Ezekiel 28
1 A message from the Lord came to me, saying,
Maka datanglah firman TUHAN kepadaku:
2 “Son of man, tell the ruler of Tyre this is what the Lord God says: You are so proud of yourself, saying, ‘I'm a god! I sit on my throne like a god in the middle of the sea.’ But you're only a man. You're not a god, even though you think you are one.
"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 You even think you're wiser than Daniel and there's no secret that's hidden from you!
Memang hikmatmu melebihi hikmat Daniel; tiada rahasia yang terlindung bagimu.
4 Yes, you have used your wisdom and cleverness to make yourself rich, collecting plenty of gold and silver for your treasury.
Dengan hikmatmu dan pengertianmu engkau memperoleh kekayaan. Emas dan perak kaukumpulkan dalam perbendaharaanmu.
5 You became wealthy through your superb trading skills, but your wealth only made you proud.
Karena engkau sangat pandai berdagang engkau memperbanyak kekayaanmu, dan karena itu engkau jadi sombong.
6 So this is what the Lord God says: Because you think that you're a god,
Oleh sebab itu beginilah firman Tuhan ALLAH: Karena hatimu menempatkan diri sama dengan Allah
7 watch as I bring foreigners to attack you. They are more cruel than any other nation. They will use their swords to destroy you and your wonderful wisdom; they will humble your proud glory.
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 drag you down into the grave. You will die horribly out there in the sea.
Engkau diturunkannya ke lobang kubur, engkau mati seperti orang yang mati terbunuh di tengah lautan.
9 Are you still going to claim, ‘I'm a god,’ to those who are killing you? You'll just be another human victim, not a god, in the eyes of your attackers.
Apakah engkau masih akan mengatakan di hadapan pembunuhmu: Aku adalah Allah!? Padahal terhadap kuasa penikammu engkau adalah manusia, bukanlah Allah.
10 You will be killed like some vile person by these foreigners. I myself have spoken, declares the Lord God.”
Engkau akan mati seperti orang tak bersunat oleh tangan orang asing. Sebab Aku yang mengatakannya, demikianlah firman Tuhan ALLAH."
11 Another message from the Lord came to me, saying,
Lalu datanglah firman TUHAN kepadaku:
12 “Son of man, sing a funeral song for the king of Tyre and tell him this is what the Lord God says: Once you were complete and perfect, full of wisdom and flawless in beauty.
"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 there in Eden, God's garden. You wore all kinds of precious stones: carnelian, topaz, and amethyst; beryl, onyx, and jasper; lapis lazuli, turquoise, and emerald. They were placed in gold mountings and settings using skilled craftsmanship, and were made on the day when you were created.
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 the position of guardian cherub, and I anointed you. You lived on God's holy mountain and you walked 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 You were innocent in everything you did from the day you were created until you were found to be doing evil.
Engkau tak bercela di dalam tingkah lakumu sejak hari penciptaanmu sampai terdapat kecurangan padamu.
16 You were so busy with all your trading schemes that they destroyed you inside, leading you to sin and filling you with violence. So I sent you away in disgrace from God's mountain, and I removed you from your position as guardian cherub from your place 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 You became proud because of your beauty, you ruined your wisdom because you thought you were so wonderful. So I threw you down to the ground and I made sure kings saw what happened to 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 sins and your dishonest trading you have made your sanctuaries unclean. So I had fire come from inside you, and it burned you up. I turned you into ashes on the ground as everybody there watched.
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 know you among the nations are horrified at what happened to you. Disaster has brought you down and you're finished forever.”
Semua di antara bangsa-bangsa yang mengenal engkau kaget melihat keadaanmu. Akhir hidupmu mendahsyatkan dan lenyap selamanya engkau."
20 A message from the Lord came to me, saying,
Lalu datanglah firman TUHAN kepadaku:
21 “Son of man, face towards Sidon and prophesy against her.
"Hai anak manusia, tujukanlah mukamu kepada Sidon dan bernubuatlah melawan dia
22 Tell them this is what the Lord God says: Watch out, Sidon, for I'm condemning you, and I will be vindicated by what happens to you. People will know that I am the Lord when I punish her and show my holy character through her experience.
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 I'm going to send a disease to plague her, and have people killed in her streets. Those who are killed will fall inside the city as the enemy attacks with swords from every side. Then they will know 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 The people of Israel will no longer have to put up with these people who are thorns in their side, painful brambles and sharp thorns who treat Israel with contempt. Then they will know that I am the Lord God.
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 God says: When I bring back the people of Israel from the nations where they've been scattered. I will show my holy character through them as everyone watches. Then they will live in their own country, 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 They will live there in safety, building houses and planting vineyards. They will live there in safety when I punish all those around them who treat them with contempt. Then they will know 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."
