< Ezekiel 28 >
1 The word of the Lord came to me again, saying,
Maka datanglah firman TUHAN kepadaku:
2 Son of man, say to the ruler of Tyre, This is what the Lord has said: Because your heart has been lifted up, and you have said, I am a god, I am seated on the seat of God in the heart of the seas; but you are man and not God, though you have made your heart as the heart of God:
"Hai anak manusia, katakanlah kepada raja Tirus: Beginilah firman Tuhan ALLAH: Karena engkau menjadi tinggi hati, dan berkata: Aku adalah Allah! Aku duduk di takhta Allah di tengah-tengah lautan. Padahal engkau adalah manusia, bukanlah Allah, walau hatimu menempatkan diri sama dengan Allah.
3 See, you are wiser than Daniel; there is no secret which is deeper than your knowledge:
Memang hikmatmu melebihi hikmat Daniel; tiada rahasia yang terlindung bagimu.
4 By your wisdom and deep knowledge you have got power for yourself, and put silver and gold in your store-houses:
Dengan hikmatmu dan pengertianmu engkau memperoleh kekayaan. Emas dan perak kaukumpulkan dalam perbendaharaanmu.
5 By your great wisdom and by your trade your power is increased, and your heart is lifted up because of your power:
Karena engkau sangat pandai berdagang engkau memperbanyak kekayaanmu, dan karena itu engkau jadi sombong.
6 For this cause the Lord has said: Because you have made your heart as the heart of God,
Oleh sebab itu beginilah firman Tuhan ALLAH: Karena hatimu menempatkan diri sama dengan Allah
7 See, I am sending against you strange men, feared among the nations: they will let loose their swords against your bright wisdom, they will make your glory a common thing.
maka, sungguh, Aku membawa orang asing melawan engkau, yaitu bangsa yang paling ganas, yang akan menghunus pedang mereka, melawan hikmatmu yang terpuja; dan semarakmu dinajiskan.
8 They will send you down to the underworld, and your death will be the death of those who are put to the sword in the heart of the seas.
Engkau diturunkannya ke lobang kubur, engkau mati seperti orang yang mati terbunuh di tengah lautan.
9 Will you say, in the face of those who are taking your life, I am God? but you are man and not God in the hands of those who are wounding you.
Apakah engkau masih akan mengatakan di hadapan pembunuhmu: Aku adalah Allah!? Padahal terhadap kuasa penikammu engkau adalah manusia, bukanlah Allah.
10 Your death will be the death of those who are without circumcision, by the hands of men from strange lands: for I have said it, says the Lord.
Engkau akan mati seperti orang tak bersunat oleh tangan orang asing. Sebab Aku yang mengatakannya, demikianlah firman Tuhan ALLAH."
11 Then the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
Lalu datanglah firman TUHAN kepadaku:
12 Son of man, make a song of grief for the king of Tyre, and say to him, This is what the Lord has said: You are all-wise and completely beautiful;
"Hai anak manusia, ucapkanlah suatu ratapan mengenai raja Tirus dan katakanlah kepadanya: Beginilah firman Tuhan ALLAH: Gambar dari kesempurnaan engkau, penuh hikmat dan maha indah.
13 You were in Eden, the garden of God; every stone of great price was your clothing, the sardius, the topaz, and the diamond, the beryl, the onyx, and the jasper, the emerald and the carbuncle: your store-houses were full of gold, and things of great price were in you; in the day when you were made they were got ready.
Engkau di taman Eden, yaitu taman Allah penuh segala batu permata yang berharga: yaspis merah, krisolit dan yaspis hijau, permata pirus, krisopras dan nefrit, lazurit, batu darah dan malakit. Tempat tatahannya diperbuat dari emas dan disediakan pada hari penciptaanmu.
14 I gave you your place with the winged one; I put you on the mountain of God; you went up and down among the stones of fire.
Kuberikan tempatmu dekat kerub yang berjaga, di gunung kudus Allah engkau berada dan berjalan-jalan di tengah batu-batu yang bercahaya-cahaya.
15 There has been no evil in your ways from the day when you were made, till sin was seen in you.
Engkau tak bercela di dalam tingkah lakumu sejak hari penciptaanmu sampai terdapat kecurangan padamu.
16 Through all your trading you have become full of violent ways, and have done evil: so I sent you out shamed from the mountain of God; the winged one put an end to you from among the stones of fire.
Dengan dagangmu yang besar engkau penuh dengan kekerasan dan engkau berbuat dosa. Maka Kubuangkan engkau dari gunung Allah dan kerub yang berjaga membinasakan engkau dari tengah batu-batu yang bercahaya.
17 Your heart was lifted up because you were beautiful, you made your wisdom evil through your sin: I have sent you down, even to the earth; I have made you low before kings, so that they may see you.
Engkau sombong karena kecantikanmu, hikmatmu kaumusnahkan demi semarakmu. Ke bumi kau Kulempar, kepada raja-raja engkau Kuserahkan menjadi tontonan bagi matanya.
18 By all your sin, even by your evil trading, you have made your holy places unclean; so I will make a fire come out from you, it will make a meal of you, and I will make you as dust on the earth before the eyes of all who see you.
Dengan banyaknya kesalahanmu dan kecurangan dalam dagangmu engkau melanggar kekudusan tempat kudusmu. Maka Aku menyalakan api dari tengahmu yang akan memakan habis engkau. Dan Kubiarkan engkau menjadi abu di atas bumi di hadapan semua yang melihatmu.
19 All who have knowledge of you among the peoples will be overcome with wonder at you: you have become a thing of fear, and you will never be seen again.
Semua di antara bangsa-bangsa yang mengenal engkau kaget melihat keadaanmu. Akhir hidupmu mendahsyatkan dan lenyap selamanya engkau."
20 And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
Lalu datanglah firman TUHAN kepadaku:
21 Son of man, let your face be turned to Zidon, and be a prophet against it, and say,
"Hai anak manusia, tujukanlah mukamu kepada Sidon dan bernubuatlah melawan dia
22 These are the words of the Lord: See, I am against you, O Zidon; and I will get glory for myself in you: and they will be certain that I am the Lord, when I send my punishments on her, and I will be seen to be holy in her.
dan katakanlah: Beginilah firman Tuhan ALLAH: Lihat, Aku menjadi lawanmu, hai Sidon, dan Aku menyatakan kemuliaan-Ku di tengah-tengahmu. Dan mereka akan mengetahui bahwa Akulah TUHAN, pada saat Aku menjatuhkan hukuman atasnya dan menunjukkan kekudusan-Ku terhadap dia.
23 And I will send on her disease and blood in her streets; and the wounded will be falling in the middle of her, and the sword will be against her on every side; and they will be certain that I am the Lord.
Aku akan mendatangkan sampar atasnya dan darah akan mengalir di jalan-jalannya dan orang-orang akan mati rebah di tengah-tengahnya karena pedang yang datang dari sekitarnya melawan dia. Dan mereka akan mengetahui bahwa Akulah TUHAN.
24 And there will no longer be a plant with sharp points wounding the children of Israel, or a thorn troubling them among any who are round about them, who put shame on them; and they will be certain that I am the Lord.
Dan tidak akan ada lagi bagi kaum Israel dari semua tetangganya yang menghina mereka, menjadi duri yang menusuk atau onak yang memedihkan. Dan mereka akan mengetahui bahwa Akulah Tuhan ALLAH.
25 This is what the Lord has said: When I have got together the children of Israel from the peoples among whom they are wandering, and have been made holy among them before the eyes of the nations, then they will have rest in the land which is theirs, which I gave to my servant Jacob
Beginilah firman Tuhan ALLAH: Pada saat Aku mengumpulkan kaum Israel dari tengah suku-suku bangsa, di mana mereka berserak dan Aku menunjukkan kekudusan-Ku kepada mereka di hadapan bangsa-bangsa, maka mereka akan diam di tanah mereka yang telah Kuberikan kepada hamba-Ku Yakub.
26 And they will be safe there, building houses and planting vine-gardens and living without fear; when I have sent my punishments on all those who put shame on them round about them; and they will be certain that I am the Lord their God.
Mereka akan diam di sana dengan aman tenteram, mereka akan membangun rumah dan membuat kebun anggur. Ya, mereka akan diam dengan aman tenteram pada saat Aku menjatuhkan hukuman atas semua tetangganya yang menghina mereka. Dan mereka akan mengetahui bahwa Akulah TUHAN, Allah mereka."
