حِزْقِيَال 47

١ 1 ثُمَّ أَرْجَعَنِي إِلَى مَدْخَلِ ٱلْبَيْتِ وَإِذَا بِمِيَاهٍ تَخْرُجُ مِنْ تَحْتِ عَتَبَةِ ٱلْبَيْتِ نَحْوَ ٱلْمَشْرِقِ، لِأَنَّ وَجْهَ ٱلْبَيْتِ نَحْوَ ٱلْمَشْرِقِ. وَٱلْمِيَاهُ نَازِلَةٌ مِنْ تَحْتِ جَانِبِ ٱلْبَيْتِ ٱلْأَيْمَنِ عَنْ جَنُوبِ ٱلْمَذْبَحِ.

Then the man took me back to the entrance to the temple, and there was water flowing out from under the temple threshold of the house toward the east—for the front of the temple faced east—and the water was flowing down the south side of the temple, to the right of the altar.

٢ 2 ثُمَّ أَخْرَجَنِي مِنْ طَرِيقِ بَابِ ٱلشِّمَالِ وَدَارَ بِي فِي ٱلطَّرِيقِ مِنْ خَارِجٍ إِلَى ٱلْبَابِ ٱلْخَارِجِيِّ مِنَ ٱلطَّرِيقِ ٱلَّذِي يَتَّجِهُ نَحْوَ ٱلْمَشْرِقِ، وَإِذَا بِمِيَاهٍ جَارِيَةٍ مِنَ ٱلْجَانِبِ ٱلْأَيْمَنِ.

So he brought me out through the northern gate and led around to the gate facing east, and there the water was flowing from this gate on its south side.

٣ 3 وَعِنْدَ خُرُوجِ ٱلرَّجُلِ نَحْوَ ٱلْمَشْرِقِ وَٱلْخَيْطُ بِيَدِهِ، قَاسَ أَلْفَ ذِرَاعٍ وَعَبَّرَنِي فِي ٱلْمِيَاهِ، وَٱلْمِيَاهُ إِلَى ٱلْكَعْبَيْنِ.

As the man was going toward the east, there was a measuring line in his hand; he measured off one thousand cubits and brought me through the water to ankle-deep water.

٤ 4 ثُمَّ قَاسَ أَلْفًا وَعَبَّرَنِي فِي ٱلْمِيَاهِ، وَٱلْمِيَاهُ إِلَى ٱلرُّكْبَتَيْنِ. ثُمَّ قَاسَ أَلْفًا وَعَبَّرَنِي، وَٱلْمِيَاهُ إِلَى ٱلْحَقْوَيْنِ.

Then he measured one thousand cubits again and brought me through the water to knee-deep water; and he measured another thousand cubits and brought me to hip-deep water.

٥ 5 ثُمَّ قَاسَ أَلْفًا، وَإِذَا بِنَهْرٍ لَمْ أَسْتَطِعْ عُبُورَهُ، لِأَنَّ ٱلْمِيَاهَ طَمَتْ، مِيَاهَ سِبَاحَةٍ، نَهْرٍ لَا يُعْبَرُ.

Next he measured off another thousand cubits, but it was a river that I could not cross through because the water had risen and was deep enough to swim in—it was a river that could not be crossed.

٦ 6 وَقَالَ لِي: «أَرَأَيْتَ يَا ٱبْنَ آدَمَ؟». ثُمَّ ذَهَبَ بِي وَأَرْجَعَنِي إِلَى شَاطِئِ ٱلنَّهْرِ.

The man said to me, “Son of man, do you see this?” and he brought me out and had me walk back along the riverbank.

٧ 7 وَعِنْدَ رُجُوعِي إِذَا عَلَى شَاطِئِ ٱلنَّهْرِ أَشْجَارٌ كَثِيرَةٌ جِدًّا مِنْ هُنَا وَمِنْ هُنَاكَ.

As I walked back, there the riverbank had many trees on this side and also the other side.

٨ 8 وَقَالَ لِي: «هَذِهِ ٱلْمِيَاهُ خَارِجَةٌ إِلَى ٱلدَّائِرَةِ ٱلشَّرْقِيَّةِ وَتَنْزِلُ إِلَى ٱلْعَرَبَةِ وَتَذْهَبُ إِلَى ٱلْبَحْرِ. إِلَى ٱلْبَحْرِ هِيَ خَارِجَةٌ فَتُشْفَى ٱلْمِيَاهُ.

The man said to me, “This water is going out to the eastern territory and down to the Arabah; this water flows into the Salt Sea and will make it fresh.

٩ 9 وَيَكُونُ أَنَّ كُلَّ نَفْسٍ حَيَّةٍ تَدِبُّ حَيْثُمَا يَأْتِي ٱلنَّهْرَانِ تَحْيَا. وَيَكُونُ ٱلسَّمَكُ كَثِيرًا جِدًّا لِأَنَّ هَذِهِ ٱلْمِيَاهَ تَأْتِي إِلَى هُنَاكَ فَتُشْفَى، وَيَحْيَا كُلُّ مَا يَأْتِي ٱلنَّهْرُ إِلَيْهِ.

It will be that every living creature that swarms will live where the water goes; there will be many fish, for these waters flow there. It will make the salt water fresh. Everything will live wherever the river goes.

١٠ 10 وَيَكُونُ ٱلصَّيَّادُونَ وَاقِفِينَ عَلَيْهِ. مِنْ عَيْنِ جَدْيٍ إِلَى عَيْنِ عِجْلَايِمَ يَكُونُ لِبَسْطِ ٱلشِّبَاكِ، وَيَكُونُ سَمَكُهُمْ عَلَى أَنْوَاعِهِ كَسَمَكِ ٱلْبَحْرِ ٱلْعَظِيمِ كَثِيرًا جِدًّا.

Then it will happen that fishermen of En Gedi will stand by the water, and there will be a place to dry out the fishing nets by En Eglaim. There will be many kinds of fish in the Salt Sea, like the fish in the Great Sea for their abundance.

١١ 11 أَمَّا غَمِقَاتُهُ وَبِرَكُهُ فَلَا تُشْفَى. تُجْعَلُ لِلْمِلْحِ.

But the Salt Sea's swamps and marshes will not be made fresh; they will be for providing salt.

١٢ 12 وَعَلَى ٱلنَّهْرِ يَنْبُتُ عَلَى شَاطِئِهِ مِنْ هُنَا وَمِنْ هُنَاكَ كُلُّ شَجَرٍ لِلْأَكْلِ، لَا يَذْبُلُ وَرَقُهُ وَلَا يَنْقَطِعُ ثَمَرُهُ. كُلَّ شَهْرٍ يُبَكِّرُ لِأَنَّ مِيَاهَهُ خَارِجَةٌ مِنَ ٱلْمَقْدِسِ، وَيَكُونُ ثَمَرُهُ لِلْأَكْلِ وَوَرَقُهُ لِلدَّوَاءِ.

Beside this river on its banks, on both sides, all kinds of trees will grow that bear food. Their leaves will not wither and their fruit will never fail to grow. Each month the trees will bear fruit, because the water from the sanctuary flows to them. Their fruit will be for food, and their leaves will be for healing.

١٣ 13 «هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ: هَذَا هُوَ ٱلتُّخْمُ ٱلَّذِي بِهِ تَمْتَلِكُونَ ٱلْأَرْضَ بِحَسَبِ أَسْبَاطِ إِسْرَائِيلَ ٱلِٱثْنَيْ عَشَرَ، يُوسُفُ قِسْمَانِ.

The Lord Yahweh says this: This will be the way that you divide the land up for the twelve tribes of Israel: Joseph will have two portions.

١٤ 14 وَتَمْتَلِكُونَهَا أَحَدُكُمْ كَصَاحِبِهِ، ٱلَّتِي رَفَعْتُ يَدِي لِأُعْطِيَ آبَاءَكُمْ إِيَّاهَا. وَهَذِهِ ٱلْأَرْضُ تَقَعُ لَكُمْ نَصِيبًا.

You are to divide equally what I lifted up my hand and swore to give to your fathers. This land will come to you as an inheritance.

١٥ 15 وَهَذَا تُخْمُ ٱلْأَرْضِ: نَحْوَ ٱلشِّمَالِ مِنَ ٱلْبَحْرِ ٱلْكَبِيرِ طَرِيقُ حِثْلُونَ إِلَى ٱلْمَجِيءِ إِلَى صَدَدَ،

This will be the boundary of the land on the north side from the Great Sea by way of Hethlon, and then to Zedad.

١٦ 16 حَمَاةُ وَبَيْرُوثَةُ وَسِبْرَائِمُ، ٱلَّتِي بَيْنَ تُخْمِ دِمَشْقَ وَتُخْمِ حَمَاةَ، وَحَصْرُ ٱلْوُسْطَى، ٱلَّتِي عَلَى تُخْمِ حَوْرَانَ.

Then the boundary will go to Berothah, to Sibraim, which is between Damascus and Hamath, and then to Hazer Hattikon, which is beside the boundary of Hauran.

١٧ 17 وَيَكُونُ ٱلتُّخْمُ مِنَ ٱلْبَحْرِ حَصْرَ عِينَانَ تُخْمَ دِمَشْقَ وَٱلشِّمَالُ شِمَالًا وَتُخْمَ حَمَاةَ. وَهَذَا جَانِبُ ٱلشِّمَالِ.

So the boundary will go from the sea to Hazar Enan on the border with Damascus and Hamath to the north. This will be the north side.

١٨ 18 وَجَانِبُ ٱلشَّرْقِ بَيْنَ حَوْرَانَ وَدِمَشْقَ وَجِلْعَادَ وَأَرْضَ إِسْرَائِيلَ ٱلْأُرْدُنُّ. مِنَ ٱلتُّخْمِ إِلَى ٱلْبَحْرِ ٱلشَّرْقِيِّ تَقِيسُونَ. وَهَذَا جَانِبُ ٱلْمَشْرِقِ.

On the east side the boundary will run between Hauran and Damascus, along the Jordan River between Gilead and the land of Israel. You will measure from the border to the eastern sea. This will be the eastern border.

١٩ 19 وَجَانِبُ ٱلْجَنُوبِ يَمِينًا مِنْ ثَامَارَ إِلَى مِيَاهِ مَرِيبُوثَ قَادِشَ ٱلنَّهْرُ إِلَى ٱلْبَحْرِ ٱلْكَبِيرِ. وَهَذَا جَانِبُ ٱلْيَمِينِ جَنُوبًا.

Then on the south side the boundary will run from Tamar as far as the waters of Meribah Kadesh, then along the brook of Egypt to the Great Sea. This will be the boundary on the south side.

٢٠ 20 وَجَانِبُ ٱلْغَرْبِ ٱلْبَحْرُ ٱلْكَبِيرُ مِنَ ٱلتُّخْمِ إِلَى مُقَابِلِ مَدْخَلِ حَمَاةَ. وَهَذَا جَانِبُ ٱلْغَرْبِ.

Then the boundary on the west side will be the Great Sea to a point opposite Lebo Hamath. This will be the west side.

٢١ 21 فَتَقْتَسِمُونَ هَذِهِ ٱلْأَرْضَ لَكُمْ لِأَسْبَاطِ إِسْرَائِيلَ.

In this way you will divide this land for yourselves, for the tribes of Israel.

٢٢ 22 وَيَكُونُ أَنَّكُمْ تَقْسِمُونَهَا بِٱلْقُرْعَةِ لَكُمْ وَلِلْغُرَبَاءِ ٱلْمُتَغَرِّبِينَ فِي وَسْطِكُمُ ٱلَّذِينَ يَلِدُونَ بَنِينَ فِي وَسْطِكُمْ، فَيَكُونُونَ لَكُمْ كَٱلْوَطَنِيِّينَ مِنْ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ. يُقَاسِمُونَكُمُ ٱلْمِيرَاثَ فِي وَسْطِ أَسْبَاطِ إِسْرَائِيلَ.

So you will distribute the inheritances for yourselves and for the foreigners in your midst, those who have given birth to children in your midst and who are, with you, like the native born people of Israel. You will cast lots for inheritances among the tribes of Israel.

٢٣ 23 وَيَكُونُ أَنَّهُ فِي ٱلسِّبْطِ ٱلَّذِي فِيهِ يَتَغَرَّبُ غَرِيبٌ هُنَاكَ تُعْطُونَهُ مِيرَاثَهُ، يَقُولُ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ.

Then it will happen that the foreigner will be with the tribe among whom he is living. You must give him an inheritance—this is the Lord Yahweh's declaration.”
