Ezekiel 26

1 And it came to pass in the eleventh year, the first day of the month, that the word of the Lord came to me, saying:

١ وَفِي السَّنَةِ الْحَادِيَةِ عَشَرَةَ (مِنْ سَبْيِ الْمَلِكِ يَهُويَاكِينَ)، فِي الْيَوْمِ الأَوَّلِ مِنْ الشَّهْرِ، أَوْحَى إِلَيَّ الرَّبُّ بِكَلِمَتِهِ قَائِلاً:

2 Son of man, because Tyre hath said of Jerusalem: Aha, the gates of the people are broken, she is turned to me: I shall be filled, now she is laid waste.

٢ «يَا ابْنَ آدَمَ، لأَنَّ صُورَ قَدْ شَمِتَتْ بِأُورُشَلِيمَ، وَقَالَتْ: هَا بَوَّابَةُ الشُّعُوبِ قَدِ انْهَارَتْ، وَتَحَوَّلَتِ الْقَوَافِلُ إِلَيَّ. هَا أَنَا أَزْدَهِرُ إِذْ حَلَّ بِها الدَّمَارُ.

3 Therefore thus saith the Lord God: Behold I come against thee, O Tyre, and I will cause many nations to come up to thee, as the waves of the sea rise up.

٣ لِذَلِكَ يُعْلِنُ السَّيِّدُ الرَّبُّ: هَا أَنَا أُعَاقِبُكِ يَا صُورُ، فَأَجْعَلُ أُمَماً كَثِيرَةً تُهَاجِمُكِ كَمَا يَهْجِمُ الْبَحْرُ بِأَمْوَاجِهِ.

4 And they shall break down the walls of Tyre, and destroy the towers thereof: and I will scrape her dust from her, and make her like a smooth rock.

٤ فَيَهْدِمُونَ أَسْوَارَ صُورَ وَأَبْرَاجَهَا، وَأَكْشِطُ تُرَابَهَا عَنْهَا، وَأُحَوِّلُهَا إِلَى صَخْرَةٍ جَرْدَاءَ.

5 She shall be a drying place for nets in the midst of the sea, because I have spoken it, saith the Lord God: and she shall be a spoil to the nations.

٥ فَتُصْبِحُ مَنْشَراً لِلشِّبَاكِ فِي وَسَطِ الْبَحْرِ لأَنِّي أَنَا قَضَيْتُ، يَقُولُ السَّيِّدُ الرَّبُّ، ثُمَّ تَغْدُو غَنِيمَةً لِلأُمَمِ.

6 Her daughters also that are in the field, shall be slain by the sword: and they shall know that I am the Lord.

٦ وَتَهْلِكُ ضَوَاحِيهَا الرِّيفِيَّةُ بِالسَّيْفِ، فَيُدْرِكُونَ أَنِّي أَنَا الرَّبُّ.

7 For thus saith the Lord God: Behold I will bring against Tyre Nabuchodonosor king of Babylon, the king of kings, from the north, with horses, and chariots, and horsemen, and companies, and much people.

٧ لأَنَّ هَذَا مَا يُعْلِنُهُ السَّيِّدُ الرَّبُّ: هَا أَنَا آتِي بِمَلِكِ الْمُلُوكِ، نَبُوخَذْنَصَّرَ مَلِكِ بَابِلَ مِنَ الشِّمَالِ بِخَيْلٍ وَبِمَرْكَبَاتٍ وَبِفُرْسَانٍ وَأَقْوَامٍ غَفِيرَةٍ،

8 Thy daughters that are in the field, he shall kill with the sword: and he shall compass thee with forts, and shall cast up a mount round about: and he shall lift up the buckler against thee.

٨ فَيُبِيدُ بِالسَّيْفِ قُرَى رِيفِكِ وَيُشَيِّدُ حَوْلَكِ سُورَ حِصَارٍ، وَيَبْنِي عَلَيْكِ أَبْرَاجاً، وَيُقِيمُ مِتْرَسَةً، وَيُهَاجِمُكِ بِتُرْسٍ.

9 And he shall set engines of mar and battering rams against thy walls, and shall destroy thy towers with his arms.

٩ وَيَقْذِفُ أَسْوَارَكِ بِمَجَانِقَ، وَيَهْدِمُ أَبْرَاجَكِ بِعُدَّةِ حَرْبِهِ.

10 By reason of the multitude of his horses, their dust shall cover thee: thy walls shall shake at the noise of the horsemen, and wheels, and chariots, when they shall go in at thy gates, as by the entrance of a city that is destroyed.

١٠ وَلِكَثْرَةِ خَيْلِهِ يَحْجُبُكِ غُبَارُ حَوَافِرِهَا، وَتَتَزَلْزَلُ أَسْوَارُكِ مِنْ صَوْتِ الْفُرْسَانِ وَالْعَرَبَاتِ وَالْمَرْكَبَاتِ عِنْدَ اقْتِحَامِهِ أَبْوَابَكِ كَمَا تُقْتَحَمُ مَدِينَةٌ بِها ثَغْرَاتٌ،

11 With the hoofs of his horses he shall tread down all thy streets: thy people he shall kill with the sword, and thy famous statues shall fall to the ground.

١١ فَيَدُوسُ بِحَوَافِرِ خَيْلِهِ كُلَّ شَوَارِعِكِ، وَيَقْضِي بِالسَّيْفِ عَلَى شَعْبِكِ، فَتَتَهَاوَى إِلَى الأَرْضِ أَرْكَانُ عِزِّكِ،

12 They shall waste thy riches, they shall make a spoil of thy merchandise: and they shall destroy thy walls, and pull down thy fine houses: and they shall lay thy stones and thy timber, and thy dust in the midst of the waters.

١٢ وَيَنْهَبُونَ ثَرْوَتَكِ، وَيَسْتَوْلُونَ عَلَى تِجَارَتِكِ وَيَهْدِمُونَ أَسْوَارَكِ وَبُيُوتَكِ الْمُبْهِجَةَ، وَيَطْرَحُونَ حِجَارَتَكِ وَخَشَبَكِ وَتُرَابَكِ إِلَى مِيَاهِ الْبَحْرِ.

13 And I will make the multitude of thy songs to cease, and the sound of thy harps shall be heard no more.

١٣ وَأُخْرِسُ أَهَازِيجَ أَغَانِيكِ، وَلا تَتَرَدَّدُ بَعْدُ رَنَّاتُ أَعْوَادِكِ،

14 And I will make thee like a naked rock, then shalt be a drying place for nets, neither shalt thou be built any more: for I have spoken it, saith. the Lord God.

١٤ وَأَجْعَلُكِ كَصَخْرَةٍ جَرْدَاءَ، فَتَكُونِينَ مَنْشَراً لِلشِّبَاكِ، وَلا تُعْمَرِينَ فِي مَا بَعْدُ. لأَنِّي أَنَا الرَّبُّ قَضَيْتُ يَقُولُ السَّيِّدُ الرَّبُّ.

15 Thus saith the Lord God to Tyre: Shall not the islands shake at the sound of thy fall, and the groans of thy slain when they shall be killed in the midst of thee?

١٥ وَهَذَا مَا يُعْلِنُهُ السَّيِّدُ الرَّبُّ عَنْ مَدِينَةِ صُورَ: أَلا تَرْتَعِدُ مُدُنُ السَّوَاحِلِ لِجَلَبَةِ سُقُوطِكِ، وَلِصُرَاخِ الْجَرْحَى، وَلِوُقُوعِ الْقَتْلِ فِيكِ،

16 Then all the princes of the sea shall come down from their thrones: and take off their robes, and cast away their broidered garments, and be clothed with astonishment: they shall sit on the ground, and with amazement shall wonder at thy sudden fall.

١٦ فَيَنْزِلُ جَمِيعُ رُؤَسَاءِ الْمُدُنِ السَّاحِلِيَّةِ عَنْ عُرُوشِهِمْ وَيَخْلَعُونَ جُبَبَهُمْ وَيَطْرَحُونَ عَنْهُمْ أَرْدِيَتَهُمُ الْمُزَرْكَشَةَ، وَيَكْتَسُونَ الرُّعْبَ ثَوْباً، وَيَجْلِسُونَ عَلَى الأَرْضِ مُرْتَجِفِينَ فِي كُلِّ لَحْظَةٍ، مَذْعُورِينَ لِمَا أَصَابَكِ

17 And taking up a lamentation over thee, they shall sag to thee: How art thou fallen, that dwellest in the sea, renowned city that wast strong in the sea, with thy inhabitants whom all did dread?

١٧ عِنْدَئِذٍ يَنُوحُونَ عَلَيْكِ بِمَرْثَاةٍ قَائِلِينَ: كَيْفَ تَلاشَيْتِ مِنْ بَيْنِ الْبِحَارِ أَيَّتُهَا الْمَدِينَةُ الْعَامِرَةُ الشَّهِيرَةُ، الَّتِي كَانَتْ مُسَيْطِرَةً هِيَ وَسُكَّانُهَا عَلَى الْبَحْرِ، فَأَلْقَوْا رُعْبَهُمْ عَلَى جَمِيعِ جِيرَانِهَا.

18 Now shall the ships be astonished in the day of thy terror: and the islands in the sea shall be troubled because no one cometh out of thee.

١٨ الآنَ تَرْتَعِدُ مُدُنُ السَّوَاحِلِ فِي وَقْتِ سُقُوطِكِ، وَتَضْطَرِبُ الْجَزَائِرُ فِي وَسَطِ الْبَحْرِ لاِنْهِيَارِكِ،

19 For thus saith the Lord God: When I shall make thee a desolate city like the cities that are not inhabited: and shall bring the deep upon thee, and many waters shall cover thee:

١٩ إِذْ أُحَوِّلُكِ إِلَى مَدِينَةٍ خَرِبَةٍ كَالْمُدُنِ الْمُقْفِرَةِ. أُطْغِي عَلَيْكِ لُجَجَ الْبَحْرِ وَأَغْمُرُكِ بِالْمِيَاهِ الْكَثِيرَةِ،

20 And when I shall bring thee down with those that descend into the pit to the everlasting people, and shall set thee in the lowest parts of the earth, as places desolate of old, with them that are brought down into the pit, that thou be not inhabited: and when I shall give glory in the land of the living,

٢٠ وَأُحْدِرُكِ مَعَ الْهَابِطِينَ إِلَى الْهَاوِيَةِ، إِلَى الشَّعْبِ الْقَدِيمِ، وَأَجْعَلُكِ تُقِيمِينَ فِي أَسَافِلِ الأَرْضِ فِي الْخِرَبِ الدَّائِرَةِ لِتَظَلِّي مُقْفِرَةً، فَلا يَكُونُ لَكِ مَكَانٌ فِي أَرْضِ الأَحْيَاءِ،

21 I will bring thee to nothing, and thou shalt not be, and if thou be sought for, thou shalt not be found any more for ever, saith the Lord God.

٢١ وَأَجْلِبُ الرُّعْبَ عَلَيْكِ فَلا يَبْقَى مِنْكِ أَثَرٌ وَإِذْ يُبْحَثُ عَنْكِ لَا يُعْثَرُ عَلَيْكِ أَبَداً، يَقُولُ السَّيِّدُ الرَّبُّ».
