Endagaano Enkadde nʼEndagaano Empya
3 Awo n’aŋŋamba nti, “Omwana w’omuntu, lya ekiri mu maaso go, lya omuzingo gw’empapula guno; oluvannyuma ogende oyogere eri ennyumba ya Isirayiri.” 2 Ne njasama, n’ampa omuzingo gw’empapula ne ngulya.
3 (A)N’aŋŋamba nti, “Omwana w’omuntu, lya omuzingo gw’empapula gwe nkuwa, ojjuze olubuto lwo.” Ne ngulya, ne guwoomerera ng’omubisi gw’enjuki.
4 Oluvannyuma n’aŋŋamba nti, “Omwana w’omuntu, kaakano laga eri ennyumba ya Isirayiri oyogere ebigambo byange gye bali. 5 (B)Sikutuma eri eggwanga eririna enjogera etategeerekeka era abalina olulimi oluzibu, b’otayinza kutegeera mu njogera, naye eri ennyumba ya Isirayiri, 6 (C)so si eri abantu abangi abalina enjogera etategeerekeka era abalina olulimi oluzibu, b’otayinza kutegeera bye bagamba. Mazima singa nakutuma gye bali, bandikuwulirizza. 7 (D)Naye ennyumba ya Isirayiri si beetegefu kukuwuliriza kubanga si beetegefu kumpuliriza; era ennyumba ya Isirayiri yonna balina ekyenyi kikalubo n’emitima mikakanyavu. 8 (E)Naye naawe ndikufuula omukalubo era omukakanyavu mu mutima nga bo. 9 (F)Ndifuula ekyenyi kyo okuba ng’ejjinja erikaluba ennyo, erikaluba ng’ejjinja ery’embaalebaale. Tobatya so totiisibwatiisibwa, newaakubadde nga nnyumba njeemu.” 10 N’aŋŋamba nti, “Omwana w’omuntu, wuliriza bulungi era okwate ebigambo byonna bye njogera naawe. 11 (G)Genda kaakano eri abantu bo, mu buwaŋŋanguse, oyogere nabo. Bagambe nti, Bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda, obanga banaawulira, obanga tebaawulire.”
12 (H)Awo Omwoyo n’ansitula, ne mpulira emabega wange eddoboozi ng’okuwuluguma okunene nga lyogera nti, “Ekitiibwa kya Mukama kyebazibwe mu kifo gy’abeera.” 13 (I)Okuwuuma okw’ebiwaawaatiro by’ebiramu nga bikuubagana, n’okuwuuma kwa zinnamuziga ku mabbali gaabyo kwali ng’okuwuluguma okw’amaanyi. 14 Omwoyo n’ansitula n’antwala, ne ŋŋendera mu buyinike ne mu busungu, ng’omukono gwa Mukama ogw’amaanyi guli ku nze. 15 (J)Ne ntuuka mu kifo ekimu awaali abawaŋŋanguse e Terabibu ku mugga Kebali, ne ntuula mu bo okumala ennaku musanvu, nga nsamaaliridde.
Okulabula Isirayiri
16 (K)Oluvannyuma lw’ennaku omusanvu ekigambo kya Mukama ne kinzijira: 17 (L)“Omwana w’omuntu, nkufudde omukuumi w’ennyumba ya Isirayiri, era buli lw’onoowuliranga ekigambo kye nnaayogeranga, balabulenga. 18 (M)Bwe ŋŋamba atali mutuukirivu nti, ‘Mazima tolirema kufa,’ n’otamulabula newaakubadde okwogera naye ng’omulabula alekeyo engeri ze ezitali za butuukirivu asobole okuwonya obulamu bwe, omuntu oyo atali mutuukirivu alifa olw’obutali butuukirivu bwe, naye omusaayi gwe ndiguvunaana ggwe. 19 (N)Naye bw’olirabula omuntu atali mutuukirivu, n’atalekaayo obutali butuukirivu, newaakubadde engeri ze embi, alifa olw’ekibi kye, naye obulamu bwo bulilokolebwa.
20 (O)“Ate era bw’alireka ebikolwa bye eby’obutuukirivu n’akola ebibi, ne nteeka enkonge mu maaso ge, alifa. Olw’okubanga tewamulabula, alifa olw’ekibi kye. Ebikolwa eby’obutuukirivu bye yakola tebirijjukirwa, era ndikuvunaana olw’omusaayi gwe. 21 (P)Kyokka bw’olabulanga omutuukirivu obutayonoona, n’atayonoona, ddala ddala aliba mulamu kubanga yawulira okulabula kwo, era naawe oliba weerokodde.”
22 (Q)Omukono gwa Mukama gw’andiko eyo, n’aŋŋamba nti, “Golokoka olage ku ttale, era eyo gye nnaayogerera naawe.” 23 (R)Ne nsituka ne ndaga ku ttale. Ekitiibwa kya Mukama kyaliwo, nga kifaanana ekitiibwa kye nalaba ku Mugga Kebali; ne neeyala wansi.
24 (S)Awo Omwoyo n’anzikako, n’annyimusa okuva we nnali, n’aŋŋamba nti, “Genda weggalire mu nnyumba yo. 25 (T)Ggwe omwana w’omuntu balikusiba emiguwa, n’olemwa okugenda okulaba abantu bo. 26 (U)Ndiziba akamwa ko, n’osirikira ddala, n’olema okubanenya, newaakubadde nga nnyumba njeemu. 27 (V)Kyokka bwe ndyogera gy’oli, ndizibula akamwa ko era olibagamba nti, ‘Bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama Ayinzabyonna.’ Aliwuliriza kale aliwuliriza, n’oyo aligaana okuwuliriza naye muleke agaane okuwuliriza; nnyumba njeemu.”
Ezekiel 3
New International Version
Ezekiel 3
New International Version
3 And he said to me, “Son of man, eat what is before you, eat this scroll; then go and speak to the people of Israel.” 2 So I opened my mouth, and he gave me the scroll to eat.
3 Then he said to me, “Son of man, eat this scroll I am giving you and fill your stomach with it.” So I ate(A) it, and it tasted as sweet as honey(B) in my mouth.
4 He then said to me: “Son of man, go now to the people of Israel and speak my words to them.(C) 5 You are not being sent to a people of obscure speech and strange language,(D) but to the people of Israel— 6 not to many peoples of obscure speech and strange language, whose words you cannot understand. Surely if I had sent you to them, they would have listened to you.(E) 7 But the people of Israel are not willing to listen(F) to you because they are not willing to listen to me, for all the Israelites are hardened and obstinate.(G) 8 But I will make you as unyielding and hardened as they are.(H) 9 I will make your forehead(I) like the hardest stone, harder than flint.(J) Do not be afraid of them or terrified by them, though they are a rebellious people.(K)”
10 And he said to me, “Son of man, listen carefully and take to heart(L) all the words I speak to you. 11 Go(M) now to your people in exile and speak to them. Say to them, ‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says,’(N) whether they listen or fail to listen.(O)”
12 Then the Spirit lifted me up,(P) and I heard behind me a loud rumbling sound as the glory of the Lord rose from the place where it was standing.[a] 13 It was the sound of the wings of the living creatures(Q) brushing against each other and the sound of the wheels beside them, a loud rumbling sound.(R) 14 The Spirit(S) then lifted me up(T) and took me away, and I went in bitterness and in the anger of my spirit, with the strong hand of the Lord(U) on me. 15 I came to the exiles who lived at Tel Aviv near the Kebar River.(V) And there, where they were living, I sat among them for seven days(W)—deeply distressed.
Ezekiel’s Task as Watchman
16 At the end of seven days the word of the Lord came to me:(X) 17 “Son of man, I have made you a watchman(Y) for the people of Israel; so hear the word I speak and give them warning from me.(Z) 18 When I say to a wicked person, ‘You will surely die,(AA)’ and you do not warn them or speak out to dissuade them from their evil ways in order to save their life, that wicked person will die for[b] their sin, and I will hold you accountable for their blood.(AB) 19 But if you do warn the wicked person and they do not turn(AC) from their wickedness(AD) or from their evil ways, they will die(AE) for their sin; but you will have saved yourself.(AF)
20 “Again, when a righteous person turns(AG) from their righteousness and does evil, and I put a stumbling block(AH) before them, they will die. Since you did not warn them, they will die for their sin. The righteous things that person did will not be remembered, and I will hold you accountable for their blood.(AI) 21 But if you do warn the righteous person not to sin and they do not sin, they will surely live because they took warning, and you will have saved yourself.(AJ)”
22 The hand of the Lord(AK) was on me there, and he said to me, “Get up and go(AL) out to the plain,(AM) and there I will speak to you.” 23 So I got up and went out to the plain. And the glory of the Lord was standing there, like the glory I had seen by the Kebar River,(AN) and I fell facedown.(AO)
24 Then the Spirit came into me and raised me(AP) to my feet. He spoke to me and said: “Go, shut yourself inside your house.(AQ) 25 And you, son of man, they will tie with ropes; you will be bound so that you cannot go out among the people.(AR) 26 I will make your tongue stick to the roof(AS) of your mouth so that you will be silent and unable to rebuke them, for they are a rebellious people.(AT) 27 But when I speak to you, I will open your mouth and you shall say to them, ‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says.’(AU) Whoever will listen let them listen, and whoever will refuse let them refuse; for they are a rebellious people.(AV)
