< حِزْقِيَال 21 >
وَكَانَ إِلَيَّ كَلَامُ ٱلرَّبِّ قَائِلًا: | ١ 1 |
And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
«يَا ٱبْنَ آدَمَ، ٱجْعَلْ وَجْهَكَ نَحْوَ أُورُشَلِيمَ، وَتَكَلَّمْ عَلَى ٱلْمَقَادِسِ، وَتَنَبَّأْ عَلَى أَرْضِ إِسْرَائِيلَ، | ٢ 2 |
Son of man, set thy face toward Jerusalem, and let thy speech flow towards the holy places, and prophesy against the land of Israel:
وَقُلْ لِأَرْضِ إِسْرَائِيلَ: هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ: هَأَنَذَا عَلَيْكِ، وَأَسْتَلُّ سَيْفِي مِنْ غِمْدِهِ فَأَقْطَعُ مِنْكِ ٱلصِّدِّيقَ وَٱلشِّرِّيرَ. | ٣ 3 |
And say to the land of Israel: Thus saith the Lord God: Behold I come against thee, and I will draw forth my sword out of its sheath, and will cut off in thee the just, and the wicked.
مِنْ حَيْثُ أَنِّي أَقْطَعُ مِنْكِ ٱلصِّدِّيقَ وَٱلشِّرِّيرَ، فَلِذَلِكَ يَخْرُجُ سَيْفِي مِنْ غِمْدِهِ عَلَى كُلِّ بَشَرٍ مِنَ ٱلْجَنُوبِ إِلَى ٱلشِّمَالِ. | ٤ 4 |
And forasmuch as I have cut off in thee the just, and the wicked, therefore shall my sword go forth out of its sheath against all flesh, from the south even to the north.
فَيَعْلَمُ كُلُّ بَشَرٍ أَنِّي أَنَا ٱلرَّبُّ، سَلَلْتُ سَيْفِي مِنْ غِمْدِهِ. لَا يَرْجِعُ أَيْضًا. | ٥ 5 |
That all flesh may know that I the Lord have drawn my sword out of its sheath not to be turned back.
أَمَّا أَنْتَ يَا ٱبْنَ آدَمَ، فَتَنَهَّدْ بِٱنْكِسَارِ ٱلْحَقَوَيْنِ، وَبِمَرَارَةٍ تَنَهَّدْ أَمَامَ عُيُونِهِمْ. | ٦ 6 |
And thou, son of man, mourn with the breaking of thy loins, and with bitterness sigh before them.
وَيَكُونُ إِذَا قَالُوا لَكَ: عَلَى مَ تَتَنَهَّدُ؟ أَنَّكَ تَقُولُ: عَلَى ٱلْخَبَرِ، لِأَنَّهُ جَاءٍ فَيَذُوبُ كُلُّ قَلْبٍ، وَتَرْتَخِي كُلُّ ٱلْأَيْدِي، وَتَيْأَسُ كُلُّ رُوحٍ، وَكُلُّ ٱلرُّكَبِ تَصِيرُ كَٱلْمَاءِ، هَا هِيَ آتِيَةٌ وَتَكُونُ، يَقُولُ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ». | ٧ 7 |
And when they shall say to thee: Why mournest thou? thou shalt say: For that which I hear: because it cometh, and every heart shall melt, and all hands shall be made feeble, and every spirit shall faint, and water shall run down every knee: behold it cometh, and it shall be done, saith the Lord God.
وَكَانَ إِلَيَّ كَلَامُ ٱلرَّبِّ قَائِلًا: | ٨ 8 |
And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
«يَا ٱبْنَ آدَمَ، تَنَبَّأْ وَقُلْ: هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ: قُلْ: سَيْفٌ سَيْفٌ حُدِّدَ وَصُقِلَ أَيْضًا. | ٩ 9 |
Son of man, prophesy, and say: Thus saith the Lord God: Say: The sword, the sword is sharpened, and furbished.
قَدْ حُدِّدَ لِيَذْبَحَ ذَبْحًا. قَدْ صُقِلَ لِكَيْ يَبْرُقَ. فَهَلْ نَبْتَهِجُ؟ عَصَا ٱبْنِي تَزْدَرِي بِكُلِّ عُودٍ. | ١٠ 10 |
It is sharpened to kill victims: it is furbished that it may glitter: thou removest the sceptre of my son, thou hast cut down every tree.
وَقَدْ أَعْطَاهُ لِيُصْقَلَ لِكَيْ يُمْسَكَ بِٱلْكَفِّ. هَذَا ٱلسَّيْفُ قَدْ حُدِّدَ وَهُوَ مَصْقُولٌ لِكَيْ يُسَلَّمَ لِيَدِ ٱلْقَاتِلِ. | ١١ 11 |
And I have given it to be furbished, that it may be handled: this sword is sharpened, and it is furbished, that it may be in the hand of the slayer.
ٱصْرُخْ وَوَلْوِلْ يَا ٱبْنَ آدَمَ، لِأَنَّهُ يَكُونُ عَلَى شَعْبِي وَعَلَى كُلِّ رُؤَسَاءِ إِسْرَائِيلَ. أَهْوَالٌ بِسَبَبِ ٱلسَّيْفِ تَكُونُ عَلَى شَعْبِي. لِذَلِكَ ٱصْفِقْ عَلَى فَخْذِكَ. | ١٢ 12 |
Cry, and howl, O son of man, for this sword is upon my people, it is upon all the princes of Israel, that are fled: they are delivered up to the sword with my people, strike therefore upon thy thigh,
لِأَنَّهُ ٱمْتِحَانٌ. وَمَاذَا إِنْ لَمْ تَكُنْ أَيْضًا ٱلْعَصَا ٱلْمُزْدَرِيَةُ؟ يَقُولُ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ. | ١٣ 13 |
Because it is tried: and that when it shall overthrow the sceptre, and it shall not be, saith the Lord God.
فَتَنَبَّأْ أَنْتَ يَا ٱبْنَ آدَمَ وَٱصْفِقْ كَفًّا عَلَى كَفٍّ، وَلْيُعَدِ ٱلسَّيْفُ ثَالِثَةً. هُوَ سَيْفُ ٱلْقَتْلَى، سَيْفُ ٱلْقَتْلِ ٱلْعَظِيمِ ٱلْمُحِيقُ بِهِمْ. | ١٤ 14 |
Thou therefore, O son of man, prophesy, and strike thy hands together, and let the sword be doubled, and let the sword of the slain be tripled: this is the sword of a great slaughter, that maketh them stand amazed,
لِذَوَبَانِ ٱلْقَلْبِ وَتَكْثِيرِ ٱلْمَهَالِكِ، لِذَلِكَ جَعَلْتُ عَلَى كُلِّ ٱلْأَبْوَابِ سَيْفًا مُتَقَلِّبًا. آهِ! قَدْ جُعِلَ بَرَّاقًا. هُوَ مَصْقُولٌ لِلذَّبْحِ. | ١٥ 15 |
And languish in heart, and that multiplieth ruins. In all their gates I have set the dread of the sharp sword, the sword that is furbished to glitter, that is made ready for slaughter.
ٱنْضَمَّ يَمِّنِ، ٱنْتَصِبْ شَمِّلْ، حَيْثُمَا تَوَجَّهَ حَدُّكَ. | ١٦ 16 |
Be thou sharpened, go to the right hand, or to the left, which way soever thou hast a mind to set thy face.
وَأَنَا أَيْضًا أُصَفِّقُ كَفِّي عَلَى كَفِّي وَأُسَكِّنُ غَضَبِي. أَنَا ٱلرَّبُّ تَكَلَّمْتُ». | ١٧ 17 |
And I will clap my hands together, and will satisfy my indignation: I the Lord have spoken.
وَكَانَ إِلَيَّ كَلَامُ ٱلرَّبِّ قَائِلًا: | ١٨ 18 |
And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
«وَأَنْتَ يَاٱبْنَ آدَمَ، عَيِّنْ لِنَفْسِكَ طَرِيقَيْنِ لِمَجِيءِ سَيْفِ مَلِكِ بَابِلَ. مِنْ أَرْضٍ وَاحِدَةٍ تَخْرُجُ ٱلِٱثْنَتَانِ. وَٱصْنَعْ صُوَّةً، عَلَى رَأْسِ طَرِيقِ ٱلْمَدِينَةِ ٱصْنَعْهَا. | ١٩ 19 |
And thou son of man, set thee two ways, for the sword of the king of Babylon to come: both shall come forth out of one land: and with his hand he shall draw lots, he shall consult at the head of the way of the city.
عَيِّنْ طَرِيقًا لِيَأْتِيَ ٱلسَّيْفُ عَلَى رَبَّةِ بَنِي عَمُّونَ، وَعَلَى يَهُوذَا فِي أُورُشَلِيمَ ٱلْمَنِيعَةِ. | ٢٠ 20 |
Thou shalt make a way that the sword may come to Rabbath of the children of Ammon, and to Juda unto Jerusalem the strong city.
لِأَنَّ مَلِكَ بَابِلَ قَدْ وَقَفَ عَلَى أُمِّ ٱلطَّرِيقِ، عَلَى رَأْسِ ٱلطَّرِيقَيْنِ لِيَعْرِفَ عِرَافَةً. صَقَلَ ٱلسِّهَامَ، سَأَلَ بِٱلتَّرَافِيمِ، نَظَرَ إِلَى ٱلْكَبِدِ. | ٢١ 21 |
For the king of Babylon stood in the highway, at the head of two ways, seeking divination, shuffling arrows: he inquired of the idols, and consulted entrails.
عَنْ يَمِينِهِ كَانَتِ ٱلْعِرَافَةُ عَلَى أُورُشَلِيمَ لِوَضْعِ ٱلْمَجَانِقِ، لِفَتْحِ ٱلْفَمِ فِي ٱلْقَتْلِ، وَلِرَفْعِ ٱلصَّوْتِ بِٱلْهُتَافِ، لِوَضْعِ ٱلْمَجَانِقِ عَلَى ٱلْأَبْوَابِ، لِإِقَامَةِ مِتْرَسَةٍ لِبِنَاءِ بُرْجٍ. | ٢٢ 22 |
On his right hand was the divination for Jerusalem, to set battering rams, to open the mouth in slaughter, to lift up the voice in howling, to set engines against the gates, to cast up a mount, to build forts.
وَتَكُونُ لَهُمْ مِثْلَ عِرَافَةٍ كَاذِبَةٍ فِي عُيُونِهِمِ ٱلْحَالِفِينَ لَهُمْ حَلْفًا. لَكِنَّهُ يَذْكُرُ ٱلْإِثْمَ حَتَّى يُؤْخَذُوا. | ٢٣ 23 |
And he shall be in their eyes as one consulting the oracle in vain, and imitating the leisure of sabbaths: but he will call to remembrance the iniquity that they may be taken.
لِذَلِكَ هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ: مِنْ أَجْلِ أَنَّكُمْ ذَكَّرْتُمْ بِإِثْمِكُمْ عِنْدَ ٱنْكِشَافِ مَعَاصِيكُمْ لِإِظْهَارِ خَطَايَاكُمْ فِي جَمِيعِ أَعْمَالِكُمْ، فَمِنْ تَذْكِيرِكُمْ تُؤْخَذُونَ بِٱلْيَدِ. | ٢٤ 24 |
Therefore thus saith the Lord God: Because you have remembered your iniquity, and have discovered your prevarications, and your sins have appeared in all your devices: because, I say, you have remembered, you shall be taken with the hand.
«وَأَنْتَ أَيُّهَا ٱلنَّجِسُ ٱلشِّرِّيرُ، رَئِيسُ إِسْرَائِيلَ، ٱلَّذِي قَدْ جَاءَ يَوْمُهُ فِي زَمَانِ إِثْمِ ٱلنِّهَايَةِ، | ٢٥ 25 |
But thou profane wicked prince of Israel, whose day is come that hath been appointed in the time of iniquity:
هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ: ٱنْزِعِ ٱلْعَمَامَةَ. ٱرْفَعِ ٱلتَّاجَ. هَذِهِ لَا تِلْكَ. ٱرْفَعِ ٱلْوَضِيعَ، وَضَعِ ٱلرَّفِيعَ. | ٢٦ 26 |
Thus saith the Lord God: Remove the diadem, take off the crown: is it not this that hath exalted the low one, and brought down him that was high?
مُنْقَلِبًا، مُنْقَلِبًا، مُنْقَلِبًا أَجْعَلُهُ! هَذَا أَيْضًا لَا يَكُونُ حَتَّى يَأْتِيَ ٱلَّذِي لَهُ ٱلْحُكْمُ فَأُعْطِيَهُ إِيَّاهُ. | ٢٧ 27 |
I will shew it to be iniquity, iniquity, iniquity: but this was not done till he came to whom judgment belongeth, and I will give it him.
«وَأَنْتَ يَا ٱبْنَ آدَمَ، فَتَنَبَّأْ وَقُلْ: هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ، فِي بَنِي عَمُّونَ وَفِي تَعْيِيرِهِمْ، فَقُلْ: سَيْفٌ، سَيْفٌ مَسْلُولٌ لِلذَّبْحِ! مَصْقُولٌ لِلْغَايَةِ لِلْبَرِيقِ. | ٢٨ 28 |
And thou son of man, prophesy, and say: Thus saith the Lord God concerning the children of Ammon, and concerning their reproach, and thou shalt say: sword, O sword, come out of the scabbard to kill, be furbished to destroy, and to glitter,
إِذْ يَرَوْنَ لَكَ بَاطِلًا، إِذْ يَعْرِفُونَ لَكَ كَذِبًا، لِيَجْعَلُوكَ عَلَى أَعْنَاقِ ٱلْقَتْلَى ٱلْأَشْرَارِ ٱلَّذِينَ جَاءَ يَوْمُهُمْ فِي زَمَانِ إِثْمِ ٱلنِّهَايَةِ. | ٢٩ 29 |
Whilst they see vain things in thy regard, and they divine lies: to bring thee upon the necks of the wicked that are wounded, whose appointed day is come in the time of iniquity.
فَهَلْ أُعِيدُهُ إِلَى غِمْدِهِ؟ أَلَا فِي ٱلْمَوْضِعِ ٱلَّذِي خُلِقْتِ فِيهِ فِي مَوْلِدِكِ أُحَاكِمُكِ! | ٣٠ 30 |
Return into thy sheath. I will judge thee in the place wherein thou wast created, in the land of thy nativity.
وَأَسْكُبُ عَلَيْكِ غَضَبِي، وَأَنْفُخُ عَلَيْكِ بِنَارِ غَيْظِي، وَأُسَلِّمُكِ لِيَدِ رِجَالٍ مُتَحَرِّقِينَ مَاهِرِينَ لِلْإِهْلَاكِ. | ٣١ 31 |
And I will pour out upon thee my indignation: in the fire of my rage will I blow upon thee, and will give thee into the hands of men that are brutish and contrive thy destruction.
تَكُونِينَ أُكْلَةً لِلنَّارِ. دَمُكِ يَكُونُ فِي وَسْطِ ٱلْأَرْضِ. لَا تُذْكَرِينَ، لِأَنِّي أَنَا ٱلرَّبُّ تَكَلَّمْتُ». | ٣٢ 32 |
Thou shalt be fuel for the fire, thy blood shall be in the midst of the land, thou shalt be forgotten: for I the Lord have spoken it.
