Ezekiel 5
1 “And you, son of man, take a sharp weapon for yourself, take the barber’s razor for yourself, and you have caused [it] to pass over your head, and over your beard, and you have taken weighing scales for yourself, and apportioned them.
TUHAN berkata, "Hai manusia fana, ambillah pedang yang tajam dan pakailah itu untuk mencukur habis janggut dan rambutmu. Kemudian timbanglah rambut itu pada timbangan lalu bagilah menjadi tiga bagian.
2 You burn a third part with fire in the midst of the city, at the fullness of the days of the siege; and you have taken the third part, you strike with a weapon around it; and the third part you scatter to the wind, and I draw out a weapon after them.
Sepertiga harus kaubakar di tengah-tengah kota itu setelah pengepungan berakhir. Sepertiga lagi harus kaubacoki dengan pedangmu sambil mengelilingi kota itu. Dan sepertiga yang terakhir harus kauhamburkan ke udara, lalu Aku akan memburunya dengan pedang-Ku.
3 And you have taken there a few in number—and have bound them in your skirts;
Tinggalkanlah sedikit dari rambut itu dan bungkuslah dalam lipatan jubahmu.
4 and you take of them again, and have cast them into the midst of the fire, and have burned them in the fire—out of it comes forth a fire to all the house of Israel.”
Kemudian ambil sedikit lagi dari rambut itu, lemparkanlah ke dalam api dan biarkan hangus. Dari situ api akan menjalar ke seluruh bangsa Israel."
5 Thus said Lord YHWH: “This [is] Jerusalem, I have set her in the midst of the nations, And the lands [are] around her.
TUHAN Yang Mahatinggi berkata, "Lihat, inilah Yerusalem. Kota ini Kutempatkan di pusat dunia, dengan negara-negara lain di sekelilingnya.
6 And she changes My judgments into wickedness more than the nations, And My statutes more than the lands that [are] around her, For they have kicked against My judgments, And My statutes—they have not walked in them.”
Tetapi Yerusalem telah menolak perintah-Ku dan ternyata lebih jahat daripada bangsa-bangsa lain, bahkan lebih tidak taat daripada negara-negara di sekelilingnya. Yerusalem melanggar perintah-perintah-Ku dan tak mau mentaati hukum-hukum-Ku."
7 Therefore, thus said Lord YHWH: “Because of your multiplying above the nations that [are] around you, You have not walked in My statutes, And you have not done My judgments, According to the judgments of the nations that [are] around you, you have not done.”
TUHAN Yang Mahatinggi berkata, "Hai Yerusalem, dengarlah! Engkau tidak mentaati perintah-perintah-Ku dan hukum-hukum-Ku; engkau lebih membangkang daripada bangsa-bangsa lain di sekelilingmu, dan telah mengikuti adat-istiadat bangsa-bangsa itu.
8 Therefore, thus said Lord YHWH: “Behold, I [am] against you, even I, And I have done judgments in your midst, Before the eyes of the nations.
Maka Aku, TUHAN Yang Mahatinggi, menyatakan bahwa Aku adalah musuhmu. Engkau akan Kuhukum di hadapan bangsa-bangsa lain.
9 And I have done in you that which I have not done, And the like of which I do not do again, Because of all your abominations.
Karena segala perbuatanmu yang Kubenci, pendudukmu akan Kuhukum sehebat yang belum pernah Kulakukan dan tak akan Kulakukan lagi.
10 Therefore fathers eat sons in your midst, And sons eat their fathers, And I have done judgments in you, And have scattered all your remnant to every wind.
Orang tua akan memakan anaknya sendiri dan anak akan memakan orang tuanya. Demikianlah mereka akan Kuhukum, dan yang masih hidup Kuceraiberaikan ke segala jurusan.
11 Therefore, [as] I live,” a declaration of Lord YHWH, “Because you have defiled My sanctuary With all your detestable things, And with all your abominations, Therefore I also diminish you, And My eye does not pity, and I do not spare.
Aku adalah Allah yang hidup, TUHAN Yang Mahatinggi, dan inilah perkataan-Ku: Karena engkau telah mencemarkan Rumah-Ku dengan segala perbuatanmu yang jahat dan menjijikkan, Aku akan menghancurkan engkau tanpa ampun.
12 Your third part dies by pestilence, And are consumed by famine in your midst, And the third part fall by sword around you, And the third part I scatter to every wind, And I draw out a sword after them.
Sepertiga dari pendudukmu akan mati karena wabah penyakit serta bencana kelaparan yang melanda kota. Sepertiga akan dibantai dengan pedang di luar kota, dan sepertiga lagi akan Kuhamburkan ke segala jurusan dan akan Kukejar-kejar dengan pedang.
13 And My anger has been completed, And I have caused My fury to rest on them, And I have been comforted, And they have known that I, YHWH, have spoken in My zeal, In My completing My fury on them.
Engkau akan merasakan kedahsyatan amarah dan amukan-Ku sampai Aku puas. Setelah semua itu terjadi, engkau akan yakin bahwa Aku, TUHAN, telah berbicara kepadamu karena Aku murka atas ketidaksetiaanmu.
14 And I give you for a ruin, And for a reproach among nations that [are] around you, Before the eyes of everyone passing by.
Engkau akan menjadi puing-puing belaka dan bangsa-bangsa di sekelilingmu akan mengejek engkau; setiap orang yang lewat akan menjauhi engkau.
15 And it has been a reproach and a reviling, An instruction and an astonishment, To nations that [are] around you, In My doing judgments in you, In anger and fury, and in furious reproofs, I, YHWH, have spoken.
Bila Aku marah dan geram kepadamu serta menghukummu, semua bangsa di sekelilingmu akan merasa ngeri. Mereka akan mengejekmu dan muak melihatmu.
16 In My sending the evil arrows of famine among them, That have been for destruction, That I send to destroy you, And I am adding famine on you, And I have broken your staff of bread.
Aku akan memusnahkan persediaan makananmu dan membiarkan pendudukmu kelaparan. Mereka akan mengalami pedihnya rasa lapar, seperti anak panah tajam yang menembus dan membinasakan engkau.
17 And I have sent famine and evil beasts on you, And they have bereaved you, And pestilence and blood pass over on you, And I bring a sword in against you, I, YHWH, have spoken!”
Selain bencana kelaparan akan Kudatangkan juga wabah penyakit, kekejaman dan perang untuk membunuh pendudukmu, dan binatang-binatang buas untuk membunuh anak-anak mereka. Aku, TUHAN, telah berbicara."
