Ezekiel 4

1 Thou also sonne of man, take thee a bricke, and lay it before thee, and pourtray vpon it the citie, euen Ierusalem,

١ «أَمَّا أَنْتَ يَا ابْنَ آدَمَ فَخُذْ لِنَفْسِكَ لِبْنَةً وَابْسُطْهَا أَمَامَكَ وَارْسُمْ عَلَيْهَا مَدِينَةَ أُورُشَلِيمَ،

2 And lay siege against it, and builde a fort against it, and cast a mount against it: set the campe also against it, and lay engins of warre against it rounde about.

٢ وَأَقِمْ عَلَيْهَا حِصَاراً، وَابْنِ بُرْجاً، وَانْصِبْ عَلَيْهَا مِتْرَاساً، وَطَوِّقْهَا بِالْجُيُوشِ، وَأَحِطْهَا مِنْ كُلِّ جَانِبٍ بِالْمَجَانِقِ،

3 Moreouer, take an yron pan, and set it for a wall of yron betweene thee and the citie, and direct thy face towarde it, and it shall be besieged, and thou shalt lay siege against it: this shall be a signe vnto the house of Israel.

٣ ثُمَّ خُذْ لِنَفْسِكَ صَاجاً مِنْ حَدِيدٍ وَاجْعَلْهُ سُوراً مِنْ حَدِيدٍ بَيْنَكَ وَبَيْنَ الْمَدِينَةِ، وَثَبِّتْ وَجْهَكَ عَلَيْهَا فَتُصْبِحَ مُحَاصَرَةً وَأَنْتَ تُحَاصِرُهَا، فَتَكُونَ هَذِهِ عَلامَةً لِشَعْبِ إِسْرَائِيلَ.

4 Sleepe thou also vpon thy left side, and lay the iniquitie of the house of Israel vpon it: according to the nomber of the dayes, that thou shalt sleepe vpon it, thou shalt beare their iniquity.

٤ أَمَّا أَنْتَ فَاتَّكِئْ عَلَى جَانِبِكَ الأَيْسَرِ، وَضَعْ عَلَيْهِ إِثْمَ شَعْبِ إِسْرَائِيلَ، إِذْ أَنَّكَ تَحْمِلُ إِثْمَهُمْ عَلَى حَسَبِ عَدَدِ الأَيَّامِ الَّتِي تَتَّكِئُ فِيهَا عَلَيْهِ.

5 For I haue layed vpon thee the yeeres of their iniquitie, according to the nomber of the dayes, euen three hundreth and ninetie dayes: so shalt thou beare the iniquitie of the house of Israel.

٥ فَإِنِّي قَدْ جَعَلْتُ لَكَ عَدَدَ أَيَّامٍ كَعَدَدِ سَنَوَاتِ إِثْمِهِمْ: ثَلاثَ مِئَةٍ وَتِسْعِينَ يَوْماً. فَتَحْمِلُ عِبْءَ إِثْمِ شَعْبِ إِسْرَائِيلَ.

6 And when thou hast accomplished them, sleepe againe vpon thy right side, and thou shalt beare the iniquitie of the house of Iudah fourtie dayes: I haue appointed thee a day for a yeere, euen a day for a yeere.

٦ وَحَالَمَا تُكْمِلُهَا عُدْ فَاتَّكِئْ عَلَى جَانِبِكَ الأَيْمَنِ، وَاحْمِلْ إِثْمَ شَعْبِ يَهُوذَا أَرْبَعِينَ يَوْماً. إِذْ جَعَلْتُ كُلَّ يَوْمٍ مُقَابِلَ سَنَةٍ.

7 Therefore thou shalt direct thy face towarde the siege of Ierusalem, and thine arme shalbe vncouered, and thou shalt prophesie against it.

٧ ثُمَّ ثَبِّتْ وَجْهَكَ نَحْوَ حِصَارِ أُورُشَلِيمَ بِذِرَاعٍ مَكْشُوفَةٍ، وَتَنَبَّأْ عَلَيْهَا،

8 And beholde, I will lay bands vpon thee, and thou shalt not turne thee from one side to another, till thou hast ended the dayes of thy siege.

٨ وَهَا أَنَا أُوْثِقُكَ بِحِبَالٍ لِئَلّا تَتَقَلَّبَ مِنْ جَنْبٍ إِلَى جَنْبٍ حَتَّى تَكْتَمِلَ أَيَّامُ حِصَارِكَ.

9 Thou shalt take also vnto thee wheate, and barley, and beanes, and lentiles, and millet, and fitches, and put them in one vessell, and make thee bread thereof according to the nomber of the dayes, that thou shalt sleepe vpon thy side: euen three hundreth and ninetie dayes shalt thou eate thereof.

٩ أَمَّا أَنْتَ فَخُذْ لِنَفْسِكَ قَمْحاً وَشَعِيراً وَفُولاً وَعَدَساً وَذُرَةً وَكَرْسَنَّةً، وَاعْجِنْهَا فِي وَعَاءٍ وَاحِدٍ، وَاصْنَعْ لِنَفْسِكَ خُبْزاً تَأْكُلُ مِنْهُ ثَلاثَ مِئَةٍ وَتِسْعِينَ يَوْماً كَعَدَدِ الأَيَّامِ الَّتِي تَتَّكِئُ فِيهَا عَلَى جَنْبِكَ.

10 And the meate, whereof thou shalt eate, shalbe by weight, euen twenty shekels a day: and from time to time shalt thou eate thereof.

١٠ وَيَكُونُ وَزْنُ كَمِّيَّةِ الطَّعَامِ الَّتِي تَأْكُلُهَا فِي كُلِّ يَوْمٍ تُعَادِلُ عِشْرِينَ شَاقِلاً (نَحْوَ مِئَتَيْنِ وَأَرْبَعِينَ جِرَاماً). تَأْكُلُ وَجْبَةً وَاحِدَةً فِي الْيَوْمِ.

11 Thou shalt drinke also water by measure, euen the sixt part of an Hin: from time to time shalt thou drinke.

١١ وَتَشْرَبُ الْمَاءَ بِالْكَيْلِ، فَلا يَزِيدُ عَنْ سُدْسِ الهِينِ (نَحْوَ ثُلْثَيْ لِتْرٍ)، تَشْرَبُ مِنْهُ بَيْنَ حِينٍ وَآخَرَ.

12 And thou shalt eate it as barley cakes, and thou shalt bake it in the dongue that commeth out of man, in their sight.

١٢ وَتَأْكُلُهُ كَكَعْكِ الشَّعِيرِ، بَعْدَ أَنْ تَخْبِزَهُ عَلَى مَشْهَدٍ مِنْهُمْ فَوْقَ بِرَازِ الإِنْسَانِ.

13 And the Lord said, So shall the children of Israel eate their defiled bread among the Gentiles, whither I will cast them.

١٣ لأَنَّهُ هَكَذَا سَيَأْكُلُ أَبْنَاءُ إِسْرَائِيلَ خُبْزَهُمُ النَّجِسَ بَيْنَ الأُمَمِ الَّذِينَ أُجْلِيهِمْ إِلَيْهِمْ».

14 Then said I, Ah, Lord God, beholde, my soule hath not bene polluted: for from my youth vp, euen vnto this houre, I haue not eaten of a thing dead, or torne in pieces, neither came there any vncleane flesh in my mouth.

١٤ وَلَكِنِّي قُلْتُ: «آهِ، أَيُّهَا السَّيِّدُ الرَّبُّ، أَنَا لَمْ أُنَجِّسْ نَفْسِي أَبَداً فَمُنْذُ حَدَاثَتِي حَتَّى الآنَ لَمْ آكُلْ مَيْتَةً أَوْ فَرِيسَةً، وَلَمْ يَدْخُلْ فَمِي لَحْمٌ نَجِسٌ».

15 Then he said vnto me, Loe, I haue giuen thee bullockes dongue for mans dongue, and thou shalt prepare thy bread therewith.

١٥ فَقَالَ: «انْظُرْ هَا أَنَا أُعْطِيكَ بَعْرَ الْبَقَرِ لِتَسْتَعِيضَ بِهِ عَنْ بِرَازِ الإِنْسَانِ لِتَصْنَعَ عَلَيْهِ خُبْزَكَ.

16 Moreouer, he said vnto me, Sonne of man, beholde, I will breake the staffe of bread in Ierusalem, and they shall eate bread by weight, and with care, and they shall drinke water by measure, and with astonishment.

١٦ يَا ابْنَ آدَمَ، هَا أَنَا أَبِيدُ مَؤُونَةَ الْخُبْزِ فِي أُورُشَلِيمَ، فَيَأْكُلُونَ الْخُبْزَ بِالْوَزْنِ مَعْجُوناً بِالْغَمِّ، وَيَشْرَبُونَ الْمَاءَ بِالْكَيْلِ مَمْزُوجاً بِالْحَيْرَةِ.

17 Because that bread and water shall faile, they shalbe astonied one with another, and shall consume away for their iniquitie.

١٧ إِذْ يُعْوِزُهُمُ الْخُبْزُ وَالْمَاءُ، وَيَلْجَأُ الْوَاحِدُ إِلَى أَخِيهِ وَقَدِ اعْتَرَتْهُمُ الْحَيْرَةُ فَيَفْنَوْنَ جَمِيعاً بِإِثْمِهِمْ.
