Ezekiel 16

1 Again, the worde of the Lord came vnto me, saying,

١ وَأَوْحَى إِلَيَّ الرَّبُّ بِكَلِمَتِهِ قَائِلاً:

2 Sonne of man, cause Ierusalem to knowe her abominations,

٢ «يَا ابْنَ آدَمَ، أَطْلِعْ أَهْلَ أُورُشَلِيمَ عَلَى أَرْجَاسِهِمْ.

3 And say, Thus saith the Lord God vnto Ierusalem, Thine habitation and thy kindred is of the land of Canaan: thy father was an Amorite, and thy mother an Hittite.

٣ وَقُلْ هَذَا مَا يُعْلِنُهُ السَّيِّدُ الرَّبُّ لأُورُشَلِيمَ: أَصْلُكِ وَمَوْلِدُكِ مِنْ أَرْضِ الْكَنْعَانِيِّينَ. أَبُوكِ أَمُورِيٌّ وَأُمُّكِ حِثِّيَّةٌ.

4 And in thy natiuitie whe thou wast borne, thy nauell was not cut: thou wast not washed in water to soften thee: thou wast not salted with salt, nor swadled in cloutes.

٤ فِي يَوْمِ مَوْلِدِكِ لَمْ يُقْطَعْ حَبْلُ سُرَّتِكِ وَلَمْ تُنَظَّفِي بِمَاءٍ وَلَمْ تُدْلَكِي بِمِلْحٍ، وَلَمْ تُقَمَّطِي.

5 None eye pitied thee to do any of these vnto thee, for to haue compassion vpon thee, but thou wast cast out in the open fielde to the contempt of thy person in ye day that thou wast borne.

٥ لَمْ تَرْأَفْ بِكِ عَيْنٌ أَوْ تَعْطِفْ عَلَيْكِ لِتَصْنَعَ لَكِ شَيْئاً مِنْ هَذَا. بَلْ نُبِذْتِ فِي الصَّحْرَاءِ احْتِقَاراً لَكِ يَوْمَ مَوْلِدِكِ.

6 And when I passed by thee, I saw thee polluted in thine owne blood, and I said vnto thee, whe thou wast in thy blood, Thou shalt liue: euen when thou wast in thy blood, I saide vnto thee, Thou shalt liue.

٦ وَحِينَ مَرَرْتُ بِكِ وَشَهِدْتُكِ مَازِلْتِ مُلَطَّخَةً بِدِمَائِكِ قُلْتُ لَكِ: عِيشِي بِدَمِكِ. نَعَمْ عِيشِي بِدَمِكِ.

7 I haue caused thee to multiplie as the bud of the fielde, and thou hast increased and waxen great, and thou hast gotten excellent ornaments: thy breastes are facioned, thine heare is growen, where as thou wast naked and bare.

٧ وَكَثَّرْتُكِ كَنَبْتِ الْحَقْلِ، فَنَمَيْتِ وَكَبُرْتِ وَبَلَغْتِ عُمْراً صِرْتِ فِيهِ أَجْمَلَ الْجَمِيلاتِ، فَنَهَدَ ثَدْيَاكِ وَنَمَا شَعْرُكِ، وَلَكِنَّكِ كُنْتِ عَارِيَةً مُتَجَرِّدَةً.

8 Nowe when I passed by thee, and looked vpon thee, beholde, thy time was as the time of loue, and I spred my skirtes ouer thee, and couered thy filthines: yea, I sware vnto thee, and entred into a couenant with thee, saith the Lord God, and thou becamest mine.

٨ فَمَرَرْتُ بِكِ وَرَأَيْتُكِ وَإذَا بِكِ قَدْ بَلَغْتِ سِنَّ الْحُبِّ، فَبَسَطْتُ عَلَيْكِ أَطْرَافَ ثَوْبِي، وَسَتَرْتُ عَوْرَتَكِ وَحَلَفْتُ لَكِ وَأَبْرَمْتُ مَعَكِ عَهْداً، فَصِرْتِ لِي، يَقُولُ السَّيِّدُ الرَّبُّ.

9 Then washed I thee with water: yea, I washed away thy blood from thee, and I anointed thee with oyle.

٩ ثُمَّ غَسَّلْتُكِ بِمَاءٍ، وَنَظَّفْتُكِ مِنَ الدَّمِ وَطَيَّبْتُكِ بِالدُّهْنِ.

10 I clothed thee also with broydred worke, and shod thee with badgers skin: and I girded thee about with fine linen, and I couered thee with silke.

١٠ وَكَسَوْتُكِ بِثِيَابٍ مُوَشَّاةٍ وَحَذَوْتُكِ بِنَعْلَيْنِ مِنْ جِلْدِ الدَّلْفِينِ، وَلَفَّعْتُكِ بِالْكَتَّانِ الْفَاخِرِ، وَدَثَّرْتُكِ بِالْحَرِيرِ،

11 I decked thee also with ornaments, and I put bracelets vpon thine handes, and a chaine on thy necke.

١١ وَزَيَّنْتُكِ بِالْحُلِيِّ، إِذْ وَضَعْتُ أَسَاوِرَ فِي يَدَيْكِ وَعَقْداً فِي عُنُقِكِ.

12 And I put a frontlet vpon thy face, and earings in thine eares, and a beautifull crowne vpon thine head.

١٢ وَجَعَلْتُ خِزَامَةً فِي أَنْفِكِ وَقِرْطَيْنِ فِي أُذُنَيْكِ وَإِكْلِيلَ جَمَالٍ عَلَى رَأْسِكِ

13 Thus wast thou deckt with gold and siluer, and thy rayment was of fine linen, and silke, and broydred worke: thou didest eate fine floure, and honie and oyle, and thou wast very beautifull, and thou didest grow vp into a kingdome.

١٣ فَتَزَيَّنْتِ بِالذَّهَبِ وَالْفِضَّةِ، وَكَانَتْ ثِيَابُكِ مِنَ الْكَتَّانِ الْفَاخِرِ وَالْحَرِيرِ وَكُلِّ مَا هُوَ مُوَشّىً. وَأَكَلْتِ السَّمِيذَ وَالْعَسَلَ وَالزَّيْتَ، فَتَمَتَّعْتِ بِأَرْوَعِ الْجَمَالِ حَتَّى صِرْتِ صَالِحَةً لِتَكُونِي زَوْجَةَ مَلِكٍ.

14 And thy name was spred among the heathen for thy beautie: for it was perfite through my beautie which I had set vpon thee, saith the Lord God.

١٤ فَذَاعَ اسْمُكِ بَيْنَ الأُمَمِ لِفَرْطِ جَمَالِكِ لأَنَّهُ اكْتَمَلَ بِفَضْلِ بَهَائِي الَّذِي أَضْفَيْتُهُ عَلَيْكِ، يَقُولُ السَّيِّدُ الرَّبُّ.

15 Nowe thou didest trust in thine owne beautie, and playedst the harlot, because of thy renowne, and hast powred out thy fornications on euery one that passed by, thy desire was to him.

١٥ وَلَكِنَّكِ اعْتَمَدْتِ عَلَى جَمَالِكِ وَزَنَيْتِ اتِّكَالاً عَلَى شُهْرَتِكِ. أَغْدَقْتِ عَهَارَتَكِ عَلَى كُلِّ عَابِرِ سَبِيلٍ رَاغِبٍ فِيكِ

16 And thou didest take thy garments, and deckedst thine hie places with diuers colours, and playedst the harlot thereupon: the like thinges shall not come, neither hath any done so.

١٦ وَأَخَذْتِ بَعْضَ ثِيَابِكِ فَصَنَعْتِ لِنَفْسِكِ مَشَارِفَ لِلأَصْنَامِ مُلَوَّنَةً زَنَيْتِ عَلَيْهَا زِنىً لَمْ يَكُنْ لَهُ مَثِيلٌ وَلَنْ يَكُونَ.

17 Thou hast also taken thy faire iewels made of my golde and of my siluer, which I had giuen thee, and madest to thy selfe images of men, and didest commit whoredome with them,

١٧ وَأَحْضَرْتِ مَا وَهَبْتُكِ مِنْ حُلِيِّ الْجَوَاهِرِ، مِنْ ذَهَبِي وَفِضَّتِي، فَصَنَعْتِ مِنْهَا تَمَاثِيلَ ذُكُورٍ وَزَنَيْتِ بِها (أَيْ عَبَدْتِهَا).

18 And tookest thy broydred garments, and coueredst them: and thou hast set mine oyle and my perfume before them.

١٨ وَأَخَذْتِ ثِيَابَكِ الْمُوَشَّاةَ فَكَسَوْتِهَا بِها، وَوَضَعْتِ أَمَامَهَا دُهْنِي وَبَخُورِي،

19 My meate also, which I gaue thee, as fine floure, oyle, and honie, wherewith I fedde thee, thou hast euen set it before them for a sweete sauour: thus it was, saith the Lord God.

١٩ وَخُبْزِي الَّذِي قَدَّمْتُهُ لَكِ وَالسَّمِيذَ وَالزَّيْتَ وَالْعَسَلَ الَّذِي أَطْعَمْتُكِ، وَقَرَّبْتِهَا أَمَامَهَا كَتَقْدِمَةِ سُرُورٍ، هَكَذَا فَعَلْتِ يَقُولُ السَّيِّدُ الرَّبُّ.

20 Moreouer thou hast taken thy sonnes and thy daughters, whome thou hast borne vnto me, and these hast thou sacrificed vnto them, to be deuoured: is this thy whoredome a small matter?

٢٠ ثُمَّ أَخَذْتِ أَبْنَاءَكِ وَبَنَاتِكِ الَّذِينَ أَنْجَبْتِهِمْ لِي، فَذَبَحْتِهِمْ قَرَابِينَ لَهَا. فَهَلْ كَانَ زِنَاكِ أَمْراً يَسِيراً؟

21 That thou hast slaine my children, and deliuered them to cause them to passe through fire for them?

٢١ قَدْ ذَبَحْتِ أَبْنَائِي وَسَلَّمْتِهِمْ لِلأَوْثَانِ لِيَجُوزُوا فِي النَّارِ قُرْبَاناً لَهَا.

22 And in all thine abominations and whoredomes thou hast not remembred the dayes of thy youth, when thou wast naked and bare, and wast polluted in thy blood.

٢٢ وَفِي جَمِيعِ رَجَاسَاتِكِ وَزِنَاكِ لَمْ تَذْكُرِي أَيَّامَ حَدَاثَتِكِ حِينَ كُنْتِ عَارِيَةً مُتَجَرِّدَةً مُلَطَّخَةً بِدَمِكِ.

23 And beside all thy wickednes (wo, wo vnto thee, saith the Lord God)

٢٣ ثُمَّ مِنْ بَعْدِ كُلِّ شَرِّكِ وَيْلٌ، وَيْلٌ لَكِ يَقُولُ السَّيِّدُ الرَّبُّ

24 Thou hast also built vnto thee an hie place, and hast made thee an hie place in euery streete.

٢٤ شَيَّدْتِ لِنَفْسِكِ مَاخُوراً وَصَنَعْتِ لَكِ أَنْصَاباً فِي كُلِّ سَاحَةٍ.

25 Thou hast built thine hie place at euery corner of the way, and hast made thy beautie to be abhorred: thou hast opened thy feete to euery one that passed by, and multiplied thy whoredome.

٢٥ بَنَيْتِ مُرْتَفَعَتَكِ عِنْدَ نَاصِيَةِ كُلِّ طَرِيقٍ، وَدَنَّسْتِ جَمَالَكِ وَوَهَبْتِ جَسَدَكِ لِكُلِّ عَابِرِ سَبِيلٍ لِتُكْثِرِي مِنْ عَهَارَتِكِ.

26 Thou hast also committed fornication with the Egyptians thy neighbours, which haue great members, and hast encreased thy whoredome, to prouoke me.

٢٦ وَزَنَيْتِ مَعَ أَبْنَاءِ مِصْرَ، جِيرَانِكِ الشَّهْوَانِيِّينَ، وَأَكْثَرْتِ فَوَاحِشَكِ لإِسْخَاطِي.

27 Beholde, therefore I did stretche out mine hand ouer thee, and will diminish thine ordinarie, and deliuer thee vnto the will of them that hate thee, euen to the daughters of the Philistims, which are ashamed of thy wicked way.

٢٧ هَا أَنَا أُعَاقِبُكِ وَأُنْقِصُ مِنْ نَصِيبِكِ وَأُسْلِمُكِ لأَهْوَاءِ عَدُوَّاتِكِ بَنَاتِ الْفِلِسْطِينِيِّينَ اللَّوَاتِي يَخْجَلْنَ مِنْ تَصَرُّفِكِ الْفَاجِرِ.

28 Thou hast played the whore also with the Assyrians, because thou wast insaciable: yea, thou hast played the harlot with them, and yet couldest not be satisfied.

٢٨ وَإِذْ لَمْ تَشْبَعِي زِنىً ارْتَكَبْتِ الْفَوَاحِشَ مَعَ أَبْنَاءِ أَشُورَ مِنْ غَيْرِ أَنْ تَكْتَفِي.

29 Thou hast moreouer multiplied thy fornication from the land of Canaan vnto Caldea, and yet thou wast not satisfied herewith.

٢٩ ثُمَّ أَكْثَرْتِ مِنِ ارْتِكَابِ الْفُجُورِ فِي أَرْضِ الْكَنْعَانِيِّينَ حَتَّى دِيَارِ الْكَلْدَانِيِّينَ، وَمَعَ ذَلِكَ لَمْ تَكْتَفِي.

30 Howe weake is thine heart, saith the Lord God, seeing thou doest all these thinges, euen the worke of a presumptuous whorish woman?

٣٠ مَا أَشَرَّ قَلْبَكِ يَقُولُ السَّيِّدُ الرَّبُّ إِذِ اقْتَرَفْتِ هَذِهِ الْمُوبِقَاتِ كُلَّهَا، فِعْلَ امْرَأَةٍ زَانِيَةٍ حَقِيرَةٍ.

31 In that thou buildest thine hie place in the corner of euery way, and makest thine hie place in euery streete, and hast not bene as an harlot that despiseth a reward,

٣١ فَشَيَّدْتِ مَاخُورَكِ عِنْدَ نَاصِيَةِ كُلِّ طَرِيقٍ، وَأَقَمْتِ مُرْتَفَعَةَ صَنَمِكِ فِي كُلِّ سَاحَةٍ وَلَمْ تَكُونِي كَالزَّانِيَةِ الَّتِي تَقْبِضُ أُجْرَةَ زِنَاهَا، لأَنَّكِ وَهَبْتِ نَفْسَكِ مَجَّاناً احْتِقَاراً لِكُلِّ أُجْرَةٍ.

32 But as a wife that playeth the harlot, and taketh others for her husband:

٣٢ إِذْ كُنْتِ زَوْجَةً فَاسِقَةً أَحَلَّتِ الْغُرَبَاءَ مَوْضِعَ زَوْجِهَا.

33 They giue giftes to all other whores, but thou giuest giftes vnto all thy louers, and rewardest them, that they may come vnto thee on euery side for thy fornication.

٣٣ كُلُّ الزَّانِيَاتِ يَنَلْنَ هَدَايَا مِنَ الرِّجَالِ، أَمَّا أَنْتِ فَأَعْطَيْتِ هَدَايَاكِ لِمُحِبِّيكِ، وَرَشَوْتِهِمْ كَيْ يُقْبِلُوا إِلَيْكِ مِنْ كُلِّ صَوْبٍ لِيَزْنُوا مَعَكِ.

34 And the contrary is in thee from other women in thy fornications, neither the like fornication shall be after thee: for in that thou giuest a rewarde, and no reward is giuen vnto thee, therefore thou art contrary.

٣٤ فَأَنْتِ فِي زِنَاكِ تَخْتَلِفِينَ عَنْ بَقِيَّةِ النِّسَاءِ الزَّانِيَاتِ، إِذْ لَا يَسْعَى أَحَدٌ وَرَاءَكِ لِيَزْنِيَ مَعَكِ بَلْ عَلَى النَّقِيضِ، أَنْتِ تُعْطِينَهُمْ أُجْرَةً لِيَفْسُقُوا مَعَكِ وَلا تَقْبِضِينَ مِنْهُمْ أُجْرَةً.

35 Wherefore, O harlot, heare the worde of the Lord.

٣٥ لِذَلِكَ اسْمَعِي أَيَّتُهَا الزَّانِيَةُ قَضَاءَ الرَّبِّ:

36 Thus sayeth the Lord God, Because thy shame was powred out, and thy filthinesse discouered through thy fornications with thy louers, and with all the idoles of thine abominations, and by the blood of thy children, which thou didest offer vnto them,

٣٦ مِنْ حَيْثُ أَنَّكِ أَنْفَقْتِ مَالَكِ وَكَشَفْتِ عَنْ عُرْيِكِ فِي فَوَاحِشِكِ لِعُشَّاقِكِ وَلِسَائِرِ أَصْنَامِكِ الْمَمْقُوتَةِ، وَمِنْ أَجْلِ دِمَاءِ أَبْنَائِكِ الَّذِينَ قَرَّبْتِهِمْ لَهَا،

37 Beholde, therefore I wil gather all thy louers, with whom thou hast taken pleasure, and all them that thou hast loued, with al them that thou hast hated: I will euen gather them round about against thee, and will discouer thy filthines vnto them, that they may see all thy filthines.

٣٧ هَا أَنَا أَحْشِدُ جَمِيعَ عُشَّاقِكِ الَّذِينَ تَلَذَّذْتِ بِهِمْ، وَجَمِيعَ مَنْ تَلَذَّذتِ بِهِمْ مَعَ كُلِّ الَّذِينَ أَبْغَضْتِهِمْ فَأَجْمَعُهُمْ عَلَيْكِ مِنْ كُلِّ نَاحِيَةٍ، وَأَكْشِفُ عَنْ عُرْيِكِ فَيُشَاهِدُونَ عَوْرَتَكِ كُلَّهَا،

38 And I wil iudge thee after ye maner of them that are harlots, and of them that shead blood, and I wil giue thee the blood of wrath and ielousie.

٣٨ وَأَدِينُكِ كَمَا تُدَانُ الزَّانِيَاتُ وَسَافِكَاتُ الدِّمَاءِ، وَأُوْقِعُ بِكِ عِقَابَ دَمِ سَخَطِي وَغَيْرَتِي،

39 I will also giue thee into their handes, and they shall destroy thine hie place, and shall breake downe thine hie places. they shall strippe thee also out of thy clothes, and shall take thy faire iewels, and leaue thee naked and bare.

٣٩ وَأُسَلِّمُكِ لأَيْدِيهِمْ فَيَهْدِمُونَ مَاخُورَكِ وَمُرْتَفَعَةَ نُصُبِكِ، وَيَسْلِبُونَكِ ثِيَابَكِ وَيَسْتَوْلُونَ عَلَى جَوَاهِرِ زِينَتِكِ وَيَتْرُكُونَكِ عَارِيَةً مُتَجَرِّدَةً،

40 They shall also bring vp a company against thee, and they shall stone thee with stones, and thrust thee through with their swordes.

٤٠ وَيُثِيرُونَ عَلَيْكِ الْجُمُوعَ وَيَرْجُمُونَكِ بِالْحِجَارَةِ وَيُمَزِّقُونَكِ بِسُيُوفِهِمْ.

41 And they shall burne vp thine houses with fire, and execute iudgements vpon thee in the sight of many women: and I will cause thee to cease from playing the harlot, and thou shalt giue no reward any more.

٤١ وَيُحْرِقُونَ بُيُوتَكِ بِالنَّارِ، وَيُنَفِّذُونَ فِيكِ أَحْكَاماً عَلَى مَرْأَى نِسَاءٍ كَثِيرَاتٍ. عِنْدَئِذٍ أَمْنَعُكِ عَنِ الزِّنَى وَلا تَبْذُلِينَ أُجْرَةً بَعْدُ لِلزُّنَاةِ مَعَكِ.

42 So will I make my wrath towarde thee to rest, and my ielousie shall depart from thee, and I will cease and be no more angrie.

٤٢ حِينَئِذٍ أُسَكِّنُ شِدَّةَ غَضَبِي عَلَيْكِ وَأَصْرِفُ عَنْكِ غَيْرَتِي فَأَهْدَأُ وَلا أَسْخَطُ بَعْدُ.

43 Because thou hast not remembred the dayes of thy youth, but hast prouoked me with all these things, behold, therefore I also haue brought thy way vpon thine head, sayeth the Lord God: yet hast not thou had consideration of all thine abominations.

٤٣ وَلأَنَّكِ لَمْ تَذْكُرِي أَيَّامَ حَدَاثَتِكِ، وَإِنَّمَا أَثَرْتِ حَنَقِي بِارْتِكَابِ جَمِيعِ هَذِهِ الْمُوبِقَاتِ، هَا أَنَا بِدَوْرِي أُعَاقِبُكِ أَشَدَّ الْعِقَابِ، يَقُولُ السَّيِّدُ الرَّبُّ، فَلا تَقْتَرِفِينَ هَذِهِ الرَّذِيلَةَ فَوْقَ رَجَاسَاتِكِ كُلِّهَا.

44 Beholde, all that vse prouerbes, shall vse this prouerbe against thee, saying, As is the mother, so is her daughter.

٤٤ هَا إِنَّ كُلَّ مُتَمَثِّلٍ يَقْتَبِسُ هَذَا الْمَثَلَ عَلَيْكِ قَائِلاً: كَمَا تَكُونُ الأُمُّ تَكُونُ ابْنَتُهَا

45 Thou art thy mothers daughter, that hath cast off her husband and her children, and thou art the sister of thy sisters, which forsooke their husbands and their children: your mother is an Hittite, and your father an Amorite.

٤٥ فَأَنْتِ ابْنَةُ أُمِّكِ الَّتِي كَرِهَتْ زَوْجَهَا وَأَبْنَاءَهَا، وَأَنْتِ شَقِيقَةُ أَخَوَاتِكِ اللَّوَاتِي عُفْنَ رِجَالَهُنَّ وَأَبْنَاءَهُنَّ. فَأُمُّكُنَّ حِثِّيَّةٌ وَأَبُوكُنَّ أَمُورِيٌّ.

46 And thine elder sister is Samaria, and her daughters, that dwell at thy left hand, and thy yong sister, that dwelleth at thy right hand, is Sodom, and her daughters.

٤٦ وَأُخْتُكِ الْكُبْرَى هِيَ السَّامِرَةُ الْمُقِيمَةُ مَعَ بَنَاتِهَا إِلَى الشِّمَالِ مِنْكِ، وَأُخْتُكِ الصُّغْرَى هِيَ سَدُومُ الْمُقِيمَةُ مَعَ بَنَاتِهَا إِلَى الْجَنُوبِ مِنْكِ.

47 Yet hast thou not walked after their wayes, nor done after their abominations: but as it had bene a very little thing, thou wast corrupted more then they in all thy wayes.

٤٧ وَلَمْ تَكْتَفِي بِالسُّلُوكِ فِي طُرُقِ فُجُورِهِنَّ وَارْتِكَابِ مِثْلِ أَرْجَاسِهِنَّ وَكَأَنَّ ذَلِكَ قَلِيلٌ عَلَيْكِ بَلْ تَفَوَّقْتِ عَلَيْهِنَّ فَسَاداً فِي جَمِيعِ طُرُقِكِ.

48 As I liue, saith the Lord God, Sodom thy sister hath not done, neither shee nor her daughters, as thou hast done and thy daughters.

٤٨ لِذَلِكَ يَقُولُ السَّيِّدُ الرَّبُّ حَيٌّ أَنَا، إِنَّ سَدُومَ أُخْتَكِ وَبَنَاتِهَا لَمْ يَقْتَرِفْنَ الْمَفَاسِدَ الَّتِي اقْتَرَفْتِهَا أَنْتِ وَبَنَاتُكِ.

49 Beholde, this was the iniquitie of thy sister Sodom, Pride, fulnesse of bread, and aboundance of idlenesse was in her, and in her daughters: neither did shee strengthen the hande of the poore and needie.

٤٩ أَمَّا إِثْمُ أُخْتِكِ سَدُومَ، فَإِنَّهَا مَعَ بَنَاتِهَا طَغَتْ عَلَيْهَا الْغَطْرَسَةُ وَالتُّخْمَةُ وَسَلامُ الاطْمِئْنَانِ، وَلَمْ تُغِثِ الْفَقِيرَ وَالْمِسْكِينَ.

50 But they were hautie, and committed abomination before mee: therefore I tooke them away, as pleased me.

٥٠ وَتَشَامَخْنَ وَارْتَكَبْنَ الرِّجْسَ أَمَامِي، فَمَحَوْتُهُنَّ عِنْدَمَا شَاهَدْتُ ذَلِكَ.

51 Neither hath Samaria committed halfe of thy sinnes, but thou hast exceeded them in thine abominations, and hast iustified thy sisters in all thine abominations, which thou hast done.

٥١ وَلَمْ تُخْطِئِ السَّامِرَةُ نِصْفَ خَطَايَاكِ، بَلْ كُنْتِ أَكْثَرَ رَجَاسَاتٍ مِنْهُنَّ، فَجَعَلْتِ أُخْتَيْكِ تَبْدُوَانِ أَكْثَرَ صَلاحاً مِنْكِ، مِنْ جَرَّاءِ جَمِيعِ رَجَاسَاتِكِ الَّتِي اقْتَرَفْتِهَا

52 Therefore thou which hast iustified thy sisters, beare thine owne shame for thy sinnes, that thou hast committed more abominable then they which are more righteous then thou art: be thou therefore confounded also, and beare thy shame, seeing that thou hast iustified thy sisters.

٥٢ فَاحْمِلِي أَنْتِ أَيْضاً عَارَكِ، إِذْ جَعَلْتِ الْقَضَاءَ فِي صَالِحِ أُخْتَيْكِ لِفَرْطِ مَعَاصِيكِ الَّتِي تَفَوَّقْتِ بِها عَلَى رَجَاسَتِهِنَّ. قَدْ أَصْبَحْنَ أَكْثَرَ بِرّاً مِنْكِ، فَاخْزَيْ وَاحْمِلِي عَارَكِ إِذْ قَدْ بَرَّرْتِ أَخَوَاتِكِ.

53 Therefore I will bring againe their captiuitie with the captiuitie of Sodom, and her daughters, and with the captiuitie of Samaria, and her daughters: euen the captiuitie of thy captiues in the middes of them,

٥٣ وَلَكِنِّي سَأَرُدُّ سَبْيَهُنَّ: سَبْيَ سَدُومَ وَبَنَاتِهَا، وَسَبْيَ السَّامِرَةِ وَبَنَاتِهَا، وَسَبْيَ مَسْبِيِّيكِ فِي جُمْلَتِهِمْ.

54 That thou mayest beare thine owne shame, and mayest bee confounded in all that thou hast done, in that thou hast comforted them.

٥٤ لِكَيْ تَحْمِلِي عَارَكِ وَتَخْجَلِي مِمَّا ارْتَكَبْتِ عِنْدَمَا أَصْبَحْتِ تَعْزِيَةً لَهُنَّ.

55 And thy sister Sodom and her daughters shall returne to their former state: Samaria also and her daughters shall returne to their former state, when thou and thy daughters shall returne to your former state.

٥٥ فَأَخَوَاتُكِ: سَدُومُ وَبَنَاتُهَا، وَالسَّامِرَةُ وَبَنَاتُهَا يَعُدْنَ إِلَى سَابِقِ عَهْدِهِنَّ، وَكَذِلكَ أَنْتِ وَبَنَاتُكِ أَيْضاً.

56 For thy sister Sodom was not heard of by thy report in the day of thy pride,

٥٦ إِنَّ اسْمَ أُخْتِكِ سَدُومَ لَمْ يَرِدْ ذِكْرُهُ عَلَى فَمِكِ فِي يَوْمِ غَطْرَسَتِكِ،

57 Before thy wickednes was discouered, as in that same time of the reproch of the daughters of Aram, and of all the daughters of the Philistims round about her which despise thee on all sides.

٥٧ قَبْلَ انْكِشَافِ شَرِّكِ. وَهَا أَنْتِ قَدْ صِرْتِ مَثَارَ تَعْيِيرِ بَنَاتِ أَرَامَ وَجَمِيعِ الْمُحِيطِينَ بِها مِنْ بَنَاتِ فِلِسْطِينَ وَكُلِّ اللَّوَاتِي حَوْلَكِ مِمَّنِ احْتَقَرْنَكِ.

58 Thou hast borne therefore thy wickednesse and thine abomination, saith the Lord.

٥٨ لَقَدْ حَمَلْتِ عِقَابَ فُجُورِكِ وَرَجَاسَاتِكِ، يَقُولُ الرَّبُّ.

59 For thus saith the Lord God, I might euen deale with thee, as thou hast done: when thou didest despise the othe, in breaking the couenant.

٥٩ لِهَذَا سَأَصْنَعُ بِكِ كَمَا صَنَعْتِ، إِذِ ازْدَرَيْتِ بِالْقَسَمِ عِنْدَمَا نَكَثْتِ الْعَهْدَ.

60 Neuerthelesse, I wil remember my couenant made with thee in ye dayes of thy youth, and I wil confirme vnto thee an euerlasting couenant.

٦٠ أَمَّا أَنَا فَأَذْكُرُ عَهْدِي مَعَكِ فِي أَيَّامِ حَدَاثَتِكِ، وَأَعْقِدُ مَعَكِ عَهْداً أَبَدِيًّا،

61 Then thou shalt remember thy wayes, and be ashamed, when thou shalt receiue thy sisters, both thy elder and thy yonger, and I will giue them vnto thee for daughters, but not by thy couenat.

٦١ فَتَذْكُرِينَ عِنْدَئِذٍ طُرُقَكِ حِينَ تَسْتَقْبِلِينَ أُخْتَيْكِ: الْكُبْرَى وَالصُّغْرَى كِلْتَيْهِمَا، وَأَجْعَلُهُمَا كَبِنْتَيْنِ لَكِ، إِنَّمَا لَيْسَ ذَلِكَ بِفَضْلِ عَهْدِكِ.

62 And I wil establish my couenant with thee, and thou shalt knowe that I am the Lord,

٦٢ فَأُقِيمُ عَهْدِي مَعَكِ فَتُدْرِكِينَ أَنِّي أَنَا الرَّبُّ،

63 That thou mayest remember, and be ashamed, and neuer open thy mouth any more: because of thy shame when I am pacified toward thee, for all that thou hast done, saith the Lord God.

٦٣ لِكَيْ تَتَذَكَّرِي فَتَخْجَلِي وَلا تَفْتَحِي فَمَكِ مِنْ بَعْدُ بِسَبَبِ خِزْيِكِ، حِينَ أَغْفِرُ لَكِ كُلَّ مَا ارْتَكَبْتِ مِنْ شَرٍّ يَقُولُ السَّيِّدُ الرَّبُّ».
