حِزْقِيَال 12

١ 1 وَكَانَ إِلَيَّ كَلَامُ ٱلرَّبِّ قَائِلًا:

And there is a word of YHWH to me, saying,

٢ 2 «يَا ٱبْنَ آدَمَ، أَنْتَ سَاكِنٌ فِي وَسْطِ بَيْتٍ مُتَمَرِّدٍ، ٱلَّذِينَ لَهُمْ أَعْيُنٌ لِيَنْظُرُوا وَلَا يَنْظُرُونَ. لَهُمْ آذَانٌ لِيَسْمَعُوا وَلَا يَسْمَعُونَ، لِأَنَّهُمْ بَيْتٌ مُتَمَرِّدٌ.

“Son of man, you are dwelling in the midst of the house of rebellion, that have eyes to see, and they have not seen; they have ears to hear, and they have not heard; for they [are] a house of rebellion.

٣ 3 وَأَنْتَ يَا ٱبْنَ آدَمَ، فَهَيِّئْ لِنَفْسِكَ أُهْبَةَ جَلَاءٍ، وَٱرْتَحِلْ قُدَّامَ عُيُونِهِمْ نَهَارًا، وَٱرْتَحِلْ مِنْ مَكَانِكَ إِلَى مَكَانٍ آخَرَ قُدَّامَ عُيُونِهِمْ، لَعَلَّهُمْ يَنْظُرُونَ أَنَّهُمْ بَيْتٌ مُتَمَرِّدٌ.

And you, son of man, make your vessels of removal, and remove by day before their eyes, and you have removed from your place to another place before their eyes, it may be they consider, for they [are] a house of rebellion.

٤ 4 فَتُخْرِجُ أُهْبَتَكَ كَأُهْبَةِ ٱلْجَلَاءِ قُدَّامَ عُيُونِهِمْ نَهَارًا، وَأَنْتَ تَخْرُجُ مَسَاءً قُدَّامَ عُيُونِهِمْ كَٱلْخَارِجِينَ إِلَى ٱلْجَلَاءِ.

And you have brought forth your vessels as vessels of removal by day before their eyes, and you go forth in the evening before their eyes, as the goings forth of a removal.

٥ 5 وَٱنْقُبْ لِنَفْسِكَ فِي ٱلْحَائِطِ قُدَّامَ عُيُونِهِمْ وَأَخْرِجْهَا مِنْهُ.

You dig through the wall before their eyes, and you have brought forth by it.

٦ 6 وَٱحْمِلْ عَلَى كَتِفِكَ قُدَّامَ عُيُونِهِمْ. فِي ٱلْعَتَمَةِ تُخْرِجُهَا. تُغَطِّي وَجْهَكَ فَلَا تَرَى ٱلْأَرْضَ. لِأَنِّي جَعَلْتُكَ آيَةً لِبَيْتِ إِسْرَائِيلَ».

Carry on the shoulder before their eyes, bring forth in the darkness, cover your face, and you do not see the earth, for I have given you [as] a sign to the house of Israel.”

٧ 7 فَفَعَلْتُ هَكَذَا كَمَا أُمِرْتُ، فَأَخْرَجْتُ أُهْبَتِي كَأُهْبَةِ ٱلْجَلَاءِ نَهَارًا، وَفِي ٱلْمَسَاءِ نَقَبْتُ لِنَفْسِي فِي ٱلْحَائِطِ بِيَدِي، وَأَخْرَجْتُ فِي ٱلْعَتَمَةِ، وَحَمَلْتُ عَلَى كَتِفِي قُدَّامَ عُيُونِهِمْ.

And I do so, as I have been commanded; I have brought forth my vessels as vessels of removal by day, and I have dug through the wall with my hand in the evening; I have brought forth in the darkness, I have carried away on the shoulder, before their eyes.

٨ 8 وَفِي ٱلصَّبَاحِ كَانَتْ إِلَيَّ كَلِمَةُ ٱلرَّبِّ قَائِلَةً:

And there is a word of YHWH to me, in the morning, saying,

٩ 9 «يَا ٱبْنَ آدَمَ، أَلَمْ يَقُلْ لَكَ بَيْتُ إِسْرَائِيلَ، ٱلْبَيْتُ ٱلْمُتَمَرِّدُ: مَاذَا تَصْنَعُ؟

“Son of man, have they not said to you—the house of Israel—the house of rebellion—What are you doing?

١٠ 10 قُلْ لَهُمْ: هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ. هَذَا ٱلْوَحْيُ هُوَ ٱلرَّئِيسُ فِي أُورُشَلِيمَ وَكُلِّ بَيْتِ إِسْرَائِيلَ وَٱلَّذِينَ هُمْ فِي وَسْطِهِمْ.

Say to them, Thus said Lord YHWH: This burden [concerns] the prince in Jerusalem, and all the house of Israel who are in their midst.

١١ 11 قُلْ: أَنَا آيَةٌ لَكُمْ. كَمَا صَنَعْتُ هَكَذَا يُصْنَعُ بِهِمْ. إِلَى ٱلْجَلَاءِ إِلَى ٱلسَّبْيِ يَذْهَبُونَ.

Say: I [am] your sign; as I have done so it is done to them, into a removal, into a captivity, they go.

١٢ 12 وَٱلرَّئِيسُ ٱلَّذِي فِي وَسْطِهِمْ يَحْمِلُ عَلَى ٱلْكَتِفِ فِي ٱلْعَتَمَةِ وَيَخْرُجُ. يَنْقُبُونَ فِي ٱلْحَائِطِ لِيُخْرِجُوا مِنْهُ. يُغَطِّي وَجْهَهُ لِكَيْلَا يَنْظُرَ ٱلْأَرْضَ بِعَيْنَيْهِ.

As for the prince who [is] in their midst, he carries on the shoulder in the darkness, and he goes forth; they dig through the wall to bring forth by it; he covers his face that he may not look on the very surface of the land.

١٣ 13 وَأَبْسُطُ شَبَكَتِي عَلَيْهِ فَيُؤْخَذُ فِي شَرَكِي، وَآتِي بِهِ إِلَى بَابِلَ إِلَى أَرْضِ ٱلْكَلْدَانِيِّينَ، وَلَكِنْ لَا يَرَاهَا وَهُنَاكَ يَمُوتُ.

And I have spread My net for him, and he has been caught in My snare, and I have brought him to Babylon, the land of the Chaldeans, and he does not see it—and he dies there.

١٤ 14 وَأُذَرِّي فِي كُلِّ رِيحٍ جَمِيعَ ٱلَّذِينَ حَوْلَهُ لِنَصْرِهِ، وَكُلَّ جُيُوشِهِ، وَأَسْتَلُّ ٱلسَّيْفَ وَرَاءَهُمْ.

And all who are around him to help him, and all his bands, I scatter to every wind, and I draw out a sword after them.

١٥ 15 فَيَعْلَمُونَ أَنِّي أَنَا ٱلرَّبُّ حِينَ أُبَدِّدُهُمْ بَيْنَ ٱلْأُمَمِ وَأُذَرِّيهِمْ فِي ٱلْأَرَاضِي.

And they have known that I [am] YHWH, in My scattering them among nations, and I have spread them through lands;

١٦ 16 وَأُبْقِي مِنْهُمْ رِجَالًا مَعْدُودِينَ مِنَ ٱلسَّيْفِ وَمِنَ ٱلْجُوعِ وَمِنَ ٱلْوَبَإِ، لِكَيْ يُحَدِّثُوا بِكُلِّ رَجَاسَاتِهِمْ بَيْنَ ٱلْأُمَمِ ٱلَّتِي يَأْتُونَ إِلَيْهَا، فَيَعْلَمُونَ أَنِّي أَنَا ٱلرَّبُّ».

and I have left of them, a few in number, from the sword, from the famine, and from the pestilence, so that they recount all their abominations among the nations to where they have come, and they have known that I [am] YHWH.”

١٧ 17 وَكَانَتْ إِلَيَّ كَلِمَةُ ٱلرَّبِّ قَائِلَةً:

And there is a word of YHWH to me, saying,

١٨ 18 «يَا ٱبْنَ آدَمَ، كُلْ خُبْزَكَ بِٱرْتِعَاشٍ، وَٱشْرَبْ مَاءَكَ بِٱرْتِعَادٍ وَغَمٍّ.

“Son of man, eat your bread in haste, and drink your water with trembling and with fear;

١٩ 19 وَقُلْ لِشَعْبِ ٱلْأَرْضِ: هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ عَلَى سُكَّانِ أُورُشَلِيمَ فِي أَرْضِ إِسْرَائِيلَ: يَأْكُلُونَ خُبْزَهُمْ بِٱلْغَمِّ، وَيَشْرَبُونَ مَاءَهُمْ بِحَيْرَةٍ، لِكَيْ تَخْرَبَ أَرْضُهَا عَنْ مِلْئِهَا مِنْ ظُلْمِ كُلِّ ٱلسَّاكِنِينَ فِيهَا.

and you have said to the people of the land, Thus said Lord YHWH concerning the inhabitants of Jerusalem, concerning the land of Israel: They eat their bread with fear, and drink their water with astonishment, because its land is desolate, because of its fullness, because of the violence of all who are dwelling in it.

٢٠ 20 وَٱلْمُدُنُ ٱلْمَسْكُونَةُ تَخْرَبُ، وَٱلْأَرْضُ تُقْفِرُ، فَتَعْلَمُونَ أَنِّي أَنَا ٱلرَّبُّ».

And the cities that are inhabited are laid waste, and the land is a desolation, and you have known that I [am] YHWH.”

٢١ 21 وَكَانَ إِلَيَّ كَلَامُ ٱلرَّبِّ قَائِلًا:

And there is a word of YHWH to me, saying,

٢٢ 22 «يَا ٱبْنَ آدَمَ، مَا هَذَا ٱلْمَثَلُ ٱلَّذِي لَكُمْ عَلَى أَرْضِ إِسْرَائِيلَ، ٱلْقَائِلُ: قَدْ طَالَتِ ٱلْأَيَّامُ وَخَابَتْ كُلُّ رُؤْيَا.

“Son of man, what [is] this allegory to you, concerning the land of Israel, saying, The days are prolonged, and every vision has perished?

٢٣ 23 لِذَلِكَ قُلْ لَهُمْ: هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ: أُبَطِّلُ هَذَا ٱلْمَثَلَ فَلَا يُمَثِّلُونَ بِهِ بَعْدُ فِي إِسْرَائِيلَ. بَلْ قُلْ لَهُمْ: قَدِ ٱقْتَرَبَتِ ٱلْأَيَّامُ وَكَلَامُ كُلِّ رُؤْيَا.

Therefore say to them, Thus said Lord YHWH: I have caused this allegory to cease, And they do not use it as an allegory in Israel again, But speak to them: The days have drawn near, And every vision has spoken.

٢٤ 24 لِأَنَّهُ لَا تَكُونُ بَعْدُ رُؤْيَا بَاطِلَةٌ وَلَا عِرَافَةٌ مَلِقَةٌ فِي وَسْطِ بَيْتِ إِسْرَائِيلَ.

For there is no longer any vain vision, and flattering divination, In the midst of the house of Israel.

٢٥ 25 لِأَنِّي أَنَا ٱلرَّبُّ أَتَكَلَّمُ، وَٱلْكَلِمَةُ ٱلَّتِي أَتَكَلَّمُ بِهَا تَكُونُ. لَا تَطُولُ بَعْدُ. لِأَنِّي فِي أَيَّامِكُمْ أَيُّهَا ٱلْبَيْتُ ٱلْمُتَمَرِّدُ أَقُولُ ٱلْكَلِمَةَ وَأُجْرِيهَا، يَقُولُ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ».

For I, YHWH, speak, The word that I speak—it is done, It is not prolonged anymore, For in your days, O house of rebellion, I speak a word, and I have done it, A declaration of Lord YHWH.”

٢٦ 26 وَكَانَ إِلَيَّ كَلَامُ ٱلرَّبِّ قَائِلًا:

And there is a word of YHWH to me, saying,

٢٧ 27 «يَا ٱبْنَ آدَمَ، هُوَذَا بَيْتُ إِسْرَائِيلَ قَائِلُونَ: ٱلرُّؤْيَا ٱلَّتِي هُوَ رَائِيهَا هِيَ إِلَى أَيَّامٍ كَثِيرَةٍ، وَهُوَ مُتَنَبِّئٌ لِأَزْمِنَةٍ بَعِيدَةٍ.

“Son of man, behold, the house of Israel is saying, The vision that he is seeing [is not] for many days, and he is prophesying of far-off times,

٢٨ 28 لِذَلِكَ قُلْ لَهُمْ: هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ: لَا يَطُولُ بَعْدُ شَيْءٌ مِنْ كَلَامِي. اَلْكَلِمَةُ ٱلَّتِي تَكَلَّمْتُ بِهَا تَكُونُ، يَقُولُ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ».

therefore say to them, Thus said Lord YHWH: None of My words are prolonged anymore, When I speak a word—it is done, A declaration of Lord YHWH!”
