1 W iilka Aadamow, xabbad leben ah soo qaad oo hortaada dhig, oo waxaad ku dul taswiirtaa magaalo, taasoo ah Yeruusaalem,

“Now, son of man, get a hard clay block. Set it down in front of you and draw the city of Jerusalem on it.

2 o o iyada weerar, qalcadona ku hareeree, oo tuulmona ku tuul, oo xerooyinna hareereheeda ka dhis, oo wax lagu dumiyona ku wareeji.

Then build a battle-wall around it to shut it in, and build a hill of dirt against the wall. Cut down trees and lay them on wheels all around the city, to use for breaking down the walls.

3 O o weliba birdaawe soo qaad, oo waxaad ka dhigtaa derbi bir ah oo adiga iyo magaalada u dhexeeya, oo wejigaagana waxaad u sii jeedisaa xaggeeda, oo iyana waa la weerari doonaa, oo adiguna waa inaad iyada weerar u dhigtaa. Oo taasu calaamad bay u noqon doontaa reer binu Israa'iil.

Then get an iron plate and set it up as an iron wall between you and the city, and turn your face toward it. It will be shut in, and you will fight a battle against it. This will be something special for the people of Israel to see.

4 O o weliba dhinacaaga bidix u jiifso, oo waxaad kor saartaa xumaantii dadka dalka Israa'iil. Maalmaha aad ku jiifto inta tiradoodu tahay oo kale ayaad xumaantooda sidi doontaa.

“Then lie on your left side, and I will lay the sin of the people of Israel upon you. You will be under the weight of their sin for the number of days that you lie on your side.

5 W aayo, waxaan ku dul saaray sannadihii xumaantooda, inta maalmaha tiradoodu tahay saddex boqol iyo sagaashan maalmood, oo sidaasaad xumaanta dadka dalka Israa'iil u sidi doontaa.

I have set a number of days for you which is the same as the number of years of their sin, 390 days. This is how long you must be under the weight of the sin of the people of Israel.

6 O o markaad intaas dhammaysid, haddana waxaad u jiifsataa dhinacaaga midig, oo waxaad afartan maalmood sidi doontaa xumaantii dadka dalka Yahuudah, maalin kastaba sannad baan kaaga dhigay.

When you have completed these, you must lie down a second time, but on your right side. And you must be under the weight of the sin of the people of Judah. I have set a time of forty days for you to do this, one day for each year.

7 O o waxaad wejigaaga u jeedisaa weerarka Yeruusaalem xaggiisa, iyadoo gacantaadu qaawan tahay, oo waa inaad iyada wax ka sii sheegtaa.

Then you must turn your face toward the battle against Jerusalem with no covering on your arm, and tell what will happen against the city.

8 O o bal ogow, anigu xadhkaan kugu xidhxidhi doonaa, oo waa inaadan hadba dhinac isu rogin ilaa aad dhammaysid maalmihii weerarkaaga.

I will tie you up with ropes so that you cannot turn from one side to the other, until you have completed the days of your battle.

9 O o weliba waxaad soo qaadataa sarreen, iyo shaciir, iyo digir, iyo misir, iyo hadhuudh, iyo heed, oo kulligood isku weel ku shub, oo kibis ka samayso, oo maalmaha aad dhinaca u jiifto intay tiradoodu tahay in le'eg, oo ah saddex boqol iyo sagaashan maalmood, waa inaad cuntaa.

“Take wheat, barley, beans, lentils, millet and spelt and put them in one pot, and make them into bread for yourself. Eat it during the 390 days that you lie on your side.

10 O o cuntada aad cuni doontaana waa inay ahaataa mid la miisaamay, oo maalintii labaatan sheqel ayaa kuu go'an, oo waa inaad goor ka goor cuntaa.

The food you eat each day will weigh as much as twenty pieces of silver, and will have to last until the next day.

11 O o biyahana waa inaad qiyaas u cabtaa, oo waxaa kuu go'an hiin lix meelood loo dhigay meeshiis, oo waa inaad goor ka goor cabtaa.

And the water you drink each day will be enough to fill a bottle. You will drink it from time to time.

12 O o cuntadaadana waxaad u cuntaa sida kibis shaciireed oo kale, oo waxaad ku dubataa saxaro dad iyadoo ay indhaha ku hayaan.

Eat your food as you would barley cakes, making it ready in front of their eyes over a fire burning human waste.”

13 O o Rabbigu wuxuu yidhi, Sidaas oo kale ayaa reer binu Israa'iil kibistooda nijaasowday ugu dhex cuni doonaan quruumihii aan iyaga u kaxayn doonoba.

The Lord said, “In this way the people of Israel will eat unclean food among the nations where I will drive them.”

14 M arkaasaan idhi, Sayidow, Rabbiyow, bal eeg, naftaydu weligeed ma ay nijaasoobin, waayo, tan iyo yaraantaydii iyo ilaa haddatan marnaba ma aan cunin wax bakhtiyey ama wax bahal bakhtiistay toona, oo hilib karaahiyo ahuna innaba afkayga ma gelin.

But I said, “O Lord God! See, I have never been unclean. Since I was young until now, I have never eaten what died of itself or what was torn by wild animals. No unclean meat has ever come into my mouth.”

15 M arkaasuu igu yidhi, Bal eeg, saxaro dad waxaan kuugu beddelay saalo lo', oo waa inaad cuntadaada ku diyaarsataa.

So He said to me, “Then I will let you make your bread over cow’s waste instead of human waste.”

16 O o weliba wuxuu kaloo igu yidhi, Wiilka Aadamow, bal ogow, usha kibista ayaan Yeruusaalem ku dhex jebin doonaa, oo iyagu waxay kibista ku cuni doonaan miisaan iyo digtoonaan, oo biyahana waxay ku cabbi doonaan qiyaas iyo yaab,

And He said to me, “Son of man, I am going to take away the bread that is needed in Jerusalem. They will weigh the bread they eat and they will drink water from small cups, and be afraid

17 s i ay baad iyo biyo u waayaan oo uu midkoodba kan kale ula welwelo, oo ay xumaantooda aawadeed u wada baabba'aan.

because there will not be enough bread and water. They will look at one another in fear, and waste away in their sin.
