< حِزْقِيَال 23 >
وَكَانَ إِلَيَّ كَلَامُ ٱلرَّبِّ قَائِلًا: | ١ 1 |
The word of Jehovah came to me again, saying:
«يَاٱبْنَ آدَمَ، كَانَ ٱمْرَأَتَانِ ٱبْنَتَا أُمٍّ وَاحِدَةٍ، | ٢ 2 |
Son of man, there were two women, daughters of one mother;
وَزَنَتَا بِمِصْرَ. فِي صِبَاهُمَا زَنَتَا. هُنَاكَ دُغْدِغَتْ ثُدِيُّهُمَا، وَهُنَاكَ تَزَغْزَغَتْ تَرَائِبُ عُذْرَتِهِمَا. | ٣ 3 |
and they committed fornication in Egypt; in their youth they committed fornication. There they allowed their breasts to be pressed, and their virgin teats to be handled.
وَٱسْمُهُمَا: أُهُولَةُ ٱلْكَبِيرَةُ، وَأُهُولِيبَةُ أُخْتُهَا. وَكَانَتَا لِي، وَوَلَدَتَا بَنِينَ وَبَنَاتٍ. وَٱسْمَاهُمَا: ٱلسَّامِرَةُ «أُهُولَةُ»، وَأُورُشَلِيمُ «أُهُولِيبَةُ». | ٤ 4 |
Their names were Aholah, the elder, and Aholibah, her sister; and they became mine, and bore sons and daughters; as to their names, moreover, Aholah is Samaria, and Aholibah, Jerusalem.
وَزَنَتْ أُهُولَةُ مِنْ تَحْتِي وَعَشِقَتْ مُحِبِّيهَا، أَشُّورَ ٱلْأَبْطَالَ | ٥ 5 |
And Aholah played the harlot when she was mine; and she doted on her lovers, on the Assyrians, her neighbors
ٱللَّابِسِينَ ٱلْأَسْمَانْجُونِيَّ وُلَاةً وَشِحَنًا، كُلُّهُمْ شُبَّانُ شَهْوَةٍ، فُرْسَانٌ رَاكِبُونَ ٱلْخَيْلَ. | ٦ 6 |
who were clothed with blue, captains and rulers, all of them desirable young men, horsemen, riding on horses.
فَدَفَعَتْ لَهُمْ عُقْرَهَا لِمُخْتَارِي بَنِي أَشُّورَ كُلِّهِمْ، وَتَنَجَّسَتْ بِكُلِّ مَنْ عَشِقَتْهُمْ بِكُلِّ أَصْنَامِهِمْ. | ٧ 7 |
Thus she committed fornication with them, with all the choice young men of Assyria, and with all on whom she doted; with all their idols she defiled herself.
وَلَمْ تَتْرُكْ زِنَاهَا مِنْ مِصْرَ أَيْضًا، لِأَنَّهُمْ ضَاجَعُوهَا فِي صِبَاهَا، وَزَغْزَغُوا تَرَائِبَ عِذْرَتِهَا وَسَكَبُوا عَلَيْهَا زِنَاهُمْ. | ٨ 8 |
Neither forsook she her whoredoms brought from Egypt; for they lay with her in her youth, and handled the breasts of her virginity, and poured their fornication upon her.
لِذَلِكَ سَلَّمْتُهَا لِيَدِ عُشَّاقِهَا، لِيَدِ بَنِي أَشُّورَ ٱلَّذِينَ عَشِقَتْهُمْ. | ٩ 9 |
Wherefore I delivered her into the hand of her lovers, into the hand of the Assyrians, upon whom she doted.
هُمْ كَشَفُوا عَوْرَتَهَا. أَخَذُوا بَنِيهَا وَبَنَاتِهَا، وَذَبَحُوهَا بِٱلسَّيْفِ، فَصَارَتْ عِبْرَةً لِلنِّسَاءِ. وَأَجْرَوْا عَلَيْهَا حُكْمًا. | ١٠ 10 |
These uncovered her nakedness; they took her sons and her daughters, and slew her with the sword; and she became famous among women, when they had executed judgment upon her.
«فَلَمَّا رَأَتْ أُخْتُهَا أُهُولِيبَةُ ذَلِكَ أَفْسَدَتْ فِي عِشْقِهَا أَكْثَرَ مِنْهَا، وَفِي زِنَاهَا أَكْثَرَ مِنْ زِنَا أُخْتِهَا. | ١١ 11 |
And her sister, Aholibah, saw this, but she was more corrupt in her inordinate love than she, and in her whoredoms more than her sister in her whoredoms.
عَشِقَتْ بَنِي أَشُّورَ ٱلْوُلَاةَ وَٱلشِّحَنَ ٱلْأَبْطَالَ ٱللَّابِسِينَ أَفْخَرَ لِبَاسٍ، فُرْسَانًا رَاكِبِينَ ٱلْخَيْلَ كُلُّهُمْ شُبَّانُ شَهْوَةٍ. | ١٢ 12 |
She doted upon the Assyrians, her neighbors, prefects and rulers clothed most gorgeously, horsemen riding upon horses, all of them desirable young men.
فَرَأَيْتُ أَنَّهَا قَدْ تَنَجَّسَتْ، وَلِكِلْتَيْهِمَا طَرِيقٌ وَاحِدَةٌ. | ١٣ 13 |
Then I saw that she was defiled; that they both took one way.
وَزَادَتْ زِنَاهَا. وَلَمَّا نَظَرَتْ إِلَى رِجَالٍ مُصَوَّرِينَ عَلَى ٱلْحَائِطِ، صُوَرُ ٱلْكَلْدَانِيِّينَ مُصَوَّرَةٍ بِمُغْرَةٍ، | ١٤ 14 |
But she added to her whoredoms; for she saw men portrayed upon the wall, images of Chaldaeans portrayed with vermilion,
مُنَطَّقِينَ بِمَنَاطِقَ عَلَى أَحْقَائِهِمْ، عَمَائِمُهُمْ مَسْدُولَةٌ عَلَى رُؤُوسِهِمْ. كُلُّهُمْ فِي ٱلْمَنْظَرِ رُؤَسَاءُ مَرْكَبَاتٍ شِبْهُ بَنِي بَابِلَ ٱلْكَلْدَانِيِّينَ أَرْضُ مِيلَادِهِمْ، | ١٥ 15 |
girded with girdles upon their loins, and having long mitres hanging down from their heads, in their appearance all of them princes, after the manner of the sons of Babylon, of Chaldaea, the land of their nativity;
عَشِقَتْهُمْ عِنْدَ لَمْحِ عَيْنَيْهَا إِيَّاهُمْ، وَأَرْسَلَتْ إِلَيْهِمْ رُسُلًا إِلَى أَرْضِ ٱلْكَلْدَانِيِّينَ. | ١٦ 16 |
and as soon as she cast her eyes upon them, she doted on them, and sent messengers to them into Chaldaea.
فَأَتَاهَا بَنُو بَابِلَ فِي مَضْجَعِ ٱلْحُبِّ وَنَجَّسُوهَا بِزِنَاهُمْ، فَتَنَجَّسَتْ بِهِمْ، وجَفَتْهُمْ نَفْسُهَا. | ١٧ 17 |
And the sons of Babylon came to her into the bed of love, and they defiled her with their whoredoms, and she was polluted with them. She then became alienated from them.
وَكَشَفَتْ زِنَاهَا وَكَشَفَتْ عَوْرَتَهَا، فَجَفَتْهَا نَفْسِي، كَمَا جَفَتْ نَفْسِي أُخْتَهَا. | ١٨ 18 |
So she discovered her fornications, and discovered her nakedness. Then my mind was alienated from her, as it had been alienated from her sister.
وَأَكْثَرَتْ زِنَاهَا بِذِكْرِهَا أَيَّامَ صِبَاهَا ٱلَّتِي فِيهَا زَنَتْ بِأَرْضِ مِصْرَ. | ١٩ 19 |
For she multiplied her whoredoms in calling to remembrance the days of her youth, wherein she played the harlot in the land of Egypt;
وَعَشِقَتْ مَعْشُوقِيهِمِ ٱلَّذِينَ لَحْمُهُمْ كَلَحْمِ ٱلْحَمِيرِ وَمَنِيُّهُمْ كَمَنِيِّ ٱلْخَيْلِ. | ٢٠ 20 |
for she doted on their paramours, whose members were as the members of asses, and whose issue was as the issue of horses.
وَٱفْتَقَدْتِ رَذِيلَةَ صِبَاكِ بِزَغْزَغَةِ ٱلْمِصْرِيِّينَ تَرَائِبَكِ لِأَجْلِ ثَدْيِ صِبَاكِ. | ٢١ 21 |
Thus thou calledst to remembrance the lewdness of thy youth, when thy teats were handled by the Egyptians, on account of the paps of thy youth.
«لِأَجْلِ ذَلِكَ يَا أُهُولِيبَةُ، هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ: هَأَنَذَا أُهَيِّجُ عَلَيْكِ عُشَّاقَكِ ٱلَّذِينَ جَفَتْهُمْ نَفْسُكِ، وَآتِي بِهِمْ عَلَيْكِ مِنْ كُلِّ جِهَةٍ: | ٢٢ 22 |
Therefore, O Aholibah, thus saith the Lord Jehovah: Behold, I will raise up against thee thy lovers, from whom thou art alienated, and I will bring them against thee on every side,
بَنِي بَابِلَ وَكُلَّ ٱلْكَلْدَانِيِّينَ، فَقُودَ وَشُوعَ وَقُوعَ، وَمَعَهُمْ كُلُّ بَنِي أَشُّورَ، شُبَّانُ شَهْوَةٍ، وُلَاةٌ وَشِحَنٌ كُلُّهُمْ رُؤَسَاءُ مَرْكَبَاتٍ وَشُهَرَاءُ. كُلُّهُمْ رَاكِبُونَ ٱلْخَيْلَ. | ٢٣ 23 |
the Babylonians and all the Chaldaeans, prefects, rich men, and nobles, and all the Assyrians with them, all of them desirable young men, prefects and rulers, captains and men of renown, all of them riding upon horses.
فَيَأْتُونَ عَلَيْكِ بِأَسْلِحَةٍ مَرْكَبَاتٍ وَعَجَلَاتٍ، وَبِجَمَاعَةِ شُعُوبٍ يُقِيمُونَ عَلَيْكِ ٱلتُّرْسَ وَٱلْمِجَنَّ وَٱلْخُوذَةَ مِنْ حَوْلِكِ، وَأُسَلِّمُ لَهُمُ ٱلْحُكْمَ فَيَحْكُمُونَ عَلَيْكِ بِأَحْكَامِهِمْ. | ٢٤ 24 |
And they shall come against thee with arms, chariots and wheels, and with hosts of people; with buckler and shield and helmet shall they set themselves against thee on every side. And I will commit to them judgment, and they shall punish thee according to their punishments.
وَأَجْعَلُ غَيْرَتِي عَلَيْكِ فَيُعَامِلُونَكِ بِٱلسَّخَطِ. يَقْطَعُونَ أَنْفَكِ وَأُذُنَيْكِ، وَبَقِيَّتُكِ تَسْقُطُ بِٱلسَّيْفِ. يَأْخُذُونَ بَنِيكِ وَبَنَاتِكِ، وَتُؤْكَلُ بَقِيَّتُكِ بِٱلنَّارِ. | ٢٥ 25 |
And I will set my jealousy against thee, and they shall deal with thee in fury; they shall take away thy nose and thine ears, and thy posterity shall fall by the sword. They shall take away thy sons and thy daughters, and thy posterity shall be consumed with fire.
وَيَنْزِعُونَ عَنْكِ ثِيَابَكِ، وَيَأْخُذُونَ أَدَوَاتِ زِينَتِكِ. | ٢٦ 26 |
They shall also strip thee of thy garments, and take away thy fair jewels.
وَأُبَطِّلُ رَذِيلَتَكِ عَنْكِ وَزِنَاكِ مِنْ أَرْضِ مِصْرَ، فَلَا تَرْفَعِينَ عَيْنَيْكِ إِلَيْهِمْ وَلَا تَذْكُرِينَ مِصْرَ بَعْدُ. | ٢٧ 27 |
Thus will I make thy lewdness to cease from thee, and thy whoredom brought from the land of Egypt, so that thou shalt not lift thine eyes to them, nor remember Egypt any more.
لِأَنَّهُ هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ: هَأَنَذَا أُسَلِّمُكِ لِيَدِ ٱلَّذِينَ أَبْغَضْتِهِمْ، لِيَدِ ٱلَّذِينَ جَفَتْهُمْ نَفْسُكِ. | ٢٨ 28 |
For thus saith the Lord Jehovah: Behold, I will deliver thee into the hand of them whom thou hatest, into the hand of them from whom thou art alienated.
فَيُعَامِلُونَكِ بِٱلْبُغْضَاءِ وَيَأْخُذُونَ كُلَّ تَعَبِكِ، وَيَتْرُكُونَكِ عُرْيَانَةً وَعَارِيَةً، فَتَنْكَشِفُ عَوْرَةُ زِنَاكِ وَرَذِيلَتُكِ وَزِنَاكِ. | ٢٩ 29 |
And they shall deal with thee in hatred, and take away all the fruits of thy labor from thee, and shall leave thee naked and bare; and thy nakedness shall be uncovered, with which thou hast committed lewdness and fornication and foul whoredom.
أَفْعَلُ بِكِ هَذَا لِأَنَّكِ زَنَيْتِ وَرَاءَ ٱلْأُمَمِ، لِأَنَّكِ تَنَجَّسْتِ بِأَصْنَامِهِمْ. | ٣٠ 30 |
These things will I do to thee, because thou hast committed whoredom with the nations, and hast been polluted with their idols.
فِي طَرِيقِ أُخْتِكِ سَلَكْتِ فَأَدْفَعُ كَأْسَهَا لِيَدِكِ. | ٣١ 31 |
Thou hast walked in the way of thy sister, therefore will I give her cup into thy hand.
هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ: إِنَّكِ تَشْرَبِينَ كَأْسَ أُخْتِكِ ٱلْعَمِيقَةَ ٱلْكَبِيرَةَ. تَكُونِينَ لِلضَّحِكِ وَلِلِٱسْتِهْزَاءِ. تَسَعُ كَثِيرًا. | ٣٢ 32 |
Thus saith the Lord Jehovah: Thou shalt drink of thy sister's cup, which is deep and large; it shall make thee a laughing-stock and a derision, for it containeth much.
تَمْتَلِئِينَ سُكْرًا وَحُزْنًا، كَأْسَ ٱلتَّحَيُّرِ وَٱلْخَرَابِ، كَأْسَ أُخْتِكِ ٱلسَّامِرَةِ. | ٣٣ 33 |
Thou shalt be filled with drunkenness and sorrow. A cup of astonishment and amazement is the cup of thy sister Samaria.
فَتَشْرَبِينَهَا وَتَمْتَصِّينَهَا وَتَقْضَمِينَ شُقَفَهَا وَتَجْتَثِّينَ ثَدْيَيْكِ، لِأَنِّي تَكَلَّمْتُ، يَقُولُ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ. | ٣٤ 34 |
Thou shalt even drink it and suck it out, and lick the sherds, and thou shalt tear thy breasts. For I have spoken it, saith the Lord Jehovah.
لِذَلِكَ هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ: مِنْ أَجْلِ أَنَّكِ نَسِيتِنِي وَطَرَحْتِنِي وَرَاءَ ظَهْرِكِ، فَتَحْمِلِي أَيْضًا رَذِيلَتَكِ وَزِنَاكِ». | ٣٥ 35 |
Therefore thus saith the Lord Jehovah: Because thou hast forgotten me, and cast me behind thy back, therefore bear thou thy lewdness and thy whoredoms.
وَقَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ لِي: «يَا ٱبْنَ آدَمَ، أَتَحْكُمُ عَلَى أُهُولَةَ وَأُهُولِيبَةَ؟ بَلْ أَخْبِرْهُمَا بِرَجَاسَاتِهِمَا، | ٣٦ 36 |
Moreover, Jehovah said to me, Son of man, punish Aholah and Aholibah; yea, declare to them their abominations;
لِأَنَّهُمَا قَدْ زَنَتَا وَفِي أَيْدِيهِمَا دَمٌ، وَزَنَتَا بِأَصْنَامِهِمَا وَأَيْضًا أَجَازَتَا بَنِيهِمَا ٱلَّذِينَ وَلَدَتَاهُمْ لِي ٱلنَّارَ أَكْلًا لَهَا. | ٣٧ 37 |
that they have committed adultery, and blood is upon their hands, and that with their idols they have committed adultery, and have also caused their sons, whom they bore to me, to pass through the fire to them for food.
وَفَعَلَتَا أَيْضًا بِي هَذَا: نَجَّسَتَا مَقْدِسِي فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمِ وَدَنَّسَتَا سُبُوتِي. | ٣٨ 38 |
This also have they done to me: they have defiled my sanctuary in the same day, and have profaned my sabbaths.
وَلَمَّا ذَبَحَتَا بَنِيهِمَا لِأَصْنَامِهِمَا، أَتَتَا فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمِ إِلَى مَقْدِسِي لِتُنَجِّسَاهُ. فَهُوَذَا هَكَذَا فَعَلَتَا فِي وَسْطِ بَيْتِي. | ٣٩ 39 |
For when they had slain their children to their idols, then they came into my sanctuary the same day to profane it; behold, thus have they done in my house.
بَلْ أَرْسَلْتُمَا إِلَى رِجَالٍ آتِينَ مِنْ بَعِيدٍ. ٱلَّذِينَ أُرْسِلَ إِلَيْهِمْ رَسُولٌ فَهُوَذَا جَاءُوا. هُمُ ٱلَّذِينَ لِأَجْلِهِمِ ٱسْتَحْمَمْتِ وَكَحَّلْتِ عَيْنَيْكِ وَتَحَلَّيْتِ بِٱلْحُلِيِّ، | ٤٠ 40 |
Yea, ye sent for men to come from afar; messengers were sent to them, and behold, they came; for them didst thou wash thyself, and paint thine eyes, and deck thyself with ornaments.
وَجَلَسْتِ عَلَى سَرِيرٍ فَاخِرٍ أَمَامَهُ مَائِدَةٌ مُنَضَّضَةٌ، وَوَضَعْتِ عَلَيْهَا بَخُورِي وَزَيْتِي. | ٤١ 41 |
And thou didst seat thyself upon a stately bed before which a table was prepared, and thereon didst thou set my incense and my oil.
وَصَوْتُ جُمْهُورٍ مُتَرَفِّهِينَ مَعَهَا، مَعَ أُنَاسٍ مِنْ رَعَاعِ ٱلْخَلْقِ. أُتِيَ بِسَكَارَى مِنَ ٱلْبَرِّيَّةِ، ٱلَّذِينَ جَعَلُوا أَسْوِرَةً عَلَى أَيْدِيهِمَا وَتَاجَ جَمَالٍ عَلَى رُؤُوسِهِمَا. | ٤٢ 42 |
Also the voice of a multitude at ease was with her; and together with men from the common multitude were brought deep-drinkers from the desert, who put bracelets upon their hands, and beautiful crowns upon their heads.
فَقُلْتُ عَنِ ٱلْبَالِيَةِ فِي ٱلزِّنَا: ٱلْآنَ يَزْنُونَ زِنًا مَعَهَا وَهِيَ. | ٤٣ 43 |
Then said I concerning her that was worn out with adulteries, Will they now commit whoredoms with her, even with her?
فَدَخَلُوا عَلَيْهَا كَمَا يُدْخَلُ عَلَى ٱمْرَأَةٍ زَانِيَةٍ. هَكَذَا دَخَلُوا عَلَى أُهُولَةَ وَعَلَى أُهُولِيبَةَ ٱلْمَرْأَتَيْنِ ٱلزَّانِيَتَيْنِ. | ٤٤ 44 |
They went in to her, as men go to a harlot; so went they in to Aholah and to Aholibah, the lewd women.
وَٱلرِّجَالُ ٱلصِّدِّيقُونَ هُمْ يَحْكُمُونَ عَلَيْهِمَا حُكْمَ زَانِيَةٍ وَحُكْمَ سَفَّاكَةِ ٱلدَّمِ، لِأَنَّهُمَا زَانِيَتَانِ وَفِي أَيْدِيهِمَا دَمٌ. | ٤٥ 45 |
But righteous men shall judge them, as adulteresses are judged, and as women that shed blood are judged; for they are adulteresses, and blood is upon their hands.
لِأَنَّهُ هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ: إِنِّي أُصْعِدُ عَلَيْهِمَا جَمَاعَةً وَأُسَلِّمُهُمَا لِلْجَوْرِ وَٱلنَّهْبِ. | ٤٦ 46 |
For thus saith the Lord Jehovah: I will bring a great company against them, and will give them up to be harassed and spoiled,
وَتَرْجُمُهُمَا ٱلْجَمَاعَةُ بِٱلْحِجَارَةِ، وَيُقَطِّعُونَهُمَا بِسُيُوفِهِمْ، وَيَذْبَحُونَ أَبْنَاءَهُمَا وَبَنَاتِهِمَا، وَيُحْرِقُونَ بُيُوتَهُمَا بِٱلنَّارِ. | ٤٧ 47 |
and the company shall stone them with stones, and cut them in pieces with their swords; they shall slay their sons and their daughters, and burn their houses with fire.
فَأُبَطِّلُ ٱلرَّذِيلَةَ مِنَ ٱلْأَرْضِ، فَتَتَأَدَّبُ جَمِيعُ ٱلنِّسَاءِ وَلَا يَفْعَلْنَ مِثْلَ رَذِيلَتِكُمَا. | ٤٨ 48 |
Thus will I cause lewdness to cease out of the land, that all women may take warning, and not follow them in their lewdness.
وَيَرُدُّونَ عَلَيْكُمَا رَذِيلَتَكُمَا، فَتَحْمِلَانِ خَطَايَا أَصْنَامِكُمَا، وَتَعْلَمَانِ أَنِّي أَنَا ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ». | ٤٩ 49 |
And they shall recompense your lewdness upon you, and ye shall bear the sins of your idols; that ye may know that I am the Lord Jehovah.
