Ezekiela 11
1 Ary nisy fanahy nanainga ahy koa, dia nitondra ahy ho eo amin’ ny vavahady atsinanana amin’ ny tranon’ i Jehovah, dia ilay manatrika ny atsinanana; ary, indreo, nisy olona dimy amby roa-polo lahy teo anoloan’ ny vavahady; dia hitako teo amin’ ireo Jazania, zanak’ i Azora, sy Pelatia, zanak’ i Benaia, lehiben’ ny vahoaka.
Moreover the Spirit lifted me up, and brought me to the east gate of the LORD's house, which looks eastward: and see, at the door of the gate twenty-five men; and I saw in their midst Jaazaniah the son of Azzur, and Pelatiah the son of Benaiah, officials of the people.
2 Dia hoy Izy tamiko: Ry zanak’ olona, ireo no lehilahy izay mamoron-tsain-dratsy sady manolo-tsain-dratsy eto amin’ ity tanàna ity,
He said to me, "Son of man, these are the men who devise iniquity, and who give wicked counsel in this city;
3 dia izay manao hoe: Mbola lavitra ny hanaovana trano; ity tanàna ity no vilany, ary isika no hena;
who say, 'The time is not near to build houses: this is the caldron, and we are the meat.'
4 ka dia maminania hamely azy, eny, maminania, ry zanak’ olona.
Therefore prophesy against them, prophesy, son of man."
5 Ary tonga tao amiko ny Fanahin’ i Jehovah, ka hoy Izy tamiko: Lazao hoe: Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah: Izany no fiteninareo, ry taranak’ Isiraely, ary fantatro izay rehetra ao an-tsainareo.
The Spirit of the LORD fell on me, and he said to me, "Speak, Thus says the LORD: 'Thus you have said, house of Israel; for I know the things that come into your mind.
6 Hianareo efa nahamaro ny voavononareo teto amin’ ity tanàna ity, ary ny lalambeny efa nofenoinareo faty.
You have multiplied your slain in this city, and you have filled its streets with the slain.'
7 Koa izao no lazain’ i Jehovah Tompo: Ny voavononareo, izay nataonareo tao aminy, no hena, ary ity tanàna ity no vilany; nefa havoaka avy ao aminy ianareo.
Therefore thus says the LORD: 'Your slain whom you have laid in its midst, they are the meat, and this is the caldron; but I will bring you out of it.
8 Natahotra ny sabatra ianareo; nefa hataoko mahatratra anareo ihany ny sabatra, hoy Jehovah Tompo.
You have feared the sword; and I will bring the sword on you,' says the LORD.
9 Ary havoakako avy ato aminy ianareo ka hatolotro ho eny an-tànan’ ny hafa firenena, ary hanao fitsarana aminareo Aho.
'I will bring you forth out of its midst, and deliver you into the hands of strangers, and will execute judgments among you.
10 Ho lavon’ ny sabatra ianareo; any amin’ ny sisin-tanin’ ny Isiraely no hitsarako anareo, ka dia ho fantatrareo fa Izaho no Jehovah.
You shall fall by the sword; I will judge you in the border of Israel; and you shall know that I am the LORD.
11 Ity tanàna ity tsy ho vilaninareo, ary ianareo tsy ho hena ato anatiny; fa any amin’ ny sisin-tanin’ ny Isiraely no hitsarako anareo
This shall not be your caldron, neither shall you be the meat in its midst; I will judge you in the border of Israel;
12 ka dia ho fantatrareo fa Izaho no Jehovah, satria tsy nandeha araka ny lalàko ianareo na nanaraka ny fitsipiko, fa araka ny fitsipiky ny jentilisa izay manodidina anareo ihany no nataonareo.
and you shall know that I am the LORD: for you have not walked in my statutes, neither have you executed my ordinances, but have done after the ordinances of the nations that are around you.'"
13 Ary raha mbola naminany aho, dia maty Pelatia, zanak’ i Benaia. Dia niankohoka aho ka nitaraina tamin’ ny feo mahery nanao hoe: Indrisy! Jehovah Tompo ô, holevoninao va ny hany sisa amin’ ny Isiraely?
It happened, when I prophesied, that Pelatiah the son of Benaiah died. Then I fell down on my face, and cried with a loud voice, and said, "Ah, LORD. Will you make a full end of the remnant of Israel?"
14 Ary tonga tamiko ny tenin’ i Jehovah nanao hoe:
The word of the LORD came to me, saying,
15 Ry zanak’ olona, ny rahalahinao, eny, ny rahalahinao no andraikitrao, dia ny taranak’ Isiraely rehetra, izay nitenenan’ ny mponina any Jerosalema hoe: Manalavira an’ i Jehovah; izahay no nomena ity tany ity ho lova.
"Son of man, your brothers, the men of your relatives, and all the house of Israel, all of them, to whom the inhabitants of Jerusalem have said, 'Go far away from the LORD. This land has been given to us for a possession.'
16 Koa lazao hoe: Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah Tompo: Na dia nampandehaniko lavitra any amin’ ny jentilisa aza izy ka naeliko tany amin’ ny tany maro, dia ho fitoerana masìna ho azy vetivety Aho any amin’ ny tany izay alehany.
Therefore say, 'Thus says the LORD: "Whereas I have removed them far off among the nations, and whereas I have scattered them among the countries, yet will I be to them a sanctuary for a little while in the countries where they have come."'
17 Koa lazao hoe: Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah Tompo: Hovoriko avy any amin’ ny firenena ianareo, ary hangoniko avy any amin’ ny tany izay nampielezana anareo, ka homeko ny tanin’ ny Isiraely ianareo.
Therefore say, 'Thus says the LORD: "I will gather you from the peoples, and assemble you out of the countries where you have been scattered, and I will give you the land of Israel."
18 Ary ho tonga ao izy ka hanaisotra ny zava-dratsiny rehetra sy ny fahavetavetany rehetra.
They shall come there, and they shall take away all the detestable things of it and all its abominations from there.
19 Dia homeko fo iray izy, ary hasiako fanahy vaovao ao anatinareo; ary hesoriko amin’ ny nofony ny fo vato, ka homeko fo nofo izy,
I will give them one heart, and I will put a new spirit within you; and I will take the stony heart out of their flesh, and will give them a heart of flesh;
20 mba handehanany araka ny didiko sy hitandremany ny fitsipiko ka hanarahany izany, ary izy dia ho oloko, ary Izaho ho Andriamaniny.
that they may walk in my statutes, and keep my ordinances, and do them: and they shall be my people, and I will be their God.
21 Fa ny amin’ izay manana fo manina ny zava-dratsiny sy ny fahavetavetany, dia hatsingeriko ho eo an-dohany ihany ny nataony, hoy Jehovah Tompo.
But as for them whose heart walks after the heart of their detestable things and their abominations, I will bring their way on their own heads,' says the LORD."
22 Dia nasandratry ny kerobima ny elany sy ny kodia teo anilany; ary ny voninahitr’ Andriamanitry ny Isiraely no teo amboniny.
Then the cherubim lifted up their wings, and the wheels were beside them; and the glory of the God of Israel was over them above.
23 Ary ny voninahitr’ i Jehovah niakatra niala tao amin’ ny tanàna ka nijanona teo an-tampon’ ny tendrombohitra atsinanan’ ny tanàna.
The glory of the LORD went up from the midst of the city, and stood on the mountain which is on the east side of the city.
24 Dia nisy fanahy nanainga ahy tamin’ ny fahitana, dia tamin’ ny Fanahin’ Andriamanitra, ka nitondra ahy ho any Kaldea ho any amin’ ny babo. Dia niakatra niala tamiko ny fahitana izay efa hitako.
The Spirit lifted me up, and brought me in the vision by the Spirit of God into Chaldea, to them of the captivity. So the vision that I had seen went up from me.
25 Ary nolazaiko tamin’ ny babo ny teny rehetra izay nasehon’ i Jehovah ahy.
Then I spoke to them of the captivity all the things that the LORD had shown me.
