حِزْقِيَال 6

١ 1 وَكَانَ إِلَيَّ كَلَامُ ٱلرَّبِّ قَائِلًا:

And the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,

٢ 2 «يَا ٱبْنَ آدَمَ، ٱجْعَلْ وَجْهَكَ نَحْوَ جِبَالِ إِسْرَائِيلَ وَتَنَبَّأْ عَلَيْهَا

Son of man, set thy face against the mountains of Israel, and prophesy against them,

٣ 3 وَقُلْ: يَا جِبَالَ إِسْرَائِيلَ، ٱسْمَعِي كَلِمَةَ ٱلسَّيِّدِ ٱلرَّبِّ. هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ لِلْجِبَالِ وَلِلْآكَامِ، لِلْأَوْدِيَةِ وَلِلْأَوْطِئَةِ: هَأَنَذَا أَنَا جَالِبٌ عَلَيْكُمْ سَيْفًا، وَأُبِيدُ مُرْتَفَعَاتِكُمْ.

And thou shalt say, O mountains of Israel, hear ye the word of the Lord Eternal! Thus hath said the Lord Eternal to the mountains, and to the hills, to the brooks, and to the valleys, Behold, I, even I, will bring over you the sword, and I will destroy your high-places.

٤ 4 فَتَخْرَبُ مَذَابِحُكُمْ، وَتَتَكَسَّرُ شَمْسَاتُكُمْ، وَأَطْرَحُ قَتْلَاكُمْ قُدَّامَ أَصْنَامِكُمْ.

And your altars shall be made desolate, and your sun-images shall be broken: and I will cause your slain ones to fall before your idols.

٥ 5 وَأَضَعُ جُثَثَ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ قُدَّامَ أَصْنَامِهِمْ، وَأُذَرِّي عِظَامَكُمْ حَوْلَ مَذَابِحِكُمْ.

And I will lay the carcasses of the children of Israel before their idols; and I will scatter your bones round about your altars.

٦ 6 فِي كُلِّ مَسَاكِنِكُمْ تُقْفِرُ ٱلْمُدُنُ، وَتَخْرَبُ ٱلْمُرْتَفَعَاتُ، لِكَيْ تُقْفِرَ وَتَخْرَبَ مَذَابِحُكُمْ، وَتَنْكَسِرَ وَتَزُولَ أَصْنَامُكُمْ، وَتُقْطَعَ شَمْسَاتُكُمْ، وَتُمْحَى أَعْمَالُكُمْ،

In all your dwelling-places the cities shall be laid in ruins, and the high-places shall be made desolate; in order that your altars may be laid in ruins and made desolate, and your idols may be broken and annihilated, and your sun-images may be cut down, and your works may be blotted out.

٧ 7 وَتَسْقُطُ ٱلْقَتْلَى فِي وَسْطِكُمْ، فَتَعْلَمُونَ أَنِّي أَنَا ٱلرَّبُّ.

And the slain shall fall in the midst of you: and ye shall know that I am the Lord.

٨ 8 «وَأُبْقِي بَقِيَّةً، إِذْ يَكُونُ لَكُمْ نَاجُونَ مِنَ ٱلسَّيْفِ بَيْنَ ٱلْأُمَمِ عِنْدَ تَذَرِّيكُمْ فِي ٱلْأَرَاضِي.

Yet will I leave [some]; that ye shall have some that escape the sword among the nations, when ye shall be scattered in the [various] countries.

٩ 9 وَٱلنَّاجُونَ مِنْكُمْ يَذْكُرُونَنِي بَيْنَ ٱلْأُمَمِ ٱلَّذِينَ يُسْبَوْنَ إِلَيْهِمْ، إِذَا كَسَرْتُ قَلْبَهُمُ ٱلزَّانِيَ ٱلَّذِي حَادَ عَنِّي، وَعُيُونَهُمُ ٱلزَّانِيَةَ وَرَاءَ أَصْنَامِهِمْ، وَمَقَتُوا أَنْفُسَهُمْ لِأَجْلِ ٱلشُّرُورِ ٱلَّتِي فَعَلُوهَا فِي كُلِّ رَجَاسَاتِهِمْ،

And those of you that escape shall remember me among the nations among whom they shall have been carried captive, when I shall have broken their licentious heart, which had departed from me, even with their eyes, which were gone astray after their idols: and they shall loathe themselves on account of the evil deeds which they have committed with all their abominations.

١٠ 10 وَيَعْلَمُونَ أَنِّي أَنَا ٱلرَّبُّ، لَمْ أَقُلْ بَاطِلًا إِنِّي أَفْعَلُ بِهِمْ هَذَا ٱلشَّرَّ.

And they shall know that I am the Lord: not for naught have I spoken that I would do unto them this evil.

١١ 11 «هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ: ٱضْرِبْ بِيَدِكَ وَٱخْبِطْ بِرِجْلِكَ، وَقُلْ: آهِ عَلَى كُلِّ رَجَاسَاتِ بَيْتِ إِسْرَائِيلَ ٱلشِّرِّيرَةِ، حَتَّى يَسْقُطُوا بِٱلسَّيْفِ وَبِالْجُوعِ وَبِالْوَبَإِ!

Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Strike thy hands together, and stamp with thy foot, and say, Alas for all the dreadful abominations of the house of Israel! who will have to fall by the sword, by the famine, and by the pestilence.

١٢ 12 اَلْبَعِيدُ يَمُوتُ بِٱلْوَبَإِ، وَٱلْقَرِيبُ يَسْقُطُ بِٱلسَّيْفِ، وَٱلْبَاقِي وَٱلْمُنْحَصِرُ يَمُوتُ بِٱلْجُوعِ، فَأُتَمِّمُ غَضَبِي عَلَيْهِمْ.

He that is afar off shall die of the pestilence; and he that is near shall fall by the sword; and he that remaineth and is besieged shall die by the famine: thus will I let out all my fury on them.

١٣ 13 فَتَعْلَمُونَ أَنِّي أَنَا ٱلرَّبُّ، إِذَا كَانَتْ قَتْلَاهُمْ وَسْطِ أَصْنَامِهِمْ حَوْلَ مَذَابِحِهِمْ عَلَى كُلِّ أَكَمَةٍ عَالِيَةٍ، وَفِي رُؤُوسِ كُلِّ ٱلْجِبَالِ، وَتَحْتَ كُلِّ شَجَرَةٍ خَضْرَاءَ، وَتَحْتَ كُلِّ بَلُّوطَةٍ غَبْيَاءَ، ٱلْمَوْضِعِ ٱلَّذِي قَرَّبُوا فِيهِ رَائِحَةَ سُرُورٍ لِكُلِّ أَصْنَامِهِمْ.

And ye shall know that I am the Lord, when their slain ones shall lie in the midst of their idols round about their altars, on every high hill, upon all the tops of the mountains, and under every green tree, and under every thick-branched oak, —places where they presented sweet savor to all their idols.

١٤ 14 وَأَمُدُّ يَدِي عَلَيْهِمْ، وَأُصَيِّرُ ٱلْأَرْضَ مُقْفِرَةً وَخَرِبَةً مِنَ ٱلْقَفْرِ إِلَى دَبْلَةَ فِي كُلِّ مَسَاكِنِهِمْ، فَيَعْلَمُونَ أَنِّي أَنَا ٱلرَّبُّ».

And I will stretch out my hand over them, and I will render the land desolate and waste, more than the wilderness toward Diblath, in all their habitations: and they shall know that I am the Lord.
