo a ni Yahweh” idinto ta saan a sinao ni Yahweh!
Her prophets have plastered for them with whitewash, seeing false visions, and divining lies to them, saying, ‘The Lord Yahweh says,’ when Yahweh has not spoken.
29 Nangidadanes dagiti tattao iti daga babaen iti panagkikil ken nagsamsamda babaen iti panagtakaw, ken ginundawayanda dagiti nakurapay ken agkasapulan, ken indadanesda nga awanan iti hustisia dagiti ganggannaet.
The people of the land have used oppression and exercised robbery. Yes, they have troubled the poor and needy, and have oppressed the foreigner wrongfully.
30 Isu a nangbirukak iti maysa a tao manipud kadakuada a mabalin a mangbangon iti pader ken mangipatakder iti nadadael a paset ti pader iti sangoanak a mangisakit iti daga tapno saanko a dadaelen daytoy, ngem awan nabirukak nga uray maysa.
“I sought for a man among them who would build up the wall and stand in the gap before me for the land, that I would not destroy it; but I found no one.
31 Isu nga idissuorko kadakuada ti nakaro a pungtotko! Gibusak ida babaen iti apuy ti pungtotko ket isublik kadagiti mismo nga uloda dagiti dakes a wagasda—kastoy ti pakaammo ti Apo a ni Yahweh.”’
Therefore I have poured out my indignation on them. I have consumed them with the fire of my wrath. I have brought their own way on their heads,” says the Lord Yahweh.
