Yehezkiel 3
1 Allah berkata, "Hai manusia fana, makanlah kitab gulungan ini, lalu pergilah dan berbicaralah kepada orang-orang Israel."
And he said unto me, Son of man, eat what thou findest: eat this roll, and go, speak unto the house of Israel.
2 Lalu kubuka mulutku dan Allah memberikan kitab gulungan itu kepadaku supaya kumakan.
So I opened my mouth, and he caused me to eat this roll.
3 Kata-Nya, "Hai manusia fana, makanlah! Isilah perutmu dengan kitab gulungan ini." Lalu kitab itu kumakan dan rasanya manis seperti madu.
And he said unto me, Son of man, feed thy belly, and fill thy bowels with this roll that I am giving unto thee. And I ate it; and it was in my mouth like honey in sweetness.
4 Allah berkata lagi, "Hai manusia fana, pergilah kepada orang-orang Israel dan sampaikanlah segala pesan-Ku kepada mereka.
And he said unto me, Son of man, go, get thee unto the house of Israel, and speak with my words unto them.
5 Kepada merekalah engkau Kuutus, dan bukan kepada bangsa yang bahasanya sulit, asing dan tidak kau mengerti. Seandainya engkau Kuutus kepada bangsa yang seperti itu, maka mereka akan mendengarkan kata-katamu.
For not to a people of an obscure speech and of a difficult tongue art thou sent, but to the house of Israel;
Not to many people of an obscure speech and of a difficult tongue, whose words thou canst not understand. Surely, had I sent thee to them, they would truly have hearkened unto thee.
7 Tetapi bangsa Israel tidak mau mendengarkan engkau, bahkan Aku pun tak mereka hiraukan. Mereka semua keras kepala dan suka melawan.
But the house of Israel will not hearken unto thee; for they will not hearken unto me; for all the house of Israel have a bold forehead, and a hard heart.
8 Sekarang engkau akan Kubuat keras kepala dan ulet seperti mereka juga.
Behold, I have made thy face strong against their face, and thy forehead strong against their forehead.
9 Engkau akan Kujadikan seteguh batu karang dan sekeras intan. Janganlah takut kepada para pemberontak itu."
As an adamant harder than flint have I made thy forehead: thou shalt not fear them, nor shalt thou be dismayed at their presence, though they be a rebellious family.
10 Selanjutnya Allah berkata, "Hai manusia fana, perhatikanlah baik-baik dan ingatlah segala yang akan Kukatakan kepadamu.
And he said unto me, Son of man, all my words that I will speak unto thee receive in thy heart, and hear [them] with thy ears.
11 Pergilah kepada bangsamu yang ada dalam pembuangan itu, dan sampaikanlah apa yang Aku, TUHAN Yang Mahatinggi katakan kepada mereka, entah mereka mau mendengarkan atau tidak."
And go, get thee to those in exile, unto the children of thy people, and speak unto them, and say unto them, Thus hath said the Lord Eternal: whether they will hear, or whether they will forbear.
12 Lalu Roh Allah mengangkat aku dan di belakangku kudengar suara gemuruh yang berkata, "Pujilah kemuliaan TUHAN di surga!"
Then a spirit took me up, and I heard behind me a voice of a great rushing, [saying, ] Blessed be the glory of the Lord from his place.
13 Kudengar bunyi sayap makhluk-makhluk itu yang saling bersentuhan, dan bunyi gemertak roda-roda itu yang senyaring bunyi gempa bumi.
[I heard] also the sound of the wings of the living creatures that touched one another, and the sound of the wheels at the same time with them, and the sound of a great rushing.
14 Kekuasaan TUHAN mendatangi aku dengan hebat, dan ketika aku diangkat dan dibawa oleh Roh-Nya, hatiku terasa pahit dan panas.
So a spirit lifted me up, and took me away, and I walked in bitterness, in the heat of my spirit, and the inspiration of the Lord was strong upon me.
15 Maka tibalah aku di tempat pemukiman para buangan di Tel-Abib di tepi Sungai Kebar. Selama tujuh hari aku tinggal di situ; aku termangu-mangu oleh segala yang baru saja kudengar dan kulihat itu.
Then came I to the exiles at Tel-abib, who dwelt by the river Kebar, and I remained where they dwelt, and I remained there in a state of confusion among them seven days.
16 Sesudah tujuh hari, TUHAN berkata kepadaku,
And it came to pass at the end of seven days, That the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,
17 "Hai manusia fana, engkau Kuangkat menjadi penjaga bangsa Israel. Sampaikanlah kepada mereka peringatan yang Kuberikan ini.
Son of man, I have made thee a watchman unto the house of Israel: and thou shalt hear the word out of my mouth, and give them warning from me.
18 Jika Aku memberitahukan bahwa seorang penjahat akan mati, tetapi engkau tidak memperingatkan dia supaya ia mengubah kelakuannya sehingga ia selamat, maka ia akan mati masih sebagai seorang berdosa, dan tanggung jawab atas kematiannya akan dituntut daripadamu.
When I say unto the wicked, Thou shalt surely die; and thou dost not give him warning, and speakest not to warn the wicked from his wicked way, to save his life: the same wicked man shall die through his iniquity; but his blood will I require at thy hand.
19 Jika engkau memperingatkan orang jahat itu dan ia tak mau berhenti berbuat jahat, dia akan mati sebagai orang berdosa, tetapi engkau sendiri akan selamat.
But thou, —if thou hast warned the wicked, and he turn not from his wickedness, nor from his wicked way: he shall indeed die in his iniquity; but thou hast surely delivered thy soul.
20 Kalau seorang yang baik mulai berbuat dosa, dan dia Kuhadapkan dengan bahaya, maka ia akan mati apabila engkau tidak memperingatkannya. Ia akan mati karena dosa-dosanya, dan perbuatan-perbuatannya yang baik tidak akan Kuingat. Tetapi tanggung jawab atas kematiannya itu akan Kutuntut daripadamu.
Again, When a righteous man do turn from his righteousness, and do what is wrong: then will I lay a stumbling-block before him, [so that] he shall die; yet if thou hast not given him warning, he shall die in his sin, and his acts of righteousness which he hath done shall not be remembered; but his blood will I require from thy hand.
21 Jika orang yang baik itu kauperingatkan supaya jangan berbuat dosa, dan ia menurut nasihatmu, maka dia tidak akan Kuhukum dan engkau akan selamat."
But if thou hast truly warned him, —the righteous, that the righteous should not sin, and he doth not sin: he shall surely live, because he attended to the warning, and thou hast surely delivered thy own soul.
22 Kurasakan kuatnya kehadiran TUHAN dan kudengar Ia mengatakan kepadaku, "Bangunlah dan pergilah ke lembah. Di sana Aku akan berbicara kepadamu."
And the inspiration of the Lord came there over me; and he said unto me, Arise, go forth into the valley, and there will I speak with thee.
23 Maka pergilah aku ke lembah, dan di situ kulihat terang kemilau yang menunjukkan kehadiran TUHAN seperti yang telah kulihat di tepi Sungai Kebar. Lalu aku jatuh tertelungkup di atas tanah,
And I arose, and went forth into the valley; and, behold, there was the glory of the Lord standing, like that glory which I had seen by the river Kebar: and I fell down on my face.
24 tetapi Roh Allah memasuki dan menegakkan aku. TUHAN berkata kepadaku, "Pulanglah dan berkurunglah di dalam rumah.
Then entered a spirit into me, and placed me upright on my feet, and spoke with me, and said unto me, Go, shut thyself up within thy house.
25 Hai manusia fana, engkau akan diikat dengan tali sehingga tak dapat keluar dan tak dapat bertemu dengan orang.
But thou, O son of man, behold, they put ropes upon thee, and bind thee with them, that thou canst not go out among them:
26 Aku akan membuat lidahmu kaku sehingga engkau tak dapat memperingatkan bangsa pemberontak ini.
And I will let thy tongue cleave to the roof of thy mouth, that thou shalt be dumb, and shalt not become to them a man who reproveth; for they are a rebellious family.
27 Nanti, kalau Aku berbicara kepadamu lagi dan mengembalikan kemampuanmu untuk berkata-kata, engkau harus menyampaikan apa yang Aku, TUHAN Yang Mahatinggi katakan kepada mereka. Sebagian dari mereka akan mendengarkan, tetapi sebagian lagi tidak, karena mereka memang bangsa pemberontak."
But when I speak with thee, I will open thy mouth, and thou shalt say unto them, Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, He that heareth, let him hear; and he that forbeareth, let him forebear; for they are a rebellious family.
