حِزْقِيال 6

١ 1 وَأَوْحَى إِلَيَّ الرَّبُّ قَائِلاً:

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

٢ 2 «يَا ابْنَ آدَمَ، الْتَفِتْ بِوَجْهِكَ نَحْوَ جِبَالِ إِسْرَائِيلَ وَتَنَبَّأْ عَلَيْهَا،

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

٣ 3 وَقُلْ: يَا جِبَالَ إِسْرَائِيلَ أَصْغِي إِلَى كَلِمَةِ السَّيِّدِ الرَّبِّ الَّذِي يَقُولُ لِلْجِبَالِ وَالتِّلالِ وَالأَنْهَارِ وَالأَوْدِيَةِ: هَا أَنَا أَجْلِبُ عَلَيْكُمْ سَيْفاً وَأَهْدِمُ مُرْتَفَعَاتِكُمْ،

And say, All of you mountains of Israel, hear the word of the Lord GOD; Thus says the Lord GOD to the mountains, and to the hills, to the rivers, and to the valleys; Behold, I, even I, will bring a sword upon you, and I will destroy your high places.

٤ 4 فَتُصْبِحُ مَذَابِحُكُمْ أَطْلالاً، وَتَتَحَطَّمُ مَذَابِحُ بَخُورِكُمْ وَأَطْرَحُ قَتْلاكُمْ أَمَامَ أَصْنَامِكُمْ،

And your altars shall be desolate, and your images shall be broken: and I will cast down your slain men before your idols.

٥ 5 وَأُلْقِي جُثَثَ أَبْنَاءِ إِسْرَائِيلَ أَمَامَ أَوْثَانِهِمْ، وَأُذَرِّي عِظَامَكُمْ حَوْلَ مَذَابِحِكُمْ.

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

٦ 6 وَحَيْثُمَا تُقِيمُونَ تَتَحَوَّلُ مُدُنُكُمْ إِلَى أَطْلالٍ، وَمُرْتَفَعَاتُ عِبَادَتِكُمْ إِلَى خَرَائِبَ، وَأَصْنَامُكُمْ إِلَى حُطَامٍ وَدَمَارٍ، وَمَذَابِحُ بَخُورِكُمْ إِلَى أَنْقَاضٍ، وَأَعْمَالُكُمْ إِلَى فَنَاءٍ،

In all your dwelling places the cities shall be laid waste, and the high places shall be desolate; that your altars may be laid waste and made desolate, and your idols may be broken and cease, and your images may be cut down, and your works may be abolished.

٧ 7 وَيَسْقُطُ الْقَتِيلُ فِي وَسَطِكُمْ، فَتُدْرِكُونَ أَنِّي أَنَا الرَّبُّ.

And the slain shall fall in the midst of you, and all of you shall know that I am the LORD.

٨ 8 وَأَعْفُو عَنْ بَقِيَّةٍ مِنْكُمْ لِيَكُونَ لَكُمْ نَاجُونَ مِنَ السَّيْفِ يَتَشَتَّتُونَ بَيْنَ الأُمَمِ، إِذْ تَتَبَدَّدُونَ فِي كُلِّ الأَرْضِ.

Yet will I leave a remnant, that all of you may have some that shall escape the sword among the nations, when all of you shall be scattered through the countries.

٩ 9 عِنْدَئِذٍ يَذْكُرُنِي النَّاجُونَ مِنْكُمْ، الْمُشَتَّتُونَ بَيْنَ الأُمَمِ الَّتِي سَبَيْتُهُمْ إِلَيْهَا، لأَنِّي سَحَقْتُ قُلُوبَهُمُ الزَّانِيَةَ الَّتِي ضَلَّتْ عَنِّي، وَعُيُونَهُمُ الَّتِي زَاغَتْ وَرَاءَ أَصْنَامِهِمْ، فَيَعَافُونَ أَنْفُسَهُمْ مِنْ جَرَّاءِ مَا ارْتَكَبُوهُ مِنْ شُرُورٍ، وَمِنْ أَجْلِ مَا اقْتَرَفُوهُ مِنْ أَرْجَاسٍ،

And they that escape of you shall remember me among the nations where they shall be carried captives, because I am broken with their whorish heart, which has departed from me, and with their eyes, which go a whoring after their idols: and they shall loathe themselves for the evils which they have committed in all their abominations.

١٠ 10 فَيُدْرِكُونَ أَنِّي أَنَا الرَّبُّ، لَمْ أَتَكَلَّمْ عَبَثاً حِينَ تَوَعَّدْتُهُمْ بِهَذَا الشَّرِّ».

And they shall know that I am the LORD, and that I have not said in vain that I would do this evil unto them.

١١ 11 وَهَذَا مَا يُعْلِنُهُ السَّيِّدُ الرَّبُّ: «صَفِّقْ بِيَدَيْكَ، وَاخْبِطْ بِرِجْلِكَ قَائِلاً: آهِ مِنْ كُلِّ رَجَاسَاتِ شَعْبِ إِسْرَائِيلَ الشِّرِّيرَةِ، فَإِنَّهُمْ سَيَمُوتُونَ بِالسَّيْفِ وَالْجُوعِ وَالْوَبَاءِ.

Thus says the Lord GOD; Strike with your hand, and stamp with your foot, and say, Alas for all the evil abominations of the house of Israel! for they shall fall by the sword, by the famine, and by the pestilence.

١٢ 12 يَمُوتُ الْبَعِيدُ بِالْوَبَاءِ، وَالْقَرِيبُ يَصْرَعُهُ السَّيْفُ، وَالْبَاقِي مِنْهُمْ وَالْمُحَاصَرُ تَقْضِي عَلَيْهِمِ الْمَجَاعَةُ. وَهَكَذَا أَنْفُثُ فِيهِمْ حَنَقِي.

He that is far off shall die of the pestilence; and he that is near shall fall by the sword; and he that remains and is besieged shall die by the famine: thus will I accomplish my fury upon them.

١٣ 13 عِنْدَئِذٍ تُدْرِكُونَ أَنِّي أَنَا الرَّبُّ، حِينَ يَتَنَاثَرُ قَتْلاهُمْ بَيْنَ أَصْنَامِهِمْ حَوْلَ مَذَابِحِهِمْ، وَفَوْقَ كُلِّ أَكَمَةٍ عَالِيَةٍ، وَعَلَى قِمَمِ جَمِيعِ الْجِبَالِ، وَتَحْتَ كُلِّ شَجَرَةٍ خَضْرَاءَ وَبَلُّوطَةٍ مُوْرِقَةٍ حَيْثُ كَانُوا يُقَرِّبُونَ رَائِحَةَ سُرُورٍ لِكُلِّ أَوْثَانِهِمْ.

Then shall all of you know that I am the LORD, when their slain men shall be among their idols round about their altars, upon every high hill, in all the tops of the mountains, and under every green tree, and under every thick oak, the place where they did offer sweet savour to all their idols.

١٤ 14 وَأَمُدُّ يَدِي عَلَيْهِمْ فِي جَمِيعِ مَوَاطِنِ إِقَامَتِهِمْ، فَأَجْعَلُ الأَرْضَ خَرِبَةً مُوْحِشَةً مِنَ الصَّحْرَاءِ إِلَى دَبْلَةَ، فَيُدْرِكُونَ أَنِّي أَنَا الرَّبُّ».

So will I stretch out my hand upon them, and make the land desolate, yea, more desolate than the wilderness toward Diblath, in all their habitations: and they shall know that I am the LORD.
