Ezekiel 5

1 And you, son of man, take a sharp sword, using it like a haircutter's blade, and making it go over your head and the hair of your chin: and take scales for separating the hair by weight.

١ «وَأَنْتَ يَا ٱبْنَ آدَمَ، فَخُذْ لِنَفْسِكَ سِكِّينًا حَادًّا، مُوسَى ٱلْحَلَّاقِ تَأْخُذُ لِنَفْسِكَ، وَأَمْرِرْهَا عَلَى رَأْسِكَ وَعَلَى لِحْيَتِكَ. وَخُذْ لِنَفْسِكَ مِيزَانًا لِلْوَزْنِ وَٱقْسِمْهُ،

2 You are to have a third part burned with fire inside the town, when the days of the attack are ended; and a third part you are to take and give blows with the sword round about it; and give a third part for the wind to take away, and let loose a sword after them.

٢ وَأَحْرِقْ بِٱلنَّارِ ثُلُثَهُ فِي وَسْطِ ٱلْمَدِينَةِ إِذَا تَمَّتْ أَيَّامُ ٱلْحِصَارِ. وَخُذْ ثُلُثًا وَٱضْرِبْهُ بِٱلسَّيْفِ حَوَالَيْهِ، وَذَرِّ ثُلُثًا إِلَى ٱلرِّيحِ، وَأَنَا أَسْتَلُّ سَيْفًا وَرَاءَهُمْ.

3 And take from them a small number of hairs, folding them in your skirts.

٣ وَخُذْ مِنْهُ قَلِيلًا بِٱلْعَدَدِ وَصُرَّهُ فِي أَذْيَالِكَ.

4 And again take some of these and put them in the fire, burning them up in the fire; and say to all the children of Israel,

٤ وَخُذْ مِنْهُ أَيْضًا وَأَلْقِهِ فِي وَسْطِ ٱلنَّارِ، وَأَحْرِقْهُ بِٱلنَّارِ. مِنْهُ تَخْرُجُ نَارٌ عَلَى كُلِّ بَيْتِ إِسْرَائِيلَ.

5 This is what the Lord has said: This is Jerusalem: I have put her among the nations, and countries are round her on every side;

٥ «هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ: هَذِهِ أُورُشَلِيمُ. فِي وَسْطِ ٱلشُّعُوبِ قَدْ أَقَمْتُهَا وَحَوَالَيْهَا ٱلْأَرَاضِي.

6 And she has gone against my orders by doing evil more than the nations, and against my rules more than the countries round her: for they have given up my orders, and as for my rules, they have not gone in the way of them.

٦ فَخَالَفَتْ أَحْكَامِي بِأَشَرَّ مِنَ ٱلْأُمَمِ، وَفَرَائِضِي بِأَشَرَّ مِنَ ٱلْأَرَاضِي ٱلَّتِي حَوَالَيْهَا، لِأَنَّ أَحْكَامِي رَفَضُوهَا وَفَرَائِضِي لَمْ يَسْلُكُوا فِيهَا.

7 For this cause the Lord has said: Because you have been more uncontrolled than the nations round about you, and have not been guided by my rules or kept my orders, but have kept the orders of the nations round about you;

٧ لِأَجْلِ ذَلِكَ هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ: مِنْ أَجْلِ أَنَّكُمْ ضَجَجْتُمْ أَكْثَرَ مِنَ ٱلْأُمَمِ ٱلَّتِي حَوَالَيْكُمْ، وَلَمْ تَسْلُكُوا فِي فَرَائِضِي، وَلَمْ تَعْمَلُوا حَسَبَ أَحْكَامِي، وَلَا عَمِلْتُمْ حَسَبَ أَحْكَامِ ٱلْأُمَمِ ٱلَّتِي حَوَالَيْكُمْ،

8 For this cause the Lord has said: See, I, even I, am against you; and I will be judging among you before the eyes of the nations.

٨ لِذَلِكَ هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ: هَا إِنِّي أَنَا أَيْضًا عَلَيْكِ، وَسَأُجْرِي فِي وَسْطِكِ أَحْكَامًا أَمَامَ عُيُونِ ٱلْأُمَمِ،

9 And I will do in you what I have not done and will not do again, because of all your disgusting ways.

٩ وَأَفْعَلُ بِكِ مَا لَمْ أَفْعَلْ، وَمَا لَنْ أَفْعَلَ مِثْلَهُ بَعْدُ، بِسَبَبِ كُلِّ أَرْجَاسِكِ.

10 For this cause fathers will take their sons for food among you, and sons will make a meal of their fathers; and I will be judge among you, and all the rest of you I will send away to every wind.

١٠ لِأَجْلِ ذَلِكَ تَأْكُلُ ٱلْآبَاءُ ٱلْأَبْنَاءَ فِي وَسْطِكِ، وَٱلْأَبْنَاءُ يَأْكُلُونَ آبَاءَهُمْ. وَأُجْرِي فِيكِ أَحْكَامًا، وَأُذَرِّي بَقِيَّتَكِ كُلَّهَا فِي كُلِّ رِيحٍ.

11 For this cause, by my life, says the Lord, because you have made my holy place unclean with all your hated things and all your disgusting ways, you will become disgusting to me; my eye will have no mercy and I will have no pity.

١١ مِنْ أَجْلِ ذَلِكَ حَيٌّ أَنَا، يَقُولُ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ، مِنْ أَجْلِ أَنَّكِ قَدْ نَجَّسْتِ مَقْدِسِي بِكُلِّ مَكْرُهَاتِكِ وَبِكُلِّ أَرْجَاسِكِ، فَأَنَا أَيْضًا أَجُزُّ وَلَا تُشْفُقُ عَيْنِي، وَأَنَا أَيْضًا لَا أَعْفُو.

12 A third of you will come to death from disease, wasting away among you through need of food; a third will be put to the sword round about you; and a third I will send away to every wind, letting loose a sword after them.

١٢ ثُلُثُكِ يَمُوتُ بِٱلْوَبَإِ، وَبِالْجُوعِ يَفْنَوْنَ فِي وَسْطِكِ. وَثُلُثٌ يَسْقُطُ بِٱلسَّيْفِ مِنْ حَوْلِكِ، وَثُلُثٌ أُذَرِّيهِ فِي كُلِّ رِيحٍ، وَأَسْتَلُّ سَيْفًا وَرَاءَهُمْ.

13 So my wrath will be complete and my passion will come to rest on them; and they will be certain that I the Lord have given the word of decision, when my wrath against them is complete.

١٣ وَإِذَا تَمَّ غَضَبِي وَأَحْلَلْتُ سَخَطِي عَلَيْهِمْ وَتَشَفَّيْتُ، يَعْلَمُونَ أَنِّي أَنَا ٱلرَّبُّ تَكَلَّمْتُ فِي غَيْرَتِي، إِذَا أَتْمَمْتُ سَخَطِي فِيهِمْ.

14 And I will make you a waste and a name of shame among the nations round about you, in the eyes of everyone who goes by.

١٤ وَأَجْعَلُكِ خَرَابًا وَعَارًا بَيْنَ ٱلْأُمَمِ ٱلَّتِي حَوَالَيْكِ أَمَامَ عَيْنَيْ كُلِّ عَابِرٍ،

15 And you will be a name of shame and a cause of bitter words, an example and a wonder to the nations round about you, when I give effect to my judging among you in wrath and in passion and in burning protests: I the Lord have said it:

١٥ فَتَكُونِينَ عَارًا وَلَعْنَةً وَتَأْدِيبًا وَدَهَشًا لِلْأُمَمِ ٱلَّتِي حَوَالَيْكِ، إِذَا أَجْرَيْتُ فِيكِ أَحْكَامًا بِغَضَبٍ وَبِسَخَطٍ وَبِتَوْبِيخَاتٍ حَامِيَةٍ. أَنَا ٱلرَّبُّ تَكَلَّمْتُ.

16 When I send on you the evil arrows of disease, causing destruction, which I will send to put an end to you; and, further, I will take away your necessary food.

١٦ إِذَا أَرْسَلْتُ عَلَيْهِمْ سِهَامَ ٱلْجُوعِ ٱلشِّرِّيرَةَ ٱلَّتِي تَكُونُ لِلْخَرَابِ ٱلَّتِي أُرْسِلُهَا لِخَرَابِكُمْ، وَأَزِيدُ ٱلْجُوعَ عَلَيْكُمْ، وَأُكَسِّرُ لَكُمْ قِوَامَ ٱلْخُبْزِ،

17 And I will send on you need of food and evil beasts, and they will be a cause of loss to you; and disease and violent death will go through you; and I will send the sword on you: I the Lord have said it.

١٧ وَإِذَا أَرْسَلْتُ عَلَيْكُمُ ٱلْجُوعَ وَٱلْوُحُوشَ ٱلرَّدِيئَةَ فَتُثْكِلُكِ، وَيَعْبُرُ فِيكِ ٱلْوَبَأُ وَٱلدَّمُ، وَأَجْلُبُ عَلَيْكِ سَيْفًا. أَنَا ٱلرَّبُّ تَكَلَّمْتُ».
