حِزْقِيَال 33
| وَكَانَ إِلَيَّ كَلَامُ ٱلرَّبِّ قَائِلًا: | ١ 1 |
And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying:
| «يَا ٱبْنَ آدَمَ، كَلِّمْ بَنِي شَعْبِكَ وقُلْ لَهُمْ: إِذَا جَلَبْتُ ٱلسَّيْفَ عَلَى أَرْضٍ، فَإِنْ أَخَذَ شَعْبُ ٱلْأَرْضِ رَجُلًا مِنْ بَيْنِهِمْ وَجَعَلُوهُ رَقِيبًا لَهُمْ، | ٢ 2 |
'Son of man, speak to the children of thy people, and say unto them: When I bring the sword upon a land, if the people of the land take a man from among them, and set him for their watchman;
| فَإِذَا رَأَى ٱلسَّيْفَ مُقْبِلًا عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ نَفَخَ فِي ٱلْبُوقِ وَحَذَّرَ ٱلشَّعْبَ، | ٣ 3 |
if, when he seeth the sword come upon the land, he blow the horn, and warn the people;
| وَسَمِعَ ٱلسَّامِعُ صَوْتَ ٱلْبُوقِ وَلَمْ يَتَحَذَّرْ، فَجَاءَ ٱلسَّيْفُ وَأَخَذَهُ، فَدَمُهُ يَكُونُ عَلَى رَأْسِهِ. | ٤ 4 |
then whosoever heareth the sound of the horn, and taketh not warning, if the sword come, and take him away, his blood shall be upon his own head;
| سَمِعَ صَوْتَ ٱلْبُوقِ وَلَمْ يَتَحَذَّرْ، فَدَمُهُ يَكُونُ عَلَى نَفْسِهِ. لَوْ تَحَذَّرَ لَخَلَّصَ نَفْسَهُ. | ٥ 5 |
he heard the sound of the horn, and took not warning, his blood shall be upon him; whereas if he had taken warning, he would have delivered his soul.
| فَإِنْ رَأَى ٱلرَّقِيبُ ٱلسَّيْفَ مُقْبِلًا وَلَمْ يَنْفُخْ فِي ٱلْبُوقِ وَلَمْ يَتَحَذَّرِ ٱلشَّعْبُ، فَجَاءَ ٱلسَّيْفُ وَأَخَذَ نَفْسًا مِنْهُمْ، فَهُوَ قَدْ أُخِذَ بِذَنْبِهِ، أَمَّا دَمُهُ فَمِنْ يَدِ ٱلرَّقِيبِ أَطْلُبُهُ. | ٦ 6 |
But if the watchman see the sword come, and blow not the horn, and the people be not warned, and the sword do come, and take any person from among them, he is taken away in his iniquity, but his blood will I require at the watchman's hand.
| «وَأَنْتَ يَا ٱبْنَ آدَمَ، فَقَدْ جَعَلْتُكَ رَقِيبًا لِبَيْتِ إِسْرَائِيلَ، فَتَسْمَعُ ٱلْكَلَامَ مِنْ فَمِي، وَتُحَذِّرُهُمْ مِنْ قِبَلِي. | ٧ 7 |
So thou, son of man, I have set thee a watchman unto the house of Israel; therefore, when thou shalt hear the word at My mouth, warn them from Me.
| إِذَا قُلْتُ لِلشِّرِّيرِ: يَا شِرِّيرُ مَوْتًا تَمُوتُ. فَإِنْ لَمْ تَتَكَلَّمْ لِتُحَذِّرَ ٱلشِّرِّيرَ مِنْ طَرِيقِهِ، فَذَلِكَ ٱلشِّرِّيرُ يَمُوتُ بِذَنْبِهِ، أَمَّا دَمُهُ فَمِنْ يَدِكَ أَطْلُبُهُ. | ٨ 8 |
When I say unto the wicked: O wicked man, thou shalt surely die, and thou dost not speak to warn the wicked from his way; that wicked man shall die in his iniquity, but his blood will I require at thy hand.
| وَإِنْ حَذَّرْتَ ٱلشِّرِّيرَ مِنْ طَرِيقِهِ لِيَرْجعَ عَنْهُ، وَلَمْ يَرْجِعْ عَنْ طَرِيقِهِ، فَهُوَ يَمُوتُ بِذَنْبِهِ. أَمَّا أَنْتَ فَقَدْ خَلَّصْتَ نَفْسَكَ. | ٩ 9 |
Nevertheless, if thou warn the wicked of his way to turn from it, and he turn not from his way; he shall die in his iniquity, but thou hast delivered thy soul.
| وَأَنْتَ يَا ٱبْنَ آدَمَ فَكَلِّمْ بَيْتَ إِسْرَائِيلَ وَقُلْ: أَنْتُمْ تَتَكَلَّمُونَ هَكَذَا قَائِلِينَ: إِنَّ مَعَاصِيَنَا وَخَطَايَانَا عَلَيْنَا، وَبِهَا نَحْنُ فَانُونَ، فَكَيْفَ نَحْيَا؟ | ١٠ 10 |
Therefore, O thou son of man, say unto the house of Israel: Thus ye speak, saying: Our transgressions and our sins are upon us, and we pine away in them; how then can we live?
| قُلْ لَهُمْ: حَيٌّ أَنَا، يَقُولُ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ، إِنِّي لَا أُسَرُّ بِمَوْتِ ٱلشِّرِّيرِ، بَلْ بِأَنْ يَرْجِعَ ٱلشِّرِّيرُ عَنْ طَرِيقِهِ وَيَحْيَا. اِرْجِعُوا، ٱرْجِعُوا عَنْ طُرُقِكُمُ ٱلرَّدِيئَةِ! فَلِمَاذَا تَمُوتُونَ يَابَيْتَ إِسْرَائِيلَ؟ | ١١ 11 |
Say unto them: As I live, saith the Lord GOD, I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked, but that the wicked turn from his way and live; turn ye, turn ye from your evil ways; for why will ye die, O house of Israel?
| وَأَنْتَ يَا ٱبْنَ آدَمَ، فَقُلْ لِبَنِي شَعْبِكَ: إِنَّ بِرَّ ٱلْبَارِّ لَا يُنَجِّيهِ فِي يَوْمِ مَعْصِيَتِهِ، وَٱلشِّرِّيرُ لَا يَعْثُرُ بِشَرِّهِ فِي يَوْمِ رُجُوعِهِ عَنْ شَرِّهِ. وَلَا يَسْتَطِيعُ ٱلْبَارُّ أَنْ يَحْيَا بِبِرِّهِ فِي يَوْمِ خَطِيئَتِهِ. | ١٢ 12 |
And thou, son of man, say unto the children of thy people: The righteousness of the righteous shall not deliver him in the day of his transgression; and as for the wickedness of the wicked, he shall not stumble thereby in the day that he turneth from his wickedness; neither shall he that is righteous be able to live thereby in the day that he sinneth.
| إِذَا قُلْتُ لِلْبَارِّ: حَيَاةً تَحْيَا. فَٱتَّكَلَ هُوَ عَلَى بِرِّهِ وَأَثِمَ، فَبِرُّهُ كُلُّهُ لَا يُذْكَرُ، بَلْ بِإِثْمِهِ ٱلَّذِي فَعَلَهُ يَمُوتُ. | ١٣ 13 |
When I say to the righteous, that he shall surely live; if he trust to his righteousness, and commit iniquity, none of his righteous deeds shall be remembered; but for his iniquity that he hath committed, for it shall he die.
| وَإِذَا قُلْتُ لِلشِّرِّيرِ: مَوْتًا تَمُوتُ. فَإِنْ رَجَعَ عَنْ خَطِيَّتِهِ وَعَمِلَ بِٱلْعَدْلِ وَٱلْحَقِّ، | ١٤ 14 |
Again, when I say unto the wicked: Thou shalt surely die; if he turn from his sin, and do that which is lawful and right;
| إِنْ رَدَّ ٱلشِّرِّيرُ ٱلرَّهْنَ وَعَوَّضَ عَنِ ٱلْمُغْتَصَبِ، وَسَلَكَ فِي فَرَائِضِ ٱلْحَيَاةِ بِلَا عَمَلِ إِثْمٍ، فَإِنَّهُ حَيَاةً يَحْيَا. لَا يَمُوتُ. | ١٥ 15 |
if the wicked restore the pledge, give back that which he had taken by robbery, walk in the statutes of life, committing no iniquity; he shall surely live, he shall not die.
| كُلُّ خَطِيَّتِهِ ٱلَّتِي أَخْطَأَ بِهَا لَا تُذْكَرُ عَلَيْهِ. عَمِلَ بِٱلْعَدْلِ وَٱلْحَقِّ فَيَحْيَا حَيَاةً. | ١٦ 16 |
None of his sins that he hath committed shall be remembered against him; he hath done that which is lawful and right; he shall surely live.
| وَأَبْنَاءُ شَعْبِكَ يَقُولُونَ: لَيْسَتْ طَرِيقُ ٱلرَّبِّ مُسْتَوِيَةً. بَلْ هُمْ طَرِيقُهُمْ غَيْرُ مُسْتَوِيَةٍ! | ١٧ 17 |
Yet the children of thy people say: The way of the Lord is not equal; but as for them, their way is not equal.
| عِنْدَ رُجُوعِ ٱلْبَارِّ عَنْ بِرِّهِ وَعِنْدَ عَمَلِهِ إِثْمًا فَإِنَّهُ يَمُوتُ بِهِ. | ١٨ 18 |
When the righteous turneth from his righteousness, and committeth iniquity, he shall even die thereby.
| وَعِنْدَ رُجُوعِ ٱلشِّرِّيرِ عَنْ شَرِّهِ وَعِنْدَ عَمَلِهِ بِٱلْعَدْلِ وَٱلْحَقِّ، فَإِنَّهُ يَحْيَا بِهِمَا. | ١٩ 19 |
And when the wicked turneth from his wickedness, and doeth that which is lawful and right, he shall live thereby.
| وَأَنْتُمْ تَقُولُونَ: إِنَّ طَرِيقَ ٱلرَّبِّ غَيْرُ مُسْتَوِيَةٍ. إِنِّي أَحْكُمُ عَلَى كُلِّ وَاحِدٍ مِنْكُمْ كَطُرُقِهِ يَا بَيْتَ إِسْرَائِيلَ». | ٢٠ 20 |
Yet ye say: The way of the Lord is not equal. O house of Israel, I will judge you every one after his ways.'
| وَكَانَ فِي ٱلسَّنَةِ ٱلثَّانِيَةِ عَشَرَةَ مِنْ سَبْيِنَا، فِي ٱلشَّهْرِ ٱلْعَاشِرِ، فِي ٱلْخَامِسِ مِنَ ٱلشَّهْرِ، أَنَّهُ جَاءَ إِلَيَّ مُنْفَلِتٌ مِنْ أُورُشَلِيمَ، فَقَالَ: «قَدْ ضُرِبَتِ ٱلْمَدِينَةُ». | ٢١ 21 |
And it came to pass in the twelfth year of our captivity, in the tenth month, in the fifth day of the month, that one that had escaped out of Jerusalem came unto me, saying: 'The city is smitten.'
| وَكَانَتْ يَدُ ٱلرَّبِّ عَلَيَّ مَسَاءً قَبْلَ مَجِيءِ ٱلْمُنْفَلِتِ، وَفَتَحَتْ فَمِي حَتَّى جَاءَ إِلَيَّ صَبَاحًا، فَٱنْفَتَحَ فَمِي وَلَمْ أَكُنْ بَعْدُ أَبْكَمَ. | ٢٢ 22 |
Now the hand of the LORD had been upon me in the evening, before he that was escaped came; and He had opened my mouth against his coming to me in the morning; and my mouth was opened, and I was no more dumb.
| فَكَانَ إِلَيَّ كَلَامُ ٱلرَّبِّ قَائِلًا: | ٢٣ 23 |
Then the word of the LORD came unto me, saying:
| «يَا ٱبْنَ آدَمَ، إِنَّ ٱلسَّاكِنِينَفيِ هَذِهِ ٱلْخِرَبِ فِي أَرْضِ إِسْرَائِيلَ يَتَكَلَّمُونَ قَائِلِينَ: إِنَّ إِبْرَاهِيمَ كَانَ وَاحِدًا وَقَدْ وَرِثَ ٱلْأَرْضَ، وَنَحْنُ كَثِيرُونَ، لَنَا أُعْطِيَتِ ٱلْأَرْضُ مِيرَاثًا. | ٢٤ 24 |
'Son of man, they that inhabit those waste places in the land of Israel speak, saying: Abraham was one, and he inherited the land; but we are many; the land is given us for inheritance.
| لِذَلِكَ قُلْ لَهُمْ: هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ: تَأْكُلُونَ بِٱلدَّمِ وَتَرْفَعُونَ أَعْيُنَكُمْ إِلَى أَصْنَامِكُمْ وَتَسْفِكُونَ ٱلدَّمَ، أَفَتَرِثُونَ ٱلْأَرْضَ؟ | ٢٥ 25 |
Wherefore say unto them: Thus saith the Lord GOD. Ye eat with the blood, and lift up your eyes unto your idols, and shed blood; and shall ye possess the land?
| وَقَفْتُمْ عَلَى سَيْفِكُمْ، فَعَلْتُمُ ٱلرِّجْسَ، وَكُلٌّ مِنْكُمْ نَجَّسَ ٱمْرَأَةَ صَاحِبِهِ، أَفَتَرِثُونَ ٱلْأَرْضَ؟ | ٢٦ 26 |
Ye stand upon your sword, ye work abomination, and ye defile every one his neighbour's wife; and shall ye possess the land?
| قُلْ لَهُمْ: هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ: حَيٌّ أَنَا، إِنَّ ٱلَّذِينَ فِي ٱلْخِرَبِ يَسْقُطُونَ بِٱلسَّيْفِ، وَٱلَّذِي هُوَ عَلَى وَجْهِ ٱلْحَقْلِ أَبْذِلُهُ لِلْوَحْشِ مَأْكَلًا، وَٱلَّذِينَ فِي ٱلْحُصُونِ وَفِي ٱلْمَغَايِرِ يَمُوتُونَ بِٱلْوَبَإِ. | ٢٧ 27 |
Thus shalt thou say unto them: Thus saith the Lord GOD: As I live, surely they that are in the waste places shall fall by the sword, and him that is in the open field will I give to the beasts to be devoured, and they that are in the strongholds and in the caves shall die of the pestilence.
| فَأَجْعَلُ ٱلْأَرْضَ خَرِبَةً مُقْفِرَةً، وَتَبْطُلُ كِبْرِيَاءُ عِزَّتِهَا، وَتَخْرَبُ جِبَالُ إِسْرَائِيلَ بِلَا عَابِرٍ. | ٢٨ 28 |
And I will make the land most desolate, and the pride of her power shall cease; and the mountains of Israel shall be desolate, so that none shall pass through.
| فَيَعْلَمُونَ أَنِّي أَنَا ٱلرَّبُّ حِينَ أَجْعَلُ ٱلْأَرْضَ خَرِبَةً مُقْفِرَةً عَلَى كُلِّ رَجَاسَاتِهِمِ ٱلَّتِي فَعَلُوهَا. | ٢٩ 29 |
Then shall they know that I am the LORD, when I have made the land most desolate, because of all their abominations which they have committed.
| «وَأَنْتَ يَا ٱبْنَ آدَمَ، فَإِنَّ بَنِي شَعْبِكَ يَتَكَلَّمُونَ عَلَيْكَ بِجَانِبِ ٱلْجُدْرَانِ، وَفِي أَبْوَابِ ٱلْبُيُوتِ، وَيَتَكَلَّمُ ٱلْوَاحِدُ مَعَ ٱلْآخَرِ، ٱلرَّجُلُ مَعَ أَخِيهِ قَائِلِينَ: هَلُمَّ ٱسْمَعُوا مَا هُوَ ٱلْكَلَامُ ٱلْخَارِجُ مِنْ عِنْدِ ٱلرَّبِّ! | ٣٠ 30 |
And as for thee, son of man, the children of thy people that talk of thee by the walls and in the doors of the houses, and speak one to another, every one to his brother, saying: Come, I pray you, and hear what is the word that cometh forth from the LORD;
| وَيَأْتُونَ إِلَيْكَ كَمَا يَأْتِي ٱلشَّعْبُ، وَيَجْلِسُونَ أَمَامَكَ كَشَعْبِي، وَيَسْمَعُونَ كَلَامَكَ وَلَا يَعْمَلُونَ بِهِ، لِأَنَّهُمْ بِأَفْوَاهِهِمْ يُظْهِرُونَ أَشْوَاقًا وَقَلْبُهُمْ ذَاهِبٌ وَرَاءَ كَسْبِهِمْ. | ٣١ 31 |
and come unto thee as the people cometh, and sit before thee as My people, and hear thy words, but do them not — for with their mouth they show much love, but their heart goeth after their covetousness;
| وَهَا أَنْتَ لَهُمْ كَشِعْرِ أَشْوَاقٍ لِجَمِيلِ ٱلصَّوْتِ يُحْسِنُ ٱلْعَزْفَ، فَيَسْمَعُونَ كَلَامَكَ وَلَا يَعْمَلُونَ بِهِ. | ٣٢ 32 |
and, lo, thou art unto them as a love song of one that hath a pleasant voice, and can play well on an instrument; so they hear thy words, but they do them not —
| وَإِذَا جَاءَ هَذَا، لِأَنَّهُ يَأْتِي، فَيَعْلَمُونَ أَنَّ نَبِيًّا كَانَ فِي وَسْطِهِمْ». | ٣٣ 33 |
when this cometh to pass — behold, it cometh — then shall they know that a prophet hath been among them.'
