وَفِي الْيَوْمِ الثَّانِي عَشَرَ مِنَ الشَّهْرِ الْعَاشِرِ الْعِبْرِيِّ (أَيْ كَانُونَ الأَوَّلِ – دِيسَمْبَرَ) مِنَ السَّنَةِ الْعَاشِرَةِ (لِسَبْيِ الْمَلِكِ يَهُويَاكِينَ)، أَوْحَى إِلَيَّ الرَّبُّ بِكَلِمَتِهِ قَائِلاً: ١ 1
In the tenth year, in the tenth [month], on the twelfth of the month, a word of YHWH has been to me, saying,
«يَا ابْنَ آدَمَ، الْتَفِتْ نَحْوَ فِرْعَوْنَ مَلِكِ مِصْرَ وَتَنَبَّأْ عَلَيْهِ وَعَلَى مِصْرَ كُلِّهَا ٢ 2
“Son of man, set your face against Pharaoh king of Egypt, and prophesy concerning him, and concerning Egypt—all of it.
وَقُلْ هَذَا مَا يُعْلِنُهُ السَّيِّدُ الرَّبُّ: هَا أَنَا أَنْقَلِبُ عَلَيْكَ يَا فِرْعَوْنُ مَلِكَ مِصْرَ، أَيُّهَا التِّمْسَاحُ الْكَامِنُ فِي وَسَطِ أَنْهَارِهِ، الْقَائِلُ: النَّهْرُ لِي وَقَدْ صَنَعْتُهُ لِنَفْسِي. ٣ 3
Speak, and you have said, Thus said Lord YHWH: Behold, I [am] against you, Pharaoh king of Egypt! The great dragon that is crouching in the midst of his floods, Who has said, My flood [is] my own, And I have made it [for] myself.
هَا أَنَا أَضَعُ خَزَائِمَ فِي فَكَّيْكَ وَأَجْعَلُ سَمَكَ أَنْهَارِكَ يَلْتَصِقُ بِحَرَاشِفِكَ، وَأُخْرِجُكَ قَسْراً مِنْ أَنْهَارِكَ، وَأَسْمَاكُهَا مَا بَرِحَتْ لاصِقَةً بِحَرَاشِفِكَ. ٤ 4
And I have put hooks in your jaws, And I have caused the fish of your floods to cleave to your scales, And I have caused you to come up from the midst of your floods, And every fish of your floods cleaves to your scales.
وَأَهْجُرُكَ فِي الْبَرِّيَّةِ مَعَ جَمِيعِ سَمَكِ أَنْهَارِكَ، فَتَتَهَاوَى عَلَى سَطْحِ أَرْضِ الصَّحْرَاءِ فَلا تُجْمَعُ وَلاتُلَمُّ بَلْ تَكُونُ قُوتاً لِوُحُوشِ الْبَرِّ وَلِطُيُورِ السَّمَاءِ. ٥ 5
And I have left you in the wilderness, You and every fish of your floods, You fall on the face of the field, You are not gathered nor assembled, I have given you for food to the beast of the earth and to the bird of the heavens.
فَيُدْرِكُ كُلُّ أَهْلِ مِصْرَ أَنِّي أَنَا الرَّبُّ، لأَنَّهُمْ كَانُوا عُكَّازَ قَصَبٍ هَشَّةً لِشَعْبِ إِسْرَائِيلَ، ٦ 6
And all inhabitants of Egypt have known That I [am] YHWH, Because of their being a staff of reed to the house of Israel.
مَا إِنِ اعْتَمَدُوا عَلَيْكَ بِأَكُفِّهِمْ حَتَّى انْكَسَرْتَ وَمَزَّقْتَ أَكْتَافَهُمْ، وَعِنْدَمَا تَوَكَّأُوا عَلَيْكَ تَحَطَّمْتَ وَقَصَفْتَ كُلَّ مُتُونِهِمْ. ٧ 7
In their taking hold of you by your hand, You crush and have torn every shoulder of theirs, And in their leaning on you you are broken, And have caused all their thighs to stand.
لِذَلِكَ هَا أَنَا أَجْلِبُ عَلَيْكَ سَيْفاً وَأَسْتَأْصِلُ مِنْكَ الإِنْسَانَ وَالْحَيَوَانَ، ٨ 8
Therefore, thus said Lord YHWH: Behold, I am bringing in a sword against you, And have cut off man and beast from you.
فَتُصْبِحُ دِيَارُ مِصْرَ مُقْفِرَةً خَرِبَةً، فَيُدْرِكُونَ أَنِّي أَنَا الرَّبُّ، لأَنَّ فِرْعَوْنَ قَالَ: لِيَ النَّهْرُ وَأَنَا قَدْ صَنَعْتُهُ. ٩ 9
And the land of Egypt has been for a desolation and a ruin, And they have known that I [am] YHWH, Because he said: The flood [is] mine, and I made [it].
لِذَلِكَ هَا أَنَا أَنْقَلِبُ عَلَيْكَ وَعَلَى أَنْهَارِكَ، وَأَجْعَلُ أَرَاضِي مِصْرَ خَرَائِبَ مُتَرَدِّمَةً مُقْفِرَةً، مِنْ مَجْدَلَ إِلَى أَسْوَانَ حَتَّى تُخُومِ إِثْيُوبِيَا. ١٠ 10
Therefore, behold, I [am] against you, and against your floods, And have given the land of Egypt for ruins, A dry place, a desolation, from Migdol to Syene, And to the border of Cush.
لَا تَمُرُّ بِها قَدَمُ إِنْسَانٍ وَلا تَجْتَازُهَا رِجْلُ بَهِيمَةٍ، وَتَظَلُّ مَهْجُورَةً مِنَ النَّاسِ طَوَالَ أَرْبَعِينَ سَنَةً. ١١ 11
A foot of man does not pass over into it, Indeed, the foot of beast does not pass into it, Nor is it inhabited forty years.
وَأَجْعَلُ دِيَارَ مِصْرَ الأَكْثَرَ وَحْشَةً بَيْنَ الأَرَاضِي الْمُقْفِرَةِ، وَتَظَلُّ مُدُنُهَا الأَكْثَرَ خَرَاباً بَيْنَ الْمُدُنِ الْخَرِبَةِ وَأَشَدَّهَا وَحْشَةً طَوَالَ أَرْبَعِينَ سَنَةً، وَأُشَتِّتُ الْمِصْرِيِّينَ بَيْنَ الأُمَمِ وَأُفَرِّقُهُمْ فِي الْبُلْدَانِ. ١٢ 12
And I have made the land of Egypt a desolation, In the midst of desolate lands, And its cities, in the midst of cities [that are] laid waste, Are a desolation [for] forty years, And I have scattered the Egyptians among nations, And I have dispersed them through lands.
وَفِي نِهَايَةِ الأَرْبَعِينَ سَنَةً أَجْمَعُ الْمِصْرِيِّينَ مِنْ بَيْنِ الشُّعُوبِ الَّتِي تَشَتَّتُوا بَيْنَهَا. ١٣ 13
But thus said Lord YHWH: At the end of forty years I gather the Egyptians Out of the peoples to where they have been scattered,
وَأَرُدُّ سَبْيَهُمْ، وَأُعِيدُهُمْ إِلَى أَرْضِ فَتْرُوسَ مَوْطِنِهِمْ، فَيَكُونُونَ هُنَاكَ مَمْلَكَةً حَقِيرَةً. ١٤ 14
And I have turned back [to] the captivity of Egypt, And I have brought them back [To] the land of Pathros, to the land of their birth, And they have been a low kingdom there.
بَلْ تَكُونُ أَحْقَرَ الْمَمَالِكِ فَلا تَتَشَامَخُ بَعْدُ عَلَى بَقِيَّةِ الأُمَمِ، وَأَجْعَلُهُمْ أَقَلِّيَّةً لِئَلّا يَتَسَلَّطُوا عَلَى الشُّعُوبِ. ١٥ 15
It is lowest of the kingdoms, And it does not lift itself up above the nations anymore, And I have made them few, So as not to rule among nations.
فَلا تَكُونُ بَعْدُ مَحَطَّ اعْتِمَادٍ لِشَعْبِ إِسْرَائِيلَ، بَلْ تُذَكِّرُهُمْ بِإِثْمِهِمْ حِينَ ضَلُّوا وَرَاءَهُمْ، فَيُدْرِكُونَ أَنِّي أَنَا السَّيِّدُ الرَّبُّ». ١٦ 16
And it is no longer for confidence to the house of Israel, Bringing iniquity to remembrance, By their turning after them, And they have known that I [am] Lord YHWH.”
وَفِي مَطْلَعِ الشَّهْرِ الأَوَّلِ الْعِبْرِيِّ (أَيْ آذَارَ – مَارِسَ) فِي السَّنَةِ السَّابِعَةِ وَالْعِشْرِينَ (مِنْ سَبْيِ الْمَلِكِ يَهُويَاكِينَ) أَوْحَى إِلَيَّ الرَّبُّ بِكَلِمَتِهِ قَائِلاً: ١٧ 17
And it comes to pass, in the twenty-seventh year, in the first [month], on the first of the month, a word of YHWH has been to me, saying,
«يَا ابْنَ آدَمَ، إِنَّ نَبُوخَذْنَصَّرَ مَلِكَ بَابِلَ قَدْ سَخَّرَ جَيْشَهُ أَشَدَّ تَسْخِيرٍ ضِدَّ صُورَ، فَأَصْبَحَتْ كُلُّ رَأْسٍ مِنْ رُؤُوسِ جُنُودِهِ صَلْعَاءَ، وَكُلُّ كَتِفٍ مُجَرَّدَةً مِنَ الثِّيَابِ. وَلَكِنْ لَمْ يَغْنَمْ هُوَ وَلا جَيْشُهُ شَيْئاً مِنْ صُورَ رَغْمَ مَا كَابَدَهُ مِنْ جَهْدٍ لِلاِسْتِيلاءِ عَلَيْهَا. ١٨ 18
“Son of man, Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, Has caused his force to serve a great service against Tyre, Every head [is] bald—every shoulder peeled, And neither he, nor his force, had reward out of Tyre, For the service that he served against it.
لِذَلِكَ هَذَا مَا يُعْلِنُهُ السَّيِّدُ الرَّبُّ: هَا أَنَا أَبْذُلُ دِيَارَ مِصْرَ لِنَبُوخَذْنَصَّرَ مَلِكِ بَابِلَ فَيَسْتَوْلِي عَلَى ثَرْوَتِهَا، وَيَسْلُبُهَا غَنَائِمَهَا وَيَنْهَبُهَا، فَتَكُونُ هَذِهِ أُجْرَةً لِجَيْشِهِ. ١٩ 19
Therefore, thus said Lord YHWH: Behold, I am giving the land of Egypt to Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, And he has taken away its store, And has taken its spoil, and taken its prey, And it has been a reward to his force.
قَدْ أَعْطَيْتُهُ أَرْضَ مِصْرَ لِقَاءَ تَعَبِهِ، لأَنَّهُ وَجَيْشَهُ قَدْ عَمِلُوا فِي خِدْمَتِي، يَقُولُ السَّيِّدُ الرَّبُّ. ٢٠ 20
I have given to him his wage for which he labored—The land of Egypt, in that they worked for Me, A declaration of Lord YHWH.
فِي ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمِ، أُنْمِي قُوَّةَ شَعْبِ إِسْرَائِيلَ وَأَفْتَحُ فَمَكَ بَيْنَهُمْ، فَيُدْرِكُونَ أَنِّي أَنَا الرَّبُّ». ٢١ 21
In that day I cause a horn to shoot up for the house of Israel, And I give an opening to your mouth in their midst, And they have known that I [am] YHWH!”
